• 64k cracktro Amiga OCS/ECS Menace Cracktro by void
• Quote:

  To my knowledge the A500+ is not affected by the design limitations you mentioned.

  
  
  Amiga 500+ has 1m chip ram standard, no slow/fast. Trapdoor memory will be chipram, as far as I know, not fast.

  And the Amiga 68000 OCS / ECS is also A2000 and A600 where the real Fast ram is more popular.

  
  
  It is? I don't think A2000s were ever very popular among sceners, especially not with expansions, because they're just too expensive.
  I had an A600 myself, and never expanded it, because 1 mb chip was all I needed.
  
  I just think any kind of OCS/ECS machine with fast mem was quite uncommon, and certainly would not have been a target of cracktros in the 80s/early 90s.

• I am talking about trapdoor memory expansions of course. Sidecar memory could be fast. But such configurations are extremely rare.

• 64k cracktro Amiga OCS/ECS Menace Cracktro by void
• Quote:

  The cracktro requires 512 KB of real Fast ram (memory connected directly to the cpu bus, as opposed to the so called slow ram).

  
  
  But why?
  I mean, apparently you are aware of 'slow ram', so I assume you know that due to design limitations, real fast ram is not possible on an Amiga 500/500+ without modifications to the motherboard.
  Getting back to the comments above: no cracktro from the 'golden era' of Amiga 500 required 'real' fast ram, and they ran in 1 frame, just on a common unmodified 512k chip, 512k chip + 512k slow or 1m chip config.

• demo Amiga AGA Brutalism by Capsule
• Brutalism is making a demo as great as this, and only ending up 6th place.

• demo Atari 7800 1E78 by Desire [web]
• Nice 3D engine!
  Also, really nice music given the limitations!

• 64k Amiga OCS/ECS Coda by Abyss [web]
• Very nice!
  The effects reminded me of recent C64 demos, but given some extra Amiga polish.
  Nice music as well, and I like the graphics, especially the last pic.
