News Flash: Daedalus R7's Bug Has Been Fixed

Daedalus Speed is Power!


StrmnNrmn's Daedalus R7 seems to be a series of ups and downs. First, we were given the good news on how much the speed has increased, Justin B. even had it in bold letters on his previous article. But there was also the piece of bad news about a persistent bug that made Mario 64 unplayable. Like I said, a series of ups and downs, so you know what's coming.

Just recently, StrmnNrmn announced in his blog that this nasty bug has already been fixed. He said that it was "due to very rare situations where the trace recorder would exit a trace when there was still a branch delay instruction pending. This caused the fragment generator to inadvertently skip the branch instruction, causing the odd behaviour I was seeing."

He indicated a 20%-25% increase in overall speed this time. Given that he hasn't yet implemented all the optimizations he has lined up for the R7.

the measurement of hertz is only how many times per second something happens and is approprietly applicable in any instance where that measurement is needed, including fps. and although eyes do not see in fps as we normally would think, it is physically impossible for the eye to see contunuously, as such, there is a minimum fps that the eye needs to maintain the illusion of fluid motion. the difference between interlaced and progressive is also not the same as the difference between 30 and 60 fps. interlaced video only displays every other line. progressive video shows the entire picture which is why it is associated with double the framerate of interlaced which is about 30fps. it is not actually 60 fps.

 » another 25% speed increase already?
if strmnnrmn pulls off a few more of these speed increases we could have more games running at 20fps
