Mom, can we have AWS S3 bucket? No, we already have AWS S3 bucket at home.

..counting the seconds until I have to explain to some random weirdo on the interwebs, that the Espressigo was a legitimate product sold by SGI in Germany ☕

@me_@sueden.social intended as gift, but you could also order one for DM ~1800
Looks like we can soon emulate an m68k Silicon Graphics IRIS 3130 to run the GL2 operating system

GTA Vice City on #IRIX progress 🌴
GTA now also runs on IRIX 5.3 😆
Quick side project.. multi stunt car racer.. now on IRIX :D
SGI Octane users: Don't forget your Ibuprofen ™️ 😆
A big thank you to everyone for 3000 followers! ❤️
Now that's a nice Discreet Flame video editing setup
💸 Count the dollars 💸
Weather report: Cloudy with rain.
#irix GTA3
Email is dead.. they said..
But I didn't get that memo 🤔
Replying to
GTA3 on IRIX: Street now renders as it should with all textures and has reflection of lights. Unfortunately this comes with a hard performance impact without shaders. Trees look OK too now. Also added sound, you can now listen to radio stations and hear the sirens 🚓 🚨
Smol SGI-logo shaped snack, while you wait for 'Requickstarting ELF files..' to complete on your Indy 😋

OK now it's better with big endian byte swap
Compiling apps on the SGI Fuel with just one MIPS R14k 600 MHz CPU isn't fun 💤
It takes 14 minutes to compile the 'Second Reality' demo 🥱
Now with distcc and remote sgi-mips-irix6.5 cross compiler on two remote x86_64 VMs with just 4 cores assigned to each, it takes only 40 seconds!! ⚡
This just arrived in my mail! ❤️
Thanks @karpour@mstdn.social !
Now I can read how to use my SGI Indigo2 IMPACT R10000 workstation(s)! 😎

@fergycool@mastodon.social Needs at least Odyssey V10. Best on Onyx 4 with FireGL. I have not tested it on O2 CRM, but I doubt it will be playable :(
Replying to
@elbosso@mastodon.social this is a remake of the original Stunt Car Racer. See readme for the history of the project. There's also a link where you can play it in the browser with other people over the internet: https://github.com/retro-foundry/multistuntcar
Replying to
@BrunoLevy01@fosstodon.org it's using GL for rendering. It's not the original game, it's from this simple version which also runs in a browser (link to online version in readme). I removed shaders to make it work on OpenGL 1.2

Replying to
@yngmar@social.tchncs.de LOL yes, getting the sgi-mips cross-compiler to work was quite an adventure 😆
But now I finally have a nice distcc VM I can simply copy to any of the x86 servers in the rack running 24/7 👍
Replying to
@raster@retro-gaiden.com needed some big endian adjustments, removed GL shaders and the GLM dependency.
Replying to
@Kroc@oldbytes.space would be much slower. some things can also be done with fixed function pipelines.
Replying to
@Kroc@oldbytes.space so far I only tested GTA3 on a 600 MHz MIPS R14000 Fuel with V10 Odyssey gfx, and on Octane2 2x300 MHz R12000 with V12 gfx
Replying to
@fl3x0@infosec.exchange it was a texture issue and has been fixed now (see thread). but also shaders are not available on this old OpenGL 1.2 SGI-IRIX workstation.
Replying to
@stdevel@chaos.social I did not measure FPS yet, but without scaling it runs surprisingly fluid. Absolutely did not expect this! Just picked up Misty, dropped her at Luigis club in the red light district and finished Mission 1 😆
Replying to
@aap@mastodon.sdf.org ooh :D well, I took the OpenGL 3 stuff and removed the shaders for OpenGL 1.2 compatibility on SGI/IRIX.
Replying to
@trodrigues@icosahedron.website there was a d3d and OpenGL 3.x backend in librw. I have added a new one for OpenGL 1.2 and removed shaders, because we don't have shaders on SGI/IRIX
Replying to
@davidseidl@mstdn.social Octane is already heavy for a workstation, but Onyx (1) which also classifies as "deskside" is very high on the list.
Replying to
@restorante LOL 😆 must be a cached value in on your mastodon instance. already at 3008 :)
Replying to
Yes! No longer crashes when you start a game!
