Next-generation 3D rendering performance with "Maggie"
Apollo Team, creators of the Vampire line of FPGA-based Amiga accelerators and compatibles, just published an impressive 3D graphics demo.
"Maggie" is a 3D unit and truecolor hardware texturing engine with zbuffer and shading, that is implemented in the CYCLONE 5 FPGA based models of the Vampire family. After presenting a couple of nice 2D demos of scaling and blending, Apollo Team has now uploaded a 3D demo showing Maggie's 3D features in action, running smoothly in what appears to be a 1280x720px screenmode created by Vampire's SuperAGA video system.
