On my iMac 3,06 GHz Outrun is extremely slow since 0.131u2 (or didn't I notice it earlier?). Is there anything I can try or is this known?

I can't reproduce this on Linux x64 (Opteron 285 @ 2,6 GHz). Just tested outrun with 0.131u3 and it runs at 100% all the time... this means that _IF_ there's a problem, it must be related to your platform (which I wouldn't expect) or system. How do other games/drivers run?

Yeah, I don't know of anything that would have changed for Outrun in u2 (or at all recently really).

not just outrun. Super Hang On also. ATI Radeon is more slow on XP (25% in some games) and Vista is normal speed. may video driver ? Kent Clark and GMC2. Is ATI your video card ?

Augusto, I don't have any problems with those games... I said I can NOT reproduce the speed issues that KC has on his iMac  . I use an Nvidia 8800 GT GPU, but video is not the culprit anyway, because even with "-video soft" I get 100% speed (also in full screen).

In Windows XP with ATI Radeon HD 3450 have problems in speed, but in Vista is OK. Not problem with sdlmame.

Yes, I have a ATI 4850! I thought this video card is the fastest ever in iMacs - even fast then a Nvidia 8800GT!?

Super Hang on is also verv very slow. Even with auto skip frames and video soft (instead of OpenGL).

Hmm. Outrun indeed runs like crap on my Mac Mini (2.53 GHz Core 2 Duo + NVidia OpenGL). It's fine on slower Windows and Linux machines though, so probably we've angered Apple's flakey compiler again somehow.

Kent Clark the Radeon HD 4850 is more fast of than 8800 GT in PC. RB is see a machine (P4 2GH) running sdlmame with the follow speed Outrun =25% Starblade = 40% (that ?)
