Pity the poor #x86 programmer. One of the world's most arcane CPU architectures is about to get even stranger. (t r h) #Byte #ByteMagazine #Anno1997 #MMX2 #3DNow #EMMI

Mission on: the river

And this is my 3d scene based on River Raid (Reflexive). You are flying along the river. And this is also simple arcade. From age of first three dimensional games. And first three dimensional accelerators. I like how these games looks. It is some unique visual. For example Turok NightDive studios

@fuchsiii @kaia @puniko wrong, Efficieon did #amd64, #SSE3 & #3Dnow!

You know that you’re up to no good when you write Enhanced #3DNow! #assembly in 2023: https://objfw.nil.im/artifact?name=43a6889a805b162b&ln=102-154 #objfw

Doesn’t it look beautiful? ;)

(Yes, yes, I know about #SSE and that will come next. But the machine I’m writing this for has no SSE (Duron 750 with a #Voodoo 2/3/5 (depending on what I feel like)). And with SSE it’s boring, the entire vector fits in one register with SSE and the entire matrix fits in half the register set with SSE.)
