Terriblefire TF1260 Accelerator for the Amiga 1200

Schön das Sie wieder da sind. Ich wünsche ihnen ein sehr schönen Abend noch.
Ein schön Gruß aus Das schöne Berlin von Ralf
Mach weiter so

Wow 😮 amazing speed 😮

Wow that's a great comparison. Nice side by side view.

It seems only fair your get "thanked more than once" 😉

Oh nice. Got a TF1230 recently and really loving it.

I think I remember reading from somewhere that you can't close trapdoor when you use TF1260. Is this still a thing?

Hiya Maddi ☺️ Ah good to see that gorgeous 1200 and that new card is a nice bit of kit indeed. Love the game, the demo and the music is always a treat to hear as it showed off it’s capabilities very well indeed.

Glad Rich got his new card even if his thank you was a bit understated but it was all in good fun and l was very happy to see Mr Neelix, (who l know takes a very active roll in your filming plans whether you like it or not 😂), popping in to say hello to us all.

Great upload as usual Maddi and all the best to you, Rich, Mr. Neelix and everyone there ☺️

I also call "ACA" the one for my A500. Thanks for working hard in giving us more videos!!😁

Love the blue case on that Amiga 12

Does it help with creative endeavours such as
Dpaint
Lightwave
Tracker
Video stuff
?

How good to hear from you again . Does the terrible fire have on board memory thanks

nice card maddi 😄i was eyeing one of these on steve's site the other day just hovering over the buy button .. maybe in a few months ill get one ive spent alot this year and the back end of last year already on a new case new keycaps and the indivision mk3 ..

Gratz with the card. The demo run to fast or wrong speed.

Hey Maddi - The reason for the IDE not working is because the cable is too long. I have the exact card, and the exact issue. It will work and it will work MUCH faster with a shorter cable.... it has to be as short as possible (I have to buy 30cm cables and shorten them as far as i could. I ended up having my SDCard coming out the rear under the floppy. When using it too, you won't get your IDE light, there are fixes but it needs soldering and i get back when any fix needs one :)

I see you have an LC060, same as I have. Do you find much that won't work because of the lack of the FPU?
I don't think the TF1260 can boot off the internal IDE without a ROM upgrade. You need to have EIDE drivers there at boot time for it to work? I think (and this is from memory) that KS3.2.2 might support it natively.
(I haven't played much with my 1260 as I'm still working on a "custom" case for my 1200)

Your Nexus 7 demo does the same as my TF1260 - it crashes at the same part.

Best thing you can do is to upgrade that CPU to a full 060. I remember noticing a significant speed increase when I installed an 50MHz 68882 into my Blizzard A1230 at uni, this is because the math*.library's are written to use a hw FPU if one is present. I don't have them now, wish I'd kept them.

Hello, lovely voice as usual :) so is this like an aca500+?

Hi, a fast turbo card, but an FPU is mandatory for the AGA Amigas. There are many nice demos (TBL) that require an FPU. Best regards 👍😘

The Amiga 1200 IDE port will work as usual, but the TF1260 fast IDE controller needs a driver to be installed in order to be used. So if you want to boot from the accelerator port, you will need a modified Kickstart ROM. Or initially boot from floppy with the driver and then a reboot to enable it.

I met TerribleFire at Revision and bonded over Amigas and the Belgian beer dispenser, I must get one of these for me some day

Wow great video but I’m amazed with the Amiga accelerator card scene in 2023. Also, thank God I found out about retro passion. I think I’m about to buy my very first original refurbished Amiga.❤

I have a Blizzard PPC with 040 in my towered A1200, I'm happy with it, but if it should ever fail, a TF 1260 might be a good replacement

I got some kickstart ROMs that boot from the IDE from the TF1260. it is about 3X faster than the A1200 IDE.

You didn't even take a short break and worship the holy 060 for a few seconds before plugging it in! Jokes aside, nice video! ;)

i figured that all software will be written for stocks, that not even 040 wont save you from garbage software. so as every serious gamer i bought pentium. LAN every day
