   This should really go to advocacy, but the chunky data has a bit of an
advantage for the manipulation behind the texture-mapping. But there's no
other advantage that is considered when it comes to 3D texture-mapping
though. As for possibility or impossibility, that is moot. These systems
are all Wolf3D or DOOM possible with a half decent framerate though I
would definitely leave those slower 68000 processors out of the debate for
speed. As for those who are looking for some impressive Amiga texture-mapped
games, holdon to your horses, it looks like they are comming doing different
and new things with texture-mapped 3D. And no, they aren't floppy only
do dads.
