MorphOS: SDL 2.0
SDL ('Simple DirectMedia Layer') provides a platform independent API for game developers. The MorphOS port of the 1.x series of SDL has been maintained by Ilkka 'itix' Lehtoranta as powersdl.library so far.

The new 2.x generation of SDL (list of improvements) will be distributed for MorphOS as sdl2.library. The current release is based on SDL 2.0.3. It is currently lacking 3D support and some less important interfaces are not implemented yet. Additionally, only sdl2_image.library has been ported so far, sdl2_mixer.library is currently being worked on (sub libraries from powersdl.library are not compatible with sdl2.library).

SDL 2.0 requires MorphOS 3.8, so far no game ports using the new library have been released.

Datatype: WarpJPEG 45.12 and WarpDTPrefs 45.7
Oliver Roberts has updated his Warp-datatype for JPEG-graphics as well as the corresponding preferences programm WarpDTPrefs. Under AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS it now offers Altivec support which makes the JPEG-decoding at least one and a half times faster compared with version 45.11.

If under MorphOS there is also a higher decoding speed compared with the original datatype of the operating system is not known yet. The original datatype also supports Altivec.

Changes:
  • Added AltiVec speed optimizations for the OS4 and MorphOS versions making decoding speed of baseline images 1.5x faster on a G4 and 1.9x faster on a PA6T, with fancy upsampling off, on average. With fancy upsampling on, the AltiVec speed gain is even greater - 1.9x faster on a G4 and 2.3x faster on a PA6T. These optimizations can be toggled off/on using the new USE_ALTIVEC setting
  • Huffman decoder in PowerPC versions is now 5-10% faster
  • Reintegrated higher quality fancy upsampling smoothing feature from IJG jpeglib v6b which had not been present since WarpJPEG 45.5 due to its removal from IJG jpeglib v7 and higher
  • MorphOS and WarpOS versions recompiled with VBCC 0.9d
  • Added new set of benchmarks for OS4 (benchmark updates for other platforms suspended until my A1200 motherboard has been repaired)

MorphOS 3.8 public release with Sam460 and 4K support
Press release: The MorphOS development team is proud to announce the public release of MorphOS 3.8, which introduces support for ACube´s Sam460 series of mainboards and numerous Radeon graphics cards from AMD´s X1000 and HD series. In addition to various performance improvements related to the Quark kernel, Exec, 3D graphics and video playback, MorphOS 3.8 also adds the ability to use state-of-the-art 4K displays in their native resolution. For a more extensive overview of the included changes, please read our release notes.

As usual, existing MorphOS users can update to the latest release entirely for free. Sam460 owners who are interested to register MorphOS for their system will be able to do so for 49 EUR.

We strongly urge new users to carefully read our installation and troubleshooting guides before they attempt to install MorphOS for the first time. Existing users can upgrade via the familiar procedure but are encouraged to read the guides as well. MorphOS 3.8 is available for download in our files section. (cg) (Translation: dr)

AmigaOS 4.1: AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition ISO images for download
Press release: Brussels, May 14, 2015

We at Hyperion Entertainment CVBA are more than thrilled about the overwhelming success our customers made out of AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition! Thank you!

Actually the success is so great, causing especially the supply of AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition for Classic to dry up during the last weeks and some of your preferred dealers even ran out of stock already, which is of course unacceptable!

In order to remedy this drawback, Hyperion Entertainment CVBA commissioned the production of another batch of AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition for Classic, which will be available to and from dealers before the end of May - yes, 2015 ;) So if you did not get a copy yet or want another one for your shelf, place your preorder at your favorite dealer now!

Good news for interested A3000 owners: of course we took advantage of this opportunity and fixed the Kicklayout to allow proper booting on A3000 machines without the need for a special bootdisk.

And also some good news for all existing AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition owners: with immediate effect the CD images of your registered AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition version(s) are available in the restricted download area. If not done already, please log in yourself and register your copies by entering the serial numbers in the registration form. We hope we eliminated in this way the fear of a broken CD some of you expressed.

In closing, thank you all again for making the huge success of AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition possible in the first place! This is the best support you can give us for developing AmigaOS, so let's continue to stick together :-) (cg) (Translation: dr)
