`13.Jul.2008` Amigaworld.net (Forum)	MorphOS: OS4Emu 2.0 Ilkka Lehtoranta's wrapper OS4Emu allows running some AmigaOS 4 programs under MorphOS. In version 2.0, the following changes have come about: Whereas 64-bit DOS calls are supported under MorphOS 1.x in principle, but the file size is limited to 2 GB, native 64-bit DOS calls are used now under MorphOS 2.x AltiVec support under MorphOS 2.x Bug fixes in the ELF loader Completion of the Picasso96 emulation by means of the function p96WritePixelArray() (snx) (Translation: cad) [News message: 13.

`12.Jul.2008` Amiga Future (Webseite)	MorphOS: Hu-Go! 1.3 Hu-Go! emulates the game console TurboGrafX-16 which is also known as PC Engine (screenshot). The MorphOS port by Kelly Samel is now available in version 1.3. Changes: Clones Ambient resolution in full screen + Overlay Audio channels only allocated while emulation is running Added compact mode Added BG pattern toggle Added video sync option Cleaner sound channel termination Shortened the commodity description line Fixed MUI colors to work with most configs Added rompath selector Made gui resizable and fixed spacing Added 1 and 2 player joypad configs Added Scanline mode Several bugs fixed that were causing lock ups A few more premade HCD files added to archive (snx) (Translation: dr) [News message: 12.

`12.Jul.2008`	Hyperion announces AmigaOS 4.1 Press release: Antwerp, Belgium - 11 July, 2008. Hyperion Entertainment is very pleased to announce that Amiga OS 4.1 has gone into final testing and is scheduled for release mid-Q3/2008. Building on the solid foundations of Amiga OS 4.0, Amiga OS 4.1 introduces a wealth of substantial new functionality which is a prerequisite for the deployment of industry standard applications on the Amiga platform. State-of-the-art applications such as modern web-browsers, productivity software or digital imaging software typically operate on large datasets with a corresponding memory footprint which rapidly outstrips the physical memory of any computer system. Amiga OS 4.1 offers intelligent memory paging and uses transparent disk based memory - but only when you need it. Sophisticated media content creation packages, multi media applications such as video players and 3D games have sparked a revolution in storage technology with hard-drive capacities now reaching the terabyte range. Amiga OS 4.1 introduces an all new filesystem, JXFS, the fastest and most robust filesystem available for the Amiga platform, with support for drives and partitions of multiple terabytes. Graphics cards too have become increasingly powerful and versatile. Amiga OS 4.1 implements 3D hardware accelerated Porter/Duff image composition which is deeply integrated into the system. The upside is not only that the Amiga OS 4.1 user-interface offers unprecedented functionality and customization options such as transparent windows with arbitrary shapes. The use of a compositing engine also results in totally flicker-free screen-updates. Building on this compositing engine is Amiga OS 4.1's implementation of the "Cairo" device-independent 2D rendering library which has become a de facto industry standard and is used in applications as diverse as Firefox 3, Java/ClassPath's SWING and even Open Office. With these new features, Amiga OS 4.1 paves the way for countless exciting possibilities for the Amiga platform. Indeed, Amiga OS 4.1 is not only the most advanced AmigaOS incarnation to date, it is also the best way to reacquaint yourself with times when computing was fun! A non-exhaustive list of key new functionality of Amiga OS 4.1: Intelligent memory paging Hardware compositing engine (Radeon R1xx and R2xx family) Implementation of the "Cairo" device-independent 2D rendering library Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP) support for greater digital camera compatibility JXFS filesystem with the support for drivers and partitions of multiple terabyte size Improved Workbench functionality New and improved DOS functionality (full 64 bit support, universal notification support, automatic expunge and reload of updated disk resources) Improved 3D hardware accelerated screen-dragging Reworked AmiDock with true transparency Reworked Warp3D Radeon drivers with new functionality And much, much more. Required hardware: AmigaOne Required graphics card for hardware compositing: Radeon 1xx or Radeon 2xx Recommend graphics card: Radeon 9250 Amiga OS 4.1 will ship in a cardboard package (box preview) and will be distributed world-wide by Acube Systems Srl. Details on pricing and availability will be forthcoming. Screenshots: Beneath a Steel Sky Transparent windows New Workbench features DvPlayer (cg) (Translation: snx) [News message: 12.

`08.Jul.2008` Amiga Future (Webseite)	MorphOS: Lucy 2.22 With version 2.22 of the transparency patch Lucy for MorphOS 2.0 you can now leave out single windows by theit taks titles. You can also leave out windows without names like AmiNetRadio. (snx) (Translation: dr) [News message: 08. Jul. 2008, 13:01] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]
