@TheMagicSN
Ah, some guy. I was really interested in doing the OS4 port of SiN back in the 2010s. Anyway, back to Wipeout.

IANAL, but this is what I have been told. If it's not true then all the better.

From what I've heard their license for SiN expired a long time ago.

FAKK2 is not open source. Only the game code was released, which is only useful if you want to create mods. Without the engine (which is not vanilla-Quake3), it's useless for creating ports.

Also due to the lack of moderation amigaworld.net attracted people who got banned from other forums for various reasons. This helped to create the current forum culture over there.

I feel like something is lost in translation, because I never said anything like "harassing people is the solution to the lack of moderation". I'm not exactly a wordsmith, there's no need to read between the lines. I say what I mean and I mean what I say.

So you say aw.net was fine before he appeared? Give me a break.

I have to defend friend MEGA, he is a symptom of the problem, not the cause. Threads were derailed into endless arguments between the same few people long before his appearance.

This is what you get when a forum is completely unmoderated.

Re: Discord on AmigaOS

The Discord TOS explicitly forbids 3rd party clients, so you'll have a higher risk of getting caught by their spam filter if you use one. AFAIK it's not a permaban though, so if this happens you should also be able to contact Discord support, explain what happened and get your account unlocked.
What makes me more uneasy is that you have to send your username, password and token as plain text over the wire to this IRC bridge.

This is interesting, an IRC to Discord proxy makes sense for old machines. For a native client there are a few 3rd party ones written in C++, some of them use Qt, which might be useful for OS4:

Re: Release 4.1 [460LE vs A1222]: The Price of Admission
Quite a regular
Quite a regular


FPS is not linear, to compare performance frame times:
X5000: 1000 / 260 = 3,846
Sam 460: 1000 / 34 = 29,412
Based on these numbers the Sam is about 7,6 times slower in that test.

@Spectre660
This will sound far fetched, but hear me out. Could it be that the PowerPC 460EX is not as fast as the P5020 / P5040?

@kas1e
I'm probably biased because WinUAE is the reason I stuck around a bit longer compared to MorphOS, which a the time didn't run well in QEMU, but I digress.
To clarify I'm not talking about the fanatics, as they already own at least one OS4 system, and they don't seem to mind the price. What I'm skeptical about is that the name alone would be able to pull in significantly more regular users compared to MorphOS, if the hardware was similarly priced. Unfortunately it's unlikely we will ever find out who was right about this, since every company that owns a chunk of OS4 is committed to the custom hardware route, and custom hardware will always be more expensive than mass produced.

Of course it doesn't help, but look at this from the other perspective. WinUAE costs nothing, and when PPC supports was added OS4.1FE Classic sold like hot cakes, yet that didn't translate into a lot of new active users.

There's more to this than just "affordable hardware". MorphOS can run on cheap PPC Macs, yet the user base doesn't seem to be growing all that much.

Thanks, but I did this port a very long time ago, so you and the others deserve the donation more than I do.
