Re: a-eon update on warp3d and libre office

That's nice to know. Looks like Warp3D is finally close.

I had no idea that they were so far along with converting Libre Office. To have this product is a bit like having Timberwolf - it opens up the Amiga to being far more useful for day to day work.

Looking forward to 3D - finally!.

Easter 1988. School holidays. I was 11.

A500 1.3 with 1084S which we purchased from Gordon Harwood computers.

Sword of Sodan totally blew me away. I have never been wowed as much by a computer.

Do you use it with an accelerator? I only ask as I once had an 030 accelerator for my A600. It was brilliant when it worked but very unreliable. It would be interesting to hear if someone has managed to make it usable.

My A4000/030.

I loved that machine and when upgrading it to an 060 with a Cybervision 64 it was wonderful. Far more fluid and fun to use than any PC at the time.

I moved it to a Micronik tower and added many other peripherals and hardware hacks - which unfortunately led to it dying.

It was a seriously awesome tool.

Which isn't even imho funny at all....well, back then, maybe

I suppose it was for the novelty factor as people struggled to use the vast space available compared to floppy.

Would it have hurt them to have done a full AGA version with CD tracks and 'proper' cut scenes? Ah well - I can dream...

Wow. If this could be made to work on OS4 then it would really help solve the games issue.

If existing Torque engine games could be easily ported over then this would be very useful to getting more interest in OS4.

How long do you think it would take to port fully?

Some CD Roms for the A1200 come with CD32 emulators.

Failing that just get a CD32 from EBay. I don't think you're missing much. AFAIK it is just an FMV intro sequence: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=1075560399001972892

Some sort of consistently updated OS4 updates/news section would be good. Just so people have a single point of reference to the current status of OS4.
