iFusion for now only worked on the CyberstormPPCs.

Hedeon a good friend of mine made several attempts to
make it work on PCI based PPCs. But no luck on this so far.

I contacted famous Mac Emulation Guru Jim Drew.
In 2015/17 he posted still having the sources to iFusion we need foradaptation to newer Hardware. But recently he told me not to have it
but maybe on some sort of tape backup. I even contacted CEO Paul Lesurf
of Virtual Programming (VP)and got permission to adapt it as his company don’t do Amiga Stuff anymore. So if Jim finds the Sources we are allowed to
adapt an maybe have the opportunity to have it on PCI PPCs or even stronger X1000/X5000.

@pjsQuote:

That is not so complicated. It is on the original iFusion 💿.

@pjsQuote:

Yes it was stable an it had the following features:

iFusion is an iMac emulatior for the Amiga.

The current specification is as follows:

* Support for up to 2 Gb of physical/Virtual memory
* Supports AHI
* Support for Hardfiles, CD-ROM drives and Partitions
* Keyboard/Mouse support
* Support for floppies and removable media
* Support for Apple's built-in virtual memory
* Supports on-the-fly switching with supported graphics systems (CyberGraphX
* Support for 0S8.6 through 0S9.1
* Runs directly from Mac OS CD - no external ROM image required

System Requirements:

* WarpUp v16 (Supplied on the CD)
* PPC card with at least 64Mb of RAM.
* Cybergraphics v3 or later

** iFusion will currently not run on a BlizzardPPC due to an incompatibility with
WarpUP/BlizzardPPC. This is being investigated by Haage & Partner/Sam Jordan.

@pjs

Well I bought iFusionPPC.
And it worked on my A4000/CSPPC233MHz.
You needed the latest iFusionPPC Updates (1.3) and a
special PowerPC.library (WarpUp V16) that used
undocumented features.

I was able to successfully test Lightwave3D 7.5 on it and it rendered
very fast compared to my original Lightwave3D 5 Setup on my 060.

@Elwood

Thank You in advance.

Is that true that I don’t loose
onboard 502 gfx with SAM460EX
after installing latest and greatest
uboot2015b or newer?

@SinanSam460

Hope after investigating our issue we (and maybe others) can
benefit from newest uboot.

@Elwood

Hi 👋🏼. Yes I will be there and I do appreciate your offer.
I’ll bring my Sam460ex to the show.

Maybe it’s a good finding that at least two original SAM460EX with onboard gfx rendered dead after upgrading with newest 2015b uboot. While Update processs returned no errors and confirmed to do a reset after cdrom media removal.

Maybe you nice guys @ acube need to investigate?

Thanks for your support looking forward to the awesome Amiga38 show.

@SinanSam460

That is very interesting.Did you have the same result?

Dear Amigans. I got stucked.

Last weekend I finally found time to build up
my SAM460EX with 502 GFX onboard.

I unpacked the uboot 2015b archive I bought from ACube Shop
and went to OS4.1 to find out the corresponding clock
my Sam had. So it showed me 55MHz.

After that I chose the update_460_2015b.iso and burned with
1x speed the .iso to a CD.
After that I put in the CD and first changed boot order to SIL3114 sata_DVD.
The ubootupdater immediately kicked in with a minimalistic menu after choosing ubootupdater it erased and after wrote the new uboot without any problems.

After removal of CD and reset/power off the SAM seems „dead“. But at least on Mainboard power led showed green and there is a row of leds where now after uboot update only one (the last in the row when you look at it)
is shining in green. No vga/hdmi output either on onboard 502 or on Radeon pci/pci-e after update.
Blackscreen an no fancy new uboot Menu

Is it bricked?
Any Ideas 💡 ?

Hi Guys & Gals.

I was wondering if this could be easily done for Amiga.
What I found is a quiet cool project done for the Atari ST
Using Python3 to patch the shareware version of Elite2 Frontier
Atari ST Version. It transforms the awesome Intro-sequence into
a little Benchmark application to measure speeds on different
setups.

I would love to see this for Amiga too. But I’m not the programming type
of guy (what a shame I know 😅).

Here is the source I found:

https://github.com/dh219/FrontBench

Would be cool if you could have a look 👀 and maybe do bit of magic 🫶

You guys are awesome 👏. Keep up the good work.

@trgswe

Thanks 🙏🏽. Yes a recent WebKit is so
essential for OS4.

Hope with the synergy-power
our awesome Community got we will see it rise.

One shout out:
Thanks to all you guys out there that define our
Smart Community. Even small steps are steps.

Hello dear Community.
Any news regarding a/the QT5 port for our Ladies?

Got a port project in mind that needs a QT5.3

What an awesome attempt Mate!
Really looking forward to what you
might achieve in your next releases.

Maybe Daniel could help you regarding
OGLES2 🤔

Could you please have a look into the
SEGA SATURN part too (after PSX of course 😅)?

This would be an Amiga first if you could get that one
to work. Saturn is IMO one of the best 2D Platforms
out there. Fantastic Games on it.

Thanks for your efforts 👍🏼😘

Any News on MineTest?

Hey HunoPPC,

Is it suggested to buy Doom3 alone or better the
Doom BFG Bundle on Steam?

Thanks in advance.
Regards

Dolphin is an excellent WiI Emulator. This would bring lots of
cool Games to Amiga if once ported.

@Hedeon

Hey my friend nice to see you here.
For all who don’t know Hedeon is the creator of
awesome sonnet.library and of course ReWarp.

Hope you guys can achieve Amiga Milestones
sharing your synergy effects.

I want to take this opportunity to thank you Hedeon
for your great work done in the past and I always like
to think back to our Cellar-Session where you made
Classic Amiga’s first PowerPC G4 400MHz/1M L2 work.

And thanks to Joerg and Kas1e and you other awesome guys.

OMG!!! Gals and Boys we need this Game for our PPCLadies.
Have you seen it in action?

AWESOME!

Very very cool AI involved with clean graphics & nice sound.
This IMO would be one of the if not the demanding
Game on next Gen Amigas.

Have a look how cool:

And it’s a game with Amiga roots.
Here it’s ancestor on Amiga AGA with Driving Wheel

BumpUp to 2022 (over 12yrs later).

Any news regarding the FPSE?
How does it run on newer machines like
X1000, X5000? With latest 4.1.x?

Is there a chance to get it running with Nova3D.
Maybe with visual improvements?

@Antique

Indeed a very interesting question.
Blender3D is on of my favorite 3D Programs under AmigaOS4.1.
Andy did a really awesome job!!! Big Thanks for that.
Python3 is essential for a port of more resent versions of Blender3D.
The new features are incredible compared. Hope Andy would love to see a newer port too 😅. Shaders would be WOW!!!!
