Re: Hyperion and Amiga reach legal ceasefire

Posted on: 3/23 19:07 #1

Not too shy to talk

Statement from Cloanto/Amiga on Twitter:

Quote:

Following positive developments concerning Hyperion Entertainment, progress has been made in narrowing a number of issues.

Going forward, Amiga Corporation is Hyperion Entertainment CVBA's licensor under the existing 2009 Settlement Agreement. The chapter involving Cloanto, ITEC, Amino and KMOS has been closed. On that basis, Amiga and Hyperion Entertainment are engaged in renewed settlement discussions.

It is also agreed that Retro Games may release certain Amiga-branded products, and that Hyperion Entertainment may offer "AmigaOS 3.2" digital upgrades under a temporary arrangement intended to preserve continuity for the community while those discussions continue.

Since 1985, Amiga has held an enduring place in computing history. Amiga Corporation remains committed to the preservation, stewardship and continued development of that legacy.

Re: How do I create a stable Amiga installation?

Absolutely not! The OS4 installation on my X5000 is very stable. But then again, I run more or less pure Update 3 - the only "foreign" component is the Radeon RX driver from the Enhancer Pack.

This is something I think kills the user experience for so many people: the replacement OS components from the Enhancer Pack. Many dealers throw everything from Enhancer on their systems they ship to customers, and I really don't think they should. It replaces the datatypes, command-line utilities, and more.

I am *extremely* selective about what I put on my systems from A-EON and they're stable as a rock. Whenever I do a default Enhancer install the result is an unstable mess.

Hyperion Entertainment BV and Amiga Corporation agree to pause legal proceedings

Hyperion Entertainment BV and Amiga Corporation have entered into temporary agreements to pause their ongoing legal proceedings and enable both parties to better engage in settlement negotiations and work toward a resolution.

As part of these agreements, Hyperion Entertainment BV will make AmigaOS 3.2 available in digital form.

We remain committed to supporting the Amiga community and the continued evolution of AmigaOS.

Thank you for your patience and support.

Re: The Settlers II Gold Edition Comes to Amiga – October 18, 2025

@thread

Did anyone in the US ever get their physical copies? I received an email from Simon back in October asking if I wanted the English or German version, but nothing since. I sent an email a couple of weeks ago asking if it ever shipped, and no response yet.

Wondering if I'm alone or maybe they halted shipments to the US because of tariff uncertainty?

Re: Any news from AmiWest25?

@Gregor

Very little news this year. A-EON does have a new version of Enhancer in the hopper and was about to release it, but then Update 3 got released, so they want to do more testing first.

The Mirari board has landed with the ExecSG developers and kernel work has started, so it looks like AmigaOS 4 is on its way; and the ExecSG guys do have the second core running now, although the demo took a few attempts, so, still early days -- but further along than even at Amiga 40.

No new version of Emotion.

That's awesome! Just ordered. I assume the AOS4 version is included alongside the 68k one.

Re: AmiBrowser: new modern web browser

@interrogative

I don't think it's misleading. After all the GUI is an AROS program. It's a great option since these platforms are ARM-based Linux running AROS and 68K emulation. The AROS bit is the GUI and the actual browser bit is Linux Chromium. So it's not an option for AmigaOS systems (either 68K or PPC), but it's a wonderful addition for the A600GS/A1200NG products.

Not unless someone ports AmigaOS to be hosted on top of Linux. This isn't exactly an actual Amiga browser. Underneath is Chromium running on Linux on ARM.

Looks like you're driving a Linux instance of Chromium with an AROS wrapper connecting to it. Nice feature when running on top of Linux.

Hi folks! I'm looking to purchase a specific set of English issues of Amiga Future magazine, specifically issues 67 through 82. I already have the PDF versions but am looking for printed copies. If you have a lead, please let me know. Thanks!

Re: NVMe support for Sam460 Uboot - how about X5000?!

@Hans

Neither the X5K/A1222 U-boot or X1000 CFE code is available publicly, which is a shame. Given where CFE is typically used, I doubt Broadcom or any of their customers would be adding NVMe support.

Of course if A-EON would like to make the source available, maybe someone here could play with it? Hintedy hint hint....

I feel for you. Constant changes at YT make keeping a third-party client working an endurance race. Talk to the guys developing NewPipe -- it's just never-ending.

Not sure what that file encoding is at first glance. This is where @Hans might be able to help. The ISO standard here is just referring to the container format.

Yes. Your video uses H.265 encoding which is not currently supported by the video acceleration library. H.264, however, is supported just fine.

Re: I'm having a problem with Warpdt and Multiviewer

@skynet

Good to hear. The bottom line I follow with Enhancer components is this: unless there is a very good reason to replace an AmigaOS component with one from Enhancer -- like a specific feature that is new that you absolutely must have -- don't do it. Only install things that do *not* replace AmigaOS components unless you absolutely have to.

That's very odd. I use both MultiViewer and the WarpDT datatypes just fine. But I do not use the datatypes.library included with Enhancer, only the one included with AmigaOS. In fact I am extremely selective about what I install from Enhancer to the absolute minimal when it comes to components that replace anything included in AmigaOS.

Re: Amiga 1222: Catweasel MK4 and a graphics card at the same time?

@FirstNinja

No. The firmware doesn't support this, and even if it did, you wouldn't want to do it given the bandwidth challenges. I also wouldn't recommend using the DIU, either. It's very limited in terms of resolution, and there is no acceleration whatsoever.

Hopefully soon there will be an option to use USB-based floppy drives.

@thread

This is a trend that I hope the "powers that be" have noticed. We have a small number of talented developers, but that pool keeps growing smaller, many of which leave due to frustration over behavior of Hyperion or A-EON -r AmigaKit.

It is a classic case of being a "penny wise, pound foolish" when it comes to behavior over issues of control and ownership, driving away the people who do that actual work. And it drives away users as well. Every year at AmiWest I've attended we have a new list of things that have happened and people it drove away. If this continues the center cannot hold.

Just food for thought.
