Software News

Hyperion Entertainment is looking for people to join the beta testing team for the soon to be released AmigaOS 4.1 classic versions.

We are looking for people that have prior experience with AmigaOS 4.x, preferably AmigaOS 4.0 on Classics. In addition, knowledge about using bugzilla is required. You also need to have an Amiga computer (A4000 or A1200) with PowerPC accelerator (CyberStormPPC or BlizzardPPC).

To apply, please write an email to thomasf at hyperion-entertainment.biz, and include your postal address, as participants are required to sign a nondisclosure agreement.

Well, OS 4.1 for classic, is good news for the programmers because our job will arrive to more Amigas, and other reason to choose OS4 instead of MorphOS or AROS, with respect to these Amiga OSs.

Good work hyperion.

Let's hope buys and supports you with 4.1. Atleast if they want more versions.

If you have a working Cyberstorm PPC in your A3000 or A3000T it also should work, same as AmigaOS 4.0.

@delshay

Blizzard PPC is supported. Overclocked: You're on your own.

BVision PPC also supported, and FastATA as well. Not sure about Prelude, it would have to be tested. :)

@HammerD

on the low end Blizzard card only the 68k processor is overclocked by 7.667Mhz no other componet is overclocked MC68060RC60.

Prelude sound card works (68k drivers) under OS4.0

Remember to gain extra speed a card does not always need to be overclocked.

i still need information on how to increase the Bvision memory clock with OS4.0 or the new to be release OS4.1 for classic.

@delshay

AmigaOS4.X does not use the 68k processor instead its emulated because its faster.
