Amiga Events : Crowdfunding: SDL2(+) for Amiga 68K & WarpOS

Posted by zerec on 2025/10/17 0:50:42 (326 reads) News by the same author

AmigaOS 3.x needs SDL2!

Many modern open-source games (e.g., Stratagus) require SDL2 – but 68k & WarpOS Amigas only have SDL1.2. Time to change that!

💥 Your support makes it possible:

• Port SDL2 to AmigaOS 3.x and WarpOS
• Unlock Stratagus and many other open-source titles
• Stretch Goals: SDL3, SDL2_mixer, SDL2_image, MiniGL

Programmer: Steffen “ MagicSN” Häuser, experienced in Amiga ports.

Not too shy to talk Joined: 11/08/2022 From: Backnang Comments: 357	SDL2 In some ways similar, but some stuff is completely different. Some things are handled with completely different API. Basically they made it a more "modern" API, SDL1 is actually depracated on PC ("recommendation: not to be used anymore" - which is also why now often software appears which has no SDL1 path anymore, or where the SDL1 path turns out to be broken).
