AmigaOS 3.9 PPC software?
« on: January 04, 2016, 08:25:58 PM »
Do you know if somebody cataloged PPC compatible software (datatypes etc.) useful for AmigaOS 3.9 based systems?

In general, if someone is NOT interested in playing Shogo or DoomPPC on PPC Amiga Classic how can be PPC used?

E.g. MP3 decoder, jpg datatype (and others)

What more?

I'm asking since, there is no infinite number of software written (and USEFUL) for Amiga Classic PPC and I would assume someone in last 15 years catalog all this stuff. If not... maybe I should do it ;).

I don't have PPC but maybe, someday, possibly, when changing icons on desktop will become boring :P.

At least some idea is available from Aminet when seeking programs for PPC Warpup and/or Powerup.

I'd be interested in finding out a list as well. I usually look at aminet and just click the warpos icon in search. I brings up quite a bit.

The WarpDT's can use a PPC processor for decoding:

Other than that, I'd be interested in a list, too.  For "maybe someday", haha.  ;)

Here are some examples:

- Amiga demos
http://www.pouet.net/prodlist.php?platform%5B0%5D=Amiga+PPC%2FRTG&page=1&order=thumbup

- AmigaAmp supports PPC mp3 decoding
- Well apart from that I think mostly games support PPC.
- AMP - great MPEG player
- FroggerNG - another video player

- Check some Aminet entries as well here:
http://aminet.net/search?type=advanced

Just mark up WarpUP and PowerUP

You can also install MorphOS 1.4.5 and AmigaOS4.x

Thanks. I will search and decide if I want to get PPC (real) :)

This idea come to me since yesterday I stared looking at my old CD with Amiga software and there is soooooo much "stuff" but basically I could narrow useful software to few (literally) FEW programs any person could use.

So, did anyone ever create a list for 3.9? I recently set up my A4000T with a CyberstormPPC and CybervisionPPC and have since been hunting the net to find whatever i can to use with this combo :).

Honestly not a lot these days. You have discovered the truth of getting a high priced accelerator and learning nothing is currently being made for it. This was one of the primary reasons behind me just getting the X5000.

I had PPC cards in the past but sold them all and had no plans on ever getting any again, but then someone locally really wanted my Vampire card which i was currently not using (too many projects) and offered the PPC card and CVPPC in a trade, who am i to say no to such a deal.

I guess i will just keep hunting the net to see what is out there for a 3.9 machine :).

The PPC on my BPPC is collecting dust for years now, only using the 060.
I originally bought it mainly to watch PPC scene demos, but I went through them and new ones are not being made, so the PPC is out of work :)

Once the Vampire1200 is released, I'm quite sure my BPPC+BVision will be sold.

No doubt you will find a buyer, but the software for it is pretty limited (unless you are will to use OS4).

The Sonnet/Rapture project has a list of all the WarpOS software they've tested, looks like most everything.
