AmigaOS 3.9 PPC software?

[amiadudeorwat]

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 .

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

I see over in the EAB Sonnet thread someone ported ScummVM 1.8.1 for WarpOS.

There is tons of ppc apps. Here are some "pro" ones to try

Wildfire PPC (gfx program)
CandyFactory PRO (gfx)
Image FX  Studio (powerstation ppc plugin)
also all ppc datatypes and things make a big diff. There is decent PPC software out there.

Is porting from 68K to WOS relatively straight forward or is it complicated and requires a lot of addition work?

Hopefully the interest generated from the sonnet cards will encourage some additional ports.

Porting to warpos is easy, in many cases its just a recompile. However tuning for warpos is a lot more involved. A naive recompile to warpos can give code that runs more slowly than the original if it makes many OS calls. It's all about reducing the number of contexr switches.
