It runs OS3.3/3.9 software fine once you install the Reaction classes and resource.library.

What software btw? Most of it is just irrelevant prefs programs for the OS itself, I cannot think of any software title that requires OS3.5+, the very few titles that rely on Reaction (AWeb) also work with ClassAct.

Because it upsets you, that alone makes it worth while - IMO.
AROS has software AmigaOS doesn’t have, for example a maintained Poseidon USB stack.

Care to name those software titles that really require 3.5+?

Software like MCE, Report+, AmiArcadia, etc. requires ReAction rather than ClassAct as they use some additional features that are not present in ClassAct.
Huge popular must have titles, not.

Trolling again eh obviously...why am I not surprised...

It takes one to know one, eh?
You keep jumping on just about any AROS thread just to say that it doesn't work for you and that you're not at all interested in it.

I just don't like the way they conveniently omit that the version of AmigaOS they replicate is 25 years obsolete and modern "Amiga OS Conform Software" is actually not supported, it's misleading.
Noone wrote "supported", the word used is "runs", which is true. And "modern" Amiga software? Let us not kid ourselves, nothing "modern" going on here. What AROS does is replicate the APIs, not the the software that the OS shipped with - all APIs are in place for also Reaction to run, it just happens that the owners of Reaction do not wish to see it on AROS - which is totally fine, because Reaction has _very little_ to offer over what is already present. And if you _REALLY_ desperately need Reaction on AROS, you can have it - you have shown up through the years that you have no problem ignoring copyrights and distribution licenses, so you should have no trouble using unpacking a reaction.lha archive on your AROS/68k system partition.

Anyways - AROS moves on with or without you, you can mix and match with "real" AmigaOS all you like.

AmigaOS moved on 20 years ago, it is AROS that still hasn't.

*slow clap*

Maybe someone should put up a web page with "unofficial boingbags for AROS/68k, only for owners of AmigaOS 3.9"

With the current situation, though, there is no room in AROS for Amiga OS developers and others who may "have seen the real sources" :)

Right, let’s make a portable AROS ProAction ;)

(Or better, extend Zune with Reaction classes and the resource.library)

I would call it a bit differently to make sure people understand is for AROS, like Kitty Bags, or something on the same topic?

Kitty Bags  :)

I really like that name and find it suits perfectly.

So let's do it - who wants to be a pirate? :p
