[UserReview] Vampire V2-128 received and it's just pure p0rn.

Accurate chipset cloaning is very time consuming. If they are to make a standalone board without using open source code, then they have a lot of work ahead of them. The downside of using GPL code is then they must release the CPU source as well, which seems unlikely. Perhaps they have already done all this groundwork from the Natami days.

I recently read that a lot of AGA software did run on the Natami so the groundwork was done already.

Back to topic.

First, here is a quick video I made to demonstrate current GOLD3 WIP :

Basically, we are now showing native Amiga chipset over HDMI.

Then, here is a quick and dirty screenshot of SimCity2000 AGA running on Vampire (yes, AGA is around the corner ;-) )

To be clear Tuko this is the (WIP) re-implementation of the native Amiga chipset (including AGA) on the Vampire, and not taking the Amiga's own video into the Vampire for example with a Parasite board, correct?

The Amiga flash exe files for Gold 2.7 Release are available now.

Available in a public release for the first time are x12 (>85MHz) core JIC Files. USB blaster, Quartus software and stable Vampire power circuits required (some boards need capacitor mods).
