IMICA Atom becomes Aros fully native and celebrates in Silence

[Karlos]

I tried DPaint V on MorphOS long ago and it ran just fine. Old versions wont run.

Have you tried DPaint IV? It works in OS3.x (I'm sure I got 256 color RTG modes working before but don't quote me) and hence OS4. I would be surprised if it didn't work in MOS.

We have available SDL 1.2.11, SDL_gfx 2.0.18, SDL_image 1.2.3, SDL_mixer 1.2.5, SDL_net 1.2.7 and SDL_sound 1.0.3

Wow.  I made a bootable AROS USB stick and copied dev stuff from an icAros Live over to it.  

Threw together a make file and I was drawing on the screen in a few minutes.  I didn't realize there were so many dev tools.   I have no sound so couldn't test that, but I mostly use gfx/image/mixer/and ttf looks like it is there too!

Pretty awesome.  Native AROS is SO responsive it's almost feels strange.

I don't have to address all the wrong points because you obviously can't read or you wouldn't keep making incorrect statements and saying wild stupid things. You obviously haven't even read about aros at all from the ridiculous statements you are making.
 
"1. They are using linux as a base, then popping APIs on top of it, making a WB lookalike that is analogous to linux w/ WINE. They will never capture the Amiga experience as it is in MOS or AmigaOS. "
 
Aros can run windows hosted, linux hosted, or native. It is not based on linux, though it can run under linux or linux hosted.

The reason AROS is wasting time is:

1. They are using linux as a base, then popping APIs on top of it, making a WB lookalike that is analogous to linux w/ WINE. They will never capture the Amiga experience as it is in MOS or AmigaOS.

Ok, I'm taking off the moderator hat for this one. This has to be said:

Go away and come back once you've gotten at least half a clue what you are talking about.

AROS is not linux, it is an OS built from the ground up to be source level compatible with OS3.1. Thanks to virtualisation, it can run hosted on linux, if that's what you want to do.

You are either just trolling or you simply have no idea what you are talking about.

I think DPaint V was the first to use Screen Modes from the OS display mode database, thus would accept RTG screen modes... But it was totally flaky on the Chunky modes...

AROS does have Überpaint, which is a lovely DPaint clone

DPaint IV still works in OS4.1, I was messing with it last night (well, I was able to start it and load a picture, hardly an exhaustive test).

I'll have to have another try later...

You know, I still have my DPaint 2 disk here :-D

Well put the hat back on and moderate this:

"I suspect you must be retarded or mentally challenged".

Or is that OK because you don't agree with dreamcast's post however factually wron or right it might be. This has to be said also.

Even in 3.1 under cybergraphx its hit and miss.  Try animating-which is where DPAint shines, and it fails every time.

Did you actually report the post in question, or just assume I'd read it? Or is OK to insinuate that I think it's fair game for someone to throw personal insults at someone else I've disagreed with?

Not wise to assume I've read an entire thread from top to bottom simply because I've singled out a post full of nonsense.

If you see a post that breaks the TOS, just report it.

Are there examples of code originating from MorphOS being brought to AROS?

Considering such code doesn't fall into APL I very much doubt it. Obviously if some code falls into other non-restrictive licenses then it might end up into AROS.

I'm not going to open up shell, sorry.

Was Dpaint V Iwas thinmking about.  I thopuight my memory not that stuffed yet.  Defo remembered selecting screenmodes and my bvison modes being shown.

Strepthroat or whatever and dreamcast4mhz have been talking rot in several threads recently.  I suspect I am not alone in wishing they would go and be rabid and totally wrong about most things on some other site.

I love how aros has developed the moment i tried  the latest live cd i got the feel of the amiga  at the moment i only have one of my amiga,s left i sold all the rest a long time ago the amiga i have left is an a500 built out of parts i think it would be great to strip the case out and rebuild it as an  iMica Atom based machine runing aros.
