Title: Another Ottawa Amiga show report
Post by: zee4 on November 27, 2003, 05:54:19 PM
Here's a short report on the Ottawa Amiga show from last weekend. This one will be handy if you're looking to mix Amigas and pubs.

Ottawa Amiga 2003 report.

Just read the report. :)  

Just wanted to mention that Alladin4D was running emulated...  [Kermit was running the 040 version of Alladin.]  It wasn't PPC native, and if it's running on the Peg+MOS, it will most likely run on OS4 emulated as well. ;)

It's almost the same for ImageFX, except he probably had the "PowerStation" installed.  [I didn't catch his IFX demo].  The "MOS" upgrade is new PNG icons and the PowerUP (or WarpOS?) PPC modules that were later made for IFX.   I'm still unsure if the new "Lightning" module is MOS native or simply PowerUP.  Plain-old 68k Image FX runs on MOS just fine, so I'll take it that it'll work on OS4.  The PPC modules will most likely work should OS4 support classic-Amiga PPC binaries (WarpOS/PowerUP).

However, I could tell you that I would greatly enjoy to hear about those products showing up native for both platforms.   :-D

The good news, however, is that even emulated Alladian4D is wicked-fast on a puny G3-600. ;)

True, I still have Alladin4D around, I'd certainly like to give it a try on an AmigaOne. I thought it's image quality was one of the best, behind LightWave3D...now under a G3/G4 that would be fun. I too hope they'll release native versions for both platforms.

Just waiting to get some Pegs to send out so that some native work can be done for Alladin4D.
