Title: MorphOS: Enter the Third Dimension!
Post by: Piru on August 27, 2005, 04:08:26 AM

After two years of active development, we are proud to announce the immediate availability of the free MorphOS 3D Update pack. This pack brings Warp3D and OpenGL® API compatibility to a whole new range of hardware including 3dfx Voodoo and ATI Radeon.

TinyGL library is heavily optimized and special care has been taken to improve the OpenGL® compliance. It now offers an extended set of advanced features including cubic mapping, display lists, stencil buffering, multitexturing, mipmapping, palette texture handling, non-blocking rendering (no context locking is required), compiled vertex arrays, user clipping planes, selection buffer, evaluators, a GLUT implementation and much more.
 
Warp3D libraries have been improved and offer more compatibility than any known implementation on the market.
 
 
3D hardware supported on Pegasos2, Pegasos1 and PowerUP machines:
 - 3Dfx Avenger (Voodoo 3)
 - 3Dfx Napalm (Voodoo 4 and Voodoo 5)
 
3D hardware supported on Pegasos2 and Pegasos1 machines:
 - ATI rv100 (Radeon 7000 and Radeon VE)
 - ATI r100 (Radeon 7200)
 - ATI rv200 (Radeon 7500)
 
3D hardware supported on Pegasos2 machines:
 - ATI r200 (Radeon 8500 and Radeon 9100)
 - ATI rv250 (Radeon 9000)
 - ATI rv280 (Radeon 9200 and Radeon 9250)
 
 
 
The MorphOS 3D Update pack requires MorphOS 1.4.5 and is freely available on our FTP site and download portal http://download.morphos-team.net (http://download.morphos-team.net).
Please visit http://3d.morphos-team.net (http://3d.morphos-team.net/) for additional information.
 
We hope you will enjoy using this pack as much as we enjoyed creating it.
Keep your graphics processor busy!
 
 
Best Regards,
  Frank, Mark, Michal and Nicolas.

@Framiga:

You only need a CSPPC with G-Rex. Install MOS 1.4.5 on your PPC and update the voodoo drivers.
