Title: AROS68K:Does it have RTG support?
Post by: Iggy on September 02, 2012, 01:06:28 AM

I was wondering, can (or will) AROS68K be able to use an RTG graphics card like a Voodoo3?

Currently it can use existing zorro cards.

However.

That is a great tease.
 
You wouldn't want to tell me what's generating those great high res images would you?
 
BTW - Its nice to have some hackers around here.
 
There's only so much you can do with 'real' Amiga hardware.

Please stay out of AROS threads as you have no clue wtf you're talking about.

My guess is that eventually this will be introduced.

I get daily e-mail updates about that and Staf Verhaegen is a friend of mine so I've got a lot of faith in this endeavor (remember, I'm a MorphOS user, so I know thw AOS 3.1 API can be re-implented to create powerful new OS')
