Hello

I just bought a Opalvision card and I tired to found more information about card.

I did knew that it is a sort of Graphics card without proper RTG support. So I don't wait it to promote OS to Opalvision screen.

I found this but search from Aminet didn't tell a much. Only thing I could found is Real3D driver DEMO. Is there a full version availlable somewhere and what are other programs to use with Opalvision?

I have heard tha Opal Paint is very good? There is even a one game for OpalVision, King Of Karate, it must be one of the rarest games wich people has seen in live action.

When I searched info about card I noticed that there is NONE videoslot only cards wich has a rtg support?? Is there a reason for that?

Sorry I wasn't clear, I did seek information of that card, places like BBOAH and amiga.resource.cx. Opal softwaresuite was first thing I found.

Quote in first post is from BBOAH. So what are those third party products wich supports Opalvision? And is there somewhre full version of Reald3D Opalvision driver? I would be interested Real3D 1.4 drivers as I'm very used to it.


Ask Amikit about Real3d. The package was made available for free and he used to have a download for it. It may still be available in that form. He would know.

Magic Lantern was the animation package most people used and not part of the suite.

I don't know if it's still available.

If you have AdPro, then you can download the opalvision saver from aminet, if it is not in your AdPro package. "saver" really means the ability to view images on your opalvision from AdPro.

There may be other s/w, but this is all that I have seen running on opalvision in the day.

I see that Aladdin 4D also lists opalvision support.

It's worth searching both amiga.org and amigaworld too for threads with opalvision as keyword.
