The Hans I was referring to was Hans de Ruiter, not HJF, as the link you provided stated that  Hans de Ruiter was working on Warp3D for AmigaOS4.x and that he thought it would be done by the end of 2012.

...

Edit:  My mistake.  From reading the links provided on HDR's web pages, I mistakenly thought that he was working on the Warp3D drivers.


Correct, I am not responsible for the Warp3D drivers. I have provided documentation, some example code and a little assistance, but it's not one of my projects.

Hello Hans,

From reading your HDRLabs website, it seems to me that you would be the perfect person to take over the completion of the Warp3D for Radeon HD video cards drivers/software.

With the completion of AmigaOS4.2 and Gallium/Mesa probably many months, or even a couple of years away, we really could use Warp3D for Radeon HD to provide a "stop-gap" solution of 3D support, until AmigaOS4.2 is released.

If someone like yourself, or another qualified programmer were to take on the Warp3D for AmigaOS4.x and Radeon HD video cards, it would take the responsibility of one project away from the Frieden brothers, who have enough other projects to work on at the moment.


If A-EON ask me to work on it, I'll certainly consider it even though I'm pretty busy with other things.

However, AFAIK Hans-Joerg is working on finishing the driver, and I don't think that switching developers is worth it at this point. There was a major road-block earlier on, but that's been solved.
