Damn NET . . .sometimes the gap between a"techie joke" and a trolling attempt, is very, very thin :-)

A clear case of misunderstanding based on the language barrier as well as the difficulty of getting humour across in a forum post.

I think emoticons (smilies) are over used to the extent that they are now mostly ignored.

The smiley in the original post should have indicated humour but with people abusing these symbols by posting them left right and centre, it may have made it difficult to distinguish the humorous remark from a serious one.

That is one of the reasons the thread started deteriorating.

It is also clear that a few individuals have a fervent enthusiasm and their online persona becomes well known for such qualities. It is helpful to just accept their character than to continually challenge it.

On the other hand It is a good idea to first question a persons meaning before lashing out and claiming that the post is a troll attempt. Especially when you are not sure because of linguistic shortcomings.

I have seen many clashes caused by such type of situations and all of them could have been avoided if there was a pause to think before replying.

There is no shame in asking someone if they are being sarcastic or serious etc. etc if you are not sure.

Also if you are going to reply then do so to what a person has posted rather than what "you think" that person is capable of posting.

All in all people should try not to over react. Even if someone does genuinely troll then why reply. Surely the best thing to do when  "you think" someone is trolling is to ignore them.

My ramblings may sound boring but someone has to say this stuff ;-)

gadgetmaster:i agree with you on that one.


@hyperion: so basically wos and w3d is working in os4 now?=? , or is that an homebrewed version of glsokoban?, if wos is working now then this is looking SWEET!.

cheers

[The_Editor]

Awesome !!

Can't wait for Radeon drivers  (Their getting the hint !!)

 :-D

No, this is a fully OS4-Native  version of Warp3D and glSokoban.  I don't want to rely on the WOS emu to run Warp3D ;-)

rouge:good that we got that out of the sky then.

but there will be a problem if we had to recompile all (not many i know..but still) wos and pup stuff for os4 native, and mostb of all it might end up with the fact that there is no way to get the sources for stuff like wipeout 2097 and so on...

so i hope there will be a decent wos emu atleast (as i have begged for .....for a while now O)


cheers

I don't remember anyone saying any of the things you say.

Selective memory perhaps? I remember reading people's posts forecasting about AmigaOS's doom, and that it will NEVER run on PPC. That has been proven wrong, along with a bunch of other little things.

There's no point arguing over this, people have said countless stupid things in both directions. Whatever. Fact is it's good to see Warp3D finally functional on an AmigaOne. Here's to more good news: :pint:

. . .too late, thanks to your "companion" mikeymike with its comment at the beginning of the thread.:

Ok, hands up who thought that was anything other than a harmless joke?

If there is a language barrier issue with what I said, that's hardly my fault.  Ansiotropic filtering and anti-aliasing in 3D graphics are quite recent advances (last couple of years?), I would hardly expect for it to be in OS4 final release, let alone the first 3D implementations.  That's not trying to look down on Hyperion either, it is hardly a feature worth paying much attention to for the first new release, and it could be supplied in a boingbag/patch/upgrade anyway.

Gawd, some people.

What did you think I meant?  :-?

My Radeon is already sitting in my A1, she growls when you get too near :-D

I didn't say that it will be impossible to run WOS stuff with Warp3D... OS4 native code (and emulated 68k code) will use Warp3D.library. WOS code uses to use (and will continue to do so) Warp3DPPC.library, which will be a WOS library.

@Rogue

  Just like to say I'm most impressed with your work. They must have you tied up in that basement, giving you the occasional whipping to encourage you to produce so much!    (unless of course you take that to be a perk of the job hehe :-D )

As for the 3D interface, I'm assuming in the future you are looking to support the T&L stuff. The speed difference is quite amazing when here at work you force the T&L into software vertex processing as apposed to HW.

Anyhow keep up the good work....

...oh and when will it be ready! (*snigger* :-P )

Rogue,

have you noticed the fact that the behaviour toward Hyperion is becoming better every day ?

Finally the "Force" is spreading strongly in all the Amiga community...  :-D

You deserved it !

PS - good things are (almost always) discovered and appreciated in the end...  8-)

Do you deliberately stir things up, or does it come naturally?

[Zorro]

Naturally...  ;-)
