PowerUP vs WarpOS.. what was it all about again?

[Mad-Matt]

I thought of that but I wouldnt believe it. That is so totally against the philosophy of sotfware updates! Do you know what version of warp3d is the latest that 'worked' ?

I dont remember for sure, but I think Warp3D v4.0 is on the game disc. Sure bet that that will work.

@ Piru: As much as I understand your opinion, or those of the GOA/MorphOS team, I just want to get a stable system up & running. There's been so many of these 'battles' in the history of Amiga, its ridicolous. Interesting read, sure! But I just dont want to dive too much into it. Im just a user, its spoiling my fun

Use MorphOS 1.4.5. It's free, it's the fastest Classic PPC OS and allows you to run both WarpOS and PowerUp apps without problems.

uh!Crumb ...  i smell a new thread coming

Small usable base of users though. Only works with big box amigas sporting CSPPC and certain graphic cards, or 1200 and BPPC and grex. Come to think of it classic amigas with PPC are nearly extinct already. :confused:

[Framiga]

everyone with a PPC equipped classic Amiga, should at least try it (beeing Morphos or AmigaOS4 for classic). There are still plenty around

Luckily the OP has the required hw, the problem would be with registration.

There is no such thing as a stable Amiga with PPC All you get is a headache. My advise to you is to get a Mac Mini with MOS or SAM with AOS and leave the classic Amiga as 68k.

that is nonsense. back in the days my ppc setup was extremely stable. its just a lot of effort, but thats part of the fun, strangely enough.

Use MorphOS 1.4.5.

no.

I have amigaOS4, will install that later.

Trying out some things now.

[rvo_nl]

the problem is now solved using warp3d 4.0. 4.2 is the one I was using before. thanks all, for your help.

I disagree !!! My system is pretty stable.

I do have one last question (before I open a thread about my next issue which is: I still cant get dragging to work. I have installed cybergraphx 4.3 the way it should, but the dragging tooltype remains ghosted in cyperbraphx prefs, no matter what I try. any idea on this one?

[Damion]

AFAIK there's no dragging with CVPPC/BVision.

I will be setting up two A4000 CSPPC systems with new hard drives and clean installs in the next week or two.  Would you have the time to write down the steps you went through to get your setup the way you want it with the PPC working as good as it can?  Just a short guide of what steps should be taken and pitfalls to avoid would be much appreciated and could possibly be moved to one of the guides or Amiga wiki sites for future users too.

GCX supports dragging only with a very limited set of gfx cards (they're listed in the docs, IIRC), the BVision is not one of them.
