Amiga OS 4.1 Compatability List
« on: July 19, 2012, 01:00:18 PM »
I was wondering what classic Amiga software works with Amiga OS 4.1.
 
I would like to use the following on my new Amiga One computer:
 
  • Final Writer
  • Final Data
  • Diskmaster 1.x
  • Brilliance
Do any classic Amiga games work with Amiga OS 4.1?
Amiga 500 (like new in box) , Amiga 2000 (like new in box) , Amiga 2500 (like new in box) , Amiga 3000T (like new) , 2 - Amiga 500 Towers , AmigaOne with OS 4.1

Final Writer - works
Final Data  -  works
 
All other two I don't have it, so I don't know.
 
Aboout 90 % of the games I test with RuninEUAE works fine in my system, I have a Sam440flex at 800 MHz.
Viva AMIGA:roflmao:
Amiga 1200 -Blizzapd PPC + BVision + Mediator OS 3.9 + OS 4.0 Classic
SAM 440 Flex 800Mhz + 1Gb + Ati 9250 OS4.1u2
AmigaOne X5000 + 8Gb + Radeon R9 270
 
It\'s my new CHAMELEON 64 A C64 or an AMIGA ?

If it runs in UAE then it should work on OS4, just like it would in Windows, OS X, Linux.

You might have a look in this thread: http://amigaworld.net/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?mode=viewtopic&topic_id=29215&forum=32&start=0&viewmode=flat&order=0

Some posts have tips how to install 68k software, some posts have rather comprehensive information about runable software. Furthermore there's IntuitionBase and a somewhat outdated but still helpful list of 68k software and their behaviour in an OS4.x enviroment ("Classic Software): http://www.intuitionbase.com/ossoftware.php

About games: Most of them are more or less "hard coded" to an Amiga, so UAE is the only chance to get them running - nevertheless there are *some* 68k games that are working without the need for a UAE setup, i.e. Soliton, Foundation, Nemac 4.

I have never really used WinUAE because I do have real Amiga computers.  I do not want to have to run an Amiga emulator on my AMIGA One computer.  So, I really need to know what classic Amiga software works with Amiga OS 4.1 without the use of an Amiga emulator.  My Amiga One computer will take the place of my 3.6 GHz AMD PC (short for Piece of Crap).  I am sick and tired of Winblows XP Unprofessional and Winblows 7 Unprofessional.  I want to use Amiga OS 4.1 as an alternative.

Most software that doesn't directly access the hardware will run without the need for UAE.

As mentioned above Final Writer and Final Data will run without the need for UAE.  There's a native port of Diskmaster 2.  Brilliance may need UAE to run.

With the latest update UAE is automatically installed along with Chris Hindley's RunInUAE which goes some way to making UAE fell more integrated with OS4.  
For example if you have a game in ADF image you can simply double click on it like any application and UAE will automatically start running in it's own window or screen and load the game.

Sounds good.  I am selling my Amiga 3000T for $800.  As soon as it is sold, I will order my Sam440ep Flex 733 Mhz motherboard and Amiga OS 4.1 from ACube Systems.  I saw an Amiga One Motherboard blow the fraken doors off of a 3.6 GHz AMD pc on YouTube.  It was really impressive how a 733 MHz Amiga One computer was running circles around a Winblows 7 Unprofessional pc.  Really funny stuff.  :lol:

And where have you seen an amigaone under OS4 playing Youtube in the browser, exactly? If you did, it was in Timberwolf, and i doubt a 3.6GHz PC would be slower than 1 frame every two seconds like it is on OS4+SAM.

Now, if you mean you saw another way to play youtube content with an external player, ok, but it's a bit different. ;)

I do not want to "defend" Windows but you can do there a lot of things with its huge software-base that you cannot with AmigaOS (or right now any other "Amigian" OS). I work with Win7 at work and partly at home and AmigaOS is certainly not able to replace Windows. And when I would like to see the youtube video where AOS with 733 MHz is beating easily 3.6 GHz. I would estimate that the creator did all to make Windows looking bad and his "favorite" OS looking good.

No, I mean that I saw a video on YouTube, made by Dan Wood, where he compared a 733 MHz Amiga One computer from power off to surfing the web and a 3+ GHz AMD pc doing the same thing.  From power off to surfing the web, the 733 MHz Amiga One did it in about 10 seconds, the 3+ GHz AMD pc took over 2 minutes to do the exact same thing.
 
I am talking about another person on YouTube showing off Amiga OS 4.1 on his 733 MHz Amiga One computer.  He loaded up Quake, Quake 2, Quake 3, and Workbench.  He had each program in its own window, at different resolutions, and he was dragging the screens around.  My 3.6 GHz AMD pc can NOT do that, and if I tried, my pc would crash or choke and die.  Once again, the Amiga blows the fraken doors off the pc.  It is funny how a pc has to be at least 3 times faster then an Amiga computer, just to keep up with it.  :lol:
 
Anyway, we are starting to get off topic.

If I can do the following things on an Amiga One computer, I will nolonger be using a pc:
  • Surf the web
  • sell on eBay
  • Run my online business
  • Create my web pages
  • Run a word processor
  • Run a data base
  • play music
  • play videos
  • Print using a HP Inkjet printer
The only thing that I will continue using my pc for is for WoW and FPS games, basicly another video gaming console, like an XBOX.
 
Millions of people are fed up with Microshaft and Winblows and are looking for an alternative platform. I would like to help ACube Systems push the Amiga One platform here in the USA. It is time for the Amiga computer to return. This time, with myself leading the team here in America, and providing we can get the financial backing we will need, the Amiga will be the number one personal computer in the world. We will spend millions of dollars on advertising. We will actually state that the Amiga computer is the best personal computer in the world, always has been, and we will dare Microsoft, Intel, and Apple to prove us wrong. I will do what Commodore should have done to begin with. I WILL NOT DROP THE BALL!

I believe you already did, or rather you never had the ball to begin with.

Better to spend millions of dollars in development first.
