AROS Caffeine is now Apollo OS. Instead of just porting AROS from intel to 68k, Apollo OS will be a fast-specialized version that accesses Amiga chipset and the 68K directly instead of using the AROS HAL. Apollo OS will offer direct support for the 68080 to attain the best speed possible. This will provide the best of both worlds. We will have a fast and open 68k OS without the legal entanglements of OS 3.X or the slower speeds of AROS 68k. First release shown here with more releases to come over the next year.
In this video key features are shown as MP3, RTG, RIVA VIDEO, FREE TCPIP, FREE Graphics drivers USB, SD card drive, AGA, ECS, and Vampire standalone.

Really impressive advancement of Aros for Vampire!!!

Wow thanks for this Video ive been torn about pumping up my old falling apart amiga 1200 or buying a standalone. I play games on my a1200 monthly to this day and emulation is annoying constant fiddling. I just wanna turn it on play games. This answered a lotta questions. Really super thank you for this video. All I wanted to see is games running on it. NAILED it.

It's looking more and more like AROS/ApolloOS is the future for Amiga software development. The community will just move on from all the legal stuff of Workbench. A shame, but at least there is now a very good alternative.

Well... until A-EON can get their A1222 (Tabor) out, Vampire V4 standalone seems to be the only viable option that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. I do have a Sam460 running AOS 4.1, but it is a bit buggy. At some point I will probably get the AmigaOne X5000. For now, I have ordered a Vampire V4+. :)

Looks great! Having never owned an Amiga, but getting it set up in WinUAE properly and installing things from disks was a lot of fun. I have it running beautifully on my MiSTer. Love. the FPGA scene! With the digital IO add-on board I can't wait to load my Atari tapes. Amiga, by far, is a better OS with capabilities beyond its time!

You guys are doing great work, Amiga workbench was so ahead of its time as was programs like lightwave etc used for Babylon 5 etc and some classic games , going forward be good to see Gloom and Legacy and new software and demos, also I liked your answer down below his question was valid as will probably get a lot of people thinking that and you answered it well and politely considering all work you guys do. Really respect that

so the big evolution of the "new" amiga hardware is it all for play old 320X200 games? why nobody show how lightwave, imagine, reald 3d or other professional software work? where is AD-pro?

@TemalCageman 3 жыл бұрын

My guess is that few Amiga users today that gets the new HW actually knows how to use any of those tools. I used to use Imagine, LightWave and ImageFX a lot back in the late 90s on my super-expanded Amiga 1200/060. My main thing was music though, using Octamed Soundstudio making multitrack music with a mix of 8/16 bit samples. Knock on wood though... my Vampire V4 will be shipped to me next week. :)

@TemalCageman 3 жыл бұрын

@@erebostd It's a bit unstable, probably because of heat of the CF card when you do lots of file copying. Other than that, it is an amazing product. I have tested it with some of my 16+ channel Octamed Soundstudio tracks and it handles them way better than my original A1200/060. I have yet to play around with ImageFX or any of the 3D softwares. :) EDIT: Here is a recording of TBLs Starstruck demo released 2006 that was running under WinUAE. They released a proper 060 version of it a couple of years ago, and that is the version I recorded from my V4. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a8pifJOKp9SXaGg.html

Same thought: the raw speed improvment shows BIG numbers on benchmark BUT as any real user knows, what count is how much productive you get. Why owning a porshe if you only drive in the city at 50km/h max? The real interest of this power comes when doing computing intensive works like rendering or massive sound treatment. For 20 years old games, the speed improvment is none as they are already go to the fastest speed they can that is 50fps. Anyway have you more joy triggering the gun in quake at 50 fps or 200? Don't think so. Speed is not joy, marketers bypass critical thinking.
