Not much of AmigaOne news I reckon, all the demos got the AGA cathegory assigned in the info. Or does any of it run on OS4?

Looks pretty impressive. I'll have to re-assemble my A1260T and see how far they've managed to push the evvelope this time.

I do miss this kind of thing from my classic days.

I'd like to see some of this talent & creativity on OS4.

@FuZion

I don't actually own actually have Micro A1 (XE man myself) but I think it'd be pretty cool to see what a scener could do by directly programming the Radeon chip on a Micro.

It'll also be cool to see what can be done with a coldfire pushing the AGA chipset.

I know what you mean FuZion.
The boundaries the likes of TBL have pushed the AGA chipset to these days are staggering.
Imagine if they had been doing that 8 years ago!

Rude!

Unfortunately, I can't run Kilofix/IRIS properly. The first seconds (the 3D scene) look really impressive, but then it always freezes when the tree is in the center. The music keeps playing though and I can exit the demo.

Anyone having similar problems?

@Rob & Rudei

I'm with you there Rob. There's some stunning looking effects on an AGA machine. Blows me away what those chips can do really. If someone could really tap into a Radeon & have the grunt behind the A1 to number crunch, we'd see a different side of what the Amiga can do (Well, kind of. I know it wouldn't be like AGA but it'd still be sweet).

FuZion.
