2018 you reckon? So a few years before MorphOS x86 is released then.

I'm perfectly in topic: it's about OS4FE. NOT about real hardware. NOT about "NG" hardware.

you just proved my point.

what does "close cooperation" with cloanto means..

It means that this way Hyperion is using an already existing, and working well, digital download platform, provided by Cloanto, which is well known to the Amiga community.
Quote:
and the digital download isn't just for emulation, it is available for all classic users.

Well, that's only in theory. Real "classic" users need an optical media to install OS4FE, which AFAIK is sold at the same price of the digital one. So, if you can wait some days for the delivery, you'll get the CD + support stuff, which is much better than downloading the ISO and printing yourself the manual and the CD.

Last but not really least, OS4FE was already available to "classic" users. So, people who wanted to buy and use it, presumably did it well long time ago, after that this o.s. version was introduced.

The digital delivery option arrived only recently, just after a while that WinUAE introduced support for OS4FE. Is it a coincidence? It's clearly not. Especially if you think that OS4FE is available in digital delivery format ONLY for "classic" users, which should be some order of magnitude quite below the total number of people which have "NG" hardware. Here I'm speaking of "classic" users which have real hardware.

You don't need to be Sherlock Holmes to deduct that it was made intentionally by Hyperion to support customers which are using WinUAE to run OS4FE, which seems to be selling A LOT, if the numbers are reporting something like a 10:1 ratio between "classic" and "NG" platforms.

But the company still doesn't want to remove the 128MB system memory limit, refusing the introduce the already existing patch/branch in the master o.s. tree. Removing it will GREATLY enhance the OS4FE experience, as "classic" users can tell you. Which I've to remind to all that are regular, PAYING, Hyperion customers...

In short: it'll be very very good to have an update for this.

I do understand his frustration.
I mean there is a LOT of trivial small bugs that has been reported right after FE was released which perfectly could have made their way into AmiUpdate to both fix the actual problems and give the users some kind of indication that the project isn't totaly abandoned.

I can understand Guillaume too..
but there is one sure thing that everyone need to consider ... there are few people who working on Amiga OS , like on MorphOs . Every time one new machine come the forces are concentrate to the new machines and this means stop working on patching the old ... I hope more devs will join the Team .

You can't compare the handling to what the MorphOS team does even though they are limited in developers aswell. They do a major release a year follwed by a "bugfix"/patch release the same year. Then you know there will be fixes soon for the reported problems.
They don't have anything in the system that resembles to AmiUpdate with the OS itself.

OS4 on the other hand doesn't have a straight track record how the stuff is released so you never know when/if a problem will be fixed. The good thing is that they do have AmiUpdate which can be used to push small fixes to the users but since that havn't been used at all except for the MUI-releases (which can't be considered a part of the system).

os4 managment fail itself one more time. keep it up ! :))

@tlosm
Nope, just mos devs follow strong logic and do things logical, without emotianal and radical chages, which in end need to support, and if you can not provide such support you should not integrate new stuff in the first place. I.e. like os4 managment group do: introduce amiupdate to deliver os updates, but even seems even never ever thinks that someone should support all of this all the time. only amiga.

Or how it was .. ah ! adding of bunch of images from "mediacore" unrelated to amigaos , but just make iso bigger :) that was cool too :))

I didn't insulted Betatesters (neither you) in my post, so keep calm.

The facts are simply that standard users have a not supported system and betatesters receive fixes/updates since 1 year.
Therefore, yes, standard users are not supported !

Where is the insult ? Why do you speak of developpers ?
To conclude, you missed my point nevertheless I will not qualified your reply of "stupid"


@tlosm
Yes, X5000, Tabor... but as written earlier in this thread, betatested fixes since 1 year are for all platforms.

Correct, but "just after a while" doesn't means immediately after.

When the PearPC JITer was used, OS4 emulation wasn't that good. It's only when Toni (and another coder, AFAIK) switched to QEMU that the situation changed considerably, and OS4 was more usable.

Silly? Is systematically attacking other users allowed in this forum?

In theory there should be a TOS, and I'm correctly using a tool which this forum requires to signal cases which are infringing it.

In theory...

PearPC (interpretive) was used since August 2014, QEMU followed in September 2014. Digital download of AmigaOS4 was introduced in December 2015, more than year after OS4 became useable in WinUAE...

Was that necessary?
BTW - MorphOS is ready for the X5000 , where is your OS?

There will be no MorphOS x86 (32 bIt), but x64 (64 bit). And while this may indeed take a while, MorphOS ppc isn't dead in the meantime, nor renders uselss with the advent of MorphOS x64. But while ppc is a dead end (have you seen the poor results of the X5000?), x64 isn't.
It's a huge task to move to x64, which costs lots of "blood, sweat and tears" (and compability), but once done MorphOS at least has a chance for the future while those staying with ppc definitely haven't.
