| Hello all,
I finally had the spare $29, my other projects are finally at a point of costing less, and got Amiga Forever installed. YAY!
Any suggestions as to setting it up for different uses?
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated ^_^.
(I also saw that it comes with a version of AROS, so I'm going to check that out too)
Thanks! |

Get a copy of OS4.1 final edition classic so you can try OS4 Lots of things work well only limitation I have found is there is no 3D support for OS4 games.
Also try
Amikit https://www.amikit.amiga.sk/

I am not sure what you mean by setting up for different uses. But what I always like of AF is its portability. Since it runs like a live DVD you can take it with you everywhere.
As a first step, if you are installing it on your HD, I would go through the set up and download the updates and then, as goldfish suggested, the other OSs that are emulated - like Amikit.

About to buy OS4... and there are several versions I see: one for SAM 440, one for Amiga One 500, one for Amiga One XE/SE Microa1, one "Final Edition Classic," and one for Sam460/Amiga One 500.
I know these are all for different motherboards, so does it matter which one I get for Amiga Forever? |

You will need the version for classic. WinUAE runs in the background and is emulating a classic amiga with a ppc accelerator, so that is the only version that will work. |
