Excellent news! I can't wait to test the new WarpOS compatibility, and to show the updated Os4 on the Codex Alpe Adria show next month :)

warpup suport ??? ehe, didnt beleave that this will bee ind it, was int it warp os warpper ore something like that


Well, you can simply start e.g. Wipeout and it will run. The WarpUpWarp3D interaction is a bit flakey still, especially on the Radeon. As usual, we've put the major stress on new features, and tend to not look back too much

Well it looks as though Amiga OS4 will beat Longhorn to the punch and by more than a year. This is great news.

All:

Be prepared on that you p96 modes will be gone and you are stuck with a non functional odd color 640*480 mode. To solve the wrong colors start screenmode prefs and select maximum number of colors. Save it.

And it might be an idea to either print out the installation document or copy it to another computer where you can view it before installing the update. AmiPDF can't view it properly once your p96 modes are gone.

The document explains how to get the p96 modes back. (I haven't been able to yet because of crashing and not copying the document to another computer before installing)

@Orgin:

Thanks for the tip, I'll backup my Picasso96 preferences before doing the update.
