MorphOS: Freespace - The Great War / Update to Freespace 2
Under the title link, Michal 'kiero' Wozniak has released a MorphOS port of "Freespace: The Great War" as well as an update to Freespace 2.
Among other things, the update offers a better video playback as well as an improved high-resolution mode. To activate the latter, you must enter "Videocard=OpenGL (1024x768)" in the .ini file.
The MorphOS version of "Freespace: The Great War" requires MorphOS 1.4.x, 3D drivers and the powersdl.library by Ilkka Lehtoranta. Though 256 MB RAM should suffice in the author's opinion, he cannot guarantee that everything already runs properly with it. A Radeon graphics card is strongly recommended.
Network games are not available in the existing version. Moreover, only the "Silent Threat" mod was tested.
For the installation, you need the 2 CD version of the game (the English and the Polish versions were tested). Afterwards, copy the files of the MorphOS archive to the desired directory and start the installation script.
In principle, the port works with the Amiga version of Freespace as well, however, the films here were converted to another format, so that these are not played back. (snx) (Translation: cad)

Hyperion nimmt zu McEwen-Interview Stellung
In a recent Interview, Bill McEwen from Amiga Inc. raised a few questions regarding the legal status of AmigaOS 4.0. We approached Hyperion's Management and asked for a statement concerning the legal issues mentioned by McEwen. Below you'll find the reply from Evert Carton, Management Partner of Hyperion Entertainment VOF:
Judging from some of the e-mails we received, the recent comments by the
Amiga Inc. management seem to have created confusion with respect to the
development and availability of Amiga OS 4.0.
As managing partner of Hyperion Entertainment VOF, I would like to take
this opportunity to assure our customers that development of Amiga OS
4.0 is entirely in Hyperion's hand alone and that the Amiga OS 4.0
development team is proceeding very well indeed as may become obvious
during the upcoming shows in Italy and Sacramento, U.S.A.
There are no development hold-ups of any kind and we are in fact
anticipating an initial "final release candidate" by the end of 2006
provided suitable hardware is available for sale at that time. You may
recall the fact that Hyperion held back on the official release of Amiga
OS 4.0 in 2005 in order to have it coincide with the availability of
suitable target hardware.
Several third party hardware manufacturers have indicated that they are
working on a wide range of different suitable PPC hardware platforms. We
will leave it to them to communicate about these projects in due time.
This extra time has given the OS 4 development team the opportunity to
not only polish the final product even more but to incorporate very
substantial and modern functionality such as the new, extremely
reliable, modern and powerful memory subsystem in conjunction with new
yet to be revealed functionality.
We will specifically not comment on any legal issues as raised by Amiga
Inc. management as these matters are finally and at our explicit and
repeated request being handled by both parties' respective lawfirms and
we find it highly inappropriate to publically comment on these matters
in the meanwhile. Suffice it to say that some statements by Amiga Inc.
were clearly in contradiction with the views held by Hyperion's
attorneys both on a legal and on a factual level.
We thank you for your patience and the continued support of the Amiga OS
4.0 project which we are dedicated to complete as soon as possible.
Evert Carton
