OS4 port would be possible because of Nova.

Since coming back to the “Amiga” and in particular last year I haven’t really followed what OS4 was capable of but I was wondering if it could do something like this, from my research last night, as I believe it’s ahead of MorphOS for 3D.

I’d always assumed that is why Spencer was an OS4 release only.

Well, it's not like Entwickler-X released any of their games for MorphOS back when OS4 wasn't ahead of MorphOS in terms of 3D ;-)

> Nova

There seem to be some flaws in this diagram:

MorphOS:
- since MorphOS v3.0, TinyGL doesn't use Rave3D
- Rave3D and Goa3D are still there for Voodoo and Radeon R100/R200
- this means: Rave3D/Goa3D and TinyGL/Wazp3D should be disconnected
- 2D RTG API missing

AROS:
- Wazp3D uses Mesa3D, not Gallium3D directly
- 2D RTG API missing

AmigaOS (left side):
- "CyperGL" should be "CyberGL"
- Doesn't CyberGL use Rave3D?

AmigaOS (right side):
- MiniGL uses Warp3D, not P96 directly
- OpenGLES2 missing between Warp3D Nova and GL4ES
- MiniGL4GL4ES missing
- Didn't OS4 integrate all former P96 functions directly into their graphics.library at some point?
- Why are Warp3D Nova, OpenGLES2, GL4ES and MiniGL4GL4ES outside the box?
- Warp2D missing


Edit: adapted to new version of the diagram, mentioned missing Warp2D

Warp Nova and the OpenGL ES 2.0 layer are made by AEon, not included with AmigaOS 4.

Wazp3D is not included with MorphOS or AROS, yet it is inside their boxes. CyberGraphX, cgx3drave and CyberGL are not included with AmigaOS, yet they are inside its box. Double standards?
