Here are some news concerning the AmiDARK Engine project on MorphOS.

The actual *internal* version do no more crash on MorphOS when running 2D & 3D demonstrations.
I have fixed 3D issues concerning transparency.
And now, I have 2 big issues to fix (Timer & Keyboards)
Keyboard is partially fixed (the key=27 that should be escape is not returned by GLUT functions ...)
When these 2 issues will be fixed, I may probably release the 1st officiel Alpha of the AmiDARK Engine for MorphOS.

In the wait,
Here is a small demo showing the 3D running on MorphOS with 3D objets, 3D Objects instancies, 3D transparency & 2D images :

(Use spacebar to quit the demo)

Here is a snapshot of the demo : http://files.amidark-engine.com/FlyingFeatherDemo.jpg

I don't have a mos machine setup just now so can't try the demo but the screeny looks good.

so what is your amidark engine for the lazy people?

I've tried and I found your work very impressive. Nice work!!

@TGR :
AmiDARK Engine is a Game Development Kit that can help create new applications for AmigaOS4 & MorphOS.
It provides new commands sets to use with the OS SDK.
Look for example what DarkGDK is (http://www.thegamecreators.com/?m=view_product&id=2128)
Imagine nearly the same product on our Amiga's with OS4 & MOS :)
In the archive, you have the .c source code for the demo (that use the AmiDARK Engine) ... Imagine that you need less than 100 lines of code to create this demo ;)

@Jambalah :
Thank you :)

Kindest Regards,
AmiDARK

i'm struggling to understand how the timers works on amiga.
have you some c examples to reccommend?

@raistlin77it :
My Timer handler functions works perfectly on AmigaOS 4.x but on MorphOS ... Results are a bit ... Weirds ... I don't understand why ...
I must investigate on this and when it'll be fixed, I'll share some informations on how it work.

@All :
But, if someone already know how it work, please, feel free to share the informations as soon as you can ;)

I've written a small example on how I'm using it.
There are multiple derivations possible but the concept is always the same.

Check the code here: http://www.yomgui.fr/timer_ex.c

Compile it using command: gcc -noixemul -Wall timer_ex.c

Just run the a.out, CTRL-C to stop.

Note: I release my code in the Public Domain

@YomGui :
Thank you for sharing your sample.
It will be studied carefully :)

EDIT :
YomGui, I've checked your source code sample and, I've done some minor changes in my Timer.Device setup.
Now I can use Timer.Device with no problem.
Thank you.

Kindest Regards,
AmiDARK
