As some of you may have read over the past days, there has been an ownership dispute over the Freenode network. The IRC network has been used by MorphOS and many other projects over the past decades as a platform for discussion and support. The dispute led to the exodus of most former Freenode staff from the network and the founding of a new network: Libera Chat

In light of these events, the official MorphOS IRC channel has been migrated and can now be accessed by visiting #morphos on irc.libera.chat. The old Freenode channel will stay online for the time being but could be closed down by the Freenode owners at any time.

The WArMUp association is pleased to offer the new version of Chrysalis package for MorphOS 3.15 (23/05/2021).

This pack allows you to easily and quickly install, just after a new installation of MorphOS, a complete and preconfigured environment.

It contains a selection of software, games and emulators for MorphOS. The ISO image is freely downloadable from MorphOS-Storage.

Thank you very much to all the developers and users who participate from both near or far to help improve this pack.

The top goal scoring superstar heroes of the code business are at it again, presenting the result of more than 7 months of hard work which finally aids to the return of a legend on the Amiga, bigger and better than ever before!

The Total Pack is as complete as it gets, not only accumulating more than two decades of content but also introducing features never been seen in the past such as a totally new Gameplay mode, tactic viewer comparison and more, under a modernised and professionally developed application!
