Release Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Have you ever wondered what Workbench 1.0 looked like, or how the most
influential personal computing magazine of the 1980s introduced the Amiga to the
world? Would you (or a colleague) be surprised if you saw your PC booting as an
Amiga, instead of Windows?
The Plus Edition in brief:
Includes all features mentioned on this site, except for the videos (which are
on the 3 DVDs included with the Premium Edition). Includes Amiga Forever Game
Pack I (more than 100 games). Delivered as an easy-to-use downloadable installer
for Windows. After installation on a Windows system, it is possible to create
(via Build Image, in the Tools menu) a DVD ISO image which includes run-from-DVD,
KX Light boot-from-DVD and other cross-platform content.
The Plus Edition includes the following items which are not part of the Value
Edition:
More than 300 MB of pre-installed games and demo-scene productions
OS ROM file versions v. 0.7, 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 2.04, 2.05 (Workbench 2.1 uses
the 2.0x ROMs), 3.1 and 3.X
OS disk images (ADF files) v. 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 2.1 and 3.1
Pre-installed Workbench 3.X environment, including dozens of award-winning
software packages and other add-ons
Amiga 1000, A590 and A4091 boot ROMs
CDTV extended ROM (CDTV uses normal 1.3 boot ROM)
CD32 ROM and extended ROM
Amiga Forever Boot Floppy Disk image
Would you like to see the evolution of the Amiga Workbench from version 1.0 up
to 3.X (in different styles, too), through all intermediate versions ever
released? With Amiga Forever Plus Edition you can. The ROM and operating system
files include all publicly released versions (except for those that were only
meant to run only in combination with a specific piece of hardware which is not
required in the hardware emulation, such as the A2024 monitor).
The CDTV and CD32 ROMs can be used to play CDTV and CD32 games, even booting
directly from a game CD.
If you decide to burn the Plus Edition DVD, which you can do at any time, you
can enjoy these additional features:
Portable environment to run the Amiga emulation and OS from DVD or USB devices
(on Windows systems).
Ability to boot a PC from the Amiga Forever Plus Edition DVD (no operating
system required, as per El Torito specification).
Cross-platform components can be used on the most popular computing platforms
(Mac OS, GNU/Linux, etc.)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What's New
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All Windows versions now come with a Windows Installer download
(no need to burn or mount an ISO image to access the installer, or to wait
for postal delivery).
New Build Image feature (Tools menu of Plus Edition), to create personalized
ISO images (burn to CD or DVD) and portable environments (e.g. to run from
USB storage). This is similar to the "old" Amiga Forever media, except that
the content can now be updated and customized.
Support for third-party "RP-Image" templates, to generate bootable content, etc.
Documentation is available.
New Restore System Files feature (Tools menu) to reset shared components
(Amiga ROM and OS files, system RP9s, etc.)
New RP9 thumbnail provider for Windows is pure eye candy.
This accompanies new and faster Open, Edit and Convert to RP9 commands
accessible directly from File Explorer, to offer a better content experience
outside the player.
Set personal rating for any title (not just catalogued ones)
New visual Screen Clip Editor, for easy adjustment of Amiga screen mode settings.
WinFellow is now available as an additional RetroPlatform-enabled emulation plug-in.
You can click any compatible title and select "Play with/WinFellow", or select
plug-in priority and additional options in the Amiga Forever Emulation settings.
Brand new Personal Paint 7.2 pre-installed in Workbench 3.X environment
Updated AROS and other content.
Enhanced RP9 Editor, with new media mount options and dozens of new features.
Integration with social networks for "Now Playing" updates, manual posts and
screen shot uploads.
