Ho-ho-ho.

I think you need to adjust your expectations. :)

Gunnar has sort-of hinted we may see FPU sooner than later but the rest I wouldn't hold my breath for just yet.

The Gold 2 release is quite a major upgrade even if there is no FPU update in that release.

Merry Christmas all!

I'd also like an extra 128Gb of RAM, SATA and GPU ... all doable in the core yes ? ;-)

Sure it is, coming your way for Xmas 2026 ;-)

No, but seriously.. to OP.
Gold2 was meant to be released a while ago but I guess it needed further testing. You can check pretty much exactly the features it will bring in another thread called Gold2 roadmap.

But, please. We are in no position to demand ppl to spend the Xmas holidays tinkering with the core. They need a break and spend time with their families like the rest of us. If its late, its late.. We will wait.

Merry Xmas everyone and take it easy ;-)

I suppose we can double quote this to this Xmas with up to GOLD 2.5.

But I personally wish all the best to all people involved, its better to do work good! Spend time with your families and bring us much joy in next year also!

"Getting it done right" is a big deal.... I guess we just have to wait.

What are the alternatives? Nothing remotely similar to THIS!

This is going to be more amazing than even I thought that anyone would have been willing to go through an effort of achieving. After seeing that texture mapping video, MIND BLOWN!!!!!!

I want to thank and wish all of the Apollo Core developers, software coders and testers (+ anyone else involved) a very Merry Christmas!!!!

Also to all of you out there that bought into the dream early on and those still waiting (like myself) for some of the other boards that they will put out in the very near future!!!

Don't leave now, wait for the new terrific stuff that's soon to come out and know, that this IS "The Next Big Thing"!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just keep thinking "the Christmas present we really, really want, is the Vampire becoming the ENTRY LEVEL Amiga" and soon it will be!
