How many platforms you know to have passed through deep s**t, and still, after almost 30 years, are struggling to get as up-to-dated as possible, even with apparently insignificant new features? This is a unique case in this hi-tech world, where a phone would cost over a thousand bucks and gets older after a month or two. I mean. Can you think about it? It is just purely incredible. Yet, we all, as mankind, can still learn something with this incredible Amiga: the lesson is that we don't need to run as fast as we can, but to care about what we really love. Thanks Amiga.
This is amazing! The developers did exactly what was needed. I have used AmigaOS 3.5 and AmigaOS 3.9 with all Boingbags. But there the update was without a system. There was a feeling that the developers just grabbed on to everything and changed based on what was possible. In AmigaOS 3.2, I see that the developers thought at first, then tried to implement new features so as to make the system usable and to make it look elegant.
Awesome news!! :-) super convenient to see most 3rd party features I used over the last couple of years are now included and fully supported in WB 3.2!!
Yeah, it is a very nice update! Some of these features have been available as 3rd party apps, but it is great to have them built in and there is some cool new stuff as well. The Help is loaded with great information. Thanks so much for watching Gadget!
@1:05 easy installation; if your intention is to replace the kickstart roms (3.1.4 -> 3.2) don't install the new ones until AFTER the software installation is done or you might get an error message that the installation software can't find some libraries/routines.
HI Bill ! it's awesome features ! scroll mouse wow ! now I can use my Logitech beauty mouse, so many new fonctions and made more user friendly , Amiga Alive !!! , by the way a friend tried to install on a CDTV and have issue (but extended CDTV) , do you think I could install on my lovely CD32 TF330 ! let's do this thing :) superb video !
Thanks Thai! I bet it will work on a CD32 but I don't know for sure. There are CDTV and CDTV Extended ROMs with 3.2, but I think they are experimental? I haven't looked into that yet as I don't have one
I will just add that most of the retailers offer you the files on the CD as a zip archive if you ask for it. So you can just download it after the payment goes through.
Amigabill, i recently dug out my old a1200, whitened all the keys, cleaned up the case, ordered a gotek with oled display, 3.2 roms and o.s. but cant find my mouse, so advice what 3 button mice do you know to work with all 3 buttons in 3.2 natively, i noticed you using one in this video ?
I can't get sound with a 3.2 installation with my Mediator PCI expansion.Used all the AHI resources with no success. I currently dual boot 3.9 and 3.2.1. I have an A1200 with a 1260 Blizzard. I've run out of ideas to make the sound work. Is something interfering with AHI? Songplayer gives a fail with song player.aub with Snoopdos.I cannot figure this out. I even installed 3.2 over the working 3.9 and still sound was absent. So it's not a configuration. Any ideas? I notice the 3.2.1 Med report says 3 pci boards where the 3.9 lists 4. My Radeon and intercard work however. Do you get sound with Paula with 3.2. I notice no AHI is included. Thanks.
i take it, its probably safer to start a new install from scratch rather than transplant it over a prior version you have patched to the back teeth with mcp/visualprefs/and the multitude of other patches which are likely now obsolete or incompatible?
got 3.2, does anyone else have issues with wb3.2 and toolmanager2? it runs successfully, no errors, but no menu entries or docks are created, basically nothing there, it works but it doesnt at the same time.
hi please let me know if in 2021 the Amiga is able to do everything a PC or a Mac can do but 3D gaming. 1. I like to see if the Amiga is able to generate documents like .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx, . ppt, .psd, .mp3, .wav, .opus, .obj, .3DS Basically can an Amiga integrate into a working environment where PC and Mac are in use? 2. Also what about memory protection? For years the initial A500 and A1200 were plagged with the problem that any program writting into another program memory was creating a guru meditation. Is this now solved in 100% of situation? I mean if I run a 1982 demo coded with an org directive so running from a fixed static address in RAM will it trash the system RAM and require a reboot or will the system able to virtualise its memory address block so it don't touch other process memory? Thanks to let me know.
Great video. The only problem with this CD edition is that I haven't seen a CD-ROM in any computer since at least 7 years. Waiting for the digital edition.
Did they fix the screw-up with 'no icon.library' errors? Boot Battle Chess from floppy with KS3.1.4 and see what happens. I made my own 1MB ROM to fix that issue. All floppy games that require icon.library to boot to workbench will fail. A serious screw-up! They need to get smart and provide a 1MB ROM that includes icon.library. It's not difficult to mod any Amiga to make the KS 1MB.
It's funny how Amiga users get excited over features present in any other OS for ages. "you can put the window off the screen!", "you can resize from any border!". Wow. Truly innovative and soo unseen :)
With the move windows off-screen feature, I'm just afraid that there could be a badly behaving program out there that would try to _draw_ off-screen when its window is.
Finally, when the channel is updated, this video is great, Bill. I am an Amiga enthusiast from China (few people in Asia know about Commodore Amiga and its history, and there is almost no information in Chinese), and I am still waiting for my AOS3.2 CD to be shipped to my home. This new operating system is the biggest upgrade since AmigaOS 3.0. The core improvements of the system far exceed Commodore's 3.1 and H&P's 3.5/3.9. My interest in Amiga has been ignited again.
That is so great to hear! Thank you! It is always cool hearing from Amiga fans in Asia too! It is usually Europe, USA, OZ, and a bit of South America. I hope you get yours soon. Thanks for the kind words and enjoy!
yeah it is a great time to upgrade Andy! And having Kickstart 3.1.4 or 3.2 helps a lot with accelerator cards like the TF as well as being able to use larger HD partitions
Thanks so much Doug! Oh wow installing a new version of an OS in 2021 on a computer from 1985 with cutting edge FPGA tech is mind blowing. Looking forward to the video!
An an iPhone user, I'm already happy that my phone gets around 5 years of software updates (OS and kernel updates, not just security updates)... But to see updates for Amiga OS *37 YEARS* after initial release puts any other vendor to shame!
Ciao and thank you for your nice Video, i'm new at your Channel.. i was an Amiga User from late 1989-1996, great Times, i've created my first Desktop Wallpaper and some Tracker Music with Protracker and Oktalyzer, now i'm 55 and a Debian Linux User since late 1998, and doing some Desktop Wallpaper in my free time for the Amiga Computer, maybe i have to upload them at amigalook .. many greetings from brunswick in germany and please stay safe 🙃
My Amiga 1200 is equipped with KS3.2 roms. Yet I had an issue installing OS3.2. I reached out to Hyperion several times through mail and Facebook, and never had a single response at all. Nor have they activated my forum account, even if their forum seems pretty dead anyway. While I admire the spirit to keep the Amiga alive, this is really a terrible company for their customers. I decided I'll not buy from them again and just burn my own roms if I need them. Sorry, but they just should respond to people that bought their products. Just my .02$. Apart from that the product seems pretty solid! I never got the ADF mounting to work, but there a several other options to fix that. It really brings somewhat modern and taken as granted functions to the Amiga, and that's certainly great!
I got mine on CD as I am going to use it on my A500+ with the ACA 500+ and my A1200 with the ACA1233n. It is more disks to use. I winder what OS 3.3 will bring.
You need 3.1 as a base, 3.2 components can be loaded into ram on first boot. Having physical 3.2 ROM will help on systems with little ram and give you some nice features and larger hard drive support without hassle.
@@elmariachi5133 mostly yes, we have a faster generic 68k picture.datatype, in 3.9 you had an optional warpup version of the picture.datatype which would benefit only if you had an 040, with 060 or under emulation the current updated solution should be optimal, includes many essential fixes too.
Ooh! This is great! Thanks Bill. I had to do a fresh install because the installer wouldn’t overwrite some of my files.. (I expect I messed up permissions at some point in WinUAE, oooops) Ive been putting off finishing the install as I know I have so many little things to fix/add. This has encouraged me to finish! 😄 it looks great!
Oh interesting Mixels. Maybe the permissions are your issue. I did both a clean install and an install over 3.1 with no problem and I did it to an .hdf file and well as a folder. So far so good. But one thing I just noticed is that the Iconify button isn't available on the install I did over 3.1. It is there on the clean install. Hummmmm
@@TheGuruMeditationThat’s weird! Hopefully an easy fix. 🙂 i think it should be easy enough for me to replicate what I had in 3.1.4 … I made a back up so can reference that in WinUAE.. (It’s really things like roadshow, the plipbox, and the extra serial port that took me a while to figure out first time around I’m semi dreading, ahh, I should start taking notes when I’m installing stuff!)
That window resizing from any border is a looooong time coming for AmigaOS. We were wishing for this eons ago! Glad it's finally there. Same goes for the ability to move windows off screen.
Resizing from a border makes sense. I've seen new users on Amiga try to drag those. However, I think changing the behaviour of the titlebar was a bad choice, as you could too easily resize a window by mistake when you wanted to move it. (which I've done numerous times on Windows ...)
@@FindecanorNotGmail I've done that before as well. Maybe they could make it so that you have to hold one of the "Amiga" keys to resize while using the mouse so that default behavior is to just grab the title bar.
It's just what the AmigaOS needed. Integrate all the improvements that we previously made through patches and third-party software. Thanks for this good video!! Greetings!!
Yep. When i first installed it it tried the window re-size and and dragg off screen and was wondering why they didn't work. I am surprised they don't default to the on position
I think... Before praising a "new" system, there should be some public available tests of it... The report I have got so far is that it is unstable. It makes WinUAE crash randomly, it does not work well with some applications. AmiStart, MagicMenu and DirectoryOpus5 are some of the complaints I have heard, mainly locks some of the system. I would wish someone made an unbiased review on how it really play along with the rest of the application base, because beside the fancy HELP, Scrollwheel and whatnot, it is useless if it do not work as intended... I do not own this myself and I too was into the hype and was thinking of get my hands on it. But based on the feedback I have got, I will not buy it, until I know it really works as intended. And I suggest others also make sure of it before a purschase, but it is up to you.
MagicMenu 2.30 (7.8.2000) working for me on 3.2 so far, toolmanager2 however "runs" without failures but produces no tool menu entry or docks, so far thats my only issue using 3.2. also im using FS-UAE, instead of winuae (easier for me using fs-uae and throw my setup from pc to pi) no crashes yet.
Thank you to the awesome Fratic Family! 3.2 is really cool. Great thought, but putting it in the startup sequence will still boot to Workbench but have it mounted in Workbench on startup. It won't read it as a disk in DF0 with a boot bkock
@@TheGuruMeditation Ah I misunderstood what you were saying. I thought your goal was to mount certain disks on Workbench at boot. 🤦🏻♂️ I understand now what you meant. And of course that won’t work for that. Ah well. It’s good that Gotek is still a great contender too. 👍🕹️
Nice review. Btw, this "pretty interesting" shell feature that pastes a file's location when you drag to the shell window has been available in wshell for 33 years. And windows still can't be dragged in realtime? Come on ... ;)
Your virtual drive is a little full :) I have to say the window resizing and ADF support are BIG improvements that have been lacking. Looks like a great update (so far).
02:19 What USB/DB9 adapter do you use and is your mouse a USB- or USB/PS2 mouse? I tried scroll wheel with some older USB-only Logitech gaming mouses (mice? ^^) and Microsoft Intellimouse Optical (PS2 and USB) using a mouSTer adapter. No success! And yes, I did mark the "Scroll Wheel Enabled" option in IControl! 🤔

Oh interesting Mixels. Maybe the permissions are your issue. I did both a clean install and an install over 3.1 with no problem and I did it to an .hdf file and well as a folder. So far so good. But one thing I just noticed is that the Iconify button isn't available on the install I did over 3.1. It is there on the clean install. Hummmmm
@@TheGuruMeditationThat’s weird! Hopefully an easy fix. 🙂 i think it should be easy enough for me to replicate what I had in 3.1.4 … I made a back up so can reference that in WinUAE.. (It’s really things like roadshow, the plipbox, and the extra serial port that took me a while to figure out first time around I’m semi dreading, ahh, I should start taking notes when I’m installing stuff!)
@@MixelsLab Ha ha I hear you! I learn how to do something at the time I need to, then I forget!
50Hz video :-O
That window resizing from any border is a looooong time coming for AmigaOS. We were wishing for this eons ago! Glad it's finally there. Same goes for the ability to move windows off screen.
Agreed! Good things come to those who wait...36 years ha ha! Thanks for watching JWTHH. Great seeing you as always
@@TheGuruMeditation Hey, didn't I see you at the 8 Bit Guy's new video? :)
Resizing from a border makes sense. I've seen new users on Amiga try to drag those. However, I think changing the behaviour of the titlebar was a bad choice, as you could too easily resize a window by mistake when you wanted to move it. (which I've done numerous times on Windows ...)
@@FindecanorNotGmail I've done that before as well. Maybe they could make it so that you have to hold one of the "Amiga" keys to resize while using the mouse so that default behavior is to just grab the title bar.
@The Guru Meditation whats the program you use on your real amiga to mount adf images? (that you mention on the video) Thanks!
Great question Retromania. I use GoADF. It is shareware and available on AmiNet
If I recall correctly, I think the "Better Workbench" or "Best Workbench" unofficial upgrade packages also have tools for mounting .adf files
It's just what the AmigaOS needed. Integrate all the improvements that we previously made through patches and third-party software. Thanks for this good video!! Greetings!!
Thanks for this, Bill. Just installed it yesterday, and a couple of its features feel a bit hidden I noticed.
Yep. When i first installed it it tried the window re-size and and dragg off screen and was wondering why they didn't work. I am surprised they don't default to the on position
I think...
Before praising a "new" system, there should be some public available tests of it...
The report I have got so far is that it is unstable. It makes WinUAE crash randomly, it does not work well with some applications. AmiStart, MagicMenu and DirectoryOpus5 are some of the complaints I have heard, mainly locks some of the system.
I would wish someone made an unbiased review on how it really play along with the rest of the application base, because beside the fancy HELP, Scrollwheel and whatnot, it is useless if it do not work as intended...
I do not own this myself and I too was into the hype and was thinking of get my hands on it.
But based on the feedback I have got, I will not buy it, until I know it really works as intended. And I suggest others also make sure of it before a purschase, but it is up to you.
MagicMenu 2.30 (7.8.2000) working for me on 3.2 so far, toolmanager2 however "runs" without failures but produces no tool menu entry or docks, so far thats my only issue using 3.2. also im using FS-UAE, instead of winuae (easier for me using fs-uae and throw my setup from pc to pi) no crashes yet.
Glad to see people are still supporting the Amiga. I used to have a 2000 back in the day.
Great round up Bill! I’m sold! I wonder if putting an ADF in WBStartup mounts it on Workbench at boot…
Thank you to the awesome Fratic Family! 3.2 is really cool. Great thought, but putting it in the startup sequence will still boot to Workbench but have it mounted in Workbench on startup. It won't read it as a disk in DF0 with a boot bkock
@@TheGuruMeditation Copy it to RAD: after mounting.
@@polluks2 ooooo I have to try that. Yeah great idea
@@TheGuruMeditation Ah I misunderstood what you were saying. I thought your goal was to mount certain disks on Workbench at boot. 🤦🏻♂️ I understand now what you meant. And of course that won’t work for that. Ah well. It’s good that Gotek is still a great contender too. 👍🕹️
Nice review. Btw, this "pretty interesting" shell feature that pastes a file's location when you drag to the shell window has been available in wshell for 33 years. And windows still can't be dragged in realtime? Come on ... ;)
🤩
AmigaLove!
The Great Amiga Bill showing off the great new features of Amiga OS 3.2. Thank you...
Aw, you are too kind Brad. Thanks for everything man 🙌
Your virtual drive is a little full :) I have to say the window resizing and ADF support are BIG improvements that have been lacking. Looks like a great update (so far).
Just saw it, great video loved the all the features you went over, can't wait to order 3.2 for my Amiga
Right on OHROM! Enjoy my man!
Great Video Bill 🤘Still waiting on my Order From Alinea Computer Germany
Thanks RP! I hope you get it soon!
I bought my copy last night along with Amikit XE Vampire edition :D
ooooooo Nice! I am looking forward to trying AmiKitX on a V4 as well. I have heard great things about it
Nice to see everything on one CD now instead of them milking the users 50 bucks for each version.
I agree. It is a good move
02:19 What USB/DB9 adapter do you use and is your mouse a USB- or USB/PS2 mouse? I tried scroll wheel with some older USB-only Logitech gaming mouses (mice? ^^) and Microsoft Intellimouse Optical (PS2 and USB) using a mouSTer adapter. No success! And yes, I did mark the "Scroll Wheel Enabled" option in IControl! 🤔
FUNNY FACT
If you get rid of the A in Amiga it almost looks like
THE 3.2 AMIGOS
LOL
The 3 Amigos Part 2 - The 3.2 Amigo's
DUSTY HAS A SON WITH THAT MEXICAN CHICK AND HE'S THE 0.2
LOL
3.1 was the last AmigaOS I have used decades ago. These are pretty neat updates, and I am amazed someone bothered to release this. I wish I still had my A1200 😢
Great. As long you don’t have a Mac - because there’s not been one of those with an optical drive in a LOOOOOOOOOONG time... :-(
-Dx
Yeah you have to grab a USB optical drive with Mac. Mac don't like the physical media!
@@TheGuruMeditation Or they could just sell a digital download version... :-P
@@Xalior I guess some people are never happy. 🙄 It's not as if DVDs are dead, so having a DVD drive is hardly unusual. Some people actually like to have a physical product, not just a download.
@@another3997 Yes, but it doesn't have to be an "either"/"or" thing - buying dedicated hardware so I can test software _in_ _an_ _emulator_ is... not very green, as well as being bonkers! ;-)

9:45 then you should only show all new features that was not possible with addons before.buy buy all addons you used and no thx those creators. still why its amigaos. its still worksnech and and and all those 3.5-9 what ever hihi xD absolite. new rom coming soon wait for it. take ur money. easy money. should this be free update. no lets take money
Amigaaaa!!! YeeeeHaaaaa!!! :D
YeeeeeeeHaaaaaaaaa! My man!
You had me at scroll wheel. Off to buy 3.2! Thanks so much for this.
It is so good! Love that scroll wheel
@@TheGuruMeditation How is the scroll wheel function implemented? When it is not supported by hardware. Will this work with Jerry +?
thanks, PL
My pleasure. Thanks for watching!
Great Video about the new features Amiga OS 3.2. Thank you ...
I look forward to see more videos from you
Thanks so much
Jürgen I really appreciate that. I will certainly be making a lot more videos
