Amiga Forever Plus Edition

   

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 be surprised if you saw your PC booting with the "Classic" Amiga OS, instead of Windows?

The Amiga Forever Plus Edition CD contains the full content of the Online Edition, and much more (about everything mentioned on this site, except for the videos on the Amiga Forever DVDs).

The Plus Edition is available in a downloadable CD ISO image, which you can burn to CD with your CD-recording software, and on a CD-ROM which is included with the Premium Edition of Amiga Forever.

You can use the Plus Edition CD in different ways:

  • An installer allows you to easily set everything up on Windows
  • The Amiga emulation and OS also run from CD, either from Windows or booting from the CD itself (no operating system required)
  • Cross-platform components can be used on the most popular computing platforms (Mac OS, GNU/Linux, etc.)

The Plus Edition CD includes the following items which are not part of the Online Edition:

  • More than 200 MB of preinstalled games and demoscene productions
  • OS ROM file versions v. 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 2.04 and 2.05 (Workbench 2.1 uses the 2.0x ROMs)
  • OS disk images (ADF files) v. 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 and 2.1
  • Amiga 1000 boot ROM
  • CDTV extended ROM (CDTV uses normal 1.3 boot ROM)
  • CD³² ROM and extended ROM
  • Amiga Forever Boot Floppy Disk
  • Ability to boot a PC from the Amiga Forever Plus Edition CD (El Torito specification)

Additional ROM and System Content

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.

Personal Paint Included

The Amiga Forever Plus Edition CD, which contains an Amiga Rock Ridge file system to carefully preserve the original Amiga file system attributes, also replaced the Personal Paint 7.1 CD as the official up-to-date reference medium for Personal Paint, inclusive of tutorials and full documentation. This data, intended for use on "real" Amiga computers, is contained in the "Amiga" directory at the root of the CD.
