Tornado 3D PPC version working under MorphOS or Amiga OS 4.0?
Has anyone tried to run Tornado 3D on PowerPC (MorphOS or Amiga OS 4.0)? Anyone still have contact with the developers?

I have tried Tornado3D under MorphOS and it doesn't start because it
tries to access the potgo.resource which doesn't exist on this system. Real3D works fine with a little tweaking as does Aladdin4D and Cinema4D. Imagine has some gui bugs that cause it to be unusable (v5.0 PPC). LightWave works ok but the render display is a little awkward to exit from since it's on several screens. (Right-Amiga m and then esc etc.) I like LightWave and Real3D the best on MorphOS from what I have tried. There is also Blender3D of course but I haven't really gotten into it yet and the render quality doesn't seem as nice to me. |

After few tests I can run tornado 3d demo version on Morphos, works really fast and stable but with all the limits of demo version ( not save objects or scenes).
Looking for more information about Tornado 3D, I’d find that Eyelight in 1998 sale a special DraCo version . I think this DraCo special version was because no CIA available in DraCo computer and maybe the DraCo computer has the same problem that Morphos or AmigaO4, some missing resources on parallel port for use dongle. Actual cracked versions of Tornado 3D only run on real Amiga or emulated Amigas like winuae or uae , but not start on Morphos or AmigaO4. Maybe someone with knowledge can patch actual cracked Tornado3D for application launch on Amiga NG, or maybe find a DraCo version that it’s possible ,no need Dongle an only use serial number? For me lightwave is the best amiga 3d app , but I think that tornado is the most modern and fullset native amiga 3D app for use with Morphos or AmigaO4.

I'm always interested in anyone getting Tornado 3D working on MorphOS, AmigaOS 4.1 & even AROS. If someone could track down the original developer with the source code that would even be better.
