The jump in operating system capability and quality from 1.3 to 2.0 is really substantial, so I want to switch, especially since I’m doing the ECS upgrade to my Rev6A A500 anyway so it would make sense, and 3.1 is way less compatible with early games than even 2.0 without the same leap in quality so it makes sense to stop at 2.0.

My question is, exactly how compatible is KS/WB 2.0? Is there anywhere I can find a list of games that are/aren’t compatible? Thanks!

    I’m not sure about compatibility lists but from what I understand, it’s only a handful of early and badly behaved software that requires 1.3. It’s probably better to just install 3.1 and use Relokick as needed to run incompatible software.

        I’m not actually sure what the minimum requirements are for 3.1, except I know that 3.1 upgrades were sold for the A500/A2000 so it should work on a classic configuration. I know that the newer Hyperion updates to AmigaOS raise the requirements quite a lot, so I wouldn’t try going to 3.1.4+ without an accelerator/fastram.
