@bean [quote]Without giving a date all I can say is we are close to releasing a preview version of TuneNet for all to sample. When I say "preview" I mean a usable development version which people can also start building skins with, but with missing features, the odd bug and such like.[\quote] Ahhh... you mean "Microsoft style" Oh, any chance of tunenet ever sharing audio instead of hogging it? All other progams share AHI, eg. DVPlayer or AmigaAmp let AmIRC play it's beeps and farts, whereas tunenet blocks them.

@Antique
Try TVPaint V3.51 (it's free), ImageFX 4.5 (not free), Art Effect V3 (free), Art Effect 4 (15 euros)...
For arteffect look at Alinea's site, for TVPaint, iirc there's a copy on the Amiga Univercity site, Art Effect... well... loads of dollars :(

MUI have "nothing to talk" in drawing topic. ;) MUI only calls a method MUIM_Draw, which is used for drawing procedures.
The code is simply as possible; this is the init part in MUIM_Setup:
dto = NewDTObject(data->fileName, DTA_GroupID, GID_PICTURE, PDTA_DestMode, PMODE_V43, OBP_Precision, PRECISION_EXACT, PDTA_Remap, TRUE, TAG_DONE); if(dto) { struct image *gi = NULL; struct BitMapHeader *bmh; SetAttrs(dto, PDTA_Screen, (ULONG)scr, PDTA_UseFriendBitMap , TRUE, TAG_DONE); if (gi = (struct image *)MAllocVecPooled(sizeof(struct image))) { GetDTAttrs(dto, PDTA_BitMapHeader, (ULONG)&bmh, TAG_DONE); gi->picObject = dto; gi->imageFlags |= DFLG_Datatypes; data->width = bmh->bmh_Width; data->height = bmh->bmh_Height;
and draw procedure called in MUIM_Draw:
void drawDTPic(Object *dto, struct RastPort *rp, ULONG x, ULONG y, ULONG width, ULONG height) { struct BitMapHeader *bmh = NULL; struct BitMap *bm = NULL; BOOL success = FALSE;
if (DoMethod(dto, DTM_PROCLAYOUT, NULL, 1)) { GetDTAttrs(dto, PDTA_BitMapHeader, (ULONG)&bmh, TAG_DONE); if (bmh) { GetDTAttrs(dto, PDTA_DestBitMap, (ULONG)&bm, TAG_DONE); } }
if (DataTypesBase->lib_Version >= 44) { APTR handle = ObtainDTDrawInfoA(dto, TAG_DONE); if (handle) { success = DrawDTObjectA(rp, dto, x, y, width, height, 0, 0, TAG_DONE); ReleaseDTDrawInfo(dto, handle); } }
if (!success) { APTR mask = NULL; GetDTAttrs(dto, PDTA_MaskPlane, (ULONG)&mask, TAG_DONE); if (mask) { BltMaskBitMapRastPort(bm, 0, 0, rp, x, y, width, height, ABC|ABNC|ANBC, mask); } else { BltBitMapRastPort(bm, 0, 0, rp, x, y, width, height, ABC|ABNC|ANBC); } } }

@pjs Quote: I was wondering, how does Basilisk's networking support compare with Shapeshifter's? I think works in the same way; I know there some limitations, on what type of packages that can be sent, for example I don?t think ping works, general TCP/IP packages should work, but I have not tested this.

I'm currently adding RDB support to Basilisk 2, because I hate the current format where you need to add start block, and size of partition in blocks, in Amiga world the partitions are defined as LowCyl, HiCyl, this means that you need to calculate where the partition starts.
Start in blocks = LowCyl * heads * sectors_per_track. Size in blocks = (HiCyl ? LowCyl) * Heads * sectors_per_track
It?s so easy to do some thing wrong, and when you repartition your disk, you might get big problems whit the old format.
That?s way decided to change the format in configuration file to
disk /dev/device/unit/devicename
device=a1ide.device unit=0 devicename=mac0

@MamePPCA1 You could find advices on this page. To swap to full screen mode, the special keys page tellls that you have to use alt-enter. About speed, I looked at the sources yesterday and I suppose we can find many things to optimize.

@SZAMAN
That's strange. OS3 datatypes don't support alpha, OS4 datatypes do. So you should have a border around the images on OS3, but not on OS4.
Perhaps MUI does not support alpha blending and the images have a grey background. So you don't notice it on OS3, although it's there.
Bye, Thomas

What is difference between programing AmigaOS 3.x and AmigaOS 4 datatypes? My friend use the same code in MUI aplication + AISS pictures (PNG+alpha). AmigaOS 3.x - everything work fine, AmigaOS 4 - I have black border around images. Hmm

I haven't seen the version at the Italian show, but I have a suggestion for the current version.
When you are playing a local file (like an MP3) there are buttons for play and stop, but not pause. I know there is a key combo and it can be done from the menu, but it would be nice if there was a button too.

I forget, was it Hyperion or Eyetech that originally got this whole A1/AOS4 thing together?
No, no, no,! Let me correct myself. That was Amiga, Inc. who licensed the hardware development to Eyetech (after which Mai Logic went belly up, suspending that development and production) and the development of the OS to Hyperion and was prepared to license more hardware once a final version OS was released. But then you run into the problem of someone refusing to release a final version OS until they were threatened with court proceedings.
Without Amiga, Inc. none of you would even have A1's or AOS4 in any version.

@Atheist Quote: A friend of mine bought me some used AD&D books a week ago. When he told me it's origin, I had to ask the guy "hey, did you get these from a garbage can", and he couldn't say they weren't, so I threw them away. He buys and sells odds and ends, but I found out he gets stuff from the garbage too..... It's COMPLETELY put me off of used merchandise.... I was usually against it anyway, but there are things you just CAN'T buy new anymore, right? (Like the original set of AD&D books.)
[slightly OT] I disagree. If one doesn't use all the A1s (s)he owns, idle ones should be sold. I also disagree with throwing out useful books (actually the most used book here is mathematical handbook I actually found lying near the grabage can, not the mint condition, but put nicely on the pavement near the can). You'll be amazed how many old useful stuff libraries put on sale. And one can buy great used electronics from stereo shops that do trade-ins (bought an amplifier that was still sold new for less than half the price. And the PC I'm going to use as HTPC here was actually given to me for free (I believe it was to rot in the cornere or thrown away by the previous owner), added to it a quiet PSU, used it untill got my A1 fixed and now building the HT) [/slightly OT] Bottom line: if you have spare A)S4-capable hardware - sell it. If you want AOS4-capable hardware - hunt the used ones down!!! Jack

@Snuffy Quote: I haven't heard from Edgar Schwan in while on X11 'anything'. I have fell out the X11 loop since the A1 broke after the July Upgrade. As far as I know he was re-writing Cygnix to remove the problems/conflicts with hardcoding the unix locations, or something like that, and he had said it would take a lot of work/time. I only mentioned it because it was reviewed in Amiga Future. I think the Firefox port is reliant on X11 as well, so that may be a reason for the delay. ps. Soryy to hear about your A1.

I don't suppose you have an icon for Shrub, or tree?
They are programs which will display/print/save a volume, directory as a tree structure list. I have it set up on amidock, and the old MUI icon looks really naff on OS4.
I know you have done absolutley loads of icons, and wondered whether one of those already fitted the bill.
