INDIEGO! App Store for AmigaOS3.x/4.x first glimpse

Hi,

please find here a new video showing it on my SAM440@733 with reduced FX.
Workbench is set to 1080p (window takes 75%)

If you like to support us a little bit you could do here
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/ind ... eo-game-console/x/2310364

The main goal are 800€ to pay some graphicdesign, additional server programming and some other tasks we can't do by ourselves.
If we don't get the money together it does just mean that it will take a little bit longer to finalize it.

Maybe someone is also interested in the stretch goals...

Thank you in advance.

Hi,
I am looking for at least one tester with a X1000 and another one with a SAM460.

I think this is great, however I wish we had a single AppStore (there is the AmiStore also).

As a user I would prefer a single app store for all compatible platforms (OS4/MorphOS/AROS/Classic).

Hi,

me too. indieGO! -Appstore is for AROS, AmigaOS68k, AmigaOS4, MorphOS, Windows, Linux and OSX and of course indieGO!- devices such as the AmiQube.

I offer every party to join and made sure that the API is portable and everyone can participate from sales.

The shown client is our "reference" client made with Hollywood. Other parties could access the store with using a C program.

We will also build a web-interface in form of Steam or GOG, so people can browse files using a browser as well.

The idea is to give developers a unified target.
Let's say you create a new SNES game. Via indieGO!-store Amiga users can buy and run it as well. The developer just creates one IGO-file for all targets.

I am not fighting against AmiStore. Both parties will use their shop to offer new software. Nothing bad.

On my mac i have AppStore (because it is part of the OS), Steam, GameTree and Desura. I can choose where to buy and sometimes they have exclusive deals.

Main functionality is working and we will start a open beta for the graphical client later this evening.

Beta Clients are now available for all target systems including:
AROS
AmigaOS
MorphOS
OSX
Linux
Windows

Please try, give critics and we will try to move into the right direction.

Rgistering is now possible from the client. So the "Enter the matrix" link is only needed for developers because the Dev-Interface works only in a browser.
Developers can login online and click on "become a developer"
After manual acceptance by us you can upload how much and whatever you like.
Of course under rules of law. User have the possibility to report apps.


If you like to run it in a smaller window or maybe with boarders, please check the prefs folder.

If you delete global.config and rename global.config.bak to global.config, you will have it the way i showed it in the videos.

Global.config is editable in every text editor and you can define things like boarders, size and fx.

The first time a second window opens, please keep it open, it waits until you logged in the first time.
The dlm exe is the downloadmanager. It is configurable for itself.

Because of SAM440 performance and in case you run your WB in 1080p you should use the global.config.bak (remove .bak) file and change the window size parameter to 0.5 or 0.65 (it is 0.85 by default) depending on your clock. I have only a ATI 9250 maybe the HD type of cards do better 2D acceleration.

As promised here is a first guide for developers and content creators.

Please check especially supported filetypes and that a price of 100 means 1€... this is important ; )

Ohh i forgot: Music, Movies and Magazines are "Platforms" by our definitions. So if you like to upload music choose "Music" as platform. This is important for future "3rd-party"/or own clients focused on music /magazines and movies.
Also, while repeating my self, others can ask for accessing the server via our api.
Means: You could do your own appstore client or enhance existing ones to make use of it as well.
A thread with some infos is here: http://aros-exec.org/modules/newbb/vi ... t_id=90516#forumpost90516

If you like to have window decoration you can enable it in the global.prefs file with a text editor.

What kind of server-side programming?

Hi,
what do you mean? My initial post about financing server-side programming?

Well the position of server-programmer is set already.
If you can do websites (HTML5) you are welcome : )

I have replaced the pdf:
http://aeros-os.org/guistore/IndieGO-dev-guide.pdf

NEW:
We added some more supported file types
We fixed missing english translation in the Developer - UI
And we brought back the "Suggest category button" which was gone by accident (as we rolled out the new ui design

http://aeros-os.org/guistore/IndieGO-dev-guide.pdf

Fixed build is available now
=== VERSION 1.0 - Beta 4 (21/05/2016) ===
- FIX : Resolved the DSI problem on AmigaOS4, this was caused by an internal
Hollywood's problem, applied a workaround for this issue.

of a new user.
