AROS: Aros Vision X86 1.0
As announced, there are now different versions of Olaf Schönweiß' AROS/68k-distribution "Aros Vision". Aros Vision X86 is based on the Windows-hosted version of AROS, that means it can be started as application under Windows without using VMware or having some special hardware (screenshot). The disadvantage: So far sound or network are not supported.

The distribution is based on Magellan featuring some major improvements, supports Mesa/Gallium and includes the game engine Antiryad (a debug-requester will appear but it does work), Free Pascal, many emulators, some games and many applications like AmiFIG or Lunapaint. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Hollywood Player 6.0 released
Press release: Airsoft Softwair is proud to announce that the Hollywood Player is now also available in version 6.0 for all platforms supported by Hollywood (AmigaOS 3, AmigaOS 4, MorphOS, WarpOS, AROS, Windows, Mac OS PPC & x86, Linux PPC & x86 & ARM, Android).

With the Hollywood Player software authors can choose to distribute their programs as Hollywood applets instead of stand-alone executables. In contrast to stand-alone executables, Hollywood applets are universally executable which has the advantage that you don't have to compile your programs for as much as almost a dozen of different platforms but just one Hollywood applet is already sufficient. The end-user then simply has to install the Hollywood Player compatible with his platform and can run the Hollywood applet with it. Another advantage is that applets are much smaller than stand-alone executables compiled by Hollywood. While stand-alone executables often take up as much as 2 MB for only very few lines of code, Hollywood applets are very compact and often consist of only a few kilobytes. A last advantage is that programs distributed as Hollywood applets will automatically profit from improvements and bug fixes in newer versions of the Hollywood Player while programs distributed as stand-alone executables would have to be completely recompiled with each new Hollywood update in order to profit from improvements and bug fixes.

As its very name implies, the Hollywood Player can only be used to run applets compiled by Hollywood. It obviously cannot be used to create your own programs. You will still need the full version of Hollywood to create your own programs, of course.

On all Amiga compatibles, Hollywood Player installs itself to SYS:Utilities to be globally available as a default tool for Hollywood applets. Software authors choosing to distribute their programs as Hollywood applets can then simply set the default tool for their applets to "HollywoodPlayer" and inform the user to install the Hollywood Player before attempting to run the program.

The Hollywood Player is now available for free download from the official Hollywood portal for a wide range of architectures and comes with three demo applets to show its capabilities. (snx) (Translation: dr)
