MorphOS: Blender animation "Efika - das Mini-Movie"
Carsten Siegner is making available an animation which was produced completely - including cutting and scoring - with the 3D package Blender 2.4.2a and should demonstrate its possibilities under MorphOS.
The video is available in OGM format, so for smooth viewing, at least MPlayer 1.0 rc1 is required.

AmigaOS 4: Software sampler Phonolith 0.5
Phonolith is a software instrument for AmigaOS 4 which plays back sampled waveforms. It is usable with Horny and other CAMD-based sequencers or just with a connected MIDI keyboard as well.
New in this version is the "Mixdown" function, with which one's own songs can be saved as AIFF files. But this only works with a keyfile. Since such are not sold yet before version 1.0, one can obtain them only through registering the Horny MIDI sequencer.
Features of version 0.5:
- downmixing to AIFF file (not for lite version)
- receives MIDI notes through camd.library
- mixer unit with volume controls and peak meters
- 16 different instruments at once
- ADSR amp envelope for each instrument
- unlimited number of samples for each instrument, for key and velocity ranges
- supports AIFF (16 bit) sample format
- imports Logic EXS24 instruments (only from Macintosh (PPC?))
- ReAction GUI
Planned features of version 1.0:
- mixer unit with panning controls
- WAVE sample support
- better EXS24 import (Intel format...)
- connection to Horny for automatic project loading
- control mixer with MIDI commands
- non-linear volume levels and ADSR-release
Further information on Phonolith can be found under the title link. (cg) (Translation: cad)

Hollywood Designer 2.0 released
Press release: Airsoft Softwair are very proud to announce that the final version of Hollywood Designer 2.0 is now available for AmigaOS 3, AmigaOS 4, MorphOS and for the first time also for WarpOS. Hollywood Designer 2.0 is the ultimate presentation editing software for AmigaOS(tm) and compatible operating systems. Hollywood Designer 2.0 is a high-end software package which allows for a very professional use of your Amiga system. You can create just about everything with Hollywood Designer 2.0: From simple slide presentations accompanying a speech or lectureto complex kiosk applications (e.g. a train ticket vending machine) which react dynamically on user input. It's all possible with Hollywood Designer and it can be done with just a few clicks!
Hollywood Designer 2.0 is the next generation of the famous Hollywood Designer and introduces lots of new features which will establish Hollywood Designer 2.0 as the most sophisticated presentation editing software on the Amiga platform. With Hollywood Designer 2.0 you can save your presentations for AmigaOS 3, AmigaOS 4, MorphOS, WarpOS and even AROS. Here are some of the major new features of Hollywood Designer 2.0, but there is a lot more:
- Completely rewritten layout dialog: Everything can be done with the mouse now!
- Anti-aliasing is supported for all objects including text
- Massive palette of auto forms is now available (arrows, stars, bubbles, bangs ...)
- Configure your autoforms easily through draggable hot spots
- Create pie charts very easily
- Create your own forms with the polygon tool
- Free scaling and rotation of objects with the mouse
- MP3s can be embedded in the presentations now
- Support for different form styles: filled, outline, gradient, texture
- Transparent shadow can be added to objects now
- Graphics with alpha channel can be used for an ultra smooth look
- Extremely fast WarpOS native version is now available
- Animations can be scaled now (also with anti-alias)
- Easy duplication of slides now possible

- Much more flexible font interface with on-the-fly text formatting
- Buttons can use pixel-exact collision detection now
- Your presentations can also be saved for AROS now
- 32-bit PNG toolbars and animations in the GUI: Enjoy the 2007 look of Hollywood Designer!
- GUI is fully user-configurable now through the use of MUI
- Ready for MUI 4.0!
- guigfx.library and render.library no longer required
- Lots of other changes, optimizations and bug fixes
Please note that these were only some of the major new features of Hollywood Designer 2.0. The program has received a total overhaul and is now better than ever! As a picture is worth more than a 1000 words, please visit the Airsoft Softwair web page for screenshots of Hollywood Designer 2.0 in action. These screenshots are from the AmigaOS 4 version of Hollywood Designer 2.0 but the program is also available for AmigaOS 3, WarpOS and MorphOS with the same
set of features.
For a detailed description of all the features of Hollywood Designer 2.0, please visit the product page of the program which should contain everything you want to know about this impressive software. Due to the fact
that it is possible to access the complete function set of Hollywood (which contains almost 400 functions) through Hollywood Designer 2.0, the program constitutes such an extremely powerful tool for all conceivable
uses that it does not have to hide itself from comparable products in the PC world.
Hollywood Designer 2.0 comes on a CD-ROM that contains versions for all supported platforms: There are native versions of the program for AmigaOS 3 (m68k), WarpOS (ppc), MorphOS (ppc), and AmigaOS 4 (ppc). A download version is also offered. If you order the download version, you will have to download an ISO image which you need to burn on CD-R then. If you already own Hollywood Designer 1.0, you can buy a discounted upgrade version. Have a look at the order page for special offers.
Please note that Hollywood Designer 2.0 runs on top of the Multimedia Application Layer Hollywood 2.5. Thus, Hollywood 2.5 is strictly required for Hollywood Designer 2.0. Both programs are available in a special bundle which is the ultimate package for every power Amiga user who wants to see what his system can do with Hollywood 2.5 & Hollywood Designer 2.0.
Power up your Amiga system with Hollywood 2.5 & Hollywood Designer 2.0. Order now! (cg) (Translation: cg)

MorphOS: SearchStar 0.78
Tom 'Amigaharry' Duin writes about version 0.78 of his search program: "Reading the Amiga Future 65 review about my SearchStar 0.76, the review stated that not all files were found by searching. I was going into the sources and found the bug; a near double match was not detected. For instance, search for TEST, then TTEST, TETEST and TESTEST was not found.
Searching for files, through files and file comments is bugfixed. However, the deletion and renaming of files are improved but not entirely bugfixed. As I am going to holiday, it will take a while to solve the last two bugs." (snx)
