Software News   Software News : Hollywood Designer 3.0 out now!
   posted by softwarefailure on 23-Jan-2011 11:05:25 (6890 reads)
After almost 3 years of development, Airsoft Softwair is very proud to announce the immediate availability of the long awaited third incarnation of our famous Hollywood Designer. Hollywood Designer 3.0 is a multimedia authoring system that runs on top of Hollywood and can be used to create all sorts of multimedia based applications; for example presentations, slide shows, simple games, and programs. Thanks to Hollywood, all multimedia applications created using Hollywood Designer can be exported as stand-alone executables for the following systems: AmigaOS3, AmigaOS4, WarpOS, MorphOS, AROS (x86), Windows (x86), Mac OS X (PPC), Mac OS X (x86). This is a feature that is totally unique in the Amiga world.

Hollywood Designer 3.0 is a huge update and has endless new features and improvements over the previous versions. We do not want to bore you, so here are just some of them:

* Support for global project timeline: allows scheduling of slides in millisecond precision! (great for sync'ing slides and music)
* Introducing action events for much more artistic freedom
* Almost 40 different action events are supported!
* Unlimited number of effects can run simultaneously
* Unlimited number of anims can run simultaneously
* Incredibly powerful effect handler: page effects can run simultaneously with object effects
* Thumbnail view of all slides in the project
* Support for hotkeys during presentation mode (pause, forward, backward...)
* Event system completely redesigned - much more powerful now!
* All fonts can be linked into executables generated by Designer - no more worries about missing fonts!
* Support for platform independent text rendering: TrueType text looks exactly the same now on every system!
* Text objects can be rotated and distorted now, too
* Support for real layer transparency and tinting
* Inbuilt scaling engine allows promotion of projects to any screen mode
* Layer z-order is no longer tied to order of layer appearance
* On-the-fly animation of layers is possible using a special action event inspired by DPaint's "Move" functionality
* Mouse pointer can be changed during presentation
* GIF anims can be embedded in projects
* Supports cool new MUI 4.0 features (MorphOS version only)
* Added support for object anchor points
* Over 50 new transition effects
* UTF-8 support for all text objects
* Buttons are handled completely asynchronously now
* Projects can now be exported as AVI videos
* Ready for Hollywood 4!
* Lots of other changes, optimizations and bug fixes

Without a doubt, Hollywood Designer 3.0 is the definitive multimedia solution for all Amiga compatible platforms, but as a picture is worth a thousand words, we have made some screenshots of Hollywood Designer 3.0 running on MorphOS and AmigaOS 4 for you to see here.

Hollywood Designer 3.0 is a very stable and mature multimedia authoring system. We would like to emphasize that it is not only suited for personal use, but also for professional commercial customers. Ferrule Media, for instance, have created an info channel containing over 700 unique slides in a single project with Hollywood Designer. Hollywood Designer was designed to handle these huge projects efficiently so that they can run 24 hours a day and 7 days a week without any visible memory fragmentation!

Hollywood Designer 3.0 comes on a CD-ROM that contains versions for all supported platforms: There are native versions of the program for AmigaOS3 (m68k), WarpOS (ppc), MorphOS (ppc), and AmigaOS4 (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 a previous version of Hollywood Designer, you can buy a discounted upgrade version.

Please note that Hollywood Designer 3.0 runs on top of the Multimedia Application Layer Hollywood 4.7. Thus, Hollywood 4.7 is strictly required for Hollywood Designer 3.0. 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 4.7 & Hollywood Designer 3.0.

Power up your Amiga system with Hollywood 4.7 & Hollywood Designer 3.0 and order now!

We are very glad to see that Designer 3.0 is released! Congratulations to Airsoft Software!

To see this kind of quality (amiga only)-software released in 2011 is fantastic! It should also stop the talk from people thinking Airsoft Software were leaving the amiga-market - this really show how comitted the people at Airsoft Software really are!

Ferrule Media have been lucky to be developing with Version 3.0 for some time allready and the software is simply amazing! Easy to use yet very powerful! The amount of new features compared the older versions makes Version 3.0 a must buy! :)

We are looking forward to see what other users starts creating using this new wonderful piece of software!

AirsoftSoftwair has never disappointed me before, so I ordered my copy!

I'd like to spend more and more for quality Amiga creative applications.

Hm... everybody ordered already... sorry, I will order, if my next project needs hollywood. Anyway, it is a great program and it is worth every penny. I use it professionally and it works rock solid. Using Hollywood is the most fun part of my work.

greetings gerograph

BTW:Does it support grouping of objects ?

grouping of objects?

As an example you may use Action-objects to add effects to several objects simultanously .. lets say you would like to fade 4 different text-objects and two pictures into display at the same time.. this is easy to do with the new Designer.

The action-object system is very powerful! You get full control of everything :)

Yeah!

It will be mine in a few days......

I have more free time now, and I can't wait to do some serious work with it (and with Hollywood 4.7 too!)

Hello

Today I just decided to try PC version of Hollywood :)
Downloaded but got programming interface :( I tried all demos, they reminds me a bit on good old program Swish.

Then I looked at web site and read that I will need Designer for non-programming interface - Hollywood Designer.

But I found no downloading link from their web site.

Any ideas how I can try this program?

all best.
n.

Designer is not available for PC-Mac
A demo version of the Hollywood Designer is currently unavailable.

To try it you need to buy it for either AmigaOS4+ AmigaOS3.9 or Morphos

The license is personally assigned by the author. That's why you have to purchase directly from him rather than from AmigaKit or any other reseller.

I'm planning too to order the updated Designer, I found this software quite useful and failry professional.

I'm wondering if there is any chance of getting some sort of networking support in hollywood in any of the supported platforms.
For example is it possible to obtain sub-parts of hollywood code generated in real-time on a remote server that interact with the user?
Is it possible to download media objects (images, sounds, anims) from the web?
