| oops, the list seem to have exploded.
I would prefer a list with only native apps. Cygwin, emulated, etc. should be separated somehow, perhaps, IMHO. (example non native API applications in brackets)
And some klind of grouping might be needed now. Like putting gfx related headlines one after another, etc.
And one might want to ad: - x86 emulators - Apple Mac emulator - Retro emulators (mame, 8bit computers, 16bit computers, PS1,....) - scenery generation - fractal generation - video conversion - paying music (mp3 etc.) - youtube/www v ideo capture - news group viewers - Firewall tools - Antivirus tools - PCB design tools - electronics circuits simulation tools - Home control / automation tools - (industrial) data aquistion tools - home theatre suite - debug tools - music notation editors - backup tools - icon editors - bitmap drawing tools - UML modeling tools - mindmapping tools - project planning / management tools / task list handlers - infochannel tools (like SCALA infochannel) - realtime video tools - military simulators (and other military solutions) - Calendar tools (personal time keeping, etc) - computer diagnostics tools - benchmark tools - molecular modelling tools - medical applications - education tools - encyclopedia tools - Palm / other hand held /mobile phone suite / tools - programming lanquages - game development toolkits - demo builder toolkits (perhaps this is same as presentation tools) - "radio amataur" hobby tools - VOIP phone tools - video conferencing tools - radio broadcasting tools - www radio broadcasting tools - SW/documantation version control tools - comics creation tools - virtual desktop tools, pagers etc - rendering network / clustering tools - application GUI building tools - web pages authoring tools, HTML editors - JAVA engine - server tools (www, e-mail, fileserver, ftp server, ....) - X-Core application developer tools 8-P - PIC chip programming tools - FPGA programming tools - EPROM tools
And/or perhaps a gategory for even more weird apps. Last edited by KimmoK on 23-Feb-2010 at 07:49 AM. Last edited by KimmoK on 23-Feb-2010 at 07:46 AM.

| There's mplayer and ffplay for 68k which can stream video , also there's a native AMP2 version for OS4 which can also play DVD. Mplayer for OS4 can play DVD and general videos as well. AMP2 and Frogger can play DVD on 68k. And let's not forget video players MooVid and RiVa for 68k.

With ImageFX I am having difficulty discerning its native status for Morphos. From http://www.novadesign.com/2008/10/imagefx-45-studio-for-amiga.html Quote:
We've made ImageFX fully compatible with MorphOS. All the PowerStation modules work natively - at speeds far faster than previously possible under Cyberstorm or Blizzard PPC cards. We also have MorphOS 32bit icons courtesy of Andre Siegel! |
... In the case of ImageFX, native was mentioned so I assumed there had been a deliberate enhancement of some kind for MorphOS. Let me know if this is not the case. |
I don't know either, but "made ... fully compatible" sounds like it has merely been tweaked to work fully. Which suggest to me that the PPC code is actually using WarpUp or PowerUp, and they just tweaked it to be fully system-friendly, so that it works fully on MorphOS. Then the word "native" there really meant "PPC not emulated 68k".
If it is using WarpUp, then it should work on Amiga OS4 as well...
(BTW, I don't think that icons count towards whether something is supported natively!)_________________ Author of the PortablE programming language. It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue... |

| This topic is getting incredibly useful.
I agree with the idea of turning it into a complete/updatable webpage. This can be really useful for newcomers asking "ok, I have this AmigaOS/MOS/AROS version: now what should I use to do...?".
And it can be useful for people asking "ok, I'd love to port something to AROS: what should I start with?"

For OS3...
-Painting or Image Manipulation: Photogenics - Brillant Program!
and perhaps also for -Photo retouching: ?? (how do you define this? you can retouch photos in Dpaint if your keen enough ;) )
edit - Perhaps a Topic split would be wise... mod?
edit2 - from KimmoK's list i think Emulators should be added! Last edited by mihcael on 23-Feb-2010 at 10:30 AM. Last edited by mihcael on 23-Feb-2010 at 10:29 AM.

I really have to think that the place for all the special things you just listed are "Aminet", "OS4Depot", "MorphZone" and "The AROS Archives".
My initial intention was to get a snapshot of the applications available across platforms for the most mainstream genres, which are the most useful and "best of breed". I don't think I have succeeded in that really. I have googled practically all the apps listed and there are way too many apps that are very difficult to find and are probably too obscure for a new user(i.e. anyone switching platforms) to obtain. Generally speaking you're lucky to even get a screenshot and instructions of what the app actually is or does, which is quite discouraging.
I am considering(!) setting up a site to list and obtain user reviews(moderated) of these apps(and games) as well as provide screenshots and setup instructions and user guides if they are lacking. Sort of a quick start for switching platforms....and that includes switching from Windows, Mac and Linux too. I just happened to have bought some web space and I am a web developer by trade, so this could be an interesting project. I already have built some web software which with a bit of tweaking could accomplish this. I could start with a few static web pages first, most notably containing the list above. I hope that is alright with the contributors!! _________________ Leo Nigro, CTO Commodore USA, LLC Opinions expressed are my own and not those of C= USA.

do you leave out hd-rec for 68k and morphos for a purpose?? i asked you 3 or 4 times already to place that app into music edit/other (like you did for os4) not into sound sampling and such. please.
also if you mentioned papyrus office please add that to morphos word process and spreadsheet. thx. |

| @mihcael I think the main problem with this list(and generally speaking) is that it is too hard to find where things can be purchased, downloaded or obtained. Photogenics is a case in point. An existing user might have it, but a noobie hasn't a chance as it appears to be abandonware and I can't seem to find it on the web. I don't know, perhaps there needs to be an indicator or even a separate list for abandonware.
By "Photo Retouching", I mean something which is very basic and does simple things like red-eye and cropping etc. Not a fully fledged paint app. Sure a paint app can do it, but it's like taking the space shuttle to get to work. Or not... I suck at metaphors.
Topic split... I considered it. There will be a new topic once I get the site up. Probably a week away.
Emulators are mostly used for games and this list has been specifically about applications. They are easy enough to find though.
edit: rearranged metaphor to be slightly less sucky. Last edited by BigBentheAussie on 23-Feb-2010 at 01:21 PM.

Bloody hell. Get a load of all the ads.
Hmmm....Tucows just seems a bit messy. I am not sure I want to get into actually hosting the software or being a kind of app store..... Let's see how this progresses. Got to get it off the ground first. I would be looking to add value to dedicated file repositories already in existence. I would rather link to them, and perhaps vice-versa. I would like the site to be slick enough to get a noob who says there are no apps for Amiga&alike platforms to be blown away and quickly get a grip on what is available. It's about building excitement and this is the year to do it after all.
Mind you.... I am not making any promises... I am just stating my intention.. life may intervene.Last edited by BigBentheAussie on 23-Feb-2010 at 01:16 PM.

The best thing would be if there was an SQL database and users could view software table using different combinations. Include/exclude 68k software, commercial software, freeware software, last updated and maybe the most recommended software. _________________ Amiga Developer Amiga 500, Efika, Mac Mini and PowerBook |

Added Papyrus Office to WP and Spreadsheet for MorphOS. Added HD-Rec for supported platforms in Music Edit Other as it does MIDI too. Honestly, I was not leaving them out on purpose. The suggestions have been coming thick and fast and I must have lost track. Sorry.

Yep. Looks like I have my work cut out for me. Right now, my first intention is to host the list and hyperlink the items to where they can be obtained. Then build the site from there. Rome wasn't built in a day.
This is starting to look like a fun project......until the hard work begins.
Edit: The beta/alpha/final state of the app is also a must.Last edited by BigBentheAussie on 23-Feb-2010 at 01:36 PM.

Sounds as a very nice www project plan.
I might be interested in a finnish version of your site (kind of).

You are right - it is often a problem to obtain a certain piece of software, i.e.
Photogenics5
is NOT abandonware and can still be purchased - I bought it only several weeks ago. But the link for this is indeed rather obscure (I'm not in front of my SAM now, so I might post it later).
A list with "still available" sources would be nice. Even a hint like "Out of production, see AmigaWorld classifieds or eBay to obtain" can be helpful! _________________ X1000|II/G4|440ep|2000/060|2000/040|1000 |
