After almost 3 years of development Airsoft Softwair, the hardest working men in code business, are back on your screen to announce the immediate availability of Hollywood 11: Coderise. Hollywood is a programming language that can be used to create a wide variety of programs, ranging from games and GUI-based applications for desktop systems to mobile apps for Android and iOS. Hollywood's special feature is its support for retro platforms (e.g. AmigaOS, MorphOS, AROS) and modern operating systems (e.g. Windows, macOS, Linux) alike. It comes with a library of over 1000 commands and its functionality can be extended further through over 30 plugins which are available for free download.
Hollywood 11: Coderise is a massive update with lots of new features, optimizations and bug fixes. The most important new feature is that Hollywood 11 finally introduces a modular build system which will only link the libraries actually required by a script to the compiled program. This can drastically reduce executable sizes and is especially important on Amiga systems where memory is often limited. Hollywood 11 finally makes it possible to compile programs that fit on a single 880kb disk and run on a vanilla A1200! The new modular build system is made possible by a brand-new subsystem called Miniwood which, in contrast to Hollywood, allows scripts to only link the libraries actually required by the script to the output executable. Using Miniwood doesn't only have advantages for Amiga users but also for users of other platforms: For example, if scripts don't decide to load the display library, the program will also work on systems without X11, e.g. on pure terminal servers which was previously impossible.
Of course, the introduction of Miniwood isn't the only new feature in Hollywood 11. There are many other exciting new things in Hollywood 11. Here are just a few of them:
- introduction of Miniwood to massively reduce executable sizes
- sound stream export is now possible
- lots of new AmigaOS 3.2 features now supported
- new AmigaOS-specific extensions like backdrop windows
- support for the Linux arm64 platform
- several improvements concerning layer grouping
- audio recording support in different formats
- samples can be extracted from music streams
- optimized for Hollywood Designer 7
- much more convenient capture of console output
- much more effective compressor for smaller executables
- lower memory consumption (important on classic AmigaOS)
- tray menu support
- monolithic compilation now supported for macOS arm64 systems
- console mode supported on macOS as well now
- GDK support on Linux
- great enhancements for Android (scoped storage and MediaStore support)
- implemented several new plugin interfaces
- ready for at least 3 new Hollywood 11-exclusive plugins
- over 100 new pages of PDF documentation, 1380 pages altogether!
- lots of other changes, optimizations and bug fixes
Hollywood 11 is the ultimate Multimedia experience and a must-have for all creative people. Hollywood is available on CD and as a download version. Both versions include Hollywood for all supported platforms. Buying Hollywood gets you a single-user license for all 17 platforms supported by Hollywood. If you already own Hollywood, you can buy a discounted upgrade version.
Hollywood is the ultimate bridge between all the different AmigaOS compatible platforms and the other three modern desktop systems, Windows, macOS, and Linux! Additionally, Hollywood also supports the Android and iOS platforms. A truly unique feature is the ability to cross-compile native executables for many different platforms including: AmigaOS3, AmigaOS4, WarpOS, MorphOS, AROS (x86), Windows (x86, x64), macOS (x86, x64, arm64, ppc), Linux (x86, x64, ppc, arm, arm64), and Android/iOS with optionally available add-ons. You don't even have to own these platforms in order to compile executables for them. It's enough to run Hollywood on one of the supported platforms and then compile programs for all the others! Only Hollywood makes it possible. If you want to learn more about Hollywood, please visit the the official Hollywood portal which also has a forum for all questions concerning Hollywood.
All this makes Hollywood The Cross-Platform Multimedia Application Layer. Join the Multimedia revolution and get your personal copy of Hollywood 11: Coderise now!
