I spotted the same. Last thing I did was with some sprites and the sprites moved much smoother on the Win maschine (some core Duo) than on my G4/1500. On MorphOS the program had a tendency to produce some flicker, layers3D increased flickering even more. On Win there was no flickering.

@ Softwairfailure

btw.: Is there a plan for a real time scheduler? As it seems to me SetInterval() waits n ms *after* execution of each repetition of the main loop. But I would * L O V E * a handler that warrants start of an iterated ecxecution each n ms (no matter how lone prpcessing ofthe inner loop actually takes) . That may lead to some probs when the cpu time isn't sufficient to finish the inner loop during the scheduled time (the programmer would need to take care to implement some methods to cope with these issues then), but on systems delivering the required cpu speed this would warrant RT capabilities (I used hollywood in a scientific setup recently and I needed a precisely warranted framerate).

Raffaele, you got the point.

I must say this is sad news too.
There is after all no other to expect, but I will for sure not upgrade my version.

I was kind of disapointed that after my purcase (AROS version) I was planing to do some stuff that required a fix to mplega.lib, that fix never came out. I guess it's fixed in latest version, but why should I pay for something that was a bug from before.

And do not forget the main reason it could be interesting for a non Amiga developer too.

the software will be output ready for "run on Amiga" by Hollywood capabilities...AND...

No need to recompile and add includes... No need to know how it works Amiga and learn how to program it...

Any PC developer using Hollywood could create universal binaries.

Hollywood it is truly "piece of cake" of the future.

If Hollywood wll grow and conquire any platform it will became sorta like "Babel Fish" of the universal programming!

@ Raffaele

While Hollywod is really a nice piece of software it has its limitations, too. And even while you can very easily produce multiplatform binaries you also need to keep some thing in mind/have limitations/follow rules for going multiplatform. I.e you must avoid to use special "infrastructure" of your host system. Often this not a big deal (e. g. adjusting pathes for depending files), but it gets tricky when you use Amiga/MorphOS DOS commands, or e.g. use a external video player for output and such. Not unbearable, but the write "once complie for everything" works only if you don't use resources not available on all systems. But for sure it is one of the easiest cross platform development kits and I like it very much.

@ zylesea

If Hollywood will stay perpetually at this state of the art I agree with your reasons.

But I think Hollywood will evolve in the future.

Also if Andreas will enhance Hollywood by making it modular, then any compiling module for any Operating System could be upgraded and debugged separately, and also any compling module could implement its own facilities for adapting better any compiled software in order to match the best it could the OS the software was created to running on.

(I hope these concepts of mine were clear enough, sorry for my english)

But mine are just speculations and random mumbling about it.

It is just a matter on how much it will evolve Hollywood, and depending from the ideas of Andreas Falkenhahn about his creature.

@ALL

Are there somebody that tested the windos version? and how work in this Amiga rival system?

And why this windos version go kill the Amiga version? I think that it is one help to developers because sometimes we need PC windos programs that in Amiga hasn't and this way is very fast and easy development tools and program or games for Amiga.
