Phew, I thought I'd done something seriously wrong myself! I had a quick go with ImageFX, then rebooted, only to find no Amidock, and a series of requesters telling me OS4 couldn't find the following files:

In that case, I feel somewhat confident to add that the 4.5 full release CD has the same peculiar behaviour.
At first, I just thought that I had missed unchecking/checking something, felt like quite a moron, and proceeded to recopy the lot from the OS4 CD. I felt like an even bigger idiot when the same happened when I tried to install it on my Classic, since I think I remembered seeing an option whether or not to install any SYS: files, and I simply disregarded myself as a complete arse for missing the same thing twice.

So, either we're all a bunch of moronic idiot asses, or that installer doesn't really behave like it should.

But I'm starting to think that this here little app is well worth any tiny hassle with the installation (it's not even close to being a showstopper, merely a bump in the road), and the subtle hint that a native port might appear somewhere down the line is really encouraging!

Not only encouraging, but really, plenty super-cool!


And, even though I've already bought the full release (and don't regret it for a second!), releasing the Lite-version for the OS4-community is well worth a round of applauds!

@all

The installer will be fixed, we will upload a new version to OS4 Depot.

The reason for the problems is that we took the existing IFX Lite release for a certain other platform and altered small parts of the installation script. Not the part that copies, but rather text parts and checking code for a registration number for the other platform.

On AmigaOS4 some parts get overwritten, and although it seems easy to recover it shouldn't have happened. We apologize for this.

As for the title on the program's screen, well.. it shows what the other platform was I guess

It will also be changed in the next upload.

While your modifiying the install script, if you use 'SetEnv ImageFX/JPEG_Smoothing SAVE ON' in your first run script, you won't need to put the setenv line in the s:user-startup

@ComputerCity an the rest

Do you, or anyone here for that matter, know if there is available a scanner plugin that can connect to a scanner shared through saned running on a linux box? That's how mine is set up here, and I'd be willing to put out the money for ImageFX if I can get that to work.

I am now peeved... After playing with IFX lite for a while, I've discovered that NONE of the ppc stuff works, it's NOT OS4 native, it's PowerUp code requiring the ppc.library. so don't expect any of these to work...

jpeg loader
jpeg saver
Bubble
Clouds
Fire
FxForge
GaussianBlur
Lightning
Liquid
PageCurler

Basically anything ending with .ppc or .elf won't work :(

Another thing that really bugged me was limiting the display to 8 bit and using CGX drivers instead of Picasso...

Mini Rant over...
