Software News   Software News : Hollywood 4.8 now with Linux support
   posted by softwarefailure on 24-Apr-2011 7:28:20 (6913 reads)
Airsoft Softwair is happy to annouce a special Easter egg for the Amiga community: Hollywood 4.8 is out now! This update contains mostly bug fixes and one great new feature requested by many people: Hollywood is now able to compile executables for Linux systems! With the ability of compiling for Linux systems Hollywood finally comes full circle because it now supports all major desktop operating systems. All in all, Hollywood can create programs for nine different platforms now: AmigaOS 3, AmigaOS 4, WarpOS, MorphOS, AROS, Windows, Mac OS X (Intel), Mac OS X (PowerPC), and Linux (Intel). A totally unique feature in the Amiga world!


Great care was taken to make Hollywood compiled executables as portable as possible across the many different Linux distros. Package dependencies were kept down to an absolute minimum: Only plain X11 - which should be present on any Linux system - is required by Hollywood executables! All other dependencies like gtk and ALSA for sound output are entirely optional: If they are installed, Hollywood will use them, if not, Hollywood will just run without them. Thus, Hollywood compiled executables will usually run straight out of the box on most common Linux distros. You definitely won't have to install dozens of packages before being able to run Hollywood executables!

Please visit the Airsoft Softwair webpage for screenshots of Hollywood 4.8 running on Gentoo (KDE), Ubuntu (Gnome), Fedora (Gnome), openSUSE (KDE) and the brand-new GNOME 3.

Hollywood 4.8 is Airsoft Softwair's ultimate Multimedia experience and a must-have for every Amiga user who wants to use the full power that is in his machine. Hollywood is available on a CD-ROM and as a download version. 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 Hollywood, you can buy a discounted upgrade version. Please visit the Airsoft Softwair webpage for more information.

@Tuxedo

But my Hollywood 4.7 was a fresh purchase and not an upgrade.

Would it be possible to check peoples registrations/purchases and say those that purchase within the last 6 months may have a free 0.1 upgrade?

But Tuxedo the problem now is that Andreas every year has a new update that is of pay and the worst in Amiga there isn't IDE editor as on Windows, and the other problem now ne is working for export the programs to many systems but we need a good version and with much good examples between other things.
And about the price to pay for the new version but every year to pay and with the big question if I make one program or game can I sell this product?

mmm...
For me the IDE wasnt a big problem...I use Annotate with Holywood Syntax Higlight and I'm rather fine with that...
For the "can I sell my progs" quwstion, well...as described on your guide you can :)
Only the better way was to ask Andreas first to have a "license" to sell that game/prog...
Because you can easly made an Hollywood wrapper instead of a standalone program...
However I think that you can sell your prog without problems if they dont conflict with that simply rule :)
