Software News   Software News : AmiKit for Real Amiga Released
   posted by Retrofan on 28-Jan-2013 20:05:39 (2086 reads)
AmiKit, the high-end distribution of the best classic Amiga software, has been optimized for real AGA Amigas computers too! This conversion is unofficial and currently in beta, and is maintained by Retrofan. Your feedback is much appreciated. Enjoy!

Free download available at: http://real.amiga.sk/

I've been working for a while to make a conversion of the great AmiKit for PC to run on a real Amiga just using 16 colours, and saving a lot of ram using also some patches.

I've had some help to achieve this, so I want to thank PeterK for his great icon.library, Bloodwych for his advice, Thomas (always there), Rebel_CD32 for his great palette, skins and others, Cammy, and also some beta testers (mates). And finally Emmanuel Dausse for letting me use his Workbench 2000 with my mods, and of course Jan of AmiKit for his great help and support to launch and make this possible.

Thanks,
Retrofan


And here you've got some photos:

Hehe. Try to remember in which you installed it, lol.

I recommend to install also all the suggested options (MUI key, kickstarts, BB2 and so).

v0.2 beta Released.

http://real.amiga.sk/


- Installation method changed so Windows is no more required to install AmiKit!

- New icon.library 46.4.279 by Peter Keunecke. Icons load 15%-20% faster!

- Changed WB2000 preferences (WookieChat opens right now)

- Changed WB prefs (memory in other memory instead of graphic memory)

- Changed SongPlayer prefs

- Fixed Def icon (def_disk.info) so now you can open all the devices correctly

And.... we've added a voice for MorpheuZ :)
