If you in interest, you can follow by that thread on UB which i start today (about all that BliBltRasPort vs P96WritePixelArray stuff). For now the most intersting answer was from Georg:

Maybe we indeed loose somethere src_bm ? (if its need it for).

That can explain such "speedup" (like it copy from nothing to memory).

@Fab

Is there any luck that we can motivate you by money (bounty) to make port to aos4 of your version of OWB ? Or maybe somehow else ? Because while Joerg still do fixes for OWB, there will be nothing new in terms of new features from him for OWB (because OWB its only core:) ), and even enabling of NPAPI makes a problem (just do not undestand, why just not enable it at all for all the time?). We all the time say about the same "please enable NPAPI, please any download manager", but looks like my avatar say more about :)

Will be pretty cool if we can somehow motivate you for such work. You know your code better than anyone else, and maybe it will not take for you so many time ..

@AfxGroup
Btw, one more curios: is BltBitMapRastPort() functions should works over P96 fucntions in end ? Ds i understand, it should also call P96WritePixelArray in end (because in end P96 do all the work). Maybe BltBitMapRastPort() use some heavy checking on lock/unlock screens before do P96 stuff, and because of it its so slow ?

And maybe our current lockups because of "we need some more checking when we can lock/unlock" ? (what maybe do BltBitMapRastPort() and because of it , it so slow).

I just trying to understand, how it posible to have such _very big_ difference in thousands times ..

Better say its Yannick (& felllows) version :) Its still has some bugs/problems/misunderstoods, but already usable. Not so CAD related through :)

Still, good, modern and nice CAD programm are must to have. Did unixes have any good opensource CAD programm ?

@KimmoK

Not sure about ego (maybe not), but their "news" about nothing in last 2-3 years annoy pretty well. And while they works only at one normal project (aladdin), they still not have any working aos4/mos version , and cant show any screenshot of it, but they many times say about "3000 hours was spended on development" (which again, say nothing, because one for 3000 hours can do a candy, but another one, can jerky on code 3000 hours and do nothing). And yesterday i just for some interest going at a.org , and read their news , about "we will create bounty which will kick ass other bountyes", and after i read all of this, i start to think "did those guys are in clear mind, or already not?".

So, maybe there is not ego, but "fast/logical work" its 100% not about them. You can see that os4depot everyday have new releases, and some of them are good quality. And that all done by single persons. While so called "company" .. well.. you all know all of this imho :)

@KimmoK

I hope you not serius about DiscretFX ?:)

@KimmoK

I write mail to author for now, and ask for aos3.x sources (for making aos4 port). Also i say that we can motivate him by sending for him new SAM , and maybe collect a bounty.

As i see, they do many nice programms in C++ , so maybe not only powercad can be ported (if author will be in interest).

I hope my mail will not be put to spam-box and he will read it.

@alfkil

Nice ! But it pretty unposible to do more or less good tests because of that elf.kmod bug :( Maybe you can include working verstion of elf.kmod to archive ?

Anyway, what i can test before i get a lockup : windowses lock the main window. I.e. you spawn register-info window, and you cant press on breakpoint for example (but when you close register window, then breakpoints auto-pressed). The same for hexviewer.

Good progress all in all :)

@samo79
Not trying because imho better if it will do Yannick (i never works with localizations before)

@JosDuchIt
Its not my programm :) I only build os4 version and do few fixes, all the works in last time done by Yannick. Hope he can answer you soon in that thread :) In meanwhile you can check english/german guide, maybe you will found answer in it.

@Crhis
I uploaded all your files on os4depot for now

@mr2

Looks like you found a bug with those GUI font settings. I tryed right now to set my default size of font not to 14, but to 16, and the same Font window not opens, and more of it , color window crashers with GR. If i for example set 20 size, then Zoom window completely lockup the OS :)

I fill up bug-report on SF for now

@mr2

Ha, i right now edit my post about, and you answer that problem exactly because of that :) Good that it was solved.

Quote:

About that "twice" pressing i reported to Yannick few times already, he just not have time to fix it for now i think (or forget). The same bug happenes for example when you will go to font window, pressing font gadget (to choice the font), and press ok/chancle/etc will give you the same "2 times" behaviour. But i think he will easyly fix it later.

@anyone_who_have_problems_with_amifig

Download plz that binary (its only binary, so you need all the other files from last release on os4depot), I add fix on correct exit (when something was wrong on initialisation), and add code which will spawn for you a warning-reaction-based-window with words about what you dont have. Everyone who have problems, try it plz.

Also install the last reqtools.library from os4depot (to be sure, that you have not something wrong/old). That library which on os4depot are 68k itself, but have additional clue (.main) file which make that library works (so, copy boch files, not only reqtools.library).

@mr2
I think that pretty possible, that you have only reqtools.library (without clue file), and while it start it still crashes. For me it loos like this:

@djrikki
But need to know which sources and of what games Freddix have, which he can release later with no legal issues.

@djrikki
Imho for the "clean" picture done by SREC, we need to wait x1000. In that case i think we can create fast videos without cameras. For now or "camera" which show as it should but with bad quality, or good quality by srec, which jumping and looks sluggish :) Or some HW devices which can grab video in good quality from amigas.

@Crhis
Still, os4depot with us for 6 years long already, and its big base of os4 files. It already have 2740 files, while aminet have only have only 1350 files. So compare os4depot with kas1efiles.com its way too much. If os4depot will die some day, for sure we will loose many-many files.

Of course, i also have something what i dislike on os4depot, and what will not changes by wish of admins, but, its still better than aminet just because of snapshots, comments, passphrase, speed up updates and so on. Today (like we it or not), os4depot is the best place for os4 files, and , while we can say what is defacto and what is shmakto, almost all new os4 users use os4depot only, and just do not know anymore what is aminet is it.

I really see no point why you have so strong opinion about os4depot for now, but its of course your wish. Its just a bit bad, that users all the time loose your software, which are good (all those libs, netsurfs, plugins and such).

@alfkil

We always can add to bounty that phrase: "author should provide his latest sources", and when you will feel that you tired and not in interest to work on it, or just want to join force with someone else, then code will help a lot. Later anyone can grab your sources, and works with it. That of course a bit suck will be, but still, better than nothing.

@cha05e90
Very possible that mr2 and tonyw not have that library, and while for one it give exit on the begining, for other one it start by some luck, and crashes on text input. Because tonyw have betatester system, i think he have some new additional checking in os4, and because of it it "exit" for him, but not that checking for mr2 (public release of OS), and programm starts, and then later it give crash.

@mr2, tonyw
Try plz to install reqtools.library from os4depot.

@328gts
When i remove reqtools.library fromlibs: , i have the same crashlog as you send me. So, install it from os4depot.

There is bad exit from programm then while some library not presend. I think we need add window message which will say "you dont have that library" and do correct exit.

@djrikki
Media section looks nice. But imho a bit too much about past, and to small about present. I.e. 3 videos about present, and tons of videos of old games, which imho a bit too much. But progress are here, soon it will be pretty nice site which we can show for newbes :) (and not the last think here to avoid too much past/old stuff, its because newbes mostly not in interest about past)

@mr2

Gm. Sounds strange .. But send me new crashlog, maybe it will show something.

@tonyw
Quote:

But because it was compiled without -g , that offsets not give me much (i cant use addr2line, for see where exactly bug happens). But with new binary, i can do that (if you will send me crash log). The libraryes which are used by amifig are that ones:

locale.library
dos.library
asl.library
layers.library
intuition.library
graphics.library
gadtools.library
diskfont.library
reqtools.library
utility.library
datatypes.library
icon.library
workbench.library

For example on morphos, NULL pointer bug offten happens when library are not present. But imho, all those libraryes are default os4 setup ? And in code (as i can see) we have all those "ifs" which check if library was opens or not.. Maybe for you some library not present, and amifig tryes to exit and give bugs..

Anyway, send me a new crashlog.

ps. I send you PM about LodePaint.
