ok.
About AROS test in real SAM460, IIRC it only supports sm501 video as output, so only SAM460ex, most, if not all of us, use a HD/RX gfx card on such machines.

I do have an EX board, but I'm a bit lazy to do it now, someday I may try it, but dunnot when.

Yes but 2015.d does not work with QEMU at all for some reason and I did not have time to find out why (maybe it now accesses something that's not emulated but I don't know what) so I went with the 2015.c version that works and should have all the fixes that are relevant for QEMU. The changelog for 2015.d only says that you can select between EHCI and OHCI but does not mention other USB fixes. It also only seems to be a problem with AROS, AmigaOS4 still works on QEMU with 2015.c U-Boot so it could also be an AROS issue. I'm not sure AROS works on real machine as nobody tried or replied with results so far.

@balaton

Did you try D version/release?

I see what you mean. Vault is having links to OS4Depot, but it is not a GUI for OS4Depot.

You know, there are two applications out there that already can do what you asked for. One is the OS4Depot GUI (https://os4depot.net/?function=showfil ... /filetool/os4depotgui.lha) and the other is the UHCTools (https://aminet.net/search?query=uhctools). Both of them are parsing the OS4Depot content. They might be better than Vault.

@walkero

Thank you for the new update.

Just an idea can't we link Vault to the os4depot database and add a search function? In my opinion that would be cool.

@3VILC

Welcome and congrats on buying one of a kind developement Sam460.

@smarkusg

Interesting, I don't remember seeing this game before.

@Petrol

VRAM is very slow to read when compared to RAM, at least on many our systems.

Maybe something wrong with my config or with the tool, but running the benchmark tool shows that readPixels is slower in compositing/Ogles2 than software renderer. (35-40 MB/s vs 730 MB/s).
Is it supposed to be right?

@everyone
A few minutes ago, I released a new version of Vault 1.1.0. Read more about it at
https://pms.walkero.gr/news/3 (amiga browser friendly page)
or
https://ko-fi.com/post/Vault-1-1-0-released-E1E01QKS88

Changes included

### Added
- Added the help menu with more links
- Added a busy bar and a status section at the bottom of the window to show activity

### Changed
- Changed the place of storing the cached files. Now they survive a reboot
- When a screenshot is not defined, the default is displayed

### Fixed
- Fixed the software sort order

@derfs
Vault recognises new images automatically. In the new version that I am working on, there will be a cache folder inside Vault's folder. If someone would like to redownload the images, they will have to delete the cache folder.

@gerograph

Thank you for the app and updates!

@DigitalDesigns

Thanks for the update!

@walkeroQuote:

Does Vault automatically check for new entries on each startup? or is it just images? maybe it can be added to settings if entries/images are refreshed automaticly or manually run (a bit like AmiUpdate), and for manual it will notify when there is an update.

Update MorphOS Version

Quote:

This is not true anymore ...tested it on a new MorphOS Demo. Found an old iBook G4, where I installed MorphOS. This is the first time MorphOS ever .

Bug: Once you swap from an existing list to another list, the "Tasks listview" is empty! I have to leftmousclick to populate the listview... I'll put that bug on my list, and try to figure out why.

Requirements: MCC TextEditor 15.55 -> Downloadlink

@khayoz
You are welcome. Glad you like it.

@DigitalDesigns

Nice, will try later.
