As developer, we get this emails but we can not response because the AmiStore backend has a bug since its release. We can only read the text but have no email from the customer to answer. I think it is the same with Alinea.

A direct email to the developer should work better ;)

When i was younger, i did the same ;) Now it is a bit harder to find time and motivation...

The theme accent ist built without using images. So you simply can adjust the colors in the palette prefs.

In the next image, you see what colors are to change. On the right side, you need a dark to light gradient, the lightest color needs a copy to index 3 (4th color).

@white: I am glad that all is working now! Have Fun...

@walkero
I will look into the MUI Settings. But so e things are not to solve i think.

I tried to change the path to sys instead of workbench, but it seems MUI needs Workbench, did not work. I will check it again.

@samo79
thanks for the report, i will look into it.

@walkero
I have to try the old themes if they work. The. I can upload it, amiga-look should be no problem.

@Petrol: Thanks ;)

I did a quick upload here, maybe a new download works better:

www.amiboing.de/data/themes/evo/EVO.lha

Unpack it that all content is in : sys:Prefs/Presets/Themes/EVO

(it should unpack to sys/prefs/presets and there should be a Themes/Evo drawer if i remember right)

www.amiboing.de/data/themes/evo/EVO_MUI.lha

Mui adjustments to match Evo Theme. Within the archive you can see the needed structure. After all files are there, in MUI Prefs on top at "Settings" should be an EVO Entry.

Screenshot:

NOTE: I have to make some minor adjustments (a arrow within a workbench window is not in the right position). Also in Notepad, the cursor is very light. But maybe i can not adjust this because in an "old" theme, the coders seems to make the color combinations only with a dark ugly gray... when i light it up (like in evo), then the cursor does not match. Would be nice to have a cursor pen (in string gadget there seems to be a routine which colors the cursor to black if background and curser color are to similar).

It is also not final, if i have time i will upload it to os4depot. This version only should be a test for me and os4welt users, but it seems some people want to try it...

Really strange. I have no idea what is wrong. I can not ssee the image very clear but i thunk sime graphics are missing (arrows on scrollbars).

Here a screenn, i hope this link works (i try to do it on an ipad)

sys:Prefs/Presets/Themes/EVO

Add a drawer Themes to your preset drawer....
i did it because i want wo make more themes and keep it clean. Maybe in future i remove the themes drawer...

The theme looks different than it is designed. I think the path is wrong. It seems all graphics for gadgets in windows are missing. I am not shure why your icon is missing but we should try to get the theme work before.

From which page you have downloaded it? Currently it is only at os4welt.de available but i will upload it soon to os4depot.

The archive has to unoacked here...
sys:Prefs/Presets/Themes/EVO

... this should be the place where all files have to be. When it is on a different place, images can not loaded.

Hi, it is just a theme. I did not anything with icons.

Can you please send an screenshot?

Good Idea to collect bugs!

I found an issue with the notification system. Would be nice to check it on your systems (i just installed the update over my existing system).

If i remember right, the settings for the new notification should be placed in the GUI Prefs. But no setting found here. Would be nice to make it less ugly blue ;)

Note: Notification Prefs is available in Prefs but it is the old Ringhio one and does not work. So for future it also would be nice to remove it and the wbstartup entry for it too.


Beside this, the uptate works well on my X1000, thanks all involved for the release!

@noXLar

Hi, thanks for using emotion ;)

1. For dragging the window, we tried to make it as much as possible with the guid-lines of AmigaOS. So we decided to use the usual title bar for dragging. I will talk with Frank, the coder, if we add the other moving or not. From coding side, i am not shure if it is possible without tricks.

If you press "b" while playing a video, you get a frameless window and then you can do it your way.

2. a basic playlist was planned for a next version. Our time and the whole AmigaOS situation stopped us to focus on an update...

3. It is a AmigaOS thing, i think the people here can help you. You can use DefIcons to set a default player for a video type. Here a screenshot...



We have Version 1.7 finished since over a year. It was planned to publish with the new RadeonHD drivers and video acceleration with graphics card. A-Eon wrote us last August to make the support as fast as possible but no sign since... very sad. FullHD on a Sam460 with a new Radeon RX card works well without much CPU consuming ;) Maybe we release the update soon, i will ask frank.

Currently we have to focus to our own projects and make small games for other platforms. It is important for our life ;) If we have more time, we are back again. But also the whole shitty situation around AmigaOS is not a good thing for movitate us. Also for porting our games there are bugs/missing features reportet for Nova but here also no fixes. So we can not do it. But the main reason for silence is time.

Regards and have fun....

@jabirulo
Here some images.

This is a gfx card with a bigger height which does not fit into the PCI-E Slot if a SATA controller is used. Many of the gfx cards needs more space or two slots. A solution could be such a PCI-E Riser card:







This kind of card is a perfect one for a sam460 because it is very slim and there is enough place between both cards (SATA+GFX). And if you want a small case, this is low profile and works well (hard to find!!!):




When my Sam460 was new, i built the system without fans as silent Amiga ;) But in this small case (also tried another small case) it was to hot and AmigaOS/Sam460 freezes. So if you want a silent Computer, be shure that you have a bigger case then mine and maybe put a silent case fan into it.

P.S. right click + open in new tab in images for fullsize!

Sorry, i will upload the images to our website tomorrow...

Note: If you put the gfx card in a sam460, be shure if you don´t cover the PCI Slot. If you want to use DMA für S-ATA, then you won´t be happy with the internal port... it is slow!

You can use a PCI-E Riser card:

Here some images from my "old" Sam460 which i sold some weeks ago:

And here an image from a Club3D Radeon7750 which is very small and should fit into the Sam460 with using a SATA Controller (slim enough!)

...links only for pictures because i don´t find a button to upload them here ;)

@Joeled
I saw Frank (Goos) playing the game here on his X1000. Works well!

@kas1e: Thanks for porting!

... it is more like this:

Just got an answer from Frank. Yes it is within the ffmpeg package, it is the avformat which has to be adjusted.

Regards,
Thomas

@Hans

SSL: puh, maybe Frank has to include it on a different place. He know it better as he does it (and also had begun). So please belive not me to much in case of coding ;) But Frank doesn´t write a lot. So i have to say some words from time to time to break the silence ;)

Screenblanker also here does not start, if i remember right Emotion is using application.library for this (i ask Frank, i am not the coder in our team ;) ).

For Updates and news:
An update for Emotion is in the work but needs some time. As written before on other places, the last year was not easy for us and we had to focus on keeping alive. So Amiga related stuff where less then before. We hope that we find more time this year (ehm, if i say "we", i mean Frank because i only do concept and graphics/gui ;) ).

The biggest task is to bring SSL Support to emotion, so ffmpeg (the libraries around) has to be adjusted and this needs time and is very much work. So the main feature for a next release is this feature. Second, we need an "eject" button... a very, very big task for me (i have paint an icon, needs 5 -10 minutes). And if there is really a problem with screenblanker, we have a new thing on our list.

The developmnent blog is also very outdated, simply no time and no much readers.

I think Raziel takes it a little bit easy than it is. Yes it is a paid product as candi that not works for you (but for all/most others, it seems..). But behind the projects there are only two people where only one can code and they fight for every spare time minute. The whole situation, our and the AmigaOS situation is not the best. It is also not very motivating to spend freetime if around nothing works well.
We hope for a fast tabor release that we all can look forward. Currently i have the feeling that only a hand full of users are out and we hope that it could rise a bit again.

Our work is half fun/hobby based but also half business based. We could sell around 150 Emotions, we do not make secrets about such things. After Amistore fee, there are 16,- Euros here and then on top some tax (income for each and business tax). So the net amount of 2400 is getting reduced a little bit again. Then a 50/50 split and here we are...
So it is nice for AmigaOS software and we are very happy.
BUT we also see it a bit through pink glasses (is this the right word for it, Rosarote Brille ;)? ). Frank spent more than 6 Month in FULLTIME on Emotion. So in every thread we hear "it is paid, paid, paid and we want it uptaded every day", it makes it not easyer to get motivated. If we spent the time not for Emotion than on games on other platforms instead, we maybe never had such a year like last one.

In future, we also have to focus. We want to make some AmigaOS related stuff but we don´t know how much time we can spend. With our game engine, we can build some games based on existing ones. So i can make graphics for another platformer or work on new games pased on our prototypes (we have a lot of them ;) ), this needs time.
And then, this could be the time for Frank to work on AmigaOS stuff (if i am behind with my gfx stuff). But all ideas and dreams also could be delayed. For instance we want to support PS4 later this year, so Frank has to port the engine to this system which needs much time too (PC, Xbox, Switch is done!).

Maybe it sounds a bit negative, but we are looking forward. And becaus we had to focus last year, the current one has started much better. So we can see it slightly positive again ;)
