It says BGUI, in list at right side, so maybe BGUI, or a mix.
V3.28
Not sure what’s going with “DISCO” button, but it crashes hard, they should maybe disable that button, on AmigaOS4.1 or try find out what it is going on. Anyway should be easy to remember not press that button.
"Minify" button also crashes, but you can be ignored, it will bring up bit squashed MINI gui. it looks like the button are scaled, but does not take in count the large window title on AmigaOS4.1, due to the extra large font size used as standard.

Something did not say in changes, is that updated some stuff to make it compile, it did not compile with latest SDK, some commands where removed from DOS, or renamed.

lthough GUI is tooooo tiny
there prefs in IMP3, you select screen mode, pick lowres screen like 640x480, I also changed the font as topaz8 font don't look so good on squere pixels, i found nice bullet font with none bold/italic close to 8 pixel, think i picked 10 pixel font, the font name can not be viewed after its picked.
then I used "Screens" prefs in AmigaOS4.1 and clicked the Inser Open Screen button, picked the imp3 screem and changed GUI from "Like Workbench" to "Use Defaults", saved. and restarted imp3.
As for whdload stuff, i Pressed "Disk" button, pressed "root", until i found the top level, picked "!ONECLICK AMIGA FROM IMP" here you find WHDLOAD GAMES/DEMOS and MAGS.

I’m not saying you should, but it’s an easy way browse and find stuff.

IMP3 is "workbench friendly" program, not a game/demo.
It can open on its own screen too.
Not sure what IMP3 is, but its a fun program, to download and chat, play mods, and find & download stuff.
its not a stable program no, it crashes a lot, when changing tunes, and also workbench is unstable while using it, but the other day I had it running for few hours without issue.

AFAIK whload loads UAE, but AOS4's UAE port/version doesn't have bsdsocket emulation (or am I wrong?), that IMP3 uses for fetching/playing modules.
no no, you don't start imp3 in UAE, AmigaOS4.1 uses petunia (68K JIT) to start imp3. (WHDLOAD don’t work with network anyway.. As is none system friendly stuff.)
Well IMP3 downloads the DEMO or Game, then it tries to start it with WHDLOAD, it knows nothing about what happens next, IMP3 stops and waits for WHDLOAD to be done.
This when WHDLOAD-TO-UAE takes over. (Hopefully EUAE don't lookup while joining treads, or stop at calculating bogomips, I try with different EUAE and see if that helps.)
