Software News : AmiKit 1.3.0 - Now with PNG, dual PNG and OS4 icon support!

Posted by AmiKit on 2007/2/21 16:30:05 (1844 reads) News by the same author

We are very proud to announce the AmiKit now supports modern icon formats. This is the first time the OS3.x based environment is able to show and use PNG, dual PNG and OS4 icons. Moreover, Directory Opus Magellan II (included in AmiKit) is able to use them too, finally! Look at the screenshots!

This is a significant accomplishment since Magellan users haven't even been able to display PNG icons to this point. All this would not be possible without the magic work of Bernd Roesch and his excellent AfA_OS project. Also big thanks to Ken Lester, a devoted AfA & AmiKit beta tester, who painted dual PNG icons for AmiKit and gave it a more modern look.

A separate AfA_OS archive providing the same new features for non AmiKit users will be available on Bernd?s website shortly.

I don?t think I will install this on E-UAE, too slow for my taste, but maybe when / if some one writes a JIT compiler for E-UAE PPC. My primarily need for E-UAE is compatibility whit classic programs, I wonder how well the new patches works whit classic programs.
