Less than 12 Hours for a new Bounty to Toast all other bounty's
« on: September 17, 2010, 09:52:46 PM »
The clock is ticking and in less than 12 hours we will reveal a new Bounty that will Toast all other bounty's that came before it in the Amiga scene. We wish to thank a very generous donator for his kindness.
 
Be the first one to guess what it is and get $100 donated in your behalf. The number 12 is also a clue.
 
 
Best regards

Alladin 4D, perhaps?

EDIT: Err. No. Wait. Gotta be VT5 (Video Toaster 5).

At first you rendered your statement wrong, it's nothing to do with Aladdin 4D. But then you were getting warmer.

Your thinking too much about modern times, digg into your Amiga past.

Well. My last bet it Millenium then.

But just because I don't know of any program with a 12 in it and Millenium is one of the most well known tools.

EDIT: Also. The Mayans consider 2012 the beginning of the end (aka. the last millenium).

12 is not a product name, it's a really big number.

Wow..  Interesting use of that word..
"rendered"..  Hmm..  That would make me wonder ...

And then he was getting warmer.. With the VT5 bit..
And with the recent OpenSourcing of some of that software...
So, a renderer with a VT relation that is 12 somehow?

Wish I knew more about that product line...  :)

Hmmmmmm,

Could it be a new bounty to get the open sourced Video "Toast"er software, including Lightwave5.x for the Amiga ported to AmigaOS4.x, AROS, & MorphOS2.x?

That would be something to "Toast", but as some have already written in the past, much of the Video Toaster code is badly commented and written, and also so tied to the original Amiga's custom chips that the original code is of little use to someone porting it (more like re-writing it from scratch).

I can't quite figure out what the number 12 would have to do with the above though.

Edit: Perhaps it is the open sourcing of the group of programs and updates to programs called "Millenium" and that there are 12 programs or updates included?  I would have to get my Millenium package out and count the number of programs it includes.

Most, if not all the VT4 code has already been open sourced for a long time.

Hmm... don't even understand the thread title 'Less than 12 Hours for a new Bounty to Toast all other bountys in the Amiga Market' (must be an american thing) :confused:

Here is the UK a Bounty is a chocolate bar made with coconut and toast is basically grilled bread... :)

So my guess is it's a melted chocolate/coconut sweet lightly grilled on a slice of bread... :)
