"Dual" PNG icons

[Amigaz]

Using it here on some of my Amiga's, first it was achieved with AfA_OS and an extra "Iconlib" now with the latest AfA version it's all integrated in the new package

It's a replacement for PowerIcons, yes

dual PNG icons are like the glowicons but now with the new AfA_OS they're 32bit like in OS4

A bit faster than Ken's Icons and IconBeFast

I've heard AfA OS can be a pain to get working. Is it worth installing it? Is the speedup that good?

It very easy to "install" and get working, I always take a peek at AmiKit's startup-sequence when using stuff that's also in AmiKit and use it's startup-sequence as a template..it has never failed me
It's very easy also to disable AfA....just comment out it's launch line in startup-sequence  ;-)

If you already use IconBeFast and don't need 32bit dual image icons and truetype ant aliased fonts there's no need imho to use AfA, the speedup with the new AfA isn't that big

Hmm I installed it as described in the document but my system just hangs when the Workbench screen opens. I tried adding "Set USESEMAPHORES 0" to the startup-sequence just before afa_os_loader but this made no difference  :-?

[EDIT]And yes I commented out VisualPrefs and PowerIcons[/EDIT]
