Mapparium - OpenStreetMap client for all Amiga systems

[ALB42]

@Dandy:

I check my (UAE) Setup where I test my things

Library Version/Release/Compilation Date is the same. Mapparium does not use any "additional" MUI Classes so I guess this should not be the problem.

(I never used MUI4 on classic Hardware, I use and test against 3.8 only on UAE and classic hardware (A1200), but the same code does work on MOS/AOS4, so I would assume it should work also with MUI4)

did you try an other Program like ColorIt or FPCMines from
http://blog.alb42.de/fpc-amigaaros-m68k/
?? if they work it should not be something with MUI (they use the same way for operating MUI classes) But this programs does not need a GFX card, (run fine with AGA 32 Colors, on my real A1200)

@kolla:

Does not make sense to make a non-FPU version, it has to calculate floating point Values with rather high precision. Softfloat is possible but VERY slow and it's nearly to slow already for a 68060 processor. On a 68030 (the last one without FPU) it will be definitly too slow to use.

Of course they work with a GFX card as well. It just meant they don't use cybergraphics.library function, only graphics.library and intuition.library functions to draw shapes and texts (and no images, where I neex CyberGFX)

Still playing with GPS (for Mapparium)

The testprogram became a own little tool to test GPS and record Tracks.So I put this to public as well.

GPSTool got a first official Release 1.0

(Amiga, AROS, MorphOS)

Many thanks for the work you have done so far on the Amiga OS4  version of Mapparium.  I quite enjoy using the version which appeared a few months back.    Is there any reason why the development has stopped and the version of this is no longer available for Amiga OS4?  :-(

Thanks, there are some reasons

• most important, I do not own a OS4 System, so it's very difficult for me to debug, test anything, and no WinUAE is not suitable, it's very slow and buggy.
• The LCL and fpc for OS4 is barely untested and also buggy, because no maintainer for except me and I have more than enough work on the other platforms to do.
• Someone downloaded, changed my Mapparium archive and uploaded it to OS4depot as free to share. In the end it even got published by AmigaFuture CD as public domain. Which would be not a problem at all for me, if someone asked me before hand, it was even my plan to do so, later. Maybe even later would be ok, but maintainer of OS4depot reacted a little bit strange to my questions about it, not even an apology (AmigaFuture at least apologized for the mistake), in the end it came that way that it was my fault. Sorry, no need for such things.
• The published version had some serious Bugs, which I could not reproduce on my UAE-OS4 and my archive.
• I like critics, but if they become destructive, I get really annoyed. (a thumb up to MOS-community for constructive critics and thumb down to OS4 for destructive/negative critics)

@wawrzon:

try to start it from shell.

There is a problem starting the problem via Icon currently, I'm on it.

ahh you are talking about Mapparium not about MUIMapparium.

Did you copy the Mapparium.fpcres along with the Mapparium file?

[ALB42]

Generally the Amiga version of fpc compiled programs should 1:1 work on AROS 68k, at least last time I checked that, see for example:
https://blog.alb42.de/2016/04/08/addition-to-m68k-aros/
(that are also m68k-amiga LCL programs with an *.fpcres file which got loaded as you see)
MUIMapparium does not have a fpcres file, because it's not lcl and therefore have no resources.

Hi lionstorm,

I got some answers that it should work (at least what I heard) and the 0.5 release got a special release for OS4 which fixed a problem with the Icon.

But as always the disclaimer... I do not have an OS4 computer so I can't really try and in UAE it seems to work as you see:




What you can try:
Delete/rename the Icon, start from shell maybe that will work? do you have MUI installed? of course it needs MUI (my UAE has MUI 3.9 default). Did you check the error console for any errors, I don't know how to access that in OS4, but there should be a way.
Did you try the 68k Version?

[ALB42]

Did you try to delete the MUIMapparium.info file and then start via shell?

With debug messages I did not mean the shell output, but the actual Debugout. I dont' know how to read that in OS4 (in MorphOS it's LogTool in AROS Sashimi). Maybe I should write such tool again (for AROS I did already long time before) to have it on all platforms available.

If the 68k Version Crash on Search you should have a crashlog?

I remember someone told me he use it on X5000 so I guess its not related to the actual machine. For me it looks like an MUI problem or pascal do something wrong on the OS4 event hooks which I already suspected before.

Sadly there is still no maintainer for FreePascal for OS4 to look into and debug that if that is true or what is the problem, there was a guy wanted to do that... but since that I did not hear anything from him about this again.
