Title: Hollywood now also available for MorphOS
Post by: softwarefailure on December 11, 2002, 03:23:46 PM

A native MorphOS version of Hollywood (http://www.airsoftsoftwair.com) is now available. This PPC version is of course much faster than the 68k one, so many effects can now be displayed in real time at an acceptable speed (on 68k computers most of the CPU intensive effects were precalculated and displayed then to make them appear smoothly). It is already very fast on my Blizzard PPC with 200mhz so it should really fly on a Pegasos system.

So you can create now cool applications, games and demonstrations even for PPC and convert them also into native PPC executables! All Hollywood CD-ROMs shipped from now, will contain the 68k and MorphOS PPC version. If you already have the first edition of the Hollywood CD-ROM you can request the MorphOS version of Hollywood from me by sending an e-mail to me. By the way, if you want your Hollywood CD-ROM before christmas, it is high time to order now.

Thats cool. I look forward to an OS4 version too :-)

Lets hope this sells well enough to keep development going...

Very nice indeed.

Given the availability of PowerPoint codecs in open source projects like OpenOffice, it would definitely be nice to see support for importing/exporting the PPT format at some point!

Well, guess I won't be buying Hollywood afterall as I won't support any company that supports MorphOS.  Oh well.

@LordSteven:
That's a bit extreme...why not just buy the AmigaOS version? Selling one less AmigaOS version is not likely to make them drop MOS support, if that's what you're after.

Isn't that a bit petty?
What is your reasoning?

He's not the only one to think like that.
