Post by: Jose on December 04, 2003, 04:00:30 AM

Ok, one more request,  before I buy the thing  I'd like to be sure what the latest version is, 2.0 according to my search....
Thx

I'm pretty sure 2.0 was the last version number. But, I've been wrong before and could be again. There's lots of knowledgable people on here who won't hesitate to correct me if I am!   ;-)

@Jose

Version 2 was the last. They (Digital Creations) pretty much were gone not too much later on, as they were 'absorbed' into Play Inc (formed Kiki Stockhammer and other ex-Newtek people).
Version 2 has a couple of better features such as a better zoom. Also the need for the dongle was removed as well.

I will also go as far as to say, that Brilliance (1 + 2) is the most stable application I have ever used. Never yet had a Guru.

Q: Does anyone recall the patch that was written by some French (?) coders, that allowed other picture types (JPEG, etc) to be loaded. I remember trying it out as there was a demo version available and it worked quite well. It would be handy to have right again.

Q2: How well does Brilliance work on WinUAE? I haven't tried it out yet and am wondering if it's useable? On my Mediator/Voodoo system, there was all manner of problems, until I connected the composite to a TV-in and used the TV screen ontop of the P96 one.

Works Perfectly on UAE as long as you create a "standard AGA amiga" config. I mean, no picasso and lots of chip and Z3 fast ram!  ;-)
