Power Icons

[AmiKit]

Check whether the SYS:AfA_OS_Libs folder exists and all the libraries are there. If you installed the AfA_OS_Libs folder into different location make an assign AfA_OS_Libs: pointing to the location.

Also the AfA_OS_Loader should be started right after C:AddDataTypes line in your startup-sequence. Then turn off your Amiga and start it again.

Un-install AfA_OS and install PowerIcons instead if it doesn't help.

You don't need to install PowerIcons. AfA definitely starts with icon support. If it doesn't then something went wrong during the install. IIRC, the line inserted in the startup-sequence which assigns AfA_OS_Libs: to the directory where the libraries are kept always points to Libs:AfA_OS_Libs regardless of where you actually install them. So as AmiKit said, you need to change that line to the location where you actually put the AfA libraries so that AfA_OS_Loader can find them. Make sure the Assign command comes before the loader. Also, make absolutely, 100% certain that PowerIcons is not running at the same time as AfA, as I suspect they are incompatible and neither will work if they are both running (though I'm not certain of that).

AfA can be tricky to set up but persevere with it. It's faster and has more features than PowerIcons.

How is that assign command looking like in the ss?

[motorollin]

Something like "Assign AfA_OS_Libs: Libs:AfA_OS_Libs"

For example:

C:AddDataTypes REFRESH QUIET
Assign >NIL: AfA_OS_Libs: SYS:MyPath/AfA_OS_Libs
C:AfA_OS_Loader

[weGuru]

Still no png icon support

[motorollin]

Can you post your startup-sequence and the location and contents of the AfA_OS_Libs drawers?

hmm, looks like I should figure out how to make 32 bit png icons

 :-D


maybe I should install this stuff on my WinUAE?

so much to do...so little time!  :crazy:

[merlin3d]

Need a video card 24Bit? Or my config is compatible!

[motorollin]

That all looks fine. Can you just confirm that the AfA_OS_Libs folder is in the root directory of your Workbench partition?

[weGuru]

it sure is....

By the way...do i need any libs to get it to work

[motorollin]

I don't think you do. Can you try this: Open up a shell window and type in "resident" (without the quotes) and press enter, then post the results.
