MUI 3.9 Released for AmigaOS 3.x (68k)
« on: June 08, 2014, 02:23:59 AM »
Terrific news from the AmigaOS MUI development team:

Quote
The MUI for  AmigaOS development team is proud to announce the immediate release of  version 3.9-2014R1 of the Magic User Interface for AmigaOS3/m68k. Please  find the release archive in our download section http://download.muidev.de/

This is the first release of MUI since  MUI 3.8. At least a 68020 CPU is required. A faster CPU and a graphic  board is highly recommended. Additionally MUI 3.9 will make use of 3rd  party system extensions like AfAOS.
 

Like all former releases a  keyfile is required to enable all available settings. Old keyfiles from  MUI 3.8 can be used without any restriction.

This release is  explicity declared as a beta release, because it been developed and  tested on an AmiKit installation running on WinUAE only.

Please  report any issues in the bugtracker along with a verbose description of  the problem as well as detailed instructions on how to reproduce the  issue.
This was announced on Friday, but it looks like no one around here noticed. Nonetheless it's nice to see MUI updates for both 68k and PPC Amigas are back with an active development team.

Thank you very much MUI Team!

It has been a long journey since the last 3.8 :o

I am really happy development on 68k MUI has resumed :)

Certainly interesting.
I may have to dig out the A2000 again.
But how the heck are we supposed to get keyfiles?

probably best to contact jens or thore on your issue. they've asked everyone testing the release to open tickets at https://muidev.de/query as they encounter them. :)

Have you seen this page? My understanding is that the keyfile generator is missing/lost, but he'll send you a keyfile in his/someone else's name.

I can confirm this is true.

may i ask just few things (since im testing a lot of stuff already and i hesitate to add anything to the list):
1. why now after all these years an update for amiga? what does it functionally bring?
2. i must say i wasnt expecting it. i ve moved on seeing open source alternatives like aros zune a better solution to concentrate on, simply because the code remains preserved.

zune is or might be available for all systems, because of its open nature, so why not support this instead?

i d like to add that, i hold yam/mui classes coders in all due respect for the continuous work all the years, even though i have not taken so much practical advantage of it so far, just wanna know whats up now seeing the pond drying out for us all (except the hardcore 68k fans ) alas.

It crashes on my A1200 with OS 3.1.

This'll be great news when it's working.

As I understand it these new classes are original code not written by Stuntzi so my question is, why not merge those additions with Zune to benefit everyone?
