As many people have already noticed, the recently released Hollywood SDK comes with source codes for several example plugins. Among them are source codes for plugins that enable Hollywood to load PCX images and AIFF sound files. Due to popular demand Airsoft Softwair has now released these two plugins also as binaries for all platforms supported by Hollywood.

You can download the plugins from the official Hollywood portal. Thanks to Hollywood's cross-platform plugin system versions for AmigaOS3 (Classic), AmigaOS3 (FPU), AmigaOS4, MorphOS, WarpOS, AROS (Intel), Linux (PowerPC), Linux (Intel), Linux (ARM), Mac OS (PowerPC), Mac OS (Intel), Windows and Google's Android platform are provided.

Airsoft Softwair is proud to present the immediate availability of the Hollywood 6.0 SDK. This is the first full release of the Hollywood SDK. Whereas previous versions only contained the necessary header files, the full release also contains an extensive documentation covering almost 350 PDF pages. On top of that, the SDK contains well-commented source codes of example plugins and makefiles for all supported platforms. With this release Airsoft Softwair completely exposes all interfaces for the very first time to enable interested parties to create their own plugins and make Hollywood even more powerful! A new SDK section devoted to plugin development has also been added to the official Hollywood forums. Adding the 850 pages of the Hollywood 6.0 manual there are now almost 1200 pages of documentation which make Hollywood one of the biggest Amiga applications ever. Thanks to the Hollywood documentation system all reference manuals are available as AmigaGuide, HTML, CHM and PDF and can also be viewed online. The SDK is now available for free download from the official Hollywood portal.

This release was brought to you by Airsoft Softwair - the hardest working men in code business.

Three years after the release of Hollywood 5 Airsoft Softwair is proud to announce the immediate availability of Hollywood 6: Epiphany. Hollywood 6 is a massive update with a myriad of new functions. The most important new feature is the complete abstraction of the core components display, audio and DOS. These can now be completely replaced by plugins which opens up totally new possibilities. For example, it is possible to replace Hollywood's inbuilt display driver with a custom implementation now. A plugin, which uses this new interface to make OpenGL available to Hollywood, will be released shortly.

• I add In this version a realtime spellchecking Realtime Spellchecking
  A normal single word checking was added, too.
• The text wrap around objects (pictures, shapes...) now Text wraping
  The picture shows three kinds of text wraping: left, around and top/bottom wraping.
• Any wraping is now with usage of its brain ;)
  Because the text was splitting while wraping at a space character, if possible. Only with long words it did't work. So they was split at any character.
• With the mouse movable separator bars of the header/footer.
  After a bugfixing its possible to resize the header/footer with the mouse. Click on the bar at bottom/top of the header/footer and you can resize now the header/footer.

From Friday 27th of February until Sunday the 1stof March 2015, the Amiga Club Osnabrück and the Amiga Club Steinfurt will be hosting another user meeting.

If you are interested in MorphOS, you are welcome to join us. In addition to various Pegasos systems, you can expect to see Mac mini, PowerMac, iBooks, PowerMac G5 and Efika systems. Of course, other hardware platforms are very welcome as well with at least one AmigaOS4 system announced to be present .

If you want to bring your own hardware, please inform us as soon as possible because the space for external users is limited. Of course you can always just stop by for a visit if you like.

I know a laptop running MorphOS takes no big space and is portable, but I still need to know about the number of attendees. So if you are interested, please contact me as soon as possible.

The participation is as always free of charge.
