OK, I'm starting the build and testing of the new version 1.3 of AROS One 64bit!

I'm not planning any further updates to Core or EmuV0 right now so it should be ok to release distribution now.

Thank you. If there are no new developments or updates coming for Core and Emuv0, I may build and distribute the new version of AROS One 64Bit v1.3 next week.

Thanks also to all the developers who have made it possible for AROS One to grow and improve!

Looks really good @AMIGASYSTEM. The new version will be a major step up in terms of usability I think

For the various emulations, shortcuts have been created on the BoingIconBar where you can launch the various emulations directly from the binary or through scripts to launch the applications or games directly.

For 32-bit, as already mentioned in other posts, it will be possible to launch supported Hollywood applications. All 32-bit software is located in a special folder named AROS-32Bit, see screenshot.

Well without the Big help of @deadwood maybe the new version couldn't see the light...anyway i found a problem with the keys used on instrument editor (they are all messed up..). I'll try to fix..

Thanks to Farox & Deremon, ‘FastTracker II Clone’ has been ported to AROS 64-bit!

There are lots of new features in the new version of AROS One 64-bit, including emulation of 32-bit Hollywood software.

On AROS One 64bit, there will be a folder in Extras called AROS 32bit where you can launch them with a simple click on the Applications icon.

WeatherBar installed on AROS One 64Bit, created new backgrounds and new skins, see screenshot!

WeatherBar is small and simple freeware that displays the weather forecast for your location in a very convenient manner, right on your Wanderer.

To enter your city's data, go to the website "https://www.bbc.com/weather"
and once you have typed the name of your city or municipality in the appropriate tab,
and pressed enter, the 7 numbers to be added to the ‘WeatherBar’ configuration will appear in the browser address bar next to the link, see screenshot.
The weather numbers found can be added directly either on the Preferences GUI,

The weather numbers found can be added directly either on the Preferences GUI,
or manually in the configuration file named ‘WeatherForecast.cfg’.

On ArosOne Wanderer, Dopus4 and ZuneARC now also support WDZ and LZOP archive file types.

Datatype descriptors have been created for WDZ and LZOP, which will allow Wanderer to automatically recognise these new archive formats. In the screenshot, you can see all the archives supported by Wanderer, Dopus4 and ZuneARC. All def_Icons in the icon tooltypes have ZuneARC as their tool.

WDZip Compressed Archive files are the most popular type of files to carry the WDZ file extension, originally developed by PC SOFT for WinDev. Our data shows that WDZ files are frequently utilized by PC users in United States and popular on the Windows 10 platform.

LZOP is a file compressor similar to gzip. Its main advantages over gzip are much higher compression and decompression speed at the cost of some compression ratio.

Also available on AROS One 64Bit Theme prefs, it will now be possible to preview all themes, install new themes, replace or save the chosen theme, themes can be installed from Zip and WDZ archives.

Some changes have been made to the Lua script to align gadget paths. This version will also be available on Aros One 32bit and AROS One 68k.

Hi,

Thank you, was confused before.

If you have Extras in DH1, you are correct, but if you look at the ‘original’ Extras startup-sequence: it is assigned to SYS:Extras

Hi,

Except if you have two partitions and Extras: is on DH1: Does SYS:Extras still work?

Jeff, SYS:Extras or Extras: it's the same thing, practically nothing changes!

Hi,

Not sure if this was advised or fixed before but I found that the AmiFox entry in SYS: Prefs/Env-Archive/,iconbar.prefs needed a little change

from SYS:Extras/ to Extras:

Thanks for the information!

I remember Kalamatee was making some fixes for 64-bit detection in Ryzen CPUs and that's already integrated in the nightly so should be out in next update.

@deadwood

On .amiga-news.de, a user reported a compatibility issue with AROS One 64bit and VirtualBox. Basically, on an ‘AMD Ryzen 9’ PC, a message appears indicating that the system is not compatible with x86-64!

Given the minor imperfections in the new Zune Prefs features that allow you to round buttons and frames, I have created preference scripts so that users can choose whether to use the ‘rounded’ or classic ‘rectangular’ skins with a simple click, see screenshot

Zune Prefs with rounded frames are now also available on AROS One 32bit, but here too there are some minor imperfections.

On AROS 64bit, they can be seen on the curvature of the white dots, while on AROS 32bit, grey smudges can be seen in the curvatures.

I am preparing the new updated version of AROS One 32Bit, which will be released in the next few hours and will have all the configurations created on 64Bit, all the new software and updates released.

Created some PDF documents multilanguage named ‘Vim Cheat Sheet’ in the VIM folder." concise reference guide summarising key information, commands or formulas for quick access, useful for users who are less familiar with this powerful Editor, see screenshot.
