As Deadwood said, you won't need to create scripts. Emuv0 will be integrated into the system, and you'll be able to click on 32-bit applications as you normally do for 64-bit applications.
If you want to create scripts, follow these steps:
Using a text editor, create a text file and write the command Emuv0 followed by the name of the application. Save the file in the same location as the application, add an icon and in Tooltypes, enter the command C:IconX.
I tried ModExplorerNG (from archives). It doesn't crash my system - it shows a message window that bsdsocket cannot be opened - that's is expected at this time as network emulation is not yet working.
Okay, great, I created the scripts just for testing purposes. In the video, in addition to the VAMP request file, there is also the Vintage Player request problem and the AROSAmp request file that crashes the system, see video.
To run EmuV0 instead of using Shell every time, I created a small script so that you only need one click to start Hollywood programmes, see video.
Please keep in mind that emulator will eventually be integrated with the system so double-clickin a 32-bit problem will just start it like it was a 64-bit program. Don't spend too much time integrating current shell-based interface, because it will be removed.
Okay, problem solved. WAMP is now working. It was a problem with the Skins path. I have now shortened it and made sure that VAMP works from any path.
As you can see from the video, I have the plug-ins in Libs/Hollywood. The Hollywood folder is specific to Hollywood programmes and should not interfere with the 64-bit libraries. However, if you find a way to move Hollywood to Tools/EmuV0, that would be better.

With VAMP, at least in my test, it is not possible to load a file, corrupted graphics in the request file.
Thanks for the screenshots. I'm aware of those UI glitches but they have lower priority for now unless they block functionality from working. Right now I added to my TODO the lack of menus in RNOEffects. If any of the UI glitches block functionality - please explicitly desribe that.
It might be that Hollywood has hardcoded LIBS: path and will look for plugings there, however on 64-bit LIBS: is for 64-bit libraries, Hollywood would have to look in LIBSV0:. I'll see if that is something that can be worked around. If not - they will have to be copied into programs directory.
About VAMP - please record me a video/make screenshots of how you trigger this error. I don't know how to use these tools.
In reality, it is not necessary to copy the plug-ins into the programme folder. Usually, even on Amiga, I have all the plug-ins in the Libs/Hollywood path, except for some old Hollywood programmes where you have to copy the old plug-in into the folder (priority path), All this avoids copying lots of plug-ins.
After testing it with all the plug-ins in the VAMP folder, it still does not work; it cannot open the images, see screenshot!
You need to install the missing Hollywood plugins for programs who require it. Copy them directly to program's directory. I had to do this to run most of the Hollywood programs.
I tried Deadwood on AROS One VAMP and got a request for ‘Ahx’, while LilCalendar asked me for ‘Sqlit’.
I also tried ModExplorerNG, but it doesn't work (it crashes the system). RNOTunes asks for MuiRoyale, and MiniSID gives an ‘error building custon’ message.
I'm now accepting bug reports of broken application functionality or functionality that crashes the emulator. Please hold off reporting graphical glitches at this moment unless they make some functionality broken. Also if a Hollywood application you use is not on the list above, test it as well and report back.
Notes:
- support for sound, network, 3D and custom screen is missing
- delete your current SYS:Tools/EmuV0 and install this package from scratch
Great job, I hope RNOTunes will work too, ZuPlayer is very important, on 64Bit we don't have any MOD players with GUI.
Another important Hollywood software is ‘IconEditor’.
