AROS Vision 2.3 with Wildfire 7

[OlafSch]

I have just uploaded the newest version of AROS Vision. It includes the full version of Wildfire 7 and the newest version of AMOS Pro (bugfixes). Additionally it includes the "Game Master System", a developer kit for programming games.

more informations are here:
http://aminet.net/package/dev/misc/gms_user

it is now freeware

More informations about Wildfire:

Based on this I have included a extension in AMOS Pro that makes it easy to write games. A small example (opens a AGA screen and loads IFF picture):

G Init Gms
G screen open 0,320,256,256,lowres
G Load IFF "clown.pic",0
G Wait Lmb
G reset

Reference of this extension:

Additionally I have included new software like Netsurf AGA and added mod support (plays by doubleclick)

It can be downloaded as always from this site (tested on WinUAE and FS-UAE):

Also new online-manual of Magellan (the base of AROS Vision):

Most important WinUAE settings for Aros Vision:

Add the installation directory, for example C:\Aros_Vision as DH0 and set the volume name to SYSTEM

Set the location of the ROM files correctly:

Thanks Peter I've done that, sometimes it loads to a part workbench with the icons at the bottom but in lo res and no background but still reports the error other time it just load to a AROS shell. I've copied the config from the website so not sure what if it's me or the program at fault.

You use WinUAE? I have created a manual some time ago

the same for FS-UAE (JIT works on Windows in newest Versions)

I do not know if it hangs. It seems that a assign does not find a dir in user-startup. You can edit user-startup and remove the line. Is it a window showing the message? Then close it.

i seem to have not seen this "System" in user-startup. Easiest way is to edit user-startup and change "System:" to "Sys:". I will also change it in next version.
