MUI (Magic User Interface) Please?

ORSM T · 04 June 2007, 19:19

The version I have from Aminet won't install. Error at line 229 then aborts.

keropi · 04 June 2007, 19:23

maybe you need the new version installer, like the one on 3.9 ...

Just tried the installer from 3.9 and it won't even initiate the install with that. Damn.... Error reads "Can't open Lib file " " in line 299" Humpfffff.

How did you unpack the MUI archive?

keropi · 04 June 2007, 20:50

oh yeah, unpacking to windows and then transfer to amiga does not work

Toni Wilen · 04 June 2007, 21:59

yes, there is file called " " (single space only) that is not compatible with any non-amiga filesystem afaik

You need to unpack it in real Amiga (or inside emulation)

ORSM T · 05 June 2007, 03:37

Ahhhhhh.... Thank you Amiga Gods. Yes much of my Miggy World is emulated at this stage. I am almost set up. The A1200 is ready to go, and the A500 will be ready once I have the V7 roms and a scsi drive in the A590. PCMCIA/Compactflash is organised, then it's file transfer time.....

ORSM T · 05 June 2007, 04:07

Bingo.... Installed after unpacking in emulation. Thank you. Although this is supposed to be public now I thought. It's asking to be registered, and needs a keyfile. ???

Josh · 05 June 2007, 05:30

Yes, it needs a keyfile ;-)

Cheers Josh

And this is obtainable? I don't think you can register the software anymore, so there must be another method to register? Edit... Yes, you can still register... http://www.sasg.com/cgi-sasg/order_info?app=mui

AFAIK you don't need to register MUI unless you want to do something with it ? (I mean writing a program that uses MUI). I never registered it and it never asked me to register.

I am using it with Magic Workbench. Maybe that is why, but it has most options ghosted.

keropi · 05 June 2007, 07:59

you can certainly register it, I did about 4-5 months ago... but don't expect to get a personalized key, the author will send you a key of some friend of his, because his amiga died and can no longer make keys... it sux...

Hmmmm??? So he is legitimately pirating his own software? Not a good example to set I must say....

and how does he keep a track of keyfiles :P

keropi · 05 June 2007, 21:10

nowdays, I doubt more than 10 ppl per year register MUI LOL

BippyM · 05 June 2007, 21:12

I was hinting that this keyfile is probably illegally within the public domain by now

keropi · 05 June 2007, 21:55

there are several... I had some until I decided to register MUI, to my surprise I got this "generic" one... dissapointing at least...

02 February 2014, 20:47

if I get the Key from MUI I dont unterstand how to copy it.

Store the mui.key in S and reboot.

If you have instead the library of this thread http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=37249&page=3, post 53, that file should go into your System:Libs.
