N.AES

[lp]

On the firebee.
May be it is just me.

In that particular case, then naes will invoke the cf68klib and probably does feel slower where as xaaes is native coldfire build.

Not true to said too " event loop does not freeze when you open a menu", this was implemented in MyAES several years before XaAES around 13 years ago it was already present in first official version! Nothing relative to kernel module.

I was comparing Xaaes to N.Aes. But even when compare with MyAES, Xaaes still has that feature... and MyAES too. I hope to get my FireBee soon, then I'll try MyAES some more.

Soon a new version I hope, with some nice new features and some redraw speed up, still some crash unfortunately, I'm working to try fix it, it is more long than I thought. I will do a new video because some features are absolutely unknown from user.

Can you give us some heads up, of what to expect in a new version of MyAES ?

[OL]

Hello,

As already known:
- support 68000 computer
- work in STLow, ST Mid, ST High (already support from any 8 plans to 32 bits, probably not very interesting feature but something interesting to test in very slow configuration and discover some bugs!)
- Some spead up redraw (add menu option to be near TOS display speed for slow computer)
- reduce memory print to be able to run in 4Mo of ram with Mint and Teradesk (even I think it is not enough to work and nobody never use it like this! just to clean up code)
- Fix redraw issues and other bugs

New feature:
- Automatic resize jpeg desk photo
- Display windows content as label (even if window can't bee seen) - need video card with memory (Supervidel or Radeon) or very fast system (Aranym), to slow for other configuration. Add new AES call to manage video memory from video card
- Automatic management of desk content (optional) to reduce number objects diplayed on screen if not need
- Application option to not lock application with file selector (done) And add partial support Magic extended file selector (done)
- Automatic windows management staying displayed (optional) to unload screen (done).


Before realease
- Finish the last feature!
- Crash of the firebee with Yopla task bar when a program leave (random freeze) - new bug fixed April 29
- Lost of memory when use MXplay - new bug
- Try fix Kronos redraw issue (perhaps I will need to add redraw option)

Can you give us some heads up, of what to expect in a new version of MyAES ?

@OL:
Great I cant wait to see new version. I am using latest MyAES on my FireBee and I like it
I didnt check the documentation but is there an option to redraw whole desktop as it is in XaAES with CTRL+ALT+Clear/Home key combination?

[OL]

For the moment you have to wait, 68K looks running nicely but not the coldfire one and I have no Firebee to test, so very hard to fix the freeze I have with Yopla unfortunately, it's more than 1 month I try to do it thanks help from Lodovico without success

I'm going to add this, it looks quite easy, I have already some shortcut as CTRL + ALT + d to do a screenshot in scrap directory as "scrap.tga". I'm going to look at the shortcut in XaAES to try do the same.

Just verified it is already implemented CTRL + ALT + CLRHOME (for some years) should work, I can't test it on real computer

And where to get N.AES to try it out? Thx (I tried a google search)

I think it's still forsale, not sure, the link should be around somewhere.

[fmh]

Says it's still for sale here. I would contact Woller first.

I sent an email. I will let everyone know if it's available.

Edit: Well, he replied right away and it's available. Waiting for further information.

Any one knows what these settings are for:
qsbchars <-- ?
cqsbchars <-- ?

mpipesize <-- the messages queue size
sstacksize <-- should be the stack size of AES, kind of small?

[ThorstenOtto]

qsbchars <-- ?

mpipesize <-- the messages queue size
sstacksize <-- should be the stack size of AES, kind of small?

qsbchars = maybe bytes for *q*quarter-*s*creen-*b*uffer, the buffer that AES uses to save the screen contents when dropping down a menu. cqsbchars = maybe the same for color resolutions? dunno

The stacksize for AES is also quite small in TOS, ~2k in TOS 4.

[lp]

All of these are explained in the HYP that comes with NAES if one needs further info.

Is it in English?

The answer is earlier in the thread.

Nevermind, I found it in the HYP and Google help out with the translation.

[wongck]

Found a (major) difference between N.AES and XaAES.

N.AES is sending additional windows redraw message to the applications.
AES suppose to combine window redraws before sending.

So N.AES is less aggressive in combing the windows redraws.
( said other ways... less optimised )

Fantastic stuff, Olivier. And ending that video with the rocket launcher blast on Noir Désir's music!

[joska]

Impressive! It is obviously running on a very fast emulated machine, but still impressive. I did not know about the Mini V Mac port, I'll try that one tomorrow on my CT60.

Wow Awesomely great get stuff. it's insane
Totally blown away.

Thanks for the URL at the end.

[Faucon2001]

Wow Olivier, impressive demo.
... and DOOM with Tostaky in background is a joyfull experience.
Looking forward to seeing it finished.
Congrats.

MiniVMac MacII (color) emulation as diplayed is too slow on CT60, MiniVMac Mac Plus emulation is ok on CT60


Of course running doom in 1920*1080 TC with MxPlay playing music, will not work fine as here, MacII emulation is slow even on Aranym, but for other demonstration should be ok on CT60. For windows content display (not perfect as you can see), it can run nice as here on CT60 if you have video card with memory (Radeon or Supervidel) in this case it not use too much time process, without card except under Aranym this option should be remove because it need a lot of memory band width. Other options can run on any computer.
