Congratulation, Andreas! This seems to be a very, very fine update! With all the new features I guess version number 5 would had also been possible and justified. I hope to buy (and use! :-/) it soon! After christmas there is not much money in the pockets right now.

* Possibility to open URLs from Hollywood

What exactly does this mean? I can access text files or html files or anything and parse/download it?

No, it's much simpler:

Your answer is funny since I have bought the 4.0 version with Designer 2 version !

Congratulations with the new 'baby'!

The new year starts out very well... Hollywood 4.5 is out (just ordered), OS4.1.1 is appearently soooo close to release and then there is the 'X'-factor thingy, that is the talk of the town and keeps people up late attempting to solve the riddles. Amiga fans do really have fun just now!

Happy New Year everyone

Jesper

Well, if you expect Hollywood 4.5 to be available for free I have to disappoint you. Free updates are just not possible in this small market because I hardly get any new customers, so that the development of Hollywood is almost entirely financed by asking existing customers to upgrade their versions for a fee. Otherwise Hollywood would've long been abandoned, because it's incredibly much work to maintain this program for eight different platforms. Just imagine the amount of testing involved to make sure that every of the 70 example scripts works on OS3, OS4, MorphOS, WarpOS, AROS, Win32, OS X PPC, OS X Intel. And this is only testing! Now make sure that compiling executables works on every platform. And now implement new features and make sure it's working the same everywhere! I can assure you that's a hell of work... and 49 Euros for such a huge update as 4.5 is a real bargain because it took almost a year to develop 4.5... it's really only the upgrade sales that keep Hollywood alive, so everyone who wants to make sure that Hollywood development is continued, should buy that upgrade. The market is so small, that really every copy sold counts.

Hello,

I understand all you're points Andreas, cause i'm a professional developer too. Testing all the stuff would be a big mess !!!

I'll upgrade shortly.

Thanks a lot to make this awesome work !

And Happy new year !

I will be back for questions héhé.

Regards. Christophe.

Sure, I'll send it to you in a private mail.

BTW, could we expected soon an update of Hollywood Designer?

Depends on how well Hollywood 4.5 sells.... bad sales = bad motivation for Designer

Hello Andreas

Do you extorting us?

I paid before with my wife's bankcard, (neat move, hihi) but recently that one is stolen from her. So before I motivate you, I have to motivate her to visit the bank for a new one. However before I motivate her I have to motivate my customers to pay their debt to fill the account. So, please keep your motivation, I am sure we (users) all do our best to motivate you.

I am motivated in motivating you
