Highlights of Amiga Active CD 19

Here are a few highlights of this Amiga Active CD. This is only to get you started, the whole CD is packed with useful and entertaining material. These highlights contain a few pointers, but half the fun is in exploring the CD yourself.

Sid4Amiga
Many of us still have fond memories of the C64's SID tunes. Here is the full version of a player for SID music. We also have a few SID tunes for you to listen to. We would have included more, but the CD is very tight on space this month, so watch out for some more next month.

WHDLoad
Staying with nostalgia. Many superb games and demos were written to be run from floppy disk only. WHDLoad provides a means of loading such games and demos from hard drive. We have over 600 game loaders and over 120 demo loaders.
DivX Players
DivX is one of the latest standards for playing animations and movies. DivX capabilities have been added to several Amiga movie players, such as MooVID ans SoftCinema. We also have a library for the coders among you who wish to write your own DivX player.

OS 3.9 updates
Some items didn't make it onto the OS 3.9 CD, because the CD had to be burned in time for the Cologne show and they weren't ready. Now we can let you have the Reaction version of GenesisPrefs and Locale files in a number of languages

ToolsDaemon
ToolsDaemon has long been a favourite way of adding extra menus to Workbench. It's always been described as an illegal system hack that was likely to break on a future OS update, and OS 3.9 made this come true.

Now we have an update to ToolsDaemon that makes it work with OS 3.9.
