Short: The ultimate bootpic utility! (v4.00) Author: gcal@matinf.pcz.czest.pl (Grzegorz Calkowski) Uploader: gcal matinf pcz czest pl Type: util/boot Architecture: m68k-amigaos Version 4.00 Requires: Kickstart 3.0 or higher New release of the well-known bootpic program. The 4.00 version introduces many new features. Just take a look what the new SysPic can. SysPic 4.00 * - a star feature :-) o is small & VERY fast! (picture decompression routines written in optimized assembly) o shows IFF-ILBM pictures of any size and resolution, supports AGA modes (also HAM8) * has a flexible script-like language which allows you to display configurable text with hard/soft info, also with typewritter and shadow effects * can display a realtime digital clock on the displayed picture * can fade-in picture and fade-out it to Workbench (with selectable rate) - this works in asynchronous manner (i.e no delays) - mouse pointer is also faded * can play IFF-8SVX samples or Protracker modules with volume slide synchronized to fade-out o centers picture both horizontally & *vertically* o centers the mouse pointer when exits * has a very powerful random selector - an option assures that a picture won't show twice until all pictures are shown o forces Workbench to open behind the displayed picture so it can be closed after whole Workbench initialization, also works with the Directory Opus 5, the Workbench replacement o has no problems with MCP 'PubModes' feature * is iprefs-jump proof - sets overscan prefs before IPrefs will do it! o picture can be displayed in a desired mode or just promoted to specific monitor o optionally blanks the pointer sprite so you won't see it when the Workbench screen opens (it would look annoying) * picture is automatically closed when something goes wrong with booting - when an requester pops up on Workbench or so o detaches from shell in an intelligent way (i.e after loading the picture) * DOES NOT fragment the memory!!! o has been thoroughly tested by a team of betatesters o will be updated and supported in future * comes from Poland :))
