Plane9 v2.0 has been released

[Xetick]

Plane9 is a scene based winamp plugin that has just reached v2.0 status.

The main new features are
* Remade configuration window
* Transition scenes
* Simple AA using FXAA
* Bloom

You can get the new version at http://www.plane9.com
There is also a demo video that shows what it can do http://youtu.be/XXMQEaVU7Qw

Posted here since the new winamp.com page doesn't show any plugins yet.

Some of the 260 scenes

cool. do the vis match the music playing? (they seem to in the vid)

also, it works with what ver and above?

At first I couldn't make it work on last Winamp version, it said something that a file was missing, but I closed winamp a couple of times, and the same with the screensaver and it finally worked, like a charm!

Most vis are quite amazing, it´s a wonderful job you did here!

Yes, all except 5 or so react to the music in some way.

Not sure about the minimum version but the winamp vis plugin interface hasn't changed in long time. Any version released in the last 5 years or so shouldn't be a problem.

Nice to see you are still making stuff Joakim. Keep it up. I'll check it out soon.

If there's space for recommendations I would like to suggest a couple of things:
- Make the config window remember position and size (in a 20+ monitor having it always maximized it's a bit of a pain)
- Add ability to delete unwanted presets (or tell me how to do it)

Other than that, it's quite a good app!

Thanks, Same to you too. It's not many of us visualizer creators left as you have stated in some other thread so we need to keep on working on our projects.

Suggestions are always welcome.
1. It's a good point and something that should clearly be added
2. There is currently no way to do this in a user friendly way. I have added it to plane9.uservoice.com so I can keep track of any interest in that feature. If you really want to you can delete them from the c:\program files\Plane9 directory now but they would show up again if you reinstall it.

Hi Xetick, I still can't get to show the config window within Winamp, is there any known bug about it? (last Winamp, Win7 64bits).

It throws an error message ("Windows can't find Plane9.Config.exe....", but in spanish) and closes the Vis window. Winamp keeps playing fine.

This is indeed a know bug that I haven't been able to track down yet. You can reach the exact same window by going to the start menu and selecting the Plane9 Configuration. The menu option in winamp only functions as a shortcut.
