G-Force is a real-time audio visualization plugin for audio players and can also operate as a stand-alone screensaver that accepts "line-in" audio. G-Force features fast anti-aliased effects, thousands of possible effect combinations, savable and scriptable effects, QuickTime services, and unparalleled expandability.
What's New?
Added asynchronous config and image preloading (eliminating "burps", formerly resulting from synchronous/blocking OS file calls). Added a couple dozen great new WaveShapes and FlowFields (thanks Ted, Roger B, TP, and Rovastar!). Improved FlowField computation load balancing (resulting in less erratic frame rates for low and medium tier systems). Made Mac OS package installer smarter about detecting if iTunes is running (or not). Made Windows installer smarter about dealing with non-C drive Windows installs. Made Windows installer more tolerant of sketchy WMP installs and added support for WMP 10. Added Windows installer support for MUSICMATCH 9. Added globals HIEGHT, WIDTH, X_EXTENTS, and Y_EXTENTS to FlowFields and WaveShapes (see "Globals" in the config programming reference). If an error occurs while reading or processing a FlowField, the error message now shows the FlowField file name. Scripts are now unaffected by internal clock rollovers (which occur about every nine hours), allowing, for example, a script to call itself in order to repeat infinitely (previously, all running scripts had to be terminated upon a clock rollover). Config (and pref) files no longer use commas to delimit items (whitespace now delimits key-value pairs). Added the commands CacheSync() and CacheAsync() (thus allowing file caching via script). On Mac OS X, configs with file names greater than the Mac OS Classic limit (31), are no longer truncated in the console. Added check for updates feature for Mac OS X and Windows (and be customized via the PREF_CHECK_FOR_UPDATES pref). Added commands that allow on-the-fly overlay text and images (commercial version only). Fixed bug where FlowFields would cease to run or change properly if G-Force was running longer than several hours. Added protection from a possible crash triggered when a third party plugin improperly uses iTunes' GrafPort while G-Force is running. By request, the two G-Force background/watermark sprites have been removed from G-Force Gold.
