The Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL) multimedia library is now available for AmigaOS 4 in versions 2.32.8 and 3.2.18.

SDL 3, which was introduced in January of this year as version 3.2, offers an extended programming interface (for the GPU, system dialogs, the file system and webcams, among others) and an extensively revised audio interface compared to its predecessor. (snx)

    • VHD support for dynamic HDFs
  • Amiga: added ECS Denise emulation (A500+/A600)

  • APP can be used fully or partially portable

Event: futuRETRO 2025 in Augsburg (Germany, 2./3. August)
This year's futuRETRO will take place on 2 and 3 August at the Technical University of Augsburg and aims to bring together people who are interested in the creative use of historical computers and calculating machines. The Faculty of Computer Science at the Technical University of Augsburg invites you to attend lectures, workshops, exchanges, discussions and to experience historical hardware and software.

Among others, Richard Löwenstein will give a talk on his reshoot Reshoot Proxima 3 at 10:30 a.m. on 2 August: "Five reasons why you should hate retro game development". Stefan Höltgen's talk at 2:30 p.m. is likely to be just as interesting: "Computing in museums? Exhibition concept for Commodore home computers".

Amiga hardware on display will include an Amiga 3000 and 4000, as well as Michael Spindler's Akiko32, his Amiga in mini ITX format (amiga-news.de reported). (dr)

Graphic Designer 0.1e (pre-alpha demo)
Graphic Designer is neither a painting program nor a desktop publishing or presentation application, but uses individual approaches from these by enabling the design of images by combining elements in currently up to twelve layers, which can then be saved as an IFF image file (or updatable project).

These permanently freely placeable elements can be images, brushes, text or image overlays and brush stamps. However, all image elements must already use the same palette; an automatic adjustment is not planned. (snx)

IFFChunkTool
IFFChunkTool is a command line tool for editing IFF files in relation to individual data segments, be it images, catalog files or 8SVX audio files. Thus for example samples can be extracted from the latter or the author can be replaced in catalog files or the palette of an image can be replaced. It is primarily intended for automated processing.

Supported are files in IFF FORM format only, the program requires AmigaOS 3.x. (snx)
