Text adventure: Updates for Hibernated 1 (Director's Cut)
In mid-June 2021 we reported about the remake of the text adventure Hibernated 1 (Director's Cut), which was released for numerous platforms. In the meantime, several updates have been released, which also affect the Amiga version: Release 8 mainly corrected spelling errors, while Release 9 helped to improve the overall performance of the Amiga version, since it uses a new "Z-Machine Version 5"-enabled interpreter. The presumably last update 12, released three weeks ago, "fixes an issue with the PunyInform library that caused a few of the interpreters to throw warnings when playing, particuarly the Amiga and Atari ST version of the game."

RaSCSI: SCSI adapter for Raspberry Pi
In 2015, we reported about SCSI2SD, a SCSI adapter that allows SD cards to be used as SCSI hard drives. The firmware is still being maintained and the adapter is also still available, but it costs just under 90 Euros converted. As Gotek-Retro reports, there is also a solution for Raspberry Pi users: RaSCSI is a virtual SCSI device emulator that can emulate multiple SCSI devices at once. Likewise, there is a control interface to attach/detach drives on the fly, as well as insert and eject removable media. It works with a variety of Amiga models. The adapter is available for about 50 Euro for example at SamplerSpa or AmigaKit. (dr)

Amiga disks on PC: DrawBridge 2.8.6
Robert Smith's project "DrawBridge" (Disk Reader and Writer Bridge) uses like the similar ADF Drive a microcontroller - in this case an Arduino board - to read and write Amiga floppies with a connected standard PC floppy drive. By means of the plugin FloppyBridge, WinUAE is also officially supported since version 4.9.0. The changes of the current version: more ... (dr)

ACube Systems: Sam460LE boards announced / Pre-order campaign
Press release: After many months, we are so happy to announce we are very close to a production start for a new batch of Sam460 boards. Well, these will not be Sam460 but Sam460LE, i.e. Limited Edition.

Due to the pandemic time and huge delays in delivering hardware components, we had to spend a lot more time than planned to find all components for a production run. Finally, we reached a point where we need your help to start this production.

We are now taking pre-orders for these Sam460LE boards. You can find a pre-order product right now in our online shop.

All Sam460LE bundles are made of:
  • Sam460LE board running up to 1.1 Ghz
  • Micro-ATX form factor with enough space for double slot graphic cards ;-)
  • MicroSD Slot at the rear of the board, so it can operated from the back.
  • 1 backplate
  • AmigaOS 4.1 FE
  • final price is 735 Euros VAT excluded (european countries should add 22% VAT).
Pre-orders will be processed as follows:
  • you can pay now 240 Euros (VAT excluded, see above), for a Sam460 package
  • we'll announce on all social media when the production starts
  • we'll also announce when the production has been completed
  • you will be asked one by one, to complete your payment (basically, the total cost minus what you paid as the pre-order)
  • first payment, first served. We'll ship in the same order we receive the remaining payments.
  • in case you decide to ask for a refund, we'll send your money back without condition.
Note: people that will purchase outside the scope of this pre-order offer will have to pay a final price of 785 Euros for the same product.

We are happy to work with you on this effort to bring more Sam460 boards on the market and we hope you will join us in this project! (dr)
