A-EON Technology: Enhancer Software Core Release 2 / Delay of A1222
According to Trevor Dickinson in his latest blog entry, the production of the A1222 Plus continues to delay due to the "ongoing worldwide lack of integrated circuits and other electronic supply chain issues". As he explained: "One small micro-controller which costs $6.83 each in batches of 100+ is only available for delivery at the end of 2023. Although it can be purchased now from another trade supplier for the extortionate price of ~$420 each." ACube and A-EON are therefore still looking for alternative suppliers.

Porting Amiga applications to Linux: AxRuntime 41.4
Krzysztof 'deadwood' Śmiechowicz' "AxRuntime" is a runtime environment for Linux which emulates the AmigaOS-API and therefore enables porting Amiga applications on Linux and developing applications which can be compiled for AmigaOS/MorphOS/AROS as well as Linux (amiga-news.de reported). Under Windows it is possible to use it by the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), which has been generally available for Windows 10 and 11 in the Microsoft Store since the end of November (amiga-news.de reported). The new version is based on the recently released version 20221221-1 of the ABI v11 developer branch and introduces, among other things, the Zune prefs V0.2 and the editor V1.1 (YouTube video).

AROS x86_64: Update of ABI-v11 developer branch
The AROS developer Krzysztof 'deadwood' Śmiechowicz had given his stable branch of AROS for 64-bit Intel and AMD processors the code name 'ABIv11' to distinguish it from the in-progress ABIv1 version in the main AROS repository. It has now updated this to version "20221221-1". The new release includes improvements and fixes made since March 2022. Among improvements is the major work done on Scalos during summer to fix multiple compatibility, stability and 64-bit problems.

The emulator package Amiga Forever 10 (amiga-news.de reported) was updated on December 20 with version 10.0.10.0. By including WinUAE 4.10.0, the integration of a virtual modem was rounded off on the Amiga side, so that it can also be used with the programs NComm and Term.

According to George 'walkero' Sokianos in his latest Ko-Fi blog entry, he started working on porting a game called BreakHack some time ago and finally decided to release it. It is a Roguelike game developed by Linus Probert. The latter describes the game as "a casual roguelike intended to provide entertainment for 10-30 minutes when you are taking a break from anything else in your life.

Audio player: AmigaAMP 3.33 released
Thomas Wenzel wrote: Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! :)
Bug fixes:
- Fixed repeat track/all functionality.
Corrected error message for unsupported stream format.
Fixed wrong memory deallocation when closing the about requester.
Revised automatic runtime switching between AHI and MHI output.
New features:
- Added pulldown menu items for repeat track/all and shuffle.
Better handling of AHI modes with different limitations.
AHI has some peculiarities in that the maximum volume depends on the mode used (stereo++ or not) and the number of mixing channels. Until now, you always had to be careful not to turn it up too loud, because otherwise it would suddenly get quieter again, and with a bit of bad luck you wouldn't hear anything at all. The aim is that you don't have to worry about this any more because AmigaAMP determines the necessary limits itself. Hopefully it works for everyone. :)
