Video series "Taborized": Battle Squadron Enhanced + Tower 57 adapted to A1222+
Daniel 'Daytona675x' Müßener had already adapted some of his games to the Tabor board in the past (e.g. Tower 57). However, all of these games still lacked sound because there was no sound driver at the time. Since meanwhile the sound driver is available, he is working on these games one after the other and adapting the audio code for SPE. This has already been done for the games Battle Squadron Enhanced and Tower 57.
The respective executables will be made available free of charge.

Program for DeepL use: AmiTranslate 0.2
Marcus 'ALB42' Sackrow's programme AmiTranslate (video) serves as a link to the translation service DeepL and is available for AmigaOS, AmigaOS 4, AROS (x86, x64, ARM) and MorphOS.
In version 0.2 some bugs have been fixed: the scrollbars for the text edits now work and pdf documents do now care about returns or line wrap. Additionally, an user suggestion was implemented: a context menu for both edits to copy and paste text.
Besides an SSL-secured internet connection (OpenSSL3 under MorphOS resp. AmiSSL for the other systems) the program also needs the MUI class texteditor.mcc.
