Emulation: CD32 emulation for Windows (update) The first CD32 emulator for Windows, the CD32 Games Install Kit, was just released on the Airsoft Softwair homepage. This emulator works in connection with the famous WinUAE. Exactly like in the Amiga version, patches are applied to every single game. This gives a very good compatibility. Even digital CD audio is already supported. However you will require a custom version of the WinUAE which can be downloaded from my web page. Currently the CD32 Games Install Kit for Windows is only available for owners of the The Best Of Airsoft Softwair Gold Edition CD-ROM (download it in the protected update area!). Update 08. July 2001: Andreas Falkenhahn wrote in the German comments on this message: I have had implemented some functions for CD audio handling in the custom version of WinUAE. Indeed those only can be utilized by my sub-system Install2001 which runs on the Amiga part, thus I don't know if the WinUAE team would like to have those functions in every official release. I will inquire it, anyway. But like already told, without Install2001, so without the Install Kit, those functions are just useless.... (mj) (Translation: wk) [News message: 07.

AmigaOS: AmigaSDL The cross platform handling of games and multimedia applications is often very difficult. There's a great number of libraries that are supposed to close this gap. Among them SDL (Simple Directmedia Layer) seems to come out as the probably most elegant and best supported project of this kind. Thanks to the latest work of long standing Amiga developer Gabriele Greco there's now an AmigaOS port of SDL available. In his article (title link) John Chandler wrote on Suite101.com why SDL may probably be the best solution in cross platform programming for the AmigaOS and delivers some links.

Webserver: Apache 1.3.20 binary for Morphos The Amiga webserver Apache (v1.3.20) is available as binary for MophOS and can be downloaded at SixK. This binary was not compiled with the PHP module but there's a version with PHP in the work. This MorphOS version is for use with the official Apache archive that can be found on amiga-apache.org. To be able to use Apache several more packages of the Geekgadgets project are needed. Please look at the hints on the download page of amiga-apache.org. (mj) (Translation: wk) [News message: 07.

Amiga Arena News Amiga Arena full version! In co-operation with Christian Steiner the Amiga Arena makes the release of "Sharks Multi Version 1.5 Final" possible! SHARKS! is a skill game playing underwater. Our brave diver is away to search the sea ground for treasures. The area in which he is is full of sharks, though ..., so: BE CAREFUL !!! Collect as many treasues as possible and be aware of the sharks! Because of too little feedback by the users the further development has ceased! Amiga Arena "File Cutter" code! Stefan Berge has made the code of File Cutter available to the Amiga Arena! File Cutter serves to split files. You can e.g. split a file of 8MB (animation, LHA archive) into several small files so that you can put this file with no problem shared over several disks for further transport. On another computer these files are put together to the original complete file again. Amiga Arena full version Beneath a Steel Sky: With permission by Revolution Software Ltd. (thanks to Tony W.) the readers CD of the Amiga Future 31 contains the original sales version of the presumably best action adventure for the Amiga until today. Very special thanks to: Jürgen B. who made the archive available to me. (mj) (Translation: wk) [News message: 07. Jul. 2001, 18:58] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version] |

Amiga users list updated Rene wrote: "The Amiga users list was again updated and is now available in version 11.00 on my homepage. The version change from 10.00 to 11.00 was made because I got erroneously an old version of the list when taking over the AUL. All entries that were made in the last Amiga users list by Stefan Martens are now contained in the new version, too. From the next version on I'll update the AUL, therefore I'll verify the entries and delete all non up-to-date entries without replacement! Everybody already listed should check his/her entry and tell should something have changed meanwhile." (cd) (Translation: wk) [News message: 07.

Fonts: new Fontutility ports / dictionaries wanted On my homepage (and soon on aminet, too) can two new ports of font utilities be found that will be of use for the DTP interested and the font freaks. "ttf2pt1" converts TrueType fonts into the Postscript format for use in Pagestream, FinalWriter, Drawstudio, etc. and bases on the latest source codes. "afm2pfm" converts between Postscript fontmetric files. Despite the archive's name it's also possible to convert from PFM files to AFM files. Both programs can be found in the "Font Utilties" area of my website, additionally there's a PowerPC version for WarpOS available of "ttf2pt1". Furthermore I'm looking for German language dictionary files of all kind (term definitions, thesaurus, foreign word dictionary, ...) for my new project. In contrary to the English there seems to be a real lack in the German speech area, at least regarding free, documented formats. If anybody owns such files or some Duden software out of the PC library series (or something similar) I'd be thankful if he/she would contact me via email. (cd) (Translation: wk) [News message: 07.

Universal-Filter V2.1 Update for PageStream 3.x/4.x A new version 2.1 of the PageStream universal filter was released. This free universal filter enables PageStream to load many graphic formats, BME or HHV. This new version fixes a v2.0 filter problem in loading pictures with colour palettes, which could crash PageStream or HHV. It is strongly suggested to install this update. Beside of the above fix some more small things were enhanced (e.g. new pnglib, lower stack requirement). Unfortunately there wasn't enough time to finish the support for the PhotoShop format. :-( (ps) (Translation: mj) [News message: 05.
