MIDI sequencer: Source code of "Horny" released
The source code of the MIDI sequencer "Horny" which was developed to 2003 to 2006 now is available under a free license on GitHub. The developer Timo Kloss wrote: "This code is so bad, I had to give up working on it. It's here for nostalgic and historical reasons only." The names of variables and functions are in German.

Kloss himself is not going to develop the program further but thinks it might be possible to remove the keyfiles checks and to provide some minor bug fixes by third parties. Originally Horny was written with StormC and due to porting it to AmigaOS 4 then adapted to GCC. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Beta version: Port of Raid over Moscow
A beta version of a port of the 8-Bit classic Raid over Moscow has been released. In three different game sections you have to face Russian aggressors preventing a nuclear attack on the United States.


The Amiga port is developed by Erik 'Earok' Hogan, the graphics are provided by Adrian Cummings, the soundtrack by Simone Bernacchia. Raid over Moscow should run on each Amiga equipped with at least 1 MB RAM but has not tested on real hardware yet. All elements of the original 8-Bit game have been already implemented but the programmer expects minor bugs or NTSC incompatibilities.

A manual still has not been published, the players are supposed to use the manual of the C64 version.

RTG driver: P96 2.4.4 (update)
The graphic card driver P96 has been updated. This is a free update for all those customers who has purchased the driver since the takeover by Individual Computers. It fixes a bug "when clearing the screen, which showed for example with the program Pagestream when used on a true-colour screen."

Update: (02.01.2020, 13:45, cg)

In contrary with our original news item, obviously the update is not available for free for all customers: Several of our readers have reported that the purchase of a P96 licence entitles the user to get free updates for only 12 months. Thus, if you have purchased P96 right after the takeover by Individual Computers, you again have to pay for version 2.4.4. (snx) (Translation: dr)
