`26.Jan.2025`	Windows: WavConvert4Amiga 1.3 (update) The Windows program WavConvert4Amiga is used to optimize audio files in Wave format for use on the Amiga or with tracker music programs. The range of functions includes any sample rate when converting to 8-bit mono format, support for both PAL and NTSC frequencies and note conversion from C-1 to B-3 for ProTracker. Update: (27.01.2025, 07:00, dr) Meanwhile version 1.3 is already available, which adds the Amiga ST-xx sample format: it is now possible to load 8svx and original Amiga St-xx sample formats directly into wavconvert.

`19.Jan.2025`	Do it yourself: CompactFlash adapter AmigaCF for Amiga 600 and 1200 The CompactFlash adapter AmigaCF for the Amiga 600 and 1200 is connected to the internal IDE port not by cable like other variants, but is plugged directly into it instead. In addition, noises are made during access, as a substitute for those made when accessing a real 2.5" hard disk inside the computer. The AmigaCF is intended for use directly on the mainboard - as it is unbuffered, it is not suitable for use on the IDE port of some turbo boards, i.e. those which require a buffered adapter instead.

`19.Jan.2025` Steffen Haeuser at A1K.org (ANF)	Financing of a Warp3D driver for the PiStorm32 (PI4/CM4) on IndieGoGo Steffen Haeuser writes at A1K.org (translated): "Warp3D for PiStorm! Until now, 3D games on Amiga computers with PiStorm were limited to software-only rendering solutions, even though a Pi4/CM4 has a powerful 3D chip (Videocore VI). The aim of this project is to change this. Developer Dennis Boon has offered to create a Warp3D.library for PiStorm systems with Pi4 and Pi CM4 for a fee. With 3D hardware acceleration, you get higher resolutions, faster FPS and more impressive visuals for 3D gaming on PiStorm-equipped Amiga systems. Additionally, it enables porting of games that require 3D hardware acceleration or games that would be too slow in software-only rendering on a PiStorm Amiga." (snx) [News message: 19.

`19.Jan.2025` Mastodon (ANF)	Game: Tank in a Dungeon 1.1 (update) In "Tank in a Dungeon" you have to drive a tank through a labyrinth exposed by an earthquake in order to free researchers held captive by alien robots. An Amiga with at least 1.5 MB RAM and Workbench 2.0 is required, an Amiga 1200 is recommended. Update: (19.01.2025, 21:27, dr) Version 1.1 is now available, which fixes a bug (flickering numbers in the score and player ammo have been removed) and also assigns the player a rank based on accuracy after completing all missions.
