MorphOS: System patch "Zapper"
"Zapper" modifies the ZipWindow() function of the intuition.library, i.e. the behaviour of the "Zoom" gadget at the top right border of a window. Instead of switching between two different window sizes, it resizes the window to full screen by click now. If the title bar is enabled that will be kept free.

Zapper also may be used in "Smart Resizing" mode which resizes windows only on the not already used screen area and does not hide other windows.

Amiforce/Abakus-Design: Seasonig greetings and Snowman (Classic)
With Snowman (Classic) a tiny Christmas game is available at Abakus-Design. Unfortunately an entire new game was due lack of time not possible and the same reason lead to only minor changes to the game:

The game is running in 800x600 with any colour depth. Also on classic Amigas it should run without problems. Some new figures were pixeled which are now on wood plates. Thus, the game comes closer to the C64 original version. The archive is about 10 MB in size.

Last but not least Telemar Rosenberger and Franz Schlick wish a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2005. (cg) (Translation: ub)

Robin Hood coming for MorphOS
"Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood", originally developed by Spellbound Entertainment for the PC, will soon continue his adventures on the Pegasos. The MorphOS version of Robin Hood has just reached "first playable" on the Pegasos. A demo version will be released soon and the game is expected to start shipping in QI/2005 for MorphOS.

About "Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood":

Do not only take on the role of the hero Robin Hood, but also the roles of his faithful vassals and take them to the battle field against the nasty Prince John Lackland. In doing so you are able to enjoy the fabulous English landscape of 1190 as well as the giant castles and funny characters. The thrilling story is introduced by an award-winning introduction and transfers you directly into the hero\s body with the first mission, in which you have to set the captive comrades free. Take up the battle against the oppressors and free the farmers from the Prince\s reign! Be smart, be fast! Be Robin Hood!

Features:
  • More than 30 non-linear missions in which, for instance, you have to save Little John and Brother Tuck and prevent a wedding between Marianne and the revolting Guy of Gisbourne or attack the taxation collectors of the Sheriff of Nottingham
  • Visit five giant castles on different ways, at day and night times, and at different weather conditions
  • Play with up to nine integrated characters being outstanding due to their specific abilities and qualities
  • Due to an innovative fighting system you are able to control the hero\s sword in battles by mouse
  • Decide yourself which tactic appears to be the right one for you: reach the goal by creeping around the guards or fight bravely using sword and bow
System requirements:
  • Pegasos I/II at 600 MHz or better
  • 128 MB RAM
  • Radeon 7000 or better
  • MorphOS 1.4.x

Non-Linear Video Editing System for MorphOS
The archive "MSchnitt-Mos.lha" contains four programs that together comprise a non-linear video editing system. It's written fully in ARexx and requires the following programs be installed:
  • ARexx
  • MPlayer (>1.0)
  • Mencoder
  • ogmtools-1.4.1-morphos (ogmmerge)
  • mkvtoolnix-0.9.1-morphos (mkvmerge)
  • fxPAINT (2.0+)
Features:
  • Video edit
  • Add new sound
  • Convert video formats
  • Sound processing
  • Sound edit
  • Merging of video clips to create a larger
  • Video titling
  • FX-effects
  • Merging of sound clips to create a larger
  • Encoding of single frames
  • Decoding of single frames
  • Support of multitrack videos in Ogg Mediastream or Matroska Media-Vision
The following link points to a demo video illustrating features of the MSchnitt package: http://pegasossoft.de/Movie.avi (3 MB)

A side effect of MSchnitt is the manipulation of multitrack videos. These are videos with more than one video or audio track. Here's a demo clip: http://pegasossoft.de/Movie_kopergeschuetzt.mkv (3 MB).

These clips can only be played with the newest MPlayer version, because they make use of the Matroska format. Whoever has no knowledge of MPlayer will only see the copy-protected video, and not the other stuff.

Unfortunately I haven't written any instructions, because that too would be a bit much for me. But whoever seriously wants to use the package can send me an e-mail and I'll write back right away.
