Board game: Kings of Israel 0.67
With permission of the right holder Funhill Games, the Finnish programmer 'Bugala' has released an update of his Amiga version of the board game Kings of Israel which is still in development (video of an earlier version from April of the last year).

The free game which still has not been finished is available for all Amiga systems in Pascal Papara's indieGO!-Appstore. Under AmigaOS 3.x the Hollywood game requires about 100 MB RAM and a graphic board. Under AmigaOS 4 the game hast to be launched in window mode. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Preview video: Amikit X ("A.L.I.C.E") launches Linux applications
A preview video shows the forthcoming version X of the emulator distribution Amikit, which is suppposed to be used in A-EONs announced Laptop A.L.I.C.E. ("A Laptop Incorporating A Classic Experience"). One of the important new features of Amikit will be launching Linux applications out of the emulated AmigaOS 3 - the video demonstrates this using the example of Firefox and the video player VLC.

In the video in each case one Linux application is launched, used and quitted without changing to AmigaOS or to another Linux application in the meantime. This demonstrates one of the substantial problems such a emulation have: For example the windows of Firefox or VLC would vanish behind the Amiga emulation running in full screen mode if you click on the Workbench and you can only change back to the Linux program by using the keyboard shortcut ALT-TAB.

File manager: Tasko (update)
"Tasko" written by Andreas G. Szabo offers any number of directory windows you like. Between them, you can copy files with drag&drop - for each new directory window, just start Tasko once again. The current release is called a "release candidate", which probably includes bugs. So far you cannot delete empty directories.

Tasko


Tasko requires AmigaOS  3.0 or higher. The author recommends at least AmigaOS 3.5. The screennotify.library is supported, that means if the Workbench is supposed to be closed or opened, Tasko immediately responds.

Download: Tasko_v1.0rc6.zip (176 KB)

Update: (03.03.2016, 06:00, cg)

Meanwhile the sixth "release candidate" is available. According to Andreas G. Szabo "now the files list is only refreshed when the dir reading is ready. However you can turn back on the live-refresh in the menu settings. I also changed the live-refresh method and it perhaps now performs better." Additional changes:
  • Only one lister is read/refreshed at a time.
  • Initial bookmarks feature added, drag dirs or volumes into the bookmarks list (turn it on in the settings menu).
