Sowjet speech encryption machine for telephone and radio
Right before the summer break a software premiere: the simulation of the Sowjet speech encryption machine "Elbrus". This is a military encryption device for telephone and radio that had been used at the USSR army and the NVA of the GDR. The signal is analogue encoded using a digital code i.e. you get an encrypted audio signal that can be broadcasted directly (without modem) analogue via telephone or radio. With the program you can en-/decode own audio files (or an audio stream of the AHI device). The program should be unique in the Web and is for now exclusively available for the Amiga (68k and PPC). A detailed description and a sound example can be found following the title link.

VIVA-Text: Amigas classical games on Gameboy Advance
About ten years ago the successful story of "Pinball Fantasies" started on the Amiga. Now the flipper simulation is supposed to capture the Gameboy Advance. There are eight different tables to chose which have been originally taken from the games "Pinball Fantasies" and "Pinball Dreams". Diverse ramps, traps and hills are supposed to make a new highscore more difficult.

Additionally you can read the interview with Darius Brewka and the question&answers of AmiStart.

Pegasos or do you think MorphOS would be the right way?' are online and can be viewed in the vote-area. 426 users participated in it. (Translation: dr)

BruZard: The end
BruZard wrote:
Because of professional reasons I give up all activities on the Amiga. This year I will still manage the AMIGAplus forum but I have been already looking for an user who will do it afterwards. Furthermore the projects "AmiBlitz" and "Stahl2003" are involved. The last mentioned one was a game project for AmigaPPC but it will be published only on Windows PCs because of the negative Amiga market.
Thank you for having 12 years fun with the Amiga and I wish all Amiga users a good prospect in which I cannot believe no more. I regret the farewell but I do not want to waste my time with an antiquated system which has no future. Cya Folks, may the Force be with you!

Amiforce: Amiblitz and Developer Support
Amiforce is immediately offering developer support for Amiblitz programmers. If you have written something in Amiblitz, you can make a connection with Cj-Stroker. If it is shareware, he can create an online registration form, and introduce the program.
The goal is to create a platform that both builds the excitement and raises the motivation. Amiga programmers have become a scarce commodity. There must be more new ones and the existing ones must be kept.
If you have your own homepage, Cj-Stroker can help you to market your program on Amiforce. That goes for everybody.
Steffen Nitz provided the first ones. His programs SN-Münzarchiv and SN-Markenarchiv may now be ordered, and may be directly registered online.
The entirety of all this is yet to be attained over the startpage. Before long the Amiblitz section will be newly displayed and correspondingly a new headline will be entered.

Please be aware that the catalog data has not been brought up to date, and may also be that you'll bump into text that hasn't been translated. But that that doesn't affect the fact that everything works. Whoever cares to do so may go over the German catalog and work with the built-in English strings. New catalog data is the next goal.

CD32/CDTV-Emulator for Windows: Akiko Version 1.6
Akiko 1.6, the CD32 & CDTV emulator for Windows was just released on the
Airsoft Softwair homepage (title link). This version can run more games
and the compatibility was increased. Additionally this version contains
now a cover archive with more than 160 covers for CD32 and CDTV games
(of course they've been prepared to be displayed in the Akiko GUI).
Therefore there are now two different versions of Akiko for download:
One version that contains all the covers (8 MB) and one version
that comes without covers (1.5 MB). Akiko 1.6 can now be downloaded
from the Airsoft Softwair web page.
Please have also a look into the documentation because the author need
to buy some CD32 games and he still need some CDTV games for Akiko. (ps)
