AmigaOS 4: X11 environment AmiCygnix 1.5
Edgar Schwan's AmiCygnix is an Unix environment for AmigaOS 4. It is not an emulation but all programs has been compiled for AmigaOS 4. AmiCygnix provides a directory and data structure similar to an Unix installation.

In version 1.5 many problems have been solved but there are also new features like a new windows manager and new display drivers. The documentation now is available as PDF file.

New in AmiCygnix-Base:
  • This release now includes a new Window Manager called "Dynamic Window Manager" (dwm), recommended for use with programs launched from the standalone scripts. This window manager maximizes the main window of the program and does not add frames to the windows. This avoids duplicate frames, as in a workbench display and the use of the window manager Openbox.
  • A total of seven new display drivers have been added to the package. All drivers that do not use Picasso96 require graphics.library V54!
  • If a workbench display is iconized, the name of the icon now indicates the program started in it, if it was started with a standalone script.
  • The X server did not support special keys like "Page Up" or "Home" found on a PC keyboard. Also the NumLock key was not supported. This has now been implemented (thanks to Stefan Juhas for his hint!).
  • Under certain circumstances, the X server could freeze the entire system when starting or exiting. This particularly occurred in programs that were started with a standalone script. All display drivers have been revised for this and the problems should be resolved.
  • Fixed some bugs in myX11Setup and myX11SetupLight.
  • For some parts of the program, the Italian translation has been updated or recreated.
  • The display drivers xpicasso96clonewb and xpicasso96wb were revised for better performance, especially on 32bit screens.
  • The "lxpanel" desktop panel could crash under certain circumstances. Has been fixed. Also thanks to Samir for the hint!
  • The documentation in the "Docs" directory is now predominantly in PDF format.
New in AmiCygnix-Tools:
  • The start scripts have been adapted to the new windows manager.
  • The documentation also now is available as PDF file.

AmigaOS 4: Spreadsheet ignitionOS4 1.00
Achim Pankalla wrote: Under the title link version 1.00 of the spreadsheet "ignitionOS4" is available on the Sourceforge website. For more than ten years ignition has been open source and this is the sixth version of the AmigaOS-4 port.

This version no longer is calleds "beta" although it is not completely bug-free and a Grim Reaper might happen. Despite this many functions have been added and about 100 bugs/problems have been removed.

By releasing this version a new user-interface and menu layout has been introduced providing a modern look and of course meeting suggestions of the users. For example there now is an export/import menu and the dialog and the procedure of loading and saving was simpliefied. Of course still the user can create his own user-interface. The new icons were added as well.

This version has focused on the ARexx and DB functions. Many bugs have been fixed and some new functions added. Many thanks to Helmut Haake for revising the manual which now can be opened on every menu item, dialog and GUI element by using the Help key. For using the ODS import/export you still have to separately install the ign-addon-ods.

Many thanks also to all beta testers, bug reportes, translators and supporters! You can get further information in the ignitionOS4 forum on os4welt.de - or you can write an e-mail, also for providing any feedback. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Another FPGA-based CPU card in developement
Mike Stirling is building a FPGA-based accelerator board which will use the open source 68k core TG68 as CPU. The latest prototypes still use a FPGA developer board (Terasic DE0 Nano) which is connected to the CPU socket of the Amiga. Using self made boards will follow later.

In contrast to the well-known Vampire, here it will be focused on maximum compatibility. Additional to the fast processor and Fast-RAM, the current prototypes also can access SD cards. First of all the board is being developed for the Amiga 500 which is followed by versions for other Amiga models. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Dungeon Crawler: Port of "Legacy" (2003) announced
Legacy is a classic Dungeon Crawler like Dungeon Master or Eye of the Beholder which was released in 2003 for different PDA platforms. Recently Szilárd 'BSzili' Biró has released a limited demo version of an Amiga port (video of the intro) but also pointed out that it is unlikely that a full version will be available due to the legal status.

Obviously a publisher called Inked Pixel Software has addressed this situation and has announced via Indie Retro News that it is going to commercially distribute the full Amiga version.

A date for the release has not been set. The game requires a harddrive, Kickstart 3.1 and an AGA-Amiga with 4 MB Fast-RAM or an ECS-Amiga with 68020 processor and 6 MB RAM. Additional to a screen solution of 320x240, also a solution of 640x480 is supported which is meant for graphics card. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Preview video: Doom clone for Amiga 500
KK/Altair is working on a Doom clone for an A500 equipped with 1 MB RAM which can ply real Doom-WAD files. In a video he demonstrates how he uses a Doom editor for creating a part of a level for his engine. Afterwards he tested it (from about 10:20) in an emulated Amiga 500.

The programmer has pointed out that his port has required some fundamental improvements which could cause cause problems, e.g. detecting possible collisions. Therefore levels have to be adapted to his engine and tested. (cg) (Translation: dr)

A1222: Production of "Early Adopter Edition" maybe starts in the third quarter
In the latest entry on his blog, Trevor Dickinson has focused on the negative aspects of the coronavirus outbreak with respect to A-EON and Amigakit: "Matthew Leaman informed me that, due to factory shutdowns, several of his new classic Amiga hardware products have not been shipped or are now greatly behind schedule. A-EON Technology's A1222 early Adopter development and release schedule has similarly been affected and Matthew thinks the delays could push production into the third quarter of this year."

MorphOS 3.13: Hotfix for ixemul.library
The release of MorphOS 3.13 about two weeks ago detected a bug ixemul.library: By default a wrong FPU rounding mode was used. As the developers wrote, "the bug can manifest itself in various ways, one example is "tinny" audio output in various games" like the demo version of Wings Remastered.

The hotfix for the ixemul.library can be downloaded under the title link. After unarchiving it, simply copy it to the WBStartup drawer. If in future a bug fixed version of the ixemul.library will be released the hotfix would not affect it. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Encryption: AmiSSL 4.4 (AmigaOS 3/4)
The AmiSSL library has been updated and now is compatible to the latest OpenSSL version 1.1.1d. Additionally the root certificates has been updated and diverse bug fixes and optimizations provided. The developer ask for support for porting AmiSSL to MorphOS and AROS - programmers are needed for those platforms. That's the reason AmiSSL currently is only available for AmigaOS.

Changes:
  • Updated OpenSSL backend to full compatibility to latest OpenSSL 1.1.1d (10.09.2019) version.
  • Applications compiled with the AmiSSL 4.3 SDK will need to be recompiled to use this release (if the AmiSSL 4.0-4.2 SDK was used, those applications do not need recompiling and will automatically use AmiSSL 4.4).
  • Updated root certificates to latest Mozilla-based bundle provided by https://curl.haxx.se/ca/
  • Now includes separate 68020-40 and 68060 optimised versions.
  • Fixed poor 64-bit integer math performance (including erratic mouse movement) specific to 68060 processors, caused by software emulation of instructions not present on 68060 processors.
  • Added 68060 optimised 64-bit multiplication routine from vbcc with permission by Frank Wille.
  • Improved BN performance for 68060 (disabled m68k asm replacement as it's slower due to the above).
  • Improved elliptic curve performance for all m68k processors.
  • Fixed the OS3 target from crashing on systems with a 68020/030, but without an FPU (#37).
  • Disabled Poly1305 FPU algorithm on Tabor A1222 (#38).
  • Fixed TLS 1.3 cipher lookup failures on OS4, caused by compiler bug (#35).
  • OpenSSL.doc not updated for the last 14 years, but now automatically updated for each new release.
  • Fixed crashing OpenSSL command on OS3 (#28).
  • Fixed OpenSSL command not making path to openssl.cnf correctly (#34).
  • Fixed OpenSSL command -out parameter (#33).
  • OpenSSL s_server command can now be interrupted with Ctrl-C.
  • Install script fixes for MorphOS (#41).
  • Fixed include files for vbcc/m68k compilation (#20).
  • Minor improvements/fixes.

New orders in legal dispute between Cloanto and Hyperion
In the last two trials between (among others) Cloanto and Hyperion, which both are tried by the same judge, new orders have been given. Die the action for infringement of trade mark rights C-A Acquisition Corp and Cloanto against Hyperion, in which both plaintiffs could obtain a default judgement due to Hyperion's inactivity, is suspended until a previous dispute has been solved.

In the previous dispute, between Amino, Itec, Amiga Inc. and Cloanto on the one hand and Hyperion on ther other hand, Cloanto obviously has requested the court - the relevant document is not publicly available - for an alternative dispute resolution. But the judge denied: "The Court does not believe that such is required at this point, as the parties have recently participated in settlement discussions (we reported) and can continue to do so voluntarily."

AmigaOS-4-Cross compiler: GCC 8.3.0 for MacOS X
Costel 'Cyborg' Mincea has compiled GCC 8.3.0 as AmigaOS-4-Cross compiler for MacOS. After extracting the archive you have to edit the PATH so Mac OS will find binary file in /usr/local/amiga/bin. The SDK-53.30 includes have to be copied to /usr/local/amiga/ppc-amigaos/SDK. Mincea did successfully a short test but a proper practical test is still pending.

Linking C++ code is a little bit special due to the beta status of the used compiler from the adtools project.

Workbench distribution: AmiKit XE 11.2 (gaming update)
Press release: Today's update brings a number of legendary games to your AmiKit! One of them is premiering on Amiga, actually. It's an action role-playing hack and slash game called Diablo (shareware). Yes, that's right! And you can play it in a window on your Workbench too!

The same with Dune II - you can play it in a window thanks to OpenDUNE port which enhances the original version as well (note that you need the original 1.07eu game files). We've also included a DOS emulator called DOSBox with several shareware games pre-installed like Prince of Persia 1 & 2, Wolfenstein3D and SuperMario. Nice, right? If you have kids, they will love Elfie the Unicorn! We've also included a special easy peasy version for them :-)

The update also contains a handful of important software updates and fixes. Enjoy! The complete changelog. (snx)

Settlement discussions between Cloanto and Hyperion aborted
As amiga-news.de has been told by several sources, the settlement discussions between Cloanto and Hyperion regarding a settlement agreement have been aborted without tangible results last week. As far as we know, the next step to avoid a lengthy and costly trial would be mediation involving a neutral mediator - but we don't know if both parties are actually working towards that option right now.

AmigaOS 4: SSHTerm 1.2
Fredrik 'salass00' Wikstrom has released version 1.2 of an Amiga spezific SSH solution called SSHTerm. It requires AmiSSL 4.3.

Changes in version 1.2:
  • Specifying the KEYFILE argument now implies that public key authentication should be used instead of any other method (same as in ssh2-handler).
  • Now uses an offscreen buffer for text rendering which should speed up anti-aliased text rendering on most platforms.
  • Increased read and write buffers in main loop from 256 to 1024 bytes.
