New York Post illustrates Citibank accounting error with Amiga 2000
The New York Post illustrated the fact that Citibank recently made a false entry of 81 trillion US dollars with the photo of an Amiga 2000 with a 1084S monitor - presumably not coincidentally alluding to inadequate control software.
User comments on Reddit at the title link suggest therefore that the bank should switch to more modern computer equipment - such as a CD³². (snx)

A600GS: Software update 46.1.1015
A further software update has been released for AmigaKit's A600GS emulator platform, which is available for download to registered AmiSphere customers and includes the following changes:
A600GS
- Add Italian language translation thanks to Samir Hawamdeh
- Add test for RDB based HDFs, when RDB found omit altered options to allow correct handling by AmiBerry
- Suppress editing of DEVICE VOLUME and BOOTPRI for RDB based HDFs as these are all in the control of the RDB
- Add option to limit Z3 memory space used to 1Gb, this should allow RTG and Z3 memory to be used on OS variants that inadvertently impose this limit.
YAM
YAM v2.10 has been rebuilt with important bug fixes implemented. A new YAM support page has been added to the Wiki for A600GS / A1200NG users.
- Regenerate the flex generated C files from HTML2Mail.l and ParseMail.l with flex version 4.6 (run on the A600gs itself) as the OS4 version used for cross compiling was just slightly too old and caused occasional crashes.
- Fix bug in RecipientString GoActive method, custom MUI class that could set the same input handler on the window more than once and cause lock-ups due to queueing a node twice.
- Fix equivalent issue in GoInactive method
The last two fix an issue with the Forward window locking up and also the Edit draft window in some circumstances
AmiBerry
Minor refactor of Z3mem options parsing to allow setting up of multiple Z3 memory "cards" , the previous parser would overwrite the same memory bank with the subsequant options causing some quirky side effects! The end result of this is to allow combinations of memory like 512 + 256 (for 768 total.) (cg)

Real-time strategy: First early demo version of "King Arthur's Campaign"
After its train simulator "Trans-Pennine Express" (amiga-news.de reported), 'lifeschool' has started a new project: a real-time strategy game with some "Defender of the Crown" influences. The playing field in "King Arthur's Campaign" can be seen from a bird's eye view, the units are freely movable. The game is set in Roman times.
Basically, the author is interested in the use of arrays in this game: by copying all X and Y coordinates of all units into an array each turn, he wants to be able to quickly check whether units have met. He has now released a first early demo version 0.3 as a hard disc image. (dr)

8-/16-Bit emulator for macOS: Clock Signal v2025-02-26
Thomas Harte's Clock Signal is an emulator for various 8- and 16-bit platforms aiming to be invisible to the user. The idea is to simply start the source medium without configuring the emulator oneself. Clock Signal is available for Mac OS and Unix-compatible systems. Amiga emulation is included as well. Changes:
- adds nascent Commodore 16/Plus 4 emulation, a work-in-progress;
- fixes a potential crash at startup for the MSX 2;
- reduces potential memory leaks for any machine that uses disks;
- improves the Mac UI with: a modern icon, improved menu wording and closer-to-QuickTime behaviour for showing the in-window machine controls; and
- experimentally, primarily for the ZX Spectrum and on macOS only, attempts automatically to relaunch media that has been changed by an external program (e.g. if you reassemble software you are developing).

Frode Solheim is continuing to develop FS-UAE
The Amiga emulator FS-UAE and its associated launcher is a platform-independent version of UAE for Windows, Mac OS X and numerous Linux and BSD variants. The last version of FS-UAE & Launcher, version 3.1.66, was released on 3 January 2022. Now Frode Solheim, the main developer of FS-UAE, has posted a detailed update posted on the English Amiga Board. He admits that he has been overworking himself over the last few years, but assures everyone that he is healthy and will not simply give up on the project without ensuring an orderly handover.
Recently, he has taken the first steps to modernise FS-UAE and OpenRetro:
- Distro-specific builds for current distributions have been created.
- The website fs-uae.net has been migrated to a new host server and the underlying software has been updated.
An upgrade for openretro.org is still pending, whereby old Python 2 code has to be ported to Python 3. He also plans to support newer WHDLoad versions and take a look at the current development of WinUAE 6 to integrate possible improvements into FS-UAE. Despite challenges, he remains motivated and is open to further collaborators, even though the organisational effort for community-driven development should not be underestimated. (nba)

Classic remake "X-Out: Resurfaced" has been published
The Amiga classic X-Out has been relaunched as announced under the name "X-Out: Resurfaced". The remake of the horizontally scrolling shoot ‘em up was published on 20 February 2025 for Xbox, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch and PC. In addition to the digital version, there are also physical special editions for PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch, which are available exclusively from the developer ININ Games. The gaudy remake offers revised graphics, a remixed soundtrack by Chris Hülsbeck and additional features such as a two-player co-op mode.
The original X-Out game was released by Rainbow Arts in 1990 for the Amiga. It is considered one of the most outstanding horizontally scrolling shoot ‘em ups of its time. Particularly ground-breaking was the shop system, which allowed players to put together their own individually equipped submarine with different weapons and drones before each level. The dark underwater atmosphere, the impressive pixel graphics and the captivating soundtrack by Chris Huelsbeck made X-Out an unforgettable classic of the Amiga era. (nba)
