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)

AmigaOS 4: The network printer tool Airprint
After Arild 'mcleppa' Aarbakk had already written a scanner software for AmigaOS 4 with AirScan, he has also been working on a printer tool for AmigaOS 4 based on the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) since the end of 2023. At the end of 2010, Apple developed AirPrint, an extension of IPP, which has become standard on many current printers.
The Internet Printing Protocol provides printing services via a network and includes all the necessary mechanisms such as authentication, access authorisations, encryption, etc. This enables printing without a separate printer driver. In principle, printing is therefore possible without a separate printer driver.
I was able to test the first, early versions, which worked right from the start with my Canon G6000. For the first time since I proudly ran my Canon BJC-4200 with the "legendary" CanonDisk printer driver in the 90s, I was able to print from my Amiga, an AmigaOne X5000.
Initially, the range of functions was still somewhat limited, but gradually more options such as trays, colour, duplex and paper type were added.
SSL support was also added with the last update. The installation process of the tool has now been simplified so that the installer not only copies the necessary files, but also opens the settings window during installation:
The Airprint utility programme is located in the Sys:Prefs/Airprint directory after installation. After starting, a printer is searched for using the "+"...
...and in my case successfully found and added:
For me personally, Arild's very useful application is another important building block for a "complete" AmigaOS 4, but also an example of how you can use AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS together on the AmigaOne X5000 and thus achieve synergies. The DHL shipping label for the parcel was purchased under MorphOS with the Wayfarer web browser and the PDF file was saved on a shared drive, from where I was able to print the label with Airprint. Now that's Amiga fun:
In the Airprint utility itself, PDF, JPEG, text and postscript files can be loaded, converted and then sent to the printer. In addition, the programme should support printing from most Amiga applications, such as Notepad, AmiPDF, AmiGS, Odyssee, IBrowse (please refer to the documentation on activating fonts for printing) or Multiview. For this purpose Airprint communicates with the Amiga printer.device, for which DEVS:Printers/Airprint is required. The data is converted into RGB format. They are then sent to DEVS:airprint.device, which then communicates with the Airprint utility.
The source code of Arild's airprint driver is based on the source code of the HP DeskJet CMYK sample driver, while the airprint.device is based on Chris Young's ipp.device (GitHub link). The developer provided many useful hints on how the devices work together, enabling Arild to develop it further.
The paper size is currently limited to A4 and US Letter. Likewise, the resolution is currently only 150 DPI, converted into pixels this corresponds to 1240 x 1754. In practice, as Arild explains to us, this means that the resolution remains the same when a larger image is sent to the printer, so that you do not yet benefit from higher resolutions. This will change in the future.
The checkbox for the alignment is currently inactive. The image is always aligned so that it fits the paper format selected by the user. This will also be changed later.
Airprint always uses the paper installed in the printer. The selection of the "from to" range works - in future it should be possible to select each page to be printed, not just a range. The "Ink levels" tab shows the ink level of the printer:
As the tool is still in the beta phase, the programme versions are currently only available in the corresponding topic on the Amigans website. The current version is 0.36.
