/Ponk/Ponk <NAME>.game

• Fix some issues with combining memories in raw output format into a single file.
• Fix problem with Fedora installation in that installed libraries very severely stripped down and not working properly.
• 65816: In some situations functions calls having multiple parameters with calculations that required the same register resources could cause an internal error.
• 6502: Target Commander X16 is no longer supported.
• 6502: Target Foenix F256 is no longer supported.
• 6502: The banked code model is no longer supported.
• 6502: Some changes in board support naming convention, but this should be fully transparent if you link with --target=c64 or --target=mega65.
• 65816: The --target=c256 option replaces --target=foenix as the foenix is too vague now with additional products coming.
• 68000: The options --target=a2560k and --target=a2560u replaces --target=foenix as the foenix is too vague.

• Compatibility with a number of games has been improved
• The CRT like display of old Amiga games got nicer, making the game look even more authentic now.
• The built-in deinterlacer/flicker fixer has been improved so that you can use old games or applications that used interlaced modes
• For improved compatibility with old games, the CPU speed can now be set in 4 stages: A2000 speed, A1200+ speed, A4000 speed, full throttle.
• The FPU (floating point unit) has been improved / compatibility has been increased
• Some FPU commands like FADD / FSQRT have been accelerated
• The CPU has become more powerful - this is very noticeable in demanding tasks such as video playback or demanding games like Robin Hood.
• Maggie 3D texture mapping has been significantly improved.
• Maggie has become much faster,
• and Maggie also supports more features and alpha blending modes.
• We added new screenmodes.
• System Super-AGA DMA was upgraded to do 256 Bit bursts

• The ROM includes a debugger like "actionreplay" this is very useful for coding or for hacking games.
• The built-in drivers can now also boot from the SD port (not just from CF).
• Users can now save their preferred settings for SAGA or CRT mode in the software acceleration settings – no more cumbersome jumpers required.
• IDE drivers support now CDrom, and several drives in connected.
• IDE drivers support also several controllers, e.g. IDE on A600 mainbaord + IDE on Manticore.

• Memory allocator: overhauled. wmem now supports aligned allocations (e.g., memalign / posix_memalign).
• Pthreads: heavily optimized. Semaphores were replaced with mutexes where appropriate. Thread-local storage (TLS) operations are now much faster thanks to targeted inline assembly.
• I/O: fixes and speedups to stdio/unistd paths; performance now closely matches newlib’s.
• Startup: fixed issues when launching programs from Workbench tooltypes. Note: existing programs may need to be recompiled.
• ctype: fully rewritten; up to ~80% faster.
• Environment: getenv() / setenv() reimplemented for higher performance.
• Misc: numerous additional fixes and improvements.

• Entering and exiting GUI when in fullscreen mode crashed.
• Vertical and horizontal centering works again.
• ECS superhires works again.
• Filter overlay graphics display positioning/size calculation was broken.
• Virtual mouse driver mode was not in sync with host cursor, both RTG and native modes.
• Fast drawing mode with 32-bit Chip RAM fix.
• When switching from emulated graphics board to native programmed mode screen, sometimes native screen had horizontal offset
• In some situations emulated graphics board was not drawn fully, bottom part was blank.
• Add Harddrive: Storage devices containing MBR partition table with RDB in later blocks was not detected correctly.
• Chipset COPxJMP sequence didn’t work in some situations.
• Rarely used chipset collision register fix.
• TCP serial mode hang fix.
• OpalVision crash fix.

• PC keyboard without numpad/end key optional translation mode. When enabled, PageUp becomes End (End still works normally). Because cartridge freeze is also PageUp, freeze becomes PageUp + PageDown. END/PageUp + cursor left is Pause and cursor right is Warp mode. (Replacing print screen key). PageUp + 7890/UIOP/JKL/M emulates numpad. Note that numpad emulation is done before PC to Amiga translation which means it does not override enabled numpad joystick option. Option in Input panel. This is registry/ini specific setting (Similar to F11 swap option).
• Copilot key now works as a right Windows (Right Amiga) key. Note that this is a quick hack and causes some (harmless) extra shift and left Windows key presses and releases when Copilot key is pressed and released because Copilot key is weird.
• Added Native/RTG autoswitcher option. Previously all RTG boards without built-in switcher always autoswitched, now it is optional, default enabled.
• ROM scanner now detects CyberStorm MK3/PPC and BlizzardPPC flash rom images using checksums. Address ranges that make ROM image unique (Serial number/board config and boot menu config data areas) are skipped in checksum calculation.
• Built-in AROS ROM updated.
• ROM scanner/loader CD32 1M single ROM handling fix.
• RoboCop 3 dongle emulation fixed.
• Debugger disassembler miscellaneous fixes and updates.

• added prefs to inverse axis
• tested pcgameport propjoy

• Restores a graphical effect previously cut for space reasons.
• Adjusts Rex’s behaviour when hitting certain environmental hazards (such as flames).
• Fixes a small issue where the airlock door on Level 1 could close on the player.
• Corrects collision on a single map element to prevent unintended interactions.
• Various small tweaks and adjustments.

• Restricted the choice of the level number in the menu to the maximum reached with the FIXED LEVEL option on (i.e. the levels reached when the option is off do not count).
• Made the level number wrap around at 1000 (i.e. levels go from 1 to 999 and then restart from 1; this was not an easy choice: ideally, there should be no limit, that is, no game end, because any humanly reasonable level could be too far for some players and too close for others; before, the code did not have any check and would simply break at level 65536, as only 16 bits were reserved for the level numbers in the data that is saved to disk; however, even if 65536 is totally insane, it felt untidy to not handle an error condition, so a round number that should feel "infinite" to everybody - 1000 - was chosen as the limit; the restart from the first level was necessary because otherwise the game would have had an end, and therefore would have required a reasonable limit - which, as said, cannot really be defined).
• Changed the menu option "START LEVEL X" to "PLAY LEVEL X".
• Touched up the manual.

• All keybindings now work on app level
• Fixed NDI crash

• thousands of lovingly animated settlers
• over 30 different professions, including 6 types of soldiers
• 4 different races with different character types: Romans, Asians, Nubians, and Vikings
• various landscapes such as lava, ice fields, swamps, forests, and much more, including the stunning winter scenery from The Settlers II Mission CD
• 10 Roman campaigns and 9 world campaigns
• 130 free bonus maps
• integrated in-game help and optimized game interface
• 4 languages: fully in German and English, with French and Polish available in-game

• Box Edition (available from October 18, 2025): This physical edition will feature a classic box format with a slip lid for € 49.90 and will include a DVD plus download option, the colored world atlas, manuals in German and English, as well as four exclusive and collectible retro-design postcards.
• Collector’s Edition (available from December 1, 2025): The game’s deluxe version will be available for € 99.90 as a wooden box in the original Settlers II design; it will be limited to 100 copies and will also include an exclusive metal magnet (8×5 cm) with the iconic castle motif from the first Settlers game—a real gem for every Amiga enthusiast and box collector.
• Digital Edition (available from October 18, 2025): For immediate gaming fun, a download-only version will also be available for € 29.90. The Settlers II will be shown to the public for the first time on the Amiga at gamescom 2025 (August 20-24) in Cologne. Fully playable versions will be showcased on a 68k Amiga, and on a PowerPC Amiga at the Look Behind You booth located inside Retro Area (hall 10.2).
