AmigaOS 4 / MorphOS: VoxelNoid
VoxelNoid is a Breakout clone and "takes the classic break-out theme to a new level by integrating an amazing 3D voxel appearance into the game-play." There is also a two player mode where you can send "penalty-bricks to his playfield whenever you blast away 2 of your own bricks."

VoxelNoid is available for free, donations are very welcome. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Amiga-Emulator: FS-UAE 2.5.18dev (Update)
Frode Solheim's FS-UAE for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and BSD is based on WinUAE and can be completely controlled with a joypad. Since the last stable version released in March (2.4.1), so far only developer versions have been released.

Changes in FS-UAE 2.5.17dev:
  • Initial support for magic mouse / virtual mouse
  • New option mouse_integration (boolean) (Setting it to 1 implies cursor=0, automatic_input_grab=0)
  • New option cursor (boolean + auto)
  • Removed audio_buffer_target_bytes (use audio_buffer_target_size instead)
  • Changes to audio buffer fill logic
  • Measure fps internally with floating point numbers
  • Fixed cyberstormppc.rom lookup when using FS-UAE config file
  • Fixed ISO-8859-1 UTF-8 conversion (broke in 2.5.15dev)
  • Renamed testing option workbench -> workbenc_disk
  • Updated emulation core from WinUAE 2900b17
Known bugs:
  • The PearPC fallback may not work properly. Please make sure you are using the qemu-uae plugin (check in fs-uae.log.txt that it is loaded properly) if you’re having problems.
  • AmigaOS 4.1 w/Picasso IV => sometimes weird frame rate (~36 FPS)
  • When starting FS-UAE from FS-UAE Launcher, accelerator flashs ROM writes are not persistent because the launcher uses a new copy every time
  • Booting CD32 with CD inserted works, but inserting later, or eject + re-insert does not seem to work right now
  • On OS X, cursor movement is currently not received by FS-UAE when the window is not focused (either something SDL 2 or OS X itself does). This makes mouse integration a bit less useful.
Update: (18:17, 30.09.14, snx)
Meanwhile, version 2.5.18dev is available already. Changes can be found at the title link. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Tracker: DigiBooster 3.1
Press release: DigiBooster 3.1 has been released for AmigaOS 3.x, AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS. DigiBooster 3.1 is available on CD-ROM and as download at the online shop of APC&TCP.

DigiBooster 3.1 follows the traditional tracker's way of making music with an advanced audio processing engine, and an up-to-date MUI based graphical user interface. It retains backward compatibility with its Amiga ancestor, DigiBooster Pro 2. On the other hand the program code has been written from scratch. Its modular design gives it a straightforward path for future development. Except for versions for classic Amiga computers, DigiBooster 3.1 is also compiled for PowerPC processors, taking advantage of their greater computing power.

DigiBooster 3.1 key features:
  • ProTracker modules import. DigiBooster 3.1 can load and play basic four track modules, as well as multichannel ones, up to 32 channels. Import quality is significantly better than in DigiBooster Pro 2.x
  • Autosaving. DigiBooster 3.1 can save in user defined periods of time and keep defined number of lately saved versions with autorotation
  • Finished block operations in the pattern editor. DigiBooster 3.1 supports multitrack blocks. Block operations are also available in the ARexx interface
  • ARexx commands for loading/importing the module and starting playback
  • New languages: French and Polish
How to get an update to version 3.1? The update from version 3.0 to 3.1 is available for free! Updates from older releases (DigiBooster Pro 2.x) are not possible.

Users who bought the download version before just have to login at the online-shop and simply download the current full version archive of DigiBooster 3.1.

Users with the CD-ROM version of DigiBooster 3.0 simply write an e-mail to info@apc-tcp.de with the following content:
  • Registration number (not serial number)
  • Complete postal address
  • Your e-mail address (the archive is about 3 MB in size)
You will get your update immediately via e-mail.

DigiBooster 3.1 system requirements:
  • AmigaOS 3.x:
    • Minimum: 68020, harddrive, 8 MB Fast RAM, Workbench 3.0, MUI 3.8, AHI 4.x, screenmode 640x480
    • Recommended: AmigaOS 3.x, 68060/50 MHz, 16 MB Fast RAM, graphics card, soundcard
    • Supports: WinUAE (JIT enabled) with Picasso96 and dedicated AHI drivers
  • AmigaOS 4:
    • Minimum: AmigaOS 4.0, harddrive, 128 MB RAM, MUI 3.9
    • Recommended: AHI compatible soundcard, 500+ MHz processor
  • MorphOS:
    • Minimum: MorphOS 2.7, harddrive, 128 MB RAM
    • Recommended: AHI compatible soundcard, 500+ MHz processor
