Crowdfunding: The Amiga Cheat Codes book
Dan Nielsen is raising money on Kickstarter for the book "The Amiga Cheat Codes", which will be published as a PDF file, printed with ring binding and as a softcover paperback. According to the illustrations, the book promises an pleasant design with an image from each game and the actual cheat codes that make it easier to avoid an early "game over".
No exact number of the games included is given, but it aims to cover "hundreds" of games, from "Ace the Space Race to Zoom!, from 3D Pool to 4D Sports Diving" in alphabetical order. Nielsen mentions to have curated these cheats for decades and would now want to give them back to the Amiga community in an appropriate and preservative form. (snx)

Programming: C++ on the Amiga without the standard library using GCC 2.95.3
At the title link, Grzegorz 'krashan' Kraszewski discusses the possibility of writing C++ programs for the Amiga with the GCC 2.95 compiler without using the standard library interface of the AmigaOS API.
This approach results in more compact (by about 50 kB) and, in some cases, faster programs that are better integrated into the system and can make more extensive use of AmigaOS-specific features. (snx)

Shoot'em Up: "Rex and the Galactic Plague" released
"Rex and the Galactic Plague" is a vertical scrolling shooter developed using the Scorpion Engine (video). After several demo versions, the full version has now been released.
According to the developer, the game's origins date back to 1993. It was the first game he ever created, and he had to familiarise himself with the Scorpion Engine, pixel art and animation creation. What originally started with four small levels grew over time to nine, with new enemies, bosses, dangers and weapons.
The current release requires an Amiga 1200 due to memory requirements, but a version for the Amiga 500 is also planned. (dr)

RTG driver: P96 3.6.0
Press release: The new version 3.6.0 of the Amiga-RTG system P96 contains new drivers for Matrox cards (thanks to Tim Schattkowski!), Radeon R200 cards by ATI, and the budget version of RageXL cards with 32-bit memory interface, which are available for an affordable price.
The driver for the RTG mode of Indivision ECS V4 now uses the blitter for practically every OS-based graphics function. The Blitter is a major upgrade to the feature set of Indivision ECS V4: In addition to it's main function "flicker fixer", there's now "graphics card", and it's performance can be compared to Z2 cards from the 1990s. Details about all bug fixes and improvements can be found in the article about P96 of your technical Wiki.
Due to continued database problems with this shop system, the new version of P96 will be delivered through eMail.
There will be no shipments during our summer holidays between August 4th and August 15th. Shipping on August 1st is only possible for a limited product range, as many products will already be in a different storage location. Orders that are placed during our holidays will be shipped starting August 18th, 2025. (cg)

vAmigaDOS: Web-based tool for analysing andediting ADF and HDF files
Dirk Hoffmann, author of the Amiga emulator vAmiga, explains: "vAmigaDOS is a new, web-based tool that allows you to analyse and edit ADF and HDF files. To do this, simply drag an ADF or HDF file into the browser window. A text-based shell will then open, offering several commands for analysis and editing. You can get an overview of the commands by pressing the TAB key twice. An online help window will appear, explaining all the commands.
If you want more information, e.g. about the file command, simply type file and press the TAB key twice again. The shell also supports autocompletion for file names, which makes navigation much easier. Under the hood, vAmiga provides all file system functions. The tool is currently at version 0.9.4, and I hope to get lots of beta testers."
This version is a pre-release version. Bug reports can be submitted on GitHub. (dr)

New puzzle game: Block Cannon has been published
Block Cannon is the title of the latest puzzle game for the Amiga, which developer TheoTheoderich has just released (video).
Block Cannon is all about using skillful joystick controls to place three or more blocks of the same color in a row so that they disappear and earn you points. The speed increases over time, and the goal is to score as many points as possible before the blocks reach the top of the screen.
The game runs on as little as 512 KB of Chip RAM and Kickstart 1.2 or higher, and offers a "Competition Mode" with three predefined start patterns (A, B, C) - ideal for competitions on multiple Amiga systems under identical conditions.
Block Cannon can be downloaded free of charge as an ADF for emulators or as an LHA for real Amiga systems. (nba)

Flickerfixer/scandoubler: Indivision ECS V4 software 1.1 (beta), P96 driver
Individual Computers is providing a software update for the Indivision ECS V4 scandoubler/flickerfixer, which has been available since this month. Jens Schönfeld writes:
Config tool V1.1 (release candidate) contains the latest core with Framebuffer and 2D acceleration. The tool will also complain if it's opened on an RTG screen. If P96 has taken over, it really did, and also takes control of output frequencies. The software would compete for output modes and hardware resources in general, which can't be resolved in a meaningful way. The best solution is to launch the tool when it's on a native graphics mode.
Launch this tool and make a rescue disk first. Then choose "Flash Firmware" from the drop-down menu (press and hold the right mouse button and move the mouse to the "Firmware" text in the title bar of the screen). The screen will turn black and the monitor will lose sync during the update process, which takes around 15 seconds. Don't interrupt this process - let it run until the picture comes back. The new core will be active immediately, which you can verify on the core version displayed in the OSD
I have also added a tiny archive with the new P96 driver for Indivision ECS V4. Install by copying it to the libs:Picasso96/ drawer. This driver makes use of the blitter. Further, transfers from an A1200 accelerator on ACA500plus into the ECS V4 frame buffer are twice as fast if you have hardware ACA500plus HW ID $0B. This is shipped as standard with current cards, and we'll make a JTAG Updater available for all older versions of the ACA500plus (all the way back to units shipped in 2016!) in a few weeks.
Please report back if you find any errors - or if it just works for you. The P96 driver should work with older versions of P96 as well (back to V3.2.0), so in order to participate in thie beta test, you don't have to buy the latest version but use the one you've purchased between December 2020 and today.

Action adventure: Amiga 40 update of Castlevania AGA
To mark the 40th anniversary of the Amiga, Dante Mende has released a major update to his port of Konami's NES action-adventure game "Castlevania" (video), which offers features such as better color use, AGA gradients, animated backdrops, calibrated jump physics, menu toggle for weapons release method and new music tracks by IM76 and DJ Metune.
And the author points out: "Since this is a fairly big update, it's expected that it may fail in different hardware configurations or produce unexpected results. Known issues: may play the wrong animation while on stairs, or get stuck, specially if you use up/down. Prefer to use left/right and treat stairs as if they are a terrain slope (which they are, internal engine-wise)." (dr)

At the end of May, we reported for the first time on Ryan 'bluewizard' Stapleton's project to write "AMail", a modern email client for AmigaOS 3.2 that supports IMAP and SMTP. In a new preview video, he explains that the secure connection via AmiSSL now works, which took him a lot of time.
He also describes what is not yet working – emails are not stored locally, and the ability to delete emails on the server still needs to be implemented – and which features he would like to add. He expects to release a pre-alpha version by the end of September. (dr)
