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.

QEMU frontend for booting AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS: Kyvos V1.1.0
Just over a week ago, we reported on the cross-platform (Linux, macOS and Windows) QEMU front end "Kyvos" published by George Sokianos, which is designed to make it particularly easy for users to set up and start AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS with just a few clicks, without having to delve deep into the configuration.
With the update to version 1.1.0, it is now possible, among other things, to set up up to three different hard disk images in a virtual system via the "Media" tab. In addition, 26 pages have been added to the manual, including a brand new section on AmigaOS 4.1 FE and all the steps required to update it with the latest available software. (dr)

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)

The puzzle game "Master of Minefields" (video) was originally written for AmiGameJam 2024 (amiga-news.de reported) and took second place there. It offers ten different game modes and 350 levels. The final version now released offers the following improvements over the AmiGameJam version:
- Enhanced visual and audio effects
- Full mouse support and ability to use multiple controls at once
- Refined music tracks by Simone 'JMD' Bernacchia
- Smoother graphics and sound
- Rebalanced gameplay across all modes
- Fully working Hardcode mode
- Versus mode with dual mouse support (one of the few Amiga titles to allow gameplay with two mice :)!)
- Full NTSC support
- Extensive code optimizations and tons of bug fixes
You will need an Amiga with an AGA chipset and approximately 1.5 MB of free Chip RAM. A version for the CD32 is also available. Cost: just under seven euros. (dr)

Preview video: E-mail client "AMail" v0.0.5
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)

Nature sounds for relaxation: auraFly 1.1.1
George Sokianos' Hollywood program auraFly for AmigaOS, MorphOS and AROS/x86 allows you to mix different nature sounds to relax or work more focused (amiga-news.de reported). You can now save your selected sounds and volumes as presets, and five of these mixes are already included.
In addition, the window size has been significantly reduced to take up less space on the screen. However, the program can also be iconified without interrupting playback. (snx)

"Hst Amiga": Reading and writing Amiga partition tables, v0.5.196
Henrik Nørfjand Stengaard's "Hst Amiga" (see also his HstWB Installer) is a library for reading and writing Amiga partition table, file systems, data types and is available as a Nuget package for .Net and a console application for Windows, macOS and Linux.

The current version 0.5.196 adds, among other things, EPROM build commands for A500, A600, A2000, A1200, A3000 and A4000 to create EPROM bin files. (dr)

Spillhistorie: Interview with Fredrik Liljegren zu Pinball Dreams (englisch)
The Norwegian games magazine Spillhistorie has published an interesting interview with Fredrik Liljegren, in which the co-founder of Digital Illusions (later DICE) talks in detail about the development of the Amiga classic Pinball Dreams. Liljegren takes a close look at the game's beginnings, from its origins in the demo scene to the technical concept and the selection of a publisher.
He describes how the team was able to faithfully simulate real pinball tables using an unusual design—vertically scrolling playing fields across multiple screens. The result: realistic ball physics, impressive graphics and sound design, and unexpected success with over 650,000 units sold in the first year. The game was developed entirely in the developers' spare time, which explains the long development time of over four years. He also talks about early strategies against piracy, such as special crack detectors that introduced variable ball physics or score influences for copied versions.
The interview does not only offer historical insights, but also personal memories and a behind-the-scenes perspective. (nba)

Web browser: NetSurf 3.11 (68k)
Version 3.11 of the web browser NetSurf has been released for AmigaOS 4 at the end of 2023. Now the program has also been updated for AmigaOS/68k.
In addition to the general changes of the 3.11 version, also AmiSSL has been updated (version 5.20 is required), the CPU load management has been improved and a crash on exit under AmigaOS 3.2 has been fixed. In addition, a simple JavaScript engine can be used, but more for testing purposes, as it slows everything down without providing any major benefit.

Seligenstadt Pinball and Arcade Museum: Fundraising campaign for reopening
The Flipper and Arcade Museum in Seligenstadt is calling for support: Due to roof damage and the associated risk of collapse, the museum has had to close temporarily. While the exhibits have been moved to an external warehouse, the non-profit association For Amusement Only e.V. is in urgent need of funds.
That is why the "Museumsretter 2025" ("Saver of the Museum") campaign has been launched. You can support the museum by:
- Purchase of the limited edition "Museumsretter 2025 - Insert Coin to Continue" T-shirt (price: ¤22, available in various colors)
- Direct donations via PayPal or bank transfer
- Supporting membership in the association
Supporters will receive a donation receipt upon request. The association hopes that with this assistance, repairs can be completed within a few months and the museum can reopen to visitors. Further information about the campaign and merchandise is available online via the title link. (nba)
