AmigaOS 4: CPC-Emulator Arnold
Arnold emulates the CPC-computers from Armstrad or Schneider (Screenshot) respectively. The main goal is a very near emulation of the original system, therefore most of the CPC-software should work properly.

The AmigaOS port of Dr.Hirudo still contains some bugs which should be fixed in future releases:
  • uses all the cpu resources
  • slower in fullscreen mode than in window
  • renders graphics only on 32-bit depth
  • when emulating some noises - the emulator crashes - represented when playing "Space Harrier"
  • double size mode is slow
  • when set frameskip, the emulator speeds up instead of working at 100% speed and skipping frames

Emulation: Amiga Forever 2006
As can be gathered from the RSS feed from Cloanto, the company has released an update to its emulator package Amiga Forever to production.

According to this, the downloadable versions of the Amiga emulator already reflect the new version. A free update to the previous year version, Amiga Forever 2005, is reportedly available via the Software Director. The latter also applies to the Premium Edition, since the contents of the DVD's have remained unchanged. (snx) (Translation: cad)

MorphOS Mailing List: Problems with GMX accounts
For several days, the E-Mail provider GMX is blocking all Mails that originate from the morphos-team.net domain or that should be sent to this domain. Apparently, GMX servers wrongly consider the IP address belonging to the said domain to belong to a dial-up account, the communication with such IP's are are always blocked by GMX.

GMX users have no influence on this behavior of GMX servers. The people in charge of morphos-team.net have already contacted GMX, however, no quick solution seems to be in sight at present. MorphOS users with a GMX account are therefore recommended to use another E-Mail account for the communication with, for instance, the official MorphOS mailing list. (cg) (Translation: cad)

BarsnPipes New 1.25b with integrated UI
As the skin funcionality (e.g. interface look designed by the user) was almost not used at all did Alfred Faust decide to create a version of BarsnPipes New 1.25 where all 460 images of its 64 colour interface are integrated into the program's code and therefore do not have to be loaded additionally anymore.

This decreases the loading time of BarsnPipes New significiantly especially on slower computers. This version might be the better solution for the user who doesn't need the skin functionality. (cg) (Translation: wk)

AmigaOS 4: X11-Server with GTK, WxWidgets and Amaya (preview)
In a thread on amigaworld.net Edgar Schwan has announced that he is going to port the X11-server to AmigaOS 4. The old server makes some trouble and so the author uses an existing, ixemul-based 68k-version. The libraries and clients have been ported yet.

Ports of GTK/GKD 1.2.20, WxWidgets and the CSS-Web-Browser Amaya (currently without netzwork support) Schwan has finished. A first preversion will come soon.

Screenshots: 1, 2, 3. (cg) (Translation: dr)

AROS: Lunapaint 0.2
Hogne 'Monsoon' Titlestad has released an update of his graphics software "Lunapaint" for AROS/x86 (Screenshot 1, 2). In version 0.2 projects now can be saved and opened as well as animations created and pictures exported.

But a completely stable operation at the hosted system isn't the case yet, therefore the use of the native AROS version is recommended.
