AmigaOS 4: MediaVault 1.4.3 (update)
MediaVault is an open source application for AmigaOS 4 which can be used to discover online radio stations and, since Version 1.4.0, also to listen to podcasts. An external player like AmigaAmp and the jansson.library v2.12.1 are required. By releasing the new version 1.4.2, the author George Sokianos has adapted his program to the changed api so searching for radio stations is working again.
Update: (12:43, 21.10.21, dr)
Meanwhile version 1.4.3 is available which fixes some bugs and was compiled with openssl to 1.1.1l.

Game announcement: 'Balloons' for all Amiga systems
Achim Kern is not only continuously working on his 'SmartHome' project for automating one's own four walls (amiga-news.de reported), but also uses the multimedia-oriented programming language Hollywood used for this purpose to develop games such as Mars Tank Attack.
In his latest game project, 'Balloons', those balloons have to be shot at a fair, with the difficulty increasing from level to level: with more balloons, shorter time and a limited number of shots. Likewise, in higher levels, certain sequences are given, such as three blue, two red, four green balloons. This sounds simple, but the player has to remember this order...If you have further ideas for levels, please contact Achim Kern. The screenshots kindly provided by the author should give a first impression. The game will be available for free for all platforms supported by Hollywood Player and is planned for the end of the year.

MorphOS: Adventure interpreter ScummVM 2.5.0
Press release: Twenty years ago today, on Tue Oct 9 16:30:12 2001, Ludvig Strigeus pushed the initial revision of the ScummVM code, which was version 0.0.1 of the project. Time flew quickly and, fast-forward to the present day, we are proudly releasing ScummVM 2.5.0 "Twenty years ago today…"
The list of changes is tremendous.
First of all, this is the first release that supports 2.5D games (almost 3D), thanks to the merger with ResidualVM. With this release we announce support for Grim Fandango, The Longest Journey and Myst 3: Exile. This is why we jumped straight to 2.5 in our versioning. Please note that only desktop platforms currently support these games and other platforms may or may not gain the support later depending on their capabilities.
In addition to these 3 games and engines, we officially support 10 more new engines and subengines that add compatibility with the following games:
- Little Big Adventure
- Red Comrades 1: Save the Galaxy
- Red Comrades 2: For the Great Justice
- Transylvania
- Crimson Crown
- OO-Topos
- Glulx interactive fiction games
- Private Eye
- AGS Games versions 2.5+
- Nightlong: Union City Conspiracy
- The Journeyman Project 2: Buried in Time
- Crusader: No Remorse
- L-ZONE
- Spaceship Warlock
We love localized game releases and multiple platform versions, thus with this release, we enhanced the support for Lure of the Temptress Konami release, Blue Force Spanish, Ringworld Spanish, Amazon: Guardians of Eden Spanish, Mystery House French, Russian translations of Sierra AGI games, Elvira 1 Japanese PC-98, Bargon Attack Russian, Woodruff Russian, Eye of the Beholder Japanese Sega-CD, Legend of Kyrandia Hebrew, Legend of Kyrandia 2 Hebrew, Legend of Kyrandia 3 Simplified Chinese, Inherit the Earth PC-98 Japanese, Gabriel Knight 1 Macintosh, Xeen Russian to name but a few. Notably, Macintosh b/w versions of Loom and Indy 3 are now also supported.
Besides the new games and game versions, ScummVM 2.5.0 brings many notable improvements and new features. We have completed a major rework of the GUI: We now support Unicode characters everywhere. The GUI also adapts to high resolutions used in HiDPI screens. The Nintendo DS port has been significantly rewritten. We added GOG and Steam achievements to a large number of Wintermute games and enabled KeyMapper in more games. Thanks to the work of one of our GSoC students, we have now added an option for text-to-speech to the games Sfinx, Soltys and The Griffon Legend.
You may find all of this goodness available to a number of platforms on our download page or let the autoupdater kick in on Macintosh and Windows.
We wish you great adventuring, happy puzzle-solving and exciting journeys to RPG worlds, and hope to see you around in the coming years.
And by the way, GOG.com is running a special promo tied to the release and our anniversary, where you can buy many ScummVM-supported games at a discount.

Floppy disk images reading and writing on PC or Mac: Greaseweazle 0.31
Keir Fraser's "Greaseweazle" does - similar to Kryoflux - read the magnetic information on a floppy disk independently from the format used and saves as much information as possible to generate a so-called "Flux Level Image" in Supercard format (SCP), which enables reading and back-writing of copy-protected disks (amiga-news.de reported).
The adapter gets connected between a floppy disk drive - e.g. a standard 3.5" PC one - and a USB port of the PC or Mac. Now released version 0.31 increases USB buffer size from 16 to 64 KB. Greaseweazle is available at various dealers.

BASIC compiler: AQB 0.7.2
By his compiler AQB, Günter Bartsch aims to implement a modern, clean, Amiga compatible and future-proof BASIC that is geared to, but no clone of Microsoft's AmigaBASIC and QuickBASIC, respectively.
In version 0.7.2, besides further function calls and bugfixes, an online documentation in AmigaGuide format has been added and the Auto-Format feature fine-tuned. Most formattings and spellings of identifiers are preserved now. Keywords are still recognized and turned into upper case letters, indentations are carried out automatically and folding is also still supported.

Hollywood: APK Compiler 4.0 released
Press release: Airsoft Softwair, the hardest working men in code business, are proud to announce the immediate availability of Hollywood APK Compiler 4.0. The Hollywood APK Compiler is an add-on for Hollywood that allows you to compile your Hollywood scripts into stand-alone apps for Android, ready to be distributed via the Play Store!
Hollywood APK Compiler 4.0 is a major update which now supports compiling Android App Bundles (AAB) as well. Starting from August 2021, new apps uploaded to the Play Store must use the AAB format which is why the Hollywood APK Compiler supports this format now too. Of course, it's still possible to compile APKs because those are really useful for sideloading or distribution outside the Play Store. Another new feature in Hollywood APK Compiler 4.0 is support for the final version of RapaGUI 2.0. Everything in the final version of RapaGUI 2.0 is now supported by the Hollywood APK Compiler as well!
The update to Hollywood APK Compiler 4.0 is available free of charge for all existing customers and can be downloaded from the restricted download area.
