Video: Reproduction of "Four-Byte Burger" artwork
On his YouTube channel "Ahoy", Stuart Brown produces documentary-style video content about video games and their influence on culture. His latest video is dedicated to the "Four-Byte Burger", an example from the early days of digital art. The image shows a colourful cheeseburger designed by Commodore's art director Jack Haeger. The original file was not saved and the image is only preserved as a copy because Haeger took photos of the monitor with a 35mm camera. In his video, Brown explores the question of whether a perfect reproduction of the image is possible.

Diagnosis tool: DiagROM 1.3, Announcement of version 2.0
DiagROM is a diagnosis software which has to be burned into an EPROM and then replaces the regular Kickstart-ROM of an Amiga (amiga-news.de reported). The tool does not require any driver, IRQs or something like that and therefore should also run on only partly working computers performing hardware tests and identifying problems.

Tutorial: Updated installation guide for AmigaOS 4.1 under QEMU 8
About four weeks ago we published Rene Engel's Installation guide for AmigaOS 4.1 under QEMU 8, which he had created in collaboration with the Amiga QEMU developer Zoltan Balaton and which at that time still referred to the first release candidate of QEMU 8. The manual had not only triggered a lively discussion, numerous tests and a lot of feedback in our (German) forum, but also beyond. As a result, further problems and pitfalls could be concretised, analysed and partly solved. Since the official version 8.0.0 of QEMU has been available since yesterday, Rene Engel has revised his installation instructions on the basis of this and the feedback from the users. A big thank you to all those who have contributed!

THEA500 Mini: Running Atari ST programs with emutos-amiga.rom and Amiberry
For "THEA500 Mini" Siegfried Hübner describes at the title link how to run also Atari ST programs on this rebuild of the Amiga 500 by Retro Games Ltd. Required are EmuTOS-Amiga.ROM and AmiBerry.
To avoid a flickering display, open the Amiberry menu and change Display Line Mode from "Single" to "Double". The .st floppy disk images are compressed with GZip, so that for example the file disk.st becomes disk.st.gz instead.

Linux: Nanosaur V1.44 ported
Nanosaur was released in 1998 by Pangea Software as a Mac exclusive. It was a pack-in game on Macs that came out around that time. Nanosaur casts a cybernetic dinosaur from the future who’s sent back in time 20 minutes before a giant asteroid hits the Earth. The developer 'jorio' has ported the MacOS 8 version with permission of Pangea Software to run on modern systems.
Christian 'xeno74' Zigotzky, in turn, has compiled the source code for 32-bit Linux PPC on the basis of this LinuxPPC port, so that the game runs, for example, with the distribution Fienix on an AmigaOne X1000 or 5000.

Windows: Embedding media files into Amiga RAM for usage in own programs
'RetroNick', the author of the Sprite/Icon/Map editor "Raster Master" for Windows 10/11, has released "Hunkster" (named after the Hunk format), a Windows program that allows programmers to convert media files so that they are loaded by the Amiga into its memory, if necessary also specifically into Chip or Fast RAM. In the source code of a custom C or Pascal program, their address in memory can then be transferred to a variable or an array, respectively, and used for execution.
The author himself is only interested in publishing the Windows version, but a version for Linux is just as possible. Interested developers should then fork his repository and adapt the name (for example "LinuxHunkster").
