`27.May.2021`	Redesign: Amiga-compatible Joypad 'Protopad' The well-known C64 vendor Protovision has successfully finished a fundraising campaign for the production of new joypads especially designed for the C64, but also compatible with Amiga (we reported). More than 15,000 Euro collected mean that the new paddles including multibutton controllers can be produced. Now they are thinking about a redesign. The developers write: "After the successful crowdfunding campaign for the Protopad, we worked enthusiastically on the project and made some tweaks to make this pad the best possible. During this time, we realized that we were not satisfied with the controller case we originally intended to use. As a result, we are currently looking into suitable alternatives. This has set us back a bit in our intended schedule." (dr) (Translation: bb) [News message: 27. May. 2021, 06:50] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]

`25.May.2021` MorphZone (website)	MorphOS: IRC client AmIRC 3.8 / MorphOS IRC support moves to Libera Chat Nicolas 'Henes' Sallin and Harry 'Piru' Sintonen, who continue AmIRC development, have published an update of the IRC client for MorphOS. Since version 3.6.2, e.g. SSL support has been added and the default server list been updated. Furthermore, the official IRC support channel of the MorphOS developer team has changed. Due to an internal dispute at the previously used Freenode network following its change of ownership in 2017, the MorphOS support channel has been moved to Libera Chat. Besides this new channel, #morphos at irc.libera.chat, also the old one at Freenode will stay online for now but could be closed down at any time. Changes since AmIRC 3.6.2: GUI: Updated default server list GUI: Added yyyymmdd timestamp feature DCC: Fixed buffer overflows when resolving IP Net: Added SSL support. To enable it, add a + before the server port (i.e. /server host +6697), add the UseSSL argument/tooltype or use the GUI. MorphOS only General: Does not use vapor_toolkit.libray anymore. MorphOS only General: Fixed a few bugs Download: amirc_38_morphos.lha (2 MB) (snx) [News message: 25. May. 2021, 13:40] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]
