Preview video 27: Souverän Soccer
Daniel 'Daytona675x' Müßener (Wings Remastered, MiniGL4GL4ES, Tower 57) is working on a soccer game with 3D view called "Souverän Soccer" (amiga-news.de reported). According to the developer, "the game still runs on a standard A1200 without turbo card and without Fast RAM in PAL lowres with 50 frames per second."

About his 27. preview video the developer wrote: "This time I concentrated not so much on the ingame playfield engine but more on all that other necessary stuff, mostly the menus and tournament logic. Therefore the new video is maybe a bit boring to watch ;) Nevertheless it's a very huge step forward because from now on "only" the actual match gameplay is missing, everything else is in place (well, apart from bug fixes and polishing and some music and more sfx, of course)."

Farming simulation: Update of Farmiga
The Polish developer 'Tukinem' is writing a farming simulation in AMOS, called 'Farmiga' (amiga-news.de reported). Yesterday another update veröffentlicht. Änderungen:
  • Mill for the production of wheat flour added
  • Bake oven bread from flour
  • Added milk-drinking cat, thanks to which mice do not steal flour from the warehouse
  • Added sheep and cat sound
  • New background music for the mini-game with the fox and the main farm screen :-)
  • Enlarged farm x2 !!! Scrolling through the image when reaching the edge of the page
  • Improved upper rainbow that no longer disappears from the screen
  • When shopping / selling on the store map screen, the top screen with available cash is not hidden, so that the account and stock status can be seen at any time
Adding scrolling leads to increased hardware requirements: 1,5MB ChipRAM bzw. 1MB Chip + 0,5MB FastRAM. (dr)

Do it yourself: Clock port/Raspberry Pi interface
After the adapter board "A314" (amiga-news.de reported) Niklas Ekström now provides information under the title link for the reproduction of an interface with which communication between Amiga and Raspberry Pi is possible via the clock port.

After appropriate software adjustments, the developer hopes to be able to run services such as the file system a314fs, which enables access to directories of the Raspberry Pi, and the SANA II network driver via it. (snx)

Music editor: MusicMaker V8 Version 3.16
As Thomas Winischhofer told us at the end of October last year, the development of his 'MusicMaker V8' was actually finished. Apparently, however, he always finds the time and inclination to fix minor bugs and to continue to maintain his sample-based music editor, which he started as a hobby project in 1986, so that since version 3.12, the fourth update to version 3.16 has now been released. Changes since our last report:

Version 3.16:
  • Relocated prefs file (MM_V8.prefs) from S: to ENVARC:, if the latter exists (which is normally the case under OS2 and later). This also fixes the annoying requester when starting MM under 1.3.
  • Installer: Install MM_V8.prefs to ENVARC: if available
  • Installer: Ask if prefs file should be overwritten
  • Installer: By default, do not install developer kit
  • Add install script for AmigaDOS 1.3 since the installer needs >=2.x
Version 3.15:
  • Filerequester: Fix long standing and potentially lethal sorting bug
Version 3.14:
  • Filerequester:
    • Make list display faster
    • The path-resolving-bahavior described under the entry for 3.13 below was for OS2 and later. Now MM does the same under 1.3.
Version 3.13:
  • Filerequester:
    • fix race cond when typing a filename
    • No longer resolve assigns when clicking "Parent"
