`30.Jun.2002` Steffen Nitz (ANF)	Database: SN-MünzArchiv V1.01 Steffen Nitz has released version 1.01 of his coin management software "SN-MünzArchiv" on Aminet. This program is suitable for all popular coins (e.g. Euro, DM, GDR, investment ounces etc.). He writes about this: On the Ami-Force page of CJ-Stroker a survey has now gone online to find out which collectors databases you'd like to have. Please participate lively - even those not interested at all, so I can get a relatively correct impression. Planned features for version 1.1: A sales window, to get an overview of which coins have been sold (with statistics). Introduction of a year number statistic. The following changes have been incorporated into the current version: Version 1.0 Instructions are now available. A parts list window for each quality type has been added. It is now possible to search for entries. A new statistics type (enumeration) has been added. In list processing the lists can now be sorted and entries deleted. On startup via CLI a data record can be passed which is then loaded automatically. Thus it is possible to start the program by double-clicking a data record. It is also possible to enter a data record in the settings which is to be loaded upon startup of SN-MünzArchiv. Entries can be exported and appended. Lists can be printed. Upon saving of a database, a backup (.bak) is now created. Version 1.01 It is again possible to enter records into the lists without having to press the sort button. It may not have escaped your attention that some features had already been in V0.8. I had made the mistake of doing 2-3 uploads with this version number which is why I list all changes from after the first upload.

`29.Jun.2002` Amiga Future	Source code of the render.library released Tim S. Müller has released the source code of the render.library version 31.0. Changes since version 30.0: Simplified the over-complex quantization algorithm. The new algorithm leads to similar results, with much better performance. Semaphores are (finally!) correctly initialized to zero. Minor cleanup. Download: renderlib_src.lha - readme - history What kind of library is the render.library? render.library is an Amiga shared library that serves an image processing kernel. render.library is an interface between planar, truecolor and chunky graphics, plus it supports all Amiga specific pixel and color schemes. render.library provides palette management, histograms, alpha channel processing, color reduction, rendering, dithering, scaling, texture mapping, and lots of conversion functions. render.library is built on a distinct architecture of functional classes, which allows e.g. texture mapping and rendering in a single pass, without the need to allocate intermediate buffers. render.library is fast. render.library comes with autodocs and tutorials, and is freeware for freeware and shareware applications.

`29.Jun.2002` Andreas R. Kleinert (E-Mail)	akJFIF/PNG/TIFF 45.1 now freeware and Amithlon-optimized Starting with V45.1 (29.6.02), the datatypes akJFIF/PNG/TIFF are Freeware. The keyfile code and some other legacy stuff has been removed. This also may speed things up, since there are less special cases to be covered. Furthermore, a couple of different optimizations in the 68k code have been made, some bugs were fixed and some amithlon/uae- specific optimizations have been made. Download links: akJFIF-dt.LHA akPNG-dt.LHA akTIFF-dt.LHA These datatypes now are specifically targeted to high-end 68k machines and their emulated counterparts. (ps) [News message: 29.

`29.Jun.2002` AmiLator.de (ANF)	Emulator: MAME v0.60 for 68k Next to the port of Freecraft (see Amiga-News dated June, 28th 2002) has SixK released MAME v0.60 in a 68k version on his homepage, too.

`28.Jun.2002` Andreas R. Kleinert (E-Mail)	AK-Datatype: akJFIF for Amithlon Andreas R. Kleinert writes: Out of curiosity, I've removed PPC support from akJFIF datatype and instead did some uae/amithlon-specific optimizations (no native x86 code yet, though). Download für V44.140: akJFIF-dt.LHA Other datatypes/programs may follow. PPC support is gone for now, since I don't own any PPC card anymore and did not get any Pegasos developer board, either.

`28.Jun.2002` Amiga Community by SixK	SixK SDL-game port: Freecraft version 1.17.1 SixK offers ports of SDL-games on its website 'Amiga Community'. The SDL-library makes the programming of games and other multimedia-products possible which do not depend on platforms. The game Freecraft in version 1.17.1 has been now added. It is a clone of Warcraft. According to SixK the game runs fine on Amithlon (but there are some colour problems), a little bit slower on an Amiga (040/33) and should run very well on an Amiga with 060 processor and graphic board.

Additionally to the soundtrack the texts of research have been added and string-input-boxes created.

Meanwhile the wars on Tamar become more intensive. Please read the chronicle to get a survey. If you are fond of game of roles and games of strategy you should not pass this game! The testers have played this game for two years and are still enthusiastic. This game will revolutionize the world of PBEM-games (PBEM = PlayByEMail). (ps) (Translation: dr) [News message: 28.
