New external PCMCIA adapter for A1200: KA02
At rastport.com an external PCMCIA adapter is introduced which places the PCMCIA card "vertically along the Amiga side, and which occupies much less place on the desk." By that you can save space e.g. for ethernet cards with cable connection. rastport.com's products are distributed via a number of dealers that are listed at the landing page of the developers website.

Note of the editor: For tower cases  - in which usually external PCMCIA adapters are used  - this version might be less suitable because according to the photos the port is probably higher than at an A1200 motherboard in a tower case. (cg) (Translation: dr)

MorphOS: E-Mail client Iris, beta version 40
Jacek 'jacadcaps' Piszczek's "Iris" is supposed to become the standard mail program for MorphOS. It supports IMAP and can read and create HTML mails. The program requires MorphOS 3.10. You can give feedback to the author using the corresponding discussion on Morphzone.

The developer wrote: "This beta introduces the ability to move messages within an IMAP account and adds a more modern icon set from icons8.com. Some synchronization bugs have also been fixed."

Trevor Dickinson: status updates for Tabor, LibreOffice and Enhancer
This weekend, the 20th edition of AmiWest is taking place in Sacramento (USA). As usual, there's a big presentation (Youtube) from Trevor Dickinson (A-EON), but for the first time in many years there's no presentation or quick appearance from a Hyperion spokesperson. The following is a summary of the most important topics discussed during the A-EON presentation.

Tabor / A1222

The hardware was shipped to developers in 2014, betatesters received their boards in 2015 - nobody expected the process to take that long. What's missing before the board can be released is the audio driver and a finalised AmigaOS 4 ISO containing said driver. Dickinson could not describe the audio driver's current status since an update from the developer working on it didn't reach him in time for the show. He estimates that the boards will ship somehwere in the first quarter of 2019.

LibreOffice

Just like last year, Dickinson didn't address LibreOffice during his presentation. Asked about the office suite's current status afterwards, he explains that Hans-Jörg Frieden has been working on the project for two years 'part time'. After releasing a first beta to the testers in 2017, Frieden realised that he was facing "insurmountable problems" in finishing the port - AmigaOS was missing too much functionality.

After that, it was decided to base the AmigaOS port on the new Android version of LibreOffice 5, in which many of the problems Frieden was facing had already been solved - meaning the developer had to start from scratch again. Dickinson estimates that a beta version of the new port could be released to testers in January.

Enhancer

Later this year, developers will get free access to a "Enhancer Software Essentials" package that contains the libraries, gadgets and classes distributed with Enhancer to have more applications use these new features.

A paid upgrade to Enhancer, "Enhancer 2", is in the works, details are listed in one of Dickinson's slides (see below). A free [we think, Amiga-News] "Enhancer Graphics Update Pack" will be released before that, containing updates of various drivers and graphics subsystems aswell as the graphics card drivers for Radeon cards using the Polaris chipset that were announced earlier this year.

A 'Classic' edition of Enhancer for AmigaOS 3 is in the works. Users that want to help betatest it are asked to contact A-EON using enhancersoftware@amiga.org. While talking about this edition, Dickinson also mentions that A-EON purchased the rights to MediaToolBox, the HDToolBox successor from AmigaOS 4.

Miscellaneous

At the beginning of his presentation, Dickinson jokingly mentions he didn't bring an "Audio Conversation Jammer" and asks attendees not to secretly record his conversations with other people.

A-EON is looking for developers willing to work on some of the applications that were acquired. Octamed, ImageFX and Aladdin 4D are mentioned as examples.

Asked about a modern web browser, Dickinson explains that he's hoping to get a "leightweight, webkit based" browser done. But this would have to wait at least until LibreOffice is released.

Slides

The following screenshots show the slides from Dickinson's presentation that were shown during the (low resolution) live stream:

MorphOS: AppLauncher.sbar 2.1 (Update)
Thomas Igracki's screenbar module for Ambient's AppLauncher (screenshot) makes it possible to "start any application from every (public) screen without the need to switch to the Ambient screen or remember hotkeys". And the author also wrote: "This screenbar module opens a popup menu if you click on the butterfly symbol in your screenbar. There you can select the application you want to start!"

Version 2.0 offers a menu editor for a more simple configuration.

Download: Applauncher_sbar_2.0.lha (20 KB)

Update: (10:40, 14.10.18, snx)
Meanwhile version 2.1 has been released (bugfixes). (snx) (Translation: dr)

Image editing: RNOEffects 1.1
RNOEffects is an image editing software for AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS created with Hollywood and focused on batch processing and alpha channel based effects (screenshot). It offers about 30 different effects incl. drop shadows, elliptic crop - "which would need several steps on other similar programs" - drawing options for brushes, text, lines, ellipses, boxes, and arrows.

The author also wrote: "All effects can be applied to images in a freely selectable order in a batch conversion or image joining process. Unlimited amount of images can be joined as a single image. Can save multiple images to a single PDF file."

The program is available under the title link as well as via Grunch. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Hyperion Entertainment: AmigaOS 3.1.4 released
As reported, Thomas 'Thor' Richter and Olaf 'Olsen' Barthel have been working on an update of Commodore's AmigaOS 3.1. Today it has been released - please find below Hyperion Entertainment's official press release:

Brussels, October 30, 2018 - Hyperion Entertainment CVBA is highly pleased to announce the release of AmigaOS 3.1.4 as the biggest upgrade since the days of AmigaOS 3.5 and 3.9.

The new, cleaned-up, polished Amiga operating system for your 68K machine fixes all the small annoyances that have piled up over the years. Originally intended as a bug-fix release, it also modernizes many system components previously upgraded in OS 3.9.

Contrary to its modest revision number, 3.1.4 is arguably as large an upgrade as OS 3.9 was, and surpasses it in stability and robustness. Over 320K of release notes cover almost every aspect of your favourite classic AmigaOS - from bootmenu to datatypes.

AmigaOS 3.1.4 is available as immediate purchase from our direct download section [at the title link] as digital download and will be available shortly as physical set of 3,5" floppy diskettes and machine specific ROM(s).

Hyperion Entertainment CVBA wants to use this opportunity also to thank the great team of developers, testers, translators and other helpers for all their hard work during the recent months. Without them this release would not have been possible. (snx)

Web browser: NetSurf 3.8 (SDL version)
About two weeks ago Artur Jarosik as released an update of his Amiga port of the web browser NetSurf. His port is based on SDL, only the preferences pane is based on MUI, and is not to be confused with the Chris Young's native, Reaction-based version.

Notice of the editorial: The AGA version 3.8 does not run on the Amiga 1200 equippd with Blizzard-1230 accelerator board of our editor Daniel Reimann - it crashes with Guru-Meditation (80000008). According to the developer the M68060-compiler-switch he did use is not compatible with a 68030 processor with 68881-FPU. Besides, the auto update for the AGA version is broken and therefore has to be downloaded from the title link. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Chip-RAM extension: ACE2 by Individual Computers
For a few weeks Individual Computers has been offering "ACE2". This extension adds two Megabyte Chip-Ram to most of the OCS/ECS-Amiga. Because the board contains two components which are not available any more - the 2MB ECS-Agnus-Chip and a PLCC84 adapter socket - the producer has chosen a "progressive pricing model": The lower the availability of ACE2 the more the price increases. The first price was 120 Euro meanwhile it costs about 130 Euro. The maximum price will be 170 Euro.

Hint of the editorial stuff: On the ACE2 a NTSC version of Agnus is used. This one can be switched between the PAL and NTSC mode but always starts in NTSC mode. Therefore this extension was mainly made for users with upgraded Amigas - while booting from disk under Kickstart 1.3 you cannot change the mode so easily. (cg) (Translation: dr)

The player can jump and run but also duck and can activate special skills by collecting pills or magic potion. Besides there are many items to be collected for improving health, getting an extra life or finishing the level.

Trap Runner runs on each Amiga with at least one Megabyte RAM. The game has been developed over seven months and released last weekend at the Function party in Budapest. It is considered to release a commercial collector edition if there is sufficient interest. (cg) (Translation: dr)
