Lua-Interpreter with arbitrary-precision arithmetic
Version 5.2.3 of the interpreter for the programming language Lua was copmpiled by 'Thorham' using arbitrary-precision arithmetic-support.
AmigaOS 3.x and a 68020-processor are required. It does not require a FPU or the ixemul.library. Loading dynamic libraries still was not implemented in this version.
The programm can be started using the Workbench or the command line. In the command line you have to add the parameter "-l mapm" in order to use the maths library for the arbitrary-precision arithmetic.
Example code:
mapm.digits(100)
a=mapm.sqrt(12345)
b=mapm.sqrt(54321)
print(a*b)
c=mapm.number(1)
d=mapm.number(3)
e=c/d
print(e*d)
Commands like mapm.sin or mapm.cos also can be used.

Individual Computers: RapidRoad USB starts shipping on October 20
Press release: The new High-speed USB host controller "RapidRoad" by Individual Computers will start shipping on october 20th, 2014.
RapidRoad uses the USB Stack Poseidon, which we have purchased as a source code license back in october 2011. Now we're making use of this license and fill a huge gap in the market of Amiga hardware that has existed for a few years now. RapidRoad is based on a High-speed USB host controller chip that has not been used for the Amiga before.
Although the ISP1763a can be considered the "little brother" of the chip that has been used on the fastest USB controller to date - Deneb by E3B - it can keep up with its performance: If the X-Surf 100 is operated in Z3 mode and a high-end accelerator is used, transfer rates from USB mass storage devices can exceed 7 MBytes per second.
RapidRoad can also be used for the "smaller" Amiga models, which replaces the famous "Subway" controller by E3B. Many older Amiga models are showing timing glitches on the clockport interface when larger amounts of data are transferred, so we had to develop a special interface that can safely deal with these timing glitches. This development has consumed lots of time and money, so we've decided to offer RapidRoad in a cheaper version that has the clockport interface deactivated: This version can only be used on the X-Surf 100 networking card.
Starting today, RapidRoad can be ordered in three different versions with different included cables. Please mind that if you want to pay with PayPal, you may get an error message where no real error has occured. Before you try again, please check your PayPal account: Most of the times, the order went through OK, and only the instant payment notification from PayPal did not reach our server. If the transaction is shown in your PayPal account, everything has worked out right. We're already working on a solution to this problem. (snx)

Amiga-Emulator: FS-UAE 2.5.19dev
Frode Solheim's FS-UAE for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and BSD is based on WinUAE and can be completely controlled with a joypad. Since the last stable version released in March (2.4.1), so far only developer versions have been released.
If you use FS-UAE for emulating a PPC-Amiga, you should also update the plugin to version 3.3.0qemu2.1.0.
Changes in FS-UAE 2.5.19dev:
- Restore kickstart ROM when CSMK3/CSPPC/BPPC maprom is disabled.
- New PPC lock implemented, fixes occasional PPC lockup.
- Fix crash during PPC reset (missing lock when memory regions were updated).
- Stop PPC CPU before resetting Amiga.
- Floating point fixes for PowerPC hosts.
- New options cpu, fpu, mmu, changes to how CPU is configured.
- Defaults for fpu, mmu, cpu speed, cpu accuracy, blitter mode now automatically depends on specified (or implied) cpu option. Example, cpu = 68040 will automatically enable 68040 FPU (and MMU), set fastest possible mode, less compatible CPU and enable waiting blits.
- A3000/A4000 models now use waiting blits by default (was immediate).
- Fix reset problem while PPC CPU is active.
- Workaround for Hexagons Joystick Adapter (name is a single non-ASCII letter).
- Workaround for SDL 2 XInput Controller names with #x in the name.
- Recognize --version and --help arguments.
- The bitmap fonts are also now loaded from fs-uae.dat.
- Don’t add RTC module on stock A600, A1200 (exp) defaults to MSM6242B.
- Fixed loading CD into drive from CD image list (full path wasn’t resolved).
- Added new boolean option uaenative_library.
- Updated emulation core from WinUAE 2900b19.
- Fixed launcher net play GUI (broken in dev versions since the move to QT).
- FS-UAE Arcade: Fixed bug when using two identical joystick devices.
- FS-UAE Arcade: Fixed bug preventing joystick hats from being usable for navigation.
- FS-UAE Arcade: Added quick workaround for configuration of “XInput Controller #x”.

New features:
- CyberStorm PPC and Blizzard PPC board emulation, uses QEMU PPC CPU
emulator
- CD32 Full Motion Video cartridge emulation. (For example Cannon
Fodder CD32 intro movie and standard VCDs are supported)
- Popular accelerator boards emulated (Blizzards, CyberStorms, Warp
Engine, TekMagic, A2630), including on-board SCSI if available
- More SCSI expansion boards emulated (Fastlane, Oktagon, Blizzard Kit IV)
- Multiple SCSI controllers can be active simultaneously
- A590 XT hard drive emulation
- Show on screen message when disk or CD is inserted or ejected or input
device is autoswitched
- Added null serial port mode that connects two WinUAE instances running
on same PC
- Fastest possible CPU speed mode is now available with cycle-exact mode
- Immediate blitter is available in cycle-exact modes
- 68040/060 with more compatible emulates instruction cache, MMU supported
- 68000/68010 + 32-bit address space is supported
- Optionally game controllers can be kept active when WinUAE does not have
focus
- Implemented secondary Z2 RAM board, for example 6M Z2 RAM + 2M Z2 RTG board
combination is now possible
- Added "history" menu to filesystem, hardfile and tape path selection
Updates:
- Programmed chipset display modes accurate improved
- Uncompressed CHD harddrive image write support
- Implemented previously unavailable small Z2 RAM board sizes (64k to 512k)
- Z3 boards automatically use original address space if JIT direct is not
enabled or with JIT direct if host has enough address space (64-bit Windows)
Fixed bugs:
- 68060 with "Unimplemented CPU emu" checkbox ticked: 68060 only unimplemented
instructions were not emulated normally
- Screenshot with D3D shader filter enabled always took filtered screenshot
- SCSI CD READ CD command only worked with audio tracks if track was number 1
- Hard reset didn't reset map rom loaded KS ROM data
- AGA sprites in borders were clipped incorrectly in some situations (2.8.0)
- Autofire always on mode crashed

USB-Adapter for input devices: Ryś
In June, first information was provided, now it is official: The USB-adapter Ryś made in Poland is supposed to make it possible to use an USB-mouse, an USB-joystick and USB-joypad with an Amiga - without having to install additional drivers.
Ryś includes a 16-Bit micro-controller which interpretes signals of connected USB-HID-devices (mouse, joystick and joypad) using an internal USB-stack and then emulates an Amiga-compatible input device to the Amiga. It is not necessary to install a driver. The adapter is connected to the mouse or joystick port. Firmware updates can be installed using a "bootloader" mode which is not explained in detail.
Ryś is delivered in a simple connector housing. It is also possible to use it together with an A600 but obviously a (mechanical) adapter is required. Apart from that the adapter is compatible with all Amiga models. According to the website the development was completed. Information about the price or availability was not available.

Amiga-Emulator: FS-UAE 2.5.18dev (Update)
Frode Solheim's FS-UAE for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and BSD is based on WinUAE and can be completely controlled with a joypad. Since the last stable version released in March (2.4.1), so far only developer versions have been released.
Changes in FS-UAE 2.5.17dev:
- Initial support for magic mouse / virtual mouse
- New option mouse_integration (boolean) (Setting it to 1 implies cursor=0, automatic_input_grab=0)
- New option cursor (boolean + auto)
- Removed audio_buffer_target_bytes (use audio_buffer_target_size instead)
- Changes to audio buffer fill logic
- Measure fps internally with floating point numbers
- Fixed cyberstormppc.rom lookup when using FS-UAE config file
- Fixed ISO-8859-1 UTF-8 conversion (broke in 2.5.15dev)
- Renamed testing option workbench -> workbenc_disk
- Updated emulation core from WinUAE 2900b17
Known bugs:
- The PearPC fallback may not work properly. Please make sure you are using the qemu-uae plugin (check in fs-uae.log.txt that it is loaded properly) if you’re having problems.
- AmigaOS 4.1 w/Picasso IV => sometimes weird frame rate (~36 FPS)
- When starting FS-UAE from FS-UAE Launcher, accelerator flashs ROM writes are not persistent because the launcher uses a new copy every time
- Booting CD32 with CD inserted works, but inserting later, or eject + re-insert does not seem to work right now
- On OS X, cursor movement is currently not received by FS-UAE when the window is not focused (either something SDL 2 or OS X itself does). This makes mouse integration a bit less useful.
Update: (18:17, 30.09.14, snx)
Meanwhile, version 2.5.18dev is available already. Changes can be found at the title link. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Tracker: DigiBooster 3.1
Press release: DigiBooster 3.1 has been released for AmigaOS 3.x, AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS. DigiBooster 3.1 is available on CD-ROM and as download at the online shop of APC&TCP.
DigiBooster 3.1 follows the traditional tracker's way of making music with an
advanced audio processing engine, and an up-to-date MUI based graphical user
interface. It retains backward compatibility with its Amiga ancestor,
DigiBooster Pro 2. On the other hand the program code has been written from
scratch. Its modular design gives it a straightforward path for future
development. Except for versions for classic Amiga computers, DigiBooster 3.1 is also compiled for PowerPC processors, taking advantage of their greater computing power.
DigiBooster 3.1 key features:
- ProTracker modules import. DigiBooster 3.1 can load and play basic four track
modules, as well as multichannel ones, up to 32 channels. Import quality is
significantly better than in DigiBooster Pro 2.x
- Autosaving. DigiBooster 3.1 can save in user defined periods of time and
keep defined number of lately saved versions with autorotation
- Finished block operations in the pattern editor. DigiBooster 3.1 supports
multitrack blocks. Block operations are also available in the ARexx interface
- ARexx commands for loading/importing the module and starting playback
- New languages: French and Polish
How to get an update to version 3.1? The update from version 3.0 to 3.1 is available for free! Updates from older releases (DigiBooster Pro 2.x) are not possible.
Users who bought the download version before just have to login at the online-shop and simply download the current full version archive of DigiBooster 3.1.
Users with the CD-ROM version of DigiBooster 3.0 simply write an e-mail to info@apc-tcp.de with the following content:
- Registration number (not serial number)
- Complete postal address
- Your e-mail address (the archive is about 3 MB in size)
You will get your update immediately via e-mail.
DigiBooster 3.1 system requirements:
- AmigaOS 3.x:
- Minimum: 68020, harddrive, 8 MB Fast RAM, Workbench 3.0, MUI 3.8, AHI 4.x, screenmode 640x480
- Recommended: AmigaOS 3.x, 68060/50 MHz, 16 MB Fast RAM, graphics card, soundcard
- Supports: WinUAE (JIT enabled) with Picasso96 and dedicated AHI drivers
- AmigaOS 4:
- Minimum: AmigaOS 4.0, harddrive, 128 MB RAM, MUI 3.9
- Recommended: AHI compatible soundcard, 500+ MHz processor
- MorphOS:

AROS: Port of version 1.23 of Odyssey web browser in progress
Currently Krzysztof 'Deadwood' Śmiechowicz is porting version 1.23 of the Webkit-based browser Odyssey developed by Fabien 'Fab' Coeurjoly to AROS. Version 1.16 was ported over two years ago but porting the latest version did not succeed due to missing support of certain MUI4-functionality of the AROS-reimplementation of MUI, called Zune.
The goal of the developer is to be able playing html-videos under AROS. An updated HTML-/JavaScript-engine has been already implemented. A first public version will be released together with version 2.0 of the AROS-distribution Icaros Desktop which is announced for mid-October/November.

Paragon clone: Evaluation version of Catagon
After having released several ports, Szilárd 'BSzili' Biró is about to develop his first own Amiga game. Catagon (screenshot) is a clone of the LoadStar game Paragon which was written by Nick Peck for the C64.
Now a first evaluation version - due to a technical problem without music - was released as ADF-file.
