Playable Demo: Multiplayer Coop-Shooter "Chaos Guns"
"Chaos Guns" combines the team of four independent characters from "Hired Guns" with the the bird's-eye view from "Alien Breed". The developers describe the released preview as tech-demo, which still has several bugs but gives an impression of the basic game play.



The engine of Chaos Guns as well as the used programming language ("PowerD") are still in development. Therefore the game has rather high hardware requirements: An AGA-Amiga and at least a 68040-processor. Before launching the game, the screenmodes for intro and game have to be set with the prefs-utility. For playing the intro-music, the dbplayer.library has to be copied from the "support"-folder into the LIBS:.

AROS: 68k-Distribution AROS Vision 2.6.1
In version 2.6.1 of his AROS/68k-distribution AROS Vision, Olaf Schönweiß uses MUI 3.8 instead of the AROS-implementation Zune (screenshot). Additionally, the MMU libraries and components as well as some files for developers (e.g. Pascal and AmiLua) have been updated.

Please note that some of the preferences only work with Zune, mainly Locale and Input. If you want to change these preferences, you can copy the Zune-version of the muimaster.library to Libs: and afterwards return to the original version (all required libraries are in the directory Libs:MUI_Change).

It is also recommended to install the Installer 43.3 of Amiga Technologies in directory C:. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Adapter for Playstation controller: Cyclone RX at ebay.uk
The British company KMTech offers a adapter for connecting a Playstation 1/2 controller to an Amiga at ebay.co.uk. Two push-buttons, autofire and fast autofire mode called "Rapidfire" are emulated. Additionally the controller button R2 (front right down) let you jump in Jump'n Run games.

The additional buttons of a CD32-joypad obviously are not emulated. Cyclone RX is advertised by "works with all models of Commodore Amiga" but using an A600 it might be necessary to adapt the adapter due to the limited space. The adapter costs £24.99 (about 31 Euro) plus about 2,95 Euro for shipping. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Amiga 600/1200: PCMCIA-SRAM-card can be preordered (Update)
In the Polish webshop of RetroAmi you can preorder a PCMCIA-card with 4 MB Fast-RAM for the Amiga 600 and 1200. It is equipped with SRAM ICs with 55 ns access time. This is supposed to boost a standard Amiga - according to SysInfo - to 1,67 MIPS (screenshot).

The card will be delivered at the end of August and costs about 50 Euro.

Update: (17:45, 28.05.14, snx)
Please note that the card is not buffered by a battery, thus any data stored in SRAM will be lost once the computer is turned off. (snx) (Translation: dr)

AmigaOS 4/MorphOS: E-UAE 0.8.29-PPC-JIT-Beta 3
Álmos Rajnai's integration of an just-in-time-compiler into the Amiga emulator E-UAE for PowerPC-systems was updated. The third beta provides a "register and flag optimization fix. You can turn it on in the configuration, just set comp_optimize to true."

According to the author, it is complicated to offer versions for G5-based systems, because he does not own such kind of hardware. The OS X-version now should work thanks to the support of Tobias Netzel. Having no working compiler, for now the MorphOS binaries are not released. (cg) (Translation: dr)
