Arcade-Puzzler: Amiganitzu
Amiganitzu (screenshot) is a clone of the DOS-classic Paganitzu developed by Apogee Software. The Amiga port of the arcade puzzle game is similar to Chip's Challenge and includes all levels of the Shareware version of the DOS-original as well as 10 new sections.

Amiganitzu should run on all Amigas with at least Kickstart 2.0 and is available as LhA-archive and as bootable Disk-image. If there are any stability problems then the author recommends to increase the stack to 50000 Bytes. (cg) (Translation: dr)

TCP-Stack: Roadshow for AmigaOS 2/3 in January, Demo-version available
Roadshow is a TCP-stack which was ported by Olaf "Olsen" Barthels and which is used under AmigaOS 4. About 10 years ago it was intended to release another version for earlier AmigaOS. This project failed due to the lack of a graphical user-interface.

Meanwhile Barthel decided to realise the project without a GUI and instead to explain the text-based configuration files with a manual. Because Roadshow can only be run from the command line shell and the printable PDF reference document which has more than 100 pages the author and APC&TCP wrote that "Roadshow is expected to be most useful for knowledgable, experienced Amiga users rather than for beginners."

The demo version of the stack is limited to 15 minutes and is already available on the website of APC&TCP. According to Barthel the release of the full version is planned for January. The price has not yet been set but Barthel guesses it will be 20-25 Euro for the download-version and a little bit more for the CD. (cg) (Translation: dr)

"Ask Me Up is a video game about general knowledge. The principle is quite simple: 1 question, 4 possible answers" (screenshot). "A "dual" mode is available in L and XL editions: two players compete in turn on the same set of questions." A demo version with 80 questions is available for free.

Puzzle game: G.E.M.Z. 1.1 for all Amiga systems
G.E.M.Z. written by Fabio Falcucci and Pascal Papara is a commercial puzzle game. The goal of the game is to push bricks of the same colour closely together to make them disappear (screenshot, video).

In version 1.1 there are some new preferences. Additionally the programm code was highly optimized:
  • Got several FPS increase in all scenes for the High and Medium detail levels
  • Huge speed up in the Play screen rendering +35% for High and Medium detail levels
  • Fullscreen message was corrected for Amiga, OSX and MorphOS systems (alt/cmd/amiga+enter)
  • Now it's possible to turn on/off the music in the main screen and in the pause screen, this setting will be saved for the next sessions
  • During language selection the you may change the details level which will be remembered for the next game sessions
  • Added Swedish and Japanese translations, fixed english translation
  • Corrected the sprite layers order in LOW and MIN settings
  • Now all musics are encoded using OggVorbis/128Kb, this means that the game size is now around 130Mb (depending on the version), MacOSX PPC is still 480Mb because a bug we are trying to resolve.
  • Speed up in game matrix initial rendering, madness level rendering is much faster now
  • Reduced 20% SoundFX volume

Since November 2012 G.E.M.Z. has been sold for free with all sold AresOne complete systems. If you purchase the game now and later an AresOne you will get back the money for G.E.M.Z. Purchasers of the software bundle A-Live will get a free copy of G.E.M.Z. (cg) (Translation: dr)

PCI-Busboard: Documents for Prometheus PCI released
12 years ago Grzegorz "Krashan" Kraszewski developed for Matay the PCI-busboard Prometheus. Now Kraszewski has made available all files on his website which are necessary for the production of the hardware.

The available firmware is being used in all 250 produced Prometheus-boards. Some years later E3B reworked the original firmware for the project DaVinci - this new firmware can also transfer DMA.

On amigaworld.net Filip Dąb-Mirowski (Matay) has announced that E3B will make available this updated firmware versions under e3b.de/prometheus/ soon which will include a brief instruction for a firmware upgrade of the Prometheus. (cg) (Translation: dr)

AmigaOS 4: ShowFiles 0.9
ShowFiles formerly known as DisplayFiles is command line programm for AmigaOS 4. "It displays a sorted and text-formatted list of files, drawers (dirs) and soft/hard-links on disk or other storage medium. It will also display their additional information such as size, date, possible comment, executable header type (68k or ELF program), protection-bits."

Changes in version 0.9:
  • Added switches for FILES, DIRS, and LINKS, it is also possible to intermix them.
  • Changed the name for "EHead" to "Exe" (and "eh" to "e").
  • Fetching of exe-headers -> little faster (cleaned up some code there).
  • Updated Install/Uninstall scripts further, to be more safer and error resistant, and typos fixed.
  • Updated the documentation some further, except for documenting what's new.
  • Output slightly changed.

amiga-coding.de: Developer forum for all Amiga-Systems
Olaf Schönweiß has established a forum which is to serve as discussion basis for developer of all Amiga systems. According to Schönweiß the site is supposed to be "neutral and to support all systems and the cooperation". "Emotional" discussions are not desirable. It is based on utilitybase.com which is not available anymore.

Schönweiß asks all former developers registered at Utilitybase to upload their Utilitybase archives on archive.org to amiga-coding.de because he is not allowed to do it himself. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Hyperion: AmigaOS 4.1 Update 6, automatic updates in future
The AmigaOS 4-team has released update 6 for users of AmigaOS 4.1. Registered customers can download the update from website of Hyperion. The update does not include any bug fixes but is supposed to be the basis for future updates:

Instead of collecting minor updates and relasing them in big packages ("Update 5", "Update 6"...) new versions of AmigaOS-components in future will be available immediately via the simple package manager "AmiUpdate". A new preferences tool called "Update" will manage the automatic updates. Additionally a new "Update software..." menu item on Workbench now launches AmiUpdate.

"Only registered users will be able to download updates. To register your AmigaOS serial number go to www.hyperion-entertainment.biz. During the registration process a user name and password will be created. You will be prompted for your user name and password the first time you try to access the update.amigaos.net server with AmiUpdate." (cg) (Translation: dr)

Podcast: Giana Sisters Tribute (BitJam-Episode #161)
Jürgen Beck wrote: Even little girls are getting old one day. Once upon a time, in 1987 to be precise, we played around with two cute girls on C64 and Amiga: The Great Giana Sisters. A great jump 'n run game in the style of Mario, featuring fantastic music by sound magician Chris Hülsbeck.

Now, 25 years later, a new game with the twin girls has been released. After a successful Kickstarter campaign Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams was brought to life by Black Forest Games. With music by Chris Hülsbeck himself, Fabian del Priore and the metal guys from Machinae Supremacy plus awesome graphics where you can switch fluently between the beautiful landscapes and dark places this download title captured our hearts by storm.

Now we want to celebrate the 25th birthday of the Giana Sisters together with the creators and you! The BitJam podcast episode #161 features not only the original Giana theme, but also music from the DS version of the game, which was released in 2009, the brand new Twisted Dreams game as well as some cool remixes. Jump, dash and twirl together with us through a beautiful soundscape! (snx) (Translation: dr)

MorphOS: Scriba 1.3.0 (China-Update)
Scriba is a simple text processing software which is still in development by Carsten Siegner. Since version 1.3.0 it is possible to write Chinese characters with the help of a input method. For this it is important to know how these Chinese characters are transcribed in Pinyin. Additionally an Unicode-font is required which can display Chinese characters.

Scriba now also has an ARexx-port with three commands. Complete ASCII-texts or unknown characters in UTF8-code can be added with the Rexx-command to an existing text.

Individual Computers: ACA 1220 and ACA 1232 available
In July Individual Computers advertised Amiga 1200-extensions. Now they are available in different shops (AmigaKit, Vesalia, Alinea):

The ACA 1220 is available in three different versions. All are equipped with 128 MB RAM and a 68020-CPU which are used processors and therefore can show traces of usage. The board has a clockport which can be connected to a "realtime clock" module which is also available.

The ACA 1232 is equipped with a 68030 and 128 MB RAM and currently can be only ordered with 33-Mhz (a CPU with 25 Mhz and with or without MMU is planned). (cg) (Translation: dr)

Windows: WinUAE game management iGame for Windows (beta version)
The game management "iGame for Windows" is inspired by the WHDLoad extension of the same name and makes it possible to start a game with WinUAE (Screenshot).

Features currently include:
  • Recursive folder scanning for your games.
  • Storage of all game titles found in a local database.
  • Use screenshots, music and extras from GameBase Amiga, if found. They are displayed on the right hand side for each game.
  • Launch the selected game in WinUAE (with the selected UAE configuration) with a simple double-click.
  • Music playback using the bundled XMPlay player, or alternatively DeliPlayer2 if it’s found installed.
  • Search for selected game in well-known related websites (LemonAmiga, HOL).
  • Live filtering of games from the list, depending on your search text.
  • Multi-disk game handling (utilizing the DiskSwapper feature of WinUAE).
  • Option to show only unique game Titles (default) or all files found.
The following features are planned to be included later on:
  • Support WHDLoad games (scanning, launching, metadata), besides just ADF/ADZ/ZIP/IPF.
  • Fetch game metadata from various websites and store them locally for each game.
  • Edit game metadata like screenshots, music, selected UAE config, information etc.

The driver for A2000-style Real Time Clock modules (popular also on A1200 CPU cards) had bit-rotted so far as to be useless. It was rewritten as machine-independent msm6242b(4) driver, with amiga-specific frontend under old a2kbbc(4) name. (snx) (Translation: dr)

AmigaOS 4: X11-environment AmiCygnix 1.2
Edgar Schwan has published an update of his X11-environment AmiCygnix. Both basic packages "AmiCygnix-Base" and "AmiCygnix-Tools" were updated to version 1.2.

Generally it is a bugfix release.

Changes in the reworked packages:
  • The system does not freeze any longer when quitting the X-Server. No crashes when quitting the clients

  • The preference tools "myX11Setup" and "myX11SetupLight" were reworked and a Hispanic catalogue added
  • The printing tool "lpr" did not open a status window in AmiCygnix version 1.1. Fixed. Additionally it is now possible to abort a printing process
  • The content of an USB mass storage could not be listed in a file-requester. Fixed
  • The web-browser NetSurf could not load local files - fixed
