AmigaOS 4: Instant Messenger SabreMSN, alpha 6
James "jahc" Carroll has published another alpha version of his Instant Messenger for the MSN-network (screenshots: 1, 2).
In this version the preferences menu was added. Additionally the "Connection"-status as well as a dialogue window were added where the user can set several options if he was added to the contact list by another MSN user. Now you can also rename the persons in your contact list. Finally several bugs were fixed.
Porting this program to different Amiga systems is planned but it is supposed to be started if the basic functions were all implemented. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Preview: New games for classic Amigas
Though things have calmed down around Mr. Beanbag (rumor has it that the programmer lost interest) and Super Pumpkin Brothers, some new projects for OCS and AGA Amigas have recently emerged instead:
Annihilation
Annihilation is a horizontally-scrolling shoot'em up for AGA Amigas (screenshot). The developers Underground Arcade promise "parallax scrolling, intelligent enemy waves, awesome power-ups, huge mid-level and end-of-level guardians, [...]" on their web page. The player should be able to make a choice among three pilots, who possess different spaceships. Annihilation's release is planned for 2008, a two-year-old demo can be found at Aminet.
Halloween Nightmare
Halloween Nightmare, which comes from Underground Arcade as well, is about a platform game where the player can slip into various Halloween costumes (screenshot). The release is planned for this year, too, a playable demo version is available since several months. Halloween Nightmare is being developed with the game construction kit Backbone.
Ambermoon Arcade
"Ambermoon Arcade," which is also being developed with Backbone, should become a Golden Axe-style beat'em up, which is located in the world of the RPG classic Ambermoon (Screenshots: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5). A demo version should be released before long. (cg) (Translation: cad)

AmigaOS 4: Origyn Web Browser 1.23 (Update)
Jörg Strohmayer has published another update of his port of the Origyn Web Browser. Changes in version 1.23/1.22:
- 1.23: Enabled font kerning. Looks better, but the cursor offset is wrong in text input now
- 1.23: No longer downloads application/xhtml+xml
- 1.23: The font implementations are build as shared objects now and you can choose the one you want, currently the AmigaOS4 implementation and the embedded bitmap fonts only since the freetype one doesn't work because of a bug in libexpat.so. To use the embedded bitmap fonts, which might make OWB more usable on classic Amigas although I doubt it helps much, rename libowbfont.so to libowbfontamiga.so and libowbfontembedded.so to libowbfont.so
- 1.23: Added FONTXDPI and FONTYDPI tooltypes to configure the font rendering in the AmigaOS4 font implementation and changed the defaults from 72/72 to 84/72 DPI
- 1.23: The bookmark code is in a shared object now, that way George can work on it without having to build the complete OWB himself.
- 1.22: Improved the speed of the font system a little bit
- 1.22: Improved font spacing
- 1.22: Fixed http://crashlog.os4depot.net/cl41
- 1.22: Updated curl-ca-bundle.crt
- 1.22: Disabled some gfx and scrolling optimisations as they sometimes cause gfx errors, for example clearing the top of a page without updating it again
- 1.22: Added bookmarks from George Sokianos' OWB_GUI
OWB 1.23 is an update and requires the previous version 1.21 which is available on Aminet.

AmigaOS 4: MIDI-Sampler Phonolith 1.0
Phonolith is a software instrument created by Timo Kloss for AmigaOS 4, which plays sampled waveforms. It is usable with Horny and other CAMD based sequencers, or just a connected MIDI keyboard.
Starting with version 1.0, Phonolith is free software under the GNU General Public License (GPL) now. This decision was made because the author won't spend much time on this project anymore. He lost the need for it, because he stopped making music on Amiga. Please contact him if you are interested in the source code. A sourceforge.net project will follow.
Furthermore, the MIDI sequencer Horny is free now (but not open-source). To receive a keyfile, please contact the author.
Features of Phonolith 1.0:
- Downmixing to AIFF file
- Receives MIDI notes through camd.library
- Mixer unit with non-linear volume/panning controls and peak meters
- 16 different instruments at once
- ADSR amp envelope (non-linear decay and release curves) for each instrument
- Unlimited number of samples for each instrument, for key and velocity ranges
- Supports AIFF and WAVE sample format (only 16 bit)
- Imports Logic EXS24 instruments (PPC and Intel format)
- ReAction GUI
- Application.library support (for saving settings and registering Phonolith as application)

WinUAE: AmigaSYS 4
AmigaSYS is a pre-installed Workbench for the Amiga emulator WinUAE with many enhancements - similar to AIAB (Amiga In A Box) or AmiKit. Additionally required are merely a file with the Kickstart ROM as well as a Workbench disk of version 3.x at least.
With AmigaSYS 4, it is now possible to install AmigaOS 3.9 without 3.0 or 3.1. In addition, the installers for those three operating system versions were heavily upgraded and support five languages. You can find a list of details on the project page under the title link. (snx) (Translation: cad)

Cinnamon Projects: Tasks for C++-developer
With the "Cinnamon Projects" the author of the SDL-based text editing software Cinnamon Writer tries to establish a kind of private bounty system: In order to speed up the development of programs he offers low amounts of money for the development of single modules or routines to external developers - currently you can earn 100 Euro if you develop a "Printer class" for Cinnamon.
The Cinnamon Projects are financed with the bounties paid for Cinnamon Writer. The finished moduls are intellectual property of the Cinnamon-author as well as of the external developer. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Origyn Web Browser 1.21 and 1.3 (Update)
The AmigaOS 4 port of the Origyn Web Browser (OWB) is now available in version 1.21.
Changes:
- Added a workaround for font releated OWB memory leaks in the AmigaOS 4 font implementation
- Fixed crashlog entries cl25 and cl37
- Speed up text rendering
- No longer uses own mouse pointer
Update: (19:18, 19.04.08, snx)
Furthermore, version 1.3 has been released for AmigaOS 3.x.
Changes:
- Ported the memory allocator used in the AmigaOS4 version to AmigaOS 3.x, requires AmigaOS 3.9 BB 2 (exec V45)
- Added more workarounds for bugs in the AmigaOS 3.x SDL library
- Implemented the font system for AmigaOS 3.x. It's currently limited to the 3 outline fonts included in AmigaOS 3.x (CGTimes, CGTriumvirate and LetterGothic)
- Implemented intuition event handling for AmigaOS 3.x, all keys should work now. Of course text input will always be limited to ISO-8859-1 on AmigaOS 3.x since it didn't support different charsets yet
- AmigaOS mouse wheel, 4th and 5th mouse button events are supported as well, but there is probably nothing for AmigaOS 3.x which can generate them
- Implemented the graphics device for AmigaOS 3.x, requires Picasso96
- Implemented a minimal replacement for the missing ICU libraries (UTF-8, ISO-8859-1 -10 and 13-16)

individual Computers: Delfina - The DSP makes the difference!
Press release Soundcards for the Amiga are continuously popular, but only one soundcard has a freely programmable DSP - a specialized audio processor. With this concept, the Delfina strictly follows the old Amiga idea to do as much work as possible with specialized hardware in order to take load off the main processor. We have taken over the Delfina from Petsoff in 2003, but only published a software update once.
After more than four years, we are especially happy that Axel Schneider has taken over the development of the delfina.library in his spare time since October 2007. The original author Teemu Suikki (Finland) has published large parts of the Delfina software under different open-source licenses. For the first time, we are publishing the source code for drivers of a product that you can still buy in the shops and that is actively developed. Although it seems to be quite fashionable to increase prices for classic Amiga hardware, we don't see a reason to follow that trend. The price of the Delfina "flipper edition" of 129.- EUR (*) is still more than 140.- EUR below the price of the predecessors made by Petsoff.
The new library also allows connecting the Delfina to a 26-pin expansion port of our Zorro cards like Buddha and X-Surf (older models). Crashes that occured especially on fast accelerators and under high DSP-load are probably completely eliminated. There are still some issues when playing back web radio streams with a bitrate of 256 kbit or more that we could not trace back to the delfina library. Find out more in the readme file of the archive.
The software support for the older Delfina cards (made 1999 or earlier) is still in the drivers, but it is not maintained or tested anymore. We recommend the use of a new card made by individual Computers.
Download: DelfLib417b1.lha (133 KB)
Picture archive as addendum to the manual: delfina_pictures.zip (421 KB)
* = recommended retail price including 19% VAT. Prices at resellers may differ. Shipping cost added when mail-ordering. (snx)

Furthermore the speed was increased and you can now open links with the target "_blank" (in the same frame). GIF-animations cannot be played any longer because it slows down the browser too much. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Review: PCI-Board Mediator TX with graphic board Radeon 9200
For the new PCI-board Mediator TX developed by Elbox a first review was published under the title link.
The author is very satisfied concerning delivery components, support as well as functionality. There were only problems with the Radeon graphic board because the model which was chosen by the tester was still not supported by the first driver version. But Elbox published an update of the driver and then it worked. Finally the author had to modificate the Infinitiv tower in order to use the graphic board.

AmigaOS 4: Cinnamon Writer 0.52 (beta)
Press release Cinnamon Writer (CW) is a WYSIWYG writer application under development. The main objective of CW is to be a small efficient word processor with the most often used features seen in other professional word processors (screenshot).
Version 0.5 is much faster than the previous version. It offers most of the basic and most often used functionality expected from a word processor (selectable fonts, font size, text alignment, line space, text color, highlight color, bullets, underline, super/subscript etc).
The documents are saved in RTF format that ensures maximum compatibility with other word processors. At a later stage of development, other save formats will be available.
The icons set used in CW is the work of Martin 'Mason' Merz. (Thank you Martin!)
I am also announcing the coming opening of Cinnamon Projects.
The purpose of Cinnamon Projects is to speed up the development of CW by utilizing some the very gifted coders on the amiga scene.
Since I have come to the realization that writing an application like this single handedly, is near impossible, I have decided to use a larger part of the donations I have received and hopefully will continue to receive, to fund coders who are interested in contributing to the application.
A new section will open on desler.be in the near future where different projects are announced together with the amount of money a coder will receive upon completion of the project.
An example of a project could be a printer class that will handle all the Amiga specific calls required to add printing capability to CW. The prize given upon completion will range from 50-150 euro depending on the scale of the project and of course, the amount of donations I have received.
I haven’t been able to test this software on a classic AOS4 setup, so please let me know if a specific setup is not working. The stability of this version has not been throughout tested and the undo/redo feature is currently not available. Therefore save often and save different versions of your document when using CW!
I really hope that you will find this application useful. Please don’t hesitate to report bugs/crashes/ideas and perhaps give donations/beer on desler.be. Finally... Donate. Scientific case studies have shown that people who donated experienced 33.4% fewer crashes. ;-) (snx)

Amiga Future: New downloads online
Press release: We are about to extend our download section of the Amiga Future Homepage. In 2008 we will double the number of full versions.
We also want to make avaiable PD-software. About 10 GB of additional downloads we want to make available. Since a few days the first 250 disks of the PD-game-set "Spielekiste" are available on the Amiga Future Homepage as DMS-files. Further disks of the set will follow. (We are looking for somebody who has got the disks 701-xxx!!!)
The publishing of the PD-software as well as of the full version take us money. But we hope we can win some new readers for the Amiga Future Print Magazine.
Issue 71 was published a few weeks ago and is available as German and English magazine in our Onlineshop. In 2008 the Amiga Future celebrates its
tenth anniversary. Therefore we have a special offer for you on the start page of our shop.

Web-Browser: OWB 1.1 for AmigaOS 3
Jörg Strohmayer has ported the Origyn Web Browser to AmigaOS 3. This is not a port of the AmigaOS 4-version of OWB but a compilation of the normal SDL-based version of the program.
The OS3-port does not have such improvements like scrollbars or the toolbar. According to the author the program is "considerably slower".
OWB requires AmigaOS 3, an installed GeekGadgets environment as well as a graphic board (if available). Additionally a lot of free memory and a m68k-CPU with 1 Ghz should be there.

AmigaOS 4: WarpOSEmu 16.39 emulates powerpc.library
Jörg Strohmayer's WarpOSEmu is a reimplementation of powerpc.library and allows executing WarpOS applications AmigaOS 4. The author points out that the emulation can only work with programs that are written to be very system-compliant, which is, reportedly, not the case with many WarpOS programs - scene demos in particular -, unfortunately.
Titles that use Warp3D may have problems with Radeon-based graphics cards. Switching to the software renderer possibly puts things right here. (cg) (Translation: cad)
