Preview video: Doom clone for Amiga 500
KK/Altair is working on a Doom clone for an A500 equipped with 1 MB RAM which can ply real Doom-WAD files. In a video he demonstrates how he uses a Doom editor for creating a part of a level for his engine. Afterwards he tested it (from about 10:20) in an emulated Amiga 500.
The programmer has pointed out that his port has required some fundamental improvements which could cause cause problems, e.g. detecting possible collisions. Therefore levels have to be adapted to his engine and tested.

A1222: Production of "Early Adopter Edition" maybe starts in the third quarter
In the latest entry on his blog, Trevor Dickinson has focused on the negative aspects of the coronavirus outbreak with respect to A-EON and Amigakit: "Matthew Leaman informed me that, due to factory shutdowns, several of his new classic Amiga hardware products have not been shipped or are now greatly behind schedule. A-EON Technology's A1222 early Adopter development and release schedule has similarly been affected and Matthew thinks the delays could push production into the third quarter of this year."

MorphOS 3.13: Hotfix for ixemul.library
The release of MorphOS 3.13 about two weeks ago detected a bug ixemul.library: By default a wrong FPU rounding mode was used. As the developers wrote, "the bug can manifest itself in various ways, one example is "tinny" audio output in various games" like the demo version of Wings Remastered.
The hotfix for the ixemul.library can be downloaded under the title link. After unarchiving it, simply copy it to the WBStartup drawer. If in future a bug fixed version of the ixemul.library will be released the hotfix would not affect it.
