More graphic designers wanted for the Shoot'em Up "Megalospirit"
"Megalospirit", a Shoot'em Up for Windows, Mac OS,
Linux, MorphOS and maybe AmigaOS 4, is under development
since 2003 (screen shots: 1, 2, 3, 4). The
game requires OpenGL and SDL and uses a screen resolution of
800x600 pixels. The engine runs under Windows, Mac OS
and Linux yet.
The current team, Jérôme "Polluxe" Davoine (code), Olivier
"Haploo" Gonneau (music) and Thierry "LorD" Philippe (gfx), is
looking for one or two more gfx dsigners who may design sprite
or (tile
based) landscapes. If you interested, you may contact the developers lord @ lordfpx . com.

MorphOS: Reggae B veröffentlicht (Update)
Grzegorz 'Krashan' Kraszewski notify a new class is now added to Reggae -
it is fir.filter used for audio signal filtering. The code is highly
optimized, so even very long filters (2048 taps and more) can be performed
in realtime even on G3 processor. Some routines are written for AltiVec,
but MorphOS 1.4.5 kernel doesn't have AltiVec turned on, so routines can't
be used yet (but they are there, tested and waiting for a new kernel).

Pegasos: AmigaOS and CD32 loader
Marcel 'Frostwork' Unbehaun has compiled an AmigaOS and CD32 loader, by means of which the Pegasos II can boot into the respective Amiga environment. By default, an inserted CD32 CD is booted directly.
The Amiga emulation is based on E-UAE and requires appropriate Kickstart files (from the CD32 by default). In addition, you need a Torrent client in order to download. You can obtain details on the range of functions and the installation under the title link.
