Floppy disk images on PC and Mac: Greaseweazle Tools 1.2
Keir Fraser's "Greaseweazle" does - similar to Kryoflux - read the magnetic information on a floppy disk independently from the format used and saves as much information as possible to generate a so-called "Flux Level Image" in Supercard format (SCP), which enables reading and back-writing of copy-protected disks (amiga-news.de reported)

The adapter gets connected between a floppy disk drive - e.g. a standard 3.5" PC one - and a USB port of the PC or Mac. Today version 1.2 of the Greaseweazle Tools was released providing the following changes:
  • gw read, gw convert: Allow PLL parameters to be specified
  • Try fallback conservative PLL on difficult tracks
  • Kryoflux: Emit info block with Greaseweazle and frequency details

Jump'n Run: Demo version of NinjFeratu
The busy developers of Amiten Games - among others 'EmotiWorld' and 'CyberPunk Alien City' (amiga-news.de reported) - are in the process of writing another Jump'n Run for Amigas called 'NinjFeratu' using their 'AmiGen' game engine (YouTube video). A demo version is now available, in which you can play the first three levels. As a vampire hunter you try to avenge the loss of your family. The game should run on all ECS-Amigas with 1MB chip ram. An Amiga 1200 is recommended, but not mandatory. (dr)

Sprite/Icon/Map editor: Raster Master V1.2 R58 for Windows 10/11
Raster Master is a sprite/icon/map editor for Windows 10/11 which generates RayLib-, PutImagedata and Map code for gcc, AmigaBASIC, Amiga C, Amiga Pascal, QuickBasic, QB64, Quick C, Turbo Pascal, freepascal, Turbo C, Turbo Basic, Power Basic, FreeBASIC, GWBASIC, BASICA, and PC-BASIC (YouTube video).

Since our last message, the generation of BASIC code has been further improved. A corresponding example code has been published as RPG demo and explained in a new YouTube video. Detailed changes
  • Fixed paint bug - caused the program to freeze if clicking outside of image/grid area
  • grenade constants for Amiga formats c/basic/pascal
  • generates map code loader for basic (dims and loads map code into array)
  • generate constants for modex dos lib lbm/pbm formats (c/pascal)
  • when exporting RES Text Include files RM will add variables and assign width/height (image1.width = 16)
  • Also with PUT image format RM will now build stub that creates an array and reads the image data. so now you can do put(0,0),Image1 and it will display your images without having to write the code.
  • QB64 and Freebasic Raylib support. You can also use the RGB/RGBA data with _PutImage (not regular PUT) if you are using QB64.
