`08.Jan.2005` Holger Krefting (ANF)	Tales of Tamar: 3D drivers for Radeon cards anyone? Martin Wolf from the Tales of Tamar team is searching for a 3D driver for Radeon cards to develop this medieval MMP fantasy RPG played via e-mail further. He wrote: "This is a call for help to all developers in the Amiga market! For the time being our developers are among other things busy with the realization of a 3D map for the Amiga. Under the title link you can have a look at some of the first screenshots of an early Amiga beta version that is being developed for now on an Amiga 4000/040 with Cybervision 64/3D. Though we own some Pegasos computers with Radeon cards there does not seem to exist a 3D driver yet for this system that is made available to developers. It's for sure that an Amiga 4000/040 is to slow to develop a good 3D map on it. So our question is: Is there a 3D driver for Radeon cards? Is anybody right now developing a 3D driver for Radeon cards? And if such a person exists: would this person possibly be willing to put it at our disposal for the development of the "Tales of Tamar" 3D map for the Amiga or Pegasos? (Alternatively we would be ready to distribute the driver via Eternity if such an interest should exist.) At this time the card is fully functional only under WinUAE with Warp3D emulation or via software renderer. Systems with Voodoo or Permedia2 cards we do not own."

`08.Jan.2005`	New poll: Which operating system is your workhorse? In our last poll we asked you about your judgement of the Amiga's future and wether you would perhaps be ready to invest once more in an "Amiga" (respectively a clone). The results of this poll can be found here. In our current poll (title link) we are interested in the operating system you are using privately most: AmigaOS 3 on a real Amiga AmigaOS 3 on an emulator AmigaOS 4 MorphOS AROS A combination of 1-5, e.g. OS4 or MorphOS at home, OS3 on a laptop or at work One of the systems named under 1-5 in conjunction with another system (Windows, Mac OS, Linux...) The OS I use most has nothing to do with the Amiga (Windows, Mac OS, Linux...) The actual result can be found here, while we explicitly point out that the results aren't representative in any way.

`01.Jan.2005` Amigaworld.net (website)	Amiga Demoscene archive: number of productions reaches 430 The Amiga Demoscene archive contains by now a number of more than 430 productions. The latest new entries so far are: Profanity/Darkside Hyper/Focus Design and Scoopex Das EFX/Scoopex Lech/Freezers Torque/Scoopex The Sign/Scoopex Voyage/Razor 1911 R.o.m/Essence Death Trial/Mandkind Wicked Sensation/TRSI We will smash u/TRSI 2998z/Darkage Toltec 9/Subspace The logo gallery contains 112 entries. Leading in the charts is (as it is since its first listing in the A.D.A.) Planet Potion; on the second and third place are Megademo 8 by Kefrens and 4k Big! by Ephidrena. For all interested in the creation of Amiga demos there are discussions in the A.D.A. forum. (snx) (Translation: wk) [News message: 01.

`29.Dec.2004` ANN (website)	AROS: Latest state of the TCP/IP stack development By the title link there is a forum thread at AROS-Exec, which contains information about the current state of the TCP/IP stack development for AROS and a screenshot. The latter shows the browser Mosaic and a simple webserver, Cheetah. An e-mail client is in development. According to that thread there are two stacks under development now. One developer goes for the TCP/IP bounty and develops a SANA2 compatible driver. That stack might, like Roadshow, become an AmiTCP heir and accordingly build on the bsdsocket.library. The second version is a port of LwIP by those both developers who contributed the screenshot. Currently only loopback is working, but a tap/tun driver for the Linux hosted version of AROS is close. Here, the bsdsocket.library is a regular, disk based library. The first call of that library leads to the start of the stack task and programs may access by the bsdsocket.library the network. But the driver will be a different one. (snx) (Translation: ub) [News message: 29. Dec. 2004, 19:12] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]
