AmigaOS 4: Software performance profiler 'Profyler' for developers
As the author Mike Steed wrote, Profyler "is a software performance profiler - or profiler for short - for AmigaOS 4. It allows the execution speed of the various functions that make up a program to be measured, facilitating optimization of the program to improve its performance.

More specifically, Profyler is a deterministic profiler, which adds code to the program being profiled in order to implement the profiling functionality. It uses the -finstrument-functions feature of the GCC compiler, which means that it only works with C and C++ programs compiled with GCC. It also means that a program must be compiled and then linked with LibProfyle in order to be profiled; you can't profile a program that you can't compile." (dr)

880 kilobyte on 5.25 inch floppy disks: TEAC FD-55GFR 7193-U running on Amiga
The Iranian Siamak Habibzadeh has published a conversion manual at Github, which allows the operation of a 5.25 inch floppy from TEAC on the Amiga. The drive, originally intended for the PC, then stores 880 kilobytes in Amiga format on a 5.25-inch floppy. (cg)

Arcade ports: Demo version of 'Wonderboy', preview video of 'Final Fight'
Wonderboy is to be an Amiga conversion of Sega's arcade classic of the same name. The Amiga version is created with the help of the Scorpion Engine. A now available first demo version, which is called alpha by the developer, runs smoothly from an Amiga 1200. Eine für den A500 optimierte Variante soll in Kürze folgen.

There is already an Amiga implementation of Capcom's Acrade machine Final Fight from 1991, but it is not very popular with friends of the beat-em-up genre. A fan of the automaton is now working on a new implementation developed in machine language, which currently requires a 68020 processor. A video shows the current status, one level and two different opponents have been implemented so far. (cg)

Looking for demand: Zorro II/III graphics card with SAGA
At the title link, in the forum of a1k.org, Gunnar von Boehn (Apollo team) is looking for interest in a graphics card based on the FPGA chipset of the Vampire turbo cards for Amigas with Zorro II or Zorro III slots. In prospect are the known SAGA graphics modes including a full HD resolution at 60 hertz and the new SAGA 3D functions, video acceleration, 16-bit audio and inclusion of the Amiga video signal for HDMI output.

Since the drivers (P96/AHI) were already available and practically all other components were also at hand, the project could be completed relatively quickly if there was sufficient interest to buy one - allegedly even as early as this summer. (snx)
