`10.Jun.2018` Andreas Rösner (ANF)	Game: Full version of Mini Swat available Andreas Rösner wrote: Three months ago a demo version of "Mini Swat" was uploaded to the Aminet. According to the developer duo of 'Amiga Wave', now the full version is available. The game was developed by JosÃ© A. 'Jojo073' GonzÃ¡les and Zoltar Estrayk. They also wrote the games "Brus Li" and "Else we get mad!". Again the game was written with Backbone. The programs Deluxe Paint and ProTracker were also used. Compared with most of the Backbone games, "Mini Swat" is not a simple jump'n'run but a top-down-shooter like "Crack Down". The game requires an Amiga equipped with ECS/OCS and 1 MB RAM. Interested players will get "Mini Swat" by e-mail for free from the developers using amigawave@gmail.com. On YouTube you can watch a video. (snx) (Translation: dr) [News message: 10.

`20.May.2018` Amiga.org (Forum)	FastCache040+ 1.8 FastCache040+ is a patch for the 68040 and 68060.library, which replaces the functions CachePreDMA() and CachePostDMA(). The replacement functions are noticeably shorter and promise a more efficient management of the Copyback cache for the DMA. "While every system will have some CPU performance loss under DMA conditions, the new functions keep this performance loss to a bare minimum." A MMU is required. Tools like GigaMEM or VMM which provide virtual memory must not be used. And as the author also wrote: "Do NOT use this patch with any code which uses the MMU to write protect or remap modified data structures!...Remapping a mirror image of the Kickstart ROM with the MMU is OK!" Users of a Phase5-68060.library first should run FixMapP5 before starting the patch. (snx) (Translation: dr) [News message: 20.
