`31.Oct.2005`	MorphOS: Virtual Grand Prix 2 (Update) Paolo 'the Alien' Cattani and Alassoft ported Virtual Grand Prix 2 to MorphOS. The full MorphOS version is now available for download free of charge for personal use, as a thank you to the whole MorphOS community. The MorphOS version has been made possible thanks to a free ODW development system from Genesi/Freescale. It requires MorphOS 1.4.5, the 3D Update and a supported gfx board. Virtual Grand Prix 2 is a modern open-wheeled racecar simulator by Paolo Cattani and his staff at Alas Soft. It is the sequel of the original Virtual Grand Prix developed for the Amiga range of computers. VGP2 uses industrial standards for the simulation of the mechanical components of the car, thus achieving a very high degree of realism in the handling of the virtual one-seater. The MorphOS version of Virtual Grand Prix 2 is free for personal use and can be downloaded from the title link. However, if you think that the software deserves it, you can make a small donation for it. According to the authors, you can consider it as a kind of "sequel-ware" - i.e. if they collect some money, they might port any further development of the game or sequels to MorphOS as well. Update: (19:00, 01.11.05, snx) Andrea Maniero points out that the MorphOS version is compatible with additional tracks that have been created for the Mac and Win versions (you just need to edit the VGP2/config/circuiti.config file accordingly), and with the update pack that gives names, models and textures from the real 2004 F1 championship. The additional packs can be found at the official VGP2 website. For further information, you can also check the old threads in the RaceSimCentral VGP2 forum. (snx) [News message: 31.

`26.Oct.2005` Amigaworld.net (Webseite)	AmigaOne: Driver for the AC97 onboard sound Davy Wentzler acquaints, he build a working AC-97 driver for the onboard sound of he AmigaOne board with the help of Stephen Brookes. Mainboards from recent production runs are not equiped with the Sigmatel chip, which resides left to the AGP slot, any more. The first version of that driver is very basic and offers only replay and a CD in monitor, there is no volume setting or other functions yet, but should be added later on. If you have an AC97 chip and are going to use the driver, the author would welcome a PayPal donation of 5 Euro. Download: via686b_ahi.lha (10 KB) (snx) (Translation: ub) [News message: 26.

`23.Oct.2005` anonym (ANF)	AmigaOS 4: Warp3D picture viewer WarpView The picture viewer WarpView uses Warp3D (and with it, the 3D hardware of your computer) for displaying pictures. The advantage lies in very fast and high-quality scalings (screenshot) that are thus possible, however, the program requires more Video-RAM than conventional picture viewers. Datatypes are used for loading the pictures. Voodoo graphics cards are not supported yet. (cg) (Translation: cad) [News message: 23.
