`11.Apr.2022` Robert Smith	Video: DrawBridge for MiSTer in development Robert Smith's project 'DrawBridge' (Disk Reader and Writer Bridge) uses a microcontroller - in this case an Arduino board - to read and write Amiga floppy disks with a standard PC disk drive connected.

`09.Apr.2022`	AmigaGuide magazine: Issue 4 of 'WhatIFF?' published WhatIFF? is an Amiga magazine in AmigaGuide format. Unlike other magazines or journals, WhatIFF? does not deal with games, but is mainly intended for users who want to be creative with their Amigas. As Timo Paul, the creator of the magazine, told us, his original motivation for the magazine was to create something similar to Amiga World, Amazing Amiga and Amiga Report: "There is a lot of software that people want to use but the guides are not there and WhatIFF? offers a helping hand to those who want to use creative software such as Lightwave and Brilliance. As the magazine grows with writers I hope to offer more guides on other software. In addition each issue offers tutorials on how to fix your Amiga, update, or use in unique ways." Topics of issue 4: Reviews: AmiGemini, AmiKit Pi, USB mouse adapters, firmware update of TerribleFire 1260 accelerator board Guides: Second part of Lightwave 3.5 tutorial, tutorial for Brilliance, tutorial for OctaMED, fixing an Invidision AGAMk2cr, creating a Gemini Capsule Interview: Chris Edwards (PiMiga) (dr) [News message: 09.

`08.Apr.2022` Indiegogo	Illustrated book: 'Demoscene - The AGA Years' near completion About a year ago, the first illustrated book about the demoscene, 'Demoscene - The Amiga Years', was completed, covering the years 1984 to 1993. The second part, 'Demoscene - The AGA Years', which is dedicated to the years 1994 to 1996, has also been crowdfunded. In an update published yesterday, the publishers announced that after some delay not only the content of the book has been written, but also the work on the layout and design of the 468 pages has been completed. Now the proofreading is still pending. Those who did not participate in the crowdfunding can pre-order the book from the French publisher for 35 Euros. (dr) [News message: 08.

`08.Apr.2022`	Diskmag: Jurassic Pack #19, last issue for now After a 12-year break, the 18th issue of the English-language diskmag 'Jurassic Pack', first published in 1995, was released in January 2021 (amiga-news.de reported). Editor Lars 'Ghandy' Sobiraj has now published the 19th issue and announces in the editorial that this might be the last one for good. They would have spent more time chasing people and their promises in the last few weeks than getting creative themselves. This included two intros, several interviews, promised support in the form of articles and much more. And if there is no response even to multiple requests, he can only understand that as disinterest. He laments not only the waste of time, but also the demoralizing effect. In addition, the three-person editorial team would crumble apart peu à peu. Likewise, he would not have expected the ever dwindling interest in Diskmags at the time of the relaunch. The fact is, however, that in contrast to 20 years ago, many people nowadays get their information from forums or podcasts. That's why they're now taking a break and we'll see if the joy and desire returns. The content of the 19th issue: three background songs Report on 'Deadline 2021 Party' Report on 'Polish Summer 2021 Party' Interview with the organizer of 'The Party' Introduction of musicdisk Cheesy Listening Interview with Jochen 'Virgill' Feldkötter (Amiga musician, programmer of scene intros for Windows, developer of demo tools like 'AmigaKlang' Interview with group 'Abyss' (demos, demo tools, games, e.g. Wong Way Driver) Interview with demo groups 'The Union' and 'Overlanders', creators of the demo 'FirST Love' (AtariST) Article on "Proper productions releases management" Interview with programmer 'Sim' about the Amiga demo 'Voyage', created by 'Razor 1911' Introduction of eleven everlasting music productions Report on the local demo scene in south Denmark Interview with the demo musician Peter 'Mr. Pet' Cukierski Interview with the British Amiga programmer 'Galahad' (Fairlight, Scoopex) Interview with Fredrik 'Gnilk' Kling, member of the demo group 'Noice' Article: "Why diskmags have totally gone out of fashion" Article: "Groups are redunant anno domini 2022" Artikel: "Are really all maineditors loudmouths?"
