ReAction GUI for XAD: Avalanche 1.7 for AmigaOS 3 and 4
Chris Young has released version 1.7 of his ReAction-based graphical user interface Avalanche for the unarchiving system XAD, which also supports the xfdmaster.library and can search for viruses using the xvs.library. The developer has written his tool explicitly for AmigaOS 3.2 (but it has also been tested under AmigaOS 4), because it uses a new window.class, so it might not work with older OS3 versions. Changes:
  • Avalanche now registers as a commodity
  • Added Tools menu item "Extract here" for quick extraction
  • Fix initial state of "confirm quit" and "ignore fs" menu items
  • Warning corrections

Floppy disk images on PC and Mac: Greaseweazle Tools 1.2
Keir Fraser's "Greaseweazle" does - similar to Kryoflux - read the magnetic information on a floppy disk independently from the format used and saves as much information as possible to generate a so-called "Flux Level Image" in Supercard format (SCP), which enables reading and back-writing of copy-protected disks (amiga-news.de reported)

The adapter gets connected between a floppy disk drive - e.g. a standard 3.5" PC one - and a USB port of the PC or Mac. Today version 1.2 of the Greaseweazle Tools was released providing the following changes:
  • gw read, gw convert: Allow PLL parameters to be specified
  • Try fallback conservative PLL on difficult tracks
  • Kryoflux: Emit info block with Greaseweazle and frequency details

Sprite/Icon/Map editor: Raster Master V1.2 R58 for Windows 10/11
Raster Master is a sprite/icon/map editor for Windows 10/11 which generates RayLib-, PutImagedata and Map code for gcc, AmigaBASIC, Amiga C, Amiga Pascal, QuickBasic, QB64, Quick C, Turbo Pascal, freepascal, Turbo C, Turbo Basic, Power Basic, FreeBASIC, GWBASIC, BASICA, and PC-BASIC (YouTube video).

Since our last message, the generation of BASIC code has been further improved. A corresponding example code has been published as RPG demo and explained in a new YouTube video. Detailed changes
  • Fixed paint bug - caused the program to freeze if clicking outside of image/grid area
  • grenade constants for Amiga formats c/basic/pascal
  • generates map code loader for basic (dims and loads map code into array)
  • generate constants for modex dos lib lbm/pbm formats (c/pascal)
  • when exporting RES Text Include files RM will add variables and assign width/height (image1.width = 16)
  • Also with PUT image format RM will now build stub that creates an array and reads the image data. so now you can do put(0,0),Image1 and it will display your images without having to write the code.
  • QB64 and Freebasic Raylib support. You can also use the RGB/RGBA data with _PutImage (not regular PUT) if you are using QB64.
