The Register: Ideas for explaining an Amiga mystery wanted
A strange case the "The Register" has reported under the title link: an Amiga 4000 only then were transfered files from an external SCSI harddrive if the clock program was running - with a certain window size and placed on the top right-hand side of the Workbench.
The editor, Richard Speed, himself has given a possible explanation: "I suspect the issue was a weird DMA conflict between the DMA-based SCSI controller and the rest of the system with the clock application rendering adjusting the timings just enough for it to work." But he has enrouraged the readers to give similar theories in the comment section.

Platformer: Hydra Castle Labyrinth
Artur 'Arti' Jarosik has ported the Metroidvania clone "Hydra Castle Labyrinth" to AmigaOS. His version supports joysticks and (CD32-) gamepads, runs in windows or fullscreen mode, scales the screen solution as required and supports "save points". An Amiga equipped with a Vampire accelerator board is recommended.

Jump'n Run: Mini Zorro as Boxed Edition or free digital version
"Mini Zorro" (video) has been available for some weeks and is another part of a series of Backbone games released by José A. 'Jojo073' Gonzáles and Zoltar under the labels 'Amiga Wave' and 'IronGate' (e.g. Mini Swat). Upon request the digital version is available for free via e-mail. Additionally you can order a physical boxed edition with disks, manual and comic as well as stickers.
A price for the boxed edition has not been given. Other games of the developers could have been purchased for 10 Euro. Mini Zorro requires OCS and at least a 68020 processor. For a better performance, a slightly upgraded A1200 is recommended.

Music game for two mice: AmiSaber
AmiSaber (video) is a clone of the virtual reality game Beat Saber - a rhythm game taking place "in a surrealistic neon noir environment and featuring the player slicing blocks representing musical beats with a pair of contrasting colored sabers." The Amiga port is controlled with two mices and includes all necessary information and tools for creating levels with individual music. The game is supposed to run on an Amiga 500 with harddrive but the author recommends a better setup which is not specified.

Crowdfunding: Jim Power CD32 with CD soundtrack
Jim Power: The Lost Dimension in 3D (DOS and SNES, 1993) is a successor of the platform game Jim Power: In Mutant Planet which was also released for Amiga. A team has purchased the rights on Jim-Power and now via Kickstarter is financing a port to the Nintendo Entertainment System as well as a first release of the Sega-Genesis version which was recently found.
As an added bonus among others the Amiga version of the first part of Jim-Power will be republished - as CD32 game, including the CD soundtrack of the TurboGrafX port from that time. Each of these five different versions of Jim Power can be separately bought. For a pledge of 50 US-Dollar you will get a physical version of the game on CD or Cartridge including a "colored box and colored instruction manual".

Game previews: Project Horizon and DaemonClaw
"Project Horizon" is a "a top-view tactical action game that obviously takes place on the dark side of the moon." A preview video published in January provides a first impression of the level of development. Project Horizon will require 2 MB Chip-RAM and a harddrive. The game will be available for free including all sources and level editors.
"DaemonClaw: Origins of Nnar" is supposed to become "a new side scrolling action game." The development was started on the Amiga but currently it is developed on modern platforms using the construction kit "Construct 2". The completed game then will be back ported to the Amiga. The developers of BitBeamCannon regularly publish updates and preview videos on their Youtube channel.

Encryption: AmiSSL 4.5 (AmigaOS 3/4)
The encryption protocol AmiSSL has been updated to version 4.5. It is "the first public open-source based release of AmiSSL".

- Fixed a number of memory leaks, particularly where multithreaded applications would leak memory over time (although freed on exit).
- All binaries now stripped of debug symbols, improving load time.
- Fixed installer issue for MorphOS (#43).
- Modernized and improved the https example source code.
Minor improvements/fixes.

New browser for MorphOS in development
Jacek 'jacadcaps' Piszczek from the MorphOS team who recently developed the IMAP capable e-mail client Iris now is working on a new browser for MorphOS which is not a further development of Odyssey but a completely new approach based on the latest version of the HTML rendering engine Webkit.
Piszczek explained that the browser will probably require 1 Gigabyte RAM and will not support video playback or the "webinspector" mode of Webkit due to the limited processor and graphics card performances of the computers currently supportd by MorphOS. Already now the project has high demands on MorphOS and the SDK, among others errors happened in the compiler and the TCP stack as well as Exec and others components had to be adjusted. Therefore public beta versions will not be released before the availability of MorphOS 3.14.
In a discussion on morph.zone the developer publishes short status messages. Today for the first tima a screenshot has been published.

Networking solution: Amiga Explorer 8
Press release: Cloanto, Amiga software developers since 1986, released today version 8 (8.0.1.0) of Amiga Explorer, the Amiga-PC networking software that first saw the light in 1997. New features include:
- Windows File Explorer Ribbon support
- New "AE" command line tool (type "AE Help" for options)
- Protocol extended to query server-side Amiga Explorer software and operating system details
- New changelog and early access update checking functionality
- Support for additional PC serial port speeds, also with manual entry of speed setting where possible
- Improved usability in Offline mode (namespace extension remains functional, exposes ReadMe.txt file)
- Improved Setup Wizard
- Worked around an issue whereby the serial Break command was not transmitted properly during initial setup through some USB serial interfaces
While remaining compatible with older versions, the namespace extension for Windows was rewritten from scratch to support the latest Windows 10 features, including the File Explorer Ribbon.
Previous versions of Amiga Explorer were capped at 128 kbit/sec on the Windows side, reflecting original UART APIs. This was not a limitation when used with original Amiga hardware, which had similar constraints. Nowadays however, inexpensive USB serial interfaces for PCs can be connected to Amiga third-party serial expansions, resulting in transmission speeds like 230.4 kbit/sec, 460.8 kbit/sec or even more. Amiga Explorer 8 introduces support for programmable baud rates, meaning that with a high-quality null-modem cable and the appropriate serial port hardware, speeds that are 5-10 times higher than before can be achieved.
Under the hood, additional changes including a cross-platform "core" feature set that also powers the new command line mode, were made to better support future extensions and improvements.
Upgrades are free to all Amiga Explorer and Amiga Forever Plus Edition customers. Amiga Explorer is also free to try under a shareware license. Registration is appreciated, but many features, including the new command line mode, are fully functional in trial mode.
Traditionally, updates to the Amiga (server) side of Amiga Explorer have also been made available via an "AExplorer_Update.lha" file on Aminet. This
file too has been refreshed. As the new Amiga version includes functionality to support updates originating from the Windows (client) side, Amiga-side
patch releases like this one could become less necessary in the future.
The full Amiga source code and the Windows "core" source code is available to a closed group on GitHub. Windows core features include the data exchange features and the command-line user interface, i.e. everything that is needed to implement, study or support the full protocol. The Windows namespace extension and its installer are not currently part of this set. The plan is to extend the open source availability once an improved version of the data exchange protocol reaches stable status. (cg)

Source text for Amiga-SNES cross assembler TAsm published
TAsm is a cross assembler which can create binaries for the SNES using the Amiga. In order to test the results on the console, a backup solution for Nintendo's hardware is required which can load games from disks. If a "Super Wildcard" is used, then the results of the assembler can be directly transfered to the destitaion device using a cable.
TAsm at least requires a 68020 processor as well as Kickstart 2.04 or higher. An executable, the source text (DEVPAC format) as well as a short documentation you can find on the website of the author under the title link.
