Cloanto: Amiga Forever 2014 with Personal Paint 7.2
Today, version 2014 of the complete emulation package Amiga Forever has been released - as usual in three editions. Among other features, the new version 7.2 of Personal Paint is included, which has been edited to also compile for AmigaOS 4.
Changes:
- All Windows versions now come with a Windows Installer download (no need to burn or mount an ISO image to access the installer, or to wait for postal delivery)
- New Build Image feature (Tools menu of Plus Edition), to create personalized ISO images (burn to CD or DVD) and portable environments (e.g. to run from USB storage). This is similar to the "old" Amiga Forever media, except that the content can now be updated and customized
- Support for third-party "RP-Image" templates, to generate bootable content etc. (documentation is available)
- New Restore System Files feature (Tools menu) to reset shared components (Amiga ROM and OS files, system RP9s etc.)
- New RP9 thumbnail provider for Windows is pure eye candy. This accompanies new and faster Open, Edit and Convert to RP9 commands accessible directly from File Explorer, to offer a better content experience outside the player
- Set personal rating for any title (not just cataloged ones)
- New visual Screen Clip Editor, for easy adjustment of Amiga screen mode settings
- WinFellow is now available as an additional RetroPlatform-enabled emulation plugin. You can click any compatible title and select "Play with/WinFellow", or select plugin priority and additional options in the Amiga Forever Emulation settings
- Brand new Personal Paint 7.2 preinstalled in Workbench 3.X environment
- Updated AROS and other content
- Enhanced RP9 Editor, with new media mount options and dozens of new features
- Integration with social networks for "Now Playing" updates, manual posts and screenshot uploads
Owners of Amiga Forever 2013 can update for free. (snx)

Playable Demo: Multiplayer Coop-Shooter "Chaos Guns"
"Chaos Guns" combines the team of four independent characters from "Hired Guns" with the the bird's-eye view from "Alien Breed". The developers describe the released preview as tech-demo, which still has several bugs but gives an impression of the basic game play.
The engine of Chaos Guns as well as the used programming language ("PowerD") are still in development. Therefore the game has rather high hardware requirements: An AGA-Amiga and at least a 68040-processor. Before launching the game, the screenmodes for intro and game have to be set with the prefs-utility. For playing the intro-music, the dbplayer.library has to be copied from the "support"-folder into the LIBS:.
