AmigaOS 4: Fractal generator Fractals For SketchBlock 1.5
Andy Broad has released version 1.5 of his commercial fractal generator plugin for Sketchblock. Changes in this update:
- Themeing: if SketchBlock Lite has been purchased from AmiStore, Fractals For SketchBlock will adopt the current theme
- Smoothing: Iteration based colouring modes can now be smoothed, given even transition between colours
- Repeating Palette Mode: This new colouring mode uses one colour from the palette for each iteration step, giving greater control by allowing the user to create there own colour transitions. Works best with longer palettes with gradual colour changes (unless you want a stripey look :-)
Users who have already purchased a previous version can download the update for free from the website or the Amistore. (cg) (Translation: dr)

AROS: AEROS beta version 8 for Raspberry Pi (free version)
Pascal Papara's Linux-based AROS-distribution AEROS for the small computer Raspberry Pi now is available as public beta version 8 (video). Registered users can download the new version under the title link. As usual the free version does not include the lx-command for launching Linux-programms from the Shell or the Wanderer and is available in the indieGO!-Appstore.
Changes:
- Better compatibility with different SD-cards (8 GB or more is required)
- Supports now Raspberry Pi model B+ and A
- Changed theme for Linux app to one with less hunger for ressources
- Epiphany webbrowser with HW-accelerated HTML5 (YouTube is working, HTML5 games as well)
- Latest Debian Wheezy system files
- Enabled AROS network stack at boot so games and software requiring this will work now (for example Abuse)
- Removed old unnecessary stuff
Pascal Papara has changed his Ebay offer for the new Raspberry-Pi models. He ships MicroSD-cards with adapters for the old models.
If there are any problems concerning the speed of downloads from his Appstore, he recommends to edit the chunk size in the file "app-dlm.prefs" using a text editor. Instead of using the default setting of 64, the figures 128, 256, 512 and so on can be checked out.

Meta compiler: PortablE r6-14-07-2013b (beta)
An update for PortablE has been released which is a fix for the latest Software Development Kit (SDK) of AmigaOS 4.1. Most likely AmiDevCpp will not compile programms for AmigaOS 4 until this compiler is also adapated to the new SDK.
Christopher Handley's meta compiler PortablE is an enhancement for the programming language Amiga E and translate it into other ones with "the aim of being portable across many platforms."
In this release 6, graphics, sound, music & GUI modules have been added. Additionally there is a PortablE-forum. First of all PortablE supports AmigaOS 4, MorphOS and AROS, partly AmigaOS 3.x and rudimentarily Windows.

- Icon.library has been updated to 46.4.399
