Frogger clone: Frogger (beta version 3)
Frogger (YouTube video) is supposed to be a 1:1 conversion of the 1981 Konam game (amiga-news.de reported). As the developer reports, the third beta version of the game is technically 100% complete and a small trainer has also been integrated. He was also able to inspire a musician for the project who will compose 20 musical sequences. For now, beta version 2 stays available, since the changes will added to the final version. (dr)

Video: Procedurally generated levels in AMOS
The procedural generation of levels is a technique for creating game worlds in which one does not create each individual level by hand, but uses algorithms to construct the levels programmatically. This allows for almost unlimited variation and can shorten development time (see the explanatory article on the example of Unity).
In his latest video, Rob Smith explains this technique using the example of a future AMOS game for which he has to generate a large number of levels. He also shows how to speed up the algorithm and finally create a simple maze. (dr)

Image Gallery: Update of the "Amiga Graphics Archive"
The "Amiga Graphics Archive" is dedicated to all kinds of pixel graphics created with the Commodore Amiga between 1985 and 1995. According to the operator, quite a number of remarkable images were created during this period, which he believes should not be gathering dust on some hard drive, hidden in an extra level in a game that is never played, or on a PD collection disk that is almost unknown. These graphics should be accessible to all by presenting them on his website.
Somewhat deviating from his own credo, pixel graphics by the Danish graphic artist Facet have been added in the latest Update. (dr)

Joystick repairs: Replacement PCB for the Competition Pro Mini
The "Competition Pro Mini" is a miniaturized version of the well-known Competition Pro joystick. Thanks to their small size, the micro switches used in these joysticks aren't really up to the mechanical stress they're put through while playing games - which is why many surviving Minis are only partially functional these days: Some of the directions or fire buttons are not working anymore.
Unfortunately, micro switches with the exact same dimensions as the ones used in the Competition Pro Mini are no longer available. To solve this problem, a user has now designed a replacement PCB, that can use "F4T7-UL" micro switches from SAIA-BURGESS which are still available (example). The required files to manufacture the PCB have been published on Github in KiCad format. Once assembled, the PCB is a 1:1 replacement for the original component. (cg)

AmigaOS 4: Update to Heretic II nearing completion (Update)
Since the beginning of the year Steffen Häuser has been working on an update for Heretic II for AmigaOS 4, which among other things should support HD modes. At the Amiga38 a preview of the game was already shown at the stands of Alinea Computer and HunoPPC (amiga-news.de reported). As he now informs us, he worked on the game again after the fair and created a new version. The most important changes:
- der gl4es-Renderer läuft nun ca. 20-25% schneller als die auf der Messe gezeigte Version
- der MiniGL-Renderer hat nun Multitexturing, was ebenfalls zu einer Performanceverbesserung führt
According to tests on his AmigaOne X1000, the new version now runs at 108 fps at 1024x768. UHD resolutions are also supported, which then requires an X5000.
Update: (16.10.2023, 19:45, cg)
Steffen Häuser confirms (German) in a forum posting that the OS4 version of Heretic II will only be available as a boxed copy for full retail price in a newly designed box (German), there are no plans for a free or cheaper update for registered customers. According to Häuser, a boxed edition was requested by his betatesters and physical distribution would result in a larger payment for his (quote) "quite time-consuming work" on the AmigaOS 4 port.

Amiwest: Presentations from Amigakit, A-EON and ExecSG
This weekend, "Amiwest 2023" took place in Sacramento, USA. As usual, all presentations from the show were streamed live over the internet - the recordings of the streams from the first and second day are available on Youtube. The following is a brief summary of the important points discussed in the presentations from Trevor Dickinson (A-EON), Steven Solie (ExecSG) and Matthew Leaman (Amigakit):
Dickinson's presentation was the same one he gave at Amiga 38 a week earlier: A summary of all A-EON hardware projects so far followed by announcements of Enhancer 2.3 and the virtual RTG driver Virtio. LibreOffice - last year's presentation claimed (again) that it was to enter betatesting "soon" - was not mentioned at all.
Steven Solie's very short presentation did not go into the developments around ExecSG that were announced last year - like multicore support or an update for the X1000 firmware 'CFE'. Instead, he introduced himself as the "Release Manager" for A1222+, listed the companies and people involved with that project and explained that Amedia France is working on a recovery USB stick that will contain all components required for setting up a new A1222+ system - like up-to-date drivers for modern graphics cards.
Matthew Leaman introduced Amigakit's latest hardware project and demonstrated its graphical user interface: A600 GS is a supposedly ARM based console that emulates various Amiga setups (pictures of the case and controller), the device features HDMI video output, USB ports and two (optional) 9 pin connectors for Amiga joysticks and mice. The screenshots below show the graphical user interface used to configure the emulation and run games, applications or scene demos.
The operating system running on the emulated Amiga is a patched AROS Kickstart ROM coupled with recompiled components from the Enhancer package. It also features a completely new icon set which can be seen in the screenshots below. Endusers can install their own Kickstart ROMs, RTG support is "in development". System updates will be installed from the net, a custom version of Amigakit's "AMIStore" is planned but will not be ready at launch.
Leaman hopes that the device will be available in early 2024, back in August it was stated that Amigakit is aiming for a price of "less than GBP 100".

Floppy disk images on PC and Mac: Greaseweazle Tools 1.16.1 (update)
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. Version 1.16 of the Greaseweazle Tools provide the following changes:
- New formats: pc98.n88basic.hd, zx.quorum.800
- HFEv3: Fix import of some images
- CAPS: Support CT Raw files
- D88: Support multiple disk images in one file
- Kryoflux: Allow sample clock to be specified
Update: (19.10.2023, 21:18, dr)
Meanwhile version 1.16.1 is available. Changes:
- Revert to emitting two revolutions of flux from codecs (fixes SCP output)
- SCP, Kryoflux: Allow #revs to be specified in output (eg. name.scp::revs=3)
(dr)

Video: Show report Amiga38 by Robosaurus Spielothek (German)
Dominic Ortmanns from Robosaurus Spielothek writes (translated from German): "I consider today's video to be a great moment in my work so far. On the one hand, this is due to the topic. After the relative success of my Amiga37 video, I didn't want to let myself down for the Amiga38 and pulled out all the stops. It has been a long time since I had so much fun making and editing a video.
Secondly, I consider the Amiga event that took place this year on October 7 at the 'Kunstwerk' in Mönchengladbach, hosted by Markus Tillmann, to be the Rolls Royce of retro computer shows in Germany. Even though I haven't been attending it for that long, it has made a very big impression on me the last two years.
As to be expected, Amiga38 was both a great success and a great event. You can see my contribution to this phenomenon here. It's the first video since a long time that I made an effort to make. Included are many interesting interviews with different big names of the scene, a comprehensive insight into the trade show happenings and all that flavored with the Robosaurus special sauce.
Also, I invested some time in this video to include people from my team who usually only do magic behind the cameras. I hope you enjoy our contribution to Amiga38. And of course I am very happy about feedback and if you share the video. If you are really convinced of your own work, then you are of course happy about the communication about it." (snx)

AmiWest 2023: First photos
Robert Bernardo is documenting again the AmiWest 2023 taking place this weekend and has published first photos. Among those from friday the Ranger prototype can be seen.
A separate gallery is dedicated to the prototype of the A600GS from AmigaKit, an apparently ARM-based "Game System", which in the basic version with 2 GB RAM and without DB9 joystick connectors should cost less than 100 British Pounds if possible.
The AROS/68k kernel and AmigaKits self-programmed replacement components of the AmigaOS ("System V46") are used. All intellectual property is AmigaKit's own or that of its software partners, such as A-EON Technology. (snx)

MorphOS: Web browser Wayfarer 6.2
Jacek 'jacadcaps' Piszczek has released version 6.2 of his web browser Wayfarer for MorphOS. Changes:
- Added AdBlocker settings with three different data sets
- Improved search vs URL detection in the URL string
- Added "Paste and Go" to the URL string context menu
- New tabs are now being added after the active tab (can be changed in Settings/Interface)
- Added a Font Code Path setting and changed the default to Simple on slower machines. This was previously forced to Complex to allow ligature handling, but could lead to very poor performance when editing text, etc
- Fine-tuned redraw handling while editing text
- Updated EasyList AdBlocker data
- Updated libwebp to address its various recent CVEs
- Updated sqlite, nghttp2, curl and psl libraries

Neues von Alinea Computer: Wodem, KickRom-Flash und KickRom-Progger
Press release: Alinea Computer presents three new products that were presented to the public for the first time at Amiga 38:
Wodem
With the Wodem, you can integrate any Amiga into your WiFi via the serial interface and have access to the Internet via a TCP/IP stack. With the appropriate turbo card or interface card, speeds of up to 115,200 bps are possible. The configuration is described in detail in the manual supplied. The Wodem can be purchased without accessories for 29.95 euros.
KickRom-Flash
The KickRom-Flash Adapter (version 1.4) is a programmable Flash-Rom replacement for EPROM components (e.g. 27c400) or Kickstart-Roms in the Amiga computer. Up to 4 Kickstarts (512 kb each) can be loaded onto a module and switched via jumpers or a switch. The switch with the name KickRom-Switch is unfortunately not yet available, but will be released in a few weeks.
In addition to the standard version of the Flash-Rom module, there is currently a special version for the Amiga 600, as mechanical problems can occur there with the standard modules. The programming and deletion of the components is done with the programming device KickRom-Progger. A KickRom flash can be bought for 29.95 Euros. In addition, a programming service is available for customers without a programming device.
KickRom-Progger
With the KickRom-Progger you can program/read Flash-Rom (27C400 emulators) devices up to 1.4 from Alinea Computer as well as commercially available 27C400 devices. The programmer can be operated directly on your Amiga via the serial interface. In addition to the serial interface, the programmer can also be controlled via USB on any computer. The programmer is operated via its own firmware, which is controlled from the computer via a terminal programme and can therefore run on almost any platform.
The device is the world's first programmer that can burn its own Kickstart roms directly on the Amiga. The KickRom Progger can be purchased without accessories for 44.95 euros. Options include a zero-force socket and a serial cable for BigBox Amigas.

Workbench distribution: AmiKit for PiStorm released
In addition to the already existing versions for Raspberry Pi, Windows, Mac and Linux, the workbench distributions AmiKit are now also available for the PiStorm or PiStorm-lite (YouTube video). Ján Zahurančík writes about this:
"It all started 20 years ago... On my Amiga 1200 with Blizzard 1240/40. The journey has continued on WinUAE, though. Today, it's come full circle, back to where it all started - The Amiga.
AmiKit, a pre-installed and pre-designed package with over 400 classic Amiga programs and games, is now highly optimized for PiStorm and works best on Amiga 1200 with PiStorm32-Lite with Raspberry Pi 4 (or CM4). Raspbery Pi 3 is also supported. Miminum configuration is Amiga 500/600/2000 with RPi3.
It requires your own AmigaOS 3.2 ADF files as well as the latest hotfix3.2.2.1, Picasso96 driver and Amiga internet connection. Full Roadshow is recommended. The installtion of the required software is automated." (dr)

Demoparty: TRSAC 2023 in Denmark
The probably last edition of the TRSAC demo party will take place from 20 to 22 October 2023 in Aarhus, Denmark. TRSAC is an acronym for "The Real Scene After Christmas". TRSAC was started in 2000 by a few friends from the demoscene who thought that demoparties were too much about games.
Among the various competitions is Oldskool, which is primarily reserved for the Amiga. On the timetable, one can find precise information about the different programme items. (dr)

Arcade classic: Bagman500
Jean-François Fabre ported his SDL-based clone of the arcade classic Bagman to the Amiga, which required SDL libraries and thus a graphics card. In late 2019, he released a real port that directly used the Amiga's chipset graphics (amiga-news.de reported), but required a 68020 processor and was "still slow," according to the author.
Now Bagman 500 was transcoded to 68000 and should run on any A500. (dr)
