AK-Datatype: akJFIF for Amithlon
Andreas R. Kleinert writes:
Out of curiosity, I've removed PPC support from akJFIF datatype
and instead did some uae/amithlon-specific optimizations (no native
x86 code yet, though).
Download für V44.140: akJFIF-dt.LHA
Other datatypes/programs may follow. PPC support is gone for now, since I don't
own any PPC card anymore and did not get any Pegasos developer board, either.

Commodore 64 radio commercials
The Commodore Billboard has been updated. This time with 4 English and 4
French radio commercials. All in high quality 192 Kbps mp3. These are all
"donut" versions meaning that the radio station would get a soundtrack
and then add speak themselves. Found on a tape at a Canadian radio
station in Vancouver. The update also includes several C64, Vic20, PET,
Amiga etc. adverts and brochures. Also tons of stuff in the miscellaneous
section...pins, posters, mousepads, telephones and much more. (ps)

Amiga Community by SixK

SixK SDL-game port: Freecraft version 1.17.1
SixK offers ports of SDL-games on its website 'Amiga Community'. The
SDL-library makes the programming of games and other multimedia-products
possible which do not depend on platforms.
The game Freecraft in version 1.17.1 has been now added. It is a
clone of Warcraft. According to SixK the game runs fine on Amithlon (but
there are some colour problems), a little bit slower on an Amiga (040/33)
and should run very well on an Amiga with 060 processor and graphic board.

Tales of Tamar
|
T.o.T.: Amiga-Version 0.43 R13 - Final version will come soon
Version 0.43 R13 is the last but one beta version up to the Tales of Tamar
Amiga Basis-Set! Tales of Tamar is an Internet based round game for Amiga,
Atari, Linux and PC by
Eternity Entertainment Software.
There are only a few days to come until Eternity will accept advance orders
for the Amiga basis set! Tales of Tamar will be delivered in a nice shaped
Euro box with a 64 sites long documentation and three CDs. Should you have
questions concerning the online costs or the game playing then please write
an email to eternity@pride.de.
Since the last version a lot of older bugs have been fixed. Besides this the
soundtrack of ToT has been added which is certainly a highlight. Because of
that a very great thanks to the musician Markus Holler!
Additionally to the soundtrack the texts of research have been added and
string-input-boxes created. Because of that it is now possible to change
the values of the figures boxes via arrow but as well as via keyboard.
This applies for the granary, the trade screen, the barrack and the
diplomacy.
Meanwhile the wars on Tamar become more intensive. Please read the chronicle
to get a survey.
If you are fond of game of roles and games of strategy you should not pass
this game! The testers have played this game for two years and are still
enthusiastic. This game will revolutionize the world of PBEM-games
(PBEM = PlayByEMail).

ANN: Alan Redhouse clarifies coupon promotion
Eyetech speak up about the coupon promotion. I leave it up to you to draw
your own conclusions. "No this is not our promotion - and Bill will post
the clarification details later. But we are shipping A1 boards + OS4-OEM
to dealers (inc Amiga Inc.) and that plus complete systems ourselves.
It is likely that you will probably be able to cash your voucher direct
with dealers - but it is down to Amiga Inc. to give out the details of
how this will work. The main issue - as so many people have pointed out -
is how to avoid the banks becoming the main beneficiaries of what was a
well intentioned user support program (we pay euros15 ~USD15 on every
receipt transaction for example).
Also the law is somewhat different in te US. In Europe you cannot (past
Amiga-related companies excepted!) legally take money off consumers for a
product that isn't yet on general availability. And, to me, $50 seeems an
awful lot to charge for a T-shirt, with an non-legally enforcable right
to an equivalent reduction on an AmigaOne. You will of course (somehow)
get the $50 off - this is just really a problem of how consumer legislation
is inconsistent - and bank charges are inevitable - across the Global
Economy.
That may also go some way to explain why it is Amiga Inc. who receive the
money and not us or Hyperion. Just a few facts to confuse the debate,
Alan" (ps)

... it is hard to believe!!
The story:
On 24th April 2002 an eBay-member (abreviated as Mr. P.) bought a 40
gigabyte Maxtor harddrive. Normally that's quite a simple thing because
this week two pieces of them have been bought which both were not too old.
But the rather extrem aimlessness and the very strange behaviour of this
one customer let this story escalate which you can read on my homepage
under the title link (unfortunately only in German).

Hot: Hard Times for Internet Businesses (Update)
Yesterday Albrecht Kinzhofer brought the above article to our attention. In the article it is described that the Frankfurt credit card service provider EuroCard Systems made a contract with one customer, who does Web shipments. The reason is that there were too many dishonest customers.
Kinzhofer fears that this new development could affect many Amiga dealers, who only have the ability to pay COD, where the costs are usually bundled in with the price the customer pays.
We want to inquire of Amiga dealers, software houses and others, if they have had similarly bad experiences and what consequences have arisen from that.
Update:
In the comments section on the German side there have been many interesting points of view and other bits of information.

AmigaOS XL: Experiences with the H&P Big Tower 1800+ (V 1.27)
In my report, I describe the experiences I have made with the Big-Tower. Version 1.27 of the
report contains several additions in the chapters "AmigaXL", "QNX" and "Software". The
software table has been optically improved. Furthermore, I have a little goody for my loyal
readers. But I won't tell more here.
Note: Amiga-Voyager shows only ads instead of the pictures. Therefore, I still recommend to
use AWeb or disable background images in Amiga-Voyager. A move to a better server is to
come after my vacation. But at that time, amiga-news.de will be on vacation.
I hope that someone has written a report about Amithlon 2.0 until then. ;-)

ScummVM: Trouble with the law
Users of MorphOS- and AmigaOS versions of the GPL engine ScummVM for playing LucasArts adventures are maybe interested in this:
The ScummVM-Team was forced by LucasArts to shut down the site to July, 1st, because of viloation of rights upon the SPU engine.
The eMail from LucasArts and the answer of the project leader of ScummVM, James Brown, is published on the ScummVM developers list (title link).
The arguments in the answer are dealing with an error (maybe LucasArts thought it was "Abandonware" presented for download). Because ScummVM was disassenbled out of LucasArts program code, it is maybe possible that it is illegal in the USA, as a violation of the DMCA (Digital
Millenium Copyright Act). But this is just guesswork of someone. We have to wait for an answer of LucasArts.

Comment from SixK: Here is an early alpha release of RMC.
This MySql client is actually the same as the Mui Mysql Client.
I have put on my old site: sixk.maniasys.com
except it has been written with reaction and is far more stable.
Current limitations are only select work, (insert and update untested,
but may crash) and only 10000 cells are permitted and only 10 columns.
I hope to progress a bit more faster than with MUI since I didn't have
to care with hooks anymore ;)

Amiga Inc.: New Executive Update from 23rd June 2002
A Message to the Community
Bill McEwen - June 23, 2002
A message to the Amiga Community, Present Past and Future:
I would first like to thank all of you who expressed your concern and
shared your support for Gary Peake and his family when you learned of
his heart attack. I can now share with you that Gary is looking forward
to returning to work in the next couple of weeks. He, of course, was trying
to send e-mail from the hospital (at one point, he thought that the beeping
of a heart monitor was the logon sounds of a modem), but fortunately with
his hands and legs restrained, as well as some very effective tranquilizers,
they were able to keep him from the computer. Having said that, I wanted
to personally thank each of you on behalf of Gary and his family for your
kind words and support.
This is an amazing time for Amiga, and the Community. You have all been
patient, more than understanding, and have dealt with more misinformation,
disinformation and rumors than any one group of people should, ever. Yet,
and happily, we are moving forward and gaining momentum. Admittedly, we
have not been very public about many of our plans and activities, to date,
but they are many and we are pleased to be bringing this news to you,
The Community, as well.
One request: If you find this information as positive as we do, share
it with someone. Call or e-mail your friends, Amigans who are interested
but might not be following the news as closely as you and let them know
that change is in the wind: that new, interesting, and most importantly:
REAL opportunities will soon be here for all of us in the Amiga
Community.
We all see and hear hype everyday. We know it well, sometimes quite instinctively.
What you are to read is not hype. These are true and sustainable facts.
Reality. The real skinny. We could not sustain and maintain the hard work
and dedication of the members of the Amiga Family, those people whom are
working so hard to bring you real products, if there were not real opportunities
for us to make a real difference and a real change for the better.
Did you notice the incessant use of the word "Real"? Good.
Because what this Update is telling you is real.
Quite frankly, I enjoy the almost daily updates showing where you can
find Amigas today at work and play. I find it so exciting, and yes, rewarding,
to learn how some are using Amithlon to bring Amigas back into usage,
in places where they have not been in some time. I see new sales, a new
sense of opportunity and a new spirit emerging. A spirit that challenges
conventional thought and challenges us at Amiga everyday. We are here
because of you. Your desire for new Amiga products, your desire that this
platform, this valid, vital and pioneering computing concept should not
be swept aside has fueled our desire to succeed and grow. We have survived
when so many others have failed, because of you, The Amiga Community and
the way you have challenged us to "deliver the goods". Because
of that challenge, we owe these exciting opportunities, this "Delivering
The Future" to you.
Now, let's roll up our sleeves and get started. We have a lot of news
to share with you:
Amiga Party Pack purchasers? This is for you!
Each of you received your Party Pack and in the very near future you
will be able to use the discounts that are associated with your Party
Pack purchase. Each of you will receive an e-mail explaining your options,
and the process is simple:
1. You may purchase the products directly from Amiga at the discounted
price and the products will be shipped to your door.
or
2. Once you have purchased either the AmigaOne with OS 4.0, or if you
purchase just OS 4.0, send us a copy of the receipt along with the front
page of your SDK manual and Amiga will send you back a check for $100.00!
or
3. Let us know the retailer that you will be using and we will get them
the $100.00 so you do not need to worry about it.
Not a bad deal at all. Each of you have had the chance to work with AmigaDE
and many of you have become developers of Amiga Anywhere content, because
of the party pack. Now soon you will be able to get $100.00 back when
you purchase a new AmigaOne system.
AmigaOne and Amiga OS 4.0 ? Update
We were more than impressed with the response to the AmigaOS 4.0 screen
shots and the live demonstration of the AmigaOne boards. We sometimes
have trouble understanding how so many people, people interested in the
Amiga platform and the progress we are making in bringing it back to market
can stay hidden for so long. However, the facts are that we must make
certain production decisions based on projected product sales volumes,
and how quickly we can receive a return on investment. That's Business
101. So, one of the challenges for us is we decide on a number of units
to build and then we see, from web hits and direct inquiries, that there
are 5 times as many people who are interested in the AmigaOne than we
knew were out there. You can file that under "Beyond Our Expectations".
AmigaOS 4.0 is going to include many of the features that were originally
planned for later versions of the desktop AmigaOS. With the need to rewrite
certain portions of the code, the Hyperion team has decided to go ahead
and fold in a great many more of the features that they were planned for
OS 4.1 and OS 4.2 into OS 4.0. Ben Hermans and the team have been doing
a great job of keeping us up to date with screen shots, updated product
features and current development roadmaps. I know that we will have more
updates, regarding real development and feature details from Ben and Hyperion
very soon, and trust me when I say that we are chomping at the bit to
share these details with The Community. Right now, according to our last
conference call with the AmigaOS 4.0 team, at Hyperion, we can see the
exceptional progress and the feature set that is being included with this
release is fantastic. This has been driven by you the Amiga community,
and I know that you will all be very happy.
AmigaOne boards are in the hands of the AmigaOne developers and the integration
work is moving ahead quickly, but with the full realization that rushing
the release to the public will afford no one any real benefits. Alan and
his team at Eyetech has done a great job of "keeping their eyes on
the prize". We are really pleased that the hardware is out there,
and that the Amiga community is going to have the first new hardware designed
for them, with their own operating system, in a long, long time.
These are real Amiga products from Amiga and their associated partner
companies. Yes, it has taken longer than any of us had predicted. We too
have shared your anticipation and yes, impatience, but some things can
only be done one way: The Right Way. Having said that, we know that with
the results that we are seeing, I believe that you will share this with
your friends and other members of the Amiga family with us.
The Amiga Community will soon have a brand new platform. You will soon
begin working with the most sophisticated Amiga Operating System yet developed.
There is great care and attention being paid to Getting It Right, with
the features and benefits that you have told us that you, The Community,
want in a new Amiga. However there is a considerable challenge that goes
along with all of these activities and we are going to need your help
in helping us make a determination regarding certain business decisions
that will be made quite clear further on in this update.
Amiga Anywhere/AmigaDE ? Why are there two?
There needs to be some clarification of these two products: Amiga Anywhere
is a subset of the complete AmigaDE. In speaking with customers and potential
partners we learned that they were looking for the content, and not the
complete DE for their environments. The idea was to have as minimal a
build as possible for these devices. So Amiga created the Amiga Anywhere
Content Engine. This is a series of lightweight products that offer the
binary portable attributes of the complete DE, while delivering the features
and products in a much smaller form factor. Development is continuing
at a rapid pace with these products and we currently offer an Amiga Anywhere
Content Engine for PocketPC, and Pocket PC Phone edition devices, and
shortly for Smartphone, Embedded Linux, and Symbian devices. This will
allow AACE content to run on all of these various products and devices
opening up even wider audience to which we can introduce Amiga.
Development is moving ahead quite well on both the complete DE and AACE,
and you will see some new partner announcements in the very near future.
These are customers who are going to deploy AACE and the associated content
in a variety of interesting products.
There is presently one other question about the current Amiga Entertainment
Pack for Pocket PC devices, and why there is limited content for it. This
is because we were creating a game console type of experience with this
first release, and that it was designed to be closed. The idea was to
pop the card into the device and begin playing a game, without taking
the resources from the relatively limited memory in the device.
There will be an exciting promotion/contest that we will be announcing
later in the week with regards to AACE and the Entertainment Packs. We
assure you, this will be a great deal of fun, and we look forward to introducing
Amiga to several new customers who are currently using PocketPC and PocketPC
Phone Edition devices.
Amithlon Update ? Yes there is an update! (Cue Trumpets!)
We are very pleased to announce that we have entered into contracts,
and yes they are signed, with Bernd Meyer, regarding Amithlon.
In fact we have been testing a new version in-house for several weeks
now, and this is a great product. As you may remember I was the first
person to show Amithlon to the public, at the AmiWest 2001 Show, and the
reaction was simply amazing from the people there. Since then, we are
seeing deployment of Amithlon in many new places where Amiga’s once
roamed and seeing new life for Amiga, with Amithlon. Please know that
we have been working with Bernd for several months so far, and we see
Amithlon as a great product with a long, robust future for both Amiga
and Bernd. You can see the press release here.
The Challenge and the Opportunity!
Now before the naysayers out there begin complaining about this and start
making rude noises, I want to explain the very real situation before us:
Let it be known now that Amiga does not make money on the following. In
fact we will lose money, just as we did on the party packs. However it
allowed us to show to our board and our investors that we should pursue
building a new Amiga computer. Now we are at that same crossroads again,
but in a way that is more complex.
How many AmigaOne's do we build and order?
We need to properly plan, budget, and order for the production of the
AmigaOne. To do that, we need to get a good idea of how many units we
need to order, build and prepare to support etc. You get the idea.
There are those who tell us to plan for 2,500 to 3,500 units. However
over 50,000 people downloaded the OS 4.0 screenshots. These were not 50,000
hits, these were 50,000 different people. Then you have others who tell
me that we are looking at 10,000 units to prepare for. This is great because
there are certain economies of scale, economies that benefit everyone,
that come into play at 10,000 units. You have all seen how chip prices
work: once you are able to order 10,000 of the chip prices you are able
to receive better pricing, and then, prices start coming down. Everybody
benefits.
Then we find that there are currently over 30,000 subscribers to Amiga
related magazines. Add to this the fact that we know that there are thousands
out there who are quietly watching and waiting to learn more about the
release of the AmigaOne before they respond. Then this last week we learned
that there was a very large electronics chain in Europe who is interested
in carrying the line again if there is enough interest for these new products.
So as you can see, this is a real issue before us:
We do not want to come up short on supply for you, the customers, and
yet it is growing quite difficult to judge how many AmigaOnes we should
build. You can tell, as we do, that there is a big gap between the numbers
and we want to make sure that we have the products ready when you want
them, in sufficient numbers, as you should not have to wait. We also do
not want to go into a situation of oversupply, either. We thought about
putting up a survey, but then we know that there are some who will try
and maliciously effect the results and that could, and most likely would,
cause us a whole new subset of problems relating to the release of the
AmigaOne/AmigaOS 4.0.
Therefore, we have decided to have some fun with this survey and we sincerely
think that we have developed a way for everyone to participate and will
give us some real numbers and an ability to better budget and track the
real intentions of the community.
So with no small amount of fanfare, here is what we are going to do:
The AmigaOne/AmigaOS 4.0 "Free
Stuff" Early Promotion (catchy isn't it):
Here is how it works:
Customers who are interested in purchasing an AmigaOne/AmigaOS 4.0 pre-loaded
will be able to purchase a $50.00 off coupon for $50.00! This way we have
a very strong idea regarding how many boards we need to produce.
Not enough you say! Okay, how about this: For every $50.00 discount coupon
you will receive a free shirt announcing to everyone that you are part
of the future. So for $50.00 you get a $50.00 off coupon and a free shirt.
Still not enough? Okay how about this: When we reach 2,500 orders
we will have a random drawing for 4 free AmigaOne/AmigaOS 4.0 systems.
I think that there is more of you out there than that so if we reach
5,000 orders we will give away 10 AmigaOne/AmigaOS 4.0 systems.
That's riiiiight. 10 people who order their discount coupon and
get the shirt will get an entire Amiga One/AmigaOS 4.0 system for... Free.
That's Free. As in Free. No Cost. A former price, dead on the bottom of
its cage. Or something like that.
There are some optimists in the office that believe that there are 10,000
people who are looking to own the first new Amiga system in more years
than we can count, so if we have 10,000 orders we will give away
20 AmigaOne/AmigaOS 4.0 systems and 5 Amiga-enabled cell phones!
One last level: If we reach 25,000 orders Amiga will give away
50 Amiga systems, 15 Amiga Cell Phones, and a trip for 2 to either
Hawaii or Florida.
OK one more - hit 50,000 orders Amiga will give away 100 systems,
100 Amiga Enabled Cell Phones 3 trips for 2 to either Hawaii or Florida.
Over 50,000 and I will come up with something even better, because
at this level we can show the world what you have been telling us for
some time, that Amiga is a sleeping giant ready to awaken and take it
rightful place - being in the lead.
The Cell phones, and the Amiga systems will be shipped as soon as they
are available.
If you do not win in the drawing, you simply take your coupon and wear
your shirt into your local Amiga reseller, and you will receive $50.00
off when you purchase your new system. (Amiga resellers: we will be sending
you the details on how all of this fun and free stuff is going to work).
Now since we need to be placing the orders in the not-too-distant future,
this promotion will run from today until July 7th, with the winners being
announced at AmiWest in Sacramento.
Click here
to get in on the AmigaOne,/AmigaOS 4.0 "Free Stuff" Early Promotion.
So while I know that there are some people who will make rude noises
and fabricate all kinds of specious claims and others will try and use
this as a method to attempt driving the community apart even more, I hope
that the rest of you, the majority of you, can see where, with
this news and this promotion, we can go together. Developers are going
to be watching also to see if this is a system that they wish to continue
developing for, and others who have left are going to be watching to see
if they want to return to development on the Amiga platform. So the stakes
are real. But we can face them together and succeed.
AmigaOne and OS 4.0 are the beginning to a new future, and it is real.
To all of you who are thinking of attending AmiWest 2002, in Sacramento
CA, please come and join in with all of us who will be attending, as I
will be there and it is going to be great fun learning who in the audience
may be a winner. It is also one of my real rewards of my job to meet you,
the members of The Amiga Community. You also never know what I am going
to announce and we could have some real surprises.
Or I just may hang around for the food. :-D
It is time to start having some fun!
Amiga. Isn't it great? (ps)

Bernie Meyer announced Amithlon 2.0 for 1st July 2002 (Update)
Coming to this place on (or around :) July 1st:
A freely downloadable and distributable DEMO version of Amithlon 2.0,
which can be unlocked to full functionality via a personalized keyfile.
Please be patient for just a little while longer....
Monday 24 June 2002 04:30:43 ? Bernd Meyer
You can find the following detailed announcement at Moobunny:
Amiga, Inc. and Bernd Meyer announce licensing of Amithlon 2.0.
June 23, 2002 - Snoqualmie, WA and Melbourne, Australia - Amiga, Inc. today
announced the cross licensing of Amithlon 2.0. The agreement was made with
the author and the inspiration behind Amithlon, Bernd "Bernie" Meyer.
As part of the agreement, Amiga will license Kickstart 3.1 and portions of
Amiga OS 3.9 to be distributed as part of Amithlon 2.0. In turn, Amiga will
actively promote and license Amithlon 2.0 to OEM customers looking for an
Amiga emulator on x86 platforms.
Bill McEwen, Amiga President and CEO, said, "Bernie has been a good friend
and partner to Amiga. I first demonstrated a beta version of Amithlon almost
a year ago at the Sacramento show. Even then the quality of the product and
its potential were obvious to me. Since then it has become a more polished,
a clear reflection of the passion and skills that Bernie brings to the table."
I have also been impressed by the moral and ethical integrity that Bernie
has displayed as he has partnered with Amiga. Too often in the past we have
had to deal with companies who would like nothing better than to split the
Amiga community. Bernie has always had the best interests of the community
at heart and has created a product that we can all be truly proud of.?
"It is with great pleasure that I finally enter into a deal directly with
Amiga", said Bernie Meyer. "This new version, to be distributed with Amiga's
seal of approval, provides customers with a clear indication that Amithlon
is an actively developed product with great prospects. This partnership will
allow users of Classic AmigaOS to use their applications on modern, affordable
hardware."
A demo version of Amithlon 2.0 will be available shortly which can be
downloaded free of charge from the distribution site at
http://www.amithlon.net/demo.shtml.
The demo version may be upgraded to a fully functional version with a simple
keyfile, which can be purchased online.
About Amithlon 2.0
The goal of the Amithlon project was to make AmigaOS 3.9 run on commodity PC
hardware. Unlike other approaches to this problem (UAE, Fellow), Amithlon
provides AmigaOS with complete control over the hardware. Hosted on a
specially modified linux kernel, Amithlon's CPU emulation runs AmigaOS;
All access to graphics, sound, networking and interface hardware is provided
through standard AmigaOS drivers. Amithlon 2.0 is distributed as a
self-booting CD-ROM image.
About Amiga:
In 1985, Amiga introduced the world to Multimedia with the launch of the
incredible Amiga 1000, a revolution in hardware with dedicated audio and
graphics chips and a revolution in software with the first 32 bit, fully
pre-emptive, multitasking operating system. It then went on to dominate
the 1980s and early 1990s, pioneering video and animation and giving rise
to many of the top gaming companies of today. That tradition will continue
with the launch of the brand new AmigaOne desktop computer and its
companion, AmigaOS4.0, destined to set new standards and expectations in
the world of digital living. Amiga can be reached on the web at
http://www.amiga.com.
About Bernd Meyer:
Bernd Meyer is a freelance software designer with almost 20 years of
experience in professional software development. He has studied Electrical
Engineering and Computer Science in Germany and Australia, and is currently
completing a PhD on Image Modeling at Monash University in Melbourne,
Australia. In 2000, two of Bernd's hobby projects got out of hand. One
turned into Glicbawls, a category winner in the 2000 International
Obfuscated C Code Contest, the other into a Just-In-Time compiler for
the Amiga emulator UAE, providing it with much greater emulation speed.
In 2001, Bernd further refined the JIT Compiler for inclusion in Amithlon.
Addition:
Meanwhile, an official press release by Amiga Inc. was released.

Amiga Bastringue: Short report by Rose Humphrey (Update)
A first short report
about the French Amiga event "Amiga Bastringue"
taking place this weekend has been posted on Amiga.org.
Rose "anarchic_teapot" Humphrey writes:
"There was food, there was drink (mostly caffeinated), and there was a working
AmigaOne running SuSE Linux PPC v7.3
There was Naya Design with their rather fetching perspex ATX towers.
There was Alan Redhouse, who was prevailed upon to make a speech and actually
dared to do it in French.
There was a prototype AmigaOne XE motherboard.
We learned that AOS4 has been made to boot on an A1.
There were lots of photos taken, someone is supposed to have filmed the Speech
and the ensuing Q&A session, and all of this, I am reliably informed, will be
on a publicly-accessible website within 24 hours."
Supplement 25.06.2002:

ANN: Discussion on 1 year of Amiga Party Pack
On the occasion of the release of
the Amiga Party Pack a year ago, there is a discussion for Amiga Party Pack
owners on ANN under the title link. Back then, the Pack was published to
celebrate 1 year of SDK. In addition, the release of AmigaOne, AmigaOS 4.0 as
well as AmigaDE for PDAs was announced.
From the ANN web site:
"If you purchased the Party Pack, tell us what you've been doing it with it for
the past 12 months. How did you spend your voucher? What kind of stuff was
included in the updates? Did you enjoy playing the DE games that have been
released over the last 12 months?"

Amiga Arena: "TimeKeepers" full version, "The Prophet" update
A full version of the puzzle game "TimeKeepers" by Vulcan Software and a bug
fix for the 3D role playing game "The Prophet" have been published on the
Amiga Arena web site.
"TimeKeepers" full version
The German HD version of the puzzle game "TimeKeepers I" is available for download with authorisation by Paul Carrington (Vulcan Software Ltd.) .
"TimeKeepers I" is an action/puzzle game in the style of "Lemmings" or
"Humans".
The goal of the game is to steer your 14 police units through the levels.
"The Prophet" update
Last year, the 3D role playing game "The Prophet" by Mark Ford had been
published exclusively through "Amiga Arena" for free download. Unfortunately
the final commercial version contained a bug.
This has been fixed with the update, and "The Prophet" can now be played till
the end.

The program is called "VCDGear" and, according to the makers, contains the following features:
"VCDGear lets you read out MPEG video streams from VideoCDs and convert
VCD files into MPEG movies.
Automatic error correction:
The unfortunately much too often occuring MPEG errors are fixed automatically

Yesterday had our counter on the main page (bottom right) passed the 6 millions
meaning that the main page of amiga-news.de had been visited in almost four
months one million times as we had reached in February 2002 the 5 millions. It has to be said,
though, that without an mercy every click is counted ;-). But still a proud
number as we find.
People interested in the realistic access numbers (every visitor is only counted
once within a set time frame) of amiga-news.de can find the last twelve months

IOSPIRIT: fxSCAN 4.0 feature update and in production
We're proud to announce that fxSCAN 4.0 has been finished and the
master was sent out to the CD-ROM production site last Tuesday.
Though we have a very tight timetable for fxSCAN, we managed to finish
a MorphOS-native version of the fxSCAN PPC-servertask and the
OCR-engine which will ship with fxSCAN 4.0. A native version for
AmigaOS® 4.0 is planned, too, and will be available as patch from our
homepage at the time of completion.
Furthermore another two new GUI skins ("Burning Red" and "Laced Gray",
see fxSCAN-screenshots) and a time-unlimited version of the color
calibration software ICS (with printable manuals!) are coming with
