AROS news
AROS is an open source project to implement a portable version of
AmigaOS V3.1. Read here how the project advances:
Aaron "Optimizer" Digulla has updated the
credits.
Still not everyone is mentioned but it's better than before :-)
He also fixed the URLs which were broken by the new web site
scripts.
Georg Steger fixed the strange keyboard problems (holding the right
Win key down for a while would suddenly print /'s on the screen).
He also added some printer- and datatype-specific header files.
They are needed
in the DataTypes.class. And he fixed a bug in the EOF handling of
the console.handler.
Fabio Alemagna improved flushing of Output() and
Error(). The shell will now print the boot and other
messages only when needed. PIPEFS: supports AbortIO()
now. He also added <Ctrl-C>-Handling to a lot of DOS functions
so that they will abort a pending IO if the task receives a signal
while waiting for the IO to complete.
Stefan Berger fixed two bugs in layers and intuition. Child windows
can now be moved with opaque running. He also implemented a helper
function which checks if a layer is the frontmost among the
layers that have the same relationship to the root layer and another
one which checks if a layer is hidden by any other visible (or invisible)
sibling with the same priority. And he fixed typos in rand48-functions
in c.lib. (ps) (Translation: rh)

I will systematically categorize them. You'll find a small preview at the title link,

LaunchHTML was just released on the Airsoft Softwair homepage.
With LaunchHTML HTML files can be displayed by just double

the system's default browser and displays the file. The system's

uses. LaunchHTML is extremely useful for use on CD-ROM.
It was

AudioLabs: Update pack for ALPS realtime plugins
There are new plugins for ProstationAudio. Read the original message:
Apparently some graphic board models don't handle masked images correctly.
A update pack for ALPS plugins is now available to fix display problems
with images placed on plugins' front panels. It uses a different masking
method, now working with any model. Updating is as
simple as decompressing the archive to the plugins drawer and rebooting.
ALPS is the name of a well-known European chain of mountains, situated
not far from here. ALPS is also the acronym for AudioLabs Plugin System,
a data exchange protocol for software DSP modules designed to let
ProStationAudio users expand their systems without limits.

Virus Help Denmark: xvs.library v33.34 and VirusExecutor v22.21
A new update of the "xvs.library" has been released today. The code for removal of the
virus "Hitch-Hiker 5.00" should be there now. We got a helping hand from a former
antivirus programmer (Georg Hoermann, known from VirusZ & xvs.library).
We know that there have been a lot of updates of the xvs.library in the last 14 days, but
the Hitch-Hiker 5.00 virus was very tricky, and Georg Hoermann wrote this to me:
> - Quote start
It's never nice to see such ugly viruses, and the polymorphic code was
definitely the "finest" I have seen so far. With the knowledge of several
years, you can handle such a beast much easier, but Jan Erik will certainly
learn a lot about those things when he continues with xvs.library.
> - Quote end
And I was the one that 'draged' the programming of the xvs.library over Jan Erik's
head, when Alex van Niel did not have the time to update anymore. VHT-DK
needed a programmer they could trust 100% with viruses, and there was only one,
so I used all my 'charm' to talk Jan Erik into it. And I'm happy that we have Jan Erik
to update the xvs.library....
Info about the new update of xvs.library:
Name: xvs.library v33.34
chive name: xvslibrary.lha
Archive size: 58.341 byteses
Release date: 6 September 2001
Programmer: Jan Erik Olausen
News for v33.33:
- Replaced the Hitch-Hiker 5.00 detection/removal code.
Thanks to Georg Hörmann for writing a better code ;)
- Cleaned up some code. Got some tips from Georg.
So the library is a bit smaller now...
- For developers: Added XVSLIST_DATAVIRUSES to xvsCreateVirusList()
so that you can view data viruses as well.
Download shortcut: http://home4.inet.tele.dk/vht-dk/amiga/xvs/xvs.htm
Remember if you use VirusZ, VirusChecker, Safe and VirusExecutor you
must update the xvs.library to have recog for the latest viruses.....
Also a new update of VirusExecutor, here is the news:
Name : VirusExecutor v22.21
Archive name: VirusExecutor.lha
Archive size : 285.082 bytes
Date: 6 September 2001
Programmer: Jan Erik Olausen
News in v2.21:
- Fixed font problem in the memory monitor.
- Fixed some gfx out of range when using VE on a Workbench screen
with a display width < 645.
- Starting to write a disassemble function in the memory monitor.
It don't know all the commands yet, but it will ;)
- You can now use the arrow keys or the numeric key pad to scroll
in the monitor window.
- Added 'Show data virus' to the menu. Requires xvs.library v33.34+

Most kernels downloaded from the developers page have such.
On my homepage you can download kernels up to version 2.4.8 each as both IDE and SCSI versions.
On this occasion I would like to thank Mario Frenzel for his effort.

AmiBench will be four years old soon
Press release:
Did you know that AmiBench will be 4 soon?
Alot's happened over the last 4 years.....
I still remember the day that AmiBench went live, September the 26'th 1997. I remember very vividly on christmas day of the same year, clicking on the refresh button in Ibrowse and seeing new adverts everytime I hit it.
I couldnt even begin to re-count how many emails I've had from well wisher's over the year's and how many friends I've made for life through AmiBench being what it is.
I guess there's alot to be said for the Amiga Community. I am sure that some of you know that I've not used a real Amiga in about a year (I just kept blowing them up..), Even through I dont have an Amiga, I'm still here... AmiBench still goes on, and I live in somekind of vain hope that maybe this year We'll be able to release version 2 of AmiBench...
I've long since given up guessing on when (if?) AmiBench 2 will go live, I don't know. All I do know is that We try our best, but not having the resources that we need to dedicate ourselves to making it happen in 3 weeks means it takes ages to finish. All I can say is sorry guys!, it'll happen one day...
Ugh, this little post sounds really depressing... Sorry :(
Anyway, We usually celebrate AmiBench's birthday by holding somekind of Quiz. This year I've sadly not had time to approach anyone and arrange anything. Is anyone interested in giving away some gifts for us to use as birthday prizes?
If so please do drop me a mail as soon as possible!

Motorola has announced an important breakthrough at developing of semiconductor-materials: The producer succeeded in putting gallium-arsenid-transistors in a narrow gallium-arsenid-layer which grows on a silicon-wafer. This breakthrough is supposed to enable new chip generations with combined silicon- and light-issueing transistors - with it cheap optical fiber-network-solutions are supposed to be enabled.«

Repulse Soundcard does not support Movieshop so far (update)
Carsten Siegner writes:
As you can read in the amiga-news.de news from 30.08.01 a new Toccata-emulation was
announced as the only emulation to work together with Movieshop of the VLab-Motion.
Unfortunately I have heard from Alien Design today that the 'Repulse' does not work
with the program Movieshop. Because the developers do not have a VLabMotion you need
to test the functionality.
I have offered help to test the software so it could be done in some time.
Update 06. September 2001:
Stefan Sommerfeld,
programmer of the Repulse Toccata emulation, posted in a comment to this message:
This message is wrong in some sense. The MovieShop support was almost finished and
will be available on our homepage
this very day. Since a couple of weeks tests with MovieShop have been done and
except for some little features every thing works quite good, already.
Anybody wanting to test the new Toccata emulation now, should download the new
drivers. Of course bugreports are very much welcome.

Warp Emulation Suite: WES Version 1.0
Hitman/Code HQ is pleased to announce the release of
WES v1.0.
WES (Warp Emulation Suite) consists of a master controlling program,
WarpKickstart, and a suite of emulation engines, which allow you to
emulate a large number of machines. As time goes by, more and more
engines will be added to the suite. It currently supports six, most of
which are currently related to MAME, as follows:
WarpMAME - Based on v0.37 Beta 16 of the PC sources
WarpMAME Classic - Based on v0.37 Beta 5 of the PC sources
WarpNeoMAME - Based on v0.37 Beta 16 of the PC sources
WarpNeoMAMEClassic - Based on v0.37 Beta 5 of the PC sources
WarpMESS
WarpNeoPocott
The reason for there being two versions of MAME in the Suite (WarpMAME
and WarpMAME Classic) is that MAME is getting bigger and slower all the
time, and is moving to a 16 bit only screen mode system. This will make
it too slow for our old Amigas. So WarpMAME Classic was born. Play your
old favourite games using WarpMAME classic and the latest MAME games
using WarpMAME - probably quite slowly until the AmigaOne comes along! :-)
WarpNeoPocott is an early and quick port of a Neo Geo Pocket emulator.

Article: CNN ... Amiga isn't dead
CNN: "Surprise: The Amiga isn't dead... technically. Although Commodore
is defunct, an Australian company called Amiga Inc. is still updating the
Amiga operating system and has created specs in hopes of finding friendly
manufacturers to release the first new Amiga hardware in six years. A
small but loyal fan base of Amiga nuts is holding its breath."

MPEG: Frogger V1.66
Frogger can be downloaded from http://frogger.rules.pl or http://highantdev.de/frogger/.
Please note, that audio is disabled in 68k version, due
to bug I could not find. As soon as I've fixed it, version
with audio enabled will be released. MorphOS
version is also almost finished.
- Video layer 1/2 decoding.
- Audio layer I, II and III decoding. Now also with very fast decoder in 68k version (through mpega.library)
- AC3 Audio decoder.
- Fast video & audio playback.
- Intelligent frame skipping.
- Overlay support.
- Fast C2P for AGA.
- Direct CGFX video memory access routines.
- Asynchronous disk reading.
- Video scaling on both CGFX and AGA.
- Support for reading VideoCD disks.
- Support for PSX movies and audio.
Look here for all current known bugs and on the future-page for features to come up.
1.66 pre 1
- fixed deadlocks after seeking. (damn, seems like this bug is still there)
- optimized video decoder (up to 10%). on the other hand, there was some changes in demuxer,
which causes slowdown. overall result: 0%.
- added TRACKSELECTION option (shows gui to vcd track selection, default no gui - start
playing first track immediately).
- changed minimal window size. it is now calculated based on system gadget size.
- fixed bug in vcd code, which caused crash if specified device could not be opened.
- fixed problems with slider (small know size at beginning, and slider movement).
- changed mpeg-audio decoder. completly new routines, layerII is as fast as before, layerIII is 2x
faster. there is no FREQDIV 4 (if specified, 1:2 division is used, ie. FREQDIV=2).
- AUDIOQUALITY works with this decoder (previous versions supported AQ only in 68k
version). default is HIGH. LOW and MIDDLE are the same. This decoder fixes also some
problems with LayerIII decoding.
- new ac3 decoder. faster, more reliable.
- fixed problems with multiple tracks vcds (lost of synch when starting new track). the same bug
appears on movies joined with join or mpegjoin, seems to be cured also).
- If user tried to play finished movie from beginning (SPACE key) deadlock occured if audio was
enabled). fixed. Hoppefully this also fixed deadlock with LOOP when audio is enabled.
- Slider size/position was wrong, when movie was on VCD/CDI media. fixed.

PCI: Grzegorz Kraszewski about the Prometheus bus
Grzegorz Kraszewski, Matay, talked about the status of the Prometheus bus on
the Prometheus mailing list. The current firmware is unidirectional, meaning
that the Prometheus can act as PCI master and Zorro-III slave, only.
After a firmware update the bus can be bidirectional. Then the master PCI board
can access the Amiga hardware. That means that the Amiga hardware acts like
a PCI board for a G4 PPC card.

Printer-Spooler: PrintManager V39.32
PrintManager v39 is a so called printer-spooler, it intercepts all printer. device calls to the
parallel-/serial.device and saves the printer specific raw data to a file. This way, programs sending data to the printer
don't have to wait for the slow printer to continue. PrintManager also gives you some control over the data sent to the
printer. You can even print files directly from inside PrintManager using the datatypes-system.
'PrintManager' also can be configured to make the spooler catch printing commands
directly sent to the parallel or serial device.
Changes:
when changing the screenmode or screenfont of the workbench screen, PrtMan closes and
reopens its window, now. This feature requires OS3.9.
Features:
- caches only printer.device calls
- can cache all calls to parallel-/serial.devices
- allows to exclude certain tasks from spooling
- nice gui which works with proportional fonts
- files can be printed from inside Printmanager (uses datatypes.lib)
- works with datatypes.library v45 (v45 recommend, not required!)
- own FAST parallel.device (registered version only)
- localized
- after reset/crash unfinished printings are recovered
- delayed printing
- print count function
- allows to redirect printing to another device
- upto 10 devices can be spooled

This tool does some crude but useful memory profiling. It works only for VP
apps at the moment and only profiles application memory (i.e. memory that a
developer asks for and frees). It does not cover system memory such as
pixmaps, etc.

Game: Earth 2140 Update
"Some people reported problems running the game from CDROMs connected to
their BlizzardPPC/CyberStormPPC SCSI controllers, getting "phase mismatch"
errors. This version fixes the CDDA code to support those controllers too.
In addition to that we have fixed some problems regarding the speed
setting within the game. So if the game is too slow now, just move the
speed gadget up again - it's better than the other way around, as before."

Swiss local store AMIGALAND closing down
Marianne E. Vokinger wrote:
For health reasons I, Marianne E. Vokinger, holder of AMIGALAND in Switzerland,
unfortunately have to finally close down the local store AMIGALAND after 9½ years
of business.
I will appeal to keep existing contacts and to go on working for the dispatch. But until
the entire liquidation was done and I'm of somehow stable health again it quite sure will
be October 2001 for me to able to be active again. I'm very sorry to not having another
option and I'm often remembering the 'GOOD OLD TIMES', these days.
I would like to thank all of my customers both at home and abroad for they have been faithful
for many years, as well as my distributors! Also a special thank to you, Petra, for you
already let me off the hook on the Neuss show :))
Who knows, maybe we will meet again on some show :-)
I wish you much success further on.
Marianne E. Vokinger / AMIGALAND

Image processor SViewIV: New ImageFX loader/saver modules
Andreas Kleinert writes:
There's a new version of the SViewIV ImageFX loader/saver
available for download on my WWW site.
It now allows to save images as well (previously only worked
as loader), the loading process is much more efficient and
less memory consuming and support for saving of paletted
(imagefx-rendered) images has been added.
This module requires a SViewIV keyfile to work.
