Oliver Wagner reconsiders support of Amiga OS 4.0 and Amithlon
Oliver informs in his "plan" of 30th August 2001 that a new version of
V (Voyager) is to be expected in the next few days. He also says that he
won't develop V not exclusively for MorphOS, but considers AmigaOS 4.0
and Amithlon (the latter with x86-native code) for future versions.

The Register: Amiga flogs Win, Linux Amiga DE player for $20
Tony Smith has written a critial, partly unobjective, article for ´The Register´
on the AmigaDE Player which is offered in the AmigaDE Shop
for $20.
Here an excerpt:
»If Sun couldn't make it happen with Java on the basis of allowing
anyone to write JVMs and give them away for free, we can't help but think
Amiga's plan to make people pay for this stuff has even less chance of
success.
Doubly so when this allegedly advanced technology can only be used to
knock up half a dozen puzzle games of the kind we haven't seen since we
won an Atari Lynx in 1989.«

Virus Help Denmark: xvs.library v33.31
A new update of the "xvs.library" has been released today. In this new
update the xvs.library should detect 99.9% of all 'Hitch-Hiker 5.00 virus".
The programmer Jan Erik Olausen, has been working very hard for the last
10 days to get the recog. right for this very tricky virus.
Info about the new update of xvs.library:
Name: xvs.library v33.31
Archive name: xvslibrary.lha
Archive size: 58.874 bytes
Release date: 30 August 2001
Programmer: Jan Erik Olausen
News is v33.31:
- Improved the Hitch-Hiker 5.00 Link virus.
Should be able to detect 99.9% of this virus now...
Thanks to Jan Andersen and Treveur BRETAUDIERE for the files
- Fixed bug in recog for Bastard Installer 1 File virus
- Added recog for 'EICAR STANDARD AV-TEST FILE'.
This is not a virus, but a testfile that can be found on
http://www.eicar.org/anti_virus_test_file.htm.
The purpose of this test file is to check that your favourite
anti virus program really finds it! Deep inside arhcives etc...
PS! This is a data file, so you might turn on the
'data file checking' in your virus killer.
Thanks to Sami Rautiainen for telling me about this file.
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.....

Virus Help Denmark: Safe Version 16.5
A new update of "Safe" has been released today. Also the programmer
of Safe has very big problem with the new 'Hitch-Hiker 5.00' virus. But
we are working to make recog. for the virus in xvs.library. I have included
the test of 'Hitch-Hiker 5.00' at the button.
Info about the new update of Safe:
Name: Safe v16.5
Archive name: Safe.lha
Archive size: 35.456 bytes
Release date: 30 August 2001
Programmer: Zbigniew Trzcionkowski
News is v16.5:
- added possibility to change name of safe on installation.
It was necessary - new viruses like HH50 and SMEG2b
refuse to infect Safe file. This trend will surely remain,
so now Safe gives the user the easy way avoid that.
Big thanks for Antonio Noguera, who did this improvement!
This is piece of good work - even better I expected!
- removed some outdated info from html documentation
Note that the most useful information is here and in NewShit.guide.
Thanks to Michael Hendren for paying attention.
- removed SMEG2/PENETRATOR removals as xvs.library recognizes them now
- added analyze of HitchHiker5.00 the most advanced polymorphic bastard
in the Amiga universe
Download shortcut: http://home4.inet.tele.dk/vht-dk/amiga/safe/safe.htm
=== Start of HitchHiker 5.00 Virus ===
Entry: HitchHiker 5.00
Alias(es): -
Virus Strain: Smeg2
Virus detected when: August 2001
where: Aminet
Classification: Linkvirus,memory-resident, not reset-resident
Length of Virus: 1. Length on storage medium: c.a. 3720 Bytes
Has most advanced metamorphic decoders seen
for Amiga and uses slow polymorphism!
2. Length in RAM: 8588 Bytes
--- Preconditions ---
Operating System(s): AMIGA-DOS Version/Release.....: 2.04+
Computer model(s): all models/processors (MC68000-MC68060)
--- Attributes ---
Easy Identification: -
Type of infection:
- Self-identification method in files:
- via unused bits visible in dos flags
- Self-identification method in memory:
- checks for 'HH5' process
- System infection:
- A new process entitled 'HH5' will be created
and this is the only visible change in the system.
That process infects files using the known
Smeg code, but the way of getting targets is new.
- The virus patches return address from Wait()
call of device's tasks. This is very clever idea which lets
the virus patch devices which's code is placed even in ROM.
The LOCATE_OBJECT and EXAMINE_NEXT packets will be stolen.
- Infection preconditions:
- HUNK_CODE is found
- device is validated
- at least 6 free blocks
- filename does not start with "vir" and "saf"
(case independant check)
- file is bigger than 4190 bytes
- file is smaller than 100377 bytes
Infection Trigger:
- The infection is based on the packet handling
of AMIGA OS. Every started or listed file can be
infected.
Storage media affected:
Interrupts hooked:
Damage:
- Permanent damage: - none
- Transient damage: - none
Damage Trigger:
- Permanent damage: - none
- Transient damage:
- none
Particularities:
- Uses slow polymorphism! Only this little fact
mislooked by Jan Erik Olausen (and Jan Andersen)
made filedetection in xvs.library the biggest AV
joke seen for Amiga computers ever!
At the moment xvs.library detects 3 variants
of virus from several millions possible!
- The stack patches are done very clever and the
code is flexible enough to handle differences
between OS versions (including newer than 3.1).
Most of code is equal to first SMEG virus.
If the accessed file starts with the string "VIR"
or "SAF" (case independant), the file will
be not infected.
Similarities:
- It could be seen as third kind of SMEG2, but the
polyengine made it one of the most advanced viruses
for Amiga.
Stealth:
- None. The virus does not put infected file
length like BOBEK viruses to ExNext's FIB,
so it is likely that under controll of virus
user will cut files. Salvage will be never
possible as it was for HH4.11 which's files
several times appeared in truncated form
due to it's stealth... :-)
Armouring:
- Uses so called HAVOC polyengine. This is the
best such engine in Amiga virus at the moment.
The decoders are placed after the decoder block,
and the loop could contain very much logical stuff.
The decoders are made metamorphically and are built
of various jumps backward and forward.
Such decoders can be detected only in alghorythmic
way. Detection of this virus is impossible with
technics like breaking the cryptings (lot of stuff)
and tracing (entry point!).
The decoder is generated on virus startup,
so after reboot files are infected always
with new decoders.
Comments:
- The virus contains text: HAVOC
I have been working with one copy of HH5.0.
Even there really exist clones of HH5.0 I think that if the polyengine
detection will be working for one, will be good for others.

Tool: ScreamerII Version 0.84 for Amiga-Lightwave
Alexander Fritsch wrote:
Ray Darrah III released a new version of his ScreamerNet controller
"ScreamerII". ScreamerII allows shared computing of Lightwave scenes
on several machines.
ScreamerII but is essentially more flexible than the built-in ScreamerNet controller
of Lightwave. For example one computer can render a picture while simultaneously another project
gets edited in layout .
Furthermore other computers dynamic can be added to or removed from ScreamerNet.
All machines can be reseted, computing will then be continued from the proper point ( no
new starting picture must be defined in the project).
Additionally the single RenderNodes can have their own names, instead of CPU1, CPU2 like
usual. The new version 0.84 fixes a small bug with the computer names display. A. Fritsch:
"I've tested the program for several days and I'm excited!"

Sound card Repulse available from KDH
A remake of the Repulse sound card (for Zorro slots) is available from KDH, from
now on. This new Repulse version fixes the initial quality problems. All newly
delivered cards now have gold-plated Zorro contacts. Moreover the CD, manual, and
drivers were reworked. There will be a new Toccata emulation, which will be the only
one on the market working with MovieShop for the VLab-Motion. This will make the
Repulse sound card the only full Toccata replacement.

amiga-news.de: Torsten Dudai stops drawing caricatures
Since July of 1999 Torsten Dudai has supported amiga-news.de by drawing of outstanding caricatures. But some time ago Torsten made him self-employed in the section of webdesign. As anyone knows at the beginning of a self-employment you have to bale all your power to lead the firm to a succesful way.
On the one hand this change but on the other hand also the fact that in the Amiga sector the amount of news reduces of which you could create a caricature were the reasons why Torsten decided to stop drawing caricatures.
We are very sad about this decision but we can understand it, too. We really enjoyed the caricatures many times. The caricatures reflected very precisly the respective situation.
Torsten, we know that you will become a very great webdesigner and wish you all the best for your future!

amiga-news.de celebrates third anniversary :-)
For three years our team delivers messages
of the Amiga-sector and topics which are generally important for computer
and Internet to you. The last year was espacially exciting for us because
the new scripts and with it the possibilities to post comments have been
a freshening aspect. Although sometimes the ´freshening aspect´
was rather a ´ half-hearted breath of air´. Nevertheless the
comments have become an important part of amiga-news.de. Since the
introduction in January of 2001 over 16,000 comments have been given
to our messages.
Interesting because it is still always exciting to see how the market
develops - or how it does not. In the present time it is quite difficult
to understand what will happen - or what will not. Sometimes it is really
hard to find the truth between promises, announcements, exaggerations,
rumors and disputes. But just this is the attraction - to see how
comparatively small groups of enthusiasts can finally start great
projects. This is a goad for us make us hopeful.
In our history read how amiga-news.de has
developed in the past three years, who collaborates and spends his free
time for our team gratuitously.
I personally want to thank all the helpful hands because without
work of each single one amiga-news.de would not be that what it is today.
I want to thank all the readers, authors, developers and programmers which
deliver all the messages. I espacially want to thank our advertising
partners which help us to finance our website with its banner
advertisement. (ps) (Translation: dr)

Max Payne developer are (active!) Amiga-freaks
Silvio Senger writes:
Maybe the following message does not really fit to the news but I think
that it is interesting for most of the Amiga-fans:
For some weeks there is a new action hero in the PC-world called MAX
PAYNE. It lasts nearly five years to develop the game and it certainly
is one of the hits of this year, at least in the PC-fan-community. It is
known that some Amiga-Fans developed this game.
On the this year's ASSEMBLY in Finland (with nearly 5000 visitors one of
the biggest demo/LAN-parties;
www.assembly.org) where the best
freaks also compete in a "demo-competition" PC- and Amiga-demos have been
shown together in one competition. It was amazing to see that a team which
made its demo on a Amiga was the winner.
(as amiga-news.de reported).
And that is remarkable: The members of the group ´MatureFurk´
behind this demo all work at Mad Onion (known by its benchmark program
3DMark2001). The graphic artist mainly participates on Max Payne.
And there is another curious thing: Exactly the same group won on the last ASSEMBLY the PC-demo competition. The demo has the same name as the AMIGA winner demo on the ASSEMBLY 2001.
The following links are interesting:

Demo group: 'Pic Saint Loop' publishes KissMyJazz Musicdisk
Last night the Polish demo group 'Pic Saint Loup' published the long
expected Musicdisk 'KISS MY JAZZ'. It has been advertised with an
intro on the MekkaSymposium for it. To this time the musican Jazzcat
was not sure if he would really ever publish his demo.
But now it is done. Have a look at the download section at Scenet.

Music: Dennis 'Psyria' Lohr produced song for amiga-news.de
It is a great honour! The musician Dennis 'Psyria' Lohr has composed and produced
a very nice song for amiga-news.de in his spare time. You can find the song at the
download area (title link) at "Amiga-News Theme" (about 7 MB, saved in high quality) or right here:
AmigaNewsTheme2001.mp3
As I listened to the song I had the idea it would be nice if a demo coder could
create an intro for this. Really would be if someone has an idea for lyrics for this
song. If you are interested send an eMail to ps@amiga-news.de

Repulse-driver for NetBSD/Amiga
A driver for the "repulse" board by Aliendesign was added to the
NetBSD-current yesterday.
Repulse is a Zorro II interface to an AC97 compliant Audio CODEC and
additional S/P-DIF circuitry. The NetBSD driver currently only supports
8-48 kHz mono or stereo 8 or 16 bit audio data from/to the analog part.
The missing features will be added later.
The driver was added to NetBSD-current, the development branch of NetBSD.
The NetBSD projects invites volunteers to test this code. Problems should
be reported on the NetBSD port-amiga mailing list or (preferred) through
the NetBSD bug tracking system.
The repulse driver is expected to be available in the NetBSD-1.6 formal
release.

New swiss onlineshop offering Amigaproducts
Gutzwiller+Dozic Systems, a dealer from Switzerland, is proud to announce the opening of their onlineshop.
The shop offers mobile phones, digital cameras, as well as hardware and software for the Playstation2, PC and Amiga.
Later on there will be products for the Macintosh and for Audio and Video available, too.
Marc 'Gutzi' Gutzwiller of Gutzwiller+Dozic Systems: "I would like to mention that the Amiga-area is still beta.
We know that the Amiga market is very small and that it is not possible to earn money in this market. There are only
some but really good Amiga-dealers. Due to this facts we will offer Amiga products as long as we do not loose any money
by doing this. Because I am using Amigas since the good old Amiga 500 I hope that we can support Amiga as long as possible.
Feel free to mail what you think about our shop. We are pleased about any reaction."

Digital Almanac III - Update V4.0 and V4.1 (Update)
As already announced last weekend the update of Digital Almanac III
is available for all registered customers, now.
Unfortunately this update has to be delivered in two parts. The initial
archive (v4.0, 4MB) still contained two bugs, but which have been fixed
in the second part (v4.1, 1,4MB).
The update to v4.1 strongly requires v4.0!
The new and automatic update function of the program works with v4.1 only.
The update archives should appear on Aminet during the following days.
Extra hasty people may download the files from the mailing list.

ACBB live report from the IFA (Update)
A short report from the IFA (with the kind support of ifa-hammer.de) by
the ACBB.
In hall 3.2a you will find the Sharp SL5000 (Zaurus).
After initial problems (nobody knew about Amiga at the PDA booth) A4k,
Trion, and me, Gojira, found Mrs. Boxberg (Product Manager Sharp Germany).
She found very much time to show us a Zaurus with miscellaneous Amiga applications.
Later some guy with an Amiga logo on his shirt appeared. That was Sanjay Menon,
Vice President Engineering Amiga Inc.. He had a prototype with more applications
with him, too.
Mrs. Boxberg mentioned that Sharp is wanting contact with German Amiga developers
and there might be an announcement at amiga-news.de, soon.
This was the report by the ACBB so far. More information and pictures are on our
site. (sd)

Met@box: Refloating loan from the shareholder community?
On 22. August 2001 the 'Metabox AG' enquired a short-term refloating loan
in the amount of 1 million Euro from the 'Aktionärsgemeinschaft Metabox'
(shareholder community Metabox). This money is needed to maintain business operations
until the general meeting. Without this money already within the next few days
insolvency proceedings will be opened.
Thereafter the shareholder community formed a delegation, which is inspecting the Metabox AG
to estimate chances for sanitation, since last Friday.
From the inspections was derived (quotation):
«1) The company should be sustained. A sellout of the values created by the shareholder's
fund should be prevented without fail.
2) We should appeal to make available the required short-term sum of one million Euro.
The securities given let us estimate a low loan contingency risk.»

Amiga Flame: PDA - Interviews with Moss (Amiga) and Steiding (epic)
At Amiga Flame several texts were released for the subject PDA games and AmigaDE.
Fleecy Moss, Amiga Inc., emphases in the interview,
that the main focus of AmigaDE is to provide an environment in
which content can be used hardware independent. So the agreement with
Sharp allows to use AmigaDE content on Sharp's devices, but Amiga also
works together with other companies. AmigaDE already runs on different
devices in the laboratory in Snoqualmie, including the currently most
popular PDAs as well as those soon to be released, and additional on
Linux and Windows desktops. From AmigaOS v4.2 AmigaDE also will be
available for AmigaOne machines.
To reduce language problems for the Japanese market in particular games
are created to be used via icons only, as much as possible. But in the
future there will be a localizing service offered, too.
Epic Interactive announced early August to develop AmigaDE software.
Amiga Flame asked Thomas Steiding about the reasons behind this PDA engagement.
On reason for Epic Interactive to support the PDA market are the development
times of 2 - 3 month for PDA games, which are definite shorter than for desktop
games (18 - 24 month). That gives clear less risk.
Since the PDAs don't match the currently popular 3D titles, these represent a
completely different market with card games, puzzles, and shoot'em ups which
sale well in the PDA market, but would not be accepted for desktops, these days.
Due to the PDAs low performance compared to desktops Steiding thinks
Amiga developers to well suit PDA games development, since those rather are
used to handle more inefficient machines than e.g. Windows developers are.
Finally he describes the titles Epic Interactive will release, soon. Those
also are listed on Amiga PDA Games
along with other titles.

A500: Viper 530 Relaunch Project
The 'Viper 530 Relaunch Project' is an initiative to re-produce the
'Viper 530' for the Amiga 500, which is about a CPU socket extension
for the A500 with the following features:
CPU 68030 (50MHz), FPU 68882 (50MHz) slot, one SCSI-2 interface,
3 IDE ports (1x2,5", 2x3,5"), up to 128MB RAM (72 Pin SIMM),
and Kickstart 2.04.
This project was started by Pablo Esteban Castineria. He asked DCE
via e-mail if they would re-produce this card and got in reply that
DCE would do so, if enough people are interested in this card. Oliver
Day then created the above website
to inform about this card and the project.
You can register for the list of interested via
(e-mail). There is no obligation to buy.
At first this is for learning how much people are interested in this card. The price
is up to the number of units produced. The initiators expect 180£.
