Event: Pictures of the Sharp exhibiton at the IFA-Berlin
Ralf Himmel visited the IFA and made a small movie. Due to the fact that this movie has a size of 15mb he extracted some pictures and wrote some lines about what is depicted.
The special thing about the AmigaDE seems to be that the whole control panel fly into the visible screen area from the left
picture 1 (48 KB).
The controls of a game are looking realy cool. Picture 2 (64 KB) shows a megaball version. The blue background and the board came from the left side of the screen.
A program can be started by touching on a graphic of the controlpanel. Picture 3 (73 KB) shows a tetris clone. Apart from the costs it could become one of the most beautiful gameboys ever.
Picture 4 (82 KB) depicts the device running a 'normal' application that needs more power of the cpu then the AmigaDE (at least in my oppinion). This picture also shows that the display is still readable even if your point of view is not vertical above the device. (ps) (Translation: sk)

AmigaDE: memory_profiler_0colon2
On 5. September 2001 Fleecy Moss released an update for the memory profiler
for the AmigaDE SDK.
In this version the macros were moved to '/ami/sys/inc/', since the '/ami' directory
was supposed to contain anything regarding Amiga, including programs and files coming
from Amiga, third-party developers, and users. '/ami/sys/' will be the basic directory
for any Amiga in-house development.
Tao extended the ami_get_tmem macro with the possibility to determine the array.

Tales of Tamar: LARP meeting, Amiga and Atari update
From 21. to 23. September 2001 the first medieval 'Tales of Tamar' meeting
will take place near Kassel,
Germany.
On that weekend a LARP-Con (a mixture of adventure, entertainment, fun, and suspense)
will take place in a comfortable and romantic ambient. LARP means LiveAdventureRolePlaying
and gives the Tales of Tamar players the chance to put their game character from the game
into reality. Everything will be of medieval style. The players will have to wear proper clothing,
they will talk medieval, there will be fights between the Draks and some players and in the
evening they will discuss the current political situation on Tamar and drink Met
(medieval honey wine).
Among others a medieval band will be there and even the radio station EinsLive ! This radio
station has several millions listeners each day and they want to do an one-hour broadcast about
the Con and Tales of Tamar.
Since the Amiga show planned for that date was canceled especially Amiga users are
heartily invited to attend that meeting. Detailed information about the LARP-Con are to
find here.
A new race was put to the world of Tamar in the AMIGA version V0.37 - the Orks.
So the ancient war between Orks and humans is blazing again. The Orks are a non-human race
and controlled by the ToT-server, only. Usually they come from the mountains and try to
create their own realms. They strictly start to fight against human players and will leave
nothing undone to displace the humans from Tamar, again.
Now it's the players' turn. They might have to put aside their quarrels in order to be able
to have the armies available required to fight the Orks.
Time will show if they will succeed.
The following was entirely ported from the Amiga version to the ATARI version V0.24:
the town, the tavern, the online chat, the mail editor, rune stone, the rain, the green triangles (vacation mode).
This makes the Atari version becoming more and more interesting. Also for that section still testers are wanted.
The Tales of Tamar team welcomes Atari users.

Amiga Arena news
Amiga Arena - special price offer
In cooperation with Ronny Schütz the Amiga Arena makes a special price for XTrace
possible. XTrace is an image processing program which allows to trace pictures in
bitmap format and save them in a vector format.
This is very useful for the use of pictures in DTP programs. Some basic knowledge
on desktop publishing, especially technical terms, are required to make full use of
the possibilities of XTrace.
The pictures can be processed before and after tracing in a variety of ways to achieve
as good results as possible. Some features of XTrace:
- change of color
- digital filter sequences
- support of color curves
- internal list of about 400 colors with own names
- histogram view, stretching and equalization
- conversion between different color types
- powerful palette editor
- aspect / DPI change
- rotation (three-dimensional)
- full transparency support
- full clipboard and XPK support
- CyberGraphX/Picasso96 support
- fullscreen and font sensitive user interface
You'll find more information at the
XTrace-Website.
With this special price offer you have the chance to show the developer
Ronny Schütz that there's
still interest in XTrace. He'd be happy about feedback and suggestions.

Tool: PlayMOD v1.8 released
Andreas Falkenhahn writes:
PlayMOD was just released on the Airsoft Softwair homepage.
PlayMOD plays, as the name says, Protracker and Noisetracker
modules however with a slight difference from all the other
players: PlayMOD is primarily meant for playing MODs by double-clicking
the icon of the file. So it's useful for CD-ROMs
with a lot of MODs with icons which have PlayMOD as the default
tool. PlayMOD was also used on the "The Best Of Airsoft Softwair
Gold Edition" CD-ROM.
Additionally it plays IFF-8SVX files of any size. PlayMOD is
a small, system-friendly program and runs either with or without
a GUI (user-configurable!). PlayMOD is Freeware and can be
downloaded from the Airsoft Softwair homepage (title link).

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)

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+

New Linux_m68k kernel and programs for Linux APUS

Under the title link a new kernel for Linux_m68k as well as a new kernel and

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!

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.
