Demo Version v44.40 of the HSMathLibs for MC68040/060
Matthias Henze wrote:
After a very long time there is a "new" demo version. This version corresponds to the full version v44.40 from 30.01.1999. Only the installer script and the manuals, which are available in 14 languages, got a rework.

I've decided to release this little older version because everytime soon after the release of a new demo version a cracked version of this was available. To give the honest users a small advantage over the crackers and software pirates the v44.41 will be available ONLY to registered users for the time being.

Amiga Archive: Download via HTTP Recommended
Patrick Roberts (Web-Server "zAMilo") has recommended on the Open Amiga mailing list to use the HTTP protocol for downloads of the Amiga archive. Downloads via HTTP have the advantage of being counted and displayed directly on this page.

He himself and probably other programmers, too, orientate their priorities for the software development along these numbers.

At the moment there are many games in the Top 10 of the downloads. For him this means to concentrate on games for , as this is the software genre which is most wanted by the people.

Amiga: Information about SHEEP
Gary Peake has posted some information about SHEEP on the Open Amiga mailing list. SHEEP is a programming language in development by Wouter van Oortmerssen (Amiga E) specially for AmigaDE.

The language can be used as interpreter and as compiler language (VP-code). The speed of the compiled code is said to be comparable to that of C++/Java.

The pattern matching of SHEEP won't be restricted to strings but can be used on every data structure. For this the language will contain an own variant for the pattern matching. In addition to this the kn regular expressions (Perl) will be supported. It is not decided until whether this will happen as a separate feature or via utility functions.

The language will offer an interface to write extensions for SHEEP. This will allow to write them in every language that supports the Amiga-Object-system, for example VP-assembler or Ansi-C.

(VP is the virtual processor of the Amiga/TAO system)

A new Message about iFusion
Original message:
«We have encountered a few problems with the compiler we were using for the Amiga. Today, H&P (makers of the compiler) are to email us a new (corrected) version that should fix the problems that we have run into. It came to the point where we could no longer make work-arounds for the compiler errors.

We would like to publically thank H&P for their continued support of this project! The Amiga version of iFUSION is the base code for the PC port.»

Individual Computers - News
Here the headlines:

  • X-Surf revised
    Since two weeks, a revised version of the X-Surf ethernet board is shipping.
  • Buddha Flash Gold Edition with 32k Flash
    Because of the Euro currency being continously weak against the US Dollar, the size of the flash memory on the Buddha Flash controller had to be reduced to 32K.
  • ISDN-Surfer gamma-test starting in week 46
    During the week from November 13th to 17th, the gamma-test of the ISDN-Surfer will start. For this test, we're looking for Amiga users with very special setups and ISDN phone lines that are NOT provided by Germany's Deutsche Telekom.
  • Repulse sound board will be produced by individual Computers
    After long negotiations, the contract with Aliendesign, the team that has developed the Repulse, has been finished. If we can collect enough pre-orders this month, production may even start this year.

More details at the title link.

Programmer Wanted
Wanted:
A programmer, who wants to take over the further development of the source code (C++, 98% OOP) of SOMS. It is just about game-programming like story/inventory/bobs, some effects, and resolving bugs. Everything else is ready and easy to use. You will need an Amiga with min 20MB RAM and a fast cpu (68030+) for compilation and an installed GNU-C version 2.91.66 (GCC/EGCS) or higher and GeekGadgets.

The programmer does not have to do all of the work. We are planing a cooperation with the actual programmer because he has not longer the possibility to spent all of his time on the programming of the engine. The payment will be percentage of every sold game.
