Real-time strategy: Vanilla Conquer with 'Mission Pack' support
Artur Jarosik is known for various game ports like the platformer Hydra Castle Labyrinth or the action adventure Heart of Darkness besides his SDL implementation of the browser NetSurf. As a contribution for the AmiGameJam he started to port the first part of the realtime strategy series Command & Conquer to the Amiga and named it "Vanilla Conquer" (amiga-news.de reported).

Today the developer has added support for mission packs and by that 15 new missions and seven new music tracks. The game is intended for Amigas equipped with Apollo/Vampire V4 or PiStorm/Emu-68 expansions.

  • Rewrite of the codeblocks virtual machine for improved performance
  • Lots of bug fixes and other minor improvements

Game Construction Kit: RedPill 0.9.10
RedPill, developed by Carlos Peris, is a game construction kit written in Amiblitz 3.9, which allows the development of games from various genres (see short tests of two Redpill games). RedPill is compatible with AGA and ECS, the "player" for playing the finished creations requires a total of 1.5 MB RAM.

The new version 0.9.10 offers besides numerous improvements and fixes now support for AGA fetch modes, which allow the Amiga chips to work in bigger chunks, making graphics operations faster:
  • EXPERIMENTAL: Fetch mode can be set in the Screen menu for AGA games: Normal, Double and Quadruple fetch modes are supported.
  • Increased Fetch modes can improve game speed, specially in machines without fastram.
  • With higher fetch modes, funny effects could happen when using sprites or changing the screen width of the screen.
  • Resize of the map dimensions now can automatic replace the tiles to the new dimensions.
  • Multiple WHDload slaves added:
    • Workbench31_1.Slave 1 MB Chip 1 MB Fast
    • Workbench31_4.Slave 2 MB Chip 4 MB Fast
    • Workbench31_32.Slave 2 MB Chip 32 MB Fast
  • Object drawing has been reimplemented for safer (but also slower) rendering.
  • Embedded Help for trigger conditions is now more complete.
  • If the Sprite layer was attached to an Object Set Sprite Pos detaches it.
  • Set Sprite Pos will ignore parameters with coordinates less than -1000. This way you can set up just x or y coodinate.
  • Action Set NTSC moved to General category.
  • In Level Objects screen you can select snap to tile to move objects only in tile exact coordinates.
  • In Level screen you can import and export maps in CVS format.
  • General optimization.
  • When an object is attached to mouse movement now it takes into account the scrolling area.
  • Fix in camara not reaching end of the level with reduced screen widths.
  • Fix in brush width and height when using the tile shortcuts.

Jeremy Parker's Amiga 500 Mod PCB project provides, among other things, a Raspberry Pi used as an RGB-to-HDMI converter with an HDMI output on the back of the Amiga 500. A small switch allows access to the menu of the single-board computer.

Two further switches are used to integrate a DF0/DF1 switch or to define the low-pass filter. (snx)

Amigas in films: Amiga 1000 in fourth season of Stranger Things
The streaming provider Netflix currently offers a series called "Stranger Things", in whose sixth episode of the fourth season, which takes place in 1986, an Amiga 1000 is used: It is used to dial into a server and find out a location with the help of an IP address. You can see the Workbench - but the source code shown there seems to be C#, which was only introduced in 2001. (snx) (Translation: dr)

AmigaOS 4: http-handler 1.11
16 years ago the first version of the http-handler published by Chris Young was released, what amiga-news.de reported about. The day before yesterday the developer released the "jubilee version" 1.11 (Queen Elizabeth II) which now supports AmiSSL 5. His http-handler provides a virtual drive "HTTP:" which can be used to access resources on the Internet. Features of the handler:
  • Allows access to web-hosted files via a virtual HTTP: device.
  • Also supports secure sites with AmiSSL and a virtual HTTPS: device.
  • Basic authentication supported using an addressing scheme like "http://user:pass()www.domain.com"
  • Supports Open(), Read(), Close() and Seek().
  • Implements HTTP redirects (301,302,307) as soft-links - even works with redirects that point to local files.
  • Optionally supports gzip content-encoding for faster download times, if z.library is installed.
  • Will work through a proxy server.
  • Can connect to HTTP services running on ports other than the default.
4Shortly after the release of the first version, the developer had conducted a survey on WebDAV support. Based on the positive feedback, he started implementing it, which originally resulted in version 2 - which he initially abandoned at the time - and later 3. However, as he tells us, he lost support for the other protocols in these versions, which is why a WebDAV beta version 6 was released, which is available on Open Amiga. (dr)

ReAction GUI for XAD: Avalanche 1.6 for AmigaOS 3 and 4
Chris Young has released version 1.6 of his ReAction-based graphical user interface Avalanche for the unarchiving system XAD, which also supports the xfdmaster.library and can search for viruses using the xvs.library. The developer has written his tool explicitly for AmigaOS 3.2 (but it has also been tested under AmigaOS 4), because it uses a new window.class, so it might not work with older OS3 versions. Changes
  • Add ability to extract disk archives to images
  • Add ability to extract files from disk images/archives
  • Double-clicking now extracts the clicked file to a temporary location and opens it. NB: This has required the previous "single click to select/deselect" to be disabled, as the functionality was incompatible.
  • Add option to enable/disable the quit confirmation requester
  • Localisaton support
  • Improved progress display - now shows current file progress and total
  • Fix loading/saving of virusscan pref on OS4
  • Fix unchecking of files in archive

Retro gaming: WHDLoad 18.8
Using WHDLoad, you can install games, scene demos and intros from cracking groups to your harddisk that were only working from floppy disks previously. Version 18.8 provides the following changes:
  • fix: new created files in sub directories which are cached are now correctly reported via Examine (issue #5536)

MorphOS: Web browser Wayfarer 3.7
Jacek 'jacadcaps' Piszczek has released version 3.7 of his Wayfarer web browser for MorphOS. This version focuses almost exclusively on media playback in various modes. Many web pages and streams should work much better with version 3.7 and watching streams should be possible for a long time without running out of RAM.

Changes:
  • Rewritten MediaSource player state machines to improve seeking, end-of-stream handling
  • Fixed a bug that caused a/v decoders to keep increasing the read-ahead decoded frame buffers infinitely (causing out-of-memory sooner or later during playback)
  • Fixed a memory leak in a/v de-multiplexer
  • Refactored the HLS player to enable seeking in terminated playlists
  • Reduced the memory footprint of MediaSource playback
  • Fixed video position reporting for MediaStreams w/o an audio track
  • Rewritten the right mouse button handling
  • Improved the media popup, added stream information
  • Fixed input handling in fullscreen mode
  • Updated OpenJPEG

Competition: 'Amiga Blitz Basic Game Jam' started
Today indie game developer Dan 'zooperdan' Thoresen (Wheel of Fortune implementation 'YAWoFFA') started the Amiga Blitz Basic Game Jam: until September 1st 2022 Amiga developers are invited to write and submit games in AmiBlitz or Blitz Basic (amiga-news.de reported).

The idea behind this contest is to increase the number of programmers and the knowledge around the Amiga and the use of Blitz Basic and AmiBlitz to create games. This means that all games submitted must include the source code so that beginners have examples to study and learn from.

Only games for 68k Amigas with AmigaOS are admitted, MorphOS, AmigaOS 4 and AROS are excluded. Likewise, submissions requiring Vampire cards, graphics cards or other special hardware will not be accepted. The game of the winner determined by a jury will be published on CD by Bitmap Soft. Public winners will receive a THEA500 Mini, a Deluxe Mini Monster Retro Gaming Joystick Kit, or a Tales of Gortluth III CD-ROM, among other prizes. More details under the title link. (dr)
