Music tip: Protracker track "much"
'no9' has been working in the audio section for years and also occasionally composes music for games. On his YouTube channel, he also publishes his own compositions from time to time, like the piece "much" most recently. He uses the ProTracker 2 clone for Windows by Olav Sorensen for this. As 'no9' writes, he would have tried to use the original Amiga for it, but the constant data exchange between Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) and Amiga would have been very time consuming, as there would sometimes be a lot of copying back and forth for sample data. The Amiga Protracker compatibility was mandatory for him, though. (dr)

Developer tool: GNU Make will drop support for AmigaOS (Update)
GNU Make is the implementation of the in the Unix world often used program make for the operating system GNU. It automatically builds executable programs and libraries from source code by reading files called Makefiles which specify how to derive the target program. (Wikipedia).
As OSNews now reports, support for OS/2 (EMX), Xenix, Cray and also AmigaOS will be removed in GNU Make starting with the upcoming version.

Update: (03.11.2022, 19:30, dr)

Obviously triggered by our article, discussions have developed especially in various Discord servers which have led to some "protest mails". The maintainer of GNU Make, Paul Smith, responded to one of the mails and asked to stop writing mails:

"While it's good that AmigaOS as an operating system is still under active development, what I care about is whether anyone is maintaining *GNU make* on AmigaOS. I have not received a single patch for an AmigaOS problem with GNU make since 1996. I haven't received a single response from anyone on AmigaOS to any request for anyone to test a release candidate, or a new release, in I don't know how many releases....But if AmigaOS is not updating to newer versions of GNU make, then I don't want to maintain the (not insignificant amount of) special-case code currently existing to (not really) support it, in future releases. Fundamentally, for non-traditional operating systems it's not enough to just ask for it to be maintained. Someone has to volunteer to actively participate in the maintenance effort." (dr)

AmigaOS 4: Video about history and usage of AmigaOne X1000 (Update)
Roman 'kas1e' Kargin has published an extensive video about the AmigaOne X1000, which was officially announced by A-EON at the beginning of 2010.

Roman 'kas1e' Kargin has published a detailed tutorial on Amigans.net in which he describes the correct installation of Warp3DNova, NovaBridge, MiniGL, Ogles2, and WarpOS-Emu so that everything that has to do with 3D runs best with RadeonHD or RadeonRX graphics cards. Eventually, you should be able to run games, applications and demos written for WarpOS or 68k. (dr)

Playable previews: 'My Life Sucks' and 'My First Shooting Game'
Two more games developed for the Amiga Blitz Basic Game Jam are not yet finished, but the developers already provide playable pre-release versions. To what extent the titles will be developed further is currently unclear.

My Life Sucks (video) was supposed to be a dungeon crawler in the style of Dungeon Master, with the difference that the player controls an autonomous vacuum cleaner whose AI has taken on a life of its own. The game is described by the developer as a "tech demo", as it was not finished in time for the contest deadline. They say it is solvable, but still has plenty of bugs. Main reason for the release them the disclosure of the source code for interested Blitz-Basic programmers.

My First Shooting Game is an "experimental project" according to the author - the vertical shooter is his first Amiga and Blitz Basic project. The game currently runs only on NTSC computers and must be controlled with the keyboard. It is distributed as source code, which has to be compiled by the user himself with Blitz Basic. (cg)

MorphOS: U-Boot warning regarding AmigaOne X5000 still valid
Two years ago Mark Olsen, who maintains the official firmware for the distribution of the AmigaOne X5000 by A-EON Technology, had pointed out in great detail that the work of Steven Solie's team on their own U-Boot version could lead to unpredictable problems and thus also to data loss, which is why especially users of operating systems other than AmigaOS 4 are strongly advised not to install newer firmware versions on the X5000 unless they originate from him.

After it was stated again on the occasion of this year's AmiWest that Solie had created his own U-Boot versions for the AmigaOne X5000, among others, which would be distributed "soon", Andreas Wolf inquired at the title link with Mark 'bigfoot' Olsen whether that warning from 2020 would still be valid. This was confirmed. (snx)
