Amiga emulator: vAmiga.net In 2019, developer Dirk Hoffmann started to develop vAmiga, a new, user-friendly Amiga emulator for MacOS machines that emulates an A500, A1000 or A2000. This is available in the current version 2.3. Based on this, two WebAssembly implementations were created directly for the browser:
As he explains to us, his web port has experimental status and currently only supports a selection of the features that the Mac version of vAmiga offers (for example, no snapshots are supported and there is no virtual keyboard). The idea arose from the motivation to familiarise oneself with web development. He makes further development dependent on feedback from users. (dr) [News message: 15.

MorphOS: Web browser Wayfarer 5.0 Jacek 'jacadcaps' Piszczek has released version 5.0 of his Wayfarer web browser for MorphOS, a major update that introduces the WebKit engine WebKitGTK 2.38.5, which was only released in the middle of last month. Wayfarer 5 also introduces the User Scripts Manager known from Odyssey. Furthermore, it is now also possible to relocate the cookies database to RAM while running, to reduce the amount of writes to SSD drives and improve performance.

AmigaOS 4: X11 environment AmiCygnix 1.7r2 Edgar Schwan's AmiCygnix is a Unix environment for AmigaOS 4. It is not an emulation, but all programs are compiled natively for AmigaOS 4 (screenshot). AmiCygnix provides a directory and data structure similar to that of a Unix installation. Version 1.7r2 fixes some bugs of version 1.7 which was released at the beginning of 2023 (amiga-news.de reported):

Amiga emulator: vAmigaWeb - support for real mouse on iPad vAmigaWeb is an Amiga emulator for the web browser or a Progressive Web App (PWA) based on the Amiga emulator vAmiga for MacOS. Just a week ago, the developer 'mithrendal' had updated his emulator - we reported yesterday - to now add another feature: support for real mice on the iPad. As he explains to us, "it is now possible to connect any mouse to an iPad (the MagicKeyboard even has a trackpad built in), but the movement data of web applications is not (yet) retrieved via the so-called PointerLock API". This makes it difficult to control Amiga games or the Workbench with a real hardware mouse. Since he now has an iPad himself, he was able to implement a fallback solution that does not require the PointerLock API standard, but "works amazingly well". (dr) [News message: 13.

Crowdfunding: Book "STAMIGA: The Flame Wars" funded Microzeit from Germany and Editions64K from France are going to publish "STAMIGA: The Flame Wars", a book that is supposed to illuminate the competition for the number 1 home computer between the Amiga and the Atari ST in the mid and late 1980s (amiga-news.de reported). Before the deadline on Monday morning, the required amount has been reached so that the book project will be realised. Delivery is planned for December 2023, and discounted offers are currently still available. (dr) [News message: 12.

MorphOS: MIDI-Tools 1.4 for BarsnPipes 1.3 Alfred Faust writes: Antoine 'tcheko' Dubourg has thankfully improved and developed the camdusbmidi.class for MorphOS in a very short time to such an extent that it now also manages MIDI data transmission with the so-called multiport USB MIDI interfaces without any restrictions. For this I have adapted the MIDI-In and MIDI-Out tools in BarsnPipes. Now it is possible to manage up to 256 (16x16) separate MIDI channels (instruments) in BarsnPipes with a multiport USB MIDI interface. However, these multiport USB MIDI interfaces must be built according to the USB MIDI standard. They are available in good music stores and also online (e.g. Thomann). (snx) [News message: 12.

PiStorm32-lite: Assembly instructions of CM4 adapter published Claude Schwarz' PiStorm connects a Raspberry Pi to the CPU socket of an Amiga via an adapter and uses the British single-board computer to emulate a fast m68k processor. The lite version is supposed to take into account the current difficult situation in the procurement of components and in principle be cheaper (amiga-news.de reported). Basically, the adapter is intended for use with a PI3A, PI3B, PI4B or PiZero2. But for some time now, Emu68 developer Michal Schulz had been working on the development of an additional adapter that would allow the operation of a Compute Module 4 instead of a Raspberry Pi (amiga-news.de reported). The work on the CM4 adapter and on adapting Emu68 to it is now complete, so Schulz has published the corresponding circuit diagrams and building instructions on GitHub.
The CM4 is basically a Raspberry Pi4 on an even smaller board without peripherals, which is intended more for industrial applications. Since the CM4 does not have the usual 40-pin header, it cannot be operated alone with the PiStorm. Schulz's CM4 adapter board is needed for this. Basically, the developer tells us, there are already many adapter boards for CM4 on the market, but they have a problem: they would fit together with the PiStorm32-lite, but would not have the right size to ultimately fit everything in the Amiga's expansion slot. There is a risk of overheating and short circuits. The adapter board he designed was specially intended for the PiStorm32Lite and fit together like a glove. Furthermore, there is enough space for a heat sink and fan. In addition, his adapter board has a ribbon cable connection to which an IO card developed by Claude Schwarz (also to be released soon) can be connected, with which the relevant connections such as HDMI, Ethernet or USB can be routed out of the back of the A1200. This will reduce cable clutter. Finally, the CM4 adapter offers an NVMe slot. There is no driver for it yet, but in the future it will be possible to connect an NVMe hard drive.

AROS: Web browser AmiFox in development AmiFox is a kind of web browser which outsources the actual rendering via WRP (Web Rendering Proxy), so that the finished rendering is sent back to the Amiga just as an image (amiga-news.de reported). Now there have been single enquiries as to whether a conversion for AROS is also possible, whereupon developer Marcus 'ALB42' Sackrow created a first internal beta version and reported on it both in his blog entry published yesterday and in a YouTube video.

Text adventure: Memory Lane The developer 'ComSha' has released a classic text adventure called "Memory Lane" in which you can explore a city and discover mysterious places. You have to collect various objects and interact with other citizens. The catch: they don't seem to be able to remember you. Depending on the player's actions, six different endings to the game are possible. The developer created his text adventure during an internship, which he updated again on a larger scale a year later. (dr) [News message: 12.

Amiga emulator: vAmigaWeb - support for iPad Pro ProMotion displays vAmigaWeb is an Amiga emulator for the web browser or a Progressive Web App (PWA) based on the Amiga emulator vAmiga for MacOS. In the now updated version, developer 'mithrendal' has added support for Apple's iPad Pro with ProMotion display, according to the manufacturer a technology that delivers frame rates of up to 120Hz for smooth scrolling, greater responsiveness and smoother movements. In the previous version of vAmigaWeb, frame rates were limited to 30fps. In addition, the update offers iPadOS/iOS-16-specific bug fixes for muting, among other things. (dr) [News message: 12.
