SCSI emulation: BlueSCSI-Toolbox V1.2c
The BlueSCSI Toolbox combines two utilities for managing a BlueSCSI V2 or ZuluSCSI in a Commodore Amiga: the CD changer makes it possible to switch between CD ISO images on the SD card during operation. The SD transfer tool can be used to transfer files from the SD card to the Amiga.

In the updated version 1.2c some utility.library functions of AmigaOS 3.2 have been removed, so that older OS versions are now supported.

Multi-purpose tool: Report+ V8.5
Report+ is a ReAction-based open-source software for Amiga systems that offers several useful functions:
  • It is a friendly enhanced replacement for the official Commodore bug reporting tool (V40.2), optionally sending emails automatically.
  • It can generate/edit Aminet-style and OS4Depot-style readmes.
  • It can view/edit A3000/A4000-type battery-backed memory.
  • It can view/edit IFF/RIFF files and their component chunks.
  • It can access the official manufacturer and product ID registries.
  • It can perform batch processing on icons.
  • It can convert between various ASCII formats.
  • It can show directory byte usage for any path, optionally also changing protection bits and/or deleting specified files.
  • It can compare two paths, showing added, missing and changed files.
Report+ has been continuously updated and expanded by the developer Amigan Software for years. The new version 8.5, released on 16 June 2024, once again includes various improvements and bug fixes. The tool runs on AmigaOS 3.2/3.9 (the latter with BoingBag2) with 2 MB of free RAM, on AmigaOS 4 and on MorphOS (with ReAction). The archives include the source code of the software.

The download is available from the Aminet (AmigaOS-3.x-version, MorphOS-version, AmigaOS-4-version) or from the developer's website under the title link. (nba)

Image and PDF converter: Image2PDF 2.7 for all Amiga systems
Bernd Assenmacher's Image2PDF is a tool for converting images to PDF and vice versa. Images can also be scaled or saved in a different format (amiga-news.de reported). Changes in version 2.7:
  • some small cosmetical fixes were done
  • improved tooltips
  • expanded scaling range of function "scale image(s) to" (now 10-6000)
  • added an "abort" function to have the possibility to abort processes when having many images in the loop. This does not work with "Convert PDF to" function.

Game Construction Kit: RedPill 0.9.39
RedPill, developed by Carlos Peris, is a game construction kit written in Amiblitz 3.99, which allows the development of games from various genres (e.g. Agonman).
