PDF-Book "Le livre du Pegasos" now in English translation as well
The 148-page book "Le livre du Pegasos," available as a PDF file, for which translators had been sought (reported by amiga-news.de), is now available in a first, though still incomplete, English version as well. At present, Mac OS X as well as half of the Linux section are still missing.
Aim of the book is to bring information and articles on every aspect of the Pegasos and its operating systems (MorphOS, Linux, Mac OS X via Mac-on-Linux) together in a single document, so that these can be consulted offline as well, and printed without problems.
Translations to more languages (German, Spanish, Italian, Portugese, Swedish and Polish) are already in the works. In the meantime, donations can be made to the authors and translators, too. (snx) (Translation: cad)

Example-Project: Skeletal animation with Blender
Carsten Siegner has created a small animation for the raytracer Blender, which demonstrates the insertion of skeletal animations in a real scene. In doing so, the so-called shadow objects are used as well, meaning objects that are not depicted themselves, but rather, only cast a shadow. With shadow objects, you can furnish every 3D object in a real scene with shadows.

AmiDevCpp: Version 0.5 released / AROS now target platform as well
AmiDevCpp, the integrated Amiga development environment for Windows, is available in version 0.5, and now includes, in addition to the m68k-amigaOS cross-compiler, an i686-aros cross-compiler as well.
With this, it is (at least theoretically) possible to compile a project created with AmiDevCpp for AmigaOS (m68k) as well as for AROS (x86) with few mouse clicks.
For downloading and installing, an Internet installer created specially for this is recommended.

The pictureviewer WarpView use Warp3D for rendering, which makes a fast
skaling possible. But the program needs more video-RAM as a regular
pictureviewer. Datatypes are required for decoding..
In version 0.6 a lot of minor errors are fixed, among others is a
Drag'n Drop support, mouse-blanking and a alphanumerical sort added.
Also the 90°-turn will be rejected by a change between files.
