AmigaOS 4: PerfectPaint adaptation in the works
Marco "Blackbird" Möring discloses in a comment on amiga-news.de that he is working on an adaptation of the graphics program PerfectPaint to AmigaOS 4.
Georges Halvadjian, the original author of the freeware application written in Blitz Basic, had disclosed the temporary discontinuation of the development some time ago.
Apparently, the sources reside in the ownership of Möring for some weeks now, who wants to eliminate diverse problems in the usage of the program under AmigaOS 4.

Amiga Clone: Development of PowerOS picked up again
PowerOS, a project introduced by Claus Herrmann to the public in 2001, should originally have been a PowerPC-native reproduction of AmigaOS (Screenshot), which was to run on Amiga computers with PowerPC processors (BlizzardPPC, CyberstormPPC as well as the AmiJoe which never materialized).
However, already at the start of 2002, the original, commercial orientation was discarded for lack of time, and the sources of the project were released.
On the recently revised homepage, from which all old information was removed, details that the development has been picked up again can be found in the new FAQ now: Reportedly, PowerOS is running only under VMWare at present, since this presents the most comfortable development environment. However, versions that run without a host operating system on a standard PC are also planned later on. (cg) (Translation: cad)

Interactive 3d-model of an Amiga 1200
Under the titlelink you can find an item to an Amiga 1200 at old-computers.com - a website which introduces 925 computer veterans so far.
A 3d-model of the A1200 from Marco Chrappan was added recently, which you can access under the link at the right menu. Unfortunately you need a browser plugin for that, which seems to require the Internet Explorer.
But if you have handled this problem, then you cannot only turn and increase the computer, but you can remove the trap door also. Unfortunately the pcb wasn't modelled in detail. (snx) (Translation: ts)

Prerelease: new arcade game "BatDefense" under work
Markus Pohlmann works on "BatDefense", a game where you must defend a city against bats (Screenshot). The author writes the following:
"From now you can find an lha-archive of a prerelease of the game "BatDefense", version 0.4, at the website www.pohlsoft.de. The archive's size is about 3 MB. The game is based on an old arcade game's idea, where you have to defend a city with a plane against the attack of huge bats.
You must have a graphics card with a screen mode of 640x480 in 16 bit and ca. 10 MB of free memory. The game was developed and tested with a graphics card under Picasso and on a 68060; CGFX should work also.
I am eager to know which computer and configuration can run the game and if its speed is acceptable, because I can test it only on an evaluation pc.
The graphic routines as well as the sound routines of this program will be implemented into the "Project Crashsite" (yes, the project is still alive). BatDefense is some sort of a "test driver" for these routines. Therefore the bug reports are heavenly important for me!
Have fun with the game and don't forget your feedback (with configuration), please!" (snx) (Translation: ts)
