MorphOS: Screenshot-Screenbar plugin 1.0
The latest Screenbar plugin for Ambient written by #amigazeux can save screenshots and offers a lot of options - e.g. the tool "can grab windows, entire screens or just a freely selectable portion of the screen", "can grab the mouse pointer too" and "can superimpose an editable text over taken screenshots". Additionally the tool includes "a built in paint program" for e.g. "drawing arrows pointing at different things."

Arcade classic: Bagman
Jean-François Fabre ported his SDL-based clone of the arcade classic Bagman to the Amiga, which required SDL libraries and thus a graphics card. Now a port is available which directly uses the chipset graphics of the Amiga.
Bagman requires 2 MB RAM, ECS and at least a 68020 processor. The source codes of the game which was written in C++ are available on Github.

AmigaOS 4: MiniGL for GL4ES
Daniel Müßener's MiniGL for GL4ES ("MiniGL4GL4ES"), which is available in a first alpha version, allows also users of Polaris graphics cards to play a lot of the MiniGL games under AmigaOS 4.
MiniGL is based on Warp3D which has never been adapted for Polaris graphics cards while the OpenGL implementation GL4ES is based on OpenGLES2 - written by the same author - which uses Warp3D Novas. Thanks to Hans de Ruiter it supports Polaris graphics cards.
But currently there is an important limitation: You should not run more than one MiniGL application simultaneously. You can find notes on known errors under the title link.

MIDI sequencer: Source code of "Horny" released
The source code of the MIDI sequencer "Horny" which was developed to 2003 to 2006 now is available under a free license on GitHub. The developer Timo Kloss wrote: "This code is so bad, I had to give up working on it. It's here for nostalgic and historical reasons only." The names of variables and functions are in German.
Kloss himself is not going to develop the program further but thinks it might be possible to remove the keyfiles checks and to provide some minor bug fixes by third parties. Originally Horny was written with StormC and due to porting it to AmigaOS 4 then adapted to GCC.

Beta version: Port of Raid over Moscow
A beta version of a port of the 8-Bit classic Raid over Moscow has been released. In three different game sections you have to face Russian aggressors preventing a nuclear attack on the United States.
The Amiga port is developed by Erik 'Earok' Hogan, the graphics are provided by Adrian Cummings, the soundtrack by Simone Bernacchia. Raid over Moscow should run on each Amiga equipped with at least 1 MB RAM but has not tested on real hardware yet. All elements of the original 8-Bit game have been already implemented but the programmer expects minor bugs or NTSC incompatibilities.
A manual still has not been published, the players are supposed to use the manual of the C64 version.

In contrary with our original news item, obviously the update is not available for free for all customers: Several of our readers have reported that the purchase of a P96 licence entitles the user to get free updates for only 12 months. Thus, if you have purchased P96 right after the takeover by Individual Computers, you again have to pay for version 2.4.4.

A-EON Technology: Pre-order registration for the A1222 Early Adopter Motherboard
In a press release only published on Facebook - the company's website is now even lacking all the old press releases from 2017 and earlier - A-EON is announcing its pre-order registration for the 'Early Adopter' motherboard of the A1222.
Press release:
A-EON A1222 Plus Limited Edition: pre-registration and special AAA bundle
A-EON Technology is pleased to announce pre-order registration for the limited edition A1222 Plus Early Adopter motherboard.
The Early Adopter release is based on the original Tabor motherboard which has been under extended beta test for the past four years. Due to obsolescence, several minor onboard components need to be replaced and A-EON, with assistance from its hardware developers, has commissioned the production of 100 motherboards for a limited manufacturing run. Hyperion Entertainment's developer & beta test teams are working on the updated AmigaOS 4.1 distribution, while the ExecSG team is optimising kernel performance for the A1222 Plus.
Each Early Adopter system will include a full AmigaOS 4.1 EA digital licence supplied by Hyperion Entertainment and have access to regular file and driver updates as soon as they become available. The A1222 Plus Early Adopter limited edition is available at a special low price of: GB£ 350, €400 or US$ 450*.
Triple-A fun for all
Building on Commodore's bundling tradition, A-EON Technology is releasing a special AAA pack to celebrate the A1222 Plus Early Adopter release. The AAA pack will include:
- The new Enhancer Software V2.0 from A-EON Technology
- "Amiga.org" mouse & mouse mat
- "Personal Paint" for AmigaOS PPC and AmigaOS 68k
- "ImageFX" for AmigaOS 3.x
- A specially commissioned "AmigaSYS 35th Anniversary Edition"
- Digital copy of the "Viva Amiga Extended Remix" movie as soon as it is released
- Special "AAA display box"
- An "A1222 Early Adopter certificate" (see option 1)
The AAA bundle is priced at: GB£ 100, €115 or US$ 128* (* plus postage and packing).
Securing your Limited Edition A1222 Early Adopter motherboard
To pre-register for the special Early Adapter package you have two options:
Option 1: AAA bundle purchase
Purchasing the AAA bundle will automatically reserve your option to purchase one Early Adopter motherboard on a first come first serve basis, subject to the number of AAA orders received.
Option 2: 20% pre-order deposit
A-EON will begin accepting orders for Option 1 from December 24th. Subject to availability, pre-orders for Option 2 will begin on January 7th 2020. The AAA packs will ship in January. The Limited Edition A1222 Plus Early Adopter boards are expected to ship around the end of the first quarter of 2020** (** subject to change).
For more information on A1222 Plus pre-registration options please visit www.a1222plus.com which will be
live in the next few days.

AmigaOS 4: Financial management Lüttje Bookholler V1.70
The author Achim Pankalla wrote: "It is a easy to use personal finance program. "Lüttje Bookholler" is a german dialect and means "little accountant" and that is what you are, when using my little program. The program is capable to import account data via csv-import. LB is email-ware, if you want to use it permanent, please send me an email and you will get some advantages! for examples updates...".
Since version 1.40 at least AmigaOS 4.1 is required.
Mainly version 1.70 improves the "look and feel" of Lüttje Bookholler. For example shortcuts were implemented and you can move the toolbar so more information can be shown.
The CSV import was reworked to meet new challenges and to improve stability and flexibility.
According to the author, Lüttje Bookholler is far from complete. He asks the users to report every bug as well as suggestions for new functions.

Developer: Chuck Peddle died
On 15. December the former Motorola and MOS-Technology developer Chuck Peddle died. In a team he developed the 6800 processor which in his opinion was much too expensive. Then he supervised the development of the cheaper 650x processors. He was one of the pioneers who forced the rise of the personal computer.

Emulator: WinUAE 4.3.0
Version 4.3.0 of the Amiga emulator WinUAE has been released.
New features/improvements:
- GUI high DPI support rewritten.
- Lagless vsync stability improvements.
- Added Trojan light gun preset to Game ports panel.
- On the fly chipset model switching compatibility improved.
- SPTI CD/DVD access mode now internally emulates all CD audio commands. All other commands are forwarded to the drive like previously.
- PCMCIA hot swap support improved. (PCMCIA SRAM and IDE needs to be set again if previously configured)
- My CPU tester detected edge cases, bugs and undocumented CPU behavior updates implemented. (More details in separate CPU tester note later)
- More compatible partition HDF default geometry calculation if size is 1000M or larger.
- CD32 pad does not anymore disable joystick second button if both CD32 and 2-button joystick is active simultaneously.
- Host directory/archive drag and drop to WinUAE window now supports mounting multiple items simultaneously.
- Debugger disassembler fixes and few very rarely used instructions dissemble now correctly.
Bugs fixed:
- Disk index pulses were not being generated when disk was being written (Cadaver v0.1 save disk writing)
- CDTV audio CD playing state restore fixed.
- A2024 monitor didn’t show full viewable area.
- 24-bit uaegfx RTG mode had random wrong color pixels in some situations.
- nrg CD images didn’t load correctly in relative path mode.
- Graphics glitch in some programs that also depended on display scaling/size (for example Alien Breed 3D)
- Disk swapper path modifications did nothing while emulation was running.
- Restoring CD32 or CDTV statefile with CD audio playing: start playing immediately, do not include normal CD audio start delays.
- Fixed possible crash when PPC emulation stopped emulated sound card audio.
- Quite special kind of CD32 pad button read code was not emulated correctly.
Other changes:
- Added separate 68000-68060 CPU tester/validator project based on UAE CPU core generator.
- Removed all 68020 cycle-exact CPU mode internal idle cycles. It mainly slowed down the CPU too much and didn’t match real world well enough.
New emulated hardware:
- Archos Overdrive HD (PCMCIA IDE adapter)
- ICD Trifecta (A500 IDE/SCSI controller)
- M-Tec Mastercard (SCSI expansion for M-Tec T1230 A1200 accelerator)
- Scala MM dongles

Amiga Forever: Version 8, R3
Press release: Amiga Forever 8 "R3" (8.3.1.0) released, consolidating more than 75 documented fixes and enhancements, and numerous minor improvements from previous early access updates. The title editor, the setup wizard and the changelog and update experience again received special attention, and so did features relating to keyboard, audio and CD handling.
A general priority of this release cycle has been on adding an extra level of polish, once more fixing all known bugs and setting a foundation for improved processing of future issues. This includes support for a new feedback server (for user feedback and application crash handling), which is now also available to emulation plugins.
Version 8 users can get the update through the Help/About dialog. The updated full installation package can also be accessed via the original confirmation email or from the new Help/My Downloads and Keys menu item. Additional details can be found in the built-in Changelog feature (in Help/About). (snx)

OpenStreetMap viewer: MUIMapparium 0.8
Marcus 'ALB42' Sackrow's OpenStreetMap viewer Mapparium has been updated to version 0.8 for all Amiga systems.
He wrote: "One disadvantage of writing a program relying on web resources is, that you have to update that program everytime the webresource is changed/updated. In the next days the search for MUIMapparium will break again, and the Find by IP/ Find me is broken a while before already.
So I updated MUIMapparium to Version 0.8 I also added some small new features, like some more shortcuts and also by popular demand to jump automatically to the first search result. Best update soon before the search function does not work anymore.
Also the 68k freepascal compiler got some updates which hopefully improve the stability and speed of the m68k-amiga Version."

Windows: MagicWB style
Sylvio Kurze wrote: As passionate Amiga user I never get used to the look and feel of Windows. I missed out the "good old days" when there were warm and comfortable colours as well as sharp buttons wizh high contrast. For me who has started with AmigaOS 2.1 and MagicWB, the excellent design is the main featute defining the Amiga Workbench.
Therefore I decided to start a project for bringing this look and feel to Windows.
It includes:
- Over 2500 MagicWB icons have been converted into the PNG and Windows-ICO format
- RocketDock background
- Rainmeter skin
- Windowblinds theme
- Background and goodies
- Several mouse pointers
Required software:
- Rainmeter for the Amiga bar and Spinning Boingball
- WindowBlinds for a complete rework of windows, menus and task bar
(I know, this takes some money but it is worth the 5 Dollar!)
- RocketDock for a MagicWB-like launcher
(It looks like Mac OS but is highly customizable.)

AMOS Professional X: Adapting AMOS to AGA
For quite some time the source codes of the BASIC development environment "Amos Professional" has been available on Github. Frédéric Cordier (e.g. game engine AmiDark) has taken on the task of developeing it further and adding new functions. On Amiga Impact he has described the progresses he made so far:
He has started his work on it a month ago and first he has implemented Dual Playfields (16 colours) under AGA (video), then he has added support for LORES screen solution with 256 colours (video) and extended the corresponding LoadIff method (video). Bobx also already works with 256 colours (video). As nhe next step he is going to add support for higher screen solutions.
In the download section of Cordier's Github repository an executable version of AMOS Pro is available but it seems to be an older version. The developer has not said when he will upload a first beta or alpha release.

-TSGUI -> 2.6b21
-WBDock 2.13 -> 2.14
Bugfixes:
-Cleaned up the installation script.
-Improved some documentation.
-Removed DOSPrefs as its operation is both buggy and quite hackish.
Tweaks:
-MMULibs is now optional when going full install (Not in the Update).
-FullPalette can be easily toggled on or off quite easily.

AmigaOS 4: Update for retro arcade game "Huenison"
The commcercial game 'Huenison' (trailer) combines diverse features of former arcade games. This update for the game, orginally released in 2013, provides diverse improvements for the graphical representation:
- Simplified and optimized CRT pixel modes
- Made 4x LCD pixel mode slightly brighter
- Added 6x pixel modes
- Added hardware-accelerated zooming for solid pixel modes to AmigaOS version
The author points out that purchasers of the CD version theoretically can update their (burned) media since they deliberately have been burned as multi session CDs. You can get further information from his announcement on amigaworld.net.

USB interface for reading and writing floppy disks on PC: Greaseweazle
After his Gotek firmware FlashFloppy, Keir Fraser has started another project for reading and writing floppy disks on PC: Similar to Kryoflux, 'Greaseweazle' reads the magnetic layers of the disks independently of the used disk format and saves as much information as possible in a so called "Flux Level Image" in the Supercard-Format (SCP) which enables reading and writing copy-protected disks.
Among others SCP disk images are supported by WinUAE and FS-UAE. Using external tools it is possible to convert them to IPF which is a more known format of the Software Preservation Society. You can also create ADF images - if the disk is not copy-protected.
Greaseweazle consists of a mikro controller board that costs only a few euros which is connected to a disks drive and then via USB to the PC. All required software is available on Github under a free license.

Hardware extension: "A314" adds internal Raspberry Pi to A500
Niklas Ekström has developed a FPGA-based adapter board which allows you to connect a Raspberry Pi to the internal extension port of the Amiga 500. The Verilog source code, the source codes of the Amiga and Linux software as well as the design for the "A314" board are available at Github under a free license.
 |
 |
The Raspberry Pi makes 0,5 or 1 MB of its main memory available to the A500 depending on the used Agnus revision as chip or slow RAM. Both computers access this memory for exchanging data. Additionally there is a communication channel which both systems can use for poiting out to incoming data. A battery backed real time clock the A314 emulates as well. What tasks the software is to handle :
- a314fs: is a file system that is mounted in AmigaDOS as a device, PI0:.
- pi: is a command that lets you invoke executables on the RPi from the AmigaDOS CLI. For example, if your current working directory is on PiDisk: and you run "pi vc hello.c -o hello", then the vc program (the VBCC cross-compiler) is executed on the RPi with the given arguments. It will cross-compile "hello.c" into the Amiga executable file "hello". The resulting binary is immediately accessible through the a314fs.
- PiAudio: lets the RPi stream audio samples directly to the shared chip memory, from where Paula plays those samples. PiAudio is integrated with ALSA on the RPi so that any program that plays audio through ALSA can be used, i.e. "pi mpg123 -a amiga song.mp3" plays song.mp3 using the program mpg123 to the Amiga.
- VideoPlayer: is a simple program that displays a sequence of images on the A500 by letting the RPi write bitplanes directly to the shared memory (this again requires that the A314 memory is chip memory, and not "ranger" memory).
- RemoteWB: works by moving the Workbench bitplanes over to the chip memory on the A314. This requires that the A500 has at least a 8372 Agnus. During drawing of each frame on the Amiga, the RPi reads those bitplanes, encodes them into a GIF image, and transmits that image to a web browser through a web socket. The web browser in turn, returns key presses and mouse movements back to the Amiga through the same web socket. In effect, this becomes a web browser based remote control application, comparable to VNC but with near zero performance impact on the Amiga CPU!
 |
 |
In future Networking is planned either through a bsdsocket.library implementation that forwards socket operations to the RPi and executes those operations there (high degree of offloading), or a Sana II driver used with a full network stack (lesser, but still offloading).

CDXL player: AGABlaster 0.9.65 alpha
AGABlaster is a player for an adapted version of Commodore's video file format CDXL: Among others now a colour depth of up to 24 Bit is supported, frameskipping or frames with variable colour depth. Additionally the video file includes all necessary (timing) informationen for playing a stream.
AGABlaster was written in assembler and on (fast) AGA computers it can play video streams with a solution of 320x256 with 24 frames per second and 8-Bit stereo sound. Currently graphic or sound cards are not supported but the player also can be used on OCS machines although it was primarily written for the AGA chipset.

Linux connection for Amiga Explorer: fuse-aexplorer and lxamiga.pl
fuse-aexplorer is a file system driver for Linux which can mount drives shared by Cloanto's Amiga network software Amiga Explorer under Linux. The author warns that his "software is highly experimental" and you use it "fully AT YOUR OWN RISK". He also explained that "the Amiga Explorer protocol really isn't meant to be used as a network file system". Therefore diverse hacks had to be used.
A something more simple approach lxamiga.pl uses: From a console window simple commands can be sent to an Amiga on which Amiga Explorer runs: Making a directory, transfering a file or writing an ADF image to a disk. (cg) (Translation: dr)
