MorphOS/AROS: Fodquake 0.3 (trial version)
Under the title link trial versions of Fodquake 0.3 are available. Aditional to the MorphOS version, Mark 'bigfoot' Olsen has ported the game to AROS (x86/PPC) as well. A server browser also is included (can be accessed with the Escape-key).
Fodquake is a further development of the Quakeworld client Fuhquake. Because Mark Olsen himself could not test the PPC-AROS-version, feedback is asked for this version in particular. The developer also is working on an AROS-version of Return to Castle Wolfenstein (Screenshot 1, 2).

AmigaOS 4: RunInUAE r5
With Christopher Handley's RunInUAE it is possible to start installed m68k-Amiga-software or ADF disk images in an UAE-environment. New in version r5:
- If you don't have an Amiga Forever CD, you no-longer have to supply files from a Workbench 3.1 disk (as a suitable fake WB3.1 will be created - although compatibility is lower).
- Fixed an r4 installation bug where RunInUAE might not run right automatically until it had been run once manually. Many thanks to DAX for reporting this bug.
- Changed E-UAE's priority from -1 to 0, to improve emulation performance. Thanks to DAX for his suggestion.
- Various tweaks to E-UAE's configuration to improve emulation compatibility, accuracy & performance. Heavily based upon DAX's suggestions.
- The installer will create the "kick34005.A500" & (with the AF 2008+ CD) "kick40068.A1200" files, which are needed by some WHDLoad games (such as Lucas Arts adventures). Thanks to DAX for help.
- Improved patching of Workbench, to hopefully work on all versions of OS4, including Update 3 for OS4.1. Thanks to Colin Wenzel for his help, and Philippe Ferrucci for testing.
- Added support for DMS disk images. Also the Insert disk requester now only shows files of the right type.
- Added option to not change Workbench 3.1's screenmode prefs. Requested by Philippe Ferrucci.
- Add a Help menu item, and the main window also reacts to the Help key. Added after many requests for this!
- Would wrongly open an empty Notepad when answering No to creating a per-game config file.
- When using a pre-existing Workbench 3.1 installation, it now ensures that the correct WbRun command is installed. Thanks to Philippe Ferrucci for reporting this bug.
- Added Mason's pretty icons for RunInUAE's folder, plus UAE's folder & program. Thanks to DAX for pointing them out.
- The installer's "Select ROM" file requester now starts in E-UAE's folder, for convenience. Thanks to Philippe Ferrucci for suggesting this.
