Amigaworld.net News   AmigaGPT AI ChatBot
  Amigaworld.net News posted by plechaim on 22-Sep-2025 22:12:45 (457 reads)
Cameron Armstrong has developed a chat program called AmigaGPT, which is based on ChatGPT. The software supports the latest OpenAI models including the o1 family and runs on AmigaOS 3.1 and above (including 4.1) and on MorphOS. The source code of the tool can be downloaded separately.

The new version 2.12.0 has been now released. Changes:


Add "verse" OpenAI voice
Add ability for ARexx command "SPEAKTEXT" to save audio to file of various audio formats
The say.rexx script now asks if you want to play the audio or save to a file with audio format selection
Improve display of Text To Speech errors
Most ARexx parameters now use sensible defaults instead of reading from AmigaGPT config
Fix bug where conversation titles and ARexx SENDMESSAGE responses were enclosed in quotes

Amigaworld.net News   TINAPAMA is Not a Package Manager
  Amigaworld.net News posted by tygre on 31-Aug-2025 1:07:02 (207 reads)
Hi all!

Have you ever found yourself installing the same program over and over again, on your different Amigas? You can now automate this process, even remotely, with TINAPAMA!

TINAPAMA (TINAPAMA is Not A Package Manager) brings automated program installation to Classic Amigas. It differs from AmiUpdate on AmigaOS 4 and Easy2Install on MorphOS by providing a simple command line and decentralised program descriptions. TINAPAMA allows updating programs individually or in groups, physically or remotely.

A typical use of TINAPAMA would be to execute the following command to update AmiModRadio:

1.C:> TINAPAMA Utilitaires:Musique/Divers/AmiModRadio/AmiModRadio.tinapama

and TINAPAMA would parse the description file AmiModRadio.tinapama, download, unarchive, and copy the new files into Utilitaires:Musique/Divers/AmiModRadio, only if the local version is outdated.

Amigaworld.net News   The Gate - Playable Demo available!
  Amigaworld.net News posted by Allanon on 1-Sep-2025 7:20:26 (2006 reads)
Hello everyone!

I'm really happy to share with the Amiga community a playable demo of my game called "The Gate", it's around 1.5 hours of gaming if the player checks everything!



Quote:
The game is set in a dystopian future not too far from our own.
The player takes on the role of a private detective named Kal Debris, the owner of an agency struggling due to debt.
One day, he receives a job offer from a doctor at a famous research institute to investigate the disappearance of her friend and colleague.

The game is heavily inspired by "Mission Impossible" and "Project Firestart," but with my own ideas, gameplay mechanics, and an engaging story.


You can enjoy the demo with your real Amiga or using an emulator, it should work fine with every Amiga that can handle EHB mode and is equipped with some fast memory.

An user has reported to have played the demo on his expanded A500+ @7 MHz without any issue, but I cannot guarantee that this speed is enough for some more complex levels that are in the late game.

The free public post is on Patreon with the download, as well as with some more details about the current development state.

Please have the time to read the post and the included readme.txt file to better enjoy the game demo, I explain how you have to expect, the controls, how the saves work, and many other useful information.

Patreon public post

Let me know if there are problems, bugs, errors, typos, etc... so I can fix them.
It would be great if you could tell me what actual hardware you tested the game on.

Amigaworld.net News   TINAPAMA is Not a Package Manager

Hi all!

Have you ever found yourself installing the same program over and over again, on your different Amigas? You can now automate this process, even remotely, with TINAPAMA!

TINAPAMA (TINAPAMA is Not A Package Manager) brings automated program installation to Classic Amigas. It differs from AmiUpdate on AmigaOS 4 and Easy2Install on MorphOS by providing a simple command line and decentralised program descriptions. TINAPAMA allows updating programs individually or in groups, physically or remotely.

A typical use of TINAPAMA would be to execute the following command to update AmiModRadio:

1.C:> TINAPAMA Utilitaires:Musique/Divers/AmiModRadio/AmiModRadio.tinapama

and TINAPAMA would parse the description file AmiModRadio.tinapama, download, unarchive, and copy the new files into Utilitaires:Musique/Divers/AmiModRadio, only if the local version is outdated.

TINAPAMA uses a description file to locate the remote version of a program and compare its version with the version in the local drawer. You can use ready-made description files or create your own. The drawer being updated is the drawer in which the description file, typically ending with .tinapama (e.g., AmiModRadio.tinapama above), is located. In addition to any file updated by TINAPAMA, a new file called TINAPAMA.data will be created/updated in the drawer to contain local version information.

TINAPAMA works, of course , with Aminet packages: with or without the Version: field in their READMEs, with or without top drawers in their archives. It also works with packages in GitHub and should work all the same with packages in BitBucket, codeBerg, or SourceForge! It is open source.

Get it here:
- First public release, which implements all the options that have been useful to update more than 100 programs on my A4000!
- Read-made description files for hundreds of programs!

More info. here. All questions, comments, and bug reports are welcome!

Full disclosure: I intend to submit TINAPAMA to the Amiga 40 Tools Jam 2025!

Cheers!
