Amiga Future: cheats database Update
The cheats database of Amiga Future is updates weekly by David Jahn, even at first sight if it is not immediately apparent.
The cheat database on the Amiga Future webpage is probably the biggest German collection for the Amiga.
This is not just about cheats. Many solutions, tips and tricks, as well as Freezer addresses can be found in this collection.
Meanwhile you can find more as 3400 Games Cheats and solutions in the database, and there is always more.
The database is currently completely in German. If we receive enough donations for the website, we have planned to integrate a proper online database, which will also be available in English.

| Amigaworld.net News posted by radzik on 17-Mar-2018 9:32:40 (1603 reads) |
After a long break, I'm back. :) This time with a really long story, please welcome my guest - Steve Jones - from Amiga 1500 to AROS!
http://www.amigapodcast.com/2018/03/amicast-episode-26-steve-jones-from.html
Steve is an Amiga guy for the very long time. And he is active one! He is always around hardware or software for Amiga, and now he is a huge fan of AROS. As we know AROS flavor of Amiga is not so popular, so it is a great opportunity to get know AROS world!
We talked about topics:
- A1500 (old and new!),
- Siamese System,
- Gateway,
- All Amiga Developers are Angels ;),
- Vampire,
- AROS.
A must have is Steve's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/clusterukdevelopment

More than two years in the making, this update to AmigaOS4's best audio CD extraction tool brings a whole bunch of new features, improvements and fixes. Release notes for this version :
- updated mp3.encoder, flac.encoder and oggvorbis.encoder (linked with the latest libraries)
- added an option to start ripping automatically when you insert a CD (AutoRip)
- added an option to eject the CD when ripping is finished
- CD-ROM discs containing only data are no longer passed off as audio CDs
- the drawer template in Preferences now accepts the slash character so that encoded tracks can be stored in multi-level directories
- reimplemented program window snapshotting (requires AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition)
- when ripping in iconified state, the program icon text will now indicate which track is being encoded
- CDDB query/download no longer opens a waiting requester; instead, the process is indicated graphically in the status bar
- implemented automatic revision bumping in CDDB submissions to minimize server rejection
- fixed the submission of the "extended data" CDDB field (it actually never got exported in previous versions)
- disc metadata is now properly converted to UTF-8 before uploading it to the CDDB database (previously, UTF-8 conversion only worked for CDDB downloads)
- fixed track length calculation bug affecting CDs with a data track (extraction would terminate with a read error resulting from a miscalculated length of the last audio track)
- fixed the behaviour of the Eject/Insert button so that the gadget imagery is always in line with the current function
- if the output path set in the Preferences is invalid, ADRipper will now try to create the directory for you (instead of just showing an error message)
- improved the handling of illegal characters and multiple spaces in track names
- reworked the drive scanning code at program startup to prevent unwanted mounting of the Google Drive and/or the DropBox handler (if installed)
- fixed a bogus "Out of memory" error where an AISS image was in fact missing
- various GUI improvements and fixes
- recompiled against the latest public SDK
- updated documentation and translations
Have fun!

BOH ADVANCE released |
| software OS4 posted by saimo on 10-Mar-2018 16:01:20 (1217 reads) |
Today BOH receives the 18th free update, a massive update that closes its almost 11 years long development life, brings new features, new missions (for a total of 100!), and countless other improvements, and earns the game the ADVANCE tag.
BOH ADVANCE can be purchased from itch.io. The current owners of a copy can download the updated version for free from the same address (who does not have an itch.io key can get one from https://www.retream.com/BOH/get_key.php?code=, where is the personal copy code).
The update is performed by installing the new version over the old one using the supplied installer.
This update:
* adds 23 new missions:
* most of them are very easy to average;
* many of them are based on unusual and different design/logic;
* some of them make use of the new features introduced by this update;
* some of them are multi-phase and multi-mission;
* fixes/improves pre-existing missions (also making use of the new features);
* increases the chances of finding a recharge in explosive objects from 25% to 33%;
* adds levels labels;
* adds the disabling of message points;
* avoids the teleporting of the EM to the same square of the RM or a square too close to it, even when the RM is on a square which does not have walkable squares around (this avoids multiple consecutive collisions that quickly drain the shield);
* avoids that damage is done to the shield while an enemy is hit (this, in practice, fixes for good the repeated EM-RM collisions issue that, in rare cases, might have caused an almost instant death);
* makes the auto-orientation of connected staircases choose the best orientation context-wise and RM-wise;
* adds a rendered-on-the-fly background to mission information and pause screens;
* excludes the video modes with dimensions bigger than the desktop's;
* replaces the stars with thumbs-up icons for resolutions;
* allows the handling of special events/keys while displaying a notice;
* removes the joypad analogue axis support;
* reworks controls reconfiguration:
* adds an end notification;
* changes the joypad actions;
* removes the aborting by means of [ESCAPE];
* removes the overlapping of button and keys flags;
* makes other changes;
* improves the themes settings:
* reworks the configuration handling;
* adds [F2] for quick switching;
* improved the themes:
* touches up the wallpapers of the themes "Sci-Fi" and "Underground";
* fixes/improves the rotating lamp graphics in the themes "C64" and "Sci-Fi";
* optimizes/improves:
* the handling of levels lighting;
* the allocation and referencing of enemies objects;
* the EM spawning and AI;
* the universal function for the interpolated rotation of BGRA graphics;
* the tiles handling module;
* the controls handling;
* the screenshot grabbing;
* the SDL initialization;
* some code bits here and there;
* replaces Mix_Volume() with Mix_Pause() + Mix_Resume() to (un)pause sounds when the game gets (un)paused (this hopefully fixes the occasional sounds corruption on Windows);
* fixes the picking up of the aiming device (the check was broken, so it was possible to pick it up multiple times);
* fixes the printing of the levels number (the last digit of levels (-)100-109 was not printed);
* fixes the loop counters usage in m_CreateMap() to allow more than 65535 permanent animations;
* fixes the disappearing of information in the menu when an alphanumeric key was pressed (the handler returned an action insted of doing nothing);
* fixes the error message and the log file name reported by records submission;
* fixes the work path on Windows (%TMP% was statically expanded at compile time);
* adapts the code to the latest version of the custom framework the game is built on;
* improves the icons:
* adds more icons;
* touches up graphics;
* adds the icon size choice to the AmigaOS and AROS installers;
* fixes the MacOs and Windows icons sizes;
* fixes/improves/updates both the user's and the developer's manual;
* reworks/updates the artwork;
* fixed/improves the installers;
* brings other minor changes/improvements/optimizations.
