It's finally time to release it: Amiberry v8.3.0 is now out! ko-fi.com/post/Amiberr... #amiga #retroComputing #emulation #openSource

I've been a little quiet, but that's because I've been a little busy as well. So, I wrote a new update about the upcoming releases of my two biggest projects: ko-fi.com/post/End-of-...

End of July Status update

ZZ9000 v2.2.0: your Amiga now offloads TLS, JPEG/PNG, MP3 & .7z to the card — ~16% faster HTTPS on a 68060, a hardware watchdog, GUI firmware updates, and an open SDK v2. Free & open. 🚀 #Amiga #RetroComputing 👉 github.com/BlitterStudi... 👉 github.com/BlitterStudi... SDK: github.com/BlitterStudi...

Something is cooking in #Amiberry-land...

ZZ9000 SDK update: - zz9k.library done. - JPEG decoder done, including Datatype. - PNG decoder mostly done, including Datatype (transparent ones are not showing correctly yet). - mpega.library drop-in replacement done. - archive support (extraction-only for now) done, including CLI tool - […]

Now that we have stable FW/Drivers for the ZZ9000, it's time to start working on the most interesting part: native library to accelerate common operations using the second ARM core. Datatypes, mp3 players, C2P operations, are just some of the things that can benefit from this. #Amiga

Sometimes, you just want to push that old piece of software to the limits, and beyond... This is from that same old 1990s-era Lightwave 3D 5.0, on the #Amiga (which a bit of modern plugin magic on top)

Current mode: #Amiga hardware debugging

amiga-lw-plugin v0.7.0 is out for LightWave 5.x on AmigaOS: Fresnel/PBR scene-save fixes, LensFlare now supports up to 50 flare sources, and ObjSwap is faster on large sets. Before/after renders below. github.com/midwan/amiga-lw-plugin

Scanline support for the ZZ9000 is done

Working on the #ZZ9000 #Amiga #RTG card next. Time to optimize that performance a bit, since there hasn't been any new firmware or driver updates in quite a while! #OpenSource

I’ve released LightWave 3D 5.x plugins for AmigaOS: ObjSwap, Fresnel, PBR-lite shading, and LensFlare, built with a GCC m68k-AmigaOS toolchain. Latest v0.6.7 improves LensFlare for dense specular/reflection scenes. github.com/midwan/amiga...

I sat down with a friend today, and we decided to have an Amiga hackathon day. A few hours later, a new Lightwave 5.x plugin was born: github.com/midwan/amiga... #Amiga #RetroComputing #OpenSource #Lightwave #Raytracing
