ARBBS - Amiga Retro BBS / Re: AmiExpress (/X) BBS Running on a Vampire 4SA
« Last post by intangybles on March 01, 2025, 10:02:34 pm »
Full details will follow, including an article on our "project: page.

But the last update in the story is (Taken from the development chat group)...

Hello again everyone! I have the AmiExpress BBS running pretty well now on the V4SA now. The later "core" did help greatly but sadly "RoadShow" (1.13 & 1.15 tested) as "Fantastic" as it is for "most" internet application is just not the go for an AmiExpress BBS on the V4SA. Getting the balance between compatibly, stability and function has taken a bit of time.

Very pleased with the results now. Time at last to "flesh" the BBS out now that its stable! So we are now up and online! and..

I think will be the first "fulltime" Amiga BBS running on a Vampire 4SA?

Thanks' again and looking forward to your visit!

Enjoyed my very short amount of time with this.  Best I got was 75 in 28 seconds.

Played on my Amiga 1200, no cheats or passwords used.

Apologies again NinjaKat! Just could not get to the Game!

General Discussion / 3D Library for PiStorm-equipped Amigas
« Last post by Marcio D. on February 27, 2025, 09:46:23 am »
There's a crowdfunding campaign that's aiming to deliver a 3D library for PiStorm systems equipped with Pi4 or Pi CM4:

https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/3d-for-pistorm


The campaign organizer is Steffen Haeuser, creator of the AmigaOS ports of Quake II and Heretic II.

The developer is Dennis Boon, who is very experienced with Amiga low-level hardware development.  100% of the net campaign funds will be going to Dennis, as compensation for his time and effort in the project.

The finished library will be made open-source.  This 3D hardware acceleration will bring a higher resolution, faster fps, and more stunning visuals to 3D gaming on PiStorm-equipped Amiga systems.


The campaign has surpassed its original modest funding goal, so the project is going ahead full steam.  There are a little over 50 backers so far, but fortunately the campaign is open for late pledges.  If this project piques your interest, even a contribution of $10 or $20 would be fantastic.  What's most important is to increase the number of backers to something closer to 100.  Doing so will motivate the organizer and developer to push through the challenges described on the campaign page.


If you've got any questions about the campaign, please email Steffen Haeuser directly at:  tirionareonwe@gmail.com


Thanks for reading!
