Idea for the 8bit2amiga project was born at the end of the 90's. When I was 14-15 I wrote my first Henry's House game room on Amiga. In 90's transferring graphics from Atari to Amiga was not as easy as it is today. Of course, the source code and that little work were lost for over 20 years, but a few months ago on the AOZ.Studio newsgroup an idea came up to write such a port. And so I completed the first room of Henry's House years later. More rooms will be released soon. If there is interest from you after Henry, I will start another 8-bit computer game. |

This project aims to re-create the original Rejuvenator, and eventually improve on the original design. Schematics and board artwork are complete, and have been fabricated and tested. Several design errors on the original Rejuvenator which required bodge wires and trace cuts to rectify have been identified and eliminated in the new design. |

This is a replica Printed Circuit Board (PCB) from the Commodore Amiga A500+ computer. This board is based on the last A500+ board that was produced by Commodore (Model 8A). The board was created to allow Amiga A500+ computers that had damaged or faulty PCBs to be successfully repaired. This can be achieved by moving all components from an original damaged board to the replica board. Some parts can also be replaced by modern alternatives. |

The A314 project provides a Raspberry Pi expansion to the Amiga 500 through the trapdoor expansion. Much of the 'magic' is being able to transparently access chip RAM without interfering with the performance of the Amiga itself. However, the Amiga 500 is also the ONLY Amiga model to feature this peculiar expansion interface. This board will add a standard 56-pin "trapdoor" interface to the Amiga 2000 and Amiga 1000 equipped with a Rejuvenator. |

The plan was to make a fully working A2000 mobo from a scratch, meaning, to get a brand new PCB, solder it all up and make it work. That was my first task, which turned out to be quite easy but also time-consuming. As a bonus, it was also a very relaxing experience. |

As many owners of the Amiga 4000 boards know they contain a battery and several electrolytic capacitors which when age and leak cause severe damage to the motherboard. The goal of this fund raiser is to have the original board converted to schematics and Gerber files. This will allow new boards to be manufactured. The schematics will allow future updates and changes to the design of the board for future enhancements or improvements. |

Floppy drives have an sensor to detect track zero position which tells the drive the positioning of the first track on the disk(hence all tracks). On some drives it is mounted on the same PCB as the capacitors and removing the PCB will dislocate the adjustment for track 0. If the screw holes for the PCB are elongated (thus allowing for adjustment) then there is a good possibility the track zero sensor is on the PCB. One way to determine bad track zero adjustment is by formatting a disk on that device. It will manage to read and write a disk formatted by itself, trying to read a disk written on another known good drive will fail because the track offsets differ. Adjustment of the zero stop should be done using proper equipment and not by trial and error. .. in other words, (TL;DR) do not touch the track zero sensor adjustment |

October 21, 2000, Melbourne, Australia - It is with great pleasure that we are able to announce the first new Amiga hardware in over 6 years. The AmigaOne, our first consumer product, will be targeted at the desktop and workstation market. Further products to follow will cover the markets from Personal Digital Assistants and upwards. All these products will run a single piece of software, the revolutionary Amiga Digital Environment (DE). We completed the AmigaOne specification three months ago, and dubbed it the "Zico". It is a specification and not a product because Amiga is a software company, not a hardware manufacturer. The ability of the Amiga DE to host itself on multiple hardware and operating system platforms frees us from hardware dependency and gives our partners and our customers the freedom to chose the hardware that best suits their needs and tastes. |

If you had an Amiga during the 16-bit home computer era it’s possible that alongside the games and a bit of audio sampling you had selected it because of its impressive video capabilities. In its heyday the Amiga produced broadcast-quality graphics that could even be seen on more than a few TV shows from the late 1980s and early 1990s. It’s fair to say though that the world of TV has moved on since the era of Guru Meditation, and an SD video signal just won’t cut it anymore. With HDMI as today’s connectivity standard, [c0pperdragon] is here to help by way of a handy HDMI upgrade that taps into the digital signals direct from the Amiga’s Denise chip. |

An experiment in alternate history: what AmigaBASIC could have looked like, had it been developed further tailored to the Amiga OS. What AQB is not: AQB does not try to be a clone of any particular BASIC dialect - neither QuickBASIC, FreeBASIC or VisualBASIC nor any particular Amiga specific BASIC implementation like AmigaBASIC, ACE, HiSoft, GFA, Blitz or AMOS. While it strives to be as compatible as possible with the Microsoft BASIC family of languages (and certainly has many QuickBASIC traits) the primary focus is on the creation of a modern, clean, Amiga OS-compliant, future-proof BASIC that is tailored towards modern Amiga application development. |

Amiga Report Magazine was published between March 1993 and April 1998. As one of the first regularly-published online magazines, it broke new ground for the information revolution to come in the Internet age. Amiga Report published over 100 issues, overseen by three editors. The first, Robert Glover, modeled the publication after the long-running Atari-focused STReport, and quickly migrated the magazine from a text format to the pioneering AmigaGuide hypertext language. As Commodore struggled and the Amiga commercial market deteriorated in early 1994, Glover handed off the magazine to assistant editor Robert Niles. Niles, along with regular contributor Jason Compton, used Amiga Report as a platform to update Amiga users on the Commodore bankruptcy proceedings. Compton became the third and final editor in late 1994. |

I'm not trying to compete with the Amiga FAQ that appears in Amiga newsgroups periodically - it covers all kinds of things that I don't plan to mention at all. I'm also not trying to compete with manuals - this page is mostly for people whose Amiga didn't come with one. There will definitely be plenty of things missing from this page - e.g. instructions for the text editors and Arexx, detailed syntax of commands, description of Workbench preferences programs. |

This site is dedicated on preserving Amix's history and sharing information and instructions on what Amix is, how to install it (either on real hardware or in emulation) and what can you do with it. Mainly, it tries to cater to people who wish to run AMIX for whatever reason on their hardware. By documenting experiences with it, it is hoped that subsequent SVR4 junkies will find the way more smooth than it might have been without any guidance at all. |

The Amiga Video to Pi HDMI is a card designed for the "big box" Amiga video slot. Using a Raspberry Pi Zero, it can convert and output HDMI video from the Amiga native video formats (only OCS modes are supported). Background: Inspiration for this project began when I saw online the open source Amiga-Digital-Video project by c0pperdragon. It would be more convenient to not have to remove the Denise and run a cable to the rear of the chassis when the Amiga 2000, 3000, and 4000 already have a video slot which can be used for this purpose. Intended use: With the Amiga Video to Pi HDMI in your Amiga 2000/3000/4000 video slot, you get a HDMI video port exposed from the rear of the chassis. This video port provides the Amiga's native video in a format that modern monitors and televisions readily support. |

This project implements a board which plugs into a big-box Amiga Video Slot (A2000, A3000, A4000) and uses a Raspberry Pi Zero to process the Amiga display video in realtime to provide HDMI video output for the computer. The Amiga Video to Pi HDMI is a card designed for the "big box" Amiga video slot. Using a Raspberry Pi Zero, it can convert and output HDMI video from the Amiga native video formats (only OCS modes are supported). The schematic design is based loosely on LinuxJedi's CPLD version of the Denise socket Amiga-Digital-Video module for OCS and ECS Amigas with a 48-pin DIP Denise. It uses software for the Raspberry Pi Zero that is developed by hoglet67's multi-platform vintage hardware RGBtoHDMI project. |

(AmigaOS 1.x) screen shots. In 1985 Commodore introduced the Amiga 1000 with Amiga Workbench Version 1.0. Amiga Workbench loosely mimics the Macintosh finder introduced the year before. Workbench, together with its OS component Kickstart, would later be renamed to "AmigaOS". |

The purpose of this project is to develop an open source Amiga 2000 PCB in the EATX form factor. What is EATX? It is an ATX variant that allows slightly deeper PCBs, measuring 12 x 13 inches (305 × 330 mm). These are referred to as Extended ATX, or, EATX. The length of Zorro II cards, not to mention the abundance of components on the Amiga 2000, makes EATX the best choice for this project. |

This project implements a board which plugs into a big-box Amiga Video Slot (A2000 or A3000) and uses a Raspberry Pi Zero to process the Amiga video output in realtime to provide HDMI video output for the computer. It also partially works with the A4000, but is limited to 12-bit video (the A4000 chipset supports 24-bit) and only OCS resolution screen modes. |

I saw on discord that MickGyver had built some useful stuff for blitz basic providing syntax highlighting, function lists, auto-completion etc. I decided it looked like a useful thing to do and I set about building something similar for Amiga E. Mine doesn't attempt to do any shortcut keys for compiling, its purely to add cosmetic touches when editing Amiga E source code using Notepad++. |

AmigaPython is the Python version for AmigaOS. Not only is it largely compatible with the 'mainstream' Unix Python version, but it is also a real Amiga program by adding some exciting Amiga features to it. |

Based around the original custom chips of the Classic Amiga(tm) computer from Commodore(tm) I’m ready to run all your favorite Classic games and applications. My core design focuses on compatibility, stability and flexibility. My designer is an experienced hardware engineer and he started this project around 2010. Since then I’ve undergone some major design changes. Early boards were larger (ATX+) and based solely on through hole components. In the latest revision (they call me Amy-ITX now …) all non Commodore custom electronics are super small SMD (Surface-Mount Devices). Now I’m a standard Mini-ITX form factor. This not only makes me smaller in size (about 50%) but also cuts cost and makes me more environmentally friendly. |

There was a magic moment for a few years around the end of the 1980s, when home computers were better than professional ones. That’s a mighty grand pronouncement, but it refers to the crop of 16-bit home computers that genuinely were far better than nearly all PCs at the time for multimedia tasks. You could plug a sampler cartridge into your Amiga and be in the dance charts in no time, something which sparked a boom in electronic music creativity. As retrocomputing interest has soared so have the prices of old hardware, and for those still making Amiga music that cart can now be outrageously expensive. it’s something [echolevel] has addressed, with an open-source recreation of an Amiga sampler. |

An experiment in alternate history: what AmigaBASIC could have looked like, had it been developed further tailored to the Amiga OS. What AQB is not: AQB does not try to be a clone of any particular BASIC dialect - neither QuickBASIC, FreeBASIC or VisualBASIC nor any particular Amiga specific BASIC implementation like AmigaBASIC, ACE, HiSoft, GFA, Blitz or AMOS. While it strives to be as compatible as possible with the Microsoft BASIC family of languages (and certainly has many QuickBASIC traits) the primary focus is on the creation of a modern, clean, Amiga OS-compliant, future-proof BASIC that is tailored towards modern Amiga application development. To be more specific, FreeBASIC is the source of many core AQB language constructs (in many respects AQB can be considered a subset of FreeBASIC) with inspiration for Amiga specific commands mainly from AmigaBASIC, ACE and HiSoft. Main target is Amiga OS compliant application development. |

Why: To preserve data from these disks for the future. Also, a normal PC can't read Amiga disks due to the way they are written. |

ARIX is a set of libraries inspired by the AmigaOS application interface, placed on top of a linux kernel. The libraries provide basic memory management (allocation, reallocation, filling memory etc), thread and process creation, inter process communication and many more. The ARIX libraries themselves does not depend on any other high-level linux libraries apart from some very low level things, such as /lib/ld-linux.so or the dynamic/static library dependencies introduced by the gcc. |

This is the premise behind our Hackaday colleague Bil Herd’s autobiographical chronicle of time in the mid 1980s during which he worked at Commodore, maker of some of the most iconic home computers of the day. We follow him through the three years from 1983 to 1986 as hardware lead on the “TED” series of computers including the Commodore 16 and Plus/4, and then the Commodore 128, a dual-processor powerhouse which was arguably the last of the big-selling 8-bit home computers. |

A few years back, the Andy Warhol Museum ran into an unusual problem. They wanted to display digital pieces the pop artist created on his Amiga 1000 back in the 1980s, but putting the vintage computers on the floor and letting the public poke around on them wasn’t really an option. So the team at [Iontank] were tasked with creating an interactive display that looked like a real Amiga, but used all modern technology under the hood. |

This site is dedicated to users of 8 bit Commodore Computer hardware. I had been doing consumer electronics repair work since 1964. I retired from my "day" job as a repair tech at the University of Washington in Seattle back in 2009 and likewise don't do consumer electronics repairs at home any longer... except for Commodore and related 8 bit computer hardware such as the C64 and C128 series and their peripherals. I don't repair the Amiga line or the PETs but I do make a replacement power supply for the Amiga A500, A600 and A1200 in addition to ones for the CBM C64, C128, VIC20E (early) and VIC20CR (late) and Plus/4 computers. {Ray Carlsen is a LEGEND!} |

That initial sense of amazement at the Amiga’s unique capabilities is one of the reasons why the platform continues to have rabid fans some 30+ years later and why a small group of skilled enthusiasts have designed and manufactured a brand-new circuit board, dubbed the Amy-ITX, that brings actual Amiga hardware to the current mini-ITX form factor. |

This book provides an introduction into the programming of the classic AmigaOS using C as well as assembly language. It is aimed at programmers who have not programmed for the Amiga before as well as programmers who did this years ago and would like a refresher before diving back in. A general knowledge of computer programming is therefore assumed. |

This is my attempt to get Samba 2.2.x ported to the Amiga. My first Amiga port required SAS/C and a number of strange tricks had to be pulled to get it to support the kind of environment Samba needed. But with the introduction of Samba 2.2.x many of those tricks did not work any more, which is why I decided to attack the problem at the root, namely the runtime library. |

In 1986-87, Commodore released the Amiga 2000. The machine was technically similar to the Amiga 500, but had a larger case and was designed to be more expandable. Costing around $1,500 (US), the Amiga 2000 was designed to compete with the much more expensive Apple Macintosh II (~$5,500) and IBM PC (~$3,000). Follow along as we crack open the second generation he Amiga 2000--the Amgia B2000-CR. Updated 1/8/2011: Dave Haynie, lead engineer for the Amiga 2000 (B2000-CR), has posted several comments about the Amiga 2000 and his worked on the project in this gallery's discussion forum. I encourage everyone to read his posts. And, I would like to thank Mr. Haynie for taking the time to share his experiences. |

Even though I have already replaced the capacitors in my A4000's PSU.. I just didn't trust it! Oh and the cooling fan was just too noisy! So I thought to myself, bugger it I've got a spare A4000 PSU, I'll convert an ATX PSU and refit it in the it's case. So the first thing I did was find an ATX supply that not only had enough current to supply the A4000, but was smaller then the original case so I knew the PSU PCB will fit the original Amiga PSU case. |

The Commodore 64 is by far the most famous and successful computer Commodore ever made. But there were numerous Commodore computer models over the years. Some were also successful. Some were complete flops. Overall Commodore had a good 18-year run, but it could have been so much longer and better. Let’s take a walk through the Commodore computer models from the beginning in 1976 to the bitter end in 1994. |

I’ve been spending a fair amount of time with the local Commodore nerds restoring my A1200, A2000, and A4000 systems. We’ve also been developing a piece of hardware to connect classic machines via their Serial interface to modern systems called the GuruModem - but I’ll have a lot more about that in some other posts. In the mean time, I wanted to share how to move larger files without the use of physical or virtual floppies: the magic of NComm. |

Since the advent of liquid crystal (or LCD) monitors and televisions with LED backlighting, and the replacement of the Scart / Scart socket by the HDMI port, it is become difficult to obtain a satisfactory image of his Amiga provided with a Scart socket. Thorsten Schubert worked for a few years on a device that could convert the analog video signal of the Amiga Classic (as well as the audio signal) into a digital signal, thus making it possible to use a monitor with an HDMI port. The result is the D520 , the first version of which dates from 2019. The D520 is therefore an adjustable external box with a generator of scanning lines or "scanlines" managing the specificities of Amiga resolutions. It converts the analog video (and audio) signal from your Amiga computer to a digital version that can be displayed on a monitor, TV or projector with digital video input. |

It's been 12 years now since I switched from my classic Sony CRT television (with Scart RGB input) to a progressive CRT display. I've started using linedoublers back then to enjoy the more vibrant picture a progressive tube can provide. About 8 years ago I've switched to a LCD television and have upgraded quite some times since back then to better models (from a Samsung 32" to a LG 32" to a Sony 52" XBR5 and currently ending up with a 52" Sony HX905). Videoprocessors (enhanced linedoubling devices) has been a central part of my setup since back then. While I own a XBox 360 and a PS3 I still like to play classic videogames. I like my PC Engine, I love my Saturn and the PSOne's got a nice collection of classic videogames as well. In addition I've got a PS2 which provides a nice lineup of titles for everyday's use. For years I've strived to gain the perfect picture on my LCD display. I've test lots of different video devices and by setting up this little page, I want to provide an overview on what's available on the market today. {this page covers dozens+ on devices that will allow an older device to connect to modern display hardware. Definitions, write-ups, pictures, screenshots and more!} |

Can you run Doom on the Amiga? No, not really, and arguably that was one of the causes for the computer’s demise in the mid-90s as it failed to catch up on the FPS craze of the PC world. [Krzysztof Kluczek] of the Altair demogroup has managed not exactly to remedy that status with the original article, but to show us how a potential contender could’ve been designed for the unexpanded Amiga hardware back in the day. |

This project started in 2015. I had 300 floppy disks that I kept from my Amiga 500 and Amiga 1200 period. I planned to buy a second hand Amiga after I sold them for a new PC. That of course didn't happen. The data stored on the floppy disks was mostly my personal files, videos, music modules, painted pictures, 3D objects and renderings etc. And a complete backup of my system and data files. I wanted to reconstruct the files that I used to have. However, the Amiga disk format is not something any PC could read, at least not in Windows in a simple way. The disks were in a poor state with fungus and dust. So I set out to clean them. The 3D printable Floppy cleaning kit was a result of this. |

Stop getting tricked by people! Amiga is not a 16-bit computer. It is a 32-bit computer as AmigaOS is 32-bit. Amiga is not an 8-bit sound computer. It is a 14-bit audio-capable computer which means that all Classic Amiga computers are able to play 14-bit audio. To get 14-bit Audio on any Classic Amiga. You don’t need AHI and you don’t need to hack it. The 14-bit possibility is a feature of the Amiga hardware. So, let’s make a deal? Stop saying that Amiga audio is 8-bit because the true fact is that it is 14-bit. It means that Paula can produce “almost” CD-quality audio. You will also get rid of the Paula noise too. |

GL4ES is an OpenGL 2.1/1.5 to GL ES 2.0/1.1 translation library, with support for Pandora, ODroid, OrangePI, CHIP, Raspberry PI, Android and AmigaOS4. For AmigaOS4 translation done via ogles2.library (written by Daniel "Daytona" Muessener), and which in turn works on top of warp3dnova.library (written by Hans de Ruiter). Minimum requirements for ogles2.library are 2.8 and for warp3dnova.library it should be 1.65 With GL4ES we have not only OpenGL1.x as with MiniGL, but OpenGL 1.x, OpenGL2.x and even some limited OpenGL3.x support. Also it is faster than MiniGL and bug-less. Written by Sebastian "ptitSeb" Chevalier. AmigaOS4 version handled by kas1e, but all actual AmigaOS4 related code still done by ptitSeb. |

In yet another Amiga post, let’s talk about adding networking to an older machine. The “big box” Amiga systems, (2000, 3000, 4000) have the ability to add a Zorro network card. The 600 and 1200 allow for adding a PCMCIA network card, but there are some issues with those (we’ll get to that). But if you have anything else, you’ve been in a much harder task to get some networking. You can use a serial interface and good old PPP/SLiP but instead, we’re going to talk about something else. The PLiP Box and the GuruNet. |

HippoPlayer is a music player for macOS, Windows and Linux that mostly focuses on music made for systems such as Amiga, C64, and gaming systems. While HippoPlayer supports MP3, FLAC, Ogg Vorbis, etc it's not the main target. The original HippoPlayer is something I used a lot when I had my Amiga. Over many years I tried various players and while some of them hold up none of them has been what I been looking for. Before starting this project I looked around quite a bit for alternatives and nothing really fit the bill. |

It was 30 years ago this week that Commodore released its landmark, long-time-coming Amiga 1000 computer–the first 1990s computer in a field full of 1970s retreads. Yes, it was a 1990s computer in 1985. It had color and sound built in, not as expensive, clunky, hard-to-configure add-ons. It could address up to 8 megabytes of memory, though it ran admirably on a mere 512 kilobytes. Most importantly, it had fully pre-emptive multitasking, something that previously only existed in commercial workstations that cost five figures. It was so revolutionary that even NBC is acknowledging the anniversary. Being a decade or so ahead of its time was only the beginning of its problems, unfortunately. |

Source code to the 1980s Amiga product, version dated 1992. A fellow named Matthew Kott reached out and asked me to release the source code to HyperCache if I still had it, so I dug around, and sure enough I did, so I opted to post it here on Github. For various legal and liability reasons, I cannot open-source it at this time, but it's yours to explore and tinker with for nostalgia. If anyone still has Lattice C out there, I'd love to hear if it can still be compiled! If there's sufficient interest, I'll look into the logistics of open-sourcing it. For now, though, it remains (c) 1992 Silicon Prairie Software. Authorship: Primarily Dave Plummer, though it was initially kindled by a sample that I found which showed how to hook the disk driver, and that code likely remains. Also, I ultimately hired someone to work on V2.0 once I got to Microsoft, as I was pretty busy, but now I don't have a name! So some of the code was written by someone else on contract, but I'm still trying to figure out who! Thanks to Matthew for thinking to ask! Dave |

I've noticed MANY people are also having problems with manuals for their hardware. They don't know how to install something, because the don't have the jumper settings, or are missing some relevant info from the manual. I've decided to start a web page for that HERE. Have you ever lost an install disk for a piece of hardware, and then realize that the company is bankrupt? Ever had a cool day, and found a cheap accelerator for that old a1000, but don't know where to turn for the software? Well, here's the place! Take what you need, and send ANY software or manuals for hardware here, so others may benefit too! Hard_Drive_Controllers, Misc_Hardware, Ethernet_and_Serial, Accelerators, Audio, Video_Cards & Manuals. |

A horizontal SHMUP for the line of classic Commodore Amiga computers, Inviyya will feature 6 unique organic levels each with its own enemies and bosses, couple of special weapons, 3 layer parallax scrolling and nice music and sfx. Should work on every existing Amiga with at least 512k Chip and any other form of 512kb extra RAM (chip, slow or fast), PAL or NTSC ( for NTSC I recommend some slight acceleration above standard 7mhz 68K. Game is playable as it is, but it will look smoother in a couple of situations with a bit extra oomph.). |

I purchased my first Amiga 1000 in October 1985 from Chaney Computer in Newport News, VA (and I have reason to believe it was the first Amiga sold in the state). |

Originally released in 1987 for the MSX2, Metal Gear became an instant classic. Designed by the legendary Hideo Kojima, it spawned a huge franchise in stealth gameplay and is considered one of the top games from the platform. While there are ports for the NES, Spectrum and C64 they were missing a lot of the key details from the original game. An Amiga version was once advertised in a magazine but sadly was consigned to myth and legend. That is until now. |

This disk is made for getting any classic Amiga easily on network with good file transferring compatibilities. It could be helpful in emergency situations or when building up a completely new system. It's based on stripped down version of AmiTCP/IP 3.0b2 stack and couple of other freeware programs. Almost everything on the disk is packed and cutted down to minimum. You should install some full TCP/IP stack and latest full drivers for permanent use. Use this disk only by booting from it as it is! You've been warned. |

The Amiga, well known as the best and greatest computer ever designed, is nonetheless a platform of yesteryear. Its 68K, and later PowerPC, architectures have both been abandoned by the mainstream, and its attractive grey industrial design no longer graces store shelves. That doesn’t mean the platform is dead however, with diehard shredders like [Claude Schwarz] working hard to keep it alive with projects like PiStorm. PiStorm is a Motorola 68K CPU emulator, running on a Raspberry PI 3A. The Pi uses its GPIOs to interact with a CPLD chip, which acts as the logic glue to allow the modern single board computer to emulate the Amiga’s original processor. However, it’s more than just an easy way to replace or upgrade a CPU. It also offers additional features, like retargetable graphics acceleration, SCSI disk emulation, and the ability to run whatever Kickstart ROM you so desire. |

Hello everyone! I'm excited to finally release the X1Boot Manager into the X1000 Linux world! :-D The X1Boot Manager is the culmination of a two year research and development project and then some I call the X1Boot Project. The aim of the X1Boot Project was to prove if: 1. Linux could be booted directly off an X1000 HDD (or SSD.) 2. Linux could be loaded from a standard AmigaBoot menu. 3. Linux could be managed from a Linux boot editor. Well I'm pleased to say I was successful in all three aims! |

It was hard for me not to go completely over the top for the Commodore Amiga when I became aware of it in 1985. Here was a machine incredible graphics, stunning sound, amazing games, and a general sense that the thing could do most anything. I wasn't the only one; Amigas are still in use to this day for professional graphics work and video editing. But at the time, it just changed everything. Here's some files discussing the minutae of being a programmer on the Amiga. {lots of good info 'older' found here} |

20 YEARS IN THE MAKING AND 100% FREE – PUTTY SQUAD OUT NOW FOR AMIGA. I am delighted to announce that having worked closely with some of Amiga’s incredibly passionate community, Putty Squad, one of the most memorable platform games of the 90s is finally being released for the Amiga; and it’s available to download now, completely free of charge. Without the help of Phil B-B from the Amiga community, and of course John Twiddy & Phil Thornton, this never would have happened. I would like to thank them all for their hard work. |

In the 1980s the home computer market was dominated by the likes of Atari, IBM, Tandy and Commodore and one of the most popular machines was the Amiga. The most popular of the range was the Amiga 500 and with Claude Schwarz's Raspberry Pi Amiga PCB known as PiStorm you can seriously boost the power of this humble home computer. |

A drop-in replacement PCB for the Amiga Agnus chip. This is WORK IN PROGRESS and not tested yet. If you generate gerbers and order PCBs from this source you are doing so completely at your own risk!. It is a prototype, treat it as such. Current design is a four layer board designed for soldering Pin headers 1.27 mm pitch 4 x 21 single row right angle, 0.4 mm square pins. |

This board is designed to allow me to re-engineer Agnus (cycle exact) and enable us to build Amiga's into the future. It was built out of necessity to get me a 8372AB for my ReA3000. But i should be able to reassign the pins for other Agnus revisions (provided the power pins are always the same). Design is an ICE40HX4K FPGA + Level Shifters. It solders into a PLCC TH socket like Megachip. I'm sure someone will ask why I didn't put ram on here.. Simple. I'm a purist. I want this chip to replace Agnus and nothing else. |

In the past we’ve talked about one of the major downsides of working with vintage computer hardware, which of course is the fact you’re working with vintage computer hardware. The reality is that these machines were never designed to be up and running 20, 30, or even 40-odd years after they were manufactured. Components degrade and fail, and eventually you’re going to need to either find some way to keep your favorite classic computer up and running or relegate it to becoming a display piece on the shelf. If you’re like [John Hertell], you take the former option. Knowing that many an Amiga 1200 has gone to that great retrocomputing museum in the sky due to corroded PCBs, he decided to recreate the design from scans of an unpopulated board. While he was at it, he tacked on a few modern fixes and enhancements, earning his new project the moniker: “Re-Amiga 1200” |

Recently, I was lucky enough to receive a big haul of retro computer gear from a friend who was emptying out his garage. Even better, the haul was almost entirely old Amiga gear — my favorite computing platform of all time. Upon returning home, I gleefully sorted through the boxes, powering things up one by one. Amazingly, everything worked… except for one lonely Amiga 500+. I was greeted by a dull grey screen. This wouldn’t do, so naturally, I got to work. |

Who are we? For a very large group of enthusiastic users of retro computer hardware (such as Commodore, Atari, Sinclair ZX-Spectrum, and 386 / 486PC), we are looking for hardware modifications to maintain and update these retro computers for the current time. The focus is on computers, but you can also think of older Synthesizers, samplers, etc. We are constantly looking for new applications that we would like to make available to you. |

[retrohax] has provided vintage computer guidance for years, and part of that guidance is this: sometimes using paint as part of restoration is simply unavoidable. But the days of tediously color-matching to vintage hardware are gone, thanks to [retrohax] offering custom-mixed spray paints in Amiga 500 Beige, C-64 Beige, and ATARI ST/SE Grey. (At the moment only delivery within Poland is available due to shipping restrictions, but [retrohax] is working on a better solution.) |

The RGBtoHDMI interface converts the "digital" RGB video signal from vintage computers like the BBC Micro or PC MDA/CGA/EGA to HDMI or DVI compatible with most modern TVs/Monitors. The interface comprises a Raspberry Pi Zero and a specially designed Hat containing a small CPLD. Custom firmware on the Raspberry Pi, in conjunction with the CPLD, is able to correctly sample each of the supported video modes to give a pixel-perfect rendition. The HDMI output is locked to the input so there are no frame drops, repeats or tears and it also has low lag of around 4 milliseconds (less than a quarter of a frame). |

The RGB4ALL is a universal video converter based on AD724 chip. It takes RGB signal on an input, encodes and outputs it to more convenient Composite video or S-Video sockets which are more often seen in modern TVs. It was tested with Amiga 500/600/1200, Amstrad 464/6128, Neo Geo MVS and other hardware that outputs RGB signal. |

Coding in ARexx on the Amiga can be great fun. It's a quirky little language by modern standards, nevertheless I find it to be a highly enjoyable experience. Still, ARexx was born in 1987, and it lacks many of the comforts we take for granted when working with younger scripting languages. I've always felt that it's suffered greatly from the inability to include other scripts, allowing the programmer to build a small library of functions that can complement the built-ins. I also frequently miss a Read, Eval, Print Loop. |

RxMUI is the definitive solution to create GUIs in ARexx macros. RxMUI uses MUI, which is one of the best thing happened to Amiga so far, despite last strange decisions made by someone. It means you will benefit of the MUI philosophy programming in your ARexx macros. RxMUI will also introduce you in the wonderful world of the Object Oriented Programming in the most easy way, which is from a simple interpreted language like ARexx. Read the RxMUI documentation for more info. Here you may find a list of all the MUI classes and all the libraries needed to properly run RxMUI examples. |

Although I no longer use any of my A500s regularly, I had a few spare hours during a recent rainy day and I decided to try out an idea I had. The intention was to power an A500 SCSI controller and hard drive off the same power supply that powers the A500, eliminating the 2nd power supply and it's attendant complexity and snarls of cables. I tried this idea on both a GVP A500 HD+ and a Commodore A590. |

Many AGA Amiga users have experienced irritating flashing display "trashes" appearing in higher resolution AGA display modes like DblPAL or Multiscan. In general opinion these artifacts are caused by AGA chips overheating, being loaded with larger amount of video data to process. This opinion is so common, that even Jens Schönfeld in user manual for his Indivision AGA scandoubler, recommends attaching a radiator to the Alice chip if trashes appear on the screen. Unfortunately it does not work, as I've learned myself. |

The Amiga computer was a legend in its time. Back when the Macintosh had only a monochrome 9-inch screen, and the PC managed just four colors and monotone beeps, the Amiga boasted a 32-bit graphical operating system in full color with stereo-sampled sound and preemptive multitasking. It was like a machine from the future. But the Amiga’s parent company, Commodore, suffered from terminal mismanagement and folded in 1994, just as PCs and Macintoshes were catching up technologically. The platform, like many others before it, seemed to be at an end. So when a brand new Amiga computer arrived at my doorstep in 2017, you can imagine it was quite a surprise. Accordingly, the Amiga X5000 is a curious beast. In some respects, it's more closely related to its predecessors than either modern PCs or Macintoshes. Yet this is a fully current machine capable of taking on modern workloads. How such a device came to be is a fascinating story, but that's not our goal today—let’s dive into what the experience of using the X5000 is like. |

This is the Amiga developement tools project that host a number of tools that can be used to develop applications for AmigaOS and Amigaoid systems. At the moment only the version for the latest AmigaOS version (4.x) is in a relatively good shape while this is probably not the case for the other systems. The main repo is still hosted on a SVN repository under https://sf.net/projects/adtools. It uses the concept of vendor branches but this is making quick progress nearly impossible, so a new approach is tested here. In contrast to the original approch, build products that are based on other projects (e.g. gcc) are not imported directly into this repository. Instead only the patches that need to be applied to a given base version (e.g. stock gcc 6) are directly stored and maintained. |

In the world of retrocomputing it’s the earliest models that garner the most interest, usually either due to their rarity, or sometimes just because of their flaws. The Commodore Amiga 1000 is a case in point, it was the machine everybody wanted but its A500 home computer sibling made the Amiga a success story. Peripherals for the 500 are plentiful then, while those for the 1000 remain a rarity. Thus it’s a treat to see an A1000 peripheral appear in the present day, in the form of a memory, clock, and SD card expansion called the Parciero. It packs 8Mb of SRAM to give the Amiga some truly quick fast memory, something that would have used an eye-wateringly expensive brace of chips back in the day but now has just a single package. |

Back in the late 1980s, Commodore pulled the masterstroke of selling several models and generations of Amiga that were all powered by essentially the same speed 68000 and associated chipset. Sure, there were differences in the RAM and other options you could fit and later models had a few extra graphics modes. Still, the entry-level A500 did substantially the same as the high-end A2000. No matter, we the fans all wanted a 2000 anyway, though we typically found ourselves unable to afford one. It’s 2021 now though, so if you never achieved the dream of owning your own A2000, now you can build one of your own! It’s the task [Drygol] has taken on, with an A2000 made entirely from new components, save for a few salvaged Commodore-specific chips and connectors. |

The Buffy Accelerator, so named because of it’s Vampire killing ability, is a zero-FPGA, zero-CPLD, pure-CPU accelerator for the Amiga Computer. It is designed to fit inline with a 64 DIP socket and should be compatible with the Amiga 500, 1000, 2000 and CDTV. It’s based on the amazing Octavo OSD335x System-in-Package which hosts a 1GHz ARM Cortex-A8 processor (about 2000 MIPS), 512MB or 1GB of DDR3 memory as well as various peripherals. It runs PJIT from a small eXecute-in-Place (XiP) Flash ROM and is not designed to run and general purpose operating system itself. |

PJIT is part of the Buffee Project. PJIT is a real-time version of JIT that avoids the traditional issues of dynamic memory allocation and non-determinism. It is designed to run as a bare metal process on ARM microprocessors operating in big endian mode to provide transparent access to a traditional 68K bus. It is useable with ARM SoC that integrate only a modest (by today's standards) amount of memory. |

Whenever I see code that asks what the native byte order is, it's almost certain the code is either wrong or misguided. And if the native byte order really does matter to the execution of the program, it's almost certain to be dealing with some external software that is either wrong or misguided. If your code contains #ifdef BIG_ENDIAN or the equivalent, you need to unlearn about byte order. |

One of the most challenging topics in the C / C++ programming language is how to handle endianness properly. There's a surprising amount of depth here. I've been programming in C for a while and I feel like I keep learning about this subject, even when I thought I'd seen it all. |

The Apollo Team’s Vampire FGPA-based accelerators are also among the most sought after upgrades for Amiga performance enthusiasts. There are an array of Vampires out there for various model Amigas, but the Vampire V4 is the newest and most powerful. And one iteration can actually function as a standalone Amiga – it doesn’t need to be installed in an existing system. The Vampire V4 is an Altera FPGA-based standalone computing device, which recreates a Motorola 680x0 class CPU and all of the custom Amiga chips inside the FPGA, but add some new features and capabilities as well. The “Apollo Core” that runs on the Vampire’s FPGA is a code-compatible Motorola 68K processor, that also offers approximately 3x – 4x the performance of the fastest actual 68060, which was the highest-performing 68K series processor available during the original Amiga’s heyday. |

As most of you are aware, there are different ways to create Amiga games, either through Amos, Blitz Basic, RedPill or through the rather lackluster Backbone. But one such engine is making its presence known, and that’s Earok’s Scorpion engine; a constantly updated piece of software that gives developers the tools to create graphically impressive games, running at decent frame rates even on the lowest spec’d Amigas. |

In 1985 the Amiga 1000 came to life. With it the Amiga Kickstart v1.0 and the Amiga Workbench v1.0 also came into our lives. All of us who´s been around an Amiga in the 80´s or the 90´s are familiar with the Amiga Kickstart logo (the left hand holding a disc) but are we all clear about why the disc is held in the left hand? |

Use the screen you want on the computer you love. We're long time fans of the Amiga franchise here at Tom's Hardware and can't ignore our biases when it comes to awesome Raspberry Pi crossover projects—like this HDMI hack for the Amiga 500, created by a maker known as Reinhard Grafl. The project essentially uses a Raspberry Pi to work with an adapter board to convert the Amiga video signal into HDMI output. It's designed to work with Amiga versions that use a socketed DIP Denise chip. |

TOGA, The Other Group of Amigoids, was formed in 1991 by Lawrence Brown. He had moved to California from another state where he was involved with an Amiga user group called Amigoids. Lawrence is no longer involved with our group. He currently works for Cisco Systems in Menlo Park, CA. While with Cisco and with Cisco's help, he was actively involved in getting computers (specifically Amigas) in to local schools. |

A lot of hardware-related news today, but this one will probably mean the most to us alternative OS fans: it seems AmigaOS 4 has found hardware to actually run on. The board will have an IBM 750GL at 800 MHz with 1MB of L2 cache, and will support processors up to 1Ghz. Also: “One of the biggest changes to the Amy05 design from our first released specification is the addition of the AMD Geode CS5536 companion device. For Project Prometheus/Amy’05 this becomes Amy’s Southbridge.” The current board is is a development board, and will be made available in a limited quantity for hardware testing/OS4 development. |

Did you know that, as of 2015/06/02, there are more than 20,000 packages in the mods directory on Aminet? Yes! That's more than 20,000 modules to play and enjoy! There are also thousands of modules on Haxor.fi, Modland, Modules.pl . So, why not have a program that could automatically download one module at-a-time, extract it, and play it using your favorite player? This is the purpose of AmiModRadio! It can download, unarchive, and send modules to your favorite players: AmigaAMP, DeliTracker, EaglePlayer, HippoPlayer, MultiPlayer, or TuneNet. {GREAT WIKI PAGE!!!!} |

It’s not often you hear about new PPC-based accelerators for the Amiga, but today I received an e-mail from an Amiga user in Norway (Mads). He wrote me some words concerning an upcoming PPC-accelerator for the Amiga 3000 and Amiga 4000. Thanks a lot for the information mate. The board is called UltimatePPC and it is a multi-function CPU-card for the Amiga computers mentioned above. It plugs into the CPU slot of the machines. The specifications are very interesting. |

Vamos is a tool that allows to run AmigaOS m68k binaries directly on your Mac. It emulates the AmigaOS by providing implementations for some functions of the Exec and DOS library. It will run typical console binaries that do not rely on user interface (intuition) or graphics stuff. Its main focus is to run old compilers and assemblers to have some sort of “cross” compilers. This approach will not run any applications or games using direct hardware register access – for this a machine emulator like P-UAE is the tool you will need... |

vasm is a portable and retargetable assembler to create linkable objects in various formats or absolute code. Multiple CPU-, syntax and output-modules can be selected. Many common directives/pseudo-opcodes are supported (depending on the syntax module) as well as CPU-specific extensions. The assembler supports optimizations (e.g. choosing the shortest possible branch instruction or addressing mode) and relaxations (e.g. converting a branch to an absolute jump when necessary). Most syntax modules support macros, include directives, repetitions, conditional assembly and local symbols. |

But as our policy concerning Amiga antivirus couldn't fit Safe Hex International's policy, we decided to leave and start on a fresh, with our own Virus Help Team, which started on 1 january 1995, and this means that Virus Help Team in Denmark celebrated 25'th anniversary in 2020, so we are here if you have any virus problems. |

The Amiga has stayed alive even though it has had little or no development since Commodore went bust three (now ten, 19 April 2005!) years ago. Why? Here I have collected what various people have said about the Amiga - people who use it or who have bought it. (Note: This collection should NOT be taken as a complete list of the good points of the Amiga; many are not mentioned since they are either found on other platforms or are so well known in the Amiga community that users take them for granted.) First, let's hear what Gateway, who purchased the Amiga, said about it, then the rest is devoted to comments by those who use it. |

The information resource for the Commodore Amiga. Welcome to the classicamiga wiki site. This Wiki provides information, tutorials, FAQs and guides about the Amiga and Amiga emulation. It has been created to help the Amiga community, and Amiga users, find out and explore as much about the Amiga as they can. Initially the existing articles from the main classicamiga.com site's FAQs and Tutorials section have been ported over to the Wiki, and then this Wiki will be fully replacing that section of the main site. This will allow this part of classicamiga to grow and expand with member participation. We hope you all find this Wiki useful. Please post comments, feedback, ideas and suggestion on the classicamiga forum. |

For most Amiga users it is easy to find Classic Amiga Software. It’s really not to find for users as the Amiga community is very connected. But if you are new to Amiga, you might want to expand what AmigaOS can do? That’s why I decided to create this guide so anyone, either new or old. Have a guide to check. |

I defiantly celebrated the 25th anniversary of Windows 95 by buying myself an Amiga 500. That relic from 1987 did everything Windows 95 did, and it ran an operating system that first appeared on the market 10 years before Windows 95. It was easily 10 years ahead of its time. But it flopped. Here’s why Amiga failed. There wasn’t any single thing that brought Amiga and its parent company, Commodore, down. If anything, the Amiga is a cautionary tale of how good engineering won’t save you if you get everything else wrong. |
