Hi there, my project is related to Amiga and creating accelerator cards for Amiga computer. Why Amiga if we have modern computers, for those who are nostalgic those computers are important as air. So if you investigate thera are some accelerators for amiga but I m talking about creating worlds first FPGA Amiga accelerator, and I m working on this project more then 2 years. But, I m from Bosnia and here we don't have money or equipment to do any real job related to electronics. I spend more then 3 years collecting money for this project and now I ended without money to finish it. There are number of people in the world who wait for something like this.

SAM460Lite & AmigaOS4.1 for DjNick.

Thu, 22 Dec 2011 10:08:09 +0100

Most of DjNick's music and graphics was done on Amiga back in the days, and now, he want to help AmigaOS4 to get some better design by making improved skins, icons and graphics. But its pretty hard to be working effectively on gfx design of OS and OS components, when you don't own the actual machine. So, this bountys aim is to get Nikola a sam460EX Lite motherboard & AmigaOS4.1 licence. The Sam460 is EUR 610,- excl. shipping and vat. So we should end at around EUR 850,- which is what we are trying to collect.

AMP package - phase one (Apache, MySQL and PHP) .

Phase one:
Will bring an up-to-date Apache, MySQL and PHP to AmigaOS4.1 via AmiCygnix.
AmiCygnix version will contain a minimal AmiCygnix installation, so you won't need to install the large AmiCygnix base package.
A bounty of minimum EUR 500 must be reached for Edgar to port these applications.

DEADLINE: Phase one was initially scheduled for 2010.03.01 but due to difficulties with a part of the package deadline has been postponed to 2010.06.01 giving Edgar an extra 3 months for the work.

Meanwhile you can give version 1.0 of the package a try. It is available for download on http://os4depot.net/?function=showfile&file=network/server/misc/aamp-amicygnix.lha

Phase two:
When Phase one is completed we will open a bounty for phase 2. It consists of a fully native port of Apache, MySQL and PHP utilising whatever the current version of AmigaOS4.x has to offer.Being these ports targeted to developers, they will be as robust as possible.
A bounty of EUR 300 must be reached to get the fully native port.
Full payment of phase two has been promised by Elwood, thanks for the great support.

As the bounty has reached the target we have closed for donations.
Further donations for Edgar Schwan and his work on AmiCygnix can be made here: AmiCygnix donations.

Easy-to-use GUI for E-UAE

Tue, 11 Aug 2009 12:08:39 +0200

On AmigaOS4 and the new hardware many old games and applications can only be ran
via E-UAE.
Unfortunately the file based configuration of E-UAE is in no way userfriendly nor
easy, which prevents a lot users from using it. Thus this bounty shall result in
an easy-to-use GUI for E-UAE on AmigaOS4. Very much like the well known GUI of

JIT enabled E-UAE for AmigaOS4.1

Tue, 05 May 2009 07:01:42 +0200

This is a bounty for a JIT enabled version of E-UAE for AmigaOS4.1.

E-UAE on AmigaOS4.1 (and MorphOS) supports only interpretive emulation and is quite slow compared to f.ex. winUAE.
What we really need is JIT 68K code emulation to speed things up. Especially AmigaOS4.1 users with slower machines would gain a lot from a JIT version of E-UAE.

The JIT will automatically become open source and other PPC OS, be able to benefit from it.

For UPDATES please visit The Big E-UAE JIT blog

Gnash - The Flash Movie Player

Thu, 04 Dec 2008 14:13:18 +0100

Port of Gnash - The Flash Movie Player to AmigaOS4.1
This bounty shall bring the well-known and widely-used Adobe Flash (formely
Macromedia) to AmigaOS as standalone player and it's webbrowsers as a NSAPI
plugin.

UPDATE 28.02.2010: The Gnash standalone player have been finished for a long time but speed is a problem and Flash isn't much fun as a slow standalone technology.
Regarding the plugin there's also some problems.
Andrea has done a good job on the port but as it turns out Gnash in it's current incarnation isn't really usable for our purpose.

UPDATE 29.09.2009: Preview of standalone player available for download at http://www.amigasoft.net/pages/gnash/req.asp

WxWidgets - phase one.

Tue, 02 Dec 2008 22:07:19 +0100

Port of WxWidgets to AmigaOS for easier access to cross-platform applications.
Examples of applications using WxWidgets is KiCAD, Audacity
and(originally from the Amiga) Audio Evolution 5.

Having WxWidgets available on AmigaOS4.1 will give us easier access to a
huge number of applications and it will allow Amiga developers to reach a wider audience if they develop using WxWidgets.

As wxWidgets is a big project, we decided to divide it up into a bunch of stand-alone bounties
(called phases) which built upon each other and finally form a complete wxWidgets port together.

This bounty is the first phase of a complete port of the current stable
wxWidgets 2.8.10 to AmigaOS4.1. Phase 1 covers the wxWidgets modules
wxBase and wxCore, whereby the already done work in the wxwidgets-aos project
on sourceforge shall act as a starting point.

Multi-touch Screen

Mon, 01 Dec 2008 02:20:37 +0100

Project closed. Without OS support for more than one pointerposition and action it is hard to see this being really usable. (Troels)

Multi-touch (or multitouch) denotes a set of interaction techniques which allow computer users to control graphical applications with several fingers.

Multi-touch consists of a touch screen (screen, table, wall, etc.) or touchpad, as well as software that recognizes multiple simultaneous touch points, as opposed to the standard touchscreen (e.g. computer touchpad, ATM), which recognizes only one touch point. This effect is achieved through a variety of means, including but not limited to: heat, finger pressure, high capture rate cameras, infrared light, optic capture, tuned electromagnetic induction, ultrasonic receivers, transducer microphones, laser rangefinders, and shadow capture.

Many applications for multi-touch interfaces exist and are being proposed. Some uses are individualistic (e.g., Microsoft Surface, Apple iPhone, Apple iPod touch, Asus EEE PC, Apple MacBook Pro, Apple MacBook Air, HTC Diamond, Meizu M8 ) . However, multi-touch technology is mainly used to incorporate collaboration into the computing experience.
