Gopherized, my Amiga gopher client, now is able to search for a text in a page, search next and prev are also implemented.

Next step: extend the search function to the text viewer.

The second image shows all the changes/fixes 😀 :amiga:

Anyone want to try my little app?

I'm having troubles with #Amiga OS3 which requires #MUI 3.8 or better, I've MUI 5.0 but I think it is broken 😁
Anyone is welcome for a test on #AmigaOS3 , #AmigaOS4 and #AROS .
Have a look at the screenshots (windows & Linux), the purpuse is to calculate sha & checksum of the files dropped in the window. I also have builds for #LinuxPPC and #LinuxARM , #Linux versions requires GTK2 .
Anyone interested please drop me a message :amiga:

My app on Linux

My #Gopher client for #Amiga is getting configuration files 😁

You can see the 'color scheme' file and the 'key map' file, but I still need another one for the misc options and fine tuning like buffer sizes, color depth, etc...

Key & Yuri always by my side 💖

Today was a good coding day, I managed to insert images in my game documents reader, the image must have the same palette of the doc reader screen, I will center the image tomorrow, but for now all is fine!

The tag is:
[IM]WWWxHHH:filename
WWW=3 digits width
HHH=3 digits height

Isn't it nice? :amiga: I mean the cat.girl 😍 😂

Worked on #TheGate, my #Amiga game. After having planned how terminals work, I've cleaned the code and implemented a simple message system that uses the info area in the HUD section.
The message can be configured as "Info", "Warn", "Alarm" and with a custom duration, after the duration is expired the message will be removed :amiga:

In the screenshot you can see what happen when the player want to interact with a locked (by a terminal) furniture.

Here are some features I implemented in my terminal simulator within my #Amiga game #TheGate :amiga: 😃

Lot of fun coding this stuff! 😍

This video shows a demonstration of my terminal simulator printing characters at different speedsm with several colors, pauses and screen clearing methods.

AMOS Pro is very limiting when you have to return values from your procedures because only one variable can be returned.

I cannot live with it so I have implemented a simple, very simple, stack handler to push to & pull variables from, this way, when inside a procedure I can push my return values & when I exit I can pull them as results.
Using a stack is important because nested procedures would mess everything if using static arrays!

#TheGate for #Amiga

I started to code the talk-interface and I realized that I have to implement almost all the tags I already coded for the terminal simulator, only a few of them are excluded while a couple must be added, like for example a tag to show who is talking (with an optional portrait). I decided to use a separate screen (8 color, 320x34) and a sprite to point the character on screen that is talking. In a couple of days i should be able to show something 😁

Are you kidding? 😅

Experimenting with the first minigame for #TheGate for #Amiga , the screenshot shows the game at max difficulty, you have to find the password moving around the letters in the grid in a given time.
The password to find and the timer will be visible in the dot-matrix display on the bottom, but it's not definitive.

Still have to code:

• The arrows buttons events
• The scrolling zones

Some progresses 😁
As you can see I'm a mess with the graphics but that's not the point, this screen is 960x600 in EHB 64 colors, still not compiled but also still missing many features I want to add.
Moving while jumping need some optimization, but collisions with walls seems good.
It runs on WinUAE emulating the #A1200.

A brief video on YT about Gopherized, my #Gopher client for #Amiga :)

My #Gopher client can now download files! :D
It uses a little 8k buffer where data is received and dumped to a file until the end.
I was scared because in interpreted mode Print # performs very bad! Something like 40Kb/s while in compiled mode it reaches 225Kb/s
:amiga:

#Gopher client for #Amiga

I'm working on a simple cache system to avoid to download over and over the same content.
I've used a very simple hashing algo to build the cached file names (in the form host@selector as you see in the screenshot), it should work...
I've also intruduced an expire value in hours for the cached files: expired files will be removed when the client is started.
All these features are optional.
:commodore: :amiga:

allanon, 2 months ago to amiga Italian

New feature:

• hot key to set the current page as the home page

Fixes:

• Made various fixes and optimizations, I also got rid of a Guru that sometimes was crashing the system. I think there is still something within the #BSDSocket library because if I try to call a proc while doing network stuff sooner or later the system ... BOOM! 😁
  Anyway I can only thanks @TopazRabbit for this game-changer lib.

I'm near to a first RC! :amiga:

#TheGate #Amiga status update

I'm spending some time to implement hero's bubbles that can be used as hints for the player. I also need to add another state-bit for doors because I could lock a door until something is done.
For example: I don't want the player to exit the room until he has read a document, if the player try to exit before this event the hero will show a bubble saying "I should do something before going out". that's the plan :commodore: :amiga:

My second Amiga 1200. What an absolute beauty! This is an Escom version (made in France), released after Commodore's bankruptcy in 1994. I'm very happy to add this gem to the collection 😍

Il valore del token Normie crolla a seguito dell'exploit dello Smart Contract

Secondo CryptoPotato, il token #Normie ha subito un crollo del 99% in 3 ore per un exploit dello smart contract. Questo incidente ha temporaneamente ridotto la sua capitalizzazione di mercato da $ 42 milioni a $ 200.000. Gli sviluppatori della moneta meme Base stanno attualmente negoziando con l'individuo responsabile dell'exploit per recuperare il 90% dei fondi rubati.

Perché IT Wallet non è una forma di controllo e ricatto. Ecco come funziona

Circolano teorie secondo cui IT Wallet sarebbe uno strumento di manipolazione e controllo dei cittadini.
Il timore riguarda la gestione dei dati personali.
Il portafoglio digitale fornisce moltissime opzioni per controllare i propri dati che ora non sono disponibili.
Quindi, IT Wallet e perché non è uno strumento di manipolazione e controllo.

A chi serve la “gamification” sul lavoro?

Le dinamiche tipiche dei giochi sono ormai diffuse per motivare i dipendenti e farli rendere di più, ma non vuol dire che lavorino davvero più volentieri e meglio
