In the early 90's, the shareware games "Wibble World Giddy" and "Giddy 2" were released for the Amiga. The proved pretty popular, but then in 2001 the third game, "Giddy 3" was released for MS-DOS!

Software News : SDL_Mixer screw up - let me make up for it!

Posted by spotUP on 2009/2/6 5:25:35 (2187 reads)

I messed up my release of SDL_Mixer, i added MIDI support and screwed up MP3 and OGG.

I have fixed that now, so if you downloaded the new release (1.2.7-r2) download the new fixed 1.2.7-r3 that i just uploaded. Everything including MIDI works in this version. You can also use AmiUpdate, it will pick the correct working version for you if you have enabled the SDK database.

With the release of the AmigaOS SDK V53 it was time for an update to the official AmigaOS version of Expat 2.0.1.

Four library flavours are now supported:

2. static newlib (libexpat.a)
3. AmigaOS library (expat.library)
4. AmigaOS shared object library (libexpat.so)

Expat may help serve as an example for other library authors that want to support all the library flavours available in AmigaOS.

Grab it from OS4Depot.
