[ Atariscne.org - News ] Sopwith - A 40 Year old MS-DOS game finally comes to the Atari ST!

Some more old ‘new game’ news is heading our way.

This unexpected gift comes courtesy of Neil Rackett of Mesmotronic, who created the 3D model of an ST running in a browser window.

This time, he’s ported an ancient MS-DOS game ‘Sopwith’ to the ST. 

It features intense biplane action through charmingly retro vector style graphics and arcade style gameplay, with characteristic MS-DOS beepy early PC sound. Interestingly, this game was going to get a dedicated ST version back in the day, but this did not happen, until now.

It can be downloaded from his Github repository. Good luck figuring out the controls!

CiH - 22.3.26.

[ OpenMPT - Open ModPlug Tracker ] OpenMPT 1.32.07.00 released

This small update to OpenMPT 1.32 is mostly a bugfix release.

Here's a list of the most notable changes in this version:

• Plugin editors can now receive SysEx messages from OpenMPT's MIDI recording.
• Choosing "Copy Pattern" from the order list context menu always copied the currently displayed pattern, not the one on which the context menu was invoked.
• Work around apparently broken channel negotiation in MaxSynths DR-910 plugin.
• Small playback fixes for MOD and ULT files.
• On recent versions of Windows 11, MIDI recording stopped working after receiving a SysEx message.
• MIDI export from MOD or S3M did not correctly export implicit note-offs when playing a new note on the same channel.
• The instrument note map category was missing in keyboard settings.

For a complete list of changes, have a look at the full version history. If you are upgrading from OpenMPT 1.31 or older, read the release notes to get a glimpse of the biggest changes.

With a massive delay: we present recordings of the Evoke 2025 Seminars. Unfortunately we had a issue with the sound of the seminar by Bodo / Rabenauge. This is why we present only two recordings:
