Ivan AVILA (21Bloques) is actually working on an Amstrad CPC version of the great classic Pitfall 2 the lost caverns first out on the Atari VCS 2600 console in 1984. I am waiting for it impatiently.

As usual a bit late announcing it but Amstrad Eterno X is an Amstrad CPC meetin which will take place at Barcelone (Spain) on the 25th October. Pour plus de détails allez lire leur compte Twitter et leur site web.

And 5 days later it will be Benediction Coding Party 5 (France) where I will go as usual with 42 other people and Eliot of course.

The XiAleste by h2w is a recreation with modern components of an upgraded Amstrad CPC 6128 presented on Hackaday (the sound is upgraded notably). The PCB of the XiAleste is available as is the FGPA code source of the XiAleste both on Github. You can read informations on the XiAleste on CPC Wiki.

You will find below informations from 2019 about the Aleste 520EX which inspired the XiAleste.

The Aleste 520EX is a russian clone of the Amstrad CPC and the MSX. It works not with AMSDOS but with the MSX DOS (see this russian site in english). There was already a thread about the Aleste 520EX on CPCWiki, but this time Sebastian Blanco is talking about the Aleste kit he just bought. Finally he isnt the only one in the Amstrad CPC community to have one. If you are interesting it's seems to possible to buy one kit by writing to tetroid at inbox ru like Sebastian did.

You can see a youtube video of an Aleste 520EX running the Phortem demo by Condense (and MSX games at the start of the video).

A modified version of Caprice32 permits to emulate at least in part the Aleste 520EX.

ZEsarUX 12.1 is a multi platform emulator, Amstrad CPC and PCW (and many others). You can compile the unix sources directly or get a binary for :

• linux 32/64 bits
• Mac OS X
• Windows
• Raspberry pi (raspbian)

First read the article on Mark Eric Jones who is the engineer behind the conception of the Amstrad CPC and PCW then list to the spanish interview below done by Felisuco.

PintaPanta Plus is a windows utility by G. Gálvez which permits to convert pictures in a .SWC file format that you can read on Amstrad PCW with the PantaVisor utility. And the result is quite nice !

Amstrology for Amstrad CPC is a music disk made by Eliot (code and graphics) and Warlord (music). It was released for the Jumalauta Party in Finland.

Arkos Tracker v3.3 by Targhan is available on his web site. The site has many tutorials. This version is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux (Intel and ARM).

SugarDS v1.3 is an Amstrad CPC emulator for Nintendo DS and DSi by Nige Rideout (github). This version features :

• Use [[CPM]] in title of .dsk file to launch game via |cpm
• Improved FDC emulation so games like BAT load
• Improved PPI emulation so keyboard scanning works in games like Barbarian
• Fixed the map keys handling so changing the first key slot doesn't always revert back to 'A'
• Other minor improvements and tweaks under the hood

And if you are curious and you go check his Github profile, you will see that he has written several other emulators for Nintendo DS and DSi.
