Two online Amstrad CPC emulators have been updated with bugs corrections and new features :
SAMdisk v3.8 by Simon Owen is out since the 9th March 2014.
The utility supports transfers between floppy disks and disk images, and is designed to work with almost any soft-sectored disk format compatible with the PC floppy controller, including some copy-protected formats.
Low-level floppy device access requires the fdrawcmd.sys driver to be installed.
Version 3.8, last updated 9th March 2014 - Added support for SuperCard Pro .scp flux disk images (MFM+FM) - Added --pll option to control PLL method with flux image scanning - Fixed --head giving ambiguous option error due to typo - Fixed KBI-19 format slightly overhanging track wrap - Improved EOT handling of flux images containing just one revolution - Changed --slow-step to --old-drive to better match usage
Phactory (a development environment targetting Amstrad CPC)and Phortem's (demo) code source are available on NoRecess web site.
Amstrad Today, a good site about repairing and upgrading your Amstrad CPC has now a little brother Homebrew.AT (english and french) which is about Amstrad CPC homebrews.
Here is a HD video by Metr81 of the Amstrad CPC game La Guerra de Gamber by ESP Soft released on the 30th January 2014 for the 30th anniversary of the Amstrad CPC.
It's a robocop/green beret like game with a horizontal scrolling with 3 levels, and a bonus level like the Prohibition game between each level.
You can download La Guerra de Gamber on Amstrad.ESP.
The principal musical theme was written by McKlain and can be heard on SoundCloud.
Sugarbox is a new Amstrad CPC emulator (beta) for windows. Beware, there are some problems with windows XP SP3, it works without problems on windows 7 or 8.
Ces ordinateurs sont dangereux is a book written by François Quentin about the Amstrad CPC. Long lost, it is now available with the agreement of the author on Amstrad.eu's forum as PDF (Epub link, PDF link, as Amstrad.eu is not up atm). Happy reading ! Thanks to ced64k for his scanning work.
The 6 issues of the newspaper CPC Attack! are available on CPCWiki (in the forum, not in the CPC Attack! page of the site).
These issues went out from June to Novembre 1992, following the defunct Amstrad Computer Use newspaper, those first 14th issues were published directly by Amsoft.
Light Forge is a vertically scrolling shoot them up for Amstrad CPC, C64 and ZX Spectrum, edited by FTL (Faster Than Light) in 1986. A very good game, one of the few I was able to finish on Amstrad CPC in the good old times. Music is written by Ron Hubbard, sadly it is missing from the Amstrad CPC version. So to listen it you will have to go for the C64 version of Light Force on Youtube.
