Game: Freespace Update for PPC and 68k
There is now an update for the full version of Freespace available at www.hyperion-entertainment.com (title link).

We released yesterday an update (both PPC and 68k versions) for the full version of Freespace. This update adds some new explosion sound effects to the game, additionally the mouse control and the CD32 Joypad Control was enhanced. Also the AlphaTexture settings for the Warp3D Renderer of Freespace are now always configured correctly, so that Voodoo 3 owners do not need to set the Alpha manually. The update is for download for registered users of Freespace for AmigaOS. There are two seperate archives, one for PPC, one for 68k. (ps)

Dealer: Turtle Lightning Amiga Software (Texas) goes out of business
Turtle Lightning Amiga Software has been in business since 1992 supplying Amiga users all over the world with quality affordable software and hardware.

Owned and operated by Terry Fike out of Midland, Texas, USA, Turtle Lightning Amiga Software has finally decided to go out of the Amiga business.

Accordingly, all of our prices are rock-bottom, and when a title sells out it will be removed from the catalog. Prices are just pennies on the dollar of the original retail, so get 'em while they last! (ps)

AROS Update from 12.02.2002
Work on the Amiga Research Operating System is making progress. Details of the most recent development can be found over at the AROS website (title link). In summary, various bugs all over AROS have been dealt with, a lot of changes to the underlying framework (the build process) were introduced, the Palm flavor has been worked on and both minor and major enhancements have been made (including the long awaited "pci.hidd", which is meant to communicate with all sorts of hardware within the computer thru higher level hardware interfaces, such as the brand new "nvidia.hidd" - although still in a juvenile stage, the "Hardware Independant Device Driver"-system is expected to grow in the future).

Amiga Future: New Q2 Screenshots
There are some new Screenshots of our Quake 2 port (which is in the final stages of developement) available at the interactive section of Amiga Future (see title link).

This time these screenshots are coming from the "engine modification" Q2Max. With our port we are optionally adding support for Q2Max. There will be two executables in our port, one for the "normal" Quake 2, and one for Q2Max. Q2Max enhanced (among other things) the particle effects of Quake 2 in a *major* way (the new effects really remind a bit of Quake 3 IMHO!) There is no big speed loss. Please note, that Q2Max has quite huge memory requirements - but well, it is only optionally. You can as well run the "normal" Quake 2 executable. Both executables are included in the port and can be installed parallely. Both Quake 2 and Q2Max can be played together in Multiplayer without any problems. Steffen Haeuser. (ps)
