Blick Online: Defender of the Crown - Comeback after 18 years
Peter Glauser has found this article on the most important Swiss newspaper 'Blick':
»There is a reason for hope: The classic «Defender of the Crown» will be published as a reworked version already next spring. For all those who do not know this game: In «Defender of the Crown» the C64- or Amiga-player had to win the rule over England.«
Have a look at the title link for the full article.

On autumn the game will be published by Cinemaware for Xbox, PS2 and PC. (ps)

Graphics Adventure Engine: Update of 'Inga'
A new udpate of the graphics adventure engine "Inga" is available on the Inga homepage (title link), from now on. The following has changed:
  • The sound plugin now enables voice and sound output via AHI.
  • RAM cache system reworked.
  • CLI programs can be executed with the "Extern" command.
  • Single character animations are only loaded if required.
  • Animations now appear as fast as if the engine would run at 20 fps (no frames skipped)
  • The scroll text in sequences now also moves with constant speed, independant of the actual number of fps.
  • No more mouse pointer in sequences, anymore.
  • Characters can be displayed that far on top of the screen, that e.g. only the feet are visible (this would have caused graphic erros in the past).
  • Running characters will reach their target point accurate on pixel (previously only roughly).
  • Animated objects can be displayed as still picture, whereas the single picture to be viewed can be set using Inga-Skript (see compendium under "Objekt-Standbild").
  • Objects "bound" to the mouse pointer are now displayed along with thier animation.
  • PlugIn system reworked (safer now).
  • PlugIns can be disabled by thier options (tooltypes).
  • Miscelleanous little bugs fixed.
So, only audio CD support is still missing, now. (ps) (Translation: mj)
