Game: Tales of Tamar - Amiga Public Update V0.48R1
Dear players,
it is our pleasure to announce the third official update to the Amiga
version.
New features in V0.48 R1:
- rebellion of town added
- new town anims
- executables are now crunched (Bitmap-Brothers- or Team17-Style :-))
- improved memory management in SetPeople, BlitFigur and Motion, flickering
- start anim fixed
- Residencedownload now goes offline immediately after downloading the turn
and before decoding it
- ResidenceUpload shows more progress information
Bugfixes in V0.48 R1:
- hardware check bug with MorphOS/Pegasos fixed
- memory for CloseAllPattern is properly freed now
- bugfix with loading/unloading units
- slider in report screen activated
- training of armies with more than one part didn't create a figure. fixed
- towns at the worlds turning point can have ports now
- if the capital was lost and thus the town with ID 0 disappeared, Bardstale
and diplomacy created a new town with Id 0
- SMTP Auth problem with some servers fixed
- If two or more towns were founded at the same time, names could be messed up
A word about rebellions:
Rebellions are a way of stopping players growing uncontrollably. From a
certain size of a realm onwards you need to have town guards or risk that
town
rebelling against you. A rebelling town can no longer be controlled. You
need to send
a big enough army to restore order. Rebelling towns are also easier to
take
over for other players of course.
Soon, there will be another update that will introduce the option of
taking
vassals. This makes it possible to extend your power even further and
ascend
through the ranks towards emperor. Unfortunately, the test phase of this
feature is not completed yet.
The current version should also please users of a Pegasos and MorphOS.
There
had been a problem with registration but this is now fixed.
What else is going on around Tales of Tamar? Quite a lot, actually...
First and foremost, we would like to thank AmigaFuture [a German Amiga
print
magazine] for the new "Messenger from Tamar" feature. It appears in every
issue and reports the current events on Tamar. Georg Breitsprecher sums up
updates, events, tips and tricks and rank lists. We are very pleased about
this
co-operation with this magazine.
We were also reviewed in the current issue of AmigaPlus [another German
magazine]. In the four page long report, we received 6 out of 6 points. A
very
gratifying result. Thanks to Nico Barbat and the team.
We would also like to thank the Amiga community for the award as Game Of
The
Year 2002, which was also hosted by AmigaPlus. Even if the sales don't
show
it yet, the still active Amiga users show us that it is still worthwhile
to
support the market. We know that there are more active users out there and
we
hope to convince some of you to buy this game as well :-)
Meanwhile the PC version is progressing equally well. We recently received
an offer from Vivendi Universal, which is a real honor for us. Vivendi
Universal is a publisher of high-quality games, the whole line of Blizzard
games,
for example.
Last but not least, we would like to point to another event. On February
28th 2003, the third Tales of Tamar con will take place at castle
Hessenstein.
This time, we will take it slow and just celebrate in a dignified way.
Unfortunately, the event is booked out completely already, but we will
report from
it.
Until the next update, we remain,
with best regards and saying "Amiga forever"
Wolfen & the ToT-Team

Abyss: Extralife Demo from 1998 released as Mpeg!
The classic demo Extralife, by the mostly German group Abyss, has now been released as an mpeg for all interested fans who don't
have an Amiga.
On the homepage of the group many other different demos can be accessed,
as can a multitude of graphics such as Cyclone, Acryl, Jcs, etc. Abyss played a decisive role in the international demoscene a few years
ago, with their fresh designs and good ideas. Nowadays a few of them are developing for Gameboy Advanced and Gameboy Color.

TV-Card Software: AmithlonTV Beta 245
Guido Mersmann has released beta-version 245 of the TV-Card driver software
AmithlonTV.
New in this version:
- WARNING!
Due the latest changes I cleared the libs/tvcard_carddata/ drawer.
If you perform a fresh installation just drag and drop the required tv
card file(s) from the storage_carddata into the tvcard_carddata drawer.
This change was required, because several cards are using the same hardware
ids, but they also need a different setup.
- FEATURE:
Added the missing global setup which is required
for non card specific drivers like audio mixers.
- FEATURE:
Optional Volume_AmiMixer.lib allows to
modify the volume within applications (requires amimixer.library).
- BUGFIX:
TVFakeInterrupt() wasn't working correct in special cases.
- FEATURE:
The missing "Notify" interrupt feature implemented.
"Volume_AmiMixer.lib" enhanced to support this feature.
- BUGFIX:
Removed the ghost card which appeared with the bt8x8 audio
section and the Philips enhancement. Currently the section
will be suppressed by the library. Later this will be handled
by the configuration, but currently this is the best solution.

Elite - Darkness Falls - Open Source
The Elite Fan Project "Elite - Darkness Falls" is open source. It looks very interesting, perhaps there is an Amiga programmer who would like to port it.
