CS&E: Software and Banner
CS&E will soon releae "Cosmo's Fun Class".
This is a education software package for children at the age of 4-9 years. It fosters
reading, calculating and the hand/eyes coordination and much more.. The software
runs on an A1200. It was developed by the team of
Electronics Dream Interactive.
In conjunction with an Amiga Survivor subscription the package is available at a special
price. To do a translation into German language CS&E needs 300 pre-orders. They expect 1000
pre-orders for the game "Carmageddon". All in all the people at CS&E hope to sell
5000 copies of "Carmageddon".
"Back in Time 2" however has been finished as is the English version of "Cosmo's Fun
Class", so they don't need any pre-orders for that. Details about pre-ordering are
available via email: csande@csande.com
and will be released soon in both, the print and online magazines of CS&E.

changed or options have been removed, and may not be used in the old way anymore. More

EU-Commission starts Poll about Software Patents
"The European Commission has started a poll about patents on computer programs,
so-called "computer-implemented inventions". Prior to this is the EU's fear
that the lack of EU-standard provisions of law in this sector could slow down
economic growth, competitive capacity and development of the internal market.
The commission has asked concerned institutions, companies, the public, and
the member-states to express themselves about a
probe document
from the commission's departements. The commission will state its final
position concerning this subject around beginning of 2001."

I'm very grateful to Todor Fay (and surely every other musically interested AMIGA-user does so)

MorphOS: CygnusEd Professional 4.21
An official PPC port of the text editor "CygnusEd Professional V4.21" has been
released for MorphOS. This port needs the original CygnusEd4-CD-ROM as a
basis. During the installation of the patch, the 68k version stays untouched
so that it can still be used in case one would like to install both versions
on the same partition. The updated frontend recognizes whether the editor has
been started under MorphOS or AmigaOS an then loads the corresponding binary.
This update can also be downloaded at Schatztruhe.

Dreamworlds Development is Looking for One More Musician
Because Audun Evensen (our musician up to now) does not have enough time anymore we have decided to
engage another musician. She/He should get along with each possible kind of music, work on time,
be well up in editing samples and of course should be interested in games.
Having a sampler, good hardware (PPC) and knowledge in English are advantageous but not necessary.
Of course you are participated in proceeds from the sales.
First (and urgent) music for Crossfire II is needed. Here is Techno or something like that sufficient.
It`s all right if different kinds of music are used provided that it fits to hard action. :) I prefer
stirring classical music but it is hard to handle with the computer. Furthermore some intermediate
progression have to set to music (own format).
After finishing CF2 (if a further co-operation is desired) we need right music (medieval, atmospheric,
classical, sometimes rock music) instead of Techno for our next game called "Between The Lines", a
role-playing in real time.
Those ones who are interested in (or have any questions) please mail to
stefan@dreamworlds.de
with a demo work or state an internetaddress where I can find such a sample. A few information about
yourself and your hardware configuration would be useful.

New UAE-JIT Version for Linux
On October 14th, Bernie Meyer has released a new version of his JIT
compiler for UAE running on Linux. While the stock UAE only interprets
the 68k Amiga software, the JIT compiler converts the programs to x86
code at runtime, making them run significantly faster. This version,
code-named "Everton", contains the following changes:
- FPU support.
- SIGSEGV handler for direct memory access. This option offers the
best performance and is highly recommended.
- Optimisations and according speed increase
- better timing
- many improvements in the source code
The title link leads to several archives for Linux to download,
including source code.
