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.

AmigAIM 0.9396 beta
On October 15th, 2000 Richard H. Poser has released the beta version 0.9396
of AmigAIM. This program makes it possible to use the AOL-Instant-Messenger-system
"AIM". Compared to the previous version the following has changed:
- I think I isolated the problems with the Password being saved improperly,
Capitalization and Spacing in ScreenName used for signon should no longer
matter - I found that an Earlier built in data conversion was attempting
a conversion anyway if spaces were used in the ScreenName in the Signon. I
call the problem, the "amazingly growing password"
- I also now restrict the length of the ScreenName and PassWord entry blocks
to a maximum of 16 characters (Longest AIM will allow anyway. Not sure why
I hadn't done this already)

Cleaning-up of the AROS source tree by Bernardo Innocenti, simple hardfile
support of FFS formatted floppy disks (ADF) by Georg Steger, and better mouse
support for AROS native/x86 by Tobias Seiler (mouse buttons work now). Georg
threw in some additional code to change the position of the mouse pointer on
the screen, and now you can move the window around. Since VGA.HIDD doesn't
support the XOR drawing mode, yet there is still some graphics garbage when you move
the window, but that should be fixed, soon.

StarOffice-Sourcecode Released
Sun has released the source code of StarOffice as Open Source on October 13th,
2000. This is the pre-release of StarOffice 6.0. The further development of
the package has been handed over to the OpenOffice-Project.
The source code is 400 MByte in size, and is available for download at the OpenOffice
website for download. It contains 35,000 files which count all together some
9 million lines of C++ code. A Pentium III computer with 256 MB RAM and Linux
would need some 20 hours to compile the package. The space required on the
harddrive will grow up to 2 GByte while doing this. Currently supported are
Windows, Linux, and Solaris. A version for Mac OsX, which is said to be still in an
earlier stade, should follow.
