joystick.
System requirements given by the programmer are an Amiga
with 68040 CPU (PPC to become supported by WarpOS),
executable Warp3D-Installation, executable AHI installation and
installed Lucyplay.library on. The game was published as Freeware.

Divinorum & Aural Planet CDs close to publication

new material on his Divinorum label. This is progressive trance, or, broadly
speaking, electronic sounding music pieces. All audio CDs are handled through

Demo scene: Scene.org Awards 2002
This name is none other than an international jury who nominate the best demo
scene productions of the year 2002 and later determine the winner. The
nominations are not restricted to a computer platform, country of origin or a
certain party. Thus also demos created on the Amiga, C64, Gameboy Advanced, PS2
etc. can be nominated and awarded.
The sole requirement is that the demo was published in the course of last year.
The announcement of the winners and the award ceremony itself will be held on
the Breakpoint Party 2003. A
list of all nominations will be announced in the course of February on the
Awards Web site.

Scene: Shakwave Web site completely reworked
The personal home page of musician and trader Shakwave, formerly better known as
Chavez, has been completely renewed. A large number of older music modules and
MP3s which he has composed over the years on the Amiga and later the PC are
awaiting the visitor. This is mainly stuff that might become interesting for
techno fans.

Scene: New music by Moods published
Various new songs by the music group Moods have been published. In one of the
news entries of Diskmag.de one of the mainly responsible people, D!rtie, in a
way apologises for their productivity, resp. for the fact that he has been able to
announce new modules in the news nearly on a daily basis. As always all music
pieces of the Moods Web site are freely available at no cost.

Amithlon and Adaptec 19160
The Amithlon emulator can also be operated with a U2W 160 SCSI card by Adaptec.
The name of the card is "19160 Adaptec".
This is interesting for all those who have a hardware test on their internet
site for Amithlon.

AmiChess: New version with increased playing strength
Under the title link there is a new version of AmiChess which has been
recompiled with StormC 4. Apart from some minor bug fixes, the WarpOS
version in particular has benefitted from the recompilation.
Calculation speed of the WOS version could nearly be doubled! Thus AmiChess
with the GNUChess engine is a match for "Crafty" (see Aminet), the chess
engine with currently the highest plaing strength!
I wish all chess friends a good time with the new version!

Michael Lanser is developing already for some months a Civilization clone for our Amiga with the name "Realms of Power".
We wanted to know the current developing state of "Realms of Power" and talked to the developer Michael Lanser about his project.
The interview is available in German
and English.
Amiga Arena - Back in business!
The basic design has been finished and further rubrics are now following.
For the time being some software titles are not accessible.
But I may already tell you that with the opening of the download area further new programs will be released. I want to thank you for your patience and hope that you will remain loyal to the Amiga Arena!

Since today is the interview with Petra Struck
(recorded on January, 25th 2003) thanks to the help of the 'User der Nordseeküste' (udnimweb.de) finally online.
Download: interview_amiganews.mp3 - 6,15 MB
Sorry for the not so good sound quality but as the interview has a lenght of around 20 minutes
and I wanted to make it available to as many users as possible I had shrunk the file to the end lenght of appr. 6.15 MB (40 kb/s).
Soon there'll be a CD released containing an exhibition video and the interview in word and picture (I'm just doing the video cut). On the CD may be a little surprise (if the timing's good) - no more words about it right now. As soon as the CD's finished I'll tell you right here. Enjoy!

Golem: Opera-browser gets wrong data of msn.com
»msn.com prevents a correct view when visiting it with Opera browser
In a current message Opera blames msn.com delivering wrong style sheets to the Opera 7.0
to give the user the impression the Norwegian browser would not show the sites in a correct
way. Already in October 2001 there was an eclat because Microsoft had locked out users
with the browsers Opera, Mozilla and Knoqueror of the website msn.com.«
