This
is the first in this series of tutorials concerned with writing programs
for Tao's intent media environment. This series assumes that you have
read the
first series on VP coding
at this site
(even the tutorials I have not written yet!) or at least have a
basic knowledge of VP coding.

SharkPPC is not a development of ELBOX?!
On Sunday 18th of November in 2001 on the VGR-sites (title link) a very interesting news message has been published: The SharkPPC which was introduced by ELBOX at the fair is supposed to be nothing more than a relabeled Sonnet PPC-card.
If you will have a look at the Sonnet-product site it will confirm it.
Accordingly ELBOX has not developed "its" SharkPPC for itself. Therefore the introduction of the SharkPPC+ (which is supposed to have IDE-controller, AGP-slot and USB) can be doubted.

Hyperion: Warp3D support for Permedia 3 and ATI Radeon
Hyperion Entertainment has entered into an agreement with third parties
to ensure Permedia 3 and ATI Radeon support for Warp3D, effectively
doubling the number of supported chipsets.
"We are thrilled to be able to open up ever more possibilities to users
of Amiga PCI busboards", says Ben Hermans, managing partner of Hyperion
Entertainment. "The Permedia 3 is around 6 times faster than the
Permedia 2 and offers a lot more functionality including full OpenGL
compliance. The chipset is still frequently used in high-end 3D
workstations. The ATI Radeon family is undeniably state of the art with
well-rounded 2D performance and top-notch 3D performance that is on par
with anything out there in the Wintel world. Support for the Radeon
family will allow Amiga users to enjoy unrivalled performance and
functionality."
More details will be disclosed in the upcoming weeks.

Hyperion Entertainment brings 3D graphics to PDA's
Hyperion Entertainment is very pleased to announce that it has finalised
an initial version of its "Warp3D" technology, a mature, small foot-print,
feature-rich yet very fast 3D solution for ElateTM/ Amiga DETM based
devices.
Warp3D allows content-creators to effortlessly deploy 3D graphics on
low-end devices such as PDA's, web-tablets and 3G phones and is the
product of years of development in response to concrete performance
challenges and 3D technology.
Hyperion intends to showcase the Warp3D technology by producing several
PDA oriented games.
"A lot of the PDA content we are seeing now is a throw-back to the
earlier days of entertainment software and whilst this is not necessarily
a bad thing, we do believe that users would like to enjoy sophisticated
3D content on these devices as well. Our contract-work for LithTech Inc.
also means we were able to incorporate extensive research and expertise
in the field of software rendering which resulted in one of the fastest
software renderers in the industry - the only viable solution on a non
3D-accelerated PDA. Add to that a highly optimised subset of OpenGL which
is nonetheless capable of running industry-standard 3D engines like Quake
IITM and LithTechTM and you have a piece of very compelling technology
indeed."
Warp3D was already successfully field-tested on the SH3 powered version
of Sharp's Zaurus PDA and is due for imminent release.
The technology will remain in continuous development and will be
licensed to interested parties.
For the complete press release see title link.

Update for our show report
Since I did not talked to Titan Computer on the show, I called Michael Garlich, today, to
be able to add the news from Titan Computer. The details described below have been added to
the show report (title link):
Highlight at the booth of Titan Computer
was a video cut software "Motion Studio" for MorphOS capable of reading DV format.
The development of the software is expected to be released along with the Pegasos board by
bplan. It was presented with a beamer what the video cut software already can do.
Unfortunately it is not possible to port the software to AmigaOS, due to firwire being required.
More applications under development:
The office package "Papyrus" was finished at 90% for MorphOS and is to be ported to
the AmigaOS 4.0 later on.
Candy Factory II, software to create vidoe titles, logos, and web images for MophOS.
The created pictures can be imported by MotionStudio using an interface.
A MorphOS version of Burn-IT Pro (DVD burning software) was presented.
Said to be finished until April 2002.
Games under development:
Beside of the above mentioned applications Titan Computer is developing two new
games, too. "Rage Hard" is a 3D multiplayer shooter similar to Counterstrike. This game
is being developed for MorphOS and the new Amigas. "Alien Nations" is another game
for MorphOS and AmigaOS (PPC) under development, a build-up strategy game similar to Settlers.
Titan Comuter will port their current software product line to MorphOS, as much titles as possible.

AMIGA 2001: Gleanings by amiga-news.de (Update III)
The show AMIGA 2001,
which took place on 17th and 18th November 2001, was organized by
Falke Media
and was held at the Mediapark 6 in Cologne, Germany, on about 718 sq.yd.
exhibition space. By our count there were about 1,000 visitors on the show,
consuetudinary most of them came on Saturday.
bplan GmbH - Pegasos-System
Very much interesting was the first official presentation of the run capable Pegasos
machine by the bplan GmbH, utilizing
the operating system MorphOS.
Gerald Carda presented a test program to us which displayed plasma effects.
Unaccelerated (about the speed of 68050/50) this program generates 4 pictures per second (FPS).
The same program compiled for MorhpOS generates 192 FPS.
Thomas Knäbel and Gerald Carda told us about a number of between 100 and 200 developer
systems to be available from early January 2002. Interested developers might register using a
registration page at
bplan, before long. If there will be more registrations
than boards available, it will be selected by progam priority. The developers should send bug reports,
if there will occur problems.
Machines for end-users will follow about 8 - 12 weeks later. Those machines will cost about 1,000 Euro and
are planned to be delivered with the following equipment:
- 8 MB AGP graphic board
- 128 MB RAM
- DVD Drive
- 20 GB HD
- Mouse and Keyboard
The interesting point of MorhpOS for sure is, that existing PPC programs can be started
directly on this system. Companies like Titan-Computer and Epic interactive will extensively
adapt their programs to this system.
Haage&Partner - Amiga OS XL
Amiga OS XL,
the new super-fast Amiga emulators for x86 machines were presented on three
different computers at Haage&Partner.
The speed is impressing and faszinating at the same time.
Amiga OS XL consists of two emulator systems: AMIthlon and Amiga XL for QNX in a
bundle. The emulators are similar to each other in many parts, but there are basic
differences, too. With this prevalent Amiga 68k applications run 10 - 20 times faster on
current PC hardware than on a convetional 68060 systems. This tremendous speed is
achieved by a modified and accelerated emulator. With it one gets versions of PageStream,
ImageFX, ArtEffect, Cinema4D, Real3D, and any other program fast like turbo.
Haage&Partner's highlight is a x86 machine built into a luxury computer case of noble
design and with Amiga OS XL installed. The body of the computer was made of aluminium,
the front side is of azure plastic.
While talking to H&P they appeared to be surprised by the allmost all-time positive
visitors' response and amazed at the still great demand for information, though there have
been many press releases before. Sales could have been better, but satisfied.
Hyperion - AmigaOS 4.0 for PPC
Without doubt the most interesting thing on the second day of the show was our talk to
Ben Hermans, Thomas and Hans-Jörg Frieden of
Hyperion Entertainment about
AmigaOS 4.0 for PPC. It was determined and safe by contract that Hyperion will develop
AmigaOS 4.0 for PPC. Aspired term of completion of an initial distributing version is
February 2002. This distributing version still will have parts of 68k code, which will be
handed in later by BoingBag updates when finished.
Hyperion will work together with bplan to make the AmigaOS 4.0 PPC running
on the Pegasos machine. Hyperion additionally talked to many other hardware
and software developers to make their products compatible, too. This gave a very positive sign,
because after a long period of time a joint line and goal is being followed, again.
Titan Computer - Update 20. November.2001
Highlight at the booth of Titan Computer
was a video cut software "Motion Studio" for MorphOS capable of reading DV format.
The development of the software is expected to be released along with the Pegasos board by
bplan. It was presented with a beamer what the video cut software already can do.
Unfortunately it is not possible to port the software to AmigaOS, due to firwire being required.
More applications under development:
The office package "Papyrus" was finished at 90% for MorphOS and is to be ported to
the AmigaOS 4.0 later on.
Candy Factory II, software to create vidoe titles, logos, and web images for MophOS.
The created pictures can be imported by MotionStudio using an interface.
A MorphOS version of Burn-IT Pro (DVD burning software) was presented.
Said to be finished until April 2002.
Games under development:
Beside of the above mentioned applications Titan Computer is developing two new
games, too. "Rage Hard" is a 3D multiplayer shooter similar to Counterstrike. This game
is being developed for MorphOS and the new Amigas. "Alien Nations" is another game
for MorphOS and AmigaOS (PPC) under development, a build-up strategy game similar to Settlers.
Titan Comuter will port their current software product line to MorphOS, as much titles as possible.
DCE - G-REX
Thomas Dellert and Michael Göken of DCE
presented the PCI busboard G-Rex working in an A4000 with Cyberstrom 604/68060 and AmigaOS 3.9
as well as WarpUP.
An USB card for mouse and keyboard, a Voodoo graphic board (3/3000), a WIN-TV card with
radio tuner, and a sound card (Terratec 512i) were working on the PCI board. There are many good
reasons for this solution: Graphic speed, wheel mouse and multimedia keyboard, support of the USB
card, 100 MBit network card can be connected; all in all it became possible to use cheap generic PC hardware
by the PCI busboard G-Rex. The board is being offerd for A4000D/T and A1200.
Elbox - Mediator
Elbox presented their Mediator system.
The following models were shown:
- Mediator PCI ZIV
- Mediator PCI 1200
- Mediator PCI 4000
- Shark PPC G3/G4
Again the reasons mentioned regarding DCE match here. With help of a PCI busboard it is possible
to use cheap PCI hardware for various purposes.
Other Hardware-Products
Jens Schönfeld of Individual Computers
showed us a pre-run model of the interface card VarioIO, which will be available before
Christmas, already.
Basing on a Logitech 2 button mouse Schönfeld developed a real Amiga / Atari mouse.
Also this production will start next days.
Thorsten Hansen of Kato Development
showed us the prototype of the Melody successor. This card will have the functions of
the Melody card plus the following specialities:
- MP3 audio not only can be decoded in real-time, but also encoded.
- Analog mixer function.
- Digital in/out (optical / coaxial)
Michael Böhmer showed his
USB controller Subway with which you can connect prevalent USB devices to the clock port of the
A1200. Up to four devices can be use without an additional USB hub. VMC started to develop drivers, already.
Currently drivers for mouse and keyboard are available. Drivers for printers, digital cameras, and scanners
are scheduled.
Other Software-Products
Amiga Forever 5.0
Michael Battilana of Cloanto
presented the new
Amiga Forever 5.0.
Amiga Forever is about an official licensed Amiga emulator package for Windows and
other platforms. Just put the CD into the drive, click on the icon and it runs. Eight different
emulation programs, all of the required Kickstart ROMs, Workbenchs, licenses, as well
as an all-around package with useful Amiga sofware are included.
Due to the implemented JIT compiler (just-in-time) version 5.0 is about
30 time faster than
Amiga Forever 4. The emulator comes on a CD containing the famous video
"The Deathbed Vigil" (1 h, 59 min.) and the video
"Jay Miner Speech" (49 min.).
But Amiga Forever 5.0 is available for download as online version, too.
epic interactive - THE FEEBLE FILES
epic announce THE FEEBLE FILES
for the Amiga. This game is about a cartoon adventure. Beside of the MorphOS port
there also will be an AmigaOS verison. The Amiga version will be available as
entirely localized versions in Engish and German (voice output). An Amiga with 4 MB graphic
board, 68060 or PPC, and at least 32 MB RAM is required.
Development of the Amiga version already started and epic hopes to be able
to deliver the finished product already before Christmas 2001.
Descent:Freespace
Hyperion
showed the new game Descent-Freespace. This game is about a
space shooter. The Amiga port of Freespace was finished at 99% and
will be available as 68k (with 3D hardware only) and PPC version from
H&P, soon. Those who ordered the game on the show got a free
demo CD for testing at home, already.
Project Crashsite
Markus Pohlmann (program) and Denis Comtesse (music)
are busy developing the science fiction role game
Project Crashsite.
The place of action in this game is a colonialized second system consiting
of two moons. The player takes the part of the "Future Security Corps" which
is the system's police.
The game's goal is to stabilize the unstable situation of this system. This is not easy to achieve,
due to a big conspiracy defering the relation of potency. The player is sent into the game almost
without any background information about the conspiracy to make him choose "pal and enemy"
himself, because depending on his choice the game becomes easier or more difficult.
Currently four people are working on this game, thus it is not possible to
announce some date of comlpetion at the time being.
PuzzleBOBS
In cooperation with Emanuele Cesaroni of Nexus Development
the Amiga Arena
and Fun Time World present the game in
partnership. PuzzleBOBS is about a "Bust´n Move"
clone. From now on a demo version is available on
http://www.funtime-world.de/puzzle.html
or from the support page at the Amiga Arena.
Technical backgrounds:
- PuzzleBOBS is completely configurable.
- Screenmode (AGA / OCS / ECS / Picasso96 or CyberGraphX compatible graphic boards).
- Bitplanes: up to 16- and 24Bit screens.
- Playable in three languages (German, Italian, English)
- Playable from HD, full or partly installation (min. 14 MB)
- Written in 100% assembler
- Import of own levels and sounds.
Backgrounds, bubbles, object speed, music and sound effects, explosion style,
and masses of other little things, as well, can be configured to match your own personal desire.
The game was programmed to allow different bubbles to have different characteristics.
There are bubbles that bounce back form walls, which of course simplifies severity. The
game runs in full multitasking on it's own screen or in a window on the Workbench.
When the game's window becomes inactive the game automatically turns to sleep mode,
which is a special feature to let you continue your work on the Workbench. In sleep mode
even every audio channel and colour palette get's released.
Miscellaneous
GGS Data - Amiga Show
Gunne Steen of the Swedish vendor GGS Data
informed us about an Amiga show in Göteborg, Sweden, planned to take place on
2. March 2002 (maybe also on 3. March 2002). The respective
website will be online in about seven days. Comanies and
user groups are heartily invited to attend the show as exhibitors.
Psyria - Music
Dennis Lohr gave us a CD on the show on which he eternalized his trance song for amiga-news.de. This song
also is available for download:
Amiga News Theme
(ca. 7 MB). Again thank you very much to Dennis for taking the trouble to create this song. This realy is a privilege to us!
Annex - Music
Daniel Schulz of Annex
assured us that the music group, known by several Amiga songs, still is alive.
Meantime many new pices of music were recored, extracts can be downloaded
as MP3.
Still the vocals are missing, because the band still is searching for a female singer.
She should have been singing in a band before, come from the dance/trance field, and
live in the Rhein-Main area (Germany). Interessted singers might contact
Daniel Schulz (include a demo if possible).
Two maxi-singles with three songs on each and maybe a long-player with all songs are
planned.
Virtual Dimension
The crew of Virtual Dimension
did many interviews and took many pictures for their show video. The video
is estimated to be published before Christmas.
Furthermore Virtual Dimension introduced the round and text basing space game
StarEmpire II
by Christian Becker . Up to 32 players are possible.
Airbrush Paradise Tingler
Rolf Tingler prettified diverse things with
different motives. Of course mainly motives with BoingBalls were desired. Starting from cell phones
thru Swiss pocket knives everything got "boinged" with airbrush technic.
Upshot:
Interesting hard- and software solutions were presented. There was good mood on the show
and intensive discussing everywhere. However, it is to be said that in spite of all those
innovations and in spite of the positive signs some certain questions were left without an
answer, cause neither Amiga Inc. nor Eytech or Escena attended the show. Thats where descriptions
regarding the plans of Amiga Inc. for the AmigaOne are required.
Finally one discerning word regarding the organization. The corridors along the
"focal points" on the upper floor were way to narrow. Occasionally there were such
big crowd that it was hard to get to the booths.
Christoph Dietz, Petra Struck as well as Meike Hilke (photos) were on the show for
amiga-news.de.
