New Screenshots of the Real-time RPG "Between the Lines"
Because of a harddisk crash, we have lost all source codes of our games
"Crossfire II" and "Between the Lines". At least Crossfire II could partly
be recovered, but it'll take several months to fully restore it.
As a compensation and the long time during which nothing happened on our
homepage, there are a few new screenshots of the real time RPG BtL.

Amster
|
Amster News
Amster is a program for downloading of authorized MP3 music files from
Napster. One also can let the program
(client) search for music files made available by other participants or can
chat with other participants.
Yesterday the Amster source code was put on
SourceForge.
Interested developers can participate in further development under
'CVS access' (explanation in addition).
Since it wasn't clear to me what CVS access means I asked about this on
our internal mailing list. Ruediger Hanke
took the task to give an extended
explanation. Because I can imagine our readers to be interested in this, too,
I post his answer here:
What is CVS access?
CVS = Concurrent Versions System, a program for source code management.
Among other things the program saves old versions of the source code, so
one can trace changes from one version to another. Furthermore it coordinates
changes in source codes if several developers are working on one single
program. Else there would happen situations like follows:
- developer A loads source ab.c
- developer B loads source ab.c
- developer A saves source code ab.c including changes done by him
- developer B saves source code ab.c including changes done by him
and by doing so overwrites the changes of developer A.
CVS cares for changes not to be accidently overwritten by somebody and
in the case of need announces conflicts caused by changes. Thus it is
essential if several developers are working on one single program.
Amster seems to be under CVS control. "CVS access" in this case means
that people wanting to participate in programming Amster can get
access to the CVS server managing the program's source codes.

Plextor Stops SCSI
Plextor Europe will stop production and distribution
of SCSI CDRom drives this very year. As reason for this
the company named regressive sales figures as well as
problems in providing components. In the long term this
would also affect the American and Japanese market. One
would want to address the DVD market segement with
devices with USB and Firewire interfaces in the future.

Amiga Arena News
Preface
Since I cannot affect as much as I would like to on my own I decided to
take a chance for a partnership with the Fun Time World!
The Amiga Arena homepage will remain what it is, now, and I hope to be able
to act even more effective in this partnership than before !
Olaf Koebnik - Amiga Arena
Amiga Arena - Fun Time World Partnership
The shareware market suffered from evaluations of the past years. The amount of
new releases decreased very much every year. To stop this evaluation the pages
Fun Time World and Amiga Arena agree to a partnership to patronize the
shareware market. This partnership's objective is to call user's attention
to developments at the shareware market.
This is to serve the purpose of higher sales and to motivate developers to continue to develop
new and better programs, at the same time. In the future by a closer cooperation
with the developers user's wishes shall be taken into account more than this has been
done before. In further steps registration of programs from foreign countries shall
be facilitated.
It will be determined from surveys which kind of software is in demand most.
Special wishes from now on can be sent to the Fun Time World and to the Amiga Arena.
Programmers who would agree to offer their programs at a more cost-effective price for a certain
period of time, can contact the Amiga Arena at any time.
Amiga Arena
The Amiga Arena is a shareware / freeware support site with special prices for
shareware software, links, interviews, and full versions of shareware software
which will not be further developed.
Fun Time World
The Fun Time World page provides the Amiga users with topical news, test of
software and hardware, as well as important information since several years.
Meantime the service has been extended by adding an online shop as well as
auction and forum sections.
