S-File 3 for Nightlong
The first alpha version of Nightlong is finished. The full game is working, but there are
optimizations to be done. For example, Nightlong is so big that it is hard to put everything
on the three CDs planned! As soon as all problems are solved, beta tests will start.
Oh, yes, and beta testers to-be have to pre-order Nightlong!

Phase 5 filed for protection from its creditors
On January 26th, 2000, Phase 5 filed for protection from its creditors. Talks are held
with third parties interested in taking over (and continue) the AMIGA technology part.
This way, running developments and products, especially the new G4 CPU cards, could be
continued.
In case of liquidation, all customers that placed preorders and
prepayments with phase 5 digital products will be contacted and informed of their
rights.

Pagan Games is happy to introduce two new employees. Axiom will work on the graphics of
Dafel: Bloodline, and Psycho (szene coder of Loonies)

AROS: Menues are now working
The code for the menues has been inserted. Different than on the original
Amiga, tasks are handled as a task that contains all input-events as long
as the right mouse button is pressed. For this reason the menues will not
block other tasks, and are easily improved upon. If blocking menues are
still a problem then they ccan be controlled by by each program
individually by checking for RMB down/up.
In other words the AROS-Menues work better than the original Amiga OS
menues.

Hotlist
You will surely have noticed that the link to our old hotlist (in the link bar on top)
and the Quick Links from the right-hand menu have vanished. It would have been redundant,
additional work to maintain them in addition to the comprehensive
Amiga Link Directory.
If your website is not yet listed in the ALD, we would be happy if you'd take the two minutes
it takes to register. Changes to the submitted data can be commited with the password given
on first submission. So you can add a banner (100x100) later, if you haven't one handy right
now.
