BattleIsle DataDisk 3
Marco Frischkorn writes:
I am missing some maps for a new DataDisk. Mainly one-player maps. If somebody has some of those
on his hard drive, just send them. As basic map set I am using the graphics from BattleIsle 1.
If someone has maps for the DataDisk 1 (desert / winter), I would be happy about them, too,
even while there are only one third of the needed maps are present right now.
Please send maps to marco_frischkorn@amigadev.de.
When possible write some lines in addition to the map, like sollutions, backgrounds, about the
person, and that you aggree in distribution on an extra DataDisk. The maps are throughoutly tested
by myself and two friends. As soon as the DataDisk 3 is ready, everyone will recieve it automatically.

Loss of E-Mail Addresses
A small request to all who wrote me concerning BATTLE or A4EP in the last eight weeks:
Due to "human failure", the e-mail catalog has been lost completely. Please send another
short e-mail to marco_frischkorn@amigadev.de.
If possible, please describe in brief what it was about.

DiskCopy v44.5 - fix
Andi from Future Visions writes:
On January 30th, 2000, the Amiga community was informed about the problems with the diskcopy v44.5
by amiga-news.de. At the title link, a link to our "Amiga Support Area" can be found, offering the
utility "TrackCopy64" for download. This program enables access to tracks beyond the 4GB barrier.
The support site alos lists an explanation of the diskcopy v44.5 problems. I ask for feedback by
voluntary beta testers about problems occuring with TrackCopy64. Suggestions, questions and beta
test reports please to support-computer@future-visions.de.

LightForce
Bad news on LightForce by StrangeWorlds:
On this weekend, the A4000 of
Andreas Hippauf suffered a complete failure of the development partition.
The development environments for LightForce, and the e-mail client YAM had
to be reinstalled completely. Thanks to frequent backups, the sources were
undamaged.
But the emails of (the) last month(s?) have been lost. If
somebody has ordered the latest demo version and did not yet recieve it,
please contact Andreas Hippauf
again. Reminder: Due to the very low response to the e-mail feedback it has
been decided to send out new demo versions only to interested users on
request. The latest demo, by the way, already shows the usage of textures
and extras, so it is well worth a look.

AminetGUI Update
After some time, I did some work on the Aminet-GUI again. This is mostly small bugfixes. Frames
should now be displayed without disturbing borders on non-Amiga browsers, too. You can now switch
directly from the tree structure to forum and guestbook. The link area has also been updated, adding
some new links. In the future it will be possible to add your own links. The implementation of this
functionality is still being worked upon, however. I added some auction and exchange websites to the
interactive area. I am planning to add my own exchange area, but I am right now still looking for
a suitable provider for such services. If someone knows a good provider, or has experience in CGI
prgramming, please contact me.
Due to a hard drive crash with PFS-2, it will take some time until the next large update, since I
have to completely rebuild my system. This can take some time since I have the majority of my programs
from the Internet. On this occassion I can only advice you not to use PFS-2. It was the second crash
I experienced. On the first crash I almost lost my complete web partition. The second crash took my
dh0: drive down. So I will switch my system to SFS. The introduction of the new directory design will
be delayed for said reasons, I am sorry. But I hope it won't be too long.

Screenshots of The Heretic Fortress
The Hyperion Software has now become yet
more Amiga-friendly by removing all JavaScript.
Hyperion Software has released first screenshots (title link) of "The Heretic Fortress".
This is a multiplayer mode for Heretic II by Wankaroo, with the Amiga version nearing
completion fast, and which will be available on release of the Heretic 2-CD.
The Heretic II FAQ and the
Features page have
been updated. There won't be a 68k version, since the reached performance is insufficient.

Problem with diskcopy v44.5
Andi of Future Visions writes:
The diskcopy included in OS3.5 (System drawer) is unable to correctly read and copy partitions
over the 4GB barrier. If this is true for writing I have not yet tested, but I don't think it
will work.
If now there is an error on a partition over the 4GB barrier, like the root directory defective
due to a crash during writing, and the partition cannot be accessed by the normal file system,
a normal user is unable to rescue his data. Tools like Disksalv are unable to access these
partitions, and there is no FFS64-compatible "diskcopy" program on Aminet to copy the defective
partition to the lower 4GB and use Disksalv on it there. So I urgently recommend
not to hold important data on such partitions, since a recovery will be impossible. OS3.5 support
has been notified.
