mOOdS - music for your instincts
The module platform Moods has started their online module Compo on
the 1st of March. This competition is some kind of experiment,
all of the participants have to download samples from the homepage
and make the best of those few samples. The point of interest in
this is - everybody will make different music from these. Until
April 1st modules can be sent to the Moods' organizer via e-mail or
mail to participate in the Compo.
A few days after closing date the modules will be available for download
and voting. Besides of glory, fun, and new friends unfortunately there is
nothing else you can win....
More information are to find on the homepage.

Amiga Arena News
Amiga Arena - AmigaKonto full version
By authority of Adreas Regul the program AmigaKonto is ready for
free download. AmigaKonto was developed for management of
accounts. Especially for bank giro accounts with many movements
one quickly forfeits summary in verifying recurrent money transfers.
Therefore AmigaKonto first of all serves as a special kind of
database for managing the different transfer orders. By
various selection and statistic functions then it is possible to
address single positions well directed.
Full benefit is to achieve in collecting account data over several years
to have comparison values at hand enabling you to get a quick summary
by use of the selection functions.
Amiga Arena - Toadies Survey supplement
Participation in the survey to develop a computer rival for Toadies is
without engagement. With Toadies belonging to the "most downloads" of
Aminet in mind, I'm very disappointed about the results of participation,
so far.

Earthquake in Seattle
Last night an earthquake with the strength of 6.8 happened to
Northwest USA. Seattle was affected particular; the news are
talking about one event of death and several people got hurt.
Best wishes to Snoqualmie (30 miles away from Seattle); I hope everybody
at Amiga Inc. rode out this night and that there is no large loss.
Supplement 02 March 2001
On an e-mail from us Gary Peake from Amiga, Inc.replied:
Everything is lovely here. The building shook pretty good for about 30 seconds but no
loss of life anywhere in Washington State and not a lot of physical damage except to older
buildings in bad need of repair. The news media made it sound much worse than it really was or
could have been.
Thanks for asking about us!

New Strategy Game Planned
Alien Imperium is supposed to become a network and Internet game which is supposed to support several
operating systems, because it will be programmed in Java. It will be made in co-operation of
Amig@lien with AccM Software Allianz.
In this space strategy game you have to be superior in technology and tactics to other races.
For instance you can invent a lot, but you can also enter alliances as well as other contracts.
Everybody who liked Imperium Terranum will be fine with this game. This game will be delivered on CD-ROM
and will certainly be released for the AmigaOne, but also a classic-Amiga version is planned. We hope
you are already excited.
Here is a hint for all who cannot wait for it: We hope to be able to show a graphic and sound presentation
to the computer revolution 2001. (Ricco Clemens)
Those ones who want to support the project "Alien Imperium" should mail to AccM or Amig@lien. We are
grateful for each help! Manfred Rauer (POI)

opendivx.library Finished
opendivx.library, which is a shared library for 68k and WarpUP systems for replaying OpenDivX animations,
has been finished and can be downloaded on www.projectmayo.com.
It has been already released a special version of Moovid which uses opendivx.library (because Moovid is
commercial, this special version only plays OpenDivX; you must have the full version for playing
different formats).
The opendivx.library archive contains also information for programmers how to use opendivx.library in
own projects.

New Developer in NetBSD Team
Jukka A Andberg has been included in the NetBSD-team. He has written a first (still incomplete) version
of a wscons[1]-driver for NetBSD/Amiga and will now complete it.
Wscons is the console driver interface which does not depend on the machine and which is already in use
on many NetBSD-architectures. It enables virtual switching consoles and makes the simultaneous use of
text consoles and X11-screen(s) possible which is a characteristic not included in the ite- (Internal Tty-Emulator)
system which is used in NetBSD/Amiga, so far.

Appeal to Rainboot Users
There will be some decisive changes in the next version of Rainboot for users of graphic boards. Because
I have not a CGfx or a Picasso96 system and I have got some messages that there are still some problems
with Rainboot. Though it works generally, I ask all who are still having problems with Rainboot on Cgfx/P96
to contact me in order to be able to fix those. Thanks a lot!

Confusion about Proceedings Against Met@box
»Currently a report of the stock exchange information service Prior produces some confusion.
Referring to this the public prosecution Frankfurt investigates the set-top-box producer Met@box
from Hildesheim because of the suspicion of manipulation of the stock exchange.
Already at the beginning of the year the business offices of the company has been investigated.
At inquiry the public prosecution Frankfurt referred to their colleague in Hildesheim; the supreme
public prosecutor Seemann confirmed that a proceedings was carrying out but refused to give
further information.
Instead of that he referred to the public prosecution Hannover which did not make a comment as well as
Prior himself: "The chief is in vacancy", was the answer at inquiry from Heise online.«

New PlayGUI Version and Special Version
From my homepage (Amiga/Projects/PlayGUI) a new version of PlayGUI can
be downloaded from today. (Unfortunately still not from the PlayGUI page due
to a server problem.)
PlayGUI is a all-around play GUI for mods, midis, Mp3s, and samples with many
features which can be embellished with skins and themes.
Changes:
- Bugfix: slider gadgets are displayed at the right position, now.
- Bugfix: sample-buffer showed 0 if it were set to maximum.
- Bugfix: GMPlay filter didn't work - this function has been removed
- The menus have been switched to upper- /lower case for easier reading
- Font problem fixed
- No more 3D frames for the skin
Moreover there is a 7MB special version of PlayGUI on my homepage containing
the latest version and additionally all of the skins and themes available
at this time. 90% of these are not to find at Aminet.

»Obviously there is a bug in all 2.8012 clients (build466) that put out wrong results.
D.Net recommends to use version 2.8010(build 463). It is unknown if this bug is

Album '2000 B.C' by Bobby Clark
For those of you who were into the module scene a few years ago, you might
remember B.C. (aka Bobby Clark, the guy who filled up Aminet mods/med with
heaps of music) ... B.C. now has recorded a debut album, which is purchasable
at http://www.mp3.com/2000bc
The debut album is titled 2000 B.C. It features mainly electronic and new age
based tracks, as well as a couple of re-makes of aminet Octamed classics.
The album may be purchased online from http://www.mp3.com/2000bc, and there
are sample mp3 tracks on the site which may be streamed or downloaded.
The album was made with the help of an Atari 1040ST running Steinberg 12, and an
Amiga 1000 (YES! A 1000!!!) running good old Octamed 4.0!
