10.Oct.2000 AMI Sector One |
AMI Sector One Extended Welcome to another update of AMI Sector One. Today there is something of interest for both emulator fans and Amiga users. But first of all let us begin with the new features written by Bernd: Microdeal - A resume: This article is about the hardware and software company Microdeal which disappeared in 199?. Amiga Games vs. Amiga Joker: Here I compare two issues of these popular Amiga games related magazines. The update continues with the new games Tanglewood (thanks to the author Ian Murray-Watson who allowed us to upload it), Tie-Break (thanks to the author Andreas Seebeck), Wrath of Gwendor and the request Wizzy's Quest (English version). Besides the ADF of Wikinger 2 has been fixed (thanks to Hubert Maier jr. for repairing it). Users of real Amiga computers will hopefully appreciate the following HD versions which have been added today: F/A 18 Interceptor HD, Lethal Xcess HD, Sword of Sodan HD. Most of these HD versions require an installed version of WHDLoad. There are also some new scans of Amiga games: Advanced Destroyer Simulation, Cosmo Ranger, Outrun, Peter Beardsley's Internat. Football, Pyramax, Quartz, Raider, Renaissance, Revelation, S.E.U.C.K., Space Gun, Speed Ball, Tie-Break, Titan, Treasure Trap, Triango, Turrican, UN Squadron, Way of the little Dragon, XCopy. Thanks to the contributors Peter and Raffaele. I have also added some new tunes of games: View the new additions by clicking here. Finally I have also added information to another 280 Amiga games. You can access the information by clicking here. I hope you enjoyed today's small update. AMI Sector One will soon be back with some great news. [News message: 10.

10.Oct.2000 VMC Harald Frank on ANF |
VMC-ISDN V3 Beta89 now including Mac-FreePPP Support Harald Frank wrote: After many days of hard work and several hundred dial-in tests, we are able to offer an improved version of VMC-ISDN, which from the current version works with all Mac FreePPP versions without problems. VMC-ISDN is now the only ISDN card software for AmigaOS allowing the Apple Macintosh emulators Shapeshifter of Fusion to build internet connections directly via ISDN and Sync-PPP. None of the currently available Amiga ISDN card drivers offers such an option, but often have such fatal errors in the protocols that make user-friendly operation impossible. First tests showed that internet banking, requiring Java, can now be utilized with your Amiga using an ISDN card and a Mac emulator like ShapeShifter or Fusion, installing NetscapeNavigator or the InternetExplorer on your virtual Mac. Yes, the Amiga can do Java... ;) Download Page [News message: 10. Oct. 2000, 07:29] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version] |

Amiga, Inc.: Executive Update September 28, 2000 Executive Update Greetings to one and all. I know it has been a long time since I last had the chance to write to all to all of you. It has been very, very busy, and we have seen some great successes, and some disappointments. I have not been asleep, and to the contrary I have not been getting much sleep of late. There is so much activity, and so little time that I have been spending a great deal of time in other areas and not keeping everyone up to date. To my Friends in Italy, I apologize that I was not able to attend the show. It was a real disappointment for me personally, as I wanted to greet each and every one of you. The reason was not because we are broke, or out of money as the rumors would state. Simply, there were two companies in California that I have been working with, and they requested a meeting that occurred over the same period of time. With working with these OEM's we will be able to add several million more Amigans, and the discussions went well and are progressing quickly, these meetings were in addition to what is mentioned in point 3 below. Now with all the above fun stuff…… Here we go:
I know that many of you will read that this letter says nothing, and that there is nothing happening, other than a new motorcycle for me. Well you are very wrong. We are meeting directly with the heads of some of the largest computer and consumer electronics companies in the world, and not only do they see the value in what we are offering but they see where the Amiga community, you, is the real value. Now we still have a ways to go, but we are moving very fast, and I know that you will all be very proud of Amiga as we continue to make things happen. The biggest challenge for Amiga right now is to stay focused on our core strengths, and not make the mistakes of those who have walked before us. The Amiga opportunity is huge, and sometimes overwhelming. There are so many conflicting reports, and I have not done a very good job of being able to communicate to all of you as well as I would like to. We are getting much closer every day, and everyone of you are a major part of the Amiga Family's success. Bill McEwen and the rest of the Amiga Team [News message: 09.

"Exodus - The Last War" and Appeal regarding a New Game At the moment there were four different versions of "Exodus - The Last War" released : a polish, a german, an english, and a french one. Soon the Czech version will be available for download. APPEAL There are plans for developing another game; code name "Husaria". In Polish this means a kind of heavy cavalry, soldiers specialized for fast attacks, which were noted for their victories particulary during the 17th century. For example King Jan III Sobieski who has supported Austria against Turkey in the battle near Vienna. For this new project the programmers are looking for the following things:
If possible, we need pictures of all 4 walls of the buildings, because we need this for making 3d-models out of them. It would be nice if you could tell us the name of the e.g. castle, and maybe send us a little map showing the location. If you would like to help us, you can send your material via email to darexodus@poczta.onet.pl. [News message: 09. Oct. 2000, 11:39] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version] |

VWP News AudioCutter Cinema V 0.91 for PPC-Linux After versions for x86-linux and Windows a preview version of the AudioCutter Cinema for PowerPC-Linux was released. This version contains bug fixes and some minor changes. The important new feature is a function for 2-dimensional and spectral sample analysis. The preview-version can be downloaded here. For further informations have a look at AudioCutter.de. AudioCutter needs Java. We recommend for PPC-Linux the Java Virtual Machine by blackdown.org. Unfortunately it is not very fast, but it runs very stable. AudioCutter Cinema for PPC-Linux on Amiga The PPC-Linux version were even tested on an Amiga and runs very well on it. The only thing is that you need is a kernel with audio support (Amiga-DMA sound). [News message: 09. Oct. 2000, 11:39] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version] |

The mailing list will continue at amiga-software.com for the time being. Unfortunately my CyberStormPPC presently is broken, so that I cannot continue to work on AmigaAMP. Incoming e-mails can also be answered in a limited way, because it's only half the fun without YAM :-) As soon as my Amiga works again I'll attend to v2.8 final of AmigaAMP. Please, be patient...
