Joern Plewka on ANF S/P-DIF (Digital-Out) for Melody: That's the Way it Works
Only eight low priced components you can purchase e.g. at Reichelt are keeping the Melody1200 from having digital output (Melody-Z2, CDTV and CD32 would be possible, too).. This is a slightly changed article from C't 18/2000 (German computer magazine).

At first exclusive for amiga-news: Manual on how to get the Melody digital output (German).

Earth 2140
epic interactive announces portation to the Amiga of the successful realtime strategy game "Earth 2140". epic has got the license from Topware Interactive AG to port one of the most popular realtime strategy game for Windows to Mac and Amiga. The Amiga version is currently at an early beta state and release is estimated for early November.

Since Earth runs in 16Bit it requires high level hardware: at least an Amiga with 68040 processor, graphics board and 16MB of RAM. But recommended is an Amiga PPC with graphics board and 32MB of RAM.

Earth plays in the year 2140. The earth is controlled by two competing forces, the Eurasian Dynasty (ED) and the United Civilised States (UCS). Both are at war with each other fighting for the last remaining raw materials on earth.... The Amiga version comes with different localisations, including German.

Screenshots:

earth01.jpg (45627 bytes)

Features:

50 Thrilling Missions
640x480 or 800x600 with 65.000 Colours
70 Different Units and Buildings
Multiplayer Mode
Stereo Soundtrack with CD Quality
7 Minutes Intro, Breathtaking Inter-Sequences

Up to Oktober, 15th Earth 2140 can be preordered from us. At Amiga Fire from next week you will find regular status reports on the beta state of Earth 2140.

Achim Stegemann on ANF Digital Almanac III News
Due to some putative bug reports on the DA III pages one page with "Tips and Tricks" has been added, which makes using DA III more easy.

Because of several problems no demo version for DA III could be placed at Aminet up to now, but this will be done once more during next days.

With the next issue of Amiga Aktuell (10/2000) a full version of DA III will be offered as raffle price.

Marvin Droogsma Petro's Aspect of the Story...
AmigaScene from the Netherlands has asked Petro Tyschtschenko on the start of his company and put his answers on ANF to notify:

«First of all many greetings from AmigScene and AGGF from the Netherlands!
We stumbled upon the story of your new company and the relating comment from Bill McEwen. We sure just could publish this, but befor doing so we want to have your story on this. Also if you cannot say anything about it, we ask you for reply. Regards from your dutch followers! Marvin Droogsma»

Petro Tyschtschenko's reply:

«I do not intent to leave my beloved Amiga and to flee from the community by this. It is right that I have taken a 50% share in the Power Service GMBH as an inactive partner to spend my evening of life in financial independence, as I hope so at least. After all I am already 57 years old and so one have to think of this. Still my entire strength belongs to the Amiga and I have not done anything unlawful at the expense of Amiga, at all. It is no crime to take a financial share in a company in whose targets I believe, isn't it. In this sense, your Petro»

Thomas Steiding via e-mail Epic Marketing Germany is restructuring
On 30. September 2000, Epic Marketing Germany will say good-bye after four years in the Amiga market, and will start two new companies on 1. October 2000. Due to this, the homepage is reworked and will be reposted in early October.

The company will be split into two areas on 1. October 2000:

For the Classic Amiga, we will soon present the games Simon The Sorcerer 2, Earth 2140 and Dafel: Bloodline. If this platform will be continuously supported depends on the success of these three products, "Earth 2140", which is in beta phase, can be preordered until 15. October 2000 at a special price.

epic multimedia will be about the distribution of games, info- and edutainment titles for different platforms (Mac, Win, Linux etc.).

Starting immediately, you can search the Aminet for WWW adresses and files. Enter the name of a program whose homepage you are looking for, and just cannot find in the ALD. ALD will scan all files on Aminet matching the search string, and look in the .readme files for WWW adresses. The result of this scan will be listed in a table. To get you results quickly, every link will only be listed once, even if given in several .readme files.

Petro Tyschtschenko Starts a New Company
We found an interesting new entry in the German Central Register of Companies. According to this entry, Petro Tyschtschenko, Vice President of Amiga Inc., Germany, has founded together with Frank Basta a new company named "Power Service GmbH". Here's the entry (Translator: Rüdiger Engel):

Federal legal gazette Item 0161, Date: 20000826 Zentralhandelsregister-Beilage 51 Handelsregister
Power Service GmbH
Street:	Wittelsbacher Allee 58
City:	Frankfurt am Main
Company-Nr.:	60256HRB50102
District Court:	60256 Frankfurt am Main
References:	HRB 50 102 - 08. 08. 2000
Kind of entry:	20 new entry
Date of entry:	20000808
Year of entry:	2000
Text:	HRB 50 102 -- 08. 08. 2000: Power Service GmbH , Frankfurt am Main (Wittelsbacher Allee 58, 60385 Frankfurt). Subject of the enterprise is: Mediation of foreign and native persons at companies within the area of software development, the care of these persons (accomodation, food supply) in conjunction with the mediation etc. as a so-called "all-in-one-service"-offer. Capital stock: 25,000,- EUR. Managing director: Petro Tyschtschenko, born 16.04.1943, Roedermark; Frank Basta, born 23.11.1969, Frankfurt/Main. Limited Company (so-called "GmbH" in Germany). The articles of association were finalized on May, 30th, 2000. The managing directors Petro Tyschtschenko and Frank Basta have sole agency right. They are justified, with itself in the name or as representant of third, to finalize legal transactions with the company. (§ 181 BGB). Not entered: Proclamations of the company are only stated in the federal legal gazette.

Supplement:
Bill McEwen, CEO Amiga, Inc. made the following statement to the above:

"I would be shocked and personally hurt to find out that Petro has not been making Amiga his first priority, and that he has been using his Amiga paid trips to India for his own personal gain. We pay him a wonderful salary, we pay for his Mercedes, his cell phone, and his beautiful offices. He has never spoken to me about any issues or problems, and if he has truly been using our money and time to promote his own company I will be extremely disappointed. I hope that Amiga-News is wrong in their findings."

Thomas Hoppe on ANF New UAE JIT Patch Available
"Just a quick note --- there is a new "bleeding edge" patch for UAE-JIT for Linux. It fixes some minor problems, and adds some important changes to the JIT compiler. If you had stability problems in the past, you might want to try this one. I have made a source patch and a few pre-built binaries available. Please understand that this is more or less a snapshot of work in progress, not a full "release" (can't have a release --- the Premier League had last weekend off due to an international ;-), and as such requires you to know what you are doing.

I am fairly confident that the source compiles, and that the binaries are actually built for what they claim to be built form, but that is about as far as I'll go.... ;-)

If you haven't used UAE-JIT before, and plan to download one of the new binaries, PLEASE also download the "patch against pristine sources" from the Derby County release. You don't want the patch, but you *definitely* want the documentation that comes with the same archive!

FIXED: German GUI DLL is accurate now. (Thanks Georg)
ADDED: Flicker-free Amiga screen updates when full-screen. Doesn't affect Picasso96 screens, though.

Alexander Fritsch on ANF New SSTV-Software for Radio Amateurs
At the link comm/misc/af_mksstv.lha a test version of a program for sending pictures through SSTV (narrow band television) is for download. At the moment you only can send pictures by using the modus Martin M1. No special hardware is required. The output is realized over the audio output of the Amiga - you will hear a 114 seconds long whistle. The recommended hardware is a A1200 with OS3.0, but a faster one would be better.

User comments, bug reports and suggestions are welcomed. A further development depends on the user respond.
