Ralf Steines (ANF) Back to the Roots V2.41 - Patch Level 3
Nachfolgend lesen Sie einen englischen Bericht von Ralf Steines zu den jüngsten Entwicklungen rund um Back to the Roots (BTTR).

So konnten seit dem letzten Bericht einige Lücken im Fred Fish Memorial Archive geschlossen werden. Auch erhielt man von Marty Flickinger die Genehmigung, die von ihm zusammengestellten "Fish'n'More"-CDs von Xetec Inc. online zu stellen. Einige Fish-CDs konnten bisher vom BTTR-Team jedoch noch nicht aufgetrieben werden, einschließlich der "Fish'n'More"-CDs 1 und 2 sowie Cover-Scans der dritten Ausgabe.

Als weitere Nebenprojekte wurden zudem ein Atari-CD-ROM-Archiv, ein Archiv für die spanische Szene sowie ein Bereich Initial Music eingerichtet, welcher MP3-Dateien der Musik von Spielen beinhaltet, für die BTTR eine Lizenz besitzt.

Im Anschluss die offizielle Pressemitteilung:

Fred Fish's final trip

Today, Saturday, December 1, 2007 the family and close friends of Fred Fish will meet in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, to give Fred a last "farewell". At 12:00 noon PST (20:00 GMT) Fred's wife Michelle will spread Fred's ashes in the one place he really loved, the sea. If you have a minute, and you liked his work, send him a farewell too - Ashes to ashes, Fish to fish.

Fred Fish Memorial Archive

Since our last update we received quite some missing material, like Fresh Fish Vol.1 (Rev.1), Fresh Fish Vol.2 and Gold Fish Vol.3 (single CD version), but we still search missing CDs. We also received a license from Marty Flickinger who compiled the "Fish'n'More" for Xetec Inc. CDs to put them online. Thanks Marty! We start with Fish'n'More Vol.3, and still search for people who own Vol.1 and Vol.2, plus cover scans of Vol.3.

Atari CD-ROM archive

Due to the enormous output from the Atari scene we have started another little side project listing Atari related material we have online here. Since a while we host two CD series from Lotek Style aka MC Laser of TSCC, the Atari mods and music collection "Fading Twilight" which we just added 4 new CDs, and the demo and scene material collection "No Fragments" which even got extended by 6 further CDs. Thanks Lotek Style!

Spanish Scene Collections

Another scene with an enourmous output these days is the spanish scene, so we dedicated it another side project. Besides updating our mirror of the modulez.org spanish mod scene ftp, we also added the third CD of the spanish modules compilations Modplanet now. Finally we added the Spanish Scene compilations by Dargo^LLFB spanning 5CD and te first Avalon CD by Vago^Avalon Software, all with spanish scene output. Big thanks go to Fermix^LLFB for this huge upload!

Initial Music

This in a nice new hosted project by the danish scene musician The Boss^6th Dimension, which is also planned and prepared since years. Here you can download game music from early Amiga games covered by our licenses, transcoded to the MP3 format. This is also a good example how a hosted site can benefit of this place and its licenses. So far BTTR had no boss, only team members. Now we have one - The Boss of 6th Dimension. ;-) (snx)
