Music/Sound Expert Sought for Crossfire II

Dreamworlds Development is looking urgently for a music/sound expert who can also add music to animations, in order to prepare Crossfire II. The animations are in MPEG format or if needed in single pictures on a CD. The result of adding the sound should therefore be a timed sample in a common format

There is not going to be much monetary reward involved (because of the overall market situation). The best case scenario would be approximately 100 Euros when the project is published. You can get further details by expressing your interest in an email.

Soms3D Seeks New Partners

Soms has been on ice for a long time because there was a lot of programming to do. This made us really think about things. We decided not to make a 2D adventure, but rather a realtime 3D online role playing game.

To do this we already have a 3D programmer and our first internal beta version. The capabilities of Soms3D will be made public at a later date (assuming our new webpage is online). The adventurers will reach, more or less, a common solution. And naturally all that one may do online must also be doable in an online game.

To reach our goals we still need a bit of help. We are looking for:

  • A musician who can deliver his music in MOD or MIDI form.
  • A programmer who knows his way around Online-Programming.
  • Because Soms3D is based on PPC it would be better when partners have a PPC, especially when programming.
  • Applications or Inquiries go to Sylvio K..

Game 'Armada' released on Aminet

Armada is a round-based game for two to five players. It is a version of a game formerly played with paper and colored pencils. To start off each player places his sea port on the map. As the game progresses players select their ships and attack opposing ships. It depends on the distance and a roll of the dice if the opposing ships are sunk.

Armada-Homepage is here, and here is the Aminet download link: Armada.lha. The author would like to hear some feedback about the game and its homepage.

The Linux/APUS kernel is available in version 2.4.18-2 with CyberstormPPC UW-SCSI support. The following changes have been made, compared to the previous version:
  • Change: The CyberstormPPC UW-SCSI driver should now work. Please mind that it still has more of an experimental character - You have been warned.
  • Change: Deactivated PCI, as this apparently does more bad than good at the moment.

Frank Wille: vbcc version 0.8 und vlink version 0.8 (Update)
Frank Wille has updated two of his programs. The first is vbcc version 0.8, a highly optimized portable ISO C compiler, available in versions for Amiga and MorphOS. The compiler supports ISO C as defined in ISO/IEC 9899:1989 and part of the new standard ISO/IEC 9899:1999 (C99).

Furthermore has Frank Wille released version 0.8 of the linker vlink. vlink is a portable linker written in ANSI-C for several object file formats. The source code should compile under AmigaOS as well as under Unix without any problems. For now are supported: AmigaDos, EHF, ELF32-PowerPC-BigEndian, ELF32-PowerUp, a.out (NetBSD68k, SunOS010, SunOS020, NetBSDi386, PCi386, VOBJ), as well as Motorola S-Record and Raw-Binaries via linker scripts.

Update 14.10.2002:
vbcc was'nt written only by Frank Wille, but also by Volker Barthelmann. (ps) (Translation: wk)

Closing report: U.d.N. presented Pegasos in Bremen
As already reported had the "Users der Nordseeküste" (U.d.N.) shown on October, 5th and 6th 2002 the Pegasos in Bremen at the Videobörse.

We thank the participating companies Vesalia, bplan and MorphOS who made it possible for us to show the Pegasos. On the one hand we didn't want to put the beta testers at a disadvantage but on the other hand we wanted to show the computer to the publicity and we believe that we succeeded. Because of an article in Bremen's biggest newspaper on Sunday we had 5432 visitors on both days. Via the U.d.N. came interested users who wanted to see the Pegasos. more ... (ps) (Translation: wk)
