Amiga Arena: Hilt II - German Language Disk Version Online
There's now a stand-alone German disk version of the game Hilt II. In the future you will just need the "mission disk" to download new missions.
The missions "Reactor" and "Catacomb" have recently been made available on the Hilt II page (mission disk). Hilt II may be played from the hard-drive or directly from the floppy disk! Please pay close attention to the notes in the separately downloadable German instructions.

Amiga Speed Is One Year Old
Simon Neumann writes: Amiga Speed is celebrating its first birthday. I wanted to take the opportunity to thank all the Speed testers for their help and all visitors for their feedback. You've made it possible for Amiga Speed to improve and expand. That should also continue into the future, so I'm asking you to keep giving me suggestions for improvement and your reactions. This is the only way Amiga Speed can continue and meet the desires of its visitors.
Naturally there are once more new reviews to pore over. Simply take a look under Payback und Q***e.

Flash: GUI for SWF encoder
Today I have finally finished my GUI for the SWF encoder of the "SWF-Tools". With this encoder you can convert JPEG, PNG or WAV files into Shockwave-Flash files. These are the famous animations on some homepages. This encoder I have already tested and it runs very great on my Amithlon computer and my Amiga 68040. To make people not questioning my programming capabilities I have uploaded a small SWF file to my homepage that I have encoded today with my Amiga. It runs demonstrably with Voyager and with the stand-alone "SWF-Player" from Aminet.

RC5-64 HAS BEEN SOLVED!
On 14-Jul-2002, a relatively characterless PIII-450 in Tokyo returned the winning key to the
distributed.net keyservers. The key 0x63DE7DC154F4D03 produces the plaintext
output:
The unknown message is: some things are better left unread
Unfortunately, due to breakage in scripts (dbaker's fault, naturally) on the keymaster,
this successful submission was not automatically detected. It sat undiscovered until 12-Aug-2002.
The key was immediately submitted to RSA Labs and was verified as the winning key.
