Wipeout 2097 troubles
There is a serious problem when installing the Warp3D archive which is located on the Wipeout2097 CD.
Some libraries don't have a larger version number than the Warp3D libraries of the Warp3D V2 archive,
so that the Warp3D installer doesn't copy the appropriate files. This results into a PPC exception
requester opening after the setup requester is confirmed, and after the screen resp. window becomes
black. This probably only happens, if a Warp3D V2 installation was already present and if the new
archive from the CD was installed afterwards.

Twister1200 available again since HEW! High End, Low Cost...
Due to a misunderstanding, some cards have been sold on the show not including
documentation. Be careful during installation, the new card is now installed
head-down towards the keyboard of the A1200! Twister1200 Rev. 2 has been
modified mechanically by DCE. As reasons
cost saving and compatibility to other products is named. Support is still
provided by Katodev, by e-mail, WWW,
Fax and, if need be, phone after 6:00 PM.

APC & TCP - new products
Since the HEW, four new products for Amiga are available from APC & TCP. The
CD-ROM "The Best of Airsoft Softwair" contains a collection of the FULL versions
of the group that did CD32 Installer, NewInstaller, Rainboot and more.
The Scene Archives 9 is a sequel of the successful scene demo CD-ROM "The Best of
Scene Archives".
A strategy game for Amiga is finally available again: SeaSide. Currently, only the
German version is available. An English version will be released in some weeks. The
game requires AGA, 4 MB RAM and a CD-ROM drive.
With the Info/Beginner CD-ROM, the club offers a CD which is especially
targeted at Amiga newbies and club members. Readily installed tools everyone should
have are included on the CD-ROM as well as all demo versions of APC&TCP, all issues
of NoCover, the complete homepage (which is in itself 300 MByte in size), and various
material by different club members. The CD-ROM is only available directly from APC&TCP,
and is of course continuously expanded and updated.

Update of Aminet GUI
The Aminet GUI now offers a chat. Right now this is sadly unavailable for the current
Amiga browsers! I hope the new versions of the NG browsers fix this shortcomming!
Additionally, there is a guestbook, where everyone is free to leave news, ideas or
criticism for me. For all who like discussing with other users, I added a forum. Here
you can discuss about the Amiga, and you are free for asking for and giving advice
about Amiga problems. Everyone who has a problem can ask, and everyone in the know
can answer. So get to your keyboards... A small change has been applied to the mirror
list. A small flag stands in front of each server, stating the host's country...
Finally, the GUI can now be downloaded as LHA or LZX archive, to make Aminet access
yet faster. The files can be found under Service/Downloads, and are about 880 kByte
in size.

CGXBlanker update
Version 1.20 of CGXBlanker is now configurable with a preferencer, offers some new
features compared to the last version, and a very nice new blanker ("Flower") has been
added. More details at the title link.
PS: In the old archive, I forgot the 020 version of the blanker, only a 040 version was
included... archive 1.21 now contains a 020+ and a 040+ version, and I have added an
Installer script for easy installation.

GlowIcons CD-ROM
Oliver Tacke writes:
Dear Amiga community, in Cologne we (Heinz Andreolla and myself) have given away
CD-ROMs with numerous GlowIcons. Sadly we now have to say it is very bugged. I did
a bad mistake, so most of the icons are too small - only a little bit, but enough to
make a real clean-up with drawers containing lots of icons impossible.
Another problem is that during the stress during the last days before
the show, several binaries were copied to the CD-ROM. I consider it unfair to blame
Heinz as software pirate for this, like some people did. It was a mistake, really,
and if I hadn't delivered the icons only a few days before the show started, Heinz
would have had enough time to avoid this mistake.
Short: we beg your pardon. Consider the distributed CD-ROM as a demo
version. I will now sit down at my system to correct everything as fast as possible.
Moreover, I will do some improvements and expansions, like correctly adjusting the
drawer colors to OS3.5. Considering the number of icons, I beg your pardon for not
being able to do this in one week. I will hurry, anyways.
A first fixed archive with roughly 250 icons is finished and will be
available shortly. The final version will probably be included in the Aminet CD-ROM
Nr. 35, and, if wanted, on Aminet or the reader's CD of the amigaOS.

United Amigans
United Amigans stands for
the idea to make contact with Amiga Inc./Gateway as a group.
On the mission page, Amiga Inc./Gateway is blamed for the current situation,
but on the other hand it is critizised that there was no clear, definite and common
statement of all Amiga users towards Amiga. So, John
Groothof writes that we are ultimately responsible where Amiga will be heading.
United Amigans wants to be a plattform for individuals who want to speak
as one community.
