Amiga Arena: Interview with Grzegorz Tanski (Kray Raytracer)
From the beginning of this year a new freeware "scene" raytraycer is under development - "Kray". The Amiga Arena talked to Grzegorz Tanski about why this development was started and what we may expect for the future. There are other programs and interesting demo versions of a 3D soccer game on his homepage. As the Amiga Arena came to know, Grzegorz Tanski really is interested in developing high quality software, if there is qualified hardware. (ps) (Translation: mj)

The Kickstart Archives V1.3
With permission of Alex Lupták, Gregory Donner and Ian Chapman you can now also browse through the newest versions of hardware reference Lex Site (ca. 80 MB), the Workbench Nostalgia and the Big Book of Amiga Hardware (ca. 90 MB) offline.

Changes:
  • updated: Workbench Nostalgia of Gregory Donner (07/01/2002)
  • updated: The Big Book of Amiga Hardware of Ian Chapman (27/12/2001)
  • updated: Lex Site of Alex Lupták (21/11/2001)
  • added: Haynie's Garage Sale!
  • added: User Guides, Manuals, Service Manuals as PDF-files
    • Commodore A590 Service Manual
    • Commodore A1060 User's Guide
    • Commodore A2088/2286 Manual
  • updated: Search index for client offline search engine


Dave Haynie gave the permission using the pictures and texts of his eBay-offer "Haynie's Garage Sale!". These sites contain interesting background information of many products and prototypes of the Commodore's developing department.

Amiga, Inc. (Vince Pfeifer) and MacroSystem Digital Video AG (Ibrahim Tertemiz) gave the permission to publish manuals of their products as PDF-files on the CD. Manuals of XiPaint, Samplitude and MovieShop of MacroSystem are not included. The first manuals are included but more producers and manuals will follow.

The index of the search engine allows you search for headwords of all new sites which were added. For using it you must have a browser with full JavaScript support. This function offers none of the presently available Amiga browsers. Therefore you have to use different operating systems. Of course the link page works fine on each system. Unfortunately under Linux there are some restrictions because at the beginning the use of small/capital letters when creating files has been neglected.

You can look at all PDF-files on Amiga with the help of the current version of Apdf. THE KICKSTART ARCHIVES costs USD/EUR 10,- (without transport costs, Germany EUR 1,50, Europe EUR 3,- and worldwide USD 3,- normal and USD 5,- air mail). You have to pay USD/EUR 5,- (without transport costs) for updating your old version. (ps) (Translation: dr)

If you have tested a program that it not on the list yet, we would be pleased it you would tell us about that. Please use our form. Thank you very much. (ps)

Elbox: VHI Studio - Mediator drivers
Elbox Computer is happy to announce availability of new drivers for the Mediator busboard.

For users of the Mediator PCI for Amiga 1200 and Mediator PCI for Amiga 4000 busboards with the Mediator Multimedia CD package, drivers have been released as of today for the VHI Studio software. These drivers have been prepared by Elbox Computer programmers.

VHI Studio produced by Innovative, is a video-editing and snapshot-software including webcam- and timelapse-support and featuring (PPC-supported) highspeed-MPEG-compression and realtime-preview-facilities. It currently supports all major digitizer-boards and DigiCams on the AMIGA and is the most popular digitizing and recording-software on the AMIGA-market.

Using the VHI Studio program, users of TV cards in Mediator may now grab and edit snapshots and video sequences from broadcast and cable TV and any other signal sources connected to the input of the TV tuner card, for example: video cameras, TV SAT tuners, DVD players and VCR players.

All you need is:
Mediator PCI busboard
TV tuner card
Voodoo graphic card
VHI Studio software

Enjoy snapshots and videos to your heart's content. More creativity. More fun.
