Game: Freespace Update for PPC and 68k
There is now an update for the full version of Freespace available at www.hyperion-entertainment.com (title link).

We released yesterday an update (both PPC and 68k versions) for the full version of Freespace. This update adds some new explosion sound effects to the game, additionally the mouse control and the CD32 Joypad Control was enhanced. Also the AlphaTexture settings for the Warp3D Renderer of Freespace are now always configured correctly, so that Voodoo 3 owners do not need to set the Alpha manually. The update is for download for registered users of Freespace for AmigaOS. There are two seperate archives, one for PPC, one for 68k. (ps)

AROS Update from 12.02.2002
Work on the Amiga Research Operating System is making progress. Details of the most recent development can be found over at the AROS website (title link). In summary, various bugs all over AROS have been dealt with, a lot of changes to the underlying framework (the build process) were introduced, the Palm flavor has been worked on and both minor and major enhancements have been made (including the long awaited "pci.hidd", which is meant to communicate with all sorts of hardware within the computer thru higher level hardware interfaces, such as the brand new "nvidia.hidd" - although still in a juvenile stage, the "Hardware Independant Device Driver"-system is expected to grow in the future).

Virus Help Denmark: Virusz III v0,96 bug
After a lot of bug-reports about the new VirusZ III v0,96, the Bug has been found. If you use a screen size under 800x600, VirusZ III v0,96 can not do the filecheck, the you must use VirusZ III v0,94b until Georg Hoermann has made an new update of VirusZ III. Here is what Georg wrote to me:

> -- email start --
I already received lots of those bug reports, and I have already found the bug. Dirk increased the window size and didn't test it on plain 640 pixel screens, so VZ 0.96 refuses to work on that resolution. I didn't notice that because I use a 800x600 screen :-
The bugfix is on the way, but I maybe add some other features to VZ first..
- Georg....
> --- email end ---

VirusZ III v0,94b can be found on our website. Quicklink here: http://home4.inet.tele.dk/vht-dk/amiga/vz/vz.htm. (ps)

Game: Battlefield survey concerning low participation
From the Battlefield home page:
The end of the graphic competition isn't the end of Battlefield... Despite low participation things are progressing in the graphic sector.

However, everybody was very disappointed because of the poor result of the competition.... In order to find out the reasons why hardly anybody participated, a survey is taking place at the moment. (sd) (Translation: sr)

Virus Help Denmark: WatchDog 2.7
On 16 February 2002 Zbigniew Trzcionkowski released version 2.7 of his memory surveillance tool 'WatchDog'. Compared to version 2.5 the following modifications have been made.
  • added checking of some BCPL stuff (which is totally harmless since os37+ anyways).
    • CallGVptr - ROM check
    • EndGVptr - ROM check
    • GlobVecTable - checksumming, that should detect patches of any GV based viri including imaginary ones like GlobVec144 ;) Thanks to Thomas Richter and Holger Hippenstiel for information about GV that helped me a lot...
  • added new tooltype 'NoGlobVec' to skip tests described above - it is already set in the icon as nobody beside me needs these checks!
  • added notification of LIBS:xvs.library
  • added some additional stuff to tc_launch/tc_switch checker
  • changed timing routine
  • ToolTypes: NoSwitch and NoLaunch are no longer debug only :P
  • kicked bonus stuff due to lack of users' interest


The tool uses the xvs.library in order to check every three seconds if there're any known viri in the memory. Further features have been added which you can find in the documentation.

'Watchdog' runs from AmigaOS 2.04 and needs the xvs.library.
