CD32 Alliance online again The CD32-Alliance pages, maintained by Thorsten Schölzel, are online again, and in a new design. The website is about the CD32 game console, which Commodore released 1993, and its expansions (MPEG module, SX-1, SX32, CD32-joypad etc.). Aside from posting detailed information, the CD32 Alliance wants to make new software available for the CD32, and offers their help for this. A CD32 version of the shareware game Sharks is announced for a self-cost price of 10-12.5 Euro. A screenshot is available from the news area. The website currently offers a news section, information about and pictures of the CD32, a games area planned to offer a complete overview over all CD32 games in the future, opinions about the console and more. A developer area has been announced. (Translation: mb) [News message: 15. Jan. 2000, 08:00] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version] |

Melody Z2 Kato Development writes on their own website: December last year, a limited number of almost-finished Melody Z2 were offered for a special price. The demand was incredibly high, so we wanted to produce some new. Sadly, some of the parts are very hard to get, or completely unavailable. So we cannot produce more Melody Z2 in this form.

Motorola investing in Tao Motorola is investing in Tao Group Ltd., and is planning to use Taos Virtual Processor and the Java-based OS technology in products of their own (e.g. mobile communication, Internet). An important issue for portable applications is the virtual code needing less memory than native code, despite being executed fast. With a RISC CPU, the memory factor is 1.4 to 1.7. Charig: "We currently work with a number of partners from consumer electronics. Motorola is not the only important partner, but the first investor." (Translation: mb) [News message: 15.

Hyperion Software looking for programmers For upcoming projects, Hyperion Software is looking for a programmer. Experience in C/C++ and Warp3D and, ideally, OpenGL are required. Experience in PowerPC programming (WarpUP) would be a bonus, but are not required. Hyperion Software offers you the possibility to work on one of the best games to be released for Amiga. And this work is of course payed for. If you are interested, contact BenH@hyperion-software.de. (Translation: mb) [News message: 15.

15.Jan.2000 Fleecy Moss in a newsgroup |
Setting some things straight* Forwarded from "Team Amiga" Mailinglist * Originally from: fleecy moss (fleecy@earthlink.net) * Original date: Fri, 14 Jan 2000 11:19:45 -0500 In my trawling around the community hangouts, I have come across several misconceptions, rumours, and a lot of confusion. Whilst I can't hope to answer everything, here are some things I want to set straight. 0. Amiga will build a digital content universe. Digital content means anything composed of 0 and1 - applications, video, audio, games, emails, whatever. We will focus on 2 markets, the pathfinder market, for digital adventurers, power users, gamers, content creators, DTPers, artists, video ppl and those who refuse to define a computer as a digital appliance. Our second market will cocentrate on the Domestic Digital Habitat (DDH). 1. If you are a personal computer person, there will be a personal computer second wave Amiga. 2. We will support classic development in so much as we want to help users and developers transition to a new machine. That will be the total extent of our support for the classic machine. If this involves further AmigaOS releases, then so be it. 3. We are targetting x86 and PPC for the first consumer release of Pathfinder products (if you are a personal computer person, this means you). 4. We will do everything in our power (that doesnt bankrupt us or interfere with our primary goals) to ensure classic Amiga software runs on the new machine in some form or another.. The new Amiga product family (formerly called AQUA) will run natively and hosted. This is to create a large market fast for Amiga developers to profit from. For the first pathfinder release it will run hosted to see this market grow fast. We see one of our core duties as serving the developers. 6. We are talking to the Phoenix Consortium about common interests. 7. We have been contacted by QNX but currently have no plans to work with them. 8. We will develop Amiga products for another market, the Domestic Digital Habitat (DDH) market. This markets will be kept separate but products will work together if the installer so desires it. 9. There will be a new website and it will be public shortly. It has been tested on all browsers, Amiga and non Amiga, and given the compatibility problems between the implementations of open standards, our best effort has been made. The site will grow quickly and more information will be added. We want it to become a village where all Amigans can come to voice their opinions, chat, and travel off to different parts of the Amiga universe. a. A developer support manager has been selected and they are working on implementing the developer support program. This will be in place before the developer boxes are released. b. The developer boxes are specced out, we have contacted several whitebox manufacturers and we are building the distribution. c. Amiga will not provide dates until we have a product. We will share timelines, but will not attach dates to them. Enough damage has already been done. d. We have had acceptances from 75% of our development team and their names and roles will be announced once we get back from training (before the end of the month). This mail can be redistributed without modification within the community. As further questions and issues come up, we will attempt to answer them.(Translation: mb) [News message: 15.

14.Jan.2000 Audio Evolution |
Audio Evolution Davy Wentzler writes: It has been a while again since this page was updated, and this time it's quite bad news: 4 months ago I strained both my arms and hands and was not able to program anymore. It's been better since then, but still I can only work for a few hours on Audio Evolution in the weekends, otherwise it would take too much of my health. This means that there has not been a lot of progress lately, but I'm working on something that requires a major overhaul of the program, and I think you'll like it! Unfortunately, I can't tell when the next release will be and when I recover from my injury. Cross your fingers! (Translation: mb) [News message: 14.

Istec 100x configuration tool Christoph Dietz writes: Swen Stullich has stopped development on the configuration tools for the phone systems Istec 100x. I was able to talk him into providing me with the sources and a generic keyfile, so both will be available in the future and development of the tool can be continued if an interested programmer can be found. So I divided program and source on two archives (UFT-Istec_usr.lha and UFT-Istec_dev.lha) and uploaded them to Aminet. (Translation: mb) [News message: 13.

Interview with Petro Tyschtschenko Daniel Orth writes: In an interview with amiga.topcool.de, Petro Tyschtschenko said that Amiga already sold 12,000 OS 3.5, this number however being not yet sufficient to earn money. That would take 25,000. Moreover, Petro commented on the fusion of the German print magazines amigaOS - Amiga Plus. He regrets that there are only two Amiga magazines left (counting in the PCgo add-on Amiga Magazin). However he regards the amigaOS as "a very professional magazine".
