IRC Chat Server will be Switched Off
This is not a special amiga thing but I often see users using AmIRC at the IRC-NET.
The oldest chatserver irc.uni-erlangen.de became a target of massive DDoS attacks from england yesterday (sunday).
The IRC-operators were forced to cut the connection of the chatserver off because the homepage of the university of erlangen
was not longer reachable. With that the premiere HUB-server for the whole EU was offline. If someone attacks
irc.freenet.de now the whole EU will be cut off from the IRCNET.
irc.uni-erlangen.de will be online again by tomorow. Some of the attackers came from germany. Hopefully they will be soon
uncovered and be called to account.

Amiga Future: Secret Revealed !
The future of the German Amiga games magazine "Amiga Future"
The end ? NO ! A new begining !
Andreas Magerl explains the future on a special page (German).
In fact the so far publisher the Falke-Verlag will discontinue production and selling of Amiga Future
after issue #27 because of commercial considerations.
Preventing the last Amiga game magzin from being closed Andreas Magerl will continue to work with his editors.
Selling will be based on subscriptions. Therefore you have to know that Andreas Magerl was responsible for the content
and the Falke-Verlag for the layout and sales. Because he has not the marketing channels as a big publishing house has, the
further existence depends on the number of subscriptions. A subscription form is available here.
At the moment there are 6 issues availabel for 60 DM with costs of shipment inclusive (insdide of Germany).

InstallKit V3.8 and Locale for NewInstaller
Airsoft released version 3.8 for the InstallKits and an update for the locale files for NewInstaller V1.5 on
August, 13th 2000.
The CD32 Games Install Kit now supports some additional games and is now significant more flexible in booting.
Furthermore many loaders have been overworked.
Version 1.6 for NewInstaller will keep us waiting for some more time, thus there is a single release of the
updated translations by ATO, at the first.

SViewIV als ImageFX-Loader
All owners of a keyfile for SViewIV can now use SViewIV as loader module for ImageFX V2.6+ due to
the SuperView IFX loader module. By the use of the optional PPC module, the SuperView library, download time
can be reduced notedly. SViewIV supports more than 30 graphics formats.
Anyone who owns a valid keyfile for SViewIV now also can utilize the
new "SUPERVIEW" IFX loader module with ImageFX 2.6 and above - it's
distributed as part of the main program, but add-on wise.
Additional ultra-speed can be achieved through SuperView-Library's
optional PPC modules - which are working completely transparently.
Additional information on SViewIV/PPC can be found under
http://www.ar-kleinert.de - including download links to
Aminet and to the RegNet creditcard-based online registration site.
If you can't wait, here's some more information.
SViewIV comes with the following SVObject loaders for images:
- IFF-ACBM - Windows,OS/2 BMP - PNM (PBM,PGM,PPM)
- IFF-ILBM - JPEG (JFIF v6) - IMG (GEM Graphics)
- IFF-DEEP - PhotoCD - WPG (WP Bitmaps)
- IFF-FAXX - TIFF - MacPaint MAC
- IFF-PBM - PCX - EPS (Header/PS)
- IFF-RGB8 - Atari Degas - C64 (Koala, Doodle)
- IFF-RGBN - Spectrum ZX - TIM
- IFF-RGFX - XWD - FBM
- IFF-YUVN - Windows Icon - CDR-Previews
- QRT/POV Raytrace - Mac PICT-2 - SGI
- SPP - SVG - Targa
- Pictor/PCPaint - SunRaster - UtahRLE
- PNG - CVP (passphoto) - Icons (WB/Magic/New)
as well as all OS3-Datatypes
and 24 Bit DataTypes (picture.datatype V43).
Many formats with 24 Bit-Support.
Reads XPK- and PP20-packed data via Unpack.svobject.
Writes C-Sourcecode in chunky/RGB notation.
Together with external third party programs also the
following file formats seamlessly can be embedded:
File Format needs program also needs support for
---------------------------------------------------------
- AMF MetaView (ILBM)
- CLP MetaView (ILBM)
- DXF/AutoCAD (tm) MetaView (ILBM)
- FIG AmiFIG (Postscript)

future releases.

Pictris Released
APC&TCP today has released a new game. Pictris is available directly from APC&TCP from now, and
after a few days from the Amiga specialized trade, of course. Pictris is kind of a puzzle game. The
player's job is to mark the right boxes on the screen by mathematical hints, in order to uncover
the picture as fast as possible. The faster this has been done, the higher the score gets. All in all
there are 240 different puzzles with different skill levels availabel.
A demo version of the game is available on the home page, and of course also at Aminet. A few days ago
a subsequent demo version of SeaSide was released, which was available since November 1999.

New Executive Update
August 8, 2000 - Greetings to the Global Amiga Family
It has been a hectic several weeks, and we are moving even faster this
week.
There will be some new announcements in the next few days that should be
of interest to everyone as we work hard to expand the members of the Amiga
family.
I would like to say a big "Thank You" to everyone who attended the show in
Sacramento California, and another special thank you to John and Jan
Zacharius and the rest of the SACC team. They did a great job.
I am writing this letter as a quick answer to some questions that I have
received in the last 48 hours.
As mentioned before, if you hear something that you need to confirm,
ask. Every member of the Amiga team is more than willing to answer
questions. It gets somewhat tiresome to constantly get rumors sent to us
after they have been out there for several days or even weeks.
Here are answers to two rumors that need to be addressed immediately:
- Once you sell the remaining A1200's you are pulling out of Germany.
Answer: No. We have no plans of pulling out of Germany. In fact we are
looking at ways to increase our presence in all of Europe, Asia, South
America, and even here in North America. There are several ideas on the
table, and even some names have been attached to the ideas. There will
more information available when we are ready to share the plans.
We are certainly not going to disregard the business in these markets. We
are a growing company and very excited about the future.
- You are going to begin selling new A4000's and there are already 1,000
of these new A4000's being built.
Answer: Who came up with this one? There is no manufacturing of any
Amiga except the new desktop, notebook, and handheld in the works.
I have asked before, and now I will ask again, please stop these
rumors. If you hear one, contact any member of the Amiga Team directly,
and we will answer you.
Thank you for your continued support.
Kindest regards,
Bill McEwen, and the rest of the Amiga Team (ps)
