amiga-news.de currently reworked
We are switching the website completely to SSI (Server Side Includes). Therefore some links
to subpages might not yet work perfectly. In this case, the "Home Button" does however always
bring you back to the main page. We hope to finish the change tonight (December 17th).
Tomorrow we will be back with the news.

Epic Marketing News
Did you enjoy the charming adventures of little Simon as much as we did? Did you always
hope for the successor to be ported to Amiga? Have you been mad because this great game
was only available for PC? Now there is the opportunity to change this...
Epic Marketing got the license to port Simon The Sorcerer II to Amiga. On the one hand,
we are of course very proud to get the opportunity to port this great adventure to the
Amiga. But with the latest ongoings at Amiga (Inc) we have to ask ourselves how many
Amiga users at all are interested in a first class game? The license, the porting and
the production of SImon The Sorcerer II won't be cheap. So we decided to do a pre-order
campaign. We need 500 pre-orders to do Simon The Sorcerer II for Amiga. When we reach
the 500 limit, the game should be available in 8 weeks.
We will update the pre-order
data on our homepage weekly. Simon The Sorcerer will run on all AGA or gfx board systems
with 030 CPU and sufficient memory (about 8 MB fast). The game will only be released on
CD.
Please place your pre-orders here:
Online: order@epic-marketing.de

Fax: (+49) (0)7071 400493

Amiga games wish list
Andreas Magerl writes:
On our homepage, area "Aktion", you'll find a form for entering
your top 5 wish list for games on Amiga. The submissions are evaluated regulary, and published
in each issue of Amiga Future and our homepage.
Of course it only makes sense if
enough users participate. The idea is to show coders and companies over a long timespan which
games are wanted by Amiga users.

AmigaOS 3.5 - self-made fix for broken AGA buttons
Michaela Prüß writes:
For all those who still have the problem with
AWeb 3 SE (OS 3.5), or probably all other AWeb versions, too, that there are some
colored dots instead of the buttons at the top: There is a way to fix it (already
reported to amiga.de):
Load images/def_buttons in a graphics program (I did it with PPaint). Expand the
palette from 8 to 16 colors, and copy the 8 colors to the 8 new ones. Then adjust
the first 8; it doesn't matter to what, but it must not be any of the original 8
colors. With PPaint, all you have to do is commiting a color adjustment, and the
buttons look like before (almost, I had to swith RED and GREEN manually). Then cut
it out (preferrably more precise than I did), and save it as imags/def_buttons
(back up the original, you never know...). With the 16-color version it worked on
first try, and I can finally see the buttons. If someone gets it done precisely,
please send me a copy - I never got the hang to paint programs...
Oh, yes,
the 16 colors. Don't tell me you surf with 8 colors and it wouldn't work that way.
If you surf the web with 8 colors, you should be used to looks like that...
Dennis Gronewald followed up:
There is an easy way to get rid of the gfx bugs in AWeb. Simply enter the image
drawer of AWeb. Here you find the file "def_Buttons". Simply put braces around the
"Transparent" tool type. Worked for me.

New CD32 game
Andreas Etzrodt writes:
Good news: We recieved permission by Petro Tyschtschenko himself
to offer CD32 games. Without license fees. Citing Petro: "Dear Andreas, we don't want to make
money by that. As long as it is not commercial, it's free." Since we already distribute it as
Shareware, luckily we don't face any additional costs.
By the way, many have misunderstood
our first announcement. Of course we don't want to release a commercial game, with pressed CDs
including cover. We want to create a runnable CD32 CD with our own CD-R. Of course it will include
a cover, but only a self-printed one.
So interested CD32 owners can contact us, and probably place their pre-order. The CD will not
cost more than 15 Euro, probably much less (we did not yet calculate what is possible).
Oh, and for those who missed the first announcement: We talk about the Shareware game "SHARKS!",
which is available as demo version from Aminet. Most likely it will be adapted to AGA, so the
hardware performance of the CD32 is used.
More details from:

Source code for DESCENT 2 released!
Sascha Koebner writes:
At the title link, capable Amiga coders can download the source
code for 'Descent 2' (by Interplay), and of course port it (!). 'Descent 2' is the successor
of the successful 360 degree 3D shooter. The comparatively smart KI, and the heavily improved
3D engine compared to 'Descent 1' should be enough motivations for coders to try their skills
at it. It seems to be the source code for the PC version 1.2.

VersCheck V2 FINAL RELEASE
Michaela Prüß writes:
Starting immediately, VersCheck v2.19 (FINAL RELEASE)
is available for download from my homepage. An Aminet upload has been submitted, it should
be available there tomorrow.
FINAL RELEASE, since I need the next version of VersCheck
for my Install script project, so I finished everything important that was left open or
undone, and created a last update release. The next version will therefore be v3 (assuming
there are no necessary bugfixes to do). What has changed?
- Some settings can be done by ENV:
- The whole version sensing has been reworked, being faster and safer
- Output can optionally be done in ANSI (so important things can be highlighted)
- A small statistic has been added
- Some small and large fixes have been done, internal help -? updated
- Two bad memory faults, which seldomly occured, but were there
in the old version, have been detected and removed
- Special News-Doc in the doc drawer "NewInThisVersion"
- New .catalogs (update only German / English so far. So do the update with Installer only)
- Internal ReqTools requesters replaced by ASL requesters.
I had problems getting the old requesters to work with WarpOS and PowerUP, with numerous
memory faults. The ASL requesters do work, and are 100% identical with WarpOS and PowerUP.
To all who still have my Webjump homepage in their bookmarks: Due to the bad bandwidth and
continuous server downtimes, I moved the pages to http://24.132.37.25/~Gateway/, a different,
very fast "free web service" (for all still looking for such, have a look at http://24.132.37.25/index.html).
The old address does however link to the current page. Since I wanted it to be easier, there
are direct adresses to the pages (please only use these, web layout will change shortly).
- http://Gateway.To/Gateway5 (login with language choice)
- http://Gateway.To/Gateway5/D (German contents)
- http://Gateway.To/Gateway5/E (English contents)
- NW:LGateway5 (NETWORD call) does currently NOT work with the three Amiga browsers, only
with Netscape and IE. Should be implemented some time, however.

We, too, have been affected by the moving of one of the biggest providers (Xlink). The server
responsible for our web pages (http), their maintenance (ftp) and e-mails (pop3) are either
unavailable or offer only very low bandwidth. We ask for your patience, since we cannot switch
providers fast enough.

You are always looking for mp3 input, e.g. for AmigaAMP. Who still remembers the rock
legend "Birth Control" and their hit "Gammaray"??? A great remake of this song has been
released for free download by the original artists at
www.birth-control.de/CD-gammaray90.htm (title link).
For rock fans a must-have, for techno fans a gateway to new dimensions... :-).

Following a wish by Ingo Bowe, greetings to you, I expanded the
upload list by a new function. This function allows changing the list sorting, which can now
be done by date or directory. Also new is the server choice. By clicking on the country flag
you can switch to the uploads of the according mirror server. This function is also available
for the search function. For the other directories this is in the works.
In the update
of December 10th, I made an embarrasing mistake, which has already been fixed. However, I
realized that some 4.x versions of Netscape Navigator do have problems with my target tags.
I try to fix the problem as soon as possible.
On this point, I want to mention my forum
and my guestbook. Both can be found in the top bar at "Interactive". Tell me what you think
of my page, or whatever you have to say about Amiga. I am looking forward to your posts.

TreeList source code released
John Haubrich, too, has released the source code for almost all his programs. Download:
www.kc.net/~johnhkc/amigasrc/
He writes:
Nearly all of my Amiga source code has been released on my web page including
source for the lovely TreeList MUI custom class. If you are planning to update TreeList, I
have a few suggestions:
- Implement a getter that returns the order of the tree.
- Use this value to dynamically allocate stack space for the iterator methods instead of requiring
the class user to allocate the buffer manually. (What do you think of THAT, Allan?? Trust me -- he
likes it!)
- Send a unique code into the iterators so that multiple iterators may still be used.
** The only problem is: who frees the stack buffers? I guess you'll need a FinishUsingIterator method.
Finally, I'm selling my A4000T on EBay (soon) which has all the source and more...
P.S. If 100 people will send me $100,000 each, I'll continue developing for Amiga. ;-)

AudioLabs News
ProStationAudio Version 2.50 will be available for a millenium special price. Further details
in the official press release:
From: AudioLabs info@audiolabs.it
To: team@amiga-news.de
Date: Tue, 14 Dec 1999 17:07:46 +0100
Subject: News
Press Release
DATE: 14-Dec-99
TOPIC: NL-editing system for Amiga, Flyer and Draco
CONTACT: info@audiolabs.it
AmigaOS goes back to Hollywood!
EMRL (http://www.emrl.com) is handling the production of the first
AudioLabs (http://www.audiolabs.it) commercial shot on film, focusing
on the ProStationAudio software for AmigaOS.
Stills from the set are online at:
http://www.audiolabs.it/news.html
http://usa.audiolabs.it/news.html
The location was Chapman University audio studio, in Los Angeles.
The 30 second commercial was shot in color using an Arriflex SR16
camera, with Kodak Vision film. The script deals with a studio
recording session, involving a cellist playing in the recording
room, while a sound engineer works on ProStationAudio for AmigaOS
in the control room.
The film footage will be digitally captured for post-prodution
on an Amiga-based NewTek Flyer system. Audio post-production
will be performed with ProStationAudio itself.
EMRL is pioneering hi-quality film-based productions for Internet
distribution. Their film-based commercials are shot with care for
classic aspects of production such as lighting and exposure, and
also take into account Internet related details like video
compression and motion artifacts reduction.
To celebrate the last ProStationAudio release of this millennium,
AudioLabs is offering, until December 27th, 1999, the fresh new
ProStationAudio 2.50 at a special discount price.
When ordering before the deadline, you can get ProStationAudio 2.50
for US$299 instead of US$395.
ProStationAudio 2.50 is the ultimate solution for digital audio on
AmigaOS. It integrates with existing technologies and pushes them
forward: from native Studio16 files support to NewTek Flyer audio
clips import/export, from Draco binary compatibility to AHI-compatible
support for almost every card on the market, from Elite/SoundStage
EDL import to dual-CPU/dual-monitor operating modes.
Starting January, AudioLabs will expand the ProStationAudio family
of products with the hi-end ProStationAudio Millennium. The new
application, among other features, doubles editing power by
supporting 32 audio channels in the timeline.

Problems with ImageFX 4.0
There is a problem with the latest versions of ImageFX 4.0 and 4.1 under AmigaOS 3.5. Cycle
gadgets are not displayed! Obviously ImageFX cannot handle the chooser.gadget version of
3.5. Haage & Partner and Nova Design have already been notified by me.
I have created a little patch in the meantime, patching ImageFX to make use of the chooser.gadget
from the Aminet ClassAct demo, so the program is at least usable.
The patch should appear in Aminet soon: gfx/ifx/IFX-patcher.lha.
The patch and more
information about it is available from my homepage (title link) under ARexx-Scripts.
And one hint for ImageFX 4.0 CD: The installation cannot be started from CD, since the
Installer icon and the script have different names. So copy everything to hard drive (about
8 MB), and then start installation.

New Amiga CD32 game
Andreas Etzrodt writes:
Hello CD32 owners! Aren't you upset that there aren't even "simple"
new games for your system? There you are owning an "Amiga compatible" console and cannot access
all games... Solution: home made!
We (Christian Steiner and myself) succeeded in burning
the Shareware game "Sharks!" (coded by Christian, demo on Aminet) to CD and make it run on an
Amiga CD32.
This is owed to Michael Ulbrich, who gave me many hints. Due to his help,
it worked on first try. Many thanks to Michael!
Why I am writing this? I would like to know if there is interest in expanding this game as CD32
version. I mean if noone would want the game, it isn't worth the time to "pep it up". And there
are license issues to clarify. You need a "Trademark File", which had to be licensed from Amiga
(at least in Commodore times). I will write to Amiga Int. if this is still necessary, and how
much it would cost.
So write me if you are interested in a CD32 version of Sharks!.
Besides, Sharks! does not have to be our last game for CD32. We can of course release other
(self written) games in CD versions. But as I said before, clarify the license issues and
judge interest in this. (You can already contact me anyhow.) E-mail: the_shark@gmx.de.

New Image Engineer PlugIn
Visual Border grows and splits as 2 separate plug-ins.
Visual Alpha is that new plug-in. It allows you to create grey alpha masks, which you, after
once calculated, can keep and composite with other images later. For people, who are not
familiar with alpha masks; Think about a stamp or actually it's edges. This plug-in can
create you a stamp shaped image and mask with smooth edges. You can then composite it to
a bigger image. Ofcourse there are other more complex effects, than simple edge effects.
This could be great tool for one, who is creating graphics for video.
Visual Card-plug-in also will soon benefit from Visual Alpha.
OFFER OF THE MONTH
Register Visual Border for Image Engineer and get Visual Alpha for free. This could be very
good christmas present for somebody. However last day to order is 9. January 2000. So, if you
next morning after change of millennium, find couple of wrinkled bucks from you pocket...
Remember that all minor and major updates of registered plug-ins will always be
free for you. Already registered users of Visual Border will get version of Visual Alpha with
few effects for free. Just for being good customers.
Visual Engineering is a powerful collection of plug-ins, scripts and graphical
material for shareware image manipulation program, Image Engineer.
Plug-ins bring new features to Image Engineer, what even by itself can do lots of
image manipulation tricks. All the plug-ins are controlled by user friendly GUI. With couple
of mouse clicks, you can do heavy image manipulation. Logos? Click. Frames around image? Click.
Most of the plug-ins are free. Some of them aren't. I'm sure the few graphical
examples at new website of Visual Engineering should convince you. You can however try
demoversions of non-free plug-ins. Online shopping is possible by a credit card.

WBInfo 3.0 - not enough interested so far
Some weeks ago, we issued a request for people interested in a v3 version of WBInfo
to contact us and answer the following questions:
- Who is using WBInfo in which configuration?
- What are the things you don't like in WBInfo?
- What is your personal wish list for WBInfo?
- If WBInfo would be Shareware, what would you be willing to pay for it?
So far, we recieved only 9 mails. That's a little frustrating. If you are interested,
please contact us. If a minimum of 20 announces
interest in a Shareware version, we start development.

16th Chaos Communication Congress in Berlin, December 27th-29th 1999
Hello friends of chaos, you always try your best, but that's how things are going:
You had to wait until the last second for the website and the FAQ. That's over now.
With the next mail, the complete FAQ will be going down the Chaos Update. Click the
title link for info.
But now for the Congress: just as last year, the Congress is taking place in Berlin,
house Am Köllnschen Park. Those who attended last year will easily find their way,
since we are planning only minimal changes.
The rooms are changed only slightly, the important parts (lecture rooms and hack center)
will be as usual. The press rule has been simplified, and one achievement from the camp
or another can be found on the congress. Have a look at the
projects.
Perhaps there is something in there for you. If you are planning to join the congress
with an interesting project of your own, contact orga.
Otherwise we wish you and ourselves a relaxed congress, and most important much fun
at the systems.
The chaos at the end of the so-called millenium
