"Tomorrow"-Zugang als Gebührenfalle
Wer sich in diesen Tagen bei MobilCom zum zweiten Versuch des Internet-Zugangs zum
Tomorrow-Tarif anmeldet,
kann den Status seines Zugangs online abfragen. Doch Vorsicht: Nicht freigeschaltete
Zugänge werden dabei irreführend als "offen" bezeichnet. Das legt nahe,
man könne bereits für 77 Mark im Monat ohne zusätzliche Telefon- und
Online-Gebühren surfen. Tatsächlich kostet es aber stolze 16 Pfennig pro
Minute, wenn man den "offenen" Zugang nutzt. Erst wenn der Status auf "freigeschaltet"
gewechselt hat, gilt der Pauschaltarif.
Und MacGadget merkt zu diesem Thema an:
Mobilcom: Erneut Probleme mit Internet-Pauschalzugang
Mobilcom hat es nach wie vor nicht
geschafft, die eigene Internet-Infrastruktur dahingehend zu verbessern, daß
Geschwindigkeit und Stabilität gewährleistet sind. Zwar wurden die
Sicherheitslücken behoben, doch Anwender klagen nach wie vor über Probleme
bei der Einwahl und niedrige Datenübertragungsraten.

THE STORY ABOUT clickBOOM
by Djordje Djurdjevic
ex-member of the clickBOOM team
The story about clickBOOM for me began in the spring 1994. when
an announce appeared on a local BBS here in Belgrade requesting some
coders, computer graphic and music artists who work on Amiga and/or PC.
The goal was to make a team that would make a game that would be sold in
the foreign countries (meaning thereby "western" countries such as UK,
Germany, USA...). I didn't know much about assembler programming which
had a priority over C, but I left a note that I was interested. No, I
was not contacted. However, almost all "serious" Amiga users know more
or less each other here in Belgrade so I heard later that some of my
friends are working with the team that is making that game. A fighting
game. I was shown some previews and was interested to meet people who
were making it. About a year later, middle of July 1995, that actually
happened : my friend who showed me the previews introduced me to the
clickBOOM team. They were working in Aleksandar's apartment in the
street "Olge Alkalaj 7/114" in Belgrade. Aleksandar is Alexander's
serbian name, but I guess he had to change it a little bit to sound like
an english name because serbs weren't (aren't ?) very liked in the
western countries (actually as I've been told, his real name is Aljosa
but I can't confirm this). So, I met Vladimir Ignjatovic, the coder of
Capital Punishment (Amiga version), Dragan Jakovljevic and Dusan
Gojovic, two graphic artists who were making the graphics and the
animations for the game. They were all working on Amiga 1200 powered
with memory cards or 030 accelerator cards. They seemed to be very
pleased and proud with the work they were doing (and who wouldn't be ?).
Me too, I was pleased to watch them working (and to watch 030
working - at that time it was like showing me a space shuttle) and was
quite surprised hearing that their salary is between 150 and 350 DM
(german marks - the most popular foreign currency here). Here, I have
to tell you that during the crisis period (between 1992 and 1994) my
parent's salary was about 10 DM (yes, ten german marks). So, you can
imagine how wide my eyes and ears were open when I heard that - at that
time (1995), my parent's salary was about 200 DM. They told me, a few
months later, when I became a member of the team, that they had a deal
with Aleksandar about the money : they'll get the "real" money after
the game is published (if successful) but until then, he'll finance the
project by giving them the money for food and other everyday's needs.
So, twice or three times a week he gave them the money they needed.
Very quickly he realized that they were speding much more than he
thought they would, so he decided to give them some kind of salary
instead, once a month, for their own needs. Later, the same day, I met
Aleksandar Petrovic himself. He looked like a nice, normal person. We
had a little chat, about the fighting game they were making (that became
Capital Punishment), and then he asked me if I know something about C.
He was interested to "give" me a job. I was interested too, can you
imagine ! So, he asked my friend who introduced me to them all to show
me what he was doing these days on his PC. He was making some kind of a
management game, where the player is the director of a luxury beach
hotel... Nothing special but it looked very nice and was 640x512x256.
Well, could I do that ? I told him that I never worked with AGA until
then but I could try (yeah, well I had two compilers at that time :
Aztec C 5.0d and Maxon C/C++ 3.0). I'll explain about this later, but
until that time I was mainly working with Aztec because the Maxon C I
had was half english half german and so was very difficult to use for
somebody who doesn't speak a word of german. So Aleksandar and I had a
little deal : I'll try to do something, to make a demo of something
similar I saw on the PC that day. Well, my position was not brilliant.
On one hand I wanted to work with the team, because I always wanted to
work on a game making. Ok, well, there was also that "money" reason and
I could expect to get a memory card from the team for my work (I had an
unexpanded A1200 with 80 Mb 2"5 HDD). Well, ok, there was not much
choice. So the next three days I was trying to make a demo. That was
not very easy since I had no documentation about OS3.0 (it was
impossible to find any of them here since we didn't have Internet
providers at that time, and the software comming from foreign countries
was mainly the games). However, after those three days, I sent him my
work and after seeing it Aleksandar told that it looked encouraging and
that he wanted me to try making an Amiga version of the game. I got a
memory expansion card with 4 Mb and the source code from the PC version.
Well, that's how my clickBOOM work began.
Mainly, I was working at home, on my computer - the apartment
they were working in was not very big. They were sending me new
graphics via modem and once or twice a week I went to the "HQ" (the
apartment mentioned above) to show the results. Several times I spent
the whole night there, working or updating something right there.
Aleksandar was telling us some interesting stories about borrowing a
huge amount of money from canadian ministry of culture and education if
we could make a demo of an excellent educational software. Well, we all
expected money, that's for sure. I didn't want to talk much about the
money with him because I didn't know him well and I was fearing that he
could easily tell me that he doesn't need anymore my services. But the
other members, who I made a friendship with meanwhile, were telling me
about the money he was giving them as a salary and also that he said
there'll be a special bonus in money if the game succeedes. And they
were all "living" for that. Well, so was I, but as the game I was
working on was not something as good as Capital Punishment, I knew that
I should expect less money.
In september 1995. the team got a new member, Vitomir
Jevremovic who was working on the PC version of Capital Punishment. In
the beginning of october 1995., Aleksandar left Yugoslavia and returned
to Toronto where he lives. Until then, I didn't know that he has a
canadian citizenship. After that, I continued to work on the management
game with the work name "Beach" but more slowly, because Aleksandar
wanted the others to concentrate on Capital Punishment. So, I didn't
hear from him for quite some time. Capital Punishment wasn't
progressing very quickly because nobody actually knew what it should
look like. Aleksandar wanted one thing, the graphic artists something
else and the coder did something between those two. As far as I know,
the coder, Vladimir, had the most difficult job. He was doing it all in
assembler, applying every single trick he knew to make the game work.
Therefore, it didn't work on all accelerator cards and because of that,
several bugs remained until the last moment.
I got my account on a server at my school but only email could
work (via Greece - remember, at that time Yugoslavia was still under the
UN sanctions) but I could write to Aleksandar and hear from him. I
tried to inform him about the progress of my work, to give him some
ideas, suggestions, etc... well - everything that I considered to be my
duty. He didn't pay much attention to my ideas and I didn't like it
very much but I couldn't do anything against that because I wasn't a
team member at that time yet. On the other hand, we were making that
game together : he put the money in it, I put the knowledge - so we
should have discussed about every single detail. But... I realized
that the members of the team also avoided to give him any suggestions.
Well.. What could I do ? He is older and more experienced than I am in
the "business world", so he knows what's the best. Doesn't he ?
I got my first money from Aleksandar Petrovic for the New Year
1996. - 150 DM. Ok. I couldn't complain. He gave me a memory card
(which wasn't in use in the team, by the way) and I didn't work every
day. Yet, I realized that I wouldn't get more any sooner because our
"Beach" project was unofficialy cancelled. But, however, Aleksandar
informed me that I became an official team member.
Ok, I kept in touch with everybody in the team and I continued
to report to Aleksandar about several updates I was doing for the
"Beach". In april 1996. I asked him if I could get a 030 card because
the memory card I had was not enough and I needed much time to compile
anything. I got MTEC030 with 8 Mb RAM. But... didn't modify a single
line of "Beach" code since then O:)
Aleksandar came again in Yugoslavia in June 1996. to
"accelerate" the finalization of Capital Punishment and - I guess - to
do some of his own business here. He brought with him some hardware but
there were only 030 boards. He didn't look very enthusiastic seeing me
(should I say us ?) but I thought it might be because of the trip or
some of his own problems. Anyway, Capital Punishment was almost over,
and I didn't do a single thing about it. So, I proposed him my idea
about making a special installer for the game, with graphics, nice GUI,
etc.. He liked the idea and so I started with that job. In several
ocasions I showed him my progress, but he was not pleased with the
results - seeing a requester "PLEASE INSERT VOLUME GAMES: IN ANY DRIVE"
he considered it is not a good idea to let me do the installer part. He
wouldn't listen when I tried to explain him that this "GAMES:" was just
for test purpose, nothing more. The only thing he had in mind was that
the installer mustn't fail to install the game because it is one of the
worst things that could happen. And I couldn't guarantee that the
installer I would write wouldn't fail in some particular case. Ok, he
is the boss. So, the ugly Commodore's system installer had to be used.
Again, without any docs or examples how it works.. So, my job was to
look for every piece of software that uses the system installer and to
find out how to write an installer for the game. During July 1996., the
last backgrounds for the game have been created, the last character
made, only the game code was a pain-giver. Aleksandar asked me, for the
first and the last time about how to use the money. At first, Capital
Punishment wasn't intended to be published by our team, clickBOOM, but
to be published by some other bigger company. So, he asked me what to
do : as he told us, he had an offer from Ocean, but he was thinking
much about publishing the game by ourselves. Yeah, well, I couldn't
help much about that because the market is something I just don't
understand and my opinion was worthless. So, I said that the second
solution can bring more money but is also more risky. Who said "He who
dares - wins !" ? So he made a decision himself : PXL Computers should
publish the game. What is PXL Computers ? Well, he didn't want to tell
me, but the other members of the team explained me that PXL Computers is
a company that is behind Aleksandar and that we are, actually, all
working for PXL. Well, ok. Why, not - "our" company should publish our
game, right ? During that same July, I found out that the other members
of clickBOOM actually don't have a great opinion about Aleksandar, and,
should I say, don't actually like him. I assisted to a few quarrels
between Aleksandar and the Amiga coder who couldn't work for some time
for some reasons. The other members also told me that they also had
several fights with him. The only thing that was important to
Aleksandar was finishing the game before the deadline. He didn't give a
... about anything else. If he couldn't bribe with the money, then he
could threaten. And so he did. There is a law here that allows regular
students to delay their military service as long as they are regular
students. And Vladimir, the Amiga coder, was in that position. He left
the school to be able to work on the game and was no more a regular
student. Aleksandar arranged, using his contacts here, to delay his
military service for some time, but was threatening Vladimir with that.
Especially during the civil war here, many young men left the country
just to avoid the military service. As I have been told, Aleksandar is
one of them. Dragan, one of the graphic artist was not in a better
position. He is from a small town in the south of Serbia and didn't
want to go back because he couldn't do anything there, at home, but
waste his time. And the only chance for him to stay in Belgrade was
clickBOOM. And yet, he had to spend most of the money he got each month
which left him on a "positive financial zero" after all. So he had to
keep his mouth shut as much as possible.
In the beginning of September 1996. Aleksandar returned to
Canada without Capital Punishment neither for Amiga neither for PC. The
release date of Amiga version was about the end of September if I
remember well, but it had to be delayed : the code still made problems.
PC version was delayed because Aleksandar wanted it to have much more
features than the Amiga version, such as platforms, multiscrol, etc...
And he also gave us a psychical problem : he gave to one of his mates,
Vojislav Samsalovic, the job of work supervisor. My job, as I said
before, was to make the installer work. And so I did. I had much
troubles with that, but finally I made it work. However there were
other problems around. The first, but minor, problem was that, for some
strange reason, Aleksandar couldn't find anyone who speaks german to
translate the installer text. I proposed him to make a french text
also, because I speak french and it would be easy for me. He refused it
- which surprised me A LOT : isn't the french used in Canada as well as
english ? Well, that was the minor problem. The major was much more
delicate. The game was supposed to be shipped on floppy disks and
packed with an archiver. We had a choice between LZX and LHA.
Aleksandar decided that it should be the LHA with multivolume options.
Ok, that's cool for me. I told him to contact the author of the LHA
archiver and to register a copy for clickBOOM (I'll get to this "legal"
part later). As I didn't know if we'll get the "whole" program (which
does both pack and unpack and requires a key file) or just some
extracting tool registered to us, I guessed that we would get that
extracting tool (such as lx) so I REM-med the line (by placing ; ) in
the installer script that copies the lha.key file to the L: directory
where it is required by Lha 1.50r, the archiver we used here for test
usage. We sent him the "final" version of Capital Punishment via
internet as many previews of it before. The problem is that I was not
present the evening the other members were sending it. I just told them
to remind Aleksandar that "when he gets the registered copy of the
archiver tool" removes or leaves the REM mark in the installer script
according to what sort of executable he gets from the author of lha.
Guess what : Aleksandar didn't register lha (he said he couldn't
contact the author), he left this "pseudo-registered" version and left
the key. The key a pirated one and is registered to "mika", and that
was one of the most common lha key files here in Serbia (I'll get to
this "legal" part later, as I said). I couldn't believe when I heard
it. And yet it was true. And guess what : either they didn't remind
him, either he forgot what they told him... Anyway, the installer
script DIDN'T copy the lha.key required by that lha1.50r and Aleksandar
Petrovic DIDN'T test it one last time before making master copies. But
he tried one of the 5000 master copies after that. And found out that
the installer actually fails. That's why he had to print a separate
sticker reminding the user to copy the key himself to L: directory in
order to make the installer work. The other problem the users stepped
onto was the space required on HDD to insall the game. The game is
about 15 Mb but this multivolume lha requires all the files from the
archive to be in the same directory before unpacking (or there is a
switch against that but I don't know which). So, all the disks had to
be copied to the directory first. That makes some 5 Mb more. It seems
that this lack of capacity caused a problem to many users.. I wonder
who is that genius leaving his partition with less than 10 MB of free
space in 1996. ? Anyway... that was not the reason for which many
copies of Capital Punishment were sent back. The main reason was that
the game was incompatible with some accelerator cards and with 040/060
CPUs. Aleksandar sent an Apollo 040 and Blizzard 060 cards here, but
didn't want to wait a few more days before releasing the game. Just 3
days after getting the 040 card, Vladimir found out where the bug was
(something about the CPU caches) and corrected it. So, a patch had to
be made, sent to Aleksandar and placed on the official clickBOOM web
page.
Funny, the game was supposed to be the best in 1996 according to
the Amiga magazines. Maybe it wouldn't be rated that high if
Aleksandar, according to what he said, didn't go from one magazine
director to another and didn't >persuade< (who mentioned Syndicate ?)
them that Capital Punishment is a better fighting game than any other on
Amiga. I don't know if he paid them to give such high grades to Capital
Punishment. But I remember well how proud he was when he was telling us
that he spent much more for advertizing the game that we could even
imagine.
Oh, well... I didn't hear from him for quite some time after
Capital Punishment was released, but at the end of November, Dragan told
me that Aleksandar had some plans with me about porting a great game to
Amiga. I was very interested but Aleksandar told me more about it only
in January 1997. That game was Myst. Yes, that nice looking, stupid
adventure. I saw it once on PC and was not much stunned. However, when
he told me that it's one of the best selling games on PC and MAC I
changed my mind - it's a great game, then :)
Then in the beginning of February 1997. I went several times to
the team HQ in Olge Alkalaj street to see the game more closely.
Vojislav Samsalovic, Aleksandar's substitute (mentioned before) brought
with him the PC version of Myst and we were "playing" it using a
walkthrough so that I could see it entirely. Somehow, we didn't manage
to do so, because the PC version graphics were poorly converted, so we
couldn't find an entrance. Well, it didn't seem, however, to be much
difficult to convert. Then I wrote an email to Aleksandar telling him
that it didn't look difficult and that I thought it could be converted
in 3 months once I get the source files which were supposed to be in C.
I didn't mention the money. But he did when he answered the email in
question. He told me that he was pleased I accepted to do it and that I
should go every day (starting in March 1997.) to the HQ to work on it.
He would pay me 400 DM per month. Well, ok. At that time, everyone in
the team was payed 400 DM. But I thought that after Capital Punishment
was published we could all expect more money. So I told him that.
Aleksandar's answer was not as kind as the previous one. He told me
that he couldn't pay me more and if I didn't want to accept these terms,
I should tell him that at once so that he could search for somebody who
would accept. So, I accepted it asking him if I could expect more money
on some of our next projects. The answer was positive. But until then,
400 DM per month + a bonus when the game is published is the only thing
he could do for me.
Ok, I had to live with that, after all, 400 DM is a lot of money
for us, here. He sent me some backgrounds and some quicktime animations
so that I could try to begin the work before I get anything from the
authors of Myst. As there was no good Quicktime player for Amiga, I
tried to convert the frames to IFF and then to some semi-raw format
which could allow even a slower Amiga to run the animation smoothly.
The goal was to make A1200 with 4Mb memory expansion only and a CD ROM
run the game. After some tests, trying to minimize the memory
requiremetns I was satisfied with the results. But however, the sound
was missing and the animation file was much larger than the original QT.
When I sarted to work everyday he told me that he needed a simple
preview very quickly. He sent me one of the "description" files which
describes the mouse zones on every location in the game telling me to
make a preview in which the player could move around the first few
locations. He needed it to show to the authors of Myst. Well, probably
he was convincing them that the Amiga could run such a game and he
needed something to prove that. As we were missing some of the
equipment in our HQ, we had to transport my Amiga there.
At that time I didn't know why we were missing the equipment.
When Vojislav Samsalovic was not present in the apartment, Dragan and
Dusan told me what happened some time before. Aleksandar told there
would be a bonus a few months after the release of Capital Punnishment.
They all expected the money in February. During all that time, from
october when Capital Punishment was released, they were working on
Capital Punishment CD32 edition which had one more level and one more
character. Finally, Vladimir, Amiga coder, after finishing his part of
job (ie. the new level), decided to stop working until the bonus is
payed. He took the A1200 he was working on with a monitor, hard disk
and Apollo 040 accelerator card home and he didn't want to give it back.
After several fights with Vojislav Samsalovic and emails exchanged with
Aleksandar, he decided to quit the team. But he was not the first
person to quit the team ! One other friend of mine, Ilija Melentijevic,
a graphic artist, had quit the team long before that because he couldn't
get on with Aleksandar. Ilija was one of the first members of the team
: he, Vladimir and Dusan Gojovic. Dragan Jakovljevic came later. My
friend, who introduced me to the whole team also stopped working.
Well, I was not glad to hear that but was however expecting to
have better luck than the others, because Myst was one of the best
selling... wasn't it ? Anyway, within three days I finished the
required demo. Basically, any other location in the game should have
worked the same way. I remember that I had to INSIST that I need my
Amiga at home since I didn't want to leave it there. Vitomir
Jevremovic, the PC coder, for example, brought his own PC to the HQ
since we didn't have any there. That same PC was used to play Myst. We
only had two Amiga 1200 with 030 accelerator cards which the graphic
artists were using.
I asked Aleksandar to buy Storm C since I was using a pirated
version of it. He sent me an email full of greetings telling me that it
costs 500$ (if I remember well). I told him that we intend to make
money with this game and therefore it is our duty to have the legal
version of the compiler. Ok, we couldn't afford to legalize any of the
software we were using to make Capital Punishment, but after publishing
CP we could at least buy the compiler. Yeah, well, he agreed with me.
And about a week later, with the copies of Myst developping CDs we also
got Storm C 1.0 the beginner version. I don't know if it is the
cheapest one, but it was older than the pirated version I had, and with
less options. So I gave up and continued using my version of the
compiler.
Myst developping CDs were MAC CDs. So we used Vitomir's PC to
get what we needed from them. And guess what : the code was not in C
but in some kind of visual language called Hypercard. Great ! It
didn't help me a lot. So, my way of developping the game was to watch
the PC version and to make it look the same on Amiga. I also had
problems with the location description files and I asked Aleksandar if
the authors of Myst could help me with that. No, they couldn't. "We'll
have to deal with it ourselves" answered Aleksandar. Well, that was not
true - I had to deal with it myself. I asked him several times about
several things in the game. Sometimes he quoted the answer of a Cyan
employee (Cyan made Myst for MAC and PC), sometimes he just told me they
couldn't help. So, you want to build an airplane with limited weight
capacity and nobody can tell you how many passenger seats there will be.
So, during march and april I was trying to make some kind of
universal engine that could be used for every location. And each time
when I thought I did it right, I realized that I had to start it almost
from the beginning because there are several special locations that my
engine couldn't handle. After four unsuccessful tries, I decided to
make the game work with every location having its own part of code and
at the end, when the game is finished, to make an optimal engine. About
the end of May 1997. the code was handling more or less two islands in
the game : the Main Island and the Stoneship Island.
As I didn't deal with the animations and the sound, somebody
else had to do it. I told to Aleksandar that he could contact the
author of one QT player for Amiga, Marcus Comstedt and that he could
maybe do it. Marcus accepted and was working on it. He gave me the API
and a demo version to see how it should work. It was ok.
Aleksandar came up with the idea of supporting graphic cards for
the Amiga. Well, since my code was fully system friendly, he told me I
had nothing to worry about. However, after some time, he told me that
he tried an advanced demo on a system with CGX compatible graphic card
and the demo didn't work. I couldn't understand why.
The greatest problem was however converting the tons of
background pictures. First, we were doing it on Vitomir's PC, using
some utility to read from MAC CDs and then Photoshop to convert those
ture color pictures to 253 indexed. Then, the result was converted in
Personal Paint. Why 253 colors ? Well, the Amiga mouse pointer needs
some three colors (17, 18 and 19). So, we also had to remap the
pictures. Finally, the finished picture was placed into MYST:GFX/...
dir and ready to be used. The most amazing thing about the clickBOOM
team was that I also had to do it even if graphics were not my part of
the job. Then we heard that Shape Shifter, a MAC emulator for Amgia,
can use a CD-ROM and read MAC CDs. So we made it work and we skipped
the PC part in the procedure : the background was converted in
Photoshop for MAC (with it's stupid requesters and very "intuitive"
operating system, huh) and directly read on Amiga using
I_don't_know_which_device to read the MAC partition. It wasn't any
faster. We couldn't read directly MAC's pictures which were in PIC
format because we had no datatype that could handle it well. Even
ImageFX couldn't recognize the format. So a solution came up : PC's
"alchemy". We had to copy all the background pictures from MAC CDs onto
an Amiga partition, then rename those long filenames to fit MS-DOS
format (8+3), then copy those files to a PC HDD, then to plug that HDD
into a PC, tell alchemy to convert all those files to IFF pictures with
253 color entries. Then plug that HDD back to Amiga, set the pointer
colors (swap them with the last three entries which were empty), plug
the HDD back in the PC, remap the pictures, back in the Amiga, rename
back those files and.. ufff that was it. And again, I did most of that
job : I wrote two little utilities to rename the files and store the
original names and to set the pointer colors. Ok, it's a piece of cake.
But I had to copy all those files, I had to move the HDD from one
computer to another and I couldn't do my work. That lasted about a week
and a half.
Still the end of May 1997. The bonus form Capital Punishment
was still some kind of a ghost from the past, and Aleksandar didn't even
think about mentioning anything about it. Dusan Gojovic, one of the
graphic artists, wanted to start some private business and needed some
money. So he sent an email to Aleksandar asking him what was going on,
when would he be able to get his part of the bonus and how much would it
be.
Aleksandar replied only a week after that. He sent an email to
all of the members of clickBOOM, not only to Dusan. He was explaining
us the situation. Capital Punishment didn't make it as well as he
expected because it couldn't be sold in England. He told that there was
some kind of "internal publishing companies" magazine in England in
which clickBOOM was described as a team whose products are full of bugs
and that we are possibly involved in some illegal actions, and that's
why Capital Punishment couldn't be sold in England. He also said that
the he had to sell some parts of HIS (!!!) company PXL Computers (for
the first time he told us that PXL was his own company) and that he is
no longer the only one in charge : from then, there was also a canadian
lawer, Mr. Spiegel (or something like that). When he started the whole
thing, he took a credit from a canadian bank and he intended to pay it
back with Capital Punishment. As the game didn't make success he had to
find a partner. So, here came that lawyer. The lawyer himself was not
interested in the company itself but wanted 20% of the profit. So,
without consulting us, Aleksandar, in some way, sold our team. Dragan
told me then that, according to a verbal agreement (I was not present
then), if for some reason, the team had to split up, the name
"clickBOOM" should remain ours (ours = the members of the team who
worked here in Belgrade) because we were not signed in any game. And
why weren't we signed ? Well.. we are from Serbia, which means
butchers to the western people... at lest, that was what Aleksandar
said. So, if you have ever wandered why there's nothing about the
people who made Capital Punishment or Myst in the game itself, here you
have the answer. Anyway, in that email, Aleksandar told us that we can
continue working in the team if we want under the same conditions, but
if we decide to quit, he would understand and would not be mad. He also
dismissed the music artist, Nikola Tomic, who was "not very productive".
Well, that is somehow true, but Nikola finished all he had to do. Let's
say that he was useless to Aleksandar. Maybe you gave heard about
Nikola Tomic - DJ.Nick. He won Amiga Format's prize (if I remember
well) for his music works in november 1998.
That was the beginning of the end. A few weeks after that,
middle of June 1997., Vojislav Samsalovic said that Aleksandar told him
to send Dusan Gojovic to an unpayed "holiday of undetermined length"
which means Aleksandar couldn't pay him and wouldn't be needing his
services for some time - Dragan could do perfectly well all that
remained, and Dragan could not be dismissed because he lived in that
apartment (if you remember what I previously said, Dragan is from the
province). Dusan was smart enough to ask to Vojislav if he could take
one of the Amigas we had up there to finish some of his works. Vojislav
let him take it : A1200 with a monitor and 030 accelerator board.
So, the clickBOOM team was then formed of Dragan Jakovljevic
(GFX), Vitomir Jevremovic (PC coder) and me (Amiga coder). Vitomir took
all his equipment home at the end of June, and continued the work from
there.
At that time, my part of the job was going on as planned :
about 50% of the game completed. Of course, first I planned to finish
it then, not to be at it's half, but who could expect to get Hypercard
instead of a C code, not to get any help from the authors of Myst and to
spend as much time to convert graphics as to make the game work.
Then came the hot month of July 1997. And A4000 with
CybergraphX compatible card Cybervision64/3D from Aleksandar. That was
"my" computer, on which I was working then. But not at once. First,
its power supply was 110 V (and in Yugoslavia we use 220 V, 50 Hz).
Then, for some reason, it wouldn't work. Obviously, it was damaged
during the transport - it's keyboard had some broken keys. DHL didn't
do their job very well. Ok, about the middle of July, we made it work
somehow. Then after several tests, I found out why the CybergrapX mode
fails to run : GCX doesn't support the AllocScreenBuffer() system
routine. Great ! How to make a double buffer then ?! And how to use
CybergraphX library functions ? All the #pragma were written for SAS C
not Storm C, and I didn't have a tool such as FD2PRAGMA to convert what
I needed. Marcus helped me out sending me a #pragma for
AllocateBestScreenMode() or something like that.
So, in order to make CGX mode run I made a complete mess of the
game code. But it could run (even if I asked myself, sometimes, how was
that possible). Then there was a problem with the pointer colors,
probably due to a bug in the CGX system : the pointer's third color was
XOR-ed (or something like that). Ok, I managed to hide that effect as
much as possible.
Still, I had the biggest problem : the QT player subsystem.
Marcus sent me his object files and includes and, at first, it worked
well. Then sometimes it worked, sometimes it just freezed the system,
and sometimes slowed it down as if there was a dead loop running in the
background. Whose mistake was that : Marcus' or mine ? Aleksandar
considered that I did something wrong so he made me send Marcus some of
my source codes so that Marcus could see what's wrong.
I couldn't find out why and when the QT subsystem refused to
work. I spent days and days making a hundreds of tests to see how it
behaves in some particular situations. I couldn't help Marcus much
either, because Enforcer wouldn't work (my 040 was EC040 without MMU)
and Mungwall didn't report anything.
Somewhere In Time, between July and August 1997.(if I remember
well) Aleksandar sent us an email telling us to try out the Amiga Quake
port by a peruvian coder. He was very amazed with it telling to Vitomir
and me how a great coder that guy is compared to us. Well, ok, I am not
pretending to be the best coder ever. So his words didn't make me feel
unconfortable. We have a proverb here in Serbia which tells
(translated) : "how much money, that much music". If he considered
that there are better coders than ourselves, why didn't he try to pay
them 400 DM per month and get the same results as if they were paid 2000
DM ?
August 1997. came. Vojislav wanted Dusan to give back the
Amiga he took but Dusan refused. So he came to the HQ and we all had a
long talk about all the things that were going wrong in the team for
some time. Well, for the first time, I was accused that day that I am
responsible for all this mess we are having with Myst conversion. That
day I found out what it is being accused by someone who doesn't have a
clue about programming. I could understand how Vladimir felt when he
was fighting with Aleksandar. That day we decided to prevent Aleksandar
from fooling us all. But we didn't want to act immediately, and so we
decided to wait for some time to see Aleksandar's reaction (Vojislav
would certainly tell him about our little "chat").
Several days before that "caht", Aleksandar was telling me to
prepare a demo of Myst with one island only that would go with the
september issue of CU Amiga on a CD. As I had very little time, when I
got back home, after my work, I wrote down a short message about our
unfortunate team and translated it into french and english. Well, I
intended to do the same thing on the final version, but with much more
details and after taking enough time to compose it well. Then I made a
simple tool to crypt the messages and linked them to a picture used in
the game. That file is "Vault controlpanel (button)". I sent it with
some other pictures to Aleksandar as well as the demo. However, the
demo didn't come out on the disk. But the crypted file remained there !
September 1997. came. I noticed earlier that any private
messge (not concerning the development of the game but our position in
the team, for example) sent to Aleksandar was ignored. Oh, well, he
could simply tell that he didn't receive any mail and nobody could call
him a liar. So, I decided to mix the work and the pleasure and, 3rd
september. if I remember well, in one same email, where I sent him some
very important things about Myst, I told him that the completion of Myst
for Amiga is close and that I thing that we should discuss a little bit
about the bonus we mentioned when I began to work on Myst. I asked him
if it is going to be a percentage or a fixed value and asked him to tell
me how much copies of the game he expect to sell and how much money that
would be for me.
And guess what : he replied to everything in that email that
was about Myst, but nothing about what I asked him. So, I sent him a
new email informing him that I won't play that game anymore. If he
wants me to continue the work, he should give me 800 DM as salary, 1000
DM when I finish the game and a bonus ( minus 1000 DM) a few months
after. If he wants me to quit the team, then he should give me 1000 DM
for the code and 500 more if he wants me to explain him how it works. I
left him a choice to propose something else. It was a thursday night,
4, september, about 21:30 (9:30 PM), I still remember it. My position
was delicate. I didn't want to be fooled by Aleksandar on one hand, and
on the other I was acting in the direction of breaking up the team
finally, which would be bad for Dragan.
Well, one can imagine how hard quarrels I had with Vojislav
during next days, especially the next day, friday. Then Aleksandar came
up with some idea of making contracts with us. Funny, Dragan told me
that, when he joined the team and asked Aleksandar about making
contracts, Aleksandar told him that there's no stronger guarantee than
his own word. However, I refused to sign it. It was, I think, a fair
contract, but comming from him, in english, with the date about 6 months
ago for me and two years ago for Dragan, and (a cherry on top) it is
"governed by the laws of Province of Ontario". Could you imagine me
travelling some 4000 km just to make a complaint if I considered that he
was doing something against the terms in the contract ?
Anyway, the last evening of the existance of the clickBOOM team,
we had an interactive chat with him via internet. He was trying to
persuade me and Dragan to sign a contract. Well, obviously, he needed
something to protect himself against us. I explained him that I didn't
leave the team the day he ignored my question about the bonus just
because of two things : first, Myst was about 70% over and could be
easily finished (QT still made problems) and second, if I did that,
erasing my whole work, he would be in a very bad financial position.
So, money and his own position on this world were the two things that
made me stay. I explained him that what I wrote in the alarming email
(asking him money) was just an example of what I could do if I wanted
to, and that he should take that very serious. I asked him to tell me
how he intends to pay out a bonus and he constantly claimed that he
doesn't know a thing about how much copies would be sold, how much money
earned, etc..
You know, frankly speaking, I guess he was honest, and he really
didn't know that. But after what he did with the other members of
clickBOOM (who made Capital Punishment for Amiga) I decided not to trust
him anything. In my opinion, when he realized that Capital Punishment
was a disaster, he could openly tell us all what is the situation, tell
us that he could only pay 1 DM each one of us, not as a bonus (since
there was no bonus) but as some kind of reward for the job, buy us a
lunch at McDonald's and tell that we could try it again with another
game if we wanted to or split up the team. I don't know what was his
position, but if it was as I see it now, I would do what I wrote a few
lines above, if I were him. Instead of that, he kept silent, made me
start Myst and get involved with all that stuff. The other part I was
doubting of is the existance of Mr. Spiegel, because Mr. Spiegel could
easily be Aleksandar himself thanks to what he would put 20% in his
pockets without our knowledge.
Anyway, I did not accept to sign that contract, neither did
Dragan. Tomorrow, when Vojislav came, he told me to prepare all my work
to be sent to Aleksandar (to Canada) and that somebody else will finish
Myst.
I had two choices : erase completely my whole work or do what
he said. The first one was not "that" bad because I made regular
backups and brought them home, but I didn't have some last backups at
home. The second was intriguing. I didn't know if the guy who would
continue the work would accept my scheme or create something else. I
didn't even know if the text I had hidden in a picture was still there.
But somehow, if the guy really continued my work and if the text was
still there, then I'd have something strong against Aleksandar in my
hands that could expose all the truth to the public. As I said before,
I planned to put a bigger story about us with more details, in the final
version of Myst. But, all that happened surprized me a lot and I didn't
do it.
So, guess what is the choice I made.
The second, of course. So, before taking that HDD to somebody
who would make a CD copy of it, Vojislav told me that clickBOOM doesn't
need anymore my services and that he would contact me if somehow the
team needed me again. That day was 25. September 1997. The clickBOOM
team was split up, because Dragan himself couldn't do anything more.
So, in some way, the clickBOOM team ceased to exist that day.
The same day, when I got back home, I showed the contract to my
sister who is a lawyer, and she told me that as far as she knows, the
contract can't be retroactive (as were those that Aleksandar sent us)
and it's therefore illegal. She told me also several things. For
example, if Aleksandar lost all his money, in Canada he could live quite
well with the money he would get from the social assistance, and he
would in addition of that, get money for renting his apartment here in
Belgrade. So, probably, he didn't declare to Canadian laws that he owns
an apartment here when he was immigrating to Canada.
Aleksandar allowed Dragan to stay in the apartment for some time
and Dragan asked him to tell in advance, at least two weeks, when he had
to leave. After a month or so, Aleksandar almost threw him out, telling
him in an email that he had to leave within three days.
In February 1998. one of my friends showed me that he had a
copy of Myst for Amiga. I was curious to find out if the texts I've
written were still there. And they were ! Aleksandar just renamed the
file into "Vault ControlPanel (buttn).pic", but didn't alter it. I
guess that the guy who finished Myst is Marcus, since he wrote the QT
player and Aleksandar had established a good contact with him.
So, I sent an email to Aleksandar telling him that Myst is an
adventure and mystery, much bigger than the game itself. I explained
him that I still expect him to pay me the 1000 DM I asked him 9 months
ago for my code. He didn't answer.
I decided to wait for a while. He published Quake, and began
Napalm. When I heard that some Polish guys, not older that the former
members of clickBOOM, were doing Napalm I decided to reveal my little
secret to prevent those "young fools" to be fooled as the "young fools"
here were. So I sent a similar email to this one to Vulcan, Amiga.org,
... (mentionned in the introduction of the email which this text came
with). There was no particular reaction.
So, I decided to let it go as it happened more than a year ago
and my feelings about that weren't very strong anymore. But when I
found his nice "speech" in the NEWT interview, talking about computer
piracy, I really got pissed off, and decided to do whatever I can to
make the Amiga community (and not only the Amiga comminity) who formed
clickBOOM, who is Aleksandar Petrovic and what sort of illegal jobs is
he involved into.
So, here is, at last, the part about the legal stuff, that I
mentionned several times through this email. First, I think I should
explain that computer piracy isn't actually forbidden here in my
country. Therefore, in the computer magazines, one can find all sorts
of adverts, mainly for PCs and Sony Playstation or Nintendo about all
new software, games, etc... The price for a PC game or multimedia
encyclopedies on a commercial (factory made) CD is about 5 DM, while
it's about 6 DM on a writable CD-ROM. Utilities are a little bit more
expensive. Playstation's disks cost about 8 DM. But you can hire a
Playstation for 24 hours with 10 disks of your choice for 10 DM. Or you
can pay 2 DM per hour in gaming centers to play Quake II, Starcraft or
similar network games with friends. Needless to say, only the hardware
has been paid the full price. It used to be the same with the Amiga 5
or 6 years before : in the computer newspapers you could find a dozen
of A4 pages full of all sorts of adverts only for the Amiga. Why isn't
it forbidden ? Well, all the government institutions use the same
pirated software as the other users here. The army too. There are only
a few companies here that have legal copies of their software. But
computer software isn't the only thing pirated here. Music CDs can be
found for 5 DM or less. Music CDs can be rented even if every disk has
on it the warning that forbids hiring. The same is with
video-cassettes. I watched several times movies in which this kind of
text appeared from time to time : "THIS IS ONLY A PROMOTIONAL COPY OF
... IF YOU HIRED IT PLEASE CONTACT 99-xx-xx-NOCOPY".
Is it good or bad ? Well, I'll only treat the computer
software. I think it's bad. As I am a programmer, I guess I'm one of
the people who know the best how it can be difficult to write a program
sometimes. But do I have pirated software on my computer ? Yes, I do.
It's sad, but true : I either have pirated copies either pd/sw
utilities.
I have just a few choices about that :
- spend 1/10 of my parents' salary to order an original game from UK
or Germany (since there are no shops where you can buy original software
here)
- not use any pirated software, which means not use my computer at all
- behave like everyone else here and use all the software I can
Well, because of financial reasons, I picked the last one, but I try not
to use any software that I don't need the most.
However, the Amiga market is not endangered here because less
than 500 users here still have an Amiga that can run new software. That
represents less than a percent of the computer users population.
Well, now, having told you this, I can continue with my
clickBOOM story. When it was all over, we (the members of clickBOOM)
realized that Aleksandar had a fine tactic : invest as small amount of
money as possible by paying the game markers much less than he would
have to do in Canada for example, and by using illegal copies of the
software he would have to pay in Canada, and, on the other hand,
investing a huge amount of money in the adverts about the new game and
clickBOOM itself. Ok, Capital Punishment didn't make it, but clickBOOM
is now a name - built upon the work of the persons who Aleksandar
cheated on and built upon the pirated software. The same software
piracy that Aleksandar criticized in the NEWT interview.
What is my point here ? Aleksandar ISN'T an Amiga fan. Ok, I
can't be sure of this, but all his behaviour and his acts showed it
quite well. He is (as everyone else) a money fan. So why is he making
games (I say "he" and not clickBOOM because clickBOOM doesn't exist for
more than a year) ? Well, the reason is simple : making an Amiga game
requires a lot less money investments than making a PC game for example.
Also, the Amiga market has not that much competition. Have no
illusions : Aleksandar will leave the Amiga as soon as he gets a chance
to make a successful PC game. So, if it is true that software piracy is
illegal in the western countries, maybe financial inspectors should have
a little talk with Mr. Petrovic ?
So, I am asking you to make public my emails so that the Amiga
community (and not only the Amiga community) gets informed about what's
going on. Of course, you might say: "well, yeah, even if what you told
us were true, clickBOOM is a company making software for Amiga and the
end of clickBOOM would not be good for Amiga". Well, I guess that all I
can say about that is that the choice is yours. You are right about
that, I wouldn't like to see my Amiga "die" but I don't want either to
see "clickBOOM this .. clickBOOM that .. Alexander Petrovic this...
Alexander Petrovic that.." on the internet when I know what's behind all
that. Once again, the choice is yours.
One last thing : how can you trust me about all this ? First,
if you have a copy of Capital Punishment, you can check out who is the
"lha.key" registered to. Then in the archive in which I put this text,
you can find an Amiga executable. It is called "zvrcka" and will allow
you to read the hidden texts on the Myst CD, Amiga version - the texts
will be saved on the RAM:. That text will tell you in very short terms,
more or less, the same thing I told you with all this more than 50 kb
long text. So it's purpose is to prove you that I am not lying about
all this.
kind regards,
Djordje Djurdjevic (ps)

Apple verschenkt altes MacOS
Macintosh-Anwender (oder Anwender von ShapeShifter und Fusion), die noch mit einem alten
Betriebssystem arbeiten, können sich jetzt die halbwegs moderne
Version 7.5.3
kostenlos vom Apple-Server laden. Dem fehlen zwar im Vergleich zum aktuellen MacOS 8.5
viele nützliche Komponenten, doch so essentielle wie etwa Open Transport
gehören zum Lieferumfang. Mit dem ebenfalls kostenlosen Update auf
System 7.5.5
kann man gleich anschließend einige Fehler ausbügeln. Einziger Wehrmutstropfen:
das System steht derzeit lediglich in der amerikanischen Fassung zum Download bereit.

RO_PixBtn.lha - RO mit Bildern auf den Buttons

Könnte vielleicht für die Allgemeinheit von Interesse sein. Ich habe dort

Was ist mit Siedler 2 von Titan?
Ich habe Titan Computer per eMail folgende Fragen gestellt:
Gibt es schon irgendeine Idee, wann Siedler 2 fertig wird?
Wird schon daran gearbeitet? Wann wird es die Siedler2-Webseite geben?
Hier die Antwort von Michael Garlich:
Zur Zeit müssen wir uns in Geduld fassen, BlueByte sieht sich, bedingt
durch den Streß den sie mit dem Vertrieb von Siedler 3 haben,
außerstande, uns mit den nötigen Daten zu versorgen und
unsere Fragen bezüglich einiger programmtechnischer Details zu
beantworten.
Die neuen Pages sind hoffentlich bald fertig, wir arbeiten zur Zeit
intensiv an mehreren Amigaprojekten, sodaß zum Updaten der Pages keine
Zeit war.

Foundation Update 21 (RTG Beta)
FoundationBeta21.lzx
Dieses Update enthält viele Neuerungen seit der letzten veröffentlichten Version.
Diese Version 21 ist eine RTG Beta-Version, also nur mit Grafikkarte spielbar.
FoundationAGA and FoundationRTG sind zusammengeschmolzen, bitte alle alten Files
löschen! AGA oder RTG Modi werden jetzt beim Start automatisch erkannt.
Alle (wirklich ALLE) Grafik-Rendering-Codes wurden neu geschrieben!
Alle Grafiken sind nun in "full chunky mode" gerendert, was das Spiel viel
schneller macht. FoundationPrefs wurden überarbeitet, sind nun sauberer
und einfacher in der Bedienung (Sie müssen die Prefs neu abspeichern!).
Das "Notlieferungen"-Feature wurde leicht überarbeitet.
Die Bedienungsfelder für Bauen und Lagern wurden überarbeitet.
Neue Rendering-Techniken wurden hinzugefügt (Transparenz, Belichtung etc.).
Foundation braucht nun mehr Speicher und mehr CPU-Power, aber es macht sich
bezahlt.
