Rudolph Riedel (E-Mail)


 File Manager: DiskMaster Version 2.5.23
Rudolph Riedel has released version 2.5.23 of his file manager and put it up for download (title link) on his homepage.

This time there's a version compiled with GCC as well as a version compiled for Amithlon. Owing to the Amithlon license Rudolph Riedel could not test the latter.

The most important changes in brief:

2.5.23 (2003-07-17) 74096 Bytes
  • New version numbering - the next full version will be 2.6.
  • Many little changes have been made to DM2, in order to make it compliable with GCC, VBCC and GCC for Amithlon -> portability.
  • IRQ Server has been replaced with timer.device code -> portability.
  • Mistake correcting.
Rudolph Riedel: "I allowed myself to issue a call for donations on the Internet. I would love to support the AmigaOS in the future, but my A1200 is really not suited for this anymore and I really don't have the spare cash for a better Amiga. I guess I have more motivation than credit..." (ps) (Translation: dm)

 Mac: Northland getting closer to release
The Apple Macintosh version of Northland is very close to completion now. The game has been in betatesting for some time now. "Northland", which was developed by Funatics Software for the PC is ported to the Apple Macintosh and other platforms by e.p.i.c. interactive. The Mac version will require at least a G3/350 with 128 MByte RAM and OSX. A OS 9.x version will also be supplied on the CD but the memory requirements are not 100% known yet. "Northland" for the Macintosh should start shipping from the middle of August 2003 and preordering from our webstore will start next week, when the demo version of Northland for the Mac will be launched.

More information on Northland can be found at: www.northland-game.com or under the title link.

The MorphOS version of Northland should go beta very soon. A demo version for the Pegasos and MorphOS can be expected in August. (ps)

 Web server: gW3S v2.1 bug fix available
Some of you might have experienced trouble with gW3S version 2.1. There was a bug in the fancy-files unescaping which affected the way XGI scripts was executed (resulted in a 404 or other error). This is now fixed.

I would also like to announce the opening of the gW3S Discussion Forum where you can get in touch with other gW3S users, and the gW3S development team. Everything can be found here. (ps) (Translation: sk)
