e.p.i.c. interactive: THE FEEBLE FILES Amiga-Version in production
THE FEEBLE FILES has now been completed for the Amiga and sent off to go
into production. The finished game should be sent out to all those who have
preordered the game within the next 10-12 days. THE FEEBLE FILES is a
cartoon adventure from the makers of the famous Simon The Sorcerer series.
You are Feeble or rather you're a down trodden Grenelon who just happens to
be called Feeble...
Rendered animation, stereo sound and a plot of epic proportions take this
adventure into a different galaxy. Witty and humerous but with dark
undertones. THE FEEBLE FILES contains acts of betrayal, intrigue, revolution
and even a bit of cross dressing. Add to that around 80 locations to visit,
six thousand voice lines to interact with, there should be plenty to keep
everyone happy without the aid of chemical supplements.
THE FEEBLE FILES for the Amiga comes on 2 CDs and contains both full english
and german speech versions. The Amiga version requires either an Amiga with
68060, 4 MByte Gfxboard and 32 MByte RAM or an Amiga with PPC, 4 MByte
Gfxboard and 32 MByte RAM.
You can find more information on THE FEEBLE FILES in the projects section
under the title link.

Little SmallTalk with a GUI for the Amiga.

ScummVM Version 0.1.0 for MorphOS released
Rüdiger Hanke released his new version of the ScummVM-MorphOS. He wrote, that
this new version would fix many bugs from v0.0.3.
The MorphOS version got some display code now and became independent of SDL.
This reduces the program in size and switching from full screen to window mode
now works clean. Other enhancements are being worked on.

CD32-Emulator for Windows: Akiko v1.2
Finally the time has come! A new version of Akiko, CD32 and CDTV
emulator for Microsoft(r) Windows(r), can be downloaded from the
Airsoft Softwair homepage (http://www.airsoftsoftwair.com/)
Version 1.2 is a major update which is about 20% faster and
supports emulation of the CD32's nonvolatile memory including a
cool nv ram editor which supports importing, exporting, locking
& patching of save states.
Example of patching a save game is included
in the documentation. Additionally Akiko has now a real Joypad emulation
which means that the user can map every key / joystick button to
the CD32's joypad buttons. Akiko also supports the emulation of the
language identifier of the CD32 and CDTV now so some games appear
now automatically in the language you configured in the Akiko settings.
Finally there were some bug fixes and improvements in the single
patches as well as an extended documentation.
If you still haven't
registered Akiko (only $15US/15 EUR) you should have a look at
Defender Of The Crown 2 CDTV which can now also be played with the
Akiko demo version. But don't forget to set your native language
to the CDTV's language in the Akiko settings so that the game appears
in it. By the way, Akiko does not require the extended ROMs of the
CD32 & CDTV. Kickstart 3.1 and 1.3 are enough. Registered users
please send an email to akiko@airsoftsoftwair.de with "subscribe"
subject and you'll get the latest version (you'll only have to
subscribe once, then you'll always get the latest version of Akiko)
If you haven't registered yet, you should definitely get the demo
version of Akiko! (ps)

PerSuaSiVe SoftWorX sells Amiga Sources
Due to a lack of time, motivation and general interest,
PerSuaSiVe SoftWorX is looking for licensees that
are willing to obtain the source code for the well-known
ak Datatypes (other products on request) under exclusive
or non-exclusive license on as-is basis.
The license will not include the keyfile-code (removal)
and it won't include the right to sell a product under
the same name. So the licensee will be able to work out
new products based on the sources, without any further
relations or obligations. Basic help for getting started
with the sources and concepts will be provided.
We're awaiting your offers.
OpenSource projects may obtain FREE licences under
certain circumstances. Please contact us.
This offer is limited until 31.03.2001.
In the meantime, our website will be reworked.
The Amiga section was removed.
