Hyperion announces their Amiga plans for 2000
In the next days, Hyperion will celebrate it's first birthday. When we started
this endeavor, it was our declared goal to bring high-quality high-end entertainment
software to the Amiga.
We believe we are on the best way to achieve this. In the last year, we created
an impressive code base, which will allow us to significantly reduce our time-to-product
in the future. This code base is now partially available for the Amiga community, too:
MiniGL, chunkyppc.library, the new Warp3D version (in cooperation with Sam Jordan) etc.
We work with two of the most inpressive 3D engines, the Quake-II and the LithTech engine.
In cooperation with Titan, we brought the Smacker Video Codec to the Amiga, a real
industrial standard. In the next months, we are ready to significantly speed up
the development cycle. This is why we want to answer some frequently asked questions.

AROS News
No news about the comercialisation of AROS, which is being discussed recently.
Many ideas have been talked about and evaluated, but as always when money is part
of the equation, things move slowly. Independantly the development of AROS is
continuing as usual.
There are still two well-payed jobs open!
Right now we are using DOpus 4, which was gratuitiously provided by GP Software,
to find and fix bugs in AROS.

SHARKS! CD32 edition almost finished!
For some time now I am working on a CD32 version of my game "SHARKS!". It's getting closer:
"SHARKS! CD32-Edition" will be finished in reoughly two weeks!
The CD version will offer many options to customize the game to your AMIGA. Among others,
a CD sountrack will be included as well as two other games by myself. This CD is not only
suited for the CD32, but can also be started with a "normal" AMIGA (OS2.04, 2 MB RAM &
CD-ROM). More details are available on my homepage, in the "Projekte" area.

New Lightforce version released
As I promised, the new Menu system has been "finished" on Sunday. There aren't that
much functions yet aside from Start and End, but you can get a first impression of
how it will look like. The archive is available at the Lightforce site as lha archive
in three versions: full archive, program files only, graphic files only.
A word on the (bad) graphics: I urgently need an artist taking over this part.
Everybody is free to modify the graphics files (png format) and send in his version.
I will provide these versions as archives on the Lightforce download site.
