Michal 'kiero' Wozniak has adapted the game "UHexen2 - Hammer of Thyrion" by Ozkan Sezer
and Steve Atkinson in a extended way for MorphOS
(screenshot 1, 2).
A graphic card with 3D-drivers as well as the tinygl.library and the
powersdl.library are required.
For the installation you need two files of the original game: pak0.pak and pak1.pak;
you have to copy those ones to the directory data1. Then you can start the
update-script.
If you also want to enjoy the colored lighting you need the Colored Lighting-files.
The .lit-files which the archive contains belong to the directory data1/maps.

Today the alpha version 0.8 of the PPC native tcp/ip stack ezTCP from Pavel 'Sonic' Fedin is available for testing under the title link. It doesn't contain the known bugs. At next the author wants to implement the dhcp support.
As a new feature ezTCP would support the full fuctional support of the BSD socket API of version 4. With the implementation of socket events even AmiNetRadio would work correctly, as an example. Moreover the syslogger would loose no more messages now.
If you encounter problems with your programs in combination with ezTCP, please inform the author or consult the Thread in the MorphZone.
