(C) Nuts
The city of Dzerzhinsk and its Spectrum
inhabitants.
So, my home town was anciently
rich Spektrumschikami different types and colors. It suffices
to take podshivochku ZXRevyu for 1994 and see a lot of
addresses of correspondents - gamerschikov of our city. A
little later in the city have begun to appear creative people:
coders, artists and musicians. Oddly enough, but the third
capital of the country - Nizhny Novgorod, never stood out such
people, and it's not looking that the best of times at the
Nizhny Novgorod Radio market was 3,4,5 ... -> Infinity of
traders and softnyh hardnyh. One of them, as authentically me
know, fond Amigo, and now he has
office, selling the PCs. By the way,
One of the most chic and cheap offices in
Lower. Well, those creative people
become actively engaged in doing nothing, as well as search for
and contact with his similar. And some did not look for - on
this very time I am not familiar with the authors of the game,
"Dust Star of roads, as well as with some
(2-3) individuals, to this day the leading
spekovskuyu activities. Below I will mention
some of them ...
The first and perhaps the most famous in
Ancient brigade - is perhaps, KZS
CORP, which is widely known for its
Project and the intro, these projects are advertised. In
particular, I have seen not one list of desired games, which
contained game "Enemy Mine" under this label. So
here, and this game, apparently, only one
of these projects! Even some members of this group were unable
clarified.
There was still plenty of other projects, their
fate is also sad. The author of these lines in
his time was a member of the team MASTER
HOME COMPUTERS GROUP. In those ancient times it was not known
strongly to anyone, but in the future under its label was
released several well-known software products. On it you can
tell detail. Originally it consisted of
WEREWOLFa artist, coders MOONWALKERa
(Then FOREMANa, now BREEZa) and RAVENa, and later I learned
more and met with BLACK ANGELom, plus was ALONE IN THE
DARK. When I met with these individuals, they are quietly come
up with a variety of fantastic projects, I became a This
smallness of help - as a result of gradually accustomed AFM.
Were released a few intro, SMAK MEGADEMO. Was carried out with
the easy familiarity KZS and its projects.
A little later, at the Olympiad in Informatics, I met with
TIME KEEPERom and SILENT CODERom (it works because I never not
seen). Even at their presence was released a well-known game
FAST BREAD, and I have to this day think that the graphics in it
drawn by hand, although many are skeptical. Much later I bought
the disks in which were the source of this game, the
intermediate stages are not very observed, but discs then were
not enough, there was nowhere to store! I can say only one
thing - WEREWOLF really cool artist!
That KEEPER, who studied at the lower, provided us since 1997.
INTERNET, as well as acquaintance with some people in lower and
in Dzerzhinsk - it is almost only saw them live! In particular,
he introduced us to ARTom (author PCZX Copyerov), and recently
it appeared that he had once gosteval PROG MASTER (he, too,
from our area)! Finally, in the same 1997. Our gang got
acquainted with the team Organisms. Apart from him in the group
included / / oland (ex-Virtual Boy) and FWC
CORP (cool on the idea, coder, but with very
systemic, structural concepts of the code with which the
transition to the PC just provided). This brigade was called,
reminiscent of great CONCERN CHAOS (not exactly remember), and
while they were trying to write Windu and the magazine.
Magazine that is worth mentioning separately. Firstly, it is
somewhat non-standard shell, already bears little resemblance
to Spektrofonovskuyu (there were there is an asterisk clock
hanging on the IM2 + TRDOS, arrow and lyricist, leading its
origin from the aforementioned Wind). Obviously, this is the
magazine gave an impetus to pressostroeniyu in our city. Slowly
polegonku, and then came that winter evening, when TIME KEEPER
in the hut of the Authority began to draw spinning label "WV".
Who knew that it drags on so long
period! Tear off a minute from the magazine to add that with
familiarity with the organism began major reforms in teams. It
was in his hut crowds, discussed how they would unite. But
the union has not occurred, there was only a regrouping of
people. Then the birth of FACE OFF ASSOCIATION, POWER PROJECT
and EYE-Q. And now, perhaps, nobody like to be and does not
remember - who where he was. They consisted of former Membury
KZS and organisms. The union was only a couple of projects:
NETWALK game was released and started work on the magazine. In
MASTER HOME COMPUTERS GROUP to of the pore of a new Membury -
BEAR, One of our finest musicians and activators of action
(seizure of the union), one time, he strongly campaigned for
modemizatsiyu, but then proklamatsionnoy leaflets is not
reached: (At the same time began zhurnalostroeniya era, which
lasted several years. The magazine makes the body and MASTER
HOME COMPUTERS GROUP, had a couple of articles from
ZX-MANIACov. Time Keeper actively communicated INTERNETu with
them, they wrote music in ENTROPY (and he with me, a couple of
hours fixed it for effects, but all these Maniac
altered, resulting in deme does not look so good). As to this
day claims ORGANISM, all brakes with magazine provided the
"editor" MOONWALKER. His passion for the rules of Russian
language and the ideological censorship of the magazine (view
author, sort of like, should coincide with its
personal opinion) led to all
articles he desired to control himself. But to do so in
connection with employment their projects and a gradual
transition on the PC is not in a hurry. Besides Time
Keeper constantly tinkering with the shell,
slow write articles, well etc. In short time, coming to the
summer of 1999. ie - To DI: HALT: 99! Report this
"Event" is also included in the magazine. Itself is party
obzhevana lot of different media, the general opinion was
formed. So I will not once again to dwell on stupid
organization and organizers, will only say that 600rub I
"Invested" in this case, I'm so nobody returning: (While such
promises were, in their time, not less, than the materials of
the event itself ... Simply no one else does not have the money
to pay the costs, rather, may have been, but none of
"Organizers" did not dare to show their (On the PCs spent,
probably). In general, enough about that .... But the magazine
for you! Magazine Even at that time was ready, his presentation
was held in SINDROMovtsam gromchayshih screaming past ....
Here, and then everything calms down, died down ... Now with
all the above mentioned organizations were 3.2 individuals in
the form of individuals implicated in the spectrum! For the
emulator sit, it seems, I alone have a real Speck, I include
very rare. Other realschiki to rarely reach their Speccy:
family, booze, PC ... So shamefully ends his Spectrum glorious
life to our city .... Unknown "coder" Nuts fon der TCOODOe ....
PSSey obituary I wrote the music RAMMSTEIN and Jean Michel
Jarre - very, you know helps!
