Reactions to the Adventurer # 14: Questions and Answers
Chasm> After reading the latest issue of our publication, many
complained that we had from the "interface" vanished under the
heading "letters readers, since for most people it was very
interesting. Of course, we have not stopped writing, but in
recent time our correspondence is purely personal in nature,
and certainly will be of little interest to the ordinary
reader, and also during training facilities revealed the
catastrophic fourteenth lack of disk space, so that many of the
articles had move to this number, and some just send to
rest for their apparent obsolescence. The latter just happened
to "Letters from readers, as to publish them in the next issue
simply made no sense.
Miguel> On the other hand, there were only two, you can read
them here.
Chasm> But since we (and you probably) still interesting
find a mass reaction to the latest issue Adventurer'a because
he nevertheless became externally and internally different, we
decided not to limited to reading and analyzing a small number
of replaev who came to our mailbox and reviews that
were published in some electronic media, so
established an appropriate topic for Scenergy. Below you will
for the opinion of visitors to my forum and feasible
answers to those questions which they arose.
Miguel> read what is written Vova, I also wanted to
some caveats.
Scenergy Web Resource Forum:
Topic: What do you think of the Adventurer # 14?
Newart> Something is not rushing me a new design. A particular
font, barely forced myself to read a few articles. Looks like
will have to fold to disk and read his texts listalke ...
Arty> NDA ... With the fonts you just namudrili ... Sometimes
combinations of the letters add up to meaningful words with
difficulty, and sometimes it's even funny;) interface in terms
of yuzebiliti also the most successful acquisition is good
though scrolling text left on the cursor:)
Chasm> Everyone has their own preferences. Personally, we like
the design and you have verified the font processing subjected
to virtually no was.
Miguel> A little bit I had yet changed. And yet, if you want
laugh - read jokes. Here is information for the mind, it
has value, so if you want, deign to work hard. Not
still free then ...
Chasm> A function save text was made specifically for such
cases initially. In principle, the interface is very easy, even,
you only get used to managing with the help of two lower
strelok aka the navigation buttons on the visited links, as
press (you can neodnokratnoe) takes you to a place previously
read articles where you left it. This is my
look very comfortable, especially to return to selection menu
articles. In general, those who have not figured out how it
specifically works, I recommend to train in this process within
half an hour, will certainly help. And to help you navigate
through paper with this number in the shell added two additional
button (by the way, duplication of hot keys) that allow
move to the end / beginning of the text given podgruzki.
Arty> In any case, the craze for old school
kommodorovideniem to good result, as we see, not
led ... A pity.
Chasm> We did not copy DESIGN none of you see us on
different platforms editions, all of which are present
is solely a product of creativity and Alff'a Miguel'a.
Moreover, as shells of almost all magazines komodorovskih
a much more minimalist than ours, and we did not
aspired to some analogies. In our view has Adventurer
completely different (for the better) on any other
stsenovoe publication as design, and content. While I
I mean not only the Spectrum, but the Amiga, Commodore, PC and
other platforms.
Miguel> As you can see ... And we do not see.
Arty> As for the music, here is difficult to say specifically,
taste and color of different felt-tip pen, as they say, but
attempts to express underground by the authors can assume
udavshimisya. Although if someone is interested in my opinion,
from what I heard, and I particularly in the details did not go
(although the first impression - most powerful) music - shit.
Chasm> On account of the fact that everyone has different
tastes, we have completely agree. We decided to move away from
these giant music collections, since realized that the music
must pass atmosphere of the magazine exactly as we see it,
although in our before it was about 50 tracks, but was chosen as
known, four of them. In this issue we have gone further, and
Miguel specifically wrote the only track that, in our opinion
passes, our mood and atmosphere of this very room,
though you always have an alternative in the form of sound: off
(enjoy the silence), or you can turn your favorite music on
YOUR cd deck;)
Miguel> In fact, for several reasons. First of all, of those
Mouzon, that were in our possession, and that Moran, Fatal
Snipe and-jeff, we chose only 3, plus the old track Never'a.
Frankly, I wish him remiksnut and paste it in solitude,
Zapara but simply did not have time.
Arty> As for articles, read with interest a couple of sections,
learned nothing new, unfortunately. In fact, boring. A
general, the journal became a pleasant surprise, I thought, no
longer be. We are waiting for the 15 th! I hope yuzebiliti
grow, and texts there will be more interesting, at least in
style. By the way, pro style landmark - "Scream".
Chasm> Unfortunately, kriik ordered to live a long time, since
our "Pet Sematary" is already digested this edition.
I wonder who we digest? :) Unfortunately, the finished
materials kq we almost did not pass, but was sent to a list
planned by the fourth issue, and some of them we
used. By the way, if sq protormozil not, then you can
Read his exclusive article for our publication.
Miguel> Nevertheless, I want to argue, the style is far from
skrju.
Arty> NDA, would you critique - I do not know. If not -
email me - I will remove this message.
Chasm> Why? We are subjective criticism is never spoiled
mood;)
Madix> Arty, good loaf crumble:) Punks again
all kicked ass, so it is what we want -
idlers, idler. At all - well done!
Chasm> Nice
hear, Maddy, what you liked, and about
"Lazy bums," it is interesting to say ... Immediately
remember the "48 irons";)
Diver> IMHO, the number will get quality in all senses.
Nice to not be distracted nor congestion Interface
(Previous numbers), nor on his nedodelannost (eg kriik3),
bust Mouzon (4 and not 24 as before), but is entirely immersed
in reading. Finally realized an old dream of all the scene
zines - bilinguality, though not entirely, on what is already
complaining about the Slovaks, but still! After all,
interesting to know the opinion bourgeois. And not just our
usual Czech / Slovakia, and already everyone who downloads # 14
of pouet ... About the gravity of the music - you can certainly
try to diversify the set of tracks lighter things but, to me
personally, prefer the music that I have now. Therefore 5 / 5.
Chasm> Unfortunately, a mass response from the
Western readers were not. We have written only Yerzmyey, Gasman
and Kempy. Moreover, any specific opinion expressed to us
only the latter expressed his gratitude for demoreview, thanks
to who became acquainted with the work skrju "Love Maker". The
guys from Hooy Program just informed us that they liked the
magazine and that Now Western sceners, thanks to their
diligence, see complete. TAP version ADV # 14, for which we are
grateful and, course. There was another reaction to pouet.net
from Optimus, type nishtyak (although it is a topic, a hike,
does not understand), but I got the impression that many
Western sceners simply still do not know about sushestvovanii
ADV (at least case of what he now bilang) or too inert to
reviews. For example, WOMO team only after six months with
the release of the fourteenth numbers found on sushestvovanii
our publication, and that because Elf spent i-net survey, and
in the mail list'e found their address. So, a "window to
Europe" we still have porasshirit;)
Bugsy / HDS> All the cool dude! Knowing our addiction to
minimalism (HDS style) you must understand that we sabzh check
it out. Excellent intro (dragged along with the letters).
Design - minimalism taxis! Traci - fit the atmosphere of the
magazine. Lyrics - beauty (especially of Yerz / HP). Navigation
- convenient.
P.S. Only fonts - shit
Chasm> Well, the font will have to get used:) And so - thanks to
kind words.
Himik> Music - too laden. Abundance muse - no it.
Intra - or Th special course, though there is something that
... Design The main screen - vrotten shnyaga! Too little space
for text all dark.
Chasm> At the expense of the music was all written above.
Miguel> And secondly, if I had a normal music, like in
last issue (49 tracks), it still would not have climbed on
disc.
Chasm> small window under the text stems from a desire Alff'a
implement framing scrolling text displayed
proportional font, moreover, that it is not inhibited by most
slow wheelbarrows. The darkness of the screen, in our view,
should not detract from the reading of the text and just focus
on it (Text) the reader's attention.
Himik> texts themselves - like nothing at first glance, but the
show-off see, and assaults have - but in general will do.
That's about as izhnews # 0D, old infa:) attempt to revive the
publication.
Miguel> "Yes, and assaults are" ... Careful what.
Chasm> By the way, I noticed that the most severe reactions
caused My article about Spekovskuyu press. Of course most of
all offended those who did not want to take a critical look at
their art. Here can be distinguished chemist, with whom we have
stood out in a skirmish guestbook at the POS to further
reconciliation in CAFe, disgruntled responses in the ZX-Time
(for some reason they stand up as for myself, and for the
Promised Land) and, of course, hysterical letter Cannibal'a. C
These can be found below. It is very curious;) By moral and
ethical reasons, I decided it was not make public (such as
personal correspondence), but simply a small probably too young
to adequately accept criticism of his work without child
tantrums and the transition to a discussion personal merits, so
let the people prikolnetsya;)
Himik> Font - govnische! Read tired. Cho on you all
genzovatost acted? Stylish? Sometimes FIG read, cho
written. And, of course not a pleasant thing that fucking
slow sample articles. Just do not drive on the emulsion,
Novice say the same thing, but he has real. Management does not
is. To be honest, the old obolchka was steeper.
Chasm> As I wrote chemist in guestbook - all questions to the
Hrumer'u and Hrip'u, since all articles are clamped precisely
this utility, as it greatly simplifies the assembly operation
magazine. Noticeable acceleration is obtained when running on
machines with memory 1mb (although 512 and 256 kb, too much
make life easier) because the whole magazine is directly in
RAM. And about Use the navigation buttons I wrote above.
Himik> Hopefully after CAFe03 will be a month or two before the
new numbers, rather than a year at this time. Success in your
work! And the good, quality and appropriate papers.
Chasm> We started working productively;) Time has turned
in six months, we hope that before the next global party scene
see and ADV # 16.
Miguel> Also, we stopped at someone's hope.
moroz1999> rather abruptly, which can not but rejoice. Music
completely inserted, design unoriginal.
Chasm> interesting and which are analogues in the design?
Something I did not priponyu.
moroz1999> Font tolerant. Very pleased with what has got to cap
the contemporary press. There are interesting articles, but in
general too few positive thoughts that can encourage the
creation of anything, quite the contrary. Generally, in my
opinion, it was necessary not use the name adventurer, and to
release the magazine separately. Too much, in my opinion,
talking about tons of the "scene" (Parasitic term) and too
little specificity and really useful articles. Who said that
Spectrum - total a scene?
Miguel> Counter-question - who said that the scene - only
Spectrum?
Chasm> As we wrote in last issue, we do
what we like. We see no need to change the name
only because of what has changed our world, because
Adventurer doing all the same team as the last six years
(Backbone - Elf, Miguel and I) changed only Encoders
shell: Xn0bys-Veka-Alff. From both nazyvyvaemoy "specificity" we
decided to simply go away (which is Inferno'Guide), shine
principal place in the journal Analytical and retrospective
articles. In our view, the time of printing type ZX-Revue
(despite For all our respect) has gone forever due to the fact
that teaching is almost no one (because of the small tributary
to the Newcomer platform), and "specific" editions at the time
was produced a huge number - who needs that will
interesting information, which is simply to visit
Virtual TR-DOS.
moroz1999> Anyway, in general, well, unexpected and original,
but from ADVENTURER I expected more. By the way, bilingualism -
it indeed necessary step. By the way, absolutely nothing went on
game themes, for me, for example, this section has been there
will be one of the most interesting:) And for Speccy games
unclimbed and unsolved on the shelves yet dohrena, and I think
I'm not alone a more mastadont who loves to play in something
earlier non-playing or unclimbed ... If there is a wish, I can
make a small obzorchik some of the favorite, but
not very popular (but in vain;)) igruh ..
Chasm> Here is news to you - this number is just the thesis is
geym industry and analytical articles, but there are "specific"
promotion games Skool Daze. And your suggestion, we consider
write letters.
BlackCat> Everything goes, everything flows, everything changes
... That Adventyurer changed ... Fly direct variable beyond
recognition ... Well or bad? It is hard to say ... One thing
for sure: magazine still represents a value, and
quite independently of their nationality (by the way, English
as a that in your papers is quite good!). Articles are
diverse, and it's nice. As already noted, ADV was
slightly difficult to understand in purely visual terms.
Think about it, OK? Good luck! And do not tighten with the
following numbers. Because we believe - Adventurer not so easy
to overthrow the world a! ..
Chasm> Well, before the tenth anniversary of the last out till
then for sure. Question on the CPU already resolved;)
Miguel> Hare Krishna!
Spir0> "Well, certainly a mixed impression. Like all taxis
And what is missing to be completely happy: (Uncomfortable
listalka, especially if the text of several parts is very
long should be subverted to read 3 or 4 part:)
Chasm> As I wrote, added special features
management to move to the start / end podgruzki, so that we can
consider the wish fulfilled.
Spir0> About the font - Usability voobshchem Nitsche:), but the
muse small: (4 track quickly bored, and then a lot of material
- as long as all read:), although all gloomy as that
neoptimistichno.
Chasm> At the expense of music has ever written.
Miguel> Do you think optimistically to sit on the 2-3-n ...
months waiting for the articles? So, I think, the 14-th issue -
yet florets. Evil will be then.
hangy> Personally, I did not like it absolutely is not afraid
of the words - even enraged, and in fact I was waiting for him
... In general, my expectations were not met, and sorry,
terribly sorry: (
Chasm> How many people, so many opinions. By the way, Hangy just
is mentioned the article about the press scene;)
Miguel> Yes it somehow, I think, just more of the drum.
Anonymous>
- I'm better you! - Sam motherfuckers! - And you lamer! - But I
say to three languages! - Please speak english. - All work on my
Esme! - In this new party will not back preselekta. - This
fuckin 'scene is suxx because C-64 scene is better!
Chasm> Make prods, not war!!!
Miguel> Yes, this man too, all poher.
Chasm> No more reviews in the forum was not, so I
felt it appropriate to include in this article extracts from
some letters.
c-jeff> guuuuiiiizzz!!! You gods! Shoot ... so intrigued with
the every month, and then kill all ... it can only
kyberpunks!!!
Chasm> We did a lazy asshole, but still nice;)
Miguel> I am not God, I - you bastard.
c-jeff> Articles just kewl! Thanks to you I've learned about
wss team and contacted them. turns out they're very interesting
people and make great game, besides a lot of things in the
plans. it was interesting read an interview with a cafe. just
not all the phrases I said, there was still arhon.
Chasm> Shit happens. If you only knew how I was tired of padded
Text from the tapes ... Sometimes identify people were very
difficult.
c-jeff> did not like the log kq, or rather the place where it
is clearly without causes down macros'a and yet there is
someone ...
Miguel> But what kind of atmosphere! Beauty!
c-jeff> interesting reviev dem. it's good you came up with the
account that they actually surveyed experts in their field.
why the application was practically no?
Chasm> Banal lack of space.
c-jeff> music is cool! especially liked the track never'a!
an electronically! kewl!
Chasm> Unfortunately, Never no longer writes in Speke, and
Achim, likely, too, because tightly masters Fruity Loops on the
pC : (
c-jeff> On account of the font. I do not know why he is so
people do not like. great font, but worth thinking over there to
letters are not merged. feel that you have moved away from the
stereotypes ... I do not know it is bad or good, but it seems
that this is another magazine ... although with the same cool
and interesting content design .... Good luck and look forward
neteprpeniem adventurer # 15 ! if that is required - please
write in care will not say! More something ... why there was an
interview with millenium'o2? let it been a long time, but still
it would be interesting.
Chasm> directly on MLN 1902 we glyuknul recorder (I'm about
it wrote in the corresponding report), so the interview did not
happened, but the people spoke emotionally.
c-jeff> I hope the new number will not have to wait so long as
# 14, and I hope you'll continue to do adv, because it
really cool magazine to his age:) adv
must live! Well, like all ... Thank you, kyberpunks!
macros> thank you. I liked him.
Chasm> thank you. us too.
Miguel> That's what I love the macro, so is this something that
is always time and to the point!
kq> I've just overlooked the room, and in general - almost
happy. Of course, this is when you consider that almost all the
texts I have already read a few months ago. not read it yet, no
interviews, and generally easier to say that reading .. not yet
liked it just the absence of Review on the last demo - I do
silent about the microcosm, but at least detroYT and Why? it is
quite possible it was time to feel and describe.
Chasm> In demoreview demos have been included only in 2002.
About Microcosm, detroYT, Why, and others read in this issue.
kq> finally adv was himself! :) ... But you sucked
with the release of another cleaner us:)
p.s. just noticed - there was no postbox'a. you that, no letters
occurred or what? :)
p.p.s. type was the most difficult to read from all that I
ever seen. -Thanks to the save text in a shell:)
Jam / XPJ> Finally! Congratulations. I hope that this
significant event you are washed properly. And hopefully not
the last again ...
Chasm> Nedozhdetes ... :) And I hope with your help;)
Miguel> And I no longer hope. Thanks, Jam, but then I text
checked himself. And without Ward.
Jam / XPJ> Now, the impression from the magazine. I do not shell
liked it. Horrible font - very difficult to read and little text
a "screen". Well well seems to be a good idea - the hyperlink
frame-scroll, as I understand it, etc. Why music
so little?
Chasm> because you can always turn COIL on your own CD deck;)
Jam / XPJ> about the article did not speak - I have them already
read. I can only say that if I had delusions of grandeur, then
I would be offended. And just concluded: write articles in
spekovskie magazines I will not. I do not blame your
the concept of kits, just do not feel like wasting time
and strength. I'd rather ha-ha! drove in warcraft. By the way,
finished pass WC-III The Frozen Throne. Saw it a miracle?
Chasm> CV RULEZZZ!
Miguel> Yes, to each his own.
Some quotes from Fido, on Adventurer # 14:
Shiru Otaku ^ IIpr> The long-awaited (by me;) sabzh appeared in
an Internet (Scenergy.natm.ru). After starting the sabzh, I
came across a question for (this is, of course, just my IMHO) -
what is this pornography? And Adventurer-then where ?!...
Explain who can.
Vladimir Karpenko> Yes, complete crap:) Especially iron
review:) I Drunk of delusion will not write:) And all because
of Frolov:) He's in vinovat all:)
Chasm> When you write a hardware review Clear used
materials are found exclusively in the i-net, though some
amount of information about the Sprinter was obtained Elf'om
directly from the company's employees Peters. For Fido Rybinsk
hq Access does not have (or do not want to?), so even these
were replai provided us Kurles ^ HS / CPU. On this basis, what
wrote Mr. Kirill Froloff to echo ZX.SPECTRUM us completely
Unknown (on communications Frolov podcherpnuta of
Target 11).
Miguel> Also, for me, the meaning of article is not
technical aspects and some zhelezyachnyh subtleties, and in fact
that the Pentagon 128 forever! This was emphasized by the
appropriate Article Elf.
Oleg Golenkoff> NDA too: (At first I did not understand what it
is ... any such pornography? : (Now I understand everything: (
completely with the author (SO) agree! If you really want to do
international journal had to do two versions! And then I
it resembles something like: translate from inglisha us breaks,
and back and even more so!
Chasm> How to write us Gasman, with translations from Russian
into English with us everything is fine (I think the opinion of
an Englishman can be trust). And English was originally sent to
us only one article, but Elf asked that the same Gasman'a and
Yerzmyey'ya. And the two different versions, we have refused to
even the conceptualization fourteenth number.
Miguel> Yeah. That is because a person made of wood. If we are
to be pedantic, most of the articles translated into just a
Russian into English. And to complete the sensation would try
himself to do such work than to scratch the language! Someone
doors making for 10 years, and then still engaged in compo
extracts from This protracted!
Oleg Golenkoff> I'm not talking about the tiny screen and
obsolyutno not readable font! Also I'm interested in where
proper interview with Twilight Demoparty? Which is so
diligently took Fatal Snipe ^ Fenomen?
Chasm> We are all summed up exactly Fatal Snipe. He just did
not filled Text from the tape.
Miguel> In my opinion, not us, and Belarusians. They are poor,
tried, thought that if a little nabazaryat in an interview,
they will remember. And so, in my opinion, Belarus Spekka scene
is dead.
Shiru Otaku ^ IIpr> still can not say that there is no graphics
Articles:) But it's really peanuts compared to
the above ...
Chasm> Placing Sprites in the text was provided for in
shell initially, just in ADV # 14 does not contain an article
in which required such an illustration. Full-sized images, you
I hope, have noticed, but in the report were also pictures and
2bitplan Finns. You simply had to click on the "fire" the
cursor is over link in the text.
Pawel Kislyak> I just have not found an interview with our group
taken on Linuliume'2002, okay if they did not publish it
that we were there in the woods nabredili;), did not you voice
recorder from them was a non-working was therefore asked to
re-answer Questions e-mail.
Chasm> We apologize, but Elf has collected are not all
interviews planned. Moreover, they seemed to us
too "dry", because first of all you our style in interviews -
live conversation, when people just say what they think and do
not try to "smooth" their market;)
Miguel> Yes, and not in this case. It just was the only
an interview with this party, so we considered it unnecessary.
Others same (about all of Belarus, see above) just scored. For
example, D-Art/Fenomen sent their news in adv # 14 after
release. By the way, now we do not live interview:)
Chasm> These are the scenes of the reaction was followed by
Adventurer # 14 if you have something to say about this issue
then please email wording, it can be found in section credits /
contacts.
