over the conversion from PC) Gulko ANOTHER WORLD
(Part 1 FLASH BACK). From me and pret

MMCM, author of the latest modified version of Pro
Tracker'a, working on a new music editor - Minimal
Tracker, which is going to be released
in late October - early November this
year. The main differences from the existing
Editors: If you press and release notes
sound stops. The length of the pattern changes on the fly. Go
to the editor of samples and ornaments can not interrupting the
currently playing tune. And, while playing a pattern may be on
the move to insert notes! And the most important mayhem! Music
can be written directly into the samples! Author can write
sa9e@euro.ru.

Project News Real Commander 2.0: How to
I wrote earlier, as work on RC
2.0 Progress has been slow, due to this
difficulties with the organization of the modular system, I
decided to release another version of Series 1.9 which fixes
are available deficiencies and known bugs. How could you
learn from the electronic media version of the RC
2.0 is planned with an open architecture and
modular system itself Commanderie will be absolutely "naked",
no appendage type of doctor, player, viewer, formatter. All
bells and whistles will be implemented in modules and loaded
through the "Startup". The open architecture will allow
connected to the driver Commanderie HDD, Player General Sound,
etc. I still fear that the version 2.0 can not settle down such
as the ZX-ASM 3.10, with its overlay system, especially
PZU'shnoy version, simply click the button and enter the
Commanderie with all the twists, what else
wait for it to load a prescribed modules
(Although they can be load and RC
Ramdisk). Boot from flop (with the basic modules), it
theoretically should not much longer than the younger version,
as while loading the modules is only one recourse to the zero
path, and then successively read all of the modules to best be
rasspolozhit Commanderie at the beginning disc.

Cobra Software Group is developing a new file manager -
Turbo Commander, which was originally conceived with an open
architecture and modular system. TC works with all known types
of memory expansion, supports RamDisk standard RC. It seems
that it will be a worthy rival Real Commander. In the coming
month should get the full version.

Interesting idea expressed Andrey
Elismont (ZX-Net, 500:152.5) in ehokonferentsii ZXNET.SOFT,
it was a MythOS:
Artem O. Kazakov> In connection with the full otsutstAOK>
condition at least a rudimentary interest in AOK> all this
development work svernuAOK> you. And since this was the last
AOK> project for the Spectrum in our group, AOK> nothing more
is expected, although plaAOK> screened Graphic Station 2.0 for
AOK> MythOS, RAD system for him though. If AOK> anyone
interested I can give AOK> assembler source code, and the core
of Myth AOK> OS version 0.4
Andrey Elismont> Stupidity is doing,
guys ... In terms of what snot, sorry, was dismissed: (Nobody
needs, lack of interest and all of that sort ... I do not I
know how someone thinks, but I believe that specs, anything
written for himself, and then already in mass rushes, where
every man will understand what he wanted, and what does not.
I do not know what you expect from the people, or
recognition and triumph, or even any compensation from an
ordinary user. In any case, you write the OS is not for myself:
( That's why it died out.
What do you think, why FT came out, and
CHV2 dead at maturity? Because when
writing a CV, Glory to assert itself, trying to write
high-quality realtime on Speck. And in the first place (I
think), he wrote it for himself (in the sense I can-I
it). But second, he had already decided to create
to thank all our customers (for us). A
who, as they say, excites private grief?
Naturally no one. Here is his desire burned, because he
achieved his goals firing CV, and what people want, "continued
banquet "(c), so it's their problem. and slowly, with small
steps CHV2 to the world gone.
(2Slava: If I'm wrong, then forgive me and
the right of me)
So, first determine who primarily need your project. If you need
sit down and build upon, to do so that
it was convenient to you so that you can it with radastyu
juzat. Well, so then, if you want, then you can throw to the
masses, then and the indifference of the people you would not
worry, do not have them well, and please you then its for your
convenience in writing, just decided to share. That is when the
project will live and not only will be modified and prosper.
There will be people who interested in this. But if you sit down
for ACM's thoughts "need-whether it is to whom?", then
better not to start. Believe me, anything sensible with it will
not work. Law of human Soul Better yourself, but for my uncle,
and so will come down. "
2all appeal to you! IF YOU DECIDE
Write anything, write for yourself! FORGET
At this point for us!
After all, how many projects thrown away, because
fact that the author thinks "need-if anyone is it?"
or when the author finishes to think of themselves
and begins to think of all, after which
All and all lozhit :((((
Think about it.
--- End quote -
Authors MythOS all still managed to convince
they are even needed in the system, promised to
will soon release a new version -
Myth OS Millenium Edition.

In the town of Vologda, the forces of Perspective
Group, created a new print edition
dedicated to the Speccy - "Passage." First number
for promotional purposes has been sent to different
CIS cities, has received a copy and I
Brest. While the newspapers and make at home
conditions, but neither is inferior to the design of
professional publications. The volume of the first number is 4
sheets in A4, printed on both sides. First number
50% consists of materials taken from
electronic publications. It certainly does not have
well, but for the first issue is quite acceptable, but in
future there will be newspaper writers supplying exclusive
materials. Now the main support writers in their endeavor.
Since the second number will 100% you can transfer money
directly for two numbers. For residents of Russia, the value
one number is 10 rubles, for
residents of other CIS countries - 15 rubles. Home address:
160035, Russia, Vologda, PO Box 136,

In the section for written statements specify what numbers
you need, or simply write "Current Issue."

Recently, users do not Speccy
too spoiled with quality games.
Many encoders for various reasons do not
want to take on something serious and unpretentious rivet logic
games. Salespeople Software can not offer anything new except
for gamers magazines, and his Majesty Gamers tired of reading
and the promise of cool Game buys a PC. I spent many years
software distribution in the city of Brest and
with my own eyes saw an outflow of customers with a platform
ZX-Spectrum, if two years ago I sold about 10 copies of
copyright Monsterland'a, now, in this sense Brest is dead.
There remained only a few coders continue in force of habit,
writing for the Speccy.

And here is the information from Peter provided NewArt /
N-DISCOVERY (Slavka Kalinin, 2:5030 / 885.50), which is
slightly brighten gloomy previous paragraph.
SK> At the moment our group wrote
SK> three game project, one of them will SK> children
completed yet for sure. PK> A possible detail about the
latter, as PK> the name, genre, especially
PK> approximate release dates?
Our group is now making 5 projects
it DIZZY # B with cool yumoristichekim
plot and original ideas, as does text adventyura with a steep
interface and fantasy yumoristichekim story Assumption of the
book 'Where to nothing' (if I'm not mistaken), well and plus
I'll do rulnuyu igruhu but while talking about her
early, so as not yet crossed the boundary at
in its creation, when we can say that
be-whether it is completed (but the game is uniquely
will cause a sensation!), yet written two system
Aon is a bend and a player that will play music samples and
Wave files. All perechislinye game started fairly recently so
before the new year doubt if that comes out demos because the
same probably will not, because as they were so
Spectrum is not enough.
By the way even in St. Petersburg is a turn-based strategy
game with gorgeous graphics and superb music and sound effects,
the timing can not speak so as it is written in two Chela,
Demonik - Gfx, Coder and Avatar - music, sound fx, script
and all sorts of stuff. In principle, there is ready to almost
everything, but since both were burned components the timing is
uncertain, but perhaps the new year will finish. A name game -
"Demoniada.

But the letter caught in ehokonferentsii ZXNET.SOFT by
Sergey Apetionok under the heading "do not pass by" concerning
Project Awaken:
Zdorovyushka you, All!
I really do not know whether it will reach the soap on
purpose, but the essence is this. Can someone and remembers,
there was a once-deme gems, AWAKEN called, but the full version
did not come out in connection with the marriage of the encoder
shorter than he scored in this case booolshoy bolt, which is a
pity: (. So there was me thought, what if there are coders who
will be able to finish it, and it freaks Mythos
after the release of demos Nemer. Globally was
modified space station (something vindoobraznoe) and had the
following Deme attend a planet (ie landing on
planet and, accordingly, if there is
Skimmer, then we can and to war on it). The source of all this
I have and it works quite quickly. The script itself, I almost
finished it off, we are testing it, and so Almost all 3D
objects for games drawn (Except for buildings on the planet).
If there are wish, we can and continue to work on
project. more Old that of a
was to represent AWAKEN send if
Of course there are interested parties.
Hopefully someone will respond yes.
