     Hi guys! Since the release of
Latest news releases has been almost
six months, and during this time in our city
There have been many different events. Will not
bore you with lengthy introductions and
start (premature death, I do not
suffer and therefore you will read that here). So - first 
Rybinsk news. 

     Group AURYN suffered irreparable
loss - in the prime of life and creativity into the hands of 
FLEX gorvoenkomata was mishandled in Moscow for urgent service. 
As can be judged by the melancholy letters, office he has 
already managed to annoy and SPECCY more and more dreams at 
night (just like any bimaya girl). So if you wrote

letters to the editor of the journal to address Zavodchikova 
Constantine - can sound a fallen (ADV: in the first place, we 
broke some), because the letter to us reached for the simple 
reason that they are waiting until they read the FLEX, which in 
the best case will occur during the summer holidays. Write a 
letter now ELF'u (Address in the "AD").


     ELF, in turn, took over
work on the improvement of the shell of the journal, which is 
pretty good he can. Kostya speeding up the print driver, added

screen saver and a few other widgets
as he did intro to the magazine. Recently, the editors received 
several complaints from popsovatosti music (One even from me). 
Previously, it picked up RAY - known popsyuk (sorry, but this

honest truth), but that number is to be a prerogative of ELF'a 
(SEPULTURA RULEZ! While PRODIGY is also very cool).



     RAY did next version of its
monitor (see annex) and now
conceived the game in style RPG. Working title yet kept a 
secret. Conceive of a planned, but now he has problems with

graphics - so that the timing of exit is not
says.

Comment RAY'ya: Information for those who
still can not kerf what made RAY DISK MONITOR. While this 
layout is number, I have "crashed" a separate line on the disk 
with all the texts of articles for it (cut down the light when 
I rewrote on this disk). So, with this

program, I restored the entire disk (!)
In just over two hours.


     CAV inc. experiencing the same
difficulty - his project "WAR ROBOTS"
while suspended, but no matter it is not
sitting and while developing arcade adventyuru tentatively 
called "hedgehog - MUTANTS.


ADV: For the "robots" CAV'u need three-dimensional
image. Who has access to the 3D-editor and someone who can help 
- contact us or Sanya.



     We have INFOSOFT yet calm - in some ads coming soon'ah 
"MASTER OF ORION" passed into other hands, so as 
PROTECVISION'am now before him. Shurik went to work and all day

it disappears, and Lech the other day and got married
now for some time will be no time
computer. But good beginnings are not in vain! On the paper 
joined the guys from SURDAKAR (which will be discussed below). 
SHRSOFT and SURGEON finished yet begalku the maze for the 
project based on the "HIRED GUNS" and put it indefinitely, for 
the simple reason that no one really can not draw a monster, 
and Convert obtained so painfully ugly. So if you live

Rybinsk Rybinsk or area and are able,
and most importantly want to draw - call

ELF'u or visit the flea market for the Volga
on Sundays. Your creativity will be
assessed on merit (no money, so
fame, and maybe both).

     Also SHRSOFT develops (such as
how, as he broke down the drive)
artificial intelligence to "MOO".

     Amateur delve into other people's insides SURGEON, so 
tightly encrypted from the military office workers and police 
that sometimes even to us it is not found (I

for example, have not seen him for a month).

     Have you ever heard that from
SPECCY can perform on stage, using it to extract the music? We 
also with NEVER'om never heard of, but still decided to try it.


     At the end of last year at our club in a festival of 
alternative music. Previously, there used to all - Starting and 
ending punck doom, there was no only the acid and we decided to 
fill this loss. Teamed up with another pair

children, one of which is sang (or rather growled)

and the other played live on bass, we did
three tracks in the style of acid noise, using
DIGITAL STUDIO. Although the sound was naipozorneyshim, but 
people liked Mouzon - People Hacked at the scene, shaking Haeri 
(who, Of course, they were). So who wants to

listen to the DS modules - write.


     SURDAKAR GROUP also not sitting idle. Andrei Smirnov 
finish "ROAD FIGHTER", as well as masters PC'yukovy emulator 
SPECCY, since altered my monitor from Spectrum in VGA mode. 

     Together with SHAITAN'om (a pseudonym
took to the Jura Parshukov), Andrew joined the "MASTER OF 
ORION", so that the process moved forward. Also SHAITAN make 
the next version of its "FONT Editor.



     Nikita Frolov from WREDOSOFTWARE involved in writing the 
script for RAY'ya games, and in his spare time writes for


PC game "Self-learning-tac-toe."


     Now I want to highlight one joyful event - in our town was 
formed another team. It's called dovolno

cool - GroboClone. It includes:
Neighbors, Vanya (STELLEREX), which is quite well known in our 
city as a steep graphix maker, Shishkin, Mikhail (TWINSEN) and

Pavlov, Alexander (D. J. ALEX). The guys decided to finish the 
long-standing project STELLEREX'a entitled "GNOMON" - this will 
be a graphic adventyura style "GOBLINS". Also conceived in 
their game "NEUROMANCER", which will be sustained in the spirit 
of "BLOODNET" with PC.



     Misha Yershov (INFECTED PIXELS) bummed finally own a 
computer, and now he can expect a lot of cool graphics, which 
we all so desperately lack. 



     The fourth issue I promised to connect with ROS ltd. and 
FAST SOFT'om. After a long phone calls, I finally caught ROS'a 
and asked how he lives. The answer was

is not reassuring: not only is it very
surprised that SPECCY in our city
have not yet turned down (you will not wait!), it grieved me 
that absolutely nothing makes on its PC'yuke and FAST SOFT 
poplohel worse - bought a Panasonic 3DO and sits in a blunt cut 
game. The Lost Boys, which is a pity. 


     Well, like I'm here all covered, who
do something to SPECCY in Rybinsk
therefore, to give the floor to our special correspondent in 
Yaroslavl Vlad Voschenikinu. 

          (C), Vladislav Voschenikin


           Yaroslavl news.



      Hello, my friends, so again, Oleg Filimonov, and its top 
ten jokes ... Oh, ugh, what am I doing? Ah, yes ...


      Hi friends, this is Vlad Voschenikin
with news from the capital city of Yaroslavl
(Although, as anyone). Let's start ...

      A. Lebedev, better known as
CONDOR soft but the spread of p / o, in
currently active, according to his own
said, is in correspondence with many leading programmers and 
creative groups in the country and neighboring countries. Soon 
time (maybe) in the sale will Electronic Journal of Magadan. 
Also his plan is to promote in Yaroslavl and the computer field 
"AMIGA". This project he was going to perform together

with NICODIM'om. At the beginning planned to sell computers

but over time may pass and
Model "A1200".

      NICODIM working on the project "LEGEND OF KYRANDIA". Work 
is moving slowly but surely. Any release dates program in light 
of Roman refused to name, citing the fact he did not want to 
deceive the people of unrealistic promises. About the recent 
noise about the glitch in his "PRINCE of PERSIA" he replied 
with three points: 

      a) Do not use the MAGIC-soft'ovskoy

         version, it is illegal.

      b) There are no glitches that can not be

         was to take the game to end.

      a) Some of the glitches had wasps
         tavit not to hit rate

This is purely a strategic game that looks like "Last Battle". 
Also ready to DEMO-version new three-dimensional turn-based 
toys. Her the working title "Death worlds." From

the fourth part of it will be possible to distinguish the 
rotation of the hero at 45 degrees (see "Application"). In 
parallel to preparing exit game "Reversi", a worthy 
continuation of "hectare" and "Pyatnashek. The game present

a month, the approximate release date - the beginning of 
February. According to the same CONDOR'a, This edition will be 
very similar to the newspaper "On-line" complete lack of music 
and an interface that writes Dr. Shura. 

      At Yaroslavl radio market I was fortunate enough to 
stumble upon user SPECCY from the city of St. Daniel. After a 
brief conversation, I fell into a full prostration, as it 
turned out that Danilov

      When I asked what they do
do, I proudly answered: "trying to write music ..." Shame on 
you, Danilov, shame on you! At least read magazines!

True, the I found it quite by accident, after reading
