         -= The poll results on GS =

                            "Do not teach people to live, 
better help 

                         material "(C) Nemo (01.04.99)


  Thus, the leader, of course, "Black Crow-2" - it has chosen 
the majority of the respondents. (By the way, has already 
announced about 75%, It employs more than 50 effects and about

15 diverse music, which gradually merge into each other, also 
supported GS 128.) Behind him runs Lode Runner, and,

outside St. Petersburg, he is in great demand ... Next is 
Midnight Resistange, which almost catches the most popular Lode 
Runner. Also, for he has branded music and effects, hopefully 
it will not last, especially if someone will break his or he 
wants to sound ... FreeGames Myth (Myth, not Muth; D), was on 
the 4-m place, which is a pity, because from it we can do

an even greater masterpiece, the more it
already broken down and picked up effects. On
5-th place settled cool shooter
R-Type, cool, probably crush enemies under dynamic music and 
powerful effects. 6-th place is shared arcade Renegade 1 and 
Batman 3, just tired, IMHO, general'schiki from such violence. 
;) In the last place Robocop 1, which is very eager to see the 
regions that are, perhaps, Mike Blum will meet and will 
announce its ... 


  Now it's time for fun in
sense for your suggestions. ;) Black Raven
1-2 - 384x256x256 + GS (Glory Mednonogov,
eh? ;)). Beer for 512 Kb. ;) Gryzor with
sounds of Contra (Ruster, "Is it you?).
"Field of Miracles", but what? ;)


  Also, all the new author's projects (in
Basically, we do not mind, but to persuade
no one will). All Dizzy, strategy
such as Space Crusade, Hero Quest, Lords Of
Chaos, Might Magic. Plus the following: Stack
Up, Klax, Battle Command, Laser Squad, Time
Scanner, Doom Unreal, Shadow Of The Beast,
Super Cop, Capitain Blood, Worms (new?),
Battle Ships, Exolon, Terminator, Murray
Mouse, Super Cop. In addition, there are a couple
coming soon: Mechanic Wars (from GreenFort) and Sex Crime 
(shareware from Dimon). Yet most distinguished UFO 1'2

and BR-1 - Glory Mednonogov "rulez 4reva"!
:))) More people are not indifferent to the modem
Chess - incidentally, not a bad idea!


  Now sounded BR 2, Lode Runner and
Myth. What will come before - is unknown. After they try to 
start work on others games are popular. Unfortunately, all 
these ideas is not enough time, so if anyone wants _serezno_

he started to voice the game, then we can help
with samples and advice!

      -= Chip Player by Mike Blum =

  Coming soon a new job Mik'a Blum'a -
Chip Player for GS, which allows you to properly play the 
chip-ins, as well as correct some common modules.

Its highlight is the ability to use various plugins (plugins) - 
is something like overlays, or, for example, drivers for MMD / 
EMS. The plugin is called after load the module in it, in 
relative frequency, you can put different analyzers, 
miniigrushki, demos. By the way, if you want poizvraschatsya 
with GS'koy and write shell laziness, here Chip Player and 
useful. :) Details on the structure of plug-in

will be attached to the program.


  The interface is quite navorochen, it all
color. The cursor is transformed according to the windows, a 
lot of useful animations have the effect of pressed buttons 
(also support "hot keys"). All smoothly scrolled in all 
directions, just like on the Amiga. :) Controls usual: mouse, 
joystick, keyboard. There setup, support 4 drives, control 
playback (using the original "slides"), details of played by 
the module and other functions. 


  In the first version there is no play-list.
Chip Player is sharewar'noy program, originally on the disk 
will be Chip Player and plugin-parser, the rest of the place 
scored chip'ovymi modules.
