... Scene News ...
$% Compilation by Surv! V0r
Since the release of eight rooms was already quite a lot
time. The scene has experienced is also not so little: a few
party, several high-profile releases. On this much is quite
possible to read in Scream # 1, and that I particularly like in
Belarus operational newspaper Body, therefore, mention only
what I think quite interesting:
That's what informed Jocker ^ OHG:
We decided (OHG) to release a major game project. Game
will indeed be big and fat. It is likely that
only for machines with more memory 128K. There is a need
know the percentage of people having a component with the
extension memory. So kindly requested to fill in the Greatest
anketku. It is also very please fill it out and for those who
do not have Fido or simply Friends, if you know what they have
comp. And send it to me soap. Yes, emulators are not counted.
Andy Harchenko
I wish U luck, Jocker.

According to the plan followed this. And it started LCD ^
Phantasy:
Super Spectrum Game Compo 2001
http://lcd-one.da.ru
Do u code?
This is the ZX Spectrum game coding compo, much like Bung for
Gameboy, with nice Prices. The deadline for entries is the
12/31/2001. If you are a coder and made a game for Spectrum, why
not to enter this compo? If it will be succesful, it will be
repeated in 2002 too.
Rules:
Any kind of game is allowed, but no rips ("remixes"-existing
games with changed name, graphic or codes, single routines from
other games can be used!), only allowed language is ENGLISH
(Read my lips: No Spanish, Russian or Czech messages are
allowed), the game must not use extended features of any
Spectrum clones like Pentagon.
Multiloads are allowed, but the loader should be in the Basic
part and customizable for other disc systems .. Interupt vectors
under 32,768 are not allowed as this will cause snow display on
a normal ZX Spectrum. Not allowed also the use of I-Pointer to
slow memory pages 4-7, 0-3 are no Problem.
Please send the games per E-mail only in the following formats:
TD0 (Teledisk, only for + D discs), TAP or TZX, no SNA, no Z80,
no other snapshots, extremly prohibited are the Multiface
snapshots, because the snapshots will indicate a "remixed" game.
Feel free to use Bmp2Scr to make graphics. Group works are
welcome too. If no entry will be sent until 31.10.2001, the
compo will be canceled (Need more time?, mail me!).

3 Prize: US Dollar 50
If one of the first three places will recieve equal votes,
then a coin will decide.
Any qestions? E-Mail me.

Question: So why TSTS1 will last?
Random: I do not see sense. many small parties in different
local union is good. If they are equally small in all
order, people exposed to the current which is closer to
vremeni / distance. Nevertheless, when there is more to
Rotate clockwise event, the balance is disturbed. People with
addictive releases, trying to time them for one or another
party, thereby other local meetings do not receive proper
attention. This impedes progress. This year, just need to do
everything the best way. I hope that after TSTS1 meaning in a
single huge party will not. if someone disagrees with me,
please comment.
<...>
Here's another little snippet of information archives
abroad. The information obtained is not now and not yesterday.
You look at the year in the name of the first line of title
English text, flip out another year or two and everything will
fall into their historic places. I suggest you familiarize
yourself with content in the original article:
So:
Clive reveals the ZX2000!
My new computer will be 10 times faster than a P2!
(Typed by Craig Rothwell '(C) Frontiersmagazine)
I want to design another computer because I think I can make a
decent job of it. I've started work on a prototype already. It's
a competitor to the PC because the modern desktop computer is
about a bad design as possible.
It really is appalling. It wastes memory on an unbelievable
scale and it slows down an extremely fast CPU with cumbersome
Routines and programs. I think theres a huge room for
improvement. I want to create a computer that completely
portable but also totally functional so there is no compromise.
I want something that is going to cost 10 times less than a
current notebook PC and have a huge battery life so You won't
have to keep recharging the thing.
The trick is to get the power consumption so low that you just
stick in a couple of batteries and replace them a month later.
I've been spending a lot of time looking at display technology,
because that's one element that I haven't got. I need a very
good, low cost display. I think I know how to do it, but it is
an terrific amount of technology but I'm working on that very
hard at the moment. In order to do the sort of computer I want
it has got to be very very low power.
We designed our own CPU and its an extereamly high performance
one, we had prototypes of it sometime ago and its blindingly
fast, About 10 times faster than a P2. It would have to be
manufactured using a specially developed semi conductor process.
I've been talking to a company in this country and were at a
fairly advance stage. It's an ultra RISC chip, which has an
8-bit word, and it has 16 principal instructions. I don't want
to go into too much technical detail or bamboozle you with
jargon, but this little blighter Will be incredibly fast and
very efficient.
-
For those who are little interested in the 'language of the
scene', briefly retell contents of the article. The fact is
that by the end of the twentieth century, Clive Sinclair once
again decided to shake the world with their sensational
statement, which is based on a simple phrase - the company
Intel will sit in a pool with their processors, while
Sinclair's company will produce computers ten times faster than
the P2 and ten times cheaper than the latest model Notebook PC.

Surv! V0r: Should of E-Mage expect this year to DeMouy
CCoo1? There are persistent rumors that you were nezarelizheny
some oldschool effects of dem?
Kva ^ E-mage: Say so - were. Spectrum now has remained
only our musician ... and he is not very much work -
always buggy. Especially since I'm now in Minsk, RUM was
live / study in Grodno. Scratcher has recently returned from
the army and looking for work.
It is unlikely that anything will be under the brand name
E-Mage ... :-(
<...>
Once Quasar, editor in chief of Polesie suggested that
that he was ready to sacrifice their newspaper for the
publication of a large editions for the Spectrum subject to
availability and viability of the latter. According to him,
these attempts to make one general publication recently
undertaken a lot, but they found no support among stakeholders.
Indeed, if we talk about electronic publication, it
universal log is not created. Scenergy is not the same, except
Scream that will somehow fix the situation, while also
probably unlikely.
After all bent Spectrofon, ZX Format - all of that
no interesting materials and commercial interest. That
still dreaming of a printed edition of the living, which can be
hold in their hands. 'Passage' frisky take start, but the
advertisements had suffer, its just not noticeable, although
the excitement was enough high. I myself have read with great
interest all left rates and urge you, for those who have not
yet done, Order all the numbers from the author via e-mail:
axor@mail.ru
Speaking of Spectrofon'e. In Fido is still hovering idea
revive asleep magazine, and Timothy Lapo expressed his desire
to give somewhere beautiful unreleased material from the ZX
Format # 9. Y anyone have questions? I - yes. Why should you
suffer if there is a lot of journals and electronic newspapers,
who gladly take your stuff in print? For example, Serzhsoft
started campaign on the Internet to promote its print edition by
called 'LDIR'. The first number, he promised to bring to the
Chaos Constructions'001. So it makes sense to get lucky for a
tail!
Here's a snapshot software, drenched in Virtual Tr Dos ...

Yes, the guys from Triumph delight us with their activity!
Here, recently conducted a Final Shoque, even diplomas to send
yet have time:) released Bezbashenny 6eccuL, which site
scenergy preposterously called them BECUUL'om:) stuffed a
couple of issues Combat leaf WareZ. And then on you - din, and
even what! Most that neither is a logical, know only the eyes
move!
Goal of the game - to put dibs on the
cheater-thimblerigger:) There are two levels of difficulty, and
the first to win a computer, you should not make any special
cuL. Personally, I game very much. Good graphics (especially
the fine print :) And an unusual story. But most of all I
Proper final cut:))) This is a must see!
In general, the game is very priyatstvenno. I advise
everyone, who has a sense of humor.

cracked by CyberJack ^ triebkraft
Size: 430 sectors
This game is, you guessed it, from the legendary author
Cezar'a and 8 Division ... Do not rush to grab the balls!
CyberJack here have worked well, and fix any errors (at least I
so I think the author's version I have not seen:)
I'm sure many remember the old good Eric and the
Floaters. The plot is well known, and attempts have been
precedents in the creation of such games, such as Dina Blaster,
but it could play together only. In obziraemoy same game can
not gamitsya Only one - you can even do not play:)
In the game (had) a lot otsifrovok under covox, most of
who has kindly been killed because of amputation of upper
memory. Who does not like - look for the author's version and
enjoy the poetry Great and Mighty Stsenovogo Russian Language.
As I understand it, precisely because of these very otsifrovok,
and also because a variety of game modes to one / two of the
game is called Super bomberman-2. That's just not clear where
this very bomberman-1.
Author Progress is there, this game is already playable,
and it pleases.

(C) 1997-1999 by Brokimsoft
author's freecopy version
Size: 939 sectors
Ugh, this game is about so much is said - do not want to
repeat. And write about it prompted me to its appearance in
Appendix magazine Black Crow # 5. And in the magazine
reported that the country goes neavtorskaya freecopy, ie keygen,
which is impassable. Ibid, Ticklish Jim says
that the present author freecopy version is in
annex to the magazine, more than that - there she releases the
first again! That is, all versions of CSC: DV, walked to the
exit of the journal declared NEAVTORSKIMI and impassable.
Well, it would seem that? And the fact that we were reached
by all working and cross-country version of CSC (it is this
which is in Appendix) long before the magazine came out
himself, somewhere in the earlier this year. You are about
something speaks? And another curious fact. The annex to the
Black Crow-5 this game published not in full ukomplektatsii and
imeeno - None All copyrights manuals, and diz'y read_me, but
nothing of the story and I do not I say. A TJ in the magazine
wrote that, say, this version the most complete, with novels,
etc.
I hope you all have seen and played this game. If not, then
must remove and pogulkaytes - it's worth it.

Wow, that's the continuation of all your favorite games!
Papa Homer cooked in a brew last time, so be it in this
parts? And he will be nothing like an atomic blast
station.
What do we see this time? However, the abundance of
otsifrovok, this times even port covox'a can choose cool
graphics and save welcome at the request of the workers. I must
say that made this save is very original - when loading the
game state displays a small tekstik, which describes all the
actions made by you in the game.

BKA Software "Jackals"
I am pleased to present you my first game for the
ZX-Spectrum. Genre Games - Real Time Strategy (RTS). Actions
unfolding a few centuries ago, in an era of brave
knights. Some two princes are not divided up the land of his
father and declared war on each other. That you'll have to
command army of one of the princes.
You are waiting for numerous fights with the enemy, would
have to perform different orders of his master.
The game has the standard interface - the cursor control
plus hot keys. The main ideas taken from the very well-known
Warcraft Age Of Empiries and Black Raven.
For English fans Spectrum entire text is translated into
Oangliysky (you can select the native language in the setup-e).
Computer Requirements:
* Z80 CPU 3.5Mhz
* 128K RAM
* Beta Disk Interface with the drive 80x2 DD
* TR-Dos V5.03 or compatible.
Desirable to have in addition:
* Z80 CPU 7Mhz Turbo
* 256K RAM
* Kempston Mouse
* AY or General Sound
The game runs on any Spectrum - compatible PC
at least 128K memory and disk drives Beta-Disk. Firmware TR-Dos
should be compatible with version 5.03.
Jackals take into account the processor speed and
availability of Turbo-mode welcome, in addition to 3.5Mhz
processor in some moments drawing will be slow. Holders of 256K
vehicles will have additional effects and music. Sound is
output on AY or General Sound. In the latter case, the player
will get much more impressive audio effects. You can control
the keyboard or mouse.
And now, some of the technical data "Jackals":
* The size of the global map: 128X64
* The size of the work screen: 192X192 (24X24 familiarity)
* Visualization: in color, body.
* Card Scanner: 64X64 RGB in real time.
* Update Time: 6 frames (8.3 fps)
* The mouse cursor is suspended by interruption of.
* The number of warring parties: 3
* Maximum number of units: 160
* Maximum number of buildings: 64
* The maximum number of flying arrows: 32
It should be noted that the graphics in the game and a
little color volume. It takes a lot of time, but looks, in my
opinion, more gracefully than the flat sprites in the first two
demos. A RGB scanner (an idea that suggested <Mad Cat>) allows
depict a map right on the game screen.
In "Jackals" three warring parties: except for you and your
computer There are neutral troops. They tend to protect what
or objects, and attack all who see it.
The game is a standard way of development: the construction
of buildings, study of science, recruitment of soldiers. All
resources - water and wood. The tree is extracted as usual -
working chop wood and carry it in the nearest town or to the
warehouse. And the water must be extracted from wells, which
can only be built on the banks of rivers. Also necessary to
build a farm, or food not hvatatit, and soldiers will be desert.
In the course of your development will be to train more
strong men: for example, Knight (Elite unit) without loss
destroys infantry and archer (one on one), and the demon did
not even allow the knight to his approach.
At some stage it will be possible to train a magician. He
has magical properties: treating soldiers looks inaccessible
parts maps, can explode at once a dozen soldiers, etc.
Catapult is capable of destroying the forest, rocks and
walls. Her destructive power can cause significant damage
immediately multiple units, standing near the center of the
explosion. Can not forget about the walls - the most powerful
protection.
The wall is an insurmountable obstacle for the enemy
low-flying arrows and arrows safely skip your warriors.
The strongest unit in the game - a demon. He has a very high
travel speed, excellent attack and defense. A pair of demons
able to cope with dozens of elite units. However, own
see ...
If you have any - any questions, suggestions, ideas
or suggestions to me, I'm always at your service:
e-mail: bka_software@mail.ru
P.S. Completely finish the game, I plan for 2001.
