Some time passed and a
New electronic publications appeared. So, no-
a large overview of this type of activity:
1. Heresy#3. Yes, Ash knows how to surprise.
This issue of the newspaper came out directly from him
let's say in a major style, but more precisely
but - dancing on the grave. And they ended up in the grave
many. Both the organizers of Di:Halt'99 and the children
that of EI and of course aARTY. Not the same anymore
scary, but killer stories and jokes,
cool music for his newspaper and much more
other. There are also, although with errors,
but at that time the most complete results
you're from Di: Halt. In general, the newspaper turned out
quite punchy and readable in one breath-
khania. In the application you can find the text by
basics of programming in 3D graphics (e-
then for those who are interested in how they were made -
we have some effects in Napalm).
2. Heresy#4. Looks like Ash decided to out-
no one else and materialized into the world
one issue of your newspaper. Comments here
unnecessary, because the number is new and who cares
they can read for themselves. You just need to add
It turns out that he is from the family of the first two new
measures Heresy. 3. BUZZ#18. Less than a hundred years have passed since
EI have generated another number of “rumours”. C
With each issue they delay the release date
yes its publication and soon perhaps again
Everyone will stop doing it. This number is
beamed much weaker than the previous ones. Them
no less than several interesting articles about
it is possible and even necessary to read. Namely the article
about the Russian E2k processor, a new development
ku based on the Amiga and the theory of drawing in
ASCII. But the application has the latter
version of the Trick 3.000 protector from
Paracels, which in itself is very good.
4. Born Dead #0C. Periodic gas
the one from Samara. However, recently
somehow lost its power. And this is an example -
mu this number. Almost all articles are co-
keep news of certain parties. Infor-
It is quite possible to find a concept of such a plan and
through other sources, moreover
more authentic than Born Dead. Only from one
them data from the results of party Di: Halt'99
the hair begins to move on the head - on -
before it was time to publish this. Interesting
what place did MMA think when SUCH was printed?
Tal. Of course, I understand that mistakes would-
they do, but not to the same extent! And I
I used to believe everything written in this ha-
zete :-(((. In the attachment there is a game
GUN MAN. 5. Born Dead ##0D. Another number of sa-
Mar newspaper. In the room you can find a description
Walkthrough of the demo version of the game Full
Shit, review of party PARADOX'99, article about
stillborn baby Z88, several pa-
roles for the game and something else. In the application
you can find music from DOXYCON'99. By the way
speaking, in a review of new software
Cookie MMA slightly ran over
"FAN#01", accusing him of emulating
inclinations. On this occasion I would like to make a remark-
It should be noted that in the magazine "FAN" there was only one
to an article about ZX-Spectrum emulators and one
but this kind of application. The rest
the articles were devoted to musical themes
ke. In this issue of FAN, I wanted to continue
live section "Virtual Spectrum" and pos-
get used to shells for working with images
disks, but since this is the case, take it apart -
decide for yourself :-(((. As for the topic from-
rushing to the PC, then in Heresy and then you can
find more. And generally speaking Born Dead
I spent almost a year publishing an article about
Amiga, which many would not even dream of
they can. So, "these are grandma's pies
Marusya".
6. MIRACLE #03. One of the best magazines
catches remaining on the Spectrum from Triumph.Professionally made shell, premium
background music, not bad
compiled application and of course articles.
In them you can learn about the latest gaming
software, learn to code, consider
structure of the tricky MS-DOS, visit
two parties and go to the laughter room. Yes
So, don’t waste your time, but BUY ASAP
Miracle. Don't wait for a broken one to appear
new version of the magazine, by paying money you
support the manufacturer and give him
opportunity to please you in the future
with your works. Don't steal from yourself!
7. KrNevs#10. Latest news from Krasnoyarsk
nodara. As before, the shell does not support
The mouse and viewer operate in one frame.
in this issue - CC'99 through the eyes of eyewitnesses,
how to code a 256-byte intro, IS-DOS,
novella, humor and something else.
8. NICRON 112. The newspaper has interesting
news articles: "Bill Gates will not go to
Russia", "News from Fatality" and a story about
CC'99 through the eyes of eyewitnesses, there are photographs
fii.
9. POLESIE#8a,8b. This newspaper issue
consists of two parts. Not bad music.
The newspaper mainly contains letters from readers
lei, review of software and go-
Melskienews.
10. OPTOCOUNTER#29. A typical example of
How can a dull edition be converted?
Looting in is not bad at all. In this but-
At least you will find articles about CC'99, ZX hardware,
soft review and other necessary information.
That's all. I talked about other publications
Rome next time.
(c) Melted Snov, 03/11/2000
Due to delays in the publication of the magazine, the first
part is clearly outdated. And therefore, to put it
in the language of PC users, “let’s upgrade.”
1. Newspaper Heresy#5 (by Ash). Contains
Quite a cool letter from Goblin. About co-
holding his number you can say in words
one of his readers: “I really liked
5th issue Heresy, this is one of the few ha-
Zet, which is read in one breath and with
pleasure..." In my opinion, this says it all -
zano.
2. Born Dead#0F. It has already become a tradition
wait for the release of this newspaper and find out the news
youlatest news. In this room as
always a story about passing parties, review
soft'a, UnBEL!EVER's chatter (just something
Lately he's been imitating more and more
Ash). Quite interesting is
article about the computer Coupe itself. What do-
really surprised - it's so unexpected
colored text appears.
3. ZXHard#02. Finally. And then the people
worried that he wouldn’t see the second number
ra newspaper entirely dedicated to the spectrum
mov iron. The authors used a device
improved version of PPM with nested
windows, but lost control somewhere
from the mouse, which is not very convenient.
4. Magazine FUNeral 1.5 from Delirium
Tremens. Recently, good magazines
there isn't much fishing and that's why
Funeral will more than take up your free time.
Lots of good music, graphics, articles. B
The application contains: a new graphical re-
dactor BGE 0.10 and all-playing music player
ki SP_2.2f (except Sound Tracker).
Recommended for everyone. Yes, a few words DT -
if you don't want to correspond, at least
return the disc to its homeland (this also applies to
Horror Soft).
Fame of the Eternity Industry groupgives its results. Like mushrooms after the rain
BUZZ style newspapers appear.
5. Newspaper InSaNiTy#05 (by Light Future
Group). Completely streamlined BUZZ interface,
with the same glitches in the XT-keyboard survey.
However, to be honest, I am a viewer in hi-rez
I haven't seen it anywhere else. Articles translated
You can eat.
6. Newspaper Bugs#01 from Velikie Luki. Auto-
ry argue that from start to finish
We coded everything ourselves. It is quite possible to believe in this
rit. Single-frame (albeit slow)
scrolling against the backdrop of rain, from which the
glitches appear over time, cool
Mouzon from ATB, high-quality graphics and digital
rows. It is clear that the guys are going to the first number
approached professionally. But here it is completely
licked style starting from presentation
authors of the newspaper before taken from boot EI ra-
the lobes completely ruin the whole thing.
7. Newspaper ZX FOOTBALL 2000 from Serious
Makers Group with the participation of Kovrov residents. Made-
for the New Year based on the shell
ZX-Pilot. As you probably already guessed -
completely dedicated to football.
8. Newspaper #Z80-06f (by 4D). Contains
results of a recent party
Millennium of good (and not so good) works. On-
that's right this is the fastest release I've ever made
I actually saw it among virtual competitions.
There is an article by UnBEL!EVER in which he
trying to measure Goblin and Ash (unhelpful)
useful idea).
9. In addition, those who like to read do not like
lets take a look at Nicron_116, Micro 23,
Fanat3, Alvays#02, Optron 34, IzhNev#4,
ZX-Nev#50 and Polesie#15.
Although the review of soft is not included in the scope
this section, there are still several programs
can't help but mention.
1. BestView 2.9. The best viewer for
at the moment with the possibility of listening -
music (PSC 1.7 is not supported!) and
viewing pictures. In the new version there is
it was possible to record the found pa-
forged modules onto disk unpacked
form. Now BV can be put in one row
with STS as the best debugging tool
programs. And it is not surprising that the program
Ivana Roshchina took 1st place in the category
"The best system programs of 98-99."
2. Laser Compact 5.2.New version of the package
ra screens.
3.GameWolf from Severodvinsk is
text adventure with pictures and pro-
nerdy plot.
4. Game8-departmentfrom Action. Represents
is a shooting game with logic puzzle -
mi and a detective plot.
And finally, some small comments
about the new version of CD-ROM from M.M.A. This
for the eighth time (w.08). Immediately it throws-
in the eyes - it’s significantly reduced -
a large number of programs in z.80, tap and
other perversions. Enlarged a bit
list of TRD programs. Significant
significant number of photographs from various
party and now you can say for sure who it is
who. Unfortunately, the selection of system programs
Ramm is no good at all. Practical
ki all systems of prehistoric versions, yes
and those from a set of programs that no one
uses. The question arises: “And the state itself
Does UnBEL!EVER use them? Yes
There is also a problem in PC programs. For example
WinRar 2.60 has long been Russified
new version. Programs for Amiga for some reason
marked two or even three times. Yes and
As for data archiving, this is
that MMA packages everything with WinRar, whiletime
how everyone has long switched to packaging
ACE (it packs better and unpacks
faster and does not cut long names). Put
The main side of the disk is the presence
albeit buggy, but a new emulator from
Lion17 version 034, UKV12f4, R80w021, Real
Spectrum (does not work on Cyrix). Special
a new emulator for
color GameBoy with Nerwous demo from
Fatality, Ray demo on BC and new emuls for
Commodore 64K with a bunch of demos.
CONCLUSION: The disk worked quite well
tan, has no close analogues. Recommended
everyone is sulking!
P.S.: At the end of last year - the beginning of this year
yes, I tried to repeat the MMA disc, but
for personal purposes. The selection included more
100Mb of Spectrum software collected for
6 years old and not available on that disk.
Many programs were brought by me personally
we from other cities and in Kovrov practice
were not widely distributed. In addition
another 100Mb was occupied by Amiga graphics. Was
high-quality selection of PC systems. Part
the source code from Fan#2 migrated there.
Burning to CD-ROM was supposed to produce
Kovrov company "ATIKA". After assurances
company that everything will be recorded, I am with
I was relieved to delete this information from my
th Winchester,because he was stuffed under
the beginning, but I still had to write
scientific article in a few days for co-
Chin conference. However, the company "ATIKA"
turned out to be a rather unscrupulous company
mine. And due to the negligence of its workers, everything
the data from this disk disappeared into oblivion. B
as a result of which I received from them only
verbal apology and practically lost
all Spectrum software. Some articles for
the magazine had to be rewritten,
Some of them will never be seen again. Issue
magazine was delayed by almost a quarter.
Therefore:KOVROVSKY USERS NEVER
DO NOT DEAL WITH ATIKA COMPANY IF
DO YOU WANT TO HAVE HEALTHY NERVES.
