In this small section we wanted
I would like to publish one letter with questions
to me (to IMPL), which were sent to us by Yala-
mov Sergey from Pavlograd!
And so, let's go:
1. How did you meet SPECTRUM?
The history of your SPECTRUM to the present
time?
Well, let's start in order. I met
SPECTRUM back at the end of 1989, but
you understand, I didn’t write right away
programs, magazine, etc. I, like everyone else, am
few people were fond of games, only
sometimes I dabbled in ART STUDIO, tried out
shaft to draw the first pictures. I will write
keep it short because history of my computer
ra is written in almost every DE-
MO written between 1995-1996.
So, I drew, by the way, it turned out well
it started, after that I wanted to make a game
ru type PINBALL, but in addition, how
poke pictures, I didn’t know anything else.
And this idea was postponed for many years in
my memory. Except for the pictures, I’m fine with you-
I learned BASIC, I even graduated from graphic
editor, though without a name, but although not,
it was called Alex v.1.8 (and I myself called
fell ONLYFORWARD, oh how many times have I pe-
renamed and difficult to count), also
I released a program in which...
whether there are simultaneously directories of floppy disks + to them
description (for games) + eternal lives, etc.
Released various logic logic in BASIC
games: sea battle, crosswords, lotteries. You-
launched dictionaries (English-Russian) in general
You won’t remember everything! Afterwards I met
with PatSoft, learned a little about machine
codes, I heard him play AY, after-
carved for himself, remade his car (Khar-
kovskiy var.) from 48K to 128K. After it
I burned out 10 times (this is described in detail -
sano in the intro to FLYSHARK, whoever wants I can
send), after I bought a PENTAGON board,
about 3 months I changed VG'shki (about
15 pcs.), the vile ones burned! Then everything seems to be
returned to normal, installed COVOX, through
It burned out for 4 months. Then the service disk drive
accidentally fell on the computer board and burned out
power supply, then burned out again, after
I took the power supply from PatSoft and until now
time I use it (it’s all the same to him)
but not needed, because purchased PENTIUM 100).
About 4 months later the monitor burned out,
so that I bought a new one, after the disk drive ba-
I was confused, I removed all the connectors and connected them
directly and so far everything is O.K.-O.B. True still
My keyboard has not changed since 1989, sa-
we can guess what state it is in
and what kind of keys it has! Well here it is
that's all.
2. Tell us more aboutREFLECTION.
Well, what can we say about this,
met PatSoft, a month later
put together a group, started writing software
we, after PatSoft became a parasite, I, like
I don’t know who, ran to him, asked him
did something after begging him
it became completely impossible, I began to do
alone, sometimes I called him, and then
started publishing a magazine!
3. What are you doing now, besides FAULTLESS?
At the moment, nothing, just not-
released 2 source discs a long time ago. And two
Coming Soon to the magazine!
There are two games in my plans: strategy and
entertaining. These plans will come true
if I don’t get drafted into the army (no matter how
April 14th will be 18 years old!).
4.What groups do you collaborate with?
In close contact with no one. And so almost
with everyone! (don't take it seriously)
5. Will there be changes in
FAULTLESS? If yes, which ones?
I don’t know what you meant. But post-
I'm glad to answer. Changes, interesting? Sco-
In total, only one measurement occurred
Nenia is what the journal is now I write
one (more + HELP ACTIVATOR), without JO-
KER (Why? It doesn't concern you.) Well
what changes could there be, menu me-
it happens every time, I think it’s notlabor-
but notice. And so everything seems to be. Natural-
Of course, as always there will be hidden keys,
this number is no exception. Attention
look at all the pictures that are just
is in the magazine, and I'm sure you'll notice-
those inscription: "Hidden key, etc." Go for it.
6.And now a slightly unusual question:
shi 3 BEST: toys, demos, boots (game
and workers), magazines, groups (ours (CIS) and
foreign), musicians, coders, artists,
SPECTRUMs (models).
Well, what an unusual question, here
Enough for half of China. Well, let's start in order.
Toys: AMMYTRIS,NEART EARTH,IKARI WAR.
Demos (I used to like them, now I don’t
I like none): UNREAL,REAL,SATISFAC-
TION.Boots: JC, boot by Inferno, boot by
FLASH inc. Magazines: none, just
there is something in them, some ideas! Groups, in-
It’s interesting how groups can like it,
only the product released
group (and seriously, only those who
who make high-quality programs about
thoughtful, and not a blunder, from a lantern!), music -
edgings: there are not 3 or 4 of them, but many, among them:
KSA, MADMAX, KURT, LAV, SLASH, TWIN S., IMP,
WAKSON, etc. Coders: only a few (and
just some of their effects).Artists:
DAV, SLY, AMIGO.SPECTRUM's (models): total
only one is PENTAGON 128K +....
7. Is it true that there are rumors about your st-
plant craze for PEPSI? PEPSI, ha ha ha, this is certainly cool, I'm be-
I certainly love this drink, but what kind
the idiot will refuse all of us transparent
a new, strong drink - vodka! This is the same
it’s just a sin, it warms, calms,
Now she does a lot of things. Well, here’s the thing:
measure, new year and 3 weeks after it
drink everything you have every day: brandy,
whiskey, gin, wine, champagne, vodka, self-
rut, etc. Smoke everything you can get your hands on
will fall. Well, what am I after this PEPSI-
MAN, guys, you offend me!
8. What do you think about the terrible and mysterious
Noah MAFIA and her godfather (read
JOKER) ?
Well, what can I think, MAFIA is it
MAFIA, I really don’t know what you’re doing here...
walked scary and mysterious, well, it’s not
important, absolutely nothing good
good and nothing bad. Let it remain
a mystery in history.
9. And finally, the traditional question. What
would you like to wish all spektrumists?
Well, you can’t wish everything for everyone. But in general, if
take it, good luck, good idea, success in
everyone and don’t despair if something goes wrong
turns out (there are no unresolved problems, I
I’m convinced of this). Well, what else, Spectrum is
of course good, but still, the computer -
This is a computer and you have to sit at it for a long time -
It’s not worth it. It’s better to turn on the magician with your love
my music for you, invite mefriends and you
drink 100 g for my health!
Yes, these are the questions we had this week:
suitable in the section. And you, if you want, then
send more questions: to me or to someone
or living in Kharkov, if possible
If you're sure you'll get an answer to them,
prostrate of our magazine.
I would like to write you a couple of jokes or
more precisely the questions that were asked to the buyer
Patels of computer programs on our website
bazaar.First question:Please let me-
that disk with TR-DOS. Second question: Give me
disk with applied medical programs
Mami. Third question: Write down the game for me:
"Fritz from Persia". These are the fools who drive -
on our market. If you have such
the same questions encountered in practice, or
similar stories, then send them too.
I would also like to give advice on writing
saniya programs. Here I am from my life-
experience. How I write a journal. First,
an idea comes around completely by chance, be it
over a cup of tea or on the subway, it doesn't matter
meaning, if I like her, I'm for her
I remember, then I work it all out on a piece of paper
paper, everything is very accurate, because there is interference
said 20 times, that’s for sure, number five
is no exception, all this leads to severe
consequences, you start looking for a mistake,
this takes a lot of time and effort. Better
do not rush anywhere, but slowly, slowly
figure it out. After that I
I start everything with a picture, and then the codes,
assembly and release.If thissmall ab-
zats will help you with something, then I will only-
I'm glad. I wish you good luck!
I would also like to address our people this way:
tell readers. If possible, if
you have time, then send a letter from-
answer to the questions: Which one do you prefer?
do you like the magazine? Why ? And in what
in a row you would arrange them (by age)
Tanya) ?
Well, that seems to be the end of this little
articles!
