We collected and sorted mainly German but also a lot of international diskmags on this CD. A complete list can be found in the list_eng.txt file or in the html documents. Also the time sortet chronology provides a good overview. This cd was created because nobody has done this before. A typical Scene CD like "Dreams 2" stores only a few diskmags but never a whole collection. That's why we created this archive. We needed a lot of time (several months) to sort the collection - we stored as many diskmags as possible on this CD. Then for every diskmag we added a picture, a description, and created the menu. And this because of Cream... For beginners we recommend the text files of the English mags.faq by Adok (main editor of Hugi). The Hugi diskmag is also one of the most relevant diskmags and can be executed directly from the CD. ++++-+++-++-+--+---+------+---------------------+------+---+--+-++-+++-++++ Charts ++++-+++-++-+--+---+------+---------------------+------+---+--+-++-+++-++++ The readers of many diskmags regularly take part in an opinion poll. The opinion poll creates a list of the top 10 demos, intros and of course the best diskmags. In the 15th issue of Worldcharts from December 2002 the following results were presented: 1. Pain 6. Static Line 2. Hugi 7. Wildmag 2. Chemical Reaction 8. Shine 4. Worldcharts 9. Budyn 5. Imphobia 10. Legend In addition to that, we recommend WildMag, TAP.MAG, Cream, Suicide, IMAgE, Mars, Skyline and Platinum for all German readers. We recommend Gutter, Blister, Fistful of Steel, Ooze, Beyond the Horizon and Trip 2 Hell for be- ginners who are interested in ansi magazines. Very interesting newsletters are Demojournal, Static Line, Trax Weekly and the Hugi Newsletter. ++++-+++-++-+--+---+------+---------------------+------+---+--+-++-+++-++++ Technical Problems ++++-+++-++-+--+---+------+---------------------+------+---+--+-++-+++-++++ OUT OF MEMORY: This is usually an EMS-Memory error message. Edit the config.sys and change or delete the tag NoEMS after the emm386.exe tag and reboot your system. WRONG SOUNDCARD: Copy the diskmag onto your hard disk, type attrib -r /s and then start it again. In some cases it is necessary that you run the diskmag with the parameter /setup or /c. If this doesn't work, try to delete the .cfg config file. WRITE PROTECTION: After you have copied the whole diskmag files onto your hard disk you have to remove the attributes of these files, i.e. type attrib -r /s. GUS: Some diskmags can only play music with the "Gravis Ultrasound" soundcard. If you don't have a GUS use the NoSound option of the maga- zine (if available) or just type '0' if recommended. VESA: If a diskmag shows you an entire list of graphic cards use the Vesa option. If this doesn't work, install UniVBE, which can be found in the tools directory of this CD, and try again. ZIP: Some diskmags contain special programs, source codes or a game which is attached in a zipped file. With one of the following programs you can unpack these files: PKUnzip, WinZip16 or WinZip32. RUNTIME ERROR 200: If this error occurs, the tools ctBPPat or TPPatch can fix the incompatible program files. Compressed files must be decompressed with UNP before. In each case the diskmag have to be copied on hard disc. EXIT: If Esc or the right mouse button doesn't work try Alt+X or F10. ++++-+++-++-+--+---+------+---------------------+------+---+--+-++-+++-++++ Copyright ++++-+++-++-+--+---+------+---------------------+------+---+--+-++-+++-++++ The responsible author for the original concept and the disk magazines collection is Thiemo 'mados' Maettig.
