¼1¢6               PACMAG #38¼0


¢1Welcome to ¢7PACMAG #38¢1! And for a change
we can't say, that nothing has happened
in the  ¢4Commodore¢1 saga because, as  you
probably all know by now, C=  has  been
bought  by the  multi-national  company
¢4Escom¢1, whose  Danish  boss is a  former
C= Scandinavia  employee!  Escom   will
continue  to manufacture the ¢4Amiga¢1, but
will also revive the C= PC!  The  plans
for   further  ¢4Amiga¢1 - development  are
very sketchy at the moment -  we  don't
know what will happen,  but  ¢4Escom¢1  has
made it clear, that  they'll  NOT  just
produce PC's and Power PC's like every-
body  else,  so  a  ¢4RISC-based    Amiga¢1
running  both  Amiga-software  and   PC
and MAC  software is  probably the  way
it'll go -  not bad  -  especially   if
¢4Escom¢1 continue to develop the wonderful
Amiga OS.  Well  enough said  about the
¢4Amiga¢1 - we're  probably all  happy that
the nightmare is over, and that ¢4Amiga's¢1
are  going  to  hit  the streets  soon.


BUT this is  ¢7PACMAG  ¢1- and  what do  we
have for  you this time?  Well we  have
the  usual  ¢4trader / board-charts¢1    of
course, and  ¢4game-reviews¢1  and   ¢4movie-
reviews¢1. We  also  have  an   interview
with  ¢4Devilstar¢1,  an   article    about
the   irritating   ¢4viruses¢1   destroying
lots  of  peoples  HD's, and  a look at
the many clichees  haunting the movies!
We've got  something  about ¢4CD-ROM¢1, and
an  Amiga-users  view on the Amiga  and
why it is such a wonderful machine, and
much more!¼1

     ¢4See Ya!
¼0¢8            And keep trading.

¢6   Want color in you ads..  ok this is how it works...
   there are 10 colors to choose among, they are :

¢0   0 is dark blue,  ¢1  1 is blue,  ¢2  2 is light blue  
¢3   3 is dark red,   ¢4  4 is red,   ¢5  5 is light red   
¢6   6 is pink,       ¢7  7 is green  ¢8  8 is light green 
¢9   9 is white... 

¢2   how to change color?..  you change colors with the use of : @  

   so in order to make a line go like this : ¢5C¢1o¢8l¢9o¢3r¢2 
              you would have to write this : @5C@1o@8l@9o@3r@2 
   the last >@2< was to get the color back to what it was when we began..

   in order to ¢6highlight¢2 some thing you would write : @6highlight@2

   ok!..  got the hang of it yet?... great!..

                       Devilstar VD/PB interview                         
¼1¢6       INTERVIEW WITH DEVILSTAR!
¢7¼0          ==========================================================¢1

Hello all, MeloManiac speaking! The super graphics-artist, Devilstar
has recently moved to Germany, to work on some games! I've talked to
Devilstar about that, the state of the Amiga, and more!

¢8D: Hi, I`m Devilstar/Virtual Dreams/Polka Brothers!

¢3M: You're one of the most known graphics artists on the scene - and even
   if there should be somebody who don't know you by your name, he has
   probably seen some of your work. Can you mention a few of the
   demos/magazines etc., you've done graphics for?

¢8D: Sure, well let me see.. There was for RAW/Spaceballs, Upstream/Balance,
   DanskToppen/Passion, The Off.Eurochart/Static Bytes(Estrup),
   Hydra/Mr.hyde/Prestige, Pacmag(hehe), The Party 94, And Demos/compos:
   DemonDownload/Silents DK, The ZINKO intro/Polka, No Name/Polka,
   Prestige Crackintro/Prestige, Bobble Trouble/Polka, Prey/Polka, and MANY
   Party Compos.. >:)


¢3M: I doubt that anyone wouldn't agree that you're extremely good at what
   you're doing, and creates some really interesting and beautiful pictures.
   Are people nicer to you, meaner to you, or is it the same, now you've
   become so popular?

¢8D: Well thats VERY different from dude to dude, some dudes call Bodycount
   to chat with me, and some comes to talk at partys, but also some dudes
   are very afraid to chat/talk with me, and even I try to be as incoming
   and try to get the talk to be easy. Humm just come and chat if I WANT!
   But also the gfx are more easy to get released now. When I started the
   gfx drawing it was VERY hard to get anybody to release my gfx, and I
   thought I should NEVER get any released, but after I got some of it
   in the TSL demos and some nice places at partys, everybody wants to
   release 'em >:)

¢3M: Recently, you've become so popular that a German software house has
   hired you to do the graphics for some games. How did you get the job?

¢8D: Humm that was kinda' Mr.Hydes fault (hehe. thanx mate!!). He called me
   and said that a Danish firm called Brain Bug where seeking for a new
   graphician. I called 'em, and talked about it, later on I got the job,
   BUT the firm Brain Bug were moving/merging to Germany/Rainbow Arts, I
   therefore had the choice of NO JOB or GERMANY :) .. and I can say NOW that
   I DIDN'T regret moving! OFCOZ I MISS all u guys and the board and all
   about Denmark, but I get money for doing my hobby and thats MY GOAL!



¢3M: You told me it was a nightmare doing graphics on a SNES, because of
   the way its screen is build up of blocks that can have a maximum of 16
   colours each. Would you prefer to work on the Amiga?

¢8D: Well it IS!!!! Well I WORK on AMIGA (ofcoz) but also on Mac, PC and
   Sillicon Gfx! Well the prob. is that if u do a BLOCK (everything HAVE
   to be blocks in the game projects) and if u do a blok of 8x8 pixels u can
   ONLY have 16 colors in it and that have to be out of 256 defined colors..
   SNES SUX BIG FUCKING TIME!!!!! :)

¢3M: What do you think about the state the Amiga's in at the moment. Would
   you like to see the Amiga as the leading computer on the games market
   again?

¢8D: OFCOZ I will, the Amiga is a great machine and I LOVE it!!

¢3M: I can imagine you're even more busy now, than you were when you were
   doing graphics for demos etc. Will you only do graphics for games
   from now on, or....?

¢8D: Well I'm VERY busy now and I have NO time for demos!! But I'll never stop
   demo-drawing - I just have to get installed here in Germany! And then I'll
   start demo-drawing for real again 100% !! :)


¢3M: When can we expect to see your Amiga-game hit the market - if there is
   one?

¢8D: Well thats VERY hard to say because the Amiga is dead to EVERYBODY else
   than US (scene freaks). Well I KNOW it's cruel words and I DONT THINK that
   the Amiga will die, BUT my BOSS does :(

¢3M: What's after Rainbow Arts? More graphic for games on the cards?

¢8D: Well I really don't know, I guess I'll stay here for a while till I get
   enough money to start my own DANISH company (game company ofcoz)
   or I'll go to USA for some firm overthere!! :) :)

¢3M: Many people in the scene has, like you, started making graphics/music or
   programming demos - what's your advice to them. Should they try to get
   in contact with some software-houses, or were you, no offence, just lucky,
   or had the right connections, to get into the business?

¢8D: Well that depends on where, and which firm, and still then, it's very
   different, I guess if u think u have the skill and WANTS to do games,
   then just send some stuff or even better GO THERE!!! :)



¢3M: Now you've tried both making graphics for demos and for games. Which is
   the most fun, and the most satisfying?

¢8D: It's more EASY and more FUN to do demo-gfx! BUT it's more satisfying
   with game-gfx COZ u get PAYED!!!!!!! heheeh....

¢3M: Yes, hehe, that's on of the big differences!;-) Can you make a living
   from doing games?

¢8D: Well haha.. I have a MERCEDES!!!!! heheheh.. so... :)))

¢3M: That should explain it!;-) So when are you coming back to Denmark?
   You have a board (BODYCOUNT) to run!;-)

¢8D: Well I guess I'll go to Denmark WHEN I got lotsa money to start my own
   softwarefirm!! Coz thats my GOAL!!!!

¢3M: Thank you Devilstar - it's been nice talking to you - and good luck on
   your games!

¢8D: Thanx pal!! Enjoy Denmark!! (I would, if I was there, sniff...) later!

                      Advice on VIRUS-protection                         
¢4========================== ¢7EVERY DAY A NEW VIRUS¢4 ==========================

¢1Warning! The file xxx contains a virus. These txt files are becoming more
and more common on the scene today. The past two months at least 10 new
viruses has hit the scene, leaving trashed HD's and pissed off people in
their trail. CED40.lha, LHA30.lha, DOPUS50.lha and ICOND13.lha just to
name a few of them. Assholes who call themselves Circle Of Power are behind
most of them and they have been traced to the sweedish scene where they
have managed to piss off quite a few people. The virus releases recently
seems to relate to a war that went on in the sweedish scene about 6-7
months ago. Some of you will remember a few txt files where a guy had made
it his hobby to hack BBS's and then format them. There were also made
statements about a crusade to 'clean the scene' and that is exactly what
seems to be going on now.
So how can I protect myself you ask? Is there any safe way to avoid
these HD trashers? The answer is no, you cannot protect yourself 100%
against a new virus, and right now they are appearing at a rate which no
anti-virus programmer can keep up with. But you can look for a few things
that would ring the alarm bell.

¢8FIRST OF ALL

¢3Is an archive full of shitty BBS adds and only one executeable with no
documentation, it almost certainly means trouble. NEVER EVER relay on a
program to do what the file_id.diz says it will do.
   If there is a documentation then look for the programmers name in it.

if there's no name then don't run the file, there're not many people who
would release a program without telling the user who made it and where to
send bug reports and shareware fees ect.

¢8SECONDLY

¢1Is the executable still crunched when you have unpacked the archive? If so,
then it's another sign that something is wrong. Not many programmers crunch
their executables before they realease them. Try to decrunch and load them
into a binary editor and have a look at them. You don't have to be a programmer
to discover some nasty surprises. Common sense is all you need.

¢8ICOND13.LHA

¢3   That was exactly the case with ICOND13.lha. The file_id.diz stated that
it would speed up MagicWB icons up by 50% when they were shown on Workbench.
The program should also remove any unwanted tooltypes such as
'»»»» Icon by Martin Huttenloher ««««'

¢1   When the file was unpacked you would discover one executable which was
crunched and a documentation written in Swedish with no name attached to it.
It's really rare to see a program released without a doc written in English.
   When the executable was decrunched and loaded into a binary editor for
a closer look, you would discover that in the buttom of the file the
following directories were mentioned: PREFS, C, DEVS, L and LIBS.


There are not many icons in the DEVS, L and LIBS dirs, most of you will agree
with me on that, and didn't all recently COP releases destroy exactly those
directories? In fact the file was a very nasty trojan which would remove the
pointer to the first datablock and rewrite a random number of files (50-100)
on your HD before it crashed the computer. That means that you had to reformat
the drive in order to get it to boot up again.

¢8THIRD AND LAST

¢3The archive name. CED40.lha and DOPUS50.lha, have you EVER seen major
updates of so popular programs wich over 90% of the scene uses, realeased as
LHA archives and with no major group name attached to it?
   No I bet you haven't, and thats just another sign that something could be
wrong.

¢8BOTTOM LINE

¢1    The ONLY way to be 100% safe is to ALWAYS keep a backup of your boot
partition, and it should be no more than 1 week old. I got my boot partition
destroyed by the cop virus found in the LHA30.lha archive, but fortunately
I had an 2 day old backup, so all I really lost was some updated database
files.
   If you think that backups is a hazzle and it takes too long time, takes too
many floppies ect., then just think (for 1 minute) about how it would be,


if suddenly your whole DEVS, L, LIBS, S and ENVARC were gone with the wind and
forever lost. Imagine how long time it would take for you to get hold of
everything again, and there's always something which you never will be able to
get hold of. Not very pleasent to think about, don't you agree?
    Recently warnings went out about DPAINT50, the install script would
format your harddrive, this shows that no file is safe and a backup is the
only thing that protects you 100%.

¢3There's no sign of these virus releases are coming to an end, the latest
txt files indicate that in the coming months, many new HD-trashers will hit
the scene. One can only hope that the people behind them eventually pisses off
so many people on the Swedish scene that this gets settled the hard way.
Until that happens, a backup is the only thing that will save ya ass!!!

¢1We all love the scene, and there's no reason for Circle Of Power to destroy
the fun for us.

                     An Amigalovers point of view                        
¢3¼0--------------------------------------
¢5¼1 10 years of Amiga
¢3¼0-----------------------¢1 The Freak ¢3----

¢4  In  1985  the  Amiga was released to
the  public.   Ah!   The  times.   Who
doesn't remember our astonishment when
we  saw  Defender of the Crow, DPaint,
Juggler  etc.?   Those  were the days.
Back  when,  the  Amiga  left everyone
stunned,  it simply knocked your socks
off.  That was ten years ago.  This is
now.

¢5  The  A1000  was the first Amiga, and
as  such  it  featured  Kickstart  1.0
(quickly  changed  to  1.1 as far as I
remember),  ECS chipset and a whopping
256Kram!   That's  one  quarter  of  a
megabyte.   And  still it multi-tasked
perfectly.

¢6  Ok,  I'll quickly add that Workbench
1.1  (or  1.2/1.3)  wasn't the best fo
systems  to  multi-task  in.   1.3 wasokay,  though.  I remember doing quite
a  bit  on the good old A500 (which is
now  sold  but is in good hands), with
only   1MB  of  Ram.   You  could  run
CLI-Master  and  CygnusED  at the same
time, and still have room for stuff in
the  RAM-disk.   Try that on an 8088XT
PC!   With  the  same  kind of graphic
interface.   No  can  do.  Anyway, the
sad  fact  is  that in these ten years
the PC has developed rather much.

¢7  Everywhere  you look it's Doom-this,
Descent-that,  Windows 99 or whatever.
I  don't  really  care.  The PC is now
the  best  console  around.  By saying
this  I  don't  look  down  on the pc.
It's  a compliment.  But it's also one
of  the  most  expensive consoles, and
soon  it's not even THAT good.  If you
saw  what  could  be  done  with a 300
pound   sterling  Sega  Saturn,  you'd
NEVER  buy  a  PC!   But of course you
would miss out on all the really great
adventure  games  the  pc  has.  I for
one,  would like to have a pc, just to

play all those neat adventure games.

  To  hell  with Doom and that shit, I
just want adventures ;-)

¢3  Anyway,  I've had Amigas since 1987,
and must say that it has become a part
of  me.   It  has  grown  on me, so to
speak.   Approx.  8 years of using the
Amiga  has given me hours of enjoyable
moments  (and not-so-enjoyable moments
when  something  was  wrong  with it).
Many  people  turn  on their computer,
play games on it, write their homework
on it etc.  and maybe even enjoy using
it.   Most  of  these  people  are  PC
owners.   What  I'm  getting at is the
fact that the term PC is wrong.

¢4  If a computer is personal, shouldn't
it    have   personality?    This   is
something  which  so-called  PCs lack!
They     are     just     clones    or
IBM-compatibles.   Wow.  But the Amiga
has  got  personality.   Bags  of  it,
actually.¢5  After thousands of hours in front of
Amigas,  I've discovered how much they
have  on  offer.  Today I don't see my
Amigas  as  computers.   I see them as
friends.   Yeah,  go  ahead, call me a
nut, but when I turn on my Amiga, I do
it  because I know it and it knows me.
It feels like a real friend.  Not that
I   haven't   got   any  real  friends
(sometimes I COULD do with a few less,
especially  when  I've  just  gotten a
cool  SNES  game  ;-),  but whenever I
feel  like I need some time on my own,
I turn on the Amiga, because she gives
me   the   opportunity  to  chat  with
friends  over the modem, write e-mail,
play  games,  make  music, mess around
with PD-utils, etc.

¢6  Well,  a PC could also do this, some
would argue.  This is, to some extent,
correct.   But  not with the same kind
of  style  and grace.  The whole Amiga
and  her  (ok, I AM a nut, refering to
my  computer  as  a  she!)  OS is like
swimming.   You  can  float around the


whole  system,  performing  stunts and
generally  feel  very  free and happy.
Using  a PC for the same stuff is much
the  same, only you're swimming with a
200kg  stone  tied  to you feets which
are tied together.

¢7  You don't believe me?  Oh yeah, well
then  tell me why my PC owning friends
STILL  sighs  for something as good as
Workbench.   As  a  friend  said:   'I
surely hope that we someday will get a
system  as  good  as System 7 (MAC) or
even as good as Workbench!'

¢3  8  years  ago  I  bought  my A500, I
remember  it like it was yesterday.  I
was  in seventh heaven, even more than
when  I  bought  my  C64!   All  those
colours!  The sound!  The sheer power!
Today I own an A2000 and an A4000/040.
The  A4000  has  14MB  RAM (which does
much  the  same  as  a 32MB PC ;-) and
CD-ROM.  Soon I will get myself a nice
Cybervision  GFX card, which is faster
and cheaper than the same kind of cardon pc.

¢5  I  have  never  regretted  bying  an
Amiga,   and  never  will.   We  Amiga
owners  have had a tough time the last
12  months, but now it seems to be all
over.   Escom  has  bought  the  whole
shebang, and while I don't wanna sound
overly  optimistic  I  feel  that they
have  the power and creativity to keep
the  Amiga  going,  and  perhaps  even
making   get  the  recognition  it  so
dearly  deserves.  I hope they put out
improved   Amiga  machines  and  would
especially  like  to  see a RISC-based
Amiga  with  customchips and of course
running   Kickstart/Workbench  4.0  as
well  as Windows (NT) and System 7.  I
know  it  can be done, the question is
whether or not it WILL be done.

¢4  There  are  several examples of just
how good the Amiga is, and I wish that
Escom   would   exploit  some  of  the
possibilities    by,   for   instance,
showing  some  of the great demos made

on  Amiga in tv-commercials.  They are
some  of  the best stuff made on Amiga
and  would show people that this Amiga
thing can easily match PCs and MACs.

¢6  I also hope that now that the Amigas
future   isn't   so   uncertain,   the
software  firms  will start supporting
it   again.    I   want   games   from
LucasArts,   Colonization,  Legend  of
Kyrandia  2,  more  CD-ROM  games etc.
Let's  see what the next 10 years will
bring.  Many people have abandoned the
Amiga  ship  and  bought a PC.  That's
their  fault.  I don't know about you,
but I'm sticking around.

¢2  Commodore  is  dead.   Long live the
Amiga!

                            CD-ROM on Amiga                              
¢3¼0--------------------------------------
¢5¼1   The wonders of
       CD-ROM
¢3¼0-----------------------¢1 The Freak ¢3----

¢3  It  was  getting on my nerves.  That
sucker  who  goes by the name of Enzo,
had  been  talking my ear off, expres-
sing  how  wonderful  a CD-Rom was.  I
had  never  really  thought much about
get-  ting one, even though Melomaniac
had  been  raving  about  it too.  But
then   I   ordered  the  CD-collection
containing  every  SNES  game released
until  January  1995,  and then it was
time to get a CD-ROM.

¢4  I  wanted  it  to reside in my A4000
but  since  I  didn't have a SCSI con-
troller  that  gave  me a problem.  At
least  until  I  found  a CD-kit which
incl.   a  new E-IDE controller plus a
Quad  speed  (4x) CD-drive.  Well that
was  the  solution, I could put my twoHDs  and  the  CD-ROM  on the internal
controller,   leaving  precious  Zorro
slots  available  for  my  soon-to-be-
purchased  Cybervision  64 gfx car and
whatever  else  I  might come up with.
After having experienced my usual luck
(the   company   forgetting  a  cable,
having  to  wait  a  day  more etc.) I
finally installed the drive and got it
up and running.

¢5  The  manual  had  been somewhat con-
fusing,  actually  it  even mixed some
things  up,  meaning  that I had to do
the  opposite of what was written!  Oh
well  that's  life  for  you.  But the
software installation went without any
problems, and soon I had installed two
programs:.

¢2SpeedUp  -  the  software that patched
the  OS  to recognize the new enhanced
IDE  interface.   It has to be run, or
you  will only be able to used some of
the  connected  drives.  You only need
to   run  it  once,  it  will  survive

resets.

¢3AmiCDFS  - The CD-Rom filesystem.  The
version supplied only supports the ISO
9600  standard,  but  since  most  CDs
worth  you  interest is in this format
(I think) it's not much of a problem.

¢6  I had been smart enough to make sure
I   had  some  CDs  to  check  out  if
everything  worked ok.  The Aminet Set
1  had  arrived  the day before, and I
had  no  problems using it.  That made
it very clear to me.  CD-rom ROCKS!

¢7  Being  able to access something like
650MB  on  a  single CD meant 1000s of
programs and that almost made me a bit
dizzy.    Wow!    Programs,   LOTS  of
programs!  Later on I got hold of a CD
with  fonts,  and  I was once again in
heaven.   1165 files with fonts really
warmed my little DtP heart.

¢8  Basically,  what  I'm saying is that
CD-Rom is a VERY good buy.  If you areinto  lots  of programs, samples, pic-
tures,  games,  3d-objects,  textures,
fonts,  or  whatever  -  well then you
need  a  CD-Rom!   Of  course  there's
always the possibility of playing CD32
games,  but only a few are really that
much  better  than  their  A1200/A4000
counterpart,   so   that's   not   the
important thing.

Still  not  convinced?   Did I mention
all  the  CDs with XXX-rated pictures?
That should do it....  hehe...

¢5  Short:   Go get a CD-Rom.  You won't
regret it.

                      Directory Opus 5.0 review                          
¢3¼0--------------------------------------
¢5¼1Directory Opus 5.0
¢3¼0--------------------------------------
¢8Disks: 1           HD: YES
Archive Name: DVN-OPUS.DMS
¢3¼0-----------------------¢1 The Freak ¢3----

¢3  Finally  it  arrived.  Finally we've
got  the  new  Directory Opus.  Seldom
does a program cause so much eagerness
but I guess that the fact that DOpus 4
was  one  of the most used programs on
Amiga, made people very anxious to see
what could have been improved upon.

¢4  I  myself  had  been  using  DOpus 4
until  I  saw the light in the form of
Browser  II.  Browser introduced me to
a  whole  new concept, namely internal
multi-tasking.   But  that wasn't all.
You  could  also have more than 2 dirs
active  so when you where copying some
files  you  weren't stuck to watch the
boring  progress  indicator, oh no you
could go on using the program, for in-stance  you could start unpacking some
of  the  files you'd just dl'd.  This,
combined  with  a  large  increase  in
speed, made me change to Browser.

¢5  Previews  of  DOpus  5 showed a pro-
gram which beared many resemblances to
browser, multiple windows and internal
multi-tasking,  but still it seemed to
maintain  the  good old look of DOpus.
Even though I favoured Browser I still
liked  the  look of DOpus, and many PC
owners  visiting me had given the prg.
a  very jealous look, complaining that
nothing  like  that  was  available on
their  machine.   Well,  I have seen a
program  running  on  OS/2  Warp which
looks and functions very much like our
beloved DOpus, it is even mentioned in
the manual.  When I changed to Browser
they  couldn't  understand  why,  even
though  I demonstrated Browsers advan-
tages,  they complained about the lack
of  buttons  and  more  GUI.  Funnily,
that  was  also  the  reaction of many
Amiga owners running DOpus.

¢6  But  now  DOpus  5 is here, and even
though  most  of you have probably al-
ready  tried it I'll still give you MY
opinion of it.  It's...  a bit better.
There.    I've   said  it.   DOpus  IS
better,  but  not  enormously  better.
Here's what it's all about:

¢7  We've  got  the  much wanted (by me)
internal  multi-tasking, but not 100%.
I mean, when I copy something to a dir
I  have  to open a new window with the
same  dir,  to  perform actions in it.
In  Browser  I could go on in the same
window,  but  perhaps that's something
to be implemented in later versions of
DOpus.

  We  DO have multiple dirs, thank God
for  that.   That is what make DOpus a
bit  better.   We  have  also got full
support   of   datatypes  and  locale.
Something  which  DOpus really needed,
at  least in my opinion.  But ok, if I
were  to  decide,  ALL programs should
support  locale and datatypes.  Beforethose  of  you  who haven't tried/seen
DOpus  5  starts to complain, here's a
brief description of the new things:

¢31.   Multiple  Windows.   Each dir can
have  a window of it's own, ie you can
open  as  many  windows  as  you like.
Furthermore,  each  window  has  a set
user-definable  set  of buttons on the
top  of  it.   Actually each window is
refered  to  as  a  LISTER, dunno why!
These  buttons actually quite nice.  I
mean,  you have them very close to the
pointer  at any given time, saving you
precious time.  I didn't think I would
find  them  very  useful, but they are
not  really  bad  to  have.   Besides,
there  is  already  some  really  nice
Magic-WB  like  buttons available, and
using  them  improves  the  look quite
much.   The  buttons  can  perform any
action you want.

¢42.    Internal  multi-tasking.   Well,
it's  needed  to  get  anything out of
being  able  to  have  more  than  one


window.   Basically it means than when
you  have  started  copying  400 files
from  one HD to another, you can go on
doing  something  else to another dir.
Sounds  like nothing special, but once
you've   tried   it,  you  can't  live
without it.

¢53.  Buttons, actually a great whopping
lot of them!  Almost everything is now
buttons,  but  the  neat thing is that
you  can  decide  if  they should show
text  or a graphical representation of
the button's action.  It's easy enough
to design new buttons, and each set of
buttons  has  it's  own window, and of
course  you  can  place them whereever
you  want  and  snapshot  it all.  The
same   goes  for  all  windows,  sorry
listers (hehe).

¢64.   Workbench  replacement.   You can
make  DOpus  5  replace you Workbench.
Since  DOpus  shows  all icons on it's
screen  (even  appicons) you could run
everything from DOpus.  In theory thisis  a  great  idea, but in practice it
doesn't  always work so well.  I tried
it,   but  unfortunately  some  of  my
commodities   had  problems  with  it.
ARC-Handler   and  ToolsDaemon  caused
problems,  and  I can not live without
any  of  them,  so  I  returned to the
normal  way  -  starting  the  program
iconified.   But hey, at least you can
have  a  backdrop  pattern or picture,
just like on your WB ;-)

¢35.   Datatype support.  Only for users
of Kickstart/Workbench 3.x, but it's a
very  welcome  addition.  Not everyone
find  it  easy to define a filetype so
using datatypes makes it easier.

¢46.  Locale support.  This mean that we
could  end  of with a swedish, danish,
french, german, or polish version!  No
problem    here.    A   great   thing,
something  which  is  ALWAYS  welcome.
Some  people  hate running software in
any  other  language than english, but
do  they  mind if a program is ABLE to

run in other languages?  I don't think
so.

¢5  Well that's about it.  I've told you
what I think of the program, and given
you some more detailed info.  Now it's
time  for  the big question.  Do I use
it  myself?   The answer is:  Yes.  So
far  I  do.   But  that doesn't mean I
have  deleted  Browser,  I'm still not
fully  convinced.   But  DOpus  5 does
have  some nice things, it looks great
(the  PC  owners  are  once again sad,
knowing that they will never see it on
their  machine), and it is MUCH faster
than DOpus 4.  DOpus 4 was kinda slow,
but DOpus 5 runs at a very respectable
speed.  Nice start Jonathan, now let's
make  it the powerhouse we all dreamed
about!

¢6BTW:  A lot of people reports problems
running  DOpus 5, they talk of strange
crashes   happening  quite  often.   I
don't  really  know  much about it, it
never  crashed  on me.  I'm running iton an Amiga 4000/040 with KS/WB 3.1.

And now for something very unuseal. A
Lemmings-clone, or what??? Well, the
game starts out with a little history
about how the earth has been flooded,
and how a little fish-culture decides
to resque the human race.. So far, so
good.. 

¢7The you enter the mainscreen, where you
can select different things like, music
on/off, start level etc..

¢3Ok then.. Let's start the game.. Ahh..
Ready.. Looks like fish!!.. Ahh.. I
wonder what this button does.. Groovy..
The fish morphs into a torpedo.. Cute,
but what now??.. Let's try this one
then.. Ahh.. The fish i just clicked
on, starts to swim to the top of this
weird tubesystem.. Arg.. It's beeing¢2sucked into somekind'a sucking device..
WOW.. Strange.. Wonder if that fish
died.. Think it was called Dave.. Ups,
no.. There it is.. Now it's walking on
some table, on which the entire tube-
system is placed.. Ahh.. There's
another tube.. WOnder how i'll get the
fish into that one.. Perhaps this
spring can do something.. Wups..
Jumping fish.. OK then.. Ahh.. That
must be the exit.. Yeah, and then up
there, and yep.. Just finished the
first level.. 

¢6Well.. This game is just like Lemmings,
but with fish instead.. And thiese fish
can obviously also do the walking
thing.. And there is some buttons you
have to push in order to start some
air-streams that can take your fishes
up or down..And that's about it..

¢7This game simply dosn't have what it
takes, to keep you in front of your
monitor more than half an hour.. Or
what?? If u loved and adored Lemmings,

this fishy game might just do the
same..

                       High Seas Trader review                           
¼0¢2---------------------------------------
¼1¢5   High Seas Trader
¼0¢2----------------------------- ¢9Mickey ¢2--

High Seas Trader reminds me quite a lot
of the old game Pirates, except for the
fact that HST has better graphics and a
more sophisticated gameplay.

¢6The installer for this game is somewhat
different from the usual C= installer,
and that's quite a shame, since you
have to undms the entire archieve to
disk, instead of using RAD, as I
normally do.

¢3You start this game by chosing your
nationality, your name and the name of
your ship. Then you start out in town
where you can hire crew, buy charts,
equip your ship and so on. And you of
course also leave for the high seas,
and do some trading. ¢7On your way around the world, you'll
find out that you do not know all the
seas you can travel in, so you might
wanna buy a chart, or perhaps hire a
chartmaker to do a chart for you. 

¢8You have a couple of ways to make
money. You can help the pretty ladies
you can find in the towns, by taking
them and there stuff to a certain town,
or you can do some trading between the
towns.

¢2When you travel between the many towns
you might just bump into some of you
enemies, and then you will of course
have to deal with them the hard way.

¢5Unfortunately I didn't have so much
time to play this game, so there is
probably a lot of facets to this game,
that still needs to be examined, but if
you are into strategi, or you simply
Loved pirates, then this game is
definately worth wasting your time on.

¢3  Ok, this is an Amos game, but do not
let  that  fool you!  I was very skep-
tic  too,  but  since Hellfire usually
release ok stuff I tried to dl it.

¢4  The  game  is  very  simple, but not
excactly  for  the  sensitive type!  I
mean  the game is about killing people
by  running over them with a bulldozer
and  throwing  handgrenades  at  them.
But  for  us who don't give a damn the
game  is  nothing  short  of extremely
amusing.

¢5  Anyway,   you  control  this  little
happy  fella  who drives around in his
nice little bulldozer.  The scenery is
a  soccer  field,  I think it has someconnection  to  the  (hm) plot which I
remember  to  be something about crowd
control  (let's see THIS kind of crowd
control  in  the  real world!).  There
are 3 types of people to kill:

¢3     Walking people. Just run over
     them, and they die. They leave
     something behind which can be
     both good and bad.

¢4     Parachuting people. Lob them a
     grenade, and they're done.

¢5     Motorcycling people. Beware of
     these. Running over them drains
     your energy. Better get rid of 'em
     by throwing them a pineapple.

¢6  As  told,  the dead people sometimes
leave behind a goodie in the form of a
football.   Depending on the colour of
the  football,  you  get  more energy,
more  grenades,  all  people  die etc.
After  having  killed  a few people, a
door appears, and you have to run into


to it as quickly as possible, in order
to proceed to the next stage.

¢7  Sounds  dull?   Well it ISN'T!  It's
actually  very  amusing.  The graphics
are  quite  ok,  nothing  special  but
adequate,  and  the sounds is also ok.
But first and foremost the gameplay is
good,  clean  FUN.   That's  why I can
only  recommend  this game.  It is btw
shareware,  and  the  fee is a lousy 5
pound  sterling  which  gives  you the
source  code  (if you want it) and all
the  author's  previous work.  Quite a
good  deal,  and  the  programmer cer-
tainly  deserves  to do well, since he
is obviously quite skilled.

¢5¼1  CONSOLE CORNER!
¢3¼0-----------------------¢1 The Freak ¢3----

¢4  Welcome  to  yet  another edition of
the Console Corner.  The summer is ra-
pidly  approaching,  and  we  all know
that  the  result is fever games.  But
even though this month has been rather
quiet,  the  few  games  released have
been  of  good  quality.  I mean, just
check out the Super Bomberman 3 review
and you will see for yourself.

¢5  This  month  also  brought  us a new
Konami  release,  and  their games are
ALWAYS  welcome!   Mostly because they
release  quality stuff.  Go to the re-
view  to  find out whether or not they
can keep up the good work.

¢6  Even though the SNES already has the
perfect  soccer  game, Int.  Superstar
Soccer  (Perfect  Eleven) a new soccer
saw the light this month.  The name iseither  Head-On  Soccer or Fever Pitch
Soccer,  it seems like the game cannot
decide for itself.  I must say that my
expectations  weren't  very  high  but
only  by checking the review, will you
be  able  to  find  out  if it's worth
getting.

¢7  For  the  racing freaks we got Super
Drift  Out,  an  overhead racing game.
It is actually some kind of rally, but
do  not  hold  that  against the game.
It's   a   bit   different  from  your
standard  overhead  racing game, since
the  screen  rotates  instead  of your
car.   Read  the  careful review to be
enlightened!

¢4  Rumours  have it that Ultra, the new
machine   from   Nintendo,   will   be
released  this autumn.  I got to admit
that I am looking very much forward to
it,  coz  I  just KNOW that it will be
something  special.  It HAS to be, and
Nintendo  knows  it.   Ok,  you  and I
won't be able to get one until about a

year (mainly because they are going to
sell like F*CKING hotcakes!), but I am
very eager to see what it will be able
to do.  Ah well, you can always dream.

¢5  I've  just bought myself a brand new
copier,  a  Super  Wildcard  DX  32Mb,
mostly  because  I'm  selling the good
old  Double  Profighter  to  a guy who
needs to be able to run Sega stuff.  I
am  still  waiting  for  it to arrive,
along  with  my  CDs with the complete
collection  of  SNES  games.   If  you
think I'm looking forward to that, you
are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!

¢6  That's  it for the introduction, now
go  on  and read the reviews.  See you
next month, or...
...   If you happen to own a snes, but
cannot  decide if it's worth it to buy
a  copier, you could always meet me at
the  South  Sealand  Party  and  get a
demonstration.    I'm  sure  you  will
agree  on  the fact that a copier is a
most excellent investment.

¢2'NO PATCH ON PERFECT ELEVEN?'

¢3  Another  soccer game sees the light.
How do they think they can top Perfect
Eleven?    They've   got   a   serious
attitude  problem.  And seeing as this
is  from U.S.  Gold (who isn't the one
releasing  all the great titles), this
game is almost dead on arrival.

¢4  Upon  loading it seems quite normal.
You  can  play a tournament or exhibi-
tion.   You  can  play up to 4 players
(yeah!) and there lots of teams!  Much
more  than  Perfect  Eleven.  But what
about the game itself?

¢2'HMMMMMMMM...'

¢5  -  was  what  my friend said when hefirst  saw  the game.  ¢4'I don't like
the isometric 3d-view'¢5.  I explained
to  him  that it really wasn't so bad,
and  soon  after  he agreed.  You see,
Head-On  Soccer  turned  out  to  be a
pretty  good soccer game, and while it
isn't better than Perfect Eleven, it's
really   a   very  nice  game,  mostly
because  of  one  nice feature, namely
the  feature  which  gives each player
very different abilities.

¢2'I CAN DO...'

¢6  Some  players  have a star over over
their  head.  This indicates that they
are...   star  players!  Some are more
'star'  than others, since some of the
players  have  special skills.  I like
one  of  the  german players who could
kick  like  hell!   Pass  the midfield
with   him,  and  you  could  use  his
special  power,  or rather unleash it.
It's a monster of a kick, so much that
the  ball  catches fire!  I was pretty
surprised the first time I experienced

it but boy, is it fun or what!

  There  are, however, some sad things
connected   with  this  feature.   You
would be surprised how bad some of the
players are, some can't even do a long
pass  without  fumbling.  But the good
players more than make up for this, so
all is not lost.

¢2'A-OK, AN NOT 2 BAD!'

¢7  All in all, Head-On Soccer (or Fever
Pitch Soccer, how should I know) isn't
gonna outpass Perfect Eleven.  But the
question is:  Does it have to?

¢3  For  some  mysterious  reason,  some
people   actually  disliked  P11,  and
found  FIFA  International more enjoy-
able.  Well, this game is what I think
FIFA  should  be like:  Fast, but easy
to  get  into,  easy  to get into, but
still  possibility  of  doing  awesome
stuff.   Just play against Brazil, and
you'd  see some stunning goals!  Theseguys  know how to play ball.  Actually
they  are way to skilled, but what the
heck,  it's  only  a  game  after all.
Anyway,  like  all  other games, you'd
still be better off playing 2 or more.
It'll   make   the   game   much  more
enjoyable.

¢4  What  more  can  I  say?  It's not a
spectacular  game, more like a 'rather
ok  game'  Oh,  put a sock in it.  The
game  is  fun, so just go and download
it or maybe even buy it.  Great stuff.

                         Metal Warriors review

¢4Title:¢3 Metal Warriors
¢5By   :¢3 Konami (yeah!)
¢6Size :¢3 16Mbit

¢2'BIG K IN THE HOUSE!'

¢3  Well Konami's surely one of the most
rocking  games  manufacturers, I mean,
they  have  released a lot of high, if
EXTREMELY high-quality games.  Who can
fault  Perfect  Eleven?  Only heathens
fails to love the game!  Anyway, when-
ever  Konami  releases a game, you can
be sure that people will dl it.

  This  time  they have teemed up with
none  other than LucasArts!  Quite why
they  have  done  this  I  don't know.
They  could easily sell the game using
their  own  name.   Of course the game
would have to be good, and even Konami
can't release all-good games.¢2'BIG IS BEAUTIFUL YOU KNOW'

¢5  It  sure  is,  and  big pays a large
(didn't  wanna say big again!) role in
this  game.  The plot itself is fairly
boring,  you are in a team of wanna-be
heros  who  are  on the good side in a
war.   The  intro  is  very  nice  and
stuff, but the intro on Super Turrican
2 was much better.  Oh well.  It's not
all  intros, there's also a game to be
played.

  I  mentioned that there is something
BIG  in  this  game.  The big thing is
you  or  rather,  your Metal Warriors.
The metal warriors are giant robots in
which  your  character  resides.  They
are  about  12  metres  high  (approx.
according to my eye and in relation to
the  size of the humans) and there are
more  than one type of metal warriors.
They  each  have different skills, and
some of them are actually rather neat.

¢2'BIG DEAL!'

¢6  Ok,  ok.   What you have to do is to
complete  different missions.  You are
briefed  before  each mission and then
thrown  into  the  action.  In mission
one  you  have  to  get  in  an  enemy
building,   find   one  of  ours  (I'm
already  into  the  game's spirit) and
scramble  as  quickly as possible.  It
may  sound like you could be wandering
around  for  hours, and you could - if
you'd  survive.   But  fortunately you
can  bring  up  a  map which shows the
building's   lay-out   (sketched,   no
detail  here)  and  it  even shows you
roughly  where  you  should  go, using
that neat little thing called an arrow
(boy,  what  these Konami guys come up
with!).

  Ok,  so how do we get around in this
big  fella?  It's easy.  Your standard
metal  warrior  can fly, others can't.
Of  course you have a nice laser which
can  be fired in almost any direction.But  since your robot functions like a
large  person,  you  can  also do some
fighting  stuff,  yup  your  robot can
slash  the  enemy with a sword.  Or at
least  THIS  robot  can.   Some robots
can't.   But  all  robots  can pick up
some  of  the nice things lying around
the  stages.   There are better weapon
to  be  had,  more  energy  etc.  Now,
there's a funny thing connected to the
energy in this game.

¢2'WHAT? NO INFO? AM I DEAD?'

¢3  Normally   you  have  some  sort  of
energy  bar  to show when you're gonna
die.  But not in this game.  So how do
you know when it's time to die (I just
love  saying  that  since it's my fave
frase   from   Blade   Runner   and...
whoops, got carried away!)?  Just look
at  the  robot.   It  goes  from being
bright and colourful to grey and dull,
and  when  the  end  is near you can't
fire  any  weapon,  and  smoke evolves
from  the robot's head.  This is kinda


imprecise,   but   it  doesn't  really
detract  from the otherwise cool game.
But  what is it that is cool about it?
You  just  wander  around  in  a large
robot, shooting and rescueing etc.

¢2'BIIIG MISTAKE!'

¢4  There's  much  more to this game.  I
mentioned other robots.  What I didn't
mention,  is  the ability to climb out
of  your  robot.   You  can  make your
little character jump out of the large
'suit'  and  jump into an empty shell.
But  beware!   When  you  abandon  you
robot,  an  enemy  could  come running
into  the  picture  and climb into it,
and   then   you're   the  little  guy
(literally).   It  doesn't  take  many
shots  from  the  big guys before your
character    dies.    But   at   least
maneuvering  the  little guy is faster
than the big guys.

  But let's imagine you do make it to
another  robot.   You  then climb intoit,  and hey presto!  New weapons, new
skills  etc.   Like  the  robot on the
second  (or  was that the third?  I've
reviewed  too  many games this month!)
level  where you can enter that really
nice  robot  with  a  f*cking  awesome
machine   gun.   Kinda  like  the  one
Arnold  uses  in  T2.  Talk about fun!
Just  walk  (coz  the  guy  can't fly,
arg!) around and blast the little guys
and  some  big  guys,  tonnes  of fun.
Alas,  this  is  not  all that is cool
about this game (sorry).

¢2'YOU WANT BIG? YOU GOT IT!'

¢5  In  one  of the missions you have to
make sure that a ships reactors aren't
smashed,  coz  your  leaders  need the
ship   so  you  have  to  protect  the
reactors  with your life, something of
a   task   when  the  evil  guys  come
swarming  like  bees!   But  with full
energy and a couple of missiles you'll
be  laughing!  You then have to fly to
the cockpit, jump out of the robot and

shoot    the    pilots.     Neat   and
movie-like.   And  that's not even the
funniest  level.   I  like  the  level
where  you  have  to  smash  a  ship's
defence (of which there are a LOT) get
in  it,  kill the pilots, and then fly
the  ship into the bay!  This is where
you  will get BIG.  The ship is WAY to
big  to fit the screen, so it's a kind
of  majestic feeling when you put ship
back in place.

  Speaking  of  movie-like,  the whole
game  does  play  like  a story.  This
makes  it more exciting and I must say
that  I  got  rather involved with the
game.   Right  now I'm having a bit of
trouble with a certain stage where you
have   to   defend  one  of  your  big
starships.   It's  f*cking  hard, even
with  the  ultra-tough  robot you got.
But  a  game SHOULD be challenging, so
this is a good thing.

¢6  If  you are still not convinced that
this  is  your type of game you can goand  download  it  anyway.   You  see,
there's  also  a  nice  2-player  mode
included.   You  choose your favourite
robot, a stage, and you're both off to
seek  and destroy.  Although there are
better  2-player games than this, it's
a  good  thing  Konami  included  this
feature.   Now if only they would make
a   Perfect  Eleven  2  with  4-player
possibility,  lots  of ENGLISH speech,
and..  oh well, I guess I just have to
play  this  one  until the next Konami
game  comes along.  And you know what?
I really don't mind.

¢2'BORN TO BE WIIIIIIIILD!'

¢3  Racing games are long between on the
SNES  so  then  this  appeared,  I was
quite  excited.   24Mbit meant that it
could  be  a really whopper of a game.
So  naturally I quickly loaded it, and
here is what came out of it.

¢4  After   loading  the  game  you  are
greeted  with  an ok intro, which sets
the   atmosphere  quite  nicely.   The
music  and graphics looked fine, so my
expectations  rose.  I quickly pressed
start on the Single Race option, and I
was  able to equip my car in the Speed
Shop   (how's  that  for  an  original
name!?).    There   were  better  Fuel
Systems, new tires, more nitros (which
gives you a boost when you're racing),and  you  could also change the number
of  your  car  (wow,  TRENDYYYY).  The
graphics were still cool and slick, so
I  repeated  the  success  and pressed
start  once  again.  I was then thrown
to  another  place,  namely the racing
court.

¢6  It  looked  fairly  similar to some-
thing  I'd seen before.  Yes, the view
was  your  bog-standard behind the ve-
hicle  view.   But  initially  the gfx
seemed  ok  -  that was until it began
moving.  Oh dear.  Oh dear, oh dear!

¢2'LAME'

¢5  This  game was lame, I thought.  But
I wanted to give it a try, coz perhaps
I  was  just  scratching  the surface.
But no.  After playing it a couple (8)
of    times,   I've   discovered   the
following about the game:

¢61. It's slow and ugly.
2. It's boring to play.


3. It's waaaay too easy.
4. It's utter crap and not very good!

¢4  Therefore I won't waste more time on
this review, so take it away!

¢2'NOT AGAIN!'

¢3  Just  when  you thought that nothing
could  be added to an otherwise excel-
lent  game  (Super Bomberman 2), a new
version  appears.   Oh dear, it's just
more  of the same.  Most of us already
know  the  game in it's Amiga version,
namely   Dynablaster.   Unfortunately,
the  follow-up  was  only  released on
SNES  and Sega, but I don't care since
I've got a SNES.  For those of you who
cannot  remember  Dynablaster,  it's a
nice  game  where you control a little
fellow  who put bombs around the whole
place.   Actually not, but you have to
put  the bombs so they blow up all the
nasty  meanies (the cutest looking you
have  ever  seen).  Once done, proceed
to next level.¢4  But  what  made  the game completely
mindblowing  was  the two-player mode!
Come  to  think  of it, you could even
play FOUR (with an adaptor).  Then you
could  walk  around  and  try to sneak
your  (former-to-be)  pals into a bomb
while  fumbling  yourself  into one of
your own bombs.  The game is hilarious
with two or more people.

¢2'SNES TIME'

¢5  The SNES Super Bomberman 2 did a lot
to   improve  an  otherwise  brilliant
game,  and  I  must say they succeded.
It  was  one  of  my best multi-player
game,   at  least  until  Bomberman  3
appeared.   Now my life evolves around
that   game!    It's  fantastic  as  a
one-player  game, bags of playability,
great  funky  music and sound effects,
combined  with cute graphics, but play
it  with  2, 3, 4, or FIVE people, and
the hours whizz by!  I had invited two
friends to play it, and since they are
both     avid    game-players,    they

represented   a  fair  challenge.   We
started playing around 12.

¢2'AIE! GET AWAY! SH*T!'

¢6  Hours went by, only they seemed like
minutes.   We explored all the stages,
and  quickly found our fave stage, the
stage  with  leap pads.  Put a bomb on
one  end,  and  jump  on  the  other -
result:   a flying bomb, landing right
next  to your (former) friend!  Tonnes
of  laughs!   This  game ROCKED!  Once
again  we were going insane because of
the music, the enormous bomb power-ups
one  could collect, the suprises, just
about  everything kept us going, right
until  21:30!   Then  we had a bite to
eat, and continued to around midnight.
After they left the house I sneaked in
a few one-player games...  geez, I was
stunned.

¢2'SO WHAT'S NEW?'

¢3  Super  Bomberman  doesn't  game  youTHAT  much new.  But there's more than
enough!  Before, when you were playing
the 2+ player game, the characters you
controlled  looked  pretty  much  like
eachother, the only difference was the
colour of their suit.  Now it's a dif-
ferent  story.  You can choose between
8  players, each differing quite dras-
tically  in  looks, so this time there
will  be  no 'Shit I thought I was the
other one!' Apart from that, there are
some  great new stages, some where you
can ride in a mine trolley, experience
an  exploding volcano, water, bridges,
underwater  levels  etc.  You can also
get  a  bit  of  help in the form of a
bunny!  Find an egg, crack it, and you
can  mount a cute bunny/kangaroo look-
a-like!   It will function as a shield
and  protect  you against a bomb or an
enemy.   You  want  more?   What about
more  sophisticated enemies, some that
eats  your  bombs, fly, jump, dies and
resurrect themselves, you name it, the
game has got it!


¢4  Oh,  I  forgot  to mention the great
tag-team  matches!   Two  people could
team  up  against  two  other  people!
Believe  me  when I tell you that this
game  is  too  good to be missed!  You
simply NEED this game, whether you got
a  copier  or not, just go and GET it!
F*CKING AWESOME STUFF!  'nuff said.

¢6Size :¢3 16Mbit

¢2'RACE IN YOUR FACE'

¢3  As you may have discovered, there is
another SNES racing game on trial this
month.   I could save you from reading
the  review  of  the  other  by saying
that...   this  is  the one to get, if
you  wanna  race  on  your SNES.  It's
better.  But how much better, and why?

¢4  Super   Drift   Out   looks   rather
ordinary  when you first glance at it.
And  right  after  you have loaded the
game, you are greeted with commercials
for  Toyota  etc.   I promptly thought
that  this  is one of those games that
lives on a well-known name, but I must
admit  that  the game turned out to be
pretty ok.¢2'NEWS? WE DON'T NEED ANY NEWS!'

¢6  That's  good  for  you,  because SDO
doesn't  really  offer  that much new.
The   game  is  a  rallye/racing  game
viewed from overhead.  Haven't we seen
this  somewhere before?  Yes, we have.
There  is,  however,  one  thing  that
makes  it stand out from your ordinary
Amiga/PC  game.   Instead  of rotation
the  car  when  you  make  turns,  the
screen  rotates.   This does take some
getting  used  to, but in the end it's
not that hard to live with.  Makes the
game a bit refreshing.

¢2'REMINDS ME OF...'

¢5  Erm...   well,  I'm  not  quite sure
what this reminds me of, but somehow I
feel  I've  seen a game very much like
this,  completely with rotating screen
and  all.   Anyway,  this  game is not
really   bad.    You  race  around  on
different  tracks which are placed all
over  the world.  There's the standard

racing-track   like   tracks,   desert
tracks,  winter  tracks  (situated  in
sweden)  and you even get to race in a
city  which  I  can  tell you is hard!
Racing  on  such  small  roads with so
little room for skidding calls out the
very  best  in driving skills.  I must
admit I didn't manage to complete this
level.

¢3  There  is  some  help  in the way of
arrows  which points out which way you
should  turn,  and  without  these the
game   would  be  nigh-on  impossible.
Some  of the cars are really fast, and
some   are   easier  to  control  than
others.  Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you
that  you can choose between different
cars,  one  of  which is...  a Toyota!
(biiig    surprise!)   Each   car   is
different  from  the others, mainly in
handling and speed.

  The  fun  thing is not only the fact
that  the track changes, it's also the
fact that the time changes.  Sometimesyou  race  at  night, a thing that can
(and  will)  make  it  harder to avoid
oncoming  opponents.  Some levels also
are  contests  where  you race against
the  computer, others you just have to
complete in a set time etc.

¢2'COMPETITION RULES'

¢7  As said, the game is really fun, and
after  some  time  you  have raced the
tracks more than a couple of times and
you will have set some records on each
track.   These  records  can be saved,
and  you  could compete with a friend,
battling  for  the best time.  This is
no big deal, but it does add some more
fun  to  the  game,  and I DID compete
with some friends ('cut those corners!
The  corners!').  So what we have here
is  a  well put-together game which is
worth  downloading,  especially if you
are  a  speed-freak.   Take  this  and
avoid  Kyle  Petty's  No fun, sorry No
Fear Racing.

                       AN AWFULLY BIG ADVENTURE                          
¢3===== ¢8AN AWFULLY BIG ADVENTURE ¢3=============================== ¢8by MeloManiac ¢3===

¢8An Awfully Big Adventure ¢1might as  well
had had  the  title  ¢8An  Awfully   Dull
Adventure¢1, because this film,  starring
¢8Hugh  Grant¢1 was  a  neurotic,   superior
English stage  director,  doesn't  have
that much on offer. Stella  is a  young
English  girl,  who's  dreaming  of   a
carreer as an actress. She's  hired  by
Meredith  Potter  (¢8Hugh Grant¢1)   as   a
stage  assistent. At  the  theatre  she
becomes a witness to all the  tragedies
going on in the  theatre-world  -  many
people drink, and  Meredith is  abusing
his young male workers (sexually).
One  day the  legendary  actor   O'Hara
comes to the theatre, to  take  on  the
role as Captain Hook in Peter Pan.
He knows Meredith and quickly finds out
what's going on. Also  he's a  romantic
dreamer type, and Stella  falls in love
with him,  and  they  start  a   sexual
relationship.

That's roughly the movies plot.

¢4The  big  problem ¢8Mike Newell¢4 (who also
directed the really great ¢8Four Weddings
and a Funeral¢4) has  with  this   movie,
is  kind  of  the  same  Robert  Altman
had   with   Pret-a-Porter  he   can't
really  make up his  mind  about  which
direction  the  movie  should  move in.
Therefore the  characters seems  pretty
thin, and you can't  really  relate  to
them  -  only  ¢8Alan Rickman¢4  as  O'Hara
is  interesting,  and  Stella,   played
by a  newcomer  whose  name I've forgot
is  all  right too.  But - the   story,
the movie  wants to  tell, is very hard
to  define,  and  thats what  makes the
movie a lot less interesting - and more
boring - than it should have been.

¢3========== ¢8DUMB AND DUMBER ¢3=================================== ¢8by MeloManiac ¢3===

¢8Jim Carrey ¢1of ¢8The Mask¢1 and ¢8Ace Ventura:
Pet Detective ¢1 fame  is  back, in  this
hillarious  comedy  about  two brothers
(¢8Jim Carrey¢1 and ¢8Jeff Daniels¢1) with-not-
so-much brains! ¢8Carrey¢1 is  a chauffeur,
¢8Daniels¢1  owns a hair-cut shop for dogs!
One  day ¢8Carrey¢1  drives  a girl  to the
airport - she  leaves her  bag  on  the
airport-floor  for someone  to pick up,
but stupid as he is, ¢8Carrey¢1 thinks that
she's  forgotten  it!  He  desides   to
deliver  it  back to  her, at  the ski-
resort Aspen, and he takes his  brother
with him.

As you've probably  already figured out
a lot  of  crazy things  happens,  both
on  the way to  Aspen, and at the  ski-
resort.  ¢8Carrey¢1  is  great  and   funny
in  his  role, and  his  ugly  hair-cut
makes  it  all the  better! Daniels  is
also  very  funny - he's  usually  seen
in more  serious  roles, but he  proves
that he can do comedies as well.

¢4The  humor ranges  from the  most corny
¢8Leslie Nielsen - type  humor¢4,  to   the
darker and meaner kind.  And the  movie
IS very  funny - almost all  the  time.
Even the ending is extremely good,  and
not one that you'd expect.

So - if  you  enjoyed ¢8The Mask¢4 (I did),
or ¢8Ace Ventura: Pet Detective¢4  (Haven't
seen it), then  you'll  probably   love
¢8Dumb and Dumber¢4! And when you  consider
that new comedies  are very far  apart,
a GOOD one shouldn't be missed!

¢1Celebrating  the  50th  anniversary  of
the liberation of  Denmark, the  Danish
distributors of Schindler's List,  UIP,
has chosen to reissue ¢8Steven Spielbergs¢1
more  than  3 hours  long   ¢8masterpiece¢1
on the  big  screen in ¢8Imperial Cinema¢1.
The  movie depicts  the horrible condi-
tions in  2nd World Wars  ¢8concentration
camps¢1, as well as telling the story  of
business-man ¢8Oskar Schindler¢1.
This  is  all done  in  glorious  black
and   white,  using   mostly   handheld
cameras, giving the movie a documentary
and very  realistic feel. I  won't  say
no more, as  this  IS a  reissue,  just
go see this movie - but remember:
it  isn't a  feel-good  movie!   You're
likely  to  just  sit  frozen  in   the
cinema all the way through the  closing

                             Movie Cliches                               
¢1MOVIE CLICHES

¢3Hi and welcome to this months special movie-feature, on movie-cliches!
These are things that we see in almost all movies, and, at least if
it's about computers, we probably laugh at them. There's a special
section on computer-cliches here for you to laugh at!
But let's get on with it. All of these examples were taken from an
FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) about cliches in movies, obtained
from the InterNet.


¢1BOMBS

¢8We'll start with some 'explosive' cliches (bad joke!).

¢3- Bombs always have big, blinking, beeping timer displays

¢8- When you cut the wire to the detonator, the timer will stop. You will not
  be able to do this, however, until only one second remains.

¢3- All wires have different colors, so the hero can easily differentiate
  them when he has to cut the right one.

¢8- Explosions always happen in slow motion.

¢1PHONES

¢3- All phone numbers begin with 555.

¢8- A ringing phone is usually picked up within 3 seconds.

¢3- Don't give the person on the other end of the phone time to say what they
  have to.

¢8- You also never have to look up a phone number, for anyone.

¢3- When a phone line is broken or someone hangs up unexpectedly, communication
  channels can be restored by frantically beating the cradle and saying
  'Hello?  Hello?'.

¢8- Always knock over the phone if it wakes you up.  If you are expecting a call,
  make sure that you pull the covers up completely over your head so that
  knocking it over becomes easier.  All houses have phones next to the bed.

¢1RADIO, TV & VIDEO

¢3Right! And now for some cliches about radio, tv and video in movies....

¢8- A character turns on the radio just in time to hear a special
  announcement or some important news item. Then turns the radio off.
  ex.:
   CLICK
   'Three escaped lunatics have been spotted in <wherever listeners are>.
   blah blah blah.'
   CLICK

¢3- The phone rings.  Caller says, 'You better check out what's on the news
  on Channel 13.' He turns on channel 13 and gets the report from the
  beginning.

¢8- All VCRs in films are always cued up exactly to the portion of tape you
  want to show someone.


¢1COMPUTERS

¢3And now for something we know about: COMPUTERS!

¢8- Word processors never display a cursor.

¢3- All monitors display inch-high letters.

¢8- You can gain access to any information you want by simply typing 'ACCESS
  ALL OF THE SECRET FILES' on any keyboard

¢3- All computers are connected. You can access the information on the
  villain's desktop computer, even if it's turned off.

¢8- Powerful computers beep whenever you press a key or whenever the screen
  changes.  Some computers also slow down the output on the screen so that
  it doesn't go faster than you can read.  The *really* advanced ones also
  emulate the sound of a dot-matrix printer.

¢3- All computer panels have thousands of volts and flash pots just
  underneath the surface.  Malfunctions are indicated by a bright flash, a
  puff of smoke, a shower of sparks, and an explosion that forces you
  backwards.

¢8- People typing away on a computer will turn it off without saving
  the data.

¢3- When the power plant/missile site/whatever overheats, all the control
  panels will explode, as will the entire building.

¢8- If you display a file on the screen and someone deletes the file, it
  also disappears from the screen (e.g Clear and Present Danger).

¢3- If a disk has got encrypted files, you are automagically asked for a
  password when you try to access it.

¢8- No matter what kind of computer disk it is, it'll be readable by any
  system you put it into. All application software is usable by all
  computer platforms.


¢1HACKERS AND MODEMS

¢3... And here's something that's REALLY for us: Hackers and modems!

¢8- A hacker can get into the most sensitive computer in the world before
  intermission and guess the secret password in two tries.

¢3- Complex calculations and loading of huge amounts of data will be
  accomplished in under three seconds. Movie modems usually appear to
  transmit data at the speed of two gigabytes per second.


¢1SPACESHIPS

¢8Spaceships! Yeah, let's hack a little on sci-fi's, shall we?

¢3- Spaceships make noise!


¢8- Spaceships always fly perpendicular to the same axis. When two spacecraft
  encounter each other, they're always aligned on a plane and never
  approach at odd angles.

¢3- All spaceships, no matter how small, have internal artifical gravity and
  no matter how badly your ship gets pummeled by the evil aliens in the
  evil alien ship, no matter how many external panels get blown away, no
  matter how many sparks or how much smoke pours out of your control
  panels, the artificial gravity will always keep working.


¢1Yep, that's it. I hope you've enjoyed those cliches as much as I have, and
next time you watch a movie, you'll laugh at some of the filmmakers'
stupidities!:-)
