HiSoft BASIC 2 is a complete development system which is
ideal for both the professional and the casual programmer.
Your programs can be written with the integrated
muNi-window editor where there is a complete range of
features that allow you to create, edit and run your BASIC
programs without ever leaving the comfortable interactive
environment: block marking with the mouse, cut, copy and
paste, bookmarks for quick reference, fast, case-sensitive
search and replace, flexible organisation of your text
windows, compilation at the touch of a key and much more.
The editor takes full advantage of the new features of
HiSoft BASIC 2 shows off itsAGA support Workbench 2 and Workbench 3 and there is a version of
_ L ^ . . the editor that emulates many of the advanced features of
The Compiler Workbench 2 under Workbench 1 .3.
HiSoft BASIC 2 is a compiler that feels like an interpreter when you use it from within the integrated
environment, it takes source code either directly or via the include statement and produces fast, efficient 68000
code; it is also possible to pre-tokenise your source code to obtain maximum speed of compilation The syntax
is highly compatible with olher implementations including Microsoft QuickBASIC" (PC), AmigaBASIC etc
allowing modern, structured programming with a high degree of portability between different machines, The
graphics commands built into HiSoft BASIC let you take advantage ot the AGA chip set.
You can link with assembly language and SAS/Lattice C programs and compile to memory for testing or compile
to disk to produce your final, standalone masterpiece.
The Debugger
There are times when your program does not behave in
the way that you planned. On these occasions, you can
use TRON/TROFF statements to trace execution by line
number, or you can invoke the HiSoft BASIC debugger
This is a medium-code-level dehugger, which displays the
source code and object code of your program at the same
time. You have access to glj your BASIC sub- program and
function names and you can step through the BASIC
source code by line, setting breakpoints as appropriate.
*• ■ ' — ;
The Libraries
Lite *. D .oii~ a Ev * n Animation Datatypes are easy.'
HiSoft BASIC 2 comes with libraries that let you access the
features of all versions of the Amiga operating system from Workbench 1 .3 up to Workbench 3.1 . The standard
Amiga names are used, as described in the ROM Kernel manuals, making it easy to translate examples from C,
There are examples of using and displaying IFF files, Datatypes, Gadtools gadgets & menus, Tasks, Sound etc.
The Package
HiSoft BASIC 2 is supplied with a comprehensive, 640-page
manual which, in addition to user and reference sections, also
contains an extensive tutorial on using the package.
The system works on all Amiga computers with 1Mb or more of
memory, at least one floppy drive, keyboard and mo use r in all 80
column screen resolutions. We recommend 2Mb of memory
and a hard disk if you intend to work on larger programs or to
take full advantage of the new operating system features.

Amiga support pledge
as [BID losses continue
SOFTWARE and hardware developers
"ave promised to continue supporting I he-
Amiga even if Commodore fail to survive
the« cash crisis.
With a massive user base for the com-
puter around Europe, companies are confi-
dent they can continue lo make profit from
Amiga products for several more years..
Their commitment comes as financially-
'joubled Commodore posted an S&.2 million
toss tor their second quarter - traditionally
ffie year's most successful sales period.
But sales slumped lo just $70.1 million
from S237.7 million in the corresponding
period a year ago and shares in the compa-
ny sank from S3 to 37 cents each on ihe
announcement,
The weak performance was blamed on
financial constraints which hampered the
firm's ability lo supply products and poor
economic conditions in Europe -
Commodore's key market.
Although the cash shortfall has been cut
back considerably, the company had pre-
dicted they would return to profitability in
the quarter and now maintain negative
equity.
They have warned that without financial
hetp they couid be thrown into reorganisa-
tion or liquidation proceedings, and are talk-
ing with creditors about proposed
restructuring.
Power Computing boss Tony Laniri's
comments, were typical of those from Amiga
developers:
"With so many Amigas in use around the
Pioudloat: "CcmirtdlfW*
nmv* tit* murvivml fttrimtit"
world, there's al least three or four years'
life left in the machine even if Commodore
go down," he said
And most industry figures believe thai
even if Commodore crash the Amiga name
will continue, and al press time there was
Speculation of an imminent take Over of the
firm.
But Commodore's managing director for
finance and operations, Colin Proudfoot. is
confident the company will continue trading:
"Commodore have the survival instinct." he
said.
"Market conditions will improve- -
our restructuring programme has already
resulted in reduced losses - and demand
for our product will continue to grow
In 1994."
Free tickets far Amiga show
AMIGA dealer Gasteiner (081-345 6000) are offering
200 Amiga Computing readers free tickets to their

The event will be at the Novotel Hotel in Hammersmith.

exhibitors including HiSofl, Meridian. AlfaData and Power
Computing.
They are expected to show several new Amiga
products including a 12-bit sound card for the A 1200. new
software from the United Stales and a range of CD32
add-ons.
A SCSI hard drive controller tor the A4OO0 will be shown
tor the first time and Microvitee plan to display their latest
multi-sync monitor, Ihe 143S.
Frgm German peripheral manufacturer BSC there will be a
A120Q ROM drive and Golden Image promise to offer dis-
counts on their hardware.
The first 20Q people to call 081-345 6573 and quote
reference AMC1 will each receive free entrance.
flpproual stamp to aid buying
A SEAL of approval aimed at making life
easier for Amiga owners looking to buy
software and hardware is soon to be
launched by Commodore.
The manufacturer says the stamp will
be issued only after third-party products
have undergone "rigorous" tests in their
US and UK offices.
Disk drives, scanners and
memory expansions are
expected lo be among the
first peripherals to
be given the seal,
and should be available
wilhin the next few
weeks.
But already the scheme
is facing difficulties, with
several players within the
market saying (hey are unwilling
to pay hefty fees to Commodore for the
use of the stamp.
"We want to give users reassurance
when they invest in a machine," said
Commodore's David P feasance.
*The seal of approval will provide that
reassurance - a guarantee of quality for
the best peripherals and software*
But one industry figure, who
didn't want lo be named,
said end users could find
themselves picking up the
cos is or getting products
approved.

Uideo spectacular heads to Europe
EUROPEANS are now able to use ore of Ihe Amiga's most spectacular
peripherals - Newtek's Video Toaster.
The system, which manipulates graphics, animation and test with video,
has already become popular with television production companies across
Ihe United Slates.
Now. by combining it with Prime Image's Passport 4000 converter, the
Video Toaster car be used with Europe's PAL broadcasting system.
Although expensive for everyday Amiga enthusiasts, ihe device is a
cheap alternative for traditional TV and film equipment needed lo make lop
video effects.
The Video Toaster makes ii possible for MOOOs to perform a number of
digital effects lo progress from one video scene to ihe next.
They include video frames which fly out of the screen, poured water,
shattered glass and lorn page - in addition to the producer being able to
create their own.
And animators will be targeted for its sophisticated Lightwave software,
which can be used lo rondor and sculpt images
Commodore's national multimedia sales manager Kieron Sumner said:
"Every Amiga user realises Ihe huge potential of the range. The Video
Toaster changes potential into reality.
"I'm convinced its availability here will propel the Amiga towards domina-
tion of the TV special effects marker
Experts, however, say the conversion lowers the quality too
much for it to be used professionally by the European television and film
industry.
NewTek, who deny rumours that they are working on a PAL version of
Video Toaster, can be telephoned in Kansas, USA on 010 1 913 228 8000

68060 heads for Amiga
THE first Amiga accelerator lo use Motorola's top-end
66060 processor is promised for release this summer
from specialist Advanced Systems and Software.
Cyberstorm 060/50 will use a 50MHz version of Ihe
chip which the developer claims will boost the A4000's
operating speed from 16 million instructions per second
to 70nnips.
The CI. 200 system will consist of a Cyberstorm Carrier
Board fitted with a CPU module and a memory board thai
can accept up to 128Mb of fast RAM.
A4Q00 owners who do nol need quite as much perfor-
mance from their computer will be targeted for the £800
Cyberstorm 040/040.
Running a 66O40 processor ai 40fvtH^ the board is
Amiga Computing
expected lo increase the speed of applicalions by two
and a half times compared to a standard A4000/040.
Both products will have extension capabilities. A cache
module which connects to ihe CPU is promised to give
"Significant" performance increase.
And a communications module still under development
will provide a SCSl-ll interface, and Ethernet controller
and high speed serial ports
Looking to the future, ASS boss Wolf Dieln'ch says lhat
Cyberstorm based on a 68060 running at 66MHz should
run top-end Amigas at more than 90mips.

Hi
EDITOR I A
*o
hanks to information supplied during
recent surveys it's became obvious
that Floppy-based Amiga& are m
ctecline- According to our research at least 40
percent of Amiga Computing's existing reader-
ship are already devoted hard dish users.
Add these existing converts lo the battalions
of floppy users who intend 10 upgrade as soon
as the cash becomes available and you have a
strong argument in favour of installation.
Given these facts, it would appear a strange
marketing plan to exclude the hard disk from
any imminent software' retease. Even so, a fair-
ly extensive straw poll of games enthusiasts
came up with an estimate that only about 40
per cent of games sold ship with an installation
option.
This is even more annoying when you con-
sider that almost every productivity package
sold on the machine offers the option to install
as standard,
Obviously in certain areas of the games mar-
ket the situation is very similar, as most graphic
adventures and simulations also ship wilh
installers
In most cases Such games usually - and
quite rightly - insist on some form of password
protection, either in the form of a code- wheel or
via ihe manual. Greal, I've got no problem wilh
spending a second or two deciphering the
occasional code, so why not extend the proce-
dure to all Amiga games?
In their defence, most software houses
would claim trvat due to the sheer size of such
games, installation is almost a prerequisite. In
addition, software which fits into this genre usu-
ally sells lo the more mature games enthusiast
who is - in their opinion - less likely to pirate
software.
Add lo Itiat ine complexity of such games
and the subsequent dependency on a manual
and you have a much more secure platform for
sales. All fairly logical argument perhaps, but in
my experience a pirate isn't likely lo hang up
his or her Jolly Roger jus! because they've
turned 25.
This argument is bolstered by Ihg PC mar-
ket, which is becoming increasingly ravaged by
Ihe scourge of software seas, and yet almost
every PC program sold offers installation as
standard, and when they don't, sales often
plummet,
Basically the problem appears be pes of per-
ception, Amiga users are obviously seen as
potential criminals in Ihe eyes o! software
The R[ team
Hard times
With the huge mmm in hard drive safes, — i
why is it so many Amiga releases stiil don't install? -
Paul Rustin puts some old excuses to the sword —
It's high time
that software
\mm had mare [anFidence i
developers But if we're nothing mors than com-
puter-based kleptomaniacs, why is it that the
Amiga still accounts for 50 per cent of total
computer games sales in the UK?
This figure becomes even more impressive
when you consider the Amiga is probably out-
numbered by the PC by a factor of al least len
to one I'm not trying to suggest that ihere isn't
a piracy problem on the Amiga - of course
there is - but the same is equally true on the
PC platform,
Thr$ brings us back to the question of protec-
tion, If it works for flight sims and so on, why
shouldn't the same be true for more convention-
al games like Desert Slrike, and classic sports
sims such as Goal or Sensible Soccer - all of
which would have benefited immensely from
hard drive installation?
The software houses would argue that once
a game is installable it invariably becomes easi-
er lo pirate. In that case, why nol pile on the
protection with code wheels which can't be pho-
tocopied or whatever it takes?
I) it's a matter of people hacking into the code
and actually cracking the game, there's little
anyone can do excepl the programmers, and to
be honest for such professional pirates installa-
tion isn't really a consideration. After all they've
been doing the same to floppies for years so
what difference will installation make to (hem?
OK, you may ask what ail the fuss is about. If
you can't wait a couple of minutes for a game to
load, or simply aren't willing to swap ihe occa-
sional disk, tough? If you cant handle a bit of
inconvenience, who cares? Buy a different
game or gel something similar elsewhere.
It's this last point which worries me more
than anything else. If the buying public can't
get what they want from the Amiga, why
shouldn't they look elsewhere? After ail, every-
thing installs on the PC, doesnt it...
If you're not an existing hard drive user this
may seem a rather extreme argument but
believe me if s not a million miles from reality.
Until you've used & hard drive it's hard to
appreciate how dependent you become on
them.
Ms a bit like owning a car - when you've
never had one they're just another means of
getting from A-to-B, bui drag a passing
motorist from their cosy little hatchback and
swap it for a bus pass and you'll soon discover
what a bit of inconvenience can do lo people.
Basically it's high time that software houses
had a little more confidence in the people who
keep them in their company cars. If not, this
paranoia with protector* could seriously back-
fire. Although many would have you believe
otherwise, the Amiga market is maturing all the
time, and if the software houses don't wake up
to the fact that the expectations of the buying
public are evolving too, we'll all suffer at the
expense of lesser machines. /r-jf

The de-archiving procedure has been
™iuch improved and now combines the

make sure you copy
all the necessary files
across as listed in the
CoverDisk pages,
eg;

To run, simply double click on the icon
which will load up the installer program.
Using the installer
ignore the buttons that appear when the
nstaller program tools up and simply click

lo insert a blank disk ready for formatting.
Once you have clicked On Proceed. Ihe
installer will indicate that it is formatting the
disk in DFO. When this has finished, click
on Proceed again to start the de-archiving
procedure. When the application has been
de-archived you will be toid where the de-
archived files are. Click once again on
Proceed to finish.
If at any time you are unsure as to
whether you want to continue installing, you
can click on the Abort Install button.
Occasionally, utilities may need to add
instructions to your User-Slartup file located
in the S director so lhat they will function
correctly. If you want to add Ihe instruc-
tions, click on Proceed when, prompted.

ihe install icon with the appropriate name in the
WB_1.3_ Only drawer.
eg:

When you load up the 1.3 installer the program will first
prepare itself ready to de-archive ihe program to a
AHar
inserting a
blank di*k
pre** jf to
continue or
"n" to abort
blank disk(s). You will then be asked to insert a disk to
be formatted into DFO and either press y lo continue or
n lo abort.
Provided you answer y, the disk you insed will be
formatted and the application de-archived.
Installing utilities
You should first run the MakeUtilitiesDisk 1.3 to lormal
a blank disk called ACUtilities which will be used to
store any utilities you eventually install,
This disk can be used with future CoverDisk utilities
until il becomes full The MakeUtilitiesDiskl.3 program
will be a permanent feature of the CoverOisk.
To install any utilities, boot your machine with your
CoverDisk inserted in DFO. Utilities can be installed by
Clicking on their install icon lound in the appropriate
drawer in the WB_1.3_Only drawer. You cannot specify
their destination and any additions to the Startup-
Sequence musl oe done manually.
When installed the utilities are copied to a drawer
called ACUtils on the ACUtiiities disk.
We have now managed to fix the prob-
lem with AmlgaDOS displaying a "disk
is write protected" requester when a
write-enabled disk is insetted. Just
make sure you insert a blank disk
when the Installer programs tell you -
end not before or after.
Installing utilities
The procedure for installing utilities is much
the same as installing applications, except
that you can boot from your hard drive or
Workbench disk. As utilities don't need to be
do-archived, you are asked to specify a
directory on your hard drive or Workbench
disk where you would like lo install them.
If you don't want to install lo the default
directory you can change il by clicking on
Change Destination. The Show Drives but-
ton will allow you to select a new device and
directory- You can create a new drawer for
your utility to go in by clicking on the Make
Mew Drawer button and typing in Ihe name.
You can also make a utilities disk by tun-
ning the MakeU(ililiesDisk1.3 program locat-
ed in the WB_1 .3_on1y drawer and installing
your utilities to here. At times you may be
asked if you want lo install s utility's docu-
mentation, A tick box indicates itiat the docu-
mentation is selected for inclusion, bul you
can click on the bos lo ignore rl or simply
click on the Skip This Part button.

-Spread 2 is a fully functional
spreadsheet that will allow you to
keep your finances in check without
the hassle of dragging out the calcu-
lator and folders crammed wilh documents.
The program is ready-to-use and all you
need lo do to load it up is to insert CoverDisk
1 into drive DFO: and reset your Amiga.
The advantages of a spreadsheet pro-
gram such as K-Spread 2 are many.
Spreadsheets otter a clear and concise way
of storing financial information without Ihe
meed to keep hold of bills, statements and
transachon papers.
Also, when you have created a spread-
sheet you can use it over and over again as
all ihe calculations are performed by your
Amiga.
When K-SprearJ 2 has loaded, double-
click on |he disk icon. Inside the window you
will find the main KSpread program and the
graph generator KSpreadG.
Printer Is a preferences program that will
allow you to specify the type of printer you
are using. We have already included

sheet applications are made up of cells as
«wy make it tar easier for the program to
perform calculations, The cells are refer-
enced by letters across (he top and numbers
down the left-hand side. Therefore, every
cs« can be quickly referenced - B6, A3 for
sample.
Yog will also notice that there are two dif-
ipenl cursors on the screen - an outline cur-
sor and a solid cursor. The outlined cursor
rdtcales the cell presently being edited and
the solid cursor indicates the copy and paste
nnatiofl.
Take a look al the small window to the
lop-left of (he screen behind K-Spread 2s
'nam window, This is called the Edit window
and it is here that you type in your cell data,
There are four different types of dale that
can be slored in a cell and these are Value -
ordinary numbers, Text - a description,
Formula - a formula lor calculating the con-
tents of a cell or more, and Label which Is
used simply as a heading or inside a formula
as a reference to a row or column.
You can change the data type in the Edit
window by pressing the Tab key. The pre-
sent data type is displayed in the window title
bar. Before we go on lo explain the
more advanced options in K- Spread 2, let's
find out how we can create a basic spread-
sheet
Position the spreadsheet cursor (outlined}
on the cell BO by holding down the Shift key
and clicking on it. The Shift key selects the
spreadsheet cursor which you can also
move with Ihe cursor keys. Attar ihe data
type in (he Edit window lo Text with Ihe Tab
key, tskjw type in January and press Return,
January will appear in cell BO
Move the cursor to CO and this time enter
February. Do the same for cell DO entering
March instead
Now we need to enter the Row Headers,
Hold down the Shift key and click in cell A2.
As the Edit window is still in Texl mode sim-
ply type in Sales and press Return,
Click on A4 and enter Margin, Gross Profit
OM» mrm aaally copied mnd pmrnAmd by drawing
Otmm ollhmr to Mi* r*w or column hmmttmrm
in A6, Expense in AS and Nel Profit in AiO.
You will notice that the text you have entered
bleeds across Ihe margin.
To change this click and hold the left
mouse button on the right edge line of col-
umn A and move tt across to the right slight-
ly, so ihat the text fils Into the cells, When
you release the button click on This in the
requester so that you affect only the A col-
umn.
Move to ceU B2 and press Tab until you
see Value appear in the Edit window. Type
in 500 and move the cursor to the next cell to
the right. Type in 550 and 570 in the next
two cells
Next select cell B4 and change the dale
type to Formula. Type in 0.22* then point
with the mouse al cell B2 and press the LMB
(left mouse button) wilh ihe Ctrl key held
down. This will add the cell reference B2 to
the formula. Press Return
We wish to repeat this formula in each of
the cells to which Margin refers, so move the
solid cursor over B4 by clicking on it.
Release the LMB and then click and hold it
down again to select and grab the cell, Drag
it across to the row heading 4 edge line until
all the cells in thai row are highlighted.
When you release the LMB you wi!l be
presented with the Row Range requester.
Global will copy the selected cell formula
across all the cells in the selected row.
Window is defined by the value specified
in the Set Slider Range option in the Options
Window menu and Cursor will sel the limit lo
thai defined by the cursor.
However, we wish to define the range our-
selves so type in C"D in Ihe line below the
option buttons. This tells K-Spread 2 that we
wish to copy the formula across cells C4 and

formula amendment? answer Ves and any
changes lo Ihe formula will be made by ihe
program automatically.
This is important because we want C4 lo
contain the formula Q.22'C2 rather than
0.22*B2 and tell D4 to contain the formula
0.22*D2. To complete the entry ol data,
move the outline cursor to cell B6. This is
Gross Profit lor January which we define as
0.95* Point to the cell B4 with Ihe LMB and
Ctrl held down so that B4 appears in the for-
mula, Press return to enter Ihe data.
To copy the formula across the other cells
in the row select ceil B6 by clicking once and
then drag the selected cell to Ihe row head-
er, making sure that the remainder of row 6
is highlighted before releasing the mouse
button.
Specify the range as C:D as before and
make sure that the answer to Do you want
formula amendment is Yes.
Now enter a set of values into row 8,
Expense. Remember to select cell B8 and
set the data type to Value.
Once the three items of data are entered,
move the outline cursor to cell BIO, We are
now going to define Nel Profit to be Gross
Profit minus Expense.

For a rundown on the basic operation of Virus Checker read the Workbench
13 instructions. Nole that you can install Virus Checker to the WBStartup
drawer so that it loads every time you boot your Amiga.
By clicking on the re-size window gadget in the Virus Checker bar,
Workbench 2 & 3 users can bring up VC's advanced options screen,
There are a. multitude of options thai you can set beta but only a few are
important at this moment.
Click the Use Window button off so that the tick disappears, This will stop
the Virus Checker bar appearing every lime you boot your Amiga. You can
always bring the bar back again by using the Exchange Commodity on
Workbench
Take a look al the window on ihe far right In this window you can add files
for Virus Checker to automatically check when if loads. The mos.1 common
virus victim is the startup-sequence.
Click on the Add button below the window and then type the following in the
requester:
■:ttiftup-ittufncr
At the bottom of Hie window you can select which drive you would like VC to
check when disks are inserted, If you had a second drive you would dick on
the DF1 : button so that a lick appears
Click on the Save button to store your settings and then on the close win-
dow gadget to close the Virus Checker bar.
win appear highlighted.
2 Position Ihe mouse pointer on the cell
and drag it lo the destination cell by holding
down Ihe LMB. Release the LMR when the
destination cell appears highlighted.
You can also copy cells to entire cows or
columns. Before you perform any copying
select ihe source cell - releasing Ihe LMB
once ihe cell has turned black,
Drag (ho ceil to the column header, posi-
tioning the source cell image so that the
entire row or column turns black. Release
the LMB and a requester will appear giving
flange options. The Range requester
options are explained above,
To Insert and delete complete rows or
columns, press down Ihe Shift key and click
on either a row or column header. A
requester will open (Column and Flow Edit).
This requester asks for the number
(Amount) of rows or columns lo insert or
delete and gives the options of Insert,
Delete or Cancel. In Insert mode the rows or
columns are inserted before the current row
or column. In Delete mode Ihe current raw
or column and raws or columns to the right
or below are deleted.
As mentioned earlier, one of the dala
types allowed in the Edit window is Labels,
A label is text within a formula which is used
lo reference another cell.
LABELS
Any cell can be designated to be a label
by entering some text Into it and choosing its
data type to be Label (L), Any other cells
below and to the right of this cell may then
use this label to build up s cell reference.
Let's say we have some column headings
ol the months January, February etc., with
January in cell BO and a row heading of
Sales in cell A2.
To refer lo cell B2, which would be Sales
for January, in a formula or range, we can
either;
1 . Refer to ihe cell as 52 from the keyboard,
2. Click on the cell with the LMB and (tie CM
key,
3. Make the column and row header's data
type Label and refer to the cell as
January-Sales. Note thai a label is case
sensitive - trie program will not recognise a
reference to January or sales.
If there is more than one label of the
same name the label which Is nearest to the
subject cell will be used, When you copy a
cell that uses a label, you will be asked if
you want lo amend the formula to refer to a
new column or row label, or not,
if, at any point you delete a label any ref-
erences to it will be replaced by Ihe corre-
sponding row of column title e.g. A, AE, 34
etc- However, you cannot use these titles as
label names. Mote also that you cannot refer
to a label unless the cell you refer to is
below and to the right of it.
Let's now take a look at some of the
menu facilities in K-Spread 2. In
the joystick lelt or right quickly releases a mine. For lite full
lisl of controls see fig 1.
The terrain icon to the top-right of the control icons allows
you to select the terrain art which the ensuing battle will take
place. The default Is tanks over land. Clicking on the icon
changes it to gunboats patrolling the river ways.
Those options that are crossed out are only available
in Ihe registered version of Tarra. Once you are happy with
Ihe set-up you should click on the Go Icon to begin the
game,
The screen is divided into four regions and each region
scrolls In accordance with its associated tank or boat.
Al the bottom of each region Is Ihe status information
which displays the amount of flags collected, how many your
lank or boat currently holds (only three can be collected al
one time) the amount ol mines you have remaining and the
time left
Your vehicle can only take Ihree shots before it blows up
and you are returned back to base, II you die when you are
carrying flags they are released and can be collected by
other players.
Each player has four cannons protecting their base and
flags. The cannons are controlled by the computer but can
be permanently destroyed by enemy fire.
If you are in a battle near your Own base With Ihe cannons
are firing and they hit you. no damage will be registered.
Your gun is capable ol blasting through walls, hedgerows
and buildings but keep an eye on tbe enemy vehicles to
check they aren't sneaking up on you.
Keep In mind how many flags you have collected. Three
and you should head back to base to store them, Nothing Is
worse than getting shot and losing your flags, only for them
to be picked up by the enemy.
When the time limit has run down the winner will be
announced in a celebration ol violence. The losing players
and their tanks (or boats) will be crushed under your I ranks

DogFight is a cfassic aerial combat game
that first appeared on the VCS in the form of
Combat.
Up to four players can participate at one
time but only one wifi survive to be called
champion. The game is set during World
War f when all that men could fly was a
clumsy biplane.
However, these biplanes can turn on a
sixpence and have immense speed capabili-
ties. Climb inlo your cockpit and let's take a
fiight through Dog Fighl...
On loading up the game and pressing
Space you will be presented with
the pre game options. By pressing the key
F1 to F4 you can toggle the amount of play-
ers and which control methods they will be
using.
There are five methods of control and they
are Joystick One, Joystick Two, Cursor
Keys, 2, X and Shrfl and Out To Lunch. To
gain a better impression of (he flight controls
and in-game keys take a took at fig 1 .
DARING
The basic idea of the game is to shoot
down the other players while remaining
intact and safely out of harms way. This
involves pulling some fairly daring stunts and
using the clouds as cover.
Each player begins at his or her airfield
ready to take off. You begin with tan lives
indicated below each hanger and these
deplete as you are hit.
Press the fire button or fire key lo start the
engines and begin take off. When the
biplane has enough speed use the left or
right control direction to take off. Don't try
and pull up too early otherwise the plane will
blow up on the runway.
When off the runway, climb gradually lo
gain some height and then dive straighi
down, pulling up at the last moment to gain
speed.
If you pull up too steaply the plane will
stall (known to DogFight aces as Floating
Death} and you will find yourself hurtling
back to earth. If this occurs push the nose
Straight down, wait for the engine to cut
back in and quickly push either right or left
to recover the stall.
As you improve you will find thai you can
easily pop off other players while falling -
hence the name Floating Death,

ANNOYING
Strafing planes lhat are taking off can tip
tie balance in your favour but it does prove
annoying to ihe other players and you may
■Snd yourself under attack from everyone
e-se playing.
Avoid spinning dogfights because you are
--ire likely to crasr) into your opponent V&n
shoal him down, If you do get into
such a fight dive away at the best moment
and try and entice your opponent into the
ground,
Beware of wrapping bullets. If you fire
across the screen and l hen turn and re-
enter on the other side you may find yourseff
being shot down by your own bullet - a
waste oi a life and very embarrassing.
The last player remaining is considered
the victor. H there are iwo players and they
shoot each other at the same rime (it can
happen) then the game will be declared a
draw.

unng a misspent youlh among
other aspiring musicians, a con-
versation broke out revolving
around the future of the music business. In
a fit of exuce ranee I immediately adopted
the technological banner, only to find mysell
nstantty in a minority of one.
Undaunted, I stated my case: "In ten
years time everything will bo run by Midi.
and * rial's left over will be nothing more
than a series of ones and zeros on a giant
hard drive."
Believe me, this wasn't a popular theory
in a roomful of musical die-hards deter-
mined to "keep music live" no matter what
the cost. At the time hard drives were still
very much a rarity, while Midi was nothing
more than a blasphemous four-letter word
more often used as an insult than an option,
Gigging musicians am notorious lechno-
phobes and on the whole wouldn't - at the
lime - touch a computer with a Stylophone.
As a result things soon got fairly heated as
the enemy circled the wagons around the
analogue Hag
Fortunately the conversation eventually
turned to the usual obsessions of young
men and my seemingly hysterical opinions
were soon pui down 10 a dodgy pint.
As it turned out my estimate was conser-
vative to say the least. Mow just five years
latter the digital age is definitely upon us,
and in almost every walk of life analogue is
in terminal decline,
Albums have been crushed underfoot by
CD, cassettes are at the mercy of DAT and
even video is evolving into a digital medium
with FMV CDs and direct-to-disk digital
video recording,
Alt fairly predictable; alter all, you can't
stop progress. However the really interest-
ing point isn't the change in format, it's the
fact that all these elements are no longer

the islands they once were.
Audio is becoming ever more synony-
mous with video, and information in general
is inexorably making the difference between
the haves and the have-nots in science,
industry, economics and education.
it information is indeed power, what part
can the Amiga play as worlds collide? After
all, what can a jumped-up games machine
offer that the PCs and Macs can't match?
In my opinion the clue lies in the Amiga's
humble beginnings. Unlike Ihe opposition it
has evolved over the years while the others
have, lor the most part, rested on their cor-
porate laurels.
Take the PC - although it's been the sta-
ple diet of the business community for over
20 years, its basic architecture has never
changed. It's true that power PCs in the 486
and Pentium bracket have become much
faster, but essentially they're still dinosaurs
in disguise.
No matter how quick they become, PCs
will never multitask, and certainly won't sud-
denly develop the natural affinity with video
that the Amiga has enjoyed since day one.
DORMANT
It's true that more than one program can
be loaded into a PC, bul only one can ever
running. The others simply sit dormant in
the background - not exactly the perfect
multimedia approach.
The same is true for Macintoshes; just
like PCs Ihey can load multiple packages,
bul again only one is ever active, Obviously
the Mac is a more worthy challenger cour-
tesy cf its idiot-proof point and click inter-
face and existing kudos in the media -
extensively in publishing.
However, no matter how glossy Ihe
brochure, a Mac simply isn't a multimedia
machine. That particular mantle is exclu-
sively the property of Ihe Amiga.
At this point you're probably resigning
yourself to a few pages of biased, and prob-
ably unsubstantiated (waddle from a self*
confessed Amiga fan. As little as a year ago
I'd probably would have agreed wholeheart-
Faul Rostin rharts the -

■
Without doubt one ol Ihe biggest stumbling blocks for
computing in general has been the incompatibility
Between the various machines and their operating! sys-
tems,
It's Irue that things have improved over the last couple
of years with Commodore finally embracing PC disks as a
transfer option,
As a result ihe two machines can now eri|0y fairly unin-
hibited corn mimical ion -as indeed can Ihe
Mac - courtesy ol its ability to read bolh
double and high-den siiy PC disks.
Unfortunately although a big improve-
Tieni. floppies are becoming ever more inad-
equate due lo Ihe pure volume ol dala which
leeds to be transferred. A classic example is
ray-traced animation, which has been saved out
n a 24-bit format before lo single frame recording.
.- jch circumstances, floppies are almost use-
ess As a result some form of mass media transfer is
essential.
In the past the SyQuest removable hard disk was the
er, alltiaugh this has been challenged recently
with Ihe arrival of various optical drives - Ihe mosl suc-
cesslui being the 128Mb 3.5m variety.
Unfortunately both these systems rely on an identical
drive mechanism and more importantly an OS-compatible
machine at the destination.
Fortunately these barriers are finally coming down with
the arrival ol the Mo-Miga optical disk drive - see sepa-

V
does il provide double the normal storage of a 5.25in opti-
cal by delivering a staggering 1.2 gigabytes per disk, but it
also offers totally transparent transfer between Mac. Amiga
PC and even Unix,
Obviously arty transfers require the actual drive unit, but
the disks themselves simply appear as norma! DOS vol-
ume regardless of the machine using them.
Not surprisingly, the actual life format has to be sup-
ported by the source arid destination machines, bul that's
about it. As a result you can transfer data to jusl about any
system so it's even possible lo communicate with Silicon
Graphics Indigos when necessary.
As- you've probably guessed, Mo-Miga uses its own pro-
prietary file system to achieve compatibility between plat-
forms, Wilh this in mind you'd expect Ihe actual transfer
lime lo be fairly slow, bul surprisingly they're prelly quick
and car) sustain 2Mb per second stretching up to 5Mb in
burst mode.
Unfortunately 2Mb per second is still too slow for exist-
ing digital video systems, the PAR included. However it's
more than adequate for most applications - including the
A051 6 and other direct-to-disk samplers,

edly. as there was no real mason lo expect
any serious corporate interest.
After all, no matter how good the
machine, nothing sells into the corporals
market without the proper exposure, and in
that particular department the Amiga has
always been disastrous.
However over recent months the
machine has finally begun to received the
serious attention it deserves. As you may
recall from the last issue, Commodore -
along with a number of third-party develop-
ers -have established (he ACE initiative.
Admittedly it's still early days with only
one Amiga Centra of Excellence estab-
lished. However with another five set to
spread the Amiga's corporate message
across the UK, the potential is there,
Add ACE to the sterling efforts of inde-
pendents such as Premier Vision - a com-
pany responsible for hosting regular semi-
nars which introduce the besl in Amiga
technology to professional markets - and
i he future looks brighter lhan ever.
Allhough ihe basic Amiga, has obvious
benefits as a potential multimedia worksta-
tion, ihe machine itself is only ihe begin-
ning. It's really the third-parly peripherals
thai lead the charge, and if sold correctly
they could maks the machine the cross-
roads at which ah the digital highways con-
verge.
Before moving on to the tools of the
tfade, it r s probably worlh clarifying what
makes up this almost mythical digital ether.

to its natural affinity with video and its ability to generate a syne - a factor
■fch has made it the ideal enoice for genlocking, titling and tomputer-gfrn-
tnted animation destined lor tape.
Thanks to'lhsse basic skills and the artistic nature of trie machine, some
of Vw beat animation and [ay-tracing software available on amy platform
has emerged on the Amiga. However although capable ol generating aslon-
> siring graphics it. has always suffered when it came to recording.
p the past the or ly option was to inves! in an SP edit recorrie r capable of
rtcttding frames individually. Unfortunately this had two major drawbacks.
• Firstly such i machine retails at around C5.500 and worse stilt a punish-
ing schedule ot single frame recording invariably means hundreds of
pounds a year simply lo maintain the tape heads.
Fortunately the dark ages are ai last coming to an end with the arrival of
dedicated digit*! video recording At present there are at least three sys-
tems tn the final stages of development, two of which will be on sale by Uie
time you read this article. At the forefront of the clamour to capture this
massively lucrative market is the much publicised Personal Animation
Recorder -alias PAR -from Digital Processing Systems,
Although initially designed as a simple replacement for single ttame
recording the PAH - like the Amiga - has evolved into something^ ot
a monster. •
In addition to simply compiling single frames into 24-bit Jpeg animation
the system can also digitise live video - again in real-time - using the
AD3000 TBCJdigitising card. As if that wasn't impressive enough, 16-bit
audio has also been added via the AD516 direct-to-disk sampling system,
As a result, the PAR. AD3GM and AD516 combo builds into the find truly
broadcast quality audio/video system to appear on any desktop platform.
Although It's hard to believe that such power can emanate from a single
machine. I can confirm it works perfectly - see the Personal Animation
Recorder review lor more information.
Although at this point In the issue I can't confirm further expansion pos-
sibilities (again, seethe Personal Animation Recorder review) the 40516 s
natural affinity with Bars 4 Pipes Pro £ could well allow additional hardware
and software such as Seala to become yet another element in a PAR
audio/video setup.
As you mgy already be aware. B*PPro2 can be much more than a
straightforward Midi sequencer Intact, courtesy of its Media Madness mod-
' ule, any Midi sequence can be used to trigger both external hardware and
additional software.
Thanks to the SIAPTE timecode generated by the AD516. it's theoretically
possible for all Ihe element to share a common liming reference and
sequence Iheir efforts accordingly, making the Amiga the heart of the most
powerful multimedia system on any platform
countries and an estimated user base of
over ten. million.
In terms of data transfer the figures are
quite literally mind-boggling, wilh an aver-
age of ten terabytes of information being
shunted around ihe world every month. Add
lo that 4,600 news groups and over 130
gigabytes ol PC and you're looking at a real
monster,
Initiated in 1969. and still subsidised, by
the US Federal governmenl, it's rapidly
realising vice-president AI Gore's dream of
a 'data super-highway".
Obviously the Internet isn't Ihe only
comms option, and in fact there's a whole
hosl of nelwofks such as CompuServe and
CIX which offer similar global access,
sometimes in combination with the Inlemet,
but all from the comfort of an intuitive
menu-driven front end,
As you can imagine the global village -
alias big brother - has big advantages, not
least of which is the ability lo side-step
compatibility problems between various
operating systems.
TRANSFORMATION
Assuming you can read a particular file
format - not usually a problem on the
Amiga - literally anything can be trans-
ferred, regardless of size and all in a matter
ol minutes.
Another imminent link in the evolutionary
chain Is the arrival ol optical fibre as the
standard in telecommunications. Once in
place, video conferencing could well super-
sede or at very least transform email as we
know It.
Again, the Amiga has a headslart in such
an environment courtesy of its affinity with
video and Ihe profusion of
cards such as the IV24
and FrameMachine
which already support
PIP - picture m picture
- displays.
Add a camera and
some additional connec-
tions to this existing tech
nology and the Amiga is in the perfect
position to |ump on the fibre-optic bandwag-
on. Although still a few years away from
With Ilia P1R card th* Atnio* im bocomlno lh»
mo*! pawwtol vitimo toot on Mity platform
general use. B'T are already shipping
videophones and video conferencing
equipment - the times they are a chang-
ing....
Although much of the above has dea":
with the potential of the Amiga, the future is
already at hand courtesy of products such
as GVP's Phone Pak.
As the name suggests, this is a dedicai-
ed telecommunications card which pro-
vides message redirection: "Press 1 for
customer services, press 2 tor sales ana
distribution"', and so on,
You can also use a similar pre-recorded
approach to specify what kind of communi-
cation you wish lo make: "Press 3 to leave
voice mail, press 4 to send atax.,"-
Il's also possible to add lime/date
stamps 10 incoming messages and set up
scheduled transmissions for your own
faxes, thereby avoiding the expense of
peak rate calls,
When employed as a network server you
can also set up private mail areas. It's even
possible lo specify thai the number
of an incoming fa*

oottems is the leek of voice mail and call
action - but to be honest if you
*i*eady have an answer phone and don't
:c«e*aie as pah of a network it's not really a
roo*em.
Combine the potential of comms and the
Amiga's existing multimedia skill and yet
-ere promise is reveaiod, Existing Amiga
sdTware such as InfoChannel can already
pdate satellite information centres and
somt-of-sale sites from a central control
—.achine.
Because the Mm offers true
Jtashiiig , changes w be maoe
^rife5cfihEte3prE5Ertatiis

As a result a single operator can update
a- mhnile number of machines simply by
dotting direct into the satellites to automati-
:i'y replace or update existing presenla-
•.cns. add new ones, alter display times or
download new pages,
A,^d of course, because the Amiga offers
..-:■ multitasking, changes can be made
•egardless of whether a presentation is
already running.
As you'll discover in the digital video sec-
tion, the possibilities offered by recent inno-
vations are finally providing the pro hard-
Mars platform lhat the Amiga has been
surldin-g towards for the last few years.
Although excellent software has bean
around for some time, use of the Amiga in a
broadcast environment has always suffered
*rom the limitations of mass data transfer -
single frame recording being a classic
example - combined with communication
:■ faculties between other machines (see
The optical options).
Fortunately even these sticky problems
are now resolved, and all that remains is
the perennial problem of speed. Although
the Amiga is just as fast as a 466 PC or
Mac Quadra, it's still pretty slow in compari-
son to dedicated graphics workstation*.
However, this stumbling block could soon
oe removed with the imminent arrival of at
■east four 4O0OW0 accelerators, the Warp
transputer, and a planned 060 from
Advanced Software Systems, which if
claims are correct will easily provide work-
station performance on the only true multi-
media machine. £tj
Fast fibres
The unsung hero ol trie Information explosion
is the libre-optic cable. These cables are
capable of carrying 565 megabits (70Mb) of
information every second in I he form ol laser
pulses, and it is this huge increase in trans-
mission speeds which will make most new
digital services possible.
British Telecom have already laid 1.5m Km
ot fibre optic cable, almost all of II to busi-
nesses. There is little impetus lor Ih-e compa-
ny to use the cables on domestic lines
because apart from the cost Of the operation;
8T are lorhtdden from providing home enter-
lainnint services until the year 2001,
although they are already looking at a video-
on-demand service.
By thai lime, the plan is to ha we fibre-optic
supplied Id every business using more than
live phone lines. As the next general ion of
cables should transmit Iwo gigabits, pet sec-
ond, the possibilities tor teleworking and
home entertainment are almost endless.

and more features have since supplanted

Today there are over a dozen different
Amiga digitisers on the market, including

Broadly speaking, a digitiser is a piece of
hardware which attaches to a computer to
enable external data to be first sampled
and then converted into information which
the computer can understand and utilise.
GRABBERS
Sound samplers are also digitisers, but
In this article we're going to concentrate on
video digitisers - sometimes known t\$
frame grabbers.

digitisers need lo be ted a video signal -
usually composite or YC - to do their
magic. But, as with scanners, the quality
of the output rafleels the quality ol the
npul: the old maxim ol garbage in, garbage
oul applies lo digitising as much anything
else.
SPLIT
The video signal may be a still from a
camera or VCR or a live, moving image,
depending whether the digitiser used is a
slow or fast scan model. This analogue sig-
nal is I hen electronically spiit inlo its Ihree
colour components - red. green and blue
(RGB) - before being converted into digital
data which can be senl to the Amiga.
Almost alii external digitisers Iransfer this
daia to the Amiga via (he parallel port,
internal digitizers communicate directly to
the computer hardware. Once transferred,
Ihe digilising software can then instruct Ihe
Amiga to recomb-ine the digital RGB data,
into an image which can be viewed on
screen, either in a native Amiga formal
such as IFF or - if a suitable display card is
fitted - it may be possible lo see a full-
colour, £4 -bit version (though ihis largely
depends on the digitiser's software as well
as the display card). There are a couple of
Hints and tips
There are several simple measures which you can lake to improve the
qua lily ol your digitised images. The first three apply only when grabbing
from a video camera.
• Ensure that the digilising subject is evenly and adequately lit by using
portable lighting, sucti as Anglepaise lamps or fluoresced slrips or by
reflecting daylight onto the subiecl using sheets of while paper or
polystyrene sheelmg. Obviously mere's little you can do i( your sub-
ject is outdoors but wall lor the natural lighl lo improve - unless you
have suiiable lighting, ot course.
• Don't forget to While Balance your camera to gel the truest colour
representation, This is particularly important when using artificial, or
mixed natural and artificial, light sources
• Use a stable camera mounting, particularly when the rjigftser is a
slow scan model, A tripod, copy sland or simply placing Ihe camera
on a solid base will tielp enormously in removing any unwarned
motion blurring which might otherwise mar the digitised image.
• When digitising Iron videotape wilh a slow scan dkjiliser it is essen-
tial to use a VCR which has a perfect 1reeze-frame facility, otherwise
the resulting image will almost certainly exhibit teanng or olner arte-
facts caused by any slighl movement which might happen when ttie
tape is paused at the required point,
• Use good qualily tapes and keep your video deck in top working
order, taking particular care 10 Keep <ts heads clean Where possible
(ie il your VCR and digiliser can handle it) use VC signals instead of
regular composite ones, as these will give significantly increased
digitising quality,
l
digitising variations which need explaining.
I've already mentioned slow and fast scan
digihsers, but whal exactly are they? Well,
there's certainty s due in the names!
Slow sear* digitisers grab and convert the
incoming video signal (let's think of it as a
single, full-screen image) in small chunks
and the whole process can take from sever-
al seconds to over a minute, depending on
ihe Amiga, the digitiser, and the grabbing
resolution.
STATIC
Since the grabbing takes time, it is essen-
tial thai the image remains absolutely
static during the entire operation, olherwise
blurring or image break-up could easily
happen.
This can easily be achieved with a well-
mounted camera, but digitising from video-

tape requires that the source VCR has a
rock- sol id freeze-frams latility.
Fast scan digitisers contain a frame
butter - a dedicated memory area - which
is used to continually sample the incoming
video, frame by frame.
When the digitising process is Iriggered
the video frame currenlly stored in the
frame buffer is frozen and held as long as
required. Consequently, the captured frame
can be digitised very quickly because the
video picture is already stored in the frame
buffer,
However, even these real-time digitisers
cannot capture continuous sequences of
video frames in real-time because of the
data transfer rates required, so I prefer the
term last scan" to "real-time 11 .
SLOWER
Also, it still takes lime to convert
the grabbed image into a formal which
can be viewed or stored by the Amiga,
especially where ihe Amiga has a
slower processor, such as a standard
6S000 chip.
The greatest advantage of fast scan digi-
tisers is that they can easily grab images
from moving video without suffering the
blurring or break-up associated with slow
Scan models.
Occasionally though, some moiion jitier
may be evident in a displayed image
because ol marked differences between the
two interlaced fields which make
up the complete video frame and it may
thus be necessary to de-interlace the image
Eg remove the jitler {and. as a conse-
quence, lose some of the contained picture
information}. But this is a small price to pay
for the ultimate convenience ot fas-l scan
grabbing. A.*?
There are two main considerations here -
Dili cost, .ami Ihen the type of Amiga which
you own, A top-notch fast scan digitizer such
as VLab YC or Vidi Amiga 24HT will set von
Sack upwards of £250, but will provide great
grabs in up to 24-bil quality, along with other
benefits, depending upon Ihe digiiiser model,
Slow scan digitizers are much cheaper.
but lack ihe finesse of the fast scan models.
Nevertheless, perfectly acceptable images
can be grabbed with such hardware,
provided that you have video equip-
ment capable of rock-solid freeze Irames-
The type of Amiga dictates whether the
digitising hardware can be externally or inter-
nally connected. Amigas without Zorro slots

Vidi Amiga 12 • Rombo Productions
A slow scan digitisar priced at well under £100, the Vidi 12 is an external model which connects to
Ihe Amiga's parallel port and draws its power from Ihe disk drive port, Grab quality is very impres-
sive at the price and Ihe unil is easy to set up and use
With both Y/C and composite inputs Vidi 12 should satisfy Ihe needs ol most hobbyists - and
even some professional applications, AGA Amigas are fully supported and there's a black and white
preview screen to lei you see the images you wanl to capture.
Requires at least 1Mb of memory and works wilh all Amigas (some- models may need a gender
changer or extension cable).
Vidi-Amiga 24RT * Rombo Productions
Rombo's newest digitiser is a real -lime, fast scan model capable of grabbing from either composite
or Y/C video and saving an image in impressive 24-bil hi-res overscan (as well as olher formats,
including ILBM, AGA and TIFF),
The 24RT altaches externally to the Amiga's parallel port and takes its power from an exlemal 9V
supply. Grab-quality is nothing short of stunning, though you really need a hard drive to store Ihe 24-
bit digitised images lhal can be produced, as they lend to be ralher large.
The software even includes a range of image processing lunetions which could well come in
handy wnen you need a special effect or two.
Vidi-Amiga 24 HT works with any Amiga (may need extension cable/gender changer) and requires
at least 2Mb of RAM. RRP £299, though should be available for less.
There is also a cut-down version of the 24RT - Ihe Vidi-Amiga 12RT. The only difference is that it
cannot grab inlerlace-d images [maximum size 720 x 368 pixels) hut it does cost around half the
price ol Ihe 24RT!
The only major drawback I could see with Ihe RT models was lhal the preview screen worked
rather slowly, though Rombo have just released a new version of the software so perhaps this has
now been cured.
VLab YC ♦ MacroSystem
VLab VC is a fast scan digiiiser which accepts eilher composite or WC video. Unlike the Vidi mod-
els, this one installs- infernally into an Amioa Zorro sloi, which gives it the edge lor speed over the
Vidi-Amiga 24RT. It also performs a few clever tricks, the best ol which is to grab continuous
sequences direct lo hard drive.
VLab grabs at exlremely high quality (up lo 24 bit} but, like Vidi-Amiga 24RT, it cannot capture
images in full video overscan - only up lo a maximum of 720 x 625 pixels,
VLab requires al least 1Mb ol HAM and Amiga DOS 2,0, A hard disk is almost indispensiWe - and
a definite requirement when grabbing sequences.
VLab Y/C costs a Utile more than Vidi-Amiga 24 RT but it does provide the convenience ol interna
mounting and sequence grabbing, among other benefits. On quality though, there's little to separate
the two,
There are, of course, a number of other digitisers on the market - some which are standalone,
others which are pari of another device (DCTV lor example).
Those mentioned above are my personal recommendations but of course you should do some
research rjf your dwo to find out what besf suits your needs and budget.

The video digitiser
Pie video digitiser or frame grabber captures art image which is in the
form of an analogue video signal and converts it into digital signals
which can be used and manipulated by the computer.
At the simplest level the digitiser samples the video signal waveform
and describes the high and low points of the wave in'numerical data.
This produces a black and white image on the computer, To get a
better image with more grey levels the video signal waveform is
sampled al faster speeds and at more levels m between the darkest
and lightest points,
Colour signals are split into their red, green and blue components
and each of these individual signals are sampled as if they were
nonochrome. Once in digital form: the red, green and blue data is
reconstructed by the computer to give a full colour image on, screen.
Splitter (Composite only)
Composite versus component
Video signals come in two main types, Composite and component
signals, Composite video is mosi widely used of Ihe two but
component video provides better quality
Composite video comprises a luminance signal (brightness), a
chrominance signal (Red, green and blue) and a synchonisation
signal all senl along the same cable.
Component video sends red, green and blue signals along
different cables.
Before a composite colour signal can be digitised it has to be split
into its componenl parts so that each part can be sampled.

Fortunately for British cuflure and her-

and teams have started to change this per-
ception of museums, and now, after nine
months of redevelopment, Ihe London
Transport Museum has opened its doors
with an exhibition thai tells ihe story of ihe
past In a refreshing and modern fashion
Situated in Covent Garden, the museum
underwent a complete facelift tor nine
months during 1993. Four million pounds
later, and the building lhai houses the array
of differenl transport machinery has
changed into a piush, up-to-date interactive

Interesting
New floors have been built and a mulli-
tudo of displays, video walls and simulators
installed to make Ihe visitor's tour as inter-
esting and informative as possible.
In the fmpressive-lookmg building with its
high walkway and spiral staircases, the
exhibition is broken into several sections on
differenl elements of travel - from 1930s
buses and horse-drawn trams to the latest
minibuses and underground system,
Each is a story in uself thai builds up like
a jigsaw puzzle inlo a full-blown picture of
how Londoners travelled in the past and
present.
This may sound similar to other muse-
ums but very soon you begin to sense a
difference. Walking through the display of
horse-drawn irams, you start to smell that
distinctive odour of horses and hear their
hooves as they hit cobbled streets in full
quadraphonic sound.
As you pass the first tram, a screen
placed on a stand looks back at you. On
closer inspection, il reveals a picture wilh a
sel of options at the bottom of it Pressing
on one of these flicks the nexl image on,
revealing another part of the story. Indeed,

should touching a screen bother them?
Sixteen te 35-year-olds are embarrassed a little to louch tbe screen,

tion, With the likes of the Philips CD-i brtrnj
at his heels, Tinker realised tha -
Commodore's CDTV. while having the ab*-
ity to provide the graphics required, couta
not deliver the clarity of text needed.
Having heard about the CD 32 and \\
highly useful expansion port, he drew up a
rough design for a module thai wo*
expand on the machine's basic facilities
and suit all the museum's needs.
After successfully outshining rival
machines, the CD3S was selected ag the
tool for the job, and plans for its mstafiattor
began.
Rob Lgnsdown came on board Io work
out how the CD unit would be usee
throughout every aspect of the mus-
Each human sense was to be given fuJ
attention - what people would hear as they
moved from exhibit to exhibit, what they
would smell and how they woufd interaa

what is usually a hands-ofl expert
As Lansdown enthusiastically points out:
:...•! •;. .fill about ms; von on i to i 1 Kitt
; •: j s to create the illusion of movement
r«->jgh the technology."
. first slep was to install the machines
e room lor efficiency and effective
— -oie-shooting management. "We were
-.rally given three months for installation.
~-<s was reduced to eight weeks and ihen
ftwfy down to eight days -the pressure
■as certainly on."
Next up was the CDx that enabled gen-
:■ rig networking all the machines to
Heir respective places, the ability to sense
right
track
touch screens and olher highly useful lea-
ryres.
After attaching these to each of the
CD32s and putting ihem in a rack system,
SflO cables were ted from ihe room to vari-
ous points all over the museum and 572
Hours were spent soldering and crimping
-~e leads.
The end result is that all sounds and
visuals, olher than the video walls, are con-
trolled by the CD32s and Arnigas.
The software used in the exhibits ranges
*rom simple touch-screen information bases
to three underground simulators. There are
over 40 monitors around the building, each
displaying information about a particular
exhibit and ils history.
Photographs from Ihe past are shown
and text can be viewed in either French,
Gentian or English; more languages will be
included when the system Is finished.
Reading through the text, you'll see a
particular word highlighted by a bo*, Press
on this and you'll enter a sub-section giving
lurther details on the particular subject
selected.
The disc accessing time is around two
seconds and the usual number of sheets to
look through ranges from 1 5 to 20 per vehi-
cle. Lansdown hopes to increase- ihis to 50
in the future.
Continuing around Ihe museum, one of
the most impressive and interesting exhibits
is ihe computer-displayed Underground
hypermap. It shows the Underground's
development Irom ils early beginnings in
1863 with the opening of the Metropolian
Line, to the 1990s.
3000 screens
Pressing an the date counter at the bot-
tom. Ihe CD32 adds the train lines at the
time they were built. Touch one of these
lines on ihe screen and you'll be shown a
close-up of lhal particular segment.
Press on an underground sta-
tion and information about rts his-
tory will be displayed depending
upon which year was chosen. Any
photographic images will also be
flashed up for your perusal.
This system runs from a 550Mb
data file that includes 3,000
screens and a program lo run it
all. This is all put on three disks
and played via the GD32.
To add to the Underground
experience even more there are three simu-
lators to lay your hands on. The first is of a
1938 train that is housed in an aulhenlic
train cab with fully operational controls
The front window has been replaced by a
computer screen that displays real time 3D
graphics provided by the highly powerful
Amiga 4000. The player must accelerate
down the tunnel and then come to a stop ai
Ihe station so passengers may get on and
off.
Sounds like simple stuff when compared
to the likes of TFX but given the realistic
setting and the highly attractive graphics,
this is an well executed idea. The other two

Inrfsi Information, and flab l*™J**n, Ji«ari at
thr muiiuin'i cnmmtlrricntiont and diipinyi
simulators, run by A2000s, show the IflSO
and 1992 models of underground train with
the latest being fully computerised, even
down to the speed the vehicle travels in the
tunnels.
The aural Side of the museum is well
catered tor loo - stepping on lo a old train
and sitting down, you'll begin to hear the
sounds of wheels on rails as l hey clank
their way towards a non-existent deslina-
tion. Speakers under the seal add to ihe
experience to give the visitor a feeling ot
motion without ever leaving the platform.
Go over lo the cduniry display which cat-
alogue ihe vehicles once used by the com-
muting public, and birds can be heard chirp-
ing away in the background in clear digital
recordings,.
Move upstairs lo the minibus sound sim-
ulator and the user is able lo sit in the dri-
ver's seat, go up through the gears, flash
indicators and open and close doors, all
accompanied by Ihe relevant sound effects
The wave of progress has not stopped
here, though. There are plans to enlarge
the amount ol information to The visitor, to
increase the number of screens and include
full motion video displays as well to max-
imise user involvement.
Coming away from Ihe new look London
Transport Museum leaves you with the feel-
ing that at least one part of our British her-
itage will remain in years to come because
the owners and curators decided to move
with Ihe times.
And il you're wondering what taste can
be sampled at the museum, then try l heir
cafe after you've finished your visit. Zii*f

ith the possible exception of the
Video Toaster, nothing has gener-
ated so much excitement as the
imminent arrival of the PAR - alias
Personnel Animation Recorder - from
Digital Processing Systems.
As the name suggests, the PAR card
was initially designed lo bridge the gap
between rendering and actually recording
Amiga graphics, In the past the only means
to achieve full-frame 24- bit video was to
record each frame individually onto tape
wiih an SP edit recorder.
Unfortunately Ihis kind of hardware costs
around £5.500 and if used heavnfy demands
another £800 a year in maintenance. In
addition the recording process is slow and
you're never guaranteed that The end result
won't suffer from drop- out or other imper-
fections.
S0ULUTI0N
As a result every serious Amiga artist has
been praying for a solution lo this irritating -
not lo mention expensive - problem. "As a
result, DPS set lo wort; developing a digital
video recording system which would pro-
vide superior quality, security and speed at
a much more affordable price-
Fortunately they didn't stop there, and
what was initially a single frame recording
system has now become a complete digital
audio/video system capable of grabbing,
editing and playing CD quality audio and
24 -bit I we video as well as compiling 24-bit
animation from ihe Amiga.
As you may have guessed ihe PAR card
is by no means the only element in this
seemingly impossible equation. In fact to
build the complete system you require two
Sound
solutions
*
*
Ihe system
worked peW
right ffDi tte
i
The entire system worked perfectly rigfol from Ihe off, but I rJid find one aspect o( the system m
difficult to master. As you already know the PAR can work in concert with the AD516 sampler
However the manual only managers lo lavish a couple of paragraphs on
subject of combining Hie Iwo. As a result I was breed to ligure out the best way lo sync She
cards togel her.
Thanks to Ihe SMPTE opfen on the PAR control software you can tell Ihe PAH to pause
particular SMPTE number is read internally from (he SunRize hoard.
Initially I iried in vain lo dive between the two programs in a rlesperale attempt to trigger ^
simultaneously. Unfortunately the end results were invariably disastrous
Fortunately in a rare spark of genius I remembered that v3.0 of ihe Studio 16 offers a pui
in/out facility. As a result I simply matched the SMPTE logger and recording duration in the
soflware lo Ihe punch in/out time within Stud«ol6 then hit record.
The SMPTE count started, Ihe punch-in began and ihe pause record on Ihe PA.R transport
trol was releasedsimultaneously, providing totally accurate sync between both audio and videc
addition cards. For sound you'll need the
SunRize direct lo disk recorder and for live
video recording Ihe DPS AD300Q capture
card.
If you flip to the System Essentials box
you'll see this adds up to quile a sizable
investment. However the system is com-
pletely modular. If you don't need sound or
live video capture Ihe PAR will function per-
fectly without them.
After adding ihe appropriate hardware,
the first port of call is the PAR control soft-
ware. From left lo right you have the list of
projects, a selection of animations within
ihe current project and a list of available
AmigaDOS volumes that you can download
Irames to or compile animations from.
At the bottom of the project window
you're provided with various options to initi-
ate and control I hem as well as a format the
dedicated IDE hard disk's.
In Ihe central files window await the
PAR'& own version of non-linear et
tools. Assuming you've already recc
various animations, it's here where th$
and paste begins.
Courtesy of the assorted buttons you;
join various anims to create limst
movies, split existing files into sm<
scenes, export frames as individual
ranges, fields or frames as either
Tanga or PAR files.
FRAMES
You can also rename anims as wot)
duplicate them. Like all the Other pr
mg tools, duplication will work on both
frames and ranges as well as offering I
added bonus of optional ping-pongHng
anim reversal.

As a result it's possible to completely auto-
mate anim generation. Simply tell the soft-
ware to render direct to the DDR volume
and PAR will automatically compile the ani-
mation as it progresses, saving you time
and better still massive amounts of disk
space.
And because Ihe PAR hard drive can be

addressed as a normal AmigaDOS volume,
it can also be backed -up using software
such as Ami-Back or Quarterback,
Although direct render-recording is easily
the most efficient approach it doesn't mean
yOu can't compile from existing files; in fact
as long as the files are saved as 24-bit IFFs
anything goes, with an average conversion
lime being one to 12 seconds for each
frame,
Al the bottom of the scene we come to
the heart of PAR control system with an
array of tape-deck-styla transport controls.
All the old favourites are available including
play, pause, single frame advance, first and
last frame, slow motion and of course
record. However buttons aren't the only
I must admit on first unpacking the complete system it does look
rather daunting with three cards, the essential IDE hard disk plus
connecting cables.
However after connecting the IDE and capture card to the Par
and sliding in both adjacent Zorro slots along with AD516. things
soon looked more ir end y
After replacing Ihe lid and connect up Ihe necessary audio ard
Video Ins and Ouls I sat down to install the software fully expeclmrj
counlless teething troubles.
However much lo my surprise the system was completely glitch -
free right from the oft - and remained so throughout ihe entire
review.
Not once did the system let me down, not a single frame was
dropped or sample misplaced, OK, you might eaped nettling less
from such expensive hardware, but believe me total reliability is a
rare thing and stands as a testament la the excellent build quality
and software development that's gone into the system.
For Ihe technophiles in the audience the combination ol the cap-
ture card and PAR provide composite, S-VHS and component video
ins and outs respectively, while ihe AD516 sampler provides eight
track recording and playback via twin siereo ins and ouls.,

means ol control. A slider has also been
added enabling the mouse to become a
graphical jog shuttle Sirnply click a button
and drag the bar to the frame of your choice
- all in real-time of course.
Above the transport control sit arguably
the mosi important elements in the entire
interlace On the left you have the frame
count in the PAR format, while the right
shows its equivalent in SMPTE tirnecode,
By referencing the two you can cut and
paste frame accurately and mirror the edits
m the SunRize sampling software lo main-
tain lip sync with the audio track,
Below the transport controls await a fur-
ther eight buttons plus the FPS - or frames
per second control. When the transport is in
slow motion mode, the FPS window allows
any sipw-motion speed to be applied
First up in the button bank comes the
grab option which allows you to take a sin-
gle real-time grab from the incoming video.
Alongside is the curiously tilled E/E button
which enables a live preview of the video
source - this automatically activates prior to
recording.
CONTROLS
Next comes the Irame or field selector,
basically this toggles the PAR belween full
interlaced video and individual video fields,
which is very useful when running in slow-
motion as interlace flicker can often be a
real problem.
Alongside field and Irame control comes
the GPJ button which apparently stands lor
general purpose interface. Basically this
allows limited remote control from either a
second mouse or edit controller,
Unfortunately the GPl demands some
basic cable construction to make the neces-
sary connections but once established
pause and play can be toggled directly from
the edit controller - unfortunately thal's as
far as it goes.
On ihe second row lurks the mono button
which surprise, surprise toggles between
colour and mono. Alongside this awaits a
tilm/video button which enables playback of
your creation at 24 FPS - alias movie
speed...

As you'va probably gathered I'm impressed if not amazed by the power, flexi-
bility arid reliability ol the system. However nothing is ever ■complelely perfect
and PAR is no exception.
First of all Ihe manual could do with some attention At Ihe moment it's
slightly vague in some key areas - with Ine connection between the PAR and
SunRize board being the most notable example.
In fact Ihe audio link could be made a iiflle simpler m general. Fortunately
SunRize are aware of Ibe problem and have promised a virtual PAR track in
Ibe nex! software update.
Hopefully this wii completely automate the audio/video connection, but
until then you'll be forced lo note SMPTE limes and cut and paste (be audio
and video separately,
Another omission is Ihe lack of an HS244 conlrol pori on the PAR card,
Withoj" such remote transport control it's impossible lo totally integrate the
PAR with an edil controller or A-B roll system.
However, leaving Ibese two curable problems aside, it must be stressed
that Ibe PAR system is nothing shorl of the nexl step up the evolutionary lad-
der for ihe Amiga and videography in general.
K3
Ihe field or Irame button directly above.
Lastly comes the all -important SMPTE but-
ton which produces a requester into which
you add the SMPTE trigger time tor simulta-
neous control of playback and
recording when running in
conjunction with Ihe SunRize
sottware.
In the bottom right await
another four controls which
combine to fine tune the incom-
ing video and aid colour correc-
tion. First up is the prefs
requester which allows alter-
ation of screen colours and
adjustment of the sync between
the PAR and an external genlock sync - if
selected, Next up comes Proc Amp control.
Basically this only applies to
systems running the AD3000
frame grabber. In addition to
being a capture card it doubles
up as a TBC which can colour
correct the incoming video.
In addition, it's from here you
select Ihe video source whether
il be Composite, Y/C, or S-
VHS/HiS and CAV - otherwise
' known as component. It's also
possible lo freeze the incoming
video and debne a range of ten colour cor-
rection presets which can be recalled to
improve the colour balance or
generate cc-lou rising effects
which are then passed onto Ihe
PAR during recording.
With the exception of the
Qui! button all that remains is
quality control. In Ihe case of
the PAR this is splil into two
elements. First comes the Q-
Factor, which as you've proba-
bly guessed refers lo image
quality, The higher the Q-f actor
the higher the image quality in the subse-
quent animation.
However to achieve higher image
quality you nnus-l increase the number of
blocks used to store each frame, Obviously
the bigger Ihe block setting Ihe more space
will be required for the subsequent
animation.
In addition the speed of Ihe target drive
also affects the maximum possible Q-
F actor. Basically (he whole process is a bal-
ance between image quality, disk space
and hardware speed.
BALANCING
Fortunately you're aided in the balancing
act by a requester which pops-up al Ihe end
of each recording telling you what the maxi-
mum block size was in that particular
sequence.
As a result you can adjust the block size
accordingly and re-record to attain ihe max-
imum storage space in relation to
the required O-Faclor. The maximum possi-
ble O-Factor is 23 which is akin to Mil- In
other words as close as you can get to D1 -
alias true digital video - without a digital
camera.
To give you a better Idea, Composrte
video is roughly Q-Factor 10 while S-VHS
lies between 12 to 14, and to achieve SP
Background
Although PAR is a spectacular development.,
il's woriti remembering thai it is Ihe first of its
kind. In fact ibere are already two systems -
from Macro Systems and H&lfrich - which
ere in Ibe Final stages of development and
promise a similar blend ol 24-bit video and
16-bit audio,
Belter still, both plan to retail at a signifi-
cantly lower price, and unlike PAR claim nol
to require a dedicated la-rj disk. However, I
find it very difficult lo see how they can out
perform the PAR when it comes to overall
quality and, perhaps equally importantly, reli-
ability.
quality you'd need a Q-Factor of maybe 1$
lo 17. When grabbing, live video time is ol
the essence and the maximum reliable G-
Factor I could manage was 1 3 with a max-
mum block limit. As mentioned, thu
translates to image quaJity above lhat
of a Betacam SP player - however due to
Ihe block sizes this would only alio*
about 5/6 minutes of footage on a on*
gigabyte drive.
However when you're compiling
animation from rendered images the O-
Factor could be pushed even closet
lo Ihe maximum - as ihe system has much
longer to process Ihe dala and compile iht
anim.
If you're willing to set your sights a Irate

Inkjet refills
Inkjet refills certainly aren't anything new but in
the past they've always seemed father expen-
sive. In fact in some cases the difference
between a rati II and a completely new cartridge
has been relatively nominal
With this the case, many - myself included -
have been put off the whole process, especially
when confronted with the prospeel of fiddling
around with syringes and bottles of potentially
messy ink.
However, Jarome Russell are determined to
revamp the appeal of the refill. Unfortunately
Ihey can't avoid the age old problem of syringes
hui ihey have done a remarkable job of bridging
the divide between hassle and expense As you
can see, the lairly
stylish bos conceals
nol one but iwo refill
bollles along with the
essential syringe.
fn addition you also
receive fairly extensive
instructions on how to
refill a number of the
more popular inkjet car-
tridges.
These include a step-
by-slep guide to (ho
Hewlett Packard, Canon
and Olivetti range nf car
irldges, although a little common senst
should allow pretty much any cartridge to i
recharged.
Unfortunately colour refills aren't an

OCR software on the Amiga for less than E50, surely nof Well unbelievable
as it may seem, the Amiga's teading OCR software has taken a dramatic price
cut,, down from a rathgr hopeful £265 to jusl C4S.95.
For those unfamiliar with the term, optical character recognition quite literal-
ly teaches your machine to read. Ad you need da is provide the text In the
lorm ol a scan which is then interpreted by the software. If all goes well it
should then produce an Ascii text file which can be loaded into any word
processor, DTP package or text eddor
As you'd expect such a system relies heavily on the quality of the scan, bul
assuming you can provide the necessary IFF. TIFF or IMG image the process
can be surprisingly fast, and better still accurate.
As you may have guessed via the reference to l he various file formats if
isn't even necessary to own one of the scanners directly supported by the
software. In fact any scanner (hat can provide a reasonable resolution mono
scan can be used with the software
As far a resolution Is concerned the higher the better, with the optimum
level being 400dpi, although having said that I've tested the software using a
JX10G colour scanner which has a maximum resolution ol 200dp». and the
results were still very respectable.
However no matter what scanner you choose it's a good idea to have a
Amiga Computing

fairly reasonable amount of RAM on-hand - around 3 to 4Mb <S probably a
sensible starting point.
It's not that the program demands a let of RAM, but unless you can scan
and process a fairly sizeable area and still retain reasonable resolution rt
would probably be quicker to copy the teat manuafly.
Considering the complexity of what's going on in the background, the pro-
gram itself is surprisingly simple and friendly - a classic example being the
ability to rotate and flip the scan to achieve the correct orientation.
Assuring you're happy wilh the Scan, what's next? Well that depends on
the scan itself. If it's pure text you can simple process the whole page
However, what happens if there's graphics and artwork spattered around the
scan?
Fortunately Migreph have come up wrth a solution in the form of a selection
ol basic drawing tools which allow the creation of boxes and polygon regions
whicn can be drawn around specific areas of text.
Obviously many publications - ours included - present their copy in
columns or legs, which if scanned from top lo bottom would generate an illegi-
ble mess.
However with the assistance of the drawing tools you can isolate each sec-
tion, column or box out. If you then seleel them m the appropriate order before

fJlultimedia speakers
Add-on speakers are nothing new to the Amiga
but in the past the vasl majority have been
rather shabby creations which on the whole
would look mere al home on the back shelf of a
Cortina.
However GoldenlMAGE are set add a little
glamour tg Ihe Amiga's audio- output courtesy of
their new Multimedia speakers. Unlike most add-
on speaker systems, this new range appear lo be
dedicated computer speakers rather lhan cheap
car speaker converts.
As you can see, styling has bean taken very
seriously wilh obvious results combining good
looks with logical design,. Controls are pretty
basic with a simple off Ion switch, and volume
control controlling both speakers.
The on!y minor annoyance concerns connect-
ing them to ihe Amiga. Unlike most add-on
speakers these rely on a stereo mini-Jack
for input rather than the usual phono
configuration.
As a result you'll probably be forced lo buy
additional cable from your local Tandy to make
necessary connections.
However in my opinion they're well worth the
additional effort and expense. It's lairly obvious
that the speakers are basically a port-across f
rem the PC which often uses such
connections for the various PC sound cards.
As for sound quality there's no complaints
whatsoever - especially considering the
price.
Two classic signs of dodgy construction are
speaker rattle and signal distortion al higher vol-
umes, But in this case there was no sign of
either, even when they were cranked up to full
volume.
However before you rush to the phone it must
be stressed that the Multimedia range are dedi-
cated computer speakers and arenl really much
use for anything else, The impedance is very high
and as a result (hey do need lo be driven tairly
hard.
In addition they are slightly lacking in bass
department and have a marked tenancy to buzz
slightly when used wilh anything other than com-
puter output,
Basically they look great, sound good and retail
at a very affordable £29.95. If you want lo
add a little glamour and improve your audio
at the same time they're a big improvement on
the opposition,

^mating the OCR, each is processed in sequence and compiled into the out-
put file in the correct order.
When the OCR is initiated it relies on mathematical definitions lo identify
each letter in combination with an optional interactive learning In the past
OCR software relied on raster-based processing which demanded a huge
database to which scanned data could be cross- referenced; fortunately this
ant the case wilh the Migraph software.
Thanks to Omnifont mathematical definitions, the database isn't required
and as a result much less space is needed, while accuracy and flexibility have
unproved considerably,
Of course, interactive learning hasn't been abandoned and after every OCR
pass you're presented with a screen which scrolls through the text picking up
any dodgy characters, symbols and grammatical marks that the software
doesn't recognise.
As a result you can train the software to spot irregular words or lypos which
can he appended to the existing dictionary. If you can't bo bothered editing the
tert manually it's also possible to let the software automatically scan the data
and correct any obvious mistakes.
Not surprisingly, rhe process isn't perfect with a common mistake being the
Mure to spot capitals and grammatically misinterpret marks. However if you
tend to process particular fonts on a regular basis even these errors can be
eliminated.
All in all I'm pretty Impressed. It did fall down on serif fonts more often,
although on sans serif typefaces il was often near-perfect. Basically if you've
got a lot ol text to convert and suffer Irom particularly poor typing speed, it's
j ; ust what the doctor ordered.
Add together a decent scanner, a reasonable amount ol RAM. the Migraph
software and a good word processor, and plagiarism couldn't be simpler.
Personally I found by far the fastest wonking method was to process the
scan, run Ihe automatic recognition sequence and then load the text straight
inlo a word processor - preferably employing the Collins Linguibase proximity
spoil checking system.
Once safely installed into the word processor, a quick spelling check usually
corrects any remaining errors. Finish off with a quick read through, and

Hi—
Buckets
of blood
star
etter
I'm writing lo say that I
think the debate over
pornography has
unfairly left the other
areas of concern in (he
shade. Yes, we need
lo know about the dan-
gers, and yes, our police should have better
* ays to stop this going on, and I agree that
|M tacky pictures you pnnted were neces-
sary lo raise awareness (though only just),
but what about violence?
Your raised the issue a long time ago in
an article called Seditious Sprites, but it has
n-ean a dead area ever since then. I for one
nave a 15-year-old son who has seen some
of the softer cornpyter porn and It's not
something I'm over-concerned about.
The images he has on disk are no worse
ttian (hose in Ihe tabloids, but some ot the
games he plays are much more worrying.
There are some in which the blood flows by
:rte bucketful, and characters scream very
convincingly (I think it must be samples
torn actors}, and these are his favourite.
II seems that the more violence ihe better
as far as he is concerned, and Ihe look of
concentrated glee on his face when he
; ays some of Ihese games is reminiscent
:f a sci-fi film noir.
Some of ihe language he is prompted to
jse when he "kills" his opponents has
:aused blazing rows, particularly when he's
shouting something like "die, you &"""!" at
trie screen.
This area of computer software might in
Tie past have been less worrying, but now
-e wants a CD32 and one of those
.-■dec cartridges so he can play CD movie
es.
I worry that Ihe games will he more vio-
:han most films, and I don't want my
son killing real people and enjoying il, even
f ihey are only on-screen.
Shouldn't there be more said about com-
rjier violence? Parents such as myself
«ould welcome more debate and some sort
of guidance.
Mrs Gitty Wesson, Cardiff
The question of excessive violence In
computer games has never been taken
. ery seriously because up until recently
.ery few games contained anything
other then cartoon violence. Any attempt
to address the issue was met by corn-
par i eons to Tom and Jerry, and to be
honest the comparison is a valid one.
However, as Video CO takes off. and
CD-ROM titles come to contain more and
more animation - much of it digitised
from real life - the Industry will have to
look long and hard at its policy In this
area
James Ferman of the British Board of
Film Classification told us two years ago
thai as soon as CO-ROM games con-
tained real-life Images, they would coma
under the remit of Ihe censors and
would be age rated.
With the current problems at the
BBFC, however, and the pressures of
classification on thousands of videos,
never mind a whole new medium. It Is
difficult to see how the present system
will cope.
Titles such as Voyeur on the CDI and
Demolition Man should, by Mr Ferman s
criteria, be subject to classification, but
as the TV, movie, and computer indus-
tries gradually merge, the dividing lines
will be blurred beyond belief.
We win be looking at this subject
again in the near future, examining the
extent of computerised violence and
how parents and others can be assured
that games are safe for their children,
but for the moment the only guide you
have is Elspa's new system and good
old common sense.
When in doubt over a game's content,
Imagine
that
check the magazine reviews and, If pos-
sible, take a look at the software In the
shop before buying it.
[Dili left out
Being a CDTV owner l am getting sick and
tired over all the hype about CD32 Yes if is
a great machine but what about its prede-
cessor?
CDTV owners, like myself, have been left
high and dry by Commodore, Whaiever
happened to Ihe rumoured trade-in offers
where existing CDTV owners could possibly
upgrade to the A1 200 or CD327
All we are left with is a bloody expensive
A500 with a CD drive shoved in a black box.
and a rapidly diminishing software selection,
I have written to Commodore on several
occasions regarding upgrades and trade-
ins, and I am stilt awaiting a reply, so on
behalf of all CDTV owners l would like to
ask you:
i Are there going to be any trade-in offers?
If bo, how much and when?
2 Are there any upgrades available to bring
I
While reading your March issue, I came across your
advert for a book called Undsrsianding Imagine 2 by
the author Steve Worley (page 157).
However, on making enquiries at my local bookshop
I was told thai this book is not on record, but if I could
give them ihe name of the publisher, they might be
able to order it for me.
Could you therefore please let me have ihis Informa-
tion or who I should gel In touch with so that I can get
hold of il?
Peter Sheldon, Bradford
The advert you refer to was in fact a mini-review
designed to remind new and old users of past
products which are still good value for
money, but we neglected to point out
just how difficult the book la to com* by these
days.
Sorry folks, but as Imagine 3.0 I* on the way,
Steve Is working hard at the next edition of the
book to Incorporate the new features, and as soon
as Understanding Imagine 3 Is available, wall let
you know.
The previous edition he a been discontinued for
ihe moment, and we can only suggest thai you
look for a US advertiser In a copy of Amiga World,
which can be found at some larger branches of WH

a rapidly dating machine up to the current
spec?
3. Is it worth drtclwg my COTV and saving
up to buy a PC which won't dale as last as
my Amiga?
Finally, I would Ilka to thanks Commodore
tor showing CDTV owners the kind of sup-
port we showed them when we bought the
machine - not.
Mr C Pollard, London
We ask^d Commodore on your behalf,
and the answer was that no such
upgrade was in the pipeline. To be fair to
Commodore, the rumours you refer to
would have been just that, and no
Commodore statement has ever actually
promised an upgrade, even though they
should really have done so.
Software support, as you point out. Is
dwindling, but there are still a lot of
available titles, even if the vast
majority of CD developers have
moved lock, stock and barrel to
the new 32-bit wunderkind.
You will find that as the year
drags on the CDTV will be more
and more e forgotten relic of the
past, if it hasn't acquired that sta-
tus already.
The idea in the first place was
over-ambrlious. and the attempt 10
kick start the CDTV market by releasing
the A570 was an ignominious failure,
mainly because it was expensive and
most users saw it as old technology.
As for existing upgrades, the only one
I know of in the UK Is offered by ZCL
(0543 414817) who will fit a 2Mb chip
HAM upgrade, but it's not cheap.
Your final comment about PCs not
becoming obsolete is a bit naive, consid-
ering the move the PC market has made
from B086 through 80286, 80386 {with the
various SX options) to 8Q4B6, never mind
the huge variety of conflicting sound,
video, and interface standards, all of
which will be obsolete when the Pentium
machines arrive In force.
The Amiga has used only four CPUs
and three chip sets in eight years {unlike

flmiga lagnuts
Firstly, Td (ike to thank you all for being
Amiga enthusiasts - il's nice to know that a
leading Amiga magazine isn't run by a load
of businessmen. However, if you are Amiga
enthusiasts, prove It by switching to the
Amiga to produce Amiga Computing when
PageSlream 3.0 is released.
Having received an information pack
from. Sofl-Logik, PageStream 3.0 has about
60 new features which aren't present in
Quark Xpress. With the superior multi-
tasking Workbench 3.0 operating sys-
tem, which far out-performs System
7, and the blinding speed of the
A4000. I suggest switching to the
Amiga.
I respect I he tact lhal the manag-
er ol AC may not want to dump
fits beloved Macs, even though
PageStream 3.0 is the best DTP
package available, but get the
message across nicely, and beg tl
necessary to use the superior Amiga
I'm sure you'll get your way in the end.
Imagine a network of Amiga 4000s all
linked to each olher, ail running the premier
DTP package. OK, I realise the Mac's child-
ish operating systgm and one button mouse
have a certain charm, but seeing as Amiga
Computing is always ahead Of the rest,
wouldn't using A4000s and PageStream 3.0
give you that extra boost over your
competitors?
Nathan White. Walsa.lt
You aren't the first reader to suggest
that we use Amigas 1o produce the mag-
azine, and you won't be the last, but to
suggest we switch from a program
(Quark Xpress) with thousands of hours
in a professional environment under its
belt for a new and as yet untried pack-

In favour of PxycStrtT.im 3.Q?
age is nothing short of madness.
Even if PageSlream 3.0 were available
on the Mac, it is highly unlikely that our
art editors would be switched from a
package they know to one which they
don't until it had undergone at least six
months of intensive testing by our sys-
tems manager, One bug in the wrong
place could cost us tens of thousands of
pounds.
In addition, Europress Is a large group
publishing over a dozen titles, all of
which are laid out on the Mac, and we
need the great degree of flexibility this
offers us.
We need to know that If we have an art
editor off sick or on holiday, we can
switch one from an Acorn, ST, PC or
Nintendo magazine to an Amiga maga-
zine with ease. Are you suggesting that
all these highly trained and highly skilled
layout specialists are retrained In the
use of a new program?
If PageStream 3.0 lives up to its press
releases, we will have no hesitation In
recommending it to anyone setting up a
DTP or magazine business for the firsl
time, but the program is a latecomer and
can't hope to break into Quark's existing
user base,
Sorry if you think this is in some way
unpatriotic, but it makes more commer-
cial sense than Amiga tunnel vision.
Your Comment article, "A disk too far" in April's issue may well have been a
valid point of view, but I felt it came across as an unnecessary
apology.
Without doubt you have given away some quality software on CoverDisks
over the years that I have been reading you mag, and even though some of
it has been of no interest to me whatsoever, I still think that 1 get value for
money.
As lor the free distribution of programs on CoverDisks causing damage to
the software industry, is this strictly true? It could be said that many of these
programs are in fact past their sell-by dales.
For example, you said that Kindwords and The Publisher are worth L'40,
yet they are both advertised in your mag at £29,99.
It's always possible that these Ireebie CoverDisks may even help the soft-
ware houses. I mean you usually give away early versions of programs, so
when readers use them they may well decide to upgrade.
What about the offers of manuals that go with most disks? As most ol
them are around the £10 mark I would imagine this would generate a fair bil
of income.
Anyway, please carry on with CoverDisks even if you have to cut back a
bit on the top quality software and maybe go for more shareware stuff, and
remember lha old adage: you can please all of the people some of the time...
Vic Storey, Dereham
l think I should ooint out to the rest of the readers that we didn't pay you
to write this letter. Yes, we will carry on with CoverDisks, and use
commercial software if we can find suitable packages, but though you
are correct in pointing out that a single software house will benefit
from a disk giveaway (they wouldn't do it otherwise), the point
made in our comment article was that the market as a whole might be
suffering.
One manufacturer of, say, graphics packages might make a tidy profit
out of a disk promotion, but the number of such packages sold In the six
months after such a promotion must surely be minimal, and this can't
help retailers or other software houses.
The policy of other magazine publishers is out of our hands, and the
expectations of Amiga users likewise, but there isn't e single Amiga
journalist (especially those who have to put these disks together) who
wouldn't welcome the chance to drop free packages altogether.

J ataly wish ta add CD32 capability. I seem
to have two choices - wail for the much-
detayed CD32 add-on for the A 1200 or buy a
standalone CD32 consols and a suitable interface
between Ihe two machines.
i would be grateM if you gould tell me what Ihe
txely release date for the CD32 add-on or console

i am fed up with waiting lor the add-on. but am
nervous thai if I buy a standalone console I won't be
ante to buy an interface at a reasonable pnee - and
■he add-on might subsequently have proved a
cheaper choice . Any advice?
F Fitch, Ipswich
j_ There are two possible options for CD32
L , and A 1200 compatibility and at the
momonl only one of these has been
realised. Commodore considered building
some kind of Interface connector that would
allow the A1200 to plug In to the CD32 but
apparently came across problems with the FMV
and decided to drop the project. However, other
hardware manufacturers have taken an interest.
The second option was taken up by
Microbotlcs and consisted of building a spe-
cialised keyboard, external floppy drive, printer
option and memory expansion unit that could be
manufactured to fit around the CDS 2.
The keyboard fits to the CD32 via an external
expansion device that connects to the CD32 SXI
port. It may seem a bit extreme but you could
sell your A1200, buy the Microbotfcs expansion
module and start from there.
You can find out more information about the
Mi c robotics expansion module by calling indi

mm I use an Amiga 500 with two floppy drives and a recently
J added hard drive. I have Installed Maxiplan onto my hard
drive but I cannot get past the "I need explode library v4"
requester.
i remarnber this was mentioned in an earlier copy ol Amiga
Computing hut I have extracted all the pages I wanled to keep from
past magazines and destroyed whal remains due to lack of space.
Unfortunately, I did nol keep the solution to the Explode library

mr- All AmigaDOS disks such as Workbench and most com-
L j mercial packages have the same structure. That is to
say that certain directories and files need to be present
on a disk for the programs to work.
When copying programs onto a hard drive it is not always
enough to simply copy the main program across. Any other files
that Che program needs, which are invisible from Workbench
may also need to be copied. In your ceae f explode.library v4.
Libraries are stored in the LIBS directory of your hard drive.
The explode.library is in the LIBS drawer on your Maxiplan disk
so you need to copy it across to the LIBS drawer on your bard
drive.
Insert your Maxiplan disk into the internal drive - DFO. open up
the CLI or Shell and type in the following;

to purchase magazines specific to these

Scouring the Amiga PD libraries, I was
unable to find any clip art on I he subject
of dentistry {I presume this is why you're
after clip art on teeth).
If you manage to get hold of clip art in
IFF form, which is the Image file stan-
dard for the Amiga, you should be able
to load it into any reasonable word
processor.
IBM and Macintosh-related clip art
may need to be converted to IFF if
you want to use il so you will need
some kind of image manipula-
tion program such as AdPro 2 or
MorphPlus.
Rcmember. most clip art is two colour
only - black and white. Colour clip art is
available but is normally only AGA-com-
patible so you would need to own an
A 1 ZOO or A4000.
If anyone has any knowledge of clip
art related to teeth, write in to ACAS and
I'll pass the information on.

he Dala Protection Registrar, Eric
Howe CBE, is the man who
watches Big Brother, and were it
not lor the efforts of his busy offices in
Wtlmslow, Cheshire, Orwell's nightmare fig-
ure couW be much more lhan just a fictional
vision of a fictional future.
Since the office was set up to administer
the Data Protection Act of 1 984. it has grown
in stature and profile from an organisation
whose aims few could understand to one of
the most important watchdogs of the digital
age., employing over 100 staff and answer-
ing thousands of enquiries every year. Last
year alone, a record 5,063 complaints were
received Irom individuals concerned thai
dala on them was being misused.
The role of the registrar is to monitor (he
extent and use of data held on computer
under the terms of the Data Protection Act,
and to enforce the law when companies or
organisations over-step the mark.
This involves both ensuring that compa-
nies register themselves as dala users and,
where necessary, bringing
proceedings either to the
courts or lo the Data
Protection Tribunal,
To begin wilh, when com-
puterised mailing lists
became one of the big
growth industries of I he 80s,
most of us were worried only
about aggressive direct marketing cam-
paigns and ihe often mysterious ways in
which organisations we'd never heard of
suddenly got our addresses and started
shoving garbage through our letterboxes.
These days, however, there are many
more serious issues which take up an
increasing proportion of the Registrar's time.
Lately, for example, we have seen tribunal
and court. cases over (he use of data by
poficemen. accountants, and cases where
people found out that they were, according
to their own mortgage lender, officially dead,
Schools. GPs and hospitals have also
coma under the Registrar's microscope and
been instructed to lighten up their proce-
dures, with the general aim that we treat per-
sonal data with the respect which Is due to it
rather than as just another commodity.

erised prying starts when companies are

required 10 register as data users - a status
which can apply to any organisation which
keeps personal' details (just a name nnd
address are sufficienl) on computer concem-
mg living individuals.
■Hg^ Upon registration the
uses to which data will be put
must be dearty slated, and data
must thereafter be used accord-
ing to general dala protection
principles set down by the Act
On the olher side of the
com. individuals have a right
under the Act - a right which the
Registrar will enforce by law if
necessary - to know of all data
held on computer concerning
his or her personal details, the
so-called subject access, nghl.
II Ihs information is inaccu-
rate, you can have it corrected
or deleted, and claim compen-
sation for any damage or distress
caused in such cases or by the unauthorised
disclosure of information.
Tu find oul what information, say. your
bank holds on you, simply get in touch win
the Registrar and find oul the name of the
person who the company has designated as
their Data Protection Officer. Next, write lo
thai person using words similar lo Ihese:
"t wish to make art application under
right of subject access as covQfed by spcligr
21 of the Data Protection Ac! (1984). Please
Supply nW vftih any and git intomtaUon which
you hold on me and lo which I am entitled, or
confirm that none is held. "
The letter should be sent by registered
post so that in the event of non-compliance
you can prove that the company failed is
respond within the statutory time limit of 40
days. A lee of up to £10 can be charged by
the data holder, so it is always best to check
belore writing and to include me correct pay-,

(formation or change it where needs he.
STIFF FINES
The Registrar can't arrest or imprison
jnder the Act, but slifl lines can be levied, or
rhe company can be de- registered, which
stops them processing personal data and
•iteclivoly puts them out of business.
Such sanctions will usually put the tear of
God into even (he mosl reluctant organisa-
•on. Test cases heard either in trie courts Or
tie tribunal process have, since the Act was
ijased. clanged, and in some cases
rrengthonerj the application of the
Registrar's powers.
Cases involving direct marketing firms are
(he most numerous,
perhaps, bul ihere has been a gradual
spreading of the Act into new areas.
For the future, as computerised data use
becomes more and more an everyday prob-
lem, probably line most limiting lactor is that
from one office comprising moslly of staff
answering telephone calls, the Registrar is
expected to monitor the whole of the UK. In
addition, public awareness is low, and few
people realise just how slrcng are Iheir rights
in this area.
This was greatly improved by an advertis-
ing campaign in the early part of 1993, and
by l he increasing suspicion of people that
someone somewhere knows loo much about
them, but there's still a long way to go. It is
estimated thai about a quarter of companies
who are required to register still have not,
and without an enlarged staff it is difficult to
The European angle
An EC directive issued In 1990, and revised in October 1992
has laid down the basis for a Europe-wide data protection con-
sensus by which the laws In force in the member countries cot
be harmonised and belter provisions be made lor cross-border
data transfer,
In particular, though, all have agreed thai personal privacy is
Hie most important concern, This will be balanced against I he
need for freedom of expression end a free press, and matters
ol public interest such as criminal investigations, bul the drift
back towards putting ordinary people's interests on a level
looting, if not better, with Ihose of big business can only be
good news,
Arguments are going on at European level over several
sticking painis, for example over how e item pi the press should
be and the power ol the EC Commission in (his area, but we
should see agreement some time next year and a new Data
Prelection Act In 1997.
Let's hope they get it right, and the balance between priva-
cy, personal rights, and the interests ol a Iree press Is struck at
a sensible level.
Amiga Computing
Eight golden rules
Every registered organisation must atude by the
principles,, laid out in Ihe Data Protection Act,
wh«h govern the way in which informalion can
be collected, stored, and used.
Ttiese are fairly broadly-slated, but ignoring
or breaking them can result in legal action, and
if an organisation has done so in relation to your
own details, you can make 1hem pay, All per-
sonal data held on computer systems most be:
1 collected and processed fairly and lawfully
2 held only for lawful purposes described in ihe
organisation's register entry
3 used or disclosed only for those purposes or
in a manner compatible win those purposes
4 adequate, relevant and not excessive in rela-
tion lo the purposes for which Ihey are held
5 accurate and, wheFe necessary, kepi up to
dale
6 held no longer than is necessary
7 accessible lo ihe individual concerned who,
where appropriate, has the right to have infor-
mation about themselves correded or erased
I protected by proper security
For example, if you pay your Council Tax by
credit card, the Sccal authority might keep your
name address, telephone number, and details ol
your card on record.
However, they woukl be hard pressed to jus-
1 if y keeping your card details, or even your
phone number on record, as neither is strictly
necessary for (he maintaining of a record of lax
payers, and woukl therefore fail to satisfy princi-
ple four.
If you moved away Iram the area, me council
would be obliged to remove all personal details
ihey had collected on you, thus adhering to pnn-
cspie six, and the council would not be able to
use the data for any other purposes, such as
passing derails to anolher department for a sec-
ond purpose.
see how the Registrar can quickly turn this
round
A surprising number of people don't Mly
appreciate jus! how much extraneous, inac-
curate, or downright damaging data can be
held on them and how quickly this can be
sent from one organisation to another wilh
sometimes disaslrous results.
We've all heard stories about those who
were listed as dead, or whose credil rating
was wrongly alls red, but Ihe few cases to
reach the media are only Ihe tip of the ice-
berg.
Jus-t about everything we do these days
can be affected by computer data, whether
financial such as when a loan application is
turned down lor no reason we can fathom, or
social, when everything from criminal records
lo ex-diredory phone numbers can go aslray
in the electronic jungle.
in an age when the world Is becoming one
huge information network, il is only Ihrough
the efforts of public watchdog bodies such as
the Registrar thai the rights of otherwise pow-
erless individuals can be protected. a%jt

CD EXCHANGE, Unit D5, HhTECH House. 10? Black
WARE
One CD-ROM formal has had a colour-
ful history in the Amiga market- CDTV
sparked it off before promptty dying,
-:- owed by the A57Q which suffered a similar
rate, and now we have the more successful
GD32. However, unlike in the case of PCs and
Vacs, there has never been an official
'-odore CD-ROM drive for use wilh all
;as.
Taking Frank Munkeri's PD filing system,
AmrCDRQM v1.4, and adding a user-fnendly
*-siaUar with plenty of additional ulilities. First
Choice have put together a CD-ROM package
»'tti any owner of a SCSI interface can plug
sraight into the Amiga,
To avoid lhe usual hassles with new filing
systems, installation is more or less automatic,
and after a few minutes of head scratching
w*r SCSI ID numbers, most competent users
srould be up and running
Mountsists are created automatically, and
"^e only complication occurs when the SCSI
•eat being used is not directly supported by the
retailer.
Five cards - Commodore's A300Q. A2Q90,
H, and A530, and GVP types - are
catered for, but if using another card such as
MS or ICD, rhe user must supply the device
-ame, which could terminally confuse the non-
SCSI literale among us.
Setting termination and SCSI ID numbers is
aaatty taken care of using a row of easy to
wch jumpers on the rear of the drive casing,
■yxsving at leas) one traditional area of has-
n mosl oases, therefore, installation
: - : Jd be relatively quick and easy.
CD unit supplied is an internal Toshiba
* the lype usually seen inside PCs.
Manufacturers 1 claims aside, it is no fasler than
are would expect of a CD-ROM drive, manag-
■Dund 140 10 150k per second on large
t*s and under 1 00k per second with smaller
**es but this is the norm for the medium.
Access times of over 200ms (as opposed to
-atj drives with under 20ms) mean that CD-
-OM discs drag (heir heels when used wilh
■orkbencti, bul again ihis is no worse lhan
: "V With its four times aversamplmg, audio
Cfafty won't impress hi-fi buffs, bul tor most
C0Hputer uses il is perfectly adequate
two audio player programs included on
f* setup di.se are PiayCDDA, a cranky CLI
- ty, and the Excellent Workbench-driven
jlksBok player.
=^yC0DA uses lhe Amiga's audio channels
jrd plays music via the monitor speakers,
s not a great listening experience, while
jL*e8o* uses only lhe headphone socket
-_-d on !he front of the drive from where
sund can be passed to an amplifier There's
tutlia CDs from Wfwkbmneb using
iuppU*d play*/ program*
(B-H0f}J storage could
trans farm the man we use the Amiga,
Steuie fiennedit looHs at an offering
from First Choke Computers
also a CD ripper program to grab samples
from CD al up !o 44kHz qualify, but lhe second
disk will be of most use lo non-musical users. H
coniains a variety of utilities lo enable the
unpacking ot ZIP and ARJ archives (both very
common on PC CD-ROM discs) and the view-
ing of GIF graphic files, among other formals.
FORMATS
Most ISO 9SS0 standard CDs currently
available include images in GIF or one of the
other formats popular outside the Amiga world,
and viewers for these types are mosl welcome.
The lile system will read Mac HFS and Rock
Ridge International Protocol as well, so there
should be plenty of material to choose horn.
Users aren't stuck with data files, however,
and il is possible to play a great many CDTV
lilies from lhe dnrve. You can't auto-boot from

f
CDC; (the device name the drive works under),
but running CDTV programs from Workbench is
as easy as running them from floppies, and
often a matter ot clicking on an icon. Some
CD32 games will also run from the drive, but in
most cases only if il is plugged* into an AGA
machine.
in all, this is a tidy package and a well thought
oul CD-ROM bundle. Despite the po-tential for
chaos when attaching an internal SCSI device,
the on-disk documentation and the Toshiba
manual should see the average user Inrough,
and once set up the device becomes a steady
and reliable Am igaDOS drive.
I would have liked a more exhaustive Amiga-
based manual, and a help section for ihose new
to SCSI and CD-ROM, but the friendly installer
removes much of the need for these.
Given the right audience - multimedia, DTP,
and music - this solution to the CD-ROM prob-
lem should do well.

*o
he stars, the planets and even ihe
moon have long been a source of
terrestrial fascination to the human
race. Early civilisalions, from the
most sociologically advanced to the mosl
scientifically retarded, slared with wonder at
the night sky.
They revered bodies like the sun and
moon as god deities, and, even from very
early limes, embraced a relationship
between the solar system and ourselves.
While ihe night sky has changed luile.
humankind's perspective of the universe
has drastically altered. The earth is no
longer flat, the sun no longer revolves
around our tiny dustbail. and the moon
(alas) isn't made of cheese-
More importantly, studying the night sky
no longer affects the gravity of your pocket
(o astronomical proportions. A cheap
refracting, telescope costs very Utile, and
computer power has meant Ihe home
enthusiast can calculate movements and
distances using something humble - like a
68000 processor.
HEAVENLY
With all this computational power avail-
able it comes as some surprise that there's
very little software available, short of share-
ware and PD, that covers this area.
However, bach in 1989 Virtual Reality
Laboratories unveiled Distant Suns. Since
its inception, programmer Dave Schreiber -
himself a keen astronomer - has sought to
combine accurate data with colour graphics
in a bid to recreate the heavens Inside the
confines of a monitor,
Tho latest modification, tr&Q, allows the
user to view the heavens in glorious 256
colour (or the first time. Before any of this
can take place however, you're going to
have to install Distant Suns on to your
machine.

to Install to, so you'll have plenty of time to
brush up on your constellations.
Once the program has completed its
installation, re-booting displays whatever
you've set up as the default. It's probably
as well to configure Distant Suns in
Planetarium mode, which displays the
whole of the northern hemisphere, and by
this virtue is an excellent base to begin any
work.
Displaywise. Distant Suns conlalns all
stellar activity down to a magnitude (bright-
ness) of 5.6 in its Core Slat database.
However, in addition to these 4,000-odd
stars. Disiant Suns contains a second
datghE3.se composed of small files.
These allow you to access more accu-
rate, compressed regions of the sky,, and
make more detail available, while preserv-
ing both RAM and hard disk space.
Sut by far the most impressive feature is
the Hubble Guide Star Calah
Originally constructed lo alio
astronomers lo find stars which are ck»i
to brighter objects in the night sky. x**
Hubble Guide contains over 16,000.00C
objects down lo magnitude 18.

part extra speed to the options more
. jsed.
"ne travel
Accessing your favourite objects, or, find-
<; -^w features, can be achieved in a vari-
sf ways. Because Distant Suns has
mm 14,000 years of galactic activity stored
. ■- ' its core (dipp ng as deep into the
■■■Is of history as 4,500 BC. and soaring
to toward inlo the lenth millennium), you
■ :- -ess any given overt!
The most accurals and concise method
finding objects at a given time is by using
re environment feature. This not only
■lows you to type in the exacl dale and
•m mat you'd like lo witness, but also the
Mansion and declination of the object (the
system astronomers use lo pinpoint
BfBCfs, which is analogous to latitude and
engrtude).
ng matters one slep further, you can
change your local co-ordinaie$ using
azimuth and altitude sellings. But, what
it mean in layman's terms?
Basically if, for example, you wanted to wil-
•<?ss Orion as its two red giant stars tum-
-jsrvA inlo the Giza sky above the pyramids
r I 5QCBC, or wilness the planetary align-
•ent of ihe eighties (which was mcideniaHy
■ne^nt to have caused the destruction ol
Earth), you can, by simply entering the
SOnect information into the environment bar.
Once you've accessed a particular zone
:' space you can zoom or pan out of any
-imp tttn environment menu you c««

Thi proprr motion option al/gwf you
to track Ittm mnvrmeitl of Hw atmn
given area. Again Ihis is accomplished by
using the depth of field option from the
menu, or using the newly-implemented icon
bar,
There are also a full range of olher
facilities which will lascinale enthusiasts
and novices alike. Distant Suns allows you
to plot the motions ol the stars, and l rack
their movements using the star trails
gadget,
While performing such a task, the user
can display ihe constellations as they would
appear in the night sky, add lines to aid
their recognition and prmt every star's name
on-screen.
Stars can also be centred en the monitor
and all relevant information, such as size,
distance, luminosity and in seme cases a
picture obtained.
Taking matters one step further, the pro-
gram includes a facility which allows you lo
replicate dawn, dusk, and even lets you dis-
tort your view with a city glare effect.
As an added treat, and Ihe author
encourages turning oul tha lighls. you can
ask the computer to simulate the twinkling
of the stars.
Deep space
Distant Suns also encompasses facilities
to view deep space objects like siar clus-
ters, nebulae and galaxies. Included on the
menu bar is an option lo I urn on Ihe NGC
(New General Catalogue) and Messier
objects.
Again, once centred using Ihe mouse,
information pertaining lo them can be
dragged from the menu bar,
Closer to home. Distant Suns has plenty
of features to aalisly observation of the
solar system. The user can observe
sunspots, lunar eclipses and a whole hosl
of planetary motions in action.
The key to this device is through ihe use
ot a clock, which is situated within the
menu. This allows you to speed time up. or
slow it down, depending on what you are
viewing.
As you can imagine, some of the images
that can be simulated, like Ihe orbit ol Pluto,
take hundreds of years to complete their
course. Whereas, a solar flare during an
eclipse will last only seconds, and needs to
be slowed down.
Distant Suns also incorporates comets
and asteroid bodies, and allows the user to
do everything, and view everything in the
same manner as the other aforementioned
objects. But, one of the most enterprising
features of the program is its ability to cre-
ate your own real-time animations, The
process involves using tools from the
menu, and, or, ARexx commands.
For the mosl part animalions can be
completed with ease using the programs

tions ARexx scripting is required, £&

In (onclusion
In terms of features, Virtual Reality Laa oratories have included just
about every object that lights up Ihe nighl sky, It's also impressive thai
every lacel wilhin the structure of the program is accurate and faultless
lo a lee.
The images, if a little scarce (considering il's an AGA version!, are
concise, and ihe rendering of the stars particularly impressive The
same can be said of the animation creator and Ihe planetary orbit and
moiion animalor-
Since v4.0, Distanl Suns does feel as 1 hough it has matured some-
what, and the inclusion of an icon bar. for the more regularly used
options, seems like a natural progression.
Distant Suns is involved enough to keep even the keenesi of ama-
teurs at ihe technological sharp-end of astronomy for Quite a while. As a
tool for the keen observer. Distant Suns can'l be faulted, in faci iis even
been adopted by leading space writer and expert Arthur C Clarke.
But, aside from enthusiasts and schools 1 see litlle mileage in Distant
Suns for any other user, By Ihe virtue ol ils subject mailer. Distant Suns
has lo tackie complicated astrophysics, and can in no way be deemed
as a package with which to learn.
The bottom line is that Distant Suns is a firsl-rate astronomical aid to
the amateur, the lecturer or the determined novice with a fascination but
no praclrcal experience, and is probably a waste of money to those who
|ust fancy a slide show,
While v5.0 for the Amiga is sUH a disk-driven affair. CD32 owners may
read wilh some interest that a CD-ROM version for the Apple Macintosh
range ol machines has jusi been released
Intrinsically, the program is the same, bul Ihe number of images that
a CO can store has meanl that a much more diverse range of images
are available io the user
As well as differed views ol major objects within the solar syslem,
the CD version boasts photographs of deep space images, like the Crab
Nebulae.
As an added bonus Ihis version of Distant Suns features movie
sequences of all the plartels in our system. While there's no news from
vR Laboratories about a CD32 version, watch this "space" for updates.

oftWood's Final Writer word
processor was launched test year
lo l he acclaim of most reviewers
and was held hy many to be the best word
processor around-
However, perfection is hard to come by,
and Ihe program had a few tailmgs With the
release of Digita's Wordworth 3 h Softwood
oouldn'i have picked a better time lo hit back.

pigeonholed, Final Writer has always been
Ihe better DTP and layout specialist of the
pair, and Wordworth more ol a word cruncher
fof long documents.

program and flaws in Final Writer's text han-
dling reinforced the distinction, but since the
inilial launch of both word processors, the line
has become a hazy one-
Last month's review of Wordworth 3
showed that, though the firsl release was
badly bugged. Digiia had tafcan a leaf from
Softwood's book and converted to the school
of glitzy design.
With new layout features such as flexible
lert frames and templates, Wordworth threat-
ened to pull the rug out from under
SoltWood's feet when the bug-hxed version
was dispatched to users
To be fair, Final Writer v2 is not a new ver-
sion ot the program but a relatively minor
upgrade which deals mainly with improving
trie user interface, The only new feature is a
revamped Undo/Redo which now works with
both text and graphics.
In lime-honoured fashion, the Undo option
will reverse any lexi editing action, but it will
now worfc m a similar fashion with the pro-

gram's built-in drawing tools, However, no
Undo is allowed for actions carried out on
imported images, and as Wordworth's fadlily to
retain the original image's proportions when
scaling on-screen removes much of the need
for a graphic Undo, Final Writer doesn't have
an edge in this department.
Where the Softwood offering has always
been in Iront is in its approach to style tags and
user-defmed button bars. Unlike Wordworth,
Final Writer can utilise up to eight lulty-cus-
tomised hanks of buttons, though it would be a
rare user who needed more than (wo,
A new touch for this release is that the but-
ton bars can be detached from the ruler bar
and pigged anywhere on-screen in a Floating
(oolbon. The mam advantage of this is that
instead of using the usual button to flick
one bank to the next, the user can resize
floating toolbox so that all toots are avail
from one window,
Some users will never need to make us*
floating toolboxes such as this, and there l
Ihose who detest the things, but it is a!
hnttur to offer the Option.
By hiding boxes behind documents so
only the depih gadgets can be seen it is
sibie lo keep them out of the way but
instantly accessible, so (here's no reason
lo make use of them.
With the tool strip out of Ihe way on its j
toolbox, the space it occupied in the top
can be used to display the new drop'
menus for paragraph style and font contra
TRADITIONAL
In almost exactly the same way
Wordworth 3, fonts, foni si^e, and text s
can now be selected from quick and e
drop downs rather than the traditional
used in Final Writer v1 .
However, the way in which the font s.
drop-down is presented makes il a pap
use. Rather lhan present the four or frve
common font sires, the huge menu
appears $hows every point size you
imagine, forcing the user to scroll thn
them.
To test how tar this ridiculous feature

On a brighter note, Final Writer's style
, for which Wordworth still has no equrva-
i. can now be placed in a floating lockbox
S ffieir owrv for easy use during document
ImiUUdy.
The style lag approach is by lar ihe oesl
tar users who use a package for DTP-like
cos, as any style the user likes (or headlines,
voters, endnotes, and so on can be
iriigned to a style tag which can then be
applied to any piece of text with Ihe dick of a
■utton.
As v2 retains the ability to define lurtction
»eystrokas for each style tag, Final Writer
.sera now have three different methods to
3Tcose-frwn.
Keyboard jockeys with good memories can
stefc to F-keys, traditionalists can use the oid
aienus, and bright young things can fiddle

Another new toolbox is provided for the
oofs, which normally sit on Ihe ruler bar, but
wuch most users will want to replace with the
«*w paragraph formatting controls, Once
susied from iheir old position, they can be
aaced in a resizable tool box ar just left in the
•xtemess as the user sees lit.
Containing the rotation, master page, cut,
pasta, and other useful tools as they dD.
~£se are too-ofton-used features to relegate

tie designers allowed lor a toolbox option so
H missed opportunity
I
Final Wnler 1 had few damaging faults, but those which if had
have not been changed or improved with this release, and it has
to go down as a missed opportunity.
Of most note is the fad lhal there is sti! no Stow Codes option
lo enable trie user to view carnage returns, spaces and labs. In
day-lo-day use this is a feature which would be rarely used, but
when it is required, such a& when text is imported from another
package or from another machine, il is an essential basic feature
tor any word processor.
Reformatting an alien document, arid having to guess where
the double spaces, tabs, and carnage returns are can be a night-
mare to make Michael PortllD as prime minister seem almost
dream-like. Another annoying feature is Ihe autD-save, which am-
ply reminds the user when a certain amount of lime has passed
ratrter than automatically save Ihe document as it should.
Wordworth 3"s equivalent can he set (or either true auto-save or
just a reminder, making it much more useful,
Graphics scaling on-screen, though much faster than any
other package, has always suffered from Ihe lack of a proportion
option, and il still does,
Few imported images come in al jus; the right size, and usually
have to be seated to fit the rJoeumenl, When this happens,
though, Ihe Final Writer user is forced to mess around until tbe
image is back in its original shape.
As Ihe disk we received from disiribulors Gordon Hanrad is a
Beta last version, it is possible thai these Iweaks will still be car-
ried out, hut there's nothing to suggest that they will, Fingers
crossed, folks.
Ihat wa can have our cake and eat it.
Configurability, already a great strength of the
package, has been further enhanced, and
the program's modern feel is now
even sironger. In addition, Final Writer's
huge advantage in graphics handling speed
has not been reduced so far by Digila's
efforts
However, given thai no new power fea-
tures have been added and thai Wordworth 3
{once the bugs are teed) now has many lay-
out advantages over its rival, it looks as
though SoftWood's Ihunder has been well
and truly slolen.

Any potential has been swiltly replaced by a haggard
and ancient game design. Jlaccid graphics and lasting
appeal of ihe type usually associated with a funeral.
The end result is a product Ihal looks as if it has
been thrown together in a week, and is
sold purely on its name lo the unsus-
pecting games-player.
Ocean have a long history of {mainly
film) licensing, from the low standards
of Darkman. Dennis and Terminator 2 lo ihe highly
playable likes of Robocop 3, Addams Family and Ihe
Untouchables.
The Manchester-based company have achieved a
financially successful series ol products, but have they

Son't pick up a film licence sometimes until
■rthin a year of the intended release ol the

You desperately try to coincide the
-*fease of the game with |he film. That's
secome an impossibility.
• Is that one of the reasons why some
'tcences can be so bad - because they
mv rushed jobs?
- 1 Depends now you define Dad. bul yes

I also accept thai ihe time constrrsmi
**iich is pul on developers must invariably
stub creativity. II you lake the old adage - a
game is never finished - then they are
developing a game in a shorter period; of
ame than they would like.
Ihe computer game has become big
business, a money-spinning and
accepted part of merchandising, but
is ihe customer getting uafue for
money? Mm Phillips interuieuis
Oceans marketing manager
Simon ftliy about their past track
record and what the future hofds
'•" Is using licences simply a sate route
to financial gain?
It isnl a safe route, nothing in computer
games is a safe route...
S Is it safer?
It is safer in lerms ol marketing but we
pay a substantial amount ol money for
a licence because it quite simply provides
a massive pre-awareness of a product
before we've even started, I say
Jurassic Park to you, you don't need
tg- know anything about the computer
game except what the content ol ihe
titln is.
If 3 say lo you, for example, Jelly Boy,
which is game lhat we've got to sell this
year, it's an excellent critically-acclaimed
game bul I have to start al square one
which means - again - we have to spend
A ^ Kids m si
I sophisticated
nmu tliBt mou haiiii to gut the
prndurt riglit first so that anij
liEBIKf? m pith up is just
an aid to the
meeting
more money on the physlcai markeling of
the product
M Oo you think, then, that there is a bet-
ter chance of people buying a game if it
is a licence?
Yes certainly, especially in the
peak Christmas periods when a parental
purchase becomes paramount - a
parent pops along to the local store and
wants to gel a game for their son or
daughter.
They usually have no knowledge of com-
puter games, If they're lucky, they've hope-
fully managed to suss out which games
machines they have to buy lor. They then
look around.
They've heard about this nasty Mortal
Kombal thingy. So, for example, [they'll
sayj: "Oh, there's Jurassic Park, now thai
was a greal family film," or whatever:
"Home Alone, that was another great family
film, I'll pick that up."
There are cerlain values that people
attach to films, lor example Jurassic Part -
quality, entertainment - that are then sub-
liminafly associated wilh our product.
S3 On a more personal note, they go into
the shop and buy the game- The kids get
it and it's a poor game. Does that bother
you or is It a case of "this is business
and that's the way it is ?
GS Thai could be very crass lo say "this is
business, pal, that's the way il is" because
Ihe proof of lhal pudding is ihal this market
is now completely driven.
It has changed, it is completely driven by
market... err, by school and playground
buzz. We might receive great day one sales
for a poor product, but it will (hen fall apart

very quickly. What we managed to achieve
wftti Jurassic Park was great day one sales
because of parental purchase, because of
the "must-have" buy, because of The
reviews that were already established in ihe
press
Then word gets around that it is a good
game Kids see their mates playing it and
want to gel it themselves and so you contin-
ue on aline.
You can draw exactly the same analogy
these days with films themselves having
massive first weekend sales before dying
because the public don't like them.
You can't kid Ihe public, and kids are
so sophisticated now that you have to
gel Ihe product right first SO that any
licence you pick up is just an aid lo the
marketing.
That sounds quite pompous from where
you're sat. coming from Ocean who
have produced both good and bad games
over ihe last few years in relation to lilm
licences, but our altitude has completely
changed.
K if companies do continue to produce
poor licensed games, do you feet that
they wili do the software industry more
harm than good, with customers becom*
ing wary and less eager to part with their
cash?
I think that those companies would be
fools to themselves. I don't believe thai it
will damage the industry because ihe kids
have plenty of olher choice from original
product coming through to vote for with
their pocket money.
So, you'll continue lo get vast amounts of
money paid out on film licences, but then
they'll get dumped somewhere along the

S! Are there any promises you'd like to
make about the standard of licensing i-
the future?
Fi8 We will pick up a licence where wa fee»
that we already have a project in develop-
ment that can be associated with tha*
licence.
For example, let's say we've been •.■
ing on a space game for a year and then a
space movie comes along the lines of Star
Wars We would pick up on that and couM
easily adjust the graphics having goi the
gameplay right first in association with the
film.
You cannot release a film licence prod-
uct these days which isn't going to get a 9C
per cent review. We do work on such smal
margins I hat we have to see a return.
5H How has Jurassic Park been selling'
y Due to it being a good game and recei-.
ing 90 per cent reviews, it has been our
best selling game of all lime, and that was
a combination of the ability lo market a higf-
profile licence, and having a good game
working together in the toughest Christmas
market we've ever had,

Disasters, and especially the human vari-
ety, have on regular occasions spawned
thousands of articles, television pro-
grammes, books and, in some cases, films
Most exploit, bul some highlight the
human strength and courage thai it took to
overcome the tragedies. Il's good to see -
as ever - the public domain showing its
metal in dealing with a horrific incident in a
responsible and professional manner.
Titanic is a comprehensive and exten-
sive telling of the ship's birth and subse-
quent death. As well as this, there entries
on other aspects of the now legendary ship
that its makers said could never be sunk -
the media reaction, the people on board
and even the list of the food used in the
galleys. This is all supported with music,
digitised stills and diagrams.
Produced on the Scala multimedia pack-
age, the proceedings have a very profes-
sional and polished look, with many useful
options and help keys. There is also a
wealth of text to plough through which is
well written and, lo be honest, gripping and

instantly generated a strong fee lino; of
curiosity; I rarely receive anything from
Italy, and after viewing this game, I hope HI
be receiving a tot more,
On loading, a menu paps up ashing if
you'd like to see the video story or plough
straight in to the game. Choosing (he
game, a series of reasonably drawn pic-
lures appear telling the story of the hero
and how he and his venous friends travel
through time until one of them, Jessica, is
held hostage by the Blue Skunks,
The basic premise is to find your lost
time-travelling scooter, fill il up with petrol
and get her in l he right time period- After
this interesting plot, i was eager to press on
with the game jlselt?
Once loaded in, trie player is presented
with a large central sprite in the vein of
Conrad out of Flashback, the plalf arming
classic from last year.
The man can be made to jump, leap,
run, walk and crouch - albeit not as
Smoothly as Delphine's creation but for PD.
it's impressive stuff. As far as I could tell,
the object is to run around hilling the
enemy, that come in the shape of robots
when Inside the complex at trie beginning,
and caveman when oulside in the jungle
and caves.
Chasms need to be leaped, and on dis-
covery of the scooter, a logic puzzle game
pops up where you have to work out how
lo get the wretched thing started.
Dinosaurs are another common occur-
rence, with lyrannosaurus rex and trice r-
atops making appearances in a couple of
cut-away scenes encountered during your
travels
The graphics, are of a high standard, and
although no way as smooth as Flashback,.
are still pleasing to the eye. The mam criti-
cism for mosl of the game is that there is
realty not that much to do other lhan hit,
leap and run along. Having said that, there
is enough here lo warrant a purchase to
see a large Mile with some excellent touch-
es. Keep it Doming, Italy,

Heading For Home
Produced by: M Bariham
You may recall a couple of months back when I award-
ed the Animation of the Month lo a title called Don't Go
in the Cellar lhat I referred to the maker as a American.
Imagine my horror and humble apologies when I
received a phone call From Basildon that in lacl the
aulhor is an Essex man called M Bareham. So now you
know. Fortunately, here's another opportunity lo witness
some more of his ray-lraced, 30 worh in the form of
Heading for Home. The actual anfm is very short indeed
- about ten seconds in all - and shows a spaceship
coming in lo dock at a space station. The work is cer-
tainly accomplished but the length of the piece (under-
standable really given the power and memory needed to
run it) is a bit of a let-down, especially after his \a\
piece Don't Go into the Cellar.
Having said this, if you're after a show that boasts the
usual high standard that trie Amiga can achieve in at
things Disney and if you have a machine with at least
3Mb of RAM and Kicksian 2 or higher, then induk:-
this luxury.

stats key and you'Fi get a lull run-down of your
glittering financial future. Also included on Ihe
disk, is Sppndwise, a program thai helps
analysis everyday expenses and suggests
items thai you can cut down on to save
money.
The utility is presented as a series of lists
with the names of expenses such groceries,
petrcJ and so on. These are all lully change-
able and you simply enter via the keyboard
how much you spend each week on each
item. You then prioritise it by entering a num-
ber from up to 10, which indicates an
essentia! expenditure such as having to catch
the bus in io work, in the morning.
Once all this has been inputted, the user
can call up a stats list with a breakdown of
what money is being spent and suggestions
for where money can be cut.
These are both interesting and useful plan-
ning tools which in Ihe words of the author,
help you live fife to the fullest. Hmm...

Blaster
Programmed by: J R Evans
Whatever people's tastes are in games,
whether it be arcade, strategy gr adventuring,
there always seems to be space for a good,
hardcore shoot.- 'em-up thai hoasls addictive
and exciting gameptay.
Take Blaster - it looks from the screen-
shots as being a pretty average locking title
but put the disk in the drive, pick up the joy-
stick and you won't put It down lor quite a
while. There are no frills, just thrills as pea
guide you ship through a vertically scronm
blast fest that nearly reaches the frenz*
heights of Llamatron.
There are apparently 140 different types ar
enemy to lake pot-shots al and this along
guarantees lhat there's always something a
little different to see on each planet - even
they are difficult to see sometimes against
the background.
The action is fast and furious and new
tels up tor a second. Throw In a pile 3
power-ups that descend from Ihe top ol rh»|
screen increasing firepower, lives and mar> '
other features, and you've got a game that]
you must buy - so why are you still reading''

y keen to start
programming or to
add to your
,jg skills?
Paul Bueraa guides you
through the most popular
programming
packages For Bask,
[/[++, and BBBhB assembler
ore and more users ore
fiithKi
learn their first programming language or develop
their programming skills by learning another lan-
guage. Now, all computer languages have their good and bad
points but there's no doubt that, from an academic view-
point, some ere more intrinsically sound than others.
In fact you'll often hear people explaining why their
vourite language ia best. The Iruth of the matter is that
nga are not quite as simple as the good versus bad
waters would suggest and the languages which make the
■test Impact on the academics certainly do not always
| ou I to be the most uselul for doing real programming,
■practice this means that Ihc question you should ask is
"ether a language is good or bad but simply whether ft
will suit your purpose. You also need to choose a language
that you are likely to be technically comfortable with, other-
wise you may get disheartened with your lack of progress.
If, tor example, you are new to programming and want to
find some way of making a start then Basic is a very good
choice; &6000 Assembly language la not,
If on the other hand you are an already competent coder
who has moved to the Amiga from some other machine, you
may be ufiwarried by the prospect of learning C or
Assembler and may even decide to dismiss the use of Basic
altogether. One other practical point that everyone should
consider before investing in a new language is whether the
product is likely to be well supported or not. How can you
tell? Well, one way is lo read round-ups like this!
Amiga Computing
PROGRAMMING
Beginners
Microprocessors, such as the GSQxG chips used in
the Amiga, work by executing instructions built out
of binary numbers, Although it is possible to pro-
gram the 630x0 at this numerical machine code
level most programmers use somelhing called
Assembly language' that allows 680x0 instructions lo
be written in terms ot meaningful names
For instance, lo move a number from a processor
register to a particular memory Location you would
use a Move instruction. Assembler programming is
still closely related lo the underlying processor chip
and for this reason it's called a low-level language.
On the Amiga this type of coding requires nol only
knowledge of the Motorola 680x0 chip but an in-
depth understanding of the Amiga's operating sys-
tem as well.
Make no mistake, it is a big challenge simply
because there is so much lo understand but, having
said that,. Assembler programming is addictive.
Among the more dedicated Amiga programmers,
&80sQ coding is very popular indeed!
ERROR PRONE
This type of programming is, however, lime con-
suming and error prone, which is one ot the reasons
why a variety of so-called high-level, easier to use
languages have been developed.
Basic is a high-level language that was originally
designed specifically for teaching programming to
beginners - the initials actually stand tor Beginners
All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code. Al one lime
almosl every available version of Basic was differ-
ent, so it got a bad name for portability.
Nowadays the situation is much better at least as
far as the core Basic commands are concerned. i r
recenl years the language itself has also improved
immensely (it's become far mere powerful) bul il is
still an easy language to learn and use, and that is
its main claim to fame.
The C language gets a lot of coverage in the
Amiga world - namely because it is the most impor-
tant of all Amiga languages (much of the Amiga's
system software was written in it},
C is a compiled high-level language that is flexi-
ble enough lo allow programmers lo do things that
were previously only possible with Assembler.
This, plus some portability advantages, is the rea-
son that C is popular as a systems programming
language.

due in part to the tact that the compiler dri-
ver, called SO, loads shared libraries to
handle the various phases (instead of
invoking multiple programs) and uses
Global Symbol Tables (GSTs) which
remain in RAM between compiles,
Other recently added enhancements
make it possible to designate auto-initiali-
sation functions thai are called prior to the
mainj) Tuncticn being executed, and auto-
lermination functions (executed when the
mam code returns).
The compiler can also generate code to
allocate a new stack lo be created if the old
stack runs out (good news lor coders who
write a lot ot recursive code) and do a lot of
other clever things besides,
All of the important compiler options con-
cerning compiler operation, error message
genoralion, file listing, code optimising,
linking and so on, are done through an
Intuition-based (gadget and menu-driven)
interface called SCoptions.
The debugger, called Code-Probe, has
been given a number of additional
enhancements In the lalest release bul the
main one is that it can now be used lo
debug C++ files,
The compiler's Iront end (called sc)
which previously accepted C source code,
Assembly language files, object tiles and
libraries, now accepts C++ files as well
Ailhough the C compiler parts of <he pack-
age can be used wilti a (loppy-based sys-
tem, you need a hard disk in order to use
the C++ translator,
If you are contemplating moving to SAS
C/C++ then you ought to assume Ihatl
hard disk and a couple of megabytes-
RAM are essential - She package will l^er
work, like a dream.
SAS C/C++ is a brilliant package
superb documentation (about 1 .500' pagei
of tutorial and reference material) and a
exemplary record of user support. There ■

Honed for completeness because
C, at one time, provided the main coi
tition to Lattice C - the package t
became SASC.
Aztec C had many good points and
Lattice it came with its own set of proi
ming utilities (editor, librarian, debu
and so on) and a comprehensive fu
library.

Standards Institute (ANSI) standard for Ihe C lan-
guage and this improved form is called ANSI C. I
Given the choice it is ANSI 1 C that you should learn
to use.
C++ {pronounced C plus plus} is an object-orient-
ed programming language developed dunng the early
90s by Bjame Strou sirup's language team.
Throughout its development there has been a strong
commitment lo keeping C++ compatible with the C lan-
guage. C++ supports a construct known as a class
that allows programmers to define objects which 1
have their own data characteristics and
procedures
The end result is that ihe programmer can work
at a much higher level of abstraction and so avoid the
nitty-gritty details that make the programming of larger
projects difficult in other languages You should not
attempt to learn C++ until you are happy with C itself.

Assembler packages
Devpac 3 msoft
Price: £69.95
There's no doubt that the current Devpac package provides the ultimate Assembler envi-
•cnment available to the Amiga user at the present time. The editor offers multiple-file edit-
: with full mouse-controlled cut-and-paste and the ability to open individually scrollable
-Hjfliple windows on the same tile-
There are bookmark set and locale facilities, macro recording facilities for memorising
•eypress sequences, and powerful Assembler/debugger integration options. As well as the
editor, Assembler and debugger, the Devpac 3 package includes Blink, the Amiga's Hi n ke r,
a Commodore FD file converter and ether utilities,
Ygu also gel the Assembly language include files, the standard run-time and link
varies plus extra mains and. iff parse libraries), startup-code etc. and some example pro-
-ams to get you siarted.

Macro 69 is a fuNy featured, cuslornisable, macro assembler for the 690x0 family of
processors- Some of its more unusual features include support tor Copper list program-
ming, AFtexx control-lability, and recognition ol bolh old and new styte Motorola 680x0
syntax. Unlike Devpac it doesn't have an easy-to-use front end but most coders tend in
fact to use Macro 68 in conjunction with an ARexx -based editor anyway.
An awful lot of work has gone into Macro 68 and in practice ihe Assembler does admit-
tedly provide lacilities lhal advanced coders could find very useful.
Having said that, it is not a particularly user-friendly package and in particular the man-
ual lacks the soft, tutorial-style sections that make life easier for the newcomer to 6&0xC
coding.

Compilers uersus
interpreters
?
We mentioned the basic difference
between these two approaches In
the jargon buster. To elaborate: If
you've got a loop which contains
instructions tnat are executed 500
times then the interpreter will trans-
late Ihe instructions within the loop
500 times as well as executing them
500 times. A compiler-based equiva-
lent does the translation once and
generates the necessary machine
code,
Whan the program runs, all the
translation stuff has been done
already - so compilers produce pro-
grams which in general will run
faster.
The disadvantage of using a com-
piler is that the process of creating
a program is more complicated. You
have to write Ihe program (the
source code) using a text editor,
then compile it.
EXTRA CODE
After that you may also have to
link extra code (start up code, code
for library functions and so on} to
your program and only then can it
be run.
If there is a bug then it's back to
the editor, make the necessary
changes, recompile and so on.
There are quite a lew tools around
which help automate the process
but it is still fairly long-winded.
Most interpreted languages are
guile the opposite - you can slop a
program, make changes, and then
Immediately run the new version.
Interpreted languages are good for
the development stages. Compilers
are good for speed.
Some languages, most notably
Basic, come in both forms and often
the compiling facilities are so well
integrated into the system that you
barely realise thai a compiler is
being used.

Amos
Europress Software
Easy Amos: £34.99
Amos Professional: £49,99
Amos Professional Compiler: £34,99
Amos Is a games-oriented Basic-siyle language which was designed to be
easy-to-learn, powerful, and lo lake full advantage of the Amiga's graph Scs
capabilities. It succeeded on almost alt counts and, as a mult, has become
very popular indeed. Easy Amos, which is a sort gf cut-down core version of
the language, is a good package lor the total beginner.
If you are already familiar with another Basic, or just wish to have access
lo some ol me mare advanced facilities right from the word go, Ihen opt for
the Professional version because it otters tar more powerful features. Amos
Pro, incidentally, provides some very powerlul Amiga-specific
graphics/sound extensions.
The long-awaited Pro Amos compiler arrived during the latter part of last
year and, depending on itie code being compiled, it can offer anything from
slight to substantial speed increases.
The compiler is compatible with both the Easy Amos and Amos
Prolessional packages but users ol Easy Amos ought really to consider
upgrading In Amos Pro belore getting Ihe compiler.
Blitz 2
Hohhyte
Price: £44.90
Bhlz Basic is getting quite a name
for itsalt because, as a compiled
Basic, il is extremely fast. Programs
are normally created using BUtl
Basic's integrated editor/compiler
environment (called TED)- and an
interactive run-lime debugger is
prodded which allows you lo exam-
ine Ihe nigh-level source code as a
program runs. Compiling itself Is
easy - you just select compile/run
from tho menu. Because ol its
speed, Blitz is great lor games pro-
gramming and this Is where its
main applications lie, Bill? 2 pro-
vides some language extensions
called NowTypes and built-in list
processing support.
A lot ol the Btilz 2 facilities seem

particularly suitable for those
approaching Basic for Ihe Nrsl lime.

GFA Basic v3. 52
O3/3 Media
Interpreter: ESQ
Compiler £30 extra
GFA Basic has been around for some time and although it still ftas lis r
core followers, interest from new users seems to be on the decline. Part of V
reason for Ihis would seem to be due lo a general lack ol support Irom Daa
Media. The package runs OK on older machines, and on the A12D0, but sina
the release of GFA Basic v3.5 (the last major release) problems have appoa
on some machines
GFA Basic doesn't work properly on the A3000 or A4000 machines and
users of varices non-standard Amigas also seem to have had a variety of profr
Isms. Since it seems that there are no planned GFA upgrades or official fixes ~
eliminate these problems at the moment, we can only suggest, until were hear
something positive from Data Media, that you do not jump on this particuU*
bandwagon.
HiSoft Power Basic
HiSoft
Price: £29.95
This is a perfectly respectable Basic which has been around a while and 3
aimed primary at Workbench 1 3 users who wan! a cheap entry point into Base
on the Amiga.

HiSoft Basic 2
HiSoft
Price: £79 (expected)
Unlike the Amos and Blitz olfermgs. HiSoft Basic has not been specif II
aimed at the Amiga games programming fraternity. It has simply been a verj
good, and very well supported, compiled Basic whose core lacilities are broadw
compatible with Microsoft -sty te Basics found on many other machines.
As we are going to press, a new version - called HiSoft Basic 2 - is being |
released, which offers a host of new Workbench 2/3 oriented goodies.
One major effect 0! the changes will be to make using the Amiga's Intuition
and olher operating system functions much easier. We also know that a new
editor (actually the one that is now provided with Devpac) and a debugger are
being provided.

PD packages
As well as commercial products you'll
find many languages available as
public domain offerings, Cursor is a
Ihree-pass Basic compiler for pro-
grams written In Amiga Basic. NorthC,
PDC. and Dice are papular C compiler
packages. There's even Gnu C+ +
available far the more ambitious
among you,
Charlie Gibbs deserves a mention
here because he produced what is
now a firmly established and respect-
ed, freely distributable Amiga
Assembler package, called A6Bk. It
forms the basis of a lot of PD
Assembler packages and you'lE also
find it present on almost ail public
domain C compiler disks.
Uerdict
Best C compiler
SAS C/C++ - there is absolutely nothing lo touch this package.
Needless to say it also provides the besl C++ translator as well.
Best Amiga Assembler
Dovpac 3 - again this package is in a class of its own.
Best Basic
We're going for Amos because it has proven support, good
Amiga-orignted facilities, and a large established, and relatively
content, user base. But the improved HiSofl Basic 2 (which we've
not yel seen) is also certain lo be very good indeed.
Since this could provide some surprises at might well be safesi
to wait until the Hi Sort offering arrives before making any
commitment.

function library: A set ol prewritten

interpreters and compilers: High-level
languages come in two main varieties -
interpreted and compiled, The differ-
ence is that with an interpreted lan-
guage you'll write a program and as it
runs the interpreter takes each state-
ment in turn, translates il (ie works out
What it has tc do), and then executes
the equivalent machine coda.
opt! miser: A program thai can automat-
ically rearrange, ie optimise, the code
you've writien lo make il either run
faster or occupy less space.
portable programs: A program is
portable If lis source code can be trans-
ferred from one lype of computer to
another and made lo run wiih litlle or no
changa. The more work needed to gel
the program running qn a new machine,
the lass portable I he code is considered
to be.

Amos
Europress Software
Easy Amos: £34,99
Amos Professional: £49.99
Amos Professional Compiler: £34.99
Amos is a games-oriented Basic-style language which was designed to be
easy-to- learn, powerful, and to take full advantage of (he Amiga's graphics
capabilities, U succeeded on almost all counts and, as a result, has become
very popular indeed. Easy Amos, which is a sort of cul-down core version of
the language, is a good package for the tolai beginner.
11 you are already familiar with another Basic, or just wish to have access
to some of the more advanced lacilittes right from the word no, then opt for
the Professional version because it offers lar more powerful features, Amns.
Pro, incidentally, provides some very powerful Amiga-specific
graphics/sound extensions.
The long-awaited Pro Amos compiler arrived during Ihe latter part of last
year and, depending on ihe code being compiled, it can offer anything from
slight to substantial speed increases.
The compiler is compatible with bolh Ihe Easy Amos and Amos
Professional packages but users of Easy Amos ought really to consider
upgrading lo Amos Pro before getting the compiler.
GFA Basic v3.52
Data Media
Interpreter: £50
Compiler £30 extra
GFA Basic has been around for some lime and although il still has its hard-
core followers , interest from new users seems to he on ihe decline. Part of Ihe
reason for this would seem to be due to a general lack of support from Data
Media, The package runs OK on older machines, and on the At£00, but since
the release of GFA Basic v3.5 (the last maior release) problems have appeared
on some machines,
GFA Q-asic doesn'l work properly on the A3000 or A4O0O machines ana
users of various non-standard Amigas also seem to have had a van&ty of prob-
lems. Since il seems that there are no planned GFA upgrades or official fixes tc
eliminate these problems at the moment, we can only suggest, until were I
something positive Irom Data Media, that you do not jump on this particular
bandwagon.
HiSoft Power Basic
HfSoft
Price: £29,95
This is a perfectly respectable Basic which has been around a while and -s
aimed primary at Workbench 1 .3 users who want a cheap entry point into Base
on the Amiga.

Price: C4B.90
Blilz Basic Is getting quite a name
for itself because, as a compiled
Basic, il is estremeSy last. Programs
are normally created using Blilz
Basic's integrated editor/compiler
environment (called TED) and an
interactive run-time debugger Is
provided which allows you lo exam-

gramming and this is where Ms
main applications lie. Blilz 2 pro-
vides some language extensions
called NewTypes and built-in list
processing support
A lol ol the Blitz 2 facilities seam
lo be aimed al the more advanced
programmer and this coupled to the
rattier unusual language extensions
means thm it doesn't seem lo be
particularly suitable for those
approaching Basic for Ihe fir*! IJnM

HiSoft Basic 2
HiSoft
Pries: £79 (expected)
Unlike the Amos and Blitz offerings, HiSoft Basic has not been speed
aimed al the Amiga games programming fraternity, It has simply been a
good, and very well supported, compiled Baste whose core facilities are D r :
compalibls with Microsoft-style Basics found on many other machines.
As we are going to press, a new version - called HiSoft Basic 2 - is
released, which offers a host of new Workbench 2/3 oriented goodies.
One maior effect of ihe changes will be lo make using Ihe Amiga's
and other operating system functions much easier. We also know thai <
editor (actually ihe one that is now provided with Devpac} and a debugrjw
being provided.

PD packages
As well as commercial products you'li
find many languages available as
public domain offerings. Cursor is a
three-pass Basic compiler for pro-
grams written in Amiga Basic. NorthC.
PDC, and Dice arc popular C compile' 1
packages, There's even. Gnu C++
available for the more ambitious
among you.
Charlie Gibbs deserves a mention
here because he produced what Is
now a firmly established and respect-
ed, freely distributable Amiga
Assembler package, called A6Bk. II
forms the basis of a lot of PD
Assembler packages and you'll also
find it present on almost all public
domain C compiler disks.
Uerdict
Best C compiler
SAS C/C++ - there is absolutely nothing to touch ihis package.
Needless to say it also provides Iha best C++ translator as well.
Best Amiga Assembler
Devpac 3 - again this package is in 3 class of its own.
Best Basic
We're going for Amos because ll has proven support, good
Amiga-oriented facilities, and a large established, and relatively
content, user base, Bui the improved HiSolt Basic 2 (which we've
not yet seen) is also certain to be very good indeed.
Since this could provide some surprises il might well be safest
to wait until the HiSoM. offering arrives before making any
commitment.

?
function library: A set of pre -written
useful subroutines collected together in
a separate file.
interpreters and compilers; High-level
languages come in iwo main varieties -
interpreted and compiled. The differ-
ence is that with an interpreted lan-
guage you'll write a program and as it
runs Ihe interpreter takes each state-
ment in turn, translates it {ie works out
what it has to do), and then executes
ihe equivalent machine code.
opllmiser: A program that can automat-
ically rearrange, ie optimise, the code
you've written to make it either run
faster or occupy less space.
portable programs: A program is
portable if lis source code can be trans-
ferred from one type of computer to
another and made to run with little or no
change. The more work needed to get
the program running on a new machine.
the less portable the code is considered
lo be.

REVIEW
plical drives haue recently taken a bit
7 ol a back seat to the DAT tape as a
means of mass storage and back-up,
•fiey have always ottered a few major
manages, and with 4lh Level's Mo-Miga 1,2
1 1 drive the format looks set to make a
m-9 back in professional circleS-
"-•e Mo-Miga unit is a 5.25in disc offering
F"Wj per side for a total of 1.2Gb driven, kte-
t oy an A4000 equipped with the A4091
SW| hgnd drive interlace,
such, it ts a professional user's device and
me which is alined primarily at those with hugs
a requirements such as vldeographers and
fcscjans. Fitting either internally or externally,
«* arive worfcs laster than SCSI-1 hard drives,
: - its final form wilh qrs-board 1Mb RAM
acne, should be even faster.
~iE manufacturers claim 2Mb per second
nmum transfer rate under AmtgaDOS and up
i 5Mb in last SCSI-1! burst mode - figures
ttwct\ we couldn't test as we looked at a pre-
XDOudion version of the unit.
What was surprising, though, was (he speed'
t ne drive running, under standard ArnigaDOS
D --g syslems, Jusl under 1 .4Mb per second
tarsler rates (DiskSpeed 42 with 512k buffer)
y« an access lime of under 40ms gives the
a^e a huge advantage over all previous optical
xvces (though SCSI -ll no doubt has a loi to do
«ei this). Mo-Miga will of course work with cider
- -I interfaces, but performance is reduced.
Much of ihe unit's speed is gained Ihrough
".to-Miga device driver. This important piece
:* coding sits between ArnigaDOS and Ihe drive
and cornrT.ur.ica.es direclly using SCSI com-
-ands, so that when Mo-Miga"s own filing sys-
tem is used a faster synchronous burst mode
can be utilised for streaming dala to disc very
quickly. Under Ihe more usual desktop working
conditions, Mo-Miga handles smalt files well
considering Ihe disadvantages ol the optical
medium, A new filing system developed by 4ih
Level which will be shipping wilh the linished
drives, will handle small files much more effi-
ciently and laster than at ihe moment.
From ils performance on our pre-production
unit, the new system seams sel to make Mo-
Miga a very useable general purpose drive.
Other software supplied wilh the device
makes it possible to set up a cartridge lo work
like a bulletin board. The Audit program is
designed lo enable the system operator to track
all user of the machine, and can be a valuable
aid lo security.
Passwords can be set, and various levels ol
user access set so that some may perform all
function whereas others can only read data, and
so on. Security can be varied from partition to
partition and disc to disc, so lor example it is
possible to allow full use of general software
while locking people out of sensitive dala areas.
01 her software includes Mo-Miga Exchange
to allow users lo swap discs without worrying
about unauthorised or untimely use of their data,
and a variety ol utilities for controlling the discs
ihemserves, such as a blanker lo stop Ihe disc
spinning after a period of inactivity, Ihus saving
wear and tear
In all. this is a well Ihought out and lairfy com-
plete sysiem rather than simply an optical drive,
and one which should render sterling service in
any professional environment.
Home users might never see a Mo-Miga, but
BBS sysops, videographers, and musicians
would be advised lo give (he unit a try. /, [*?
Half a Hlo
i
Mc-Miga's capacity and speed makes it an ideal drive for mulilple- partitions
holding a variety of programs. The problem with using removable media in
such a way. however, is thai the Amiga can become confused when whai ii
Ihought was a fixed hand drive ll no longer Ihere. Swap cartridges and you
can quickly run into problems. To body-swerve ihe danger, Mo-Miga's soft-
ware uses a startup script (or each partition which contains the assigns and
olher commands relating lo any software held on thai parlition. In addition,
the partitions are automatically dismounted.
This approach requires that the user moves any assigns Irom ihe user-
startup script to Ihe relevant partition startup script, bul once done Ihe
advantage ol not panicking the Amiga every lime a disc is ejecled makes
Lp for Ihe initial hassle.

unRize Industries have held Ihe top
spot in the serious sampling busi-
ness for years wilh a combinaiion ol
ent sound quality, unrivalled flexibility,
natural affinity lo other third-party hard-
r» and software.
the fate of new competition Irom both
Bwerools and the Toccata direct-to-disk sys-
ns SunRize have decided to consolidate
v position with release of version 3 of their
9uoo 16 control software
Aihough the actual hardware remains iden-
ia the new front-end certainly shouldn't be
msidered as a simple facelift The mosl
rcortant elemenl of the new package has to
at 3ie ml reduction of drag-and-drop lechnolo-
a» as part of Cuelist control.
For those unlamiliar with the software. Ihe
;i is basically the program's internal
-^:.»encor. Alter recording and editing your
sarnples, il enables you lo arrange them over
: hi tracks of Ihe AD5 1 6 or tho f our ol the
1 12.
n a brilliant piece of design, Ihe Cuelist has
men completely overhauled and now pro-
Mies a graphical rather than numerical
approach to the problem of sequencing
samples.
• iter shll. everything is now totally mouse-
rven wilh a new drag-and-drop approach

•cabling graphic representations of each sam-
ple to be shunted between tracks and along
Tib lime-line wilh a simple mouse click.
Perhaps even more important is the arrival
-J a range ol tools which allow samples on the
same track to fade, crossfade or butt up wrth
adjacent samples - again no typing required.
Thanks to ihis leature, hours - if not days -
y painstaking editing can be avoided, and
more importantly any alterations are complete-
y non-destructive. If you don't like a mix or
yossfade, simply grab the sample and slide it
dose; or further away, it's literally that simple.
As you'd expect the software offers a vari-
ety of linear and non-linear fade styles - all
jser definable of course - which whan added:
10 the unbelievable simplicity of simply sliding
the samples back and lorth makes Siudio 1 5
easily Ihe besl pro audio solution on the
machine.
in addition lo sample mixing you're also
provided with punch-in/punch-out recording
direct into the Cuelisl, which again is a dream
for prolessionat musicians and v»deographers,
Add to thai Ihe finishing touch of totally
automated pmg-pongmg - again wrlhin the
Cuelisl - and you have the makings of a mas-
terpiece. For those unfamdiar with musical ter-
minology ping-pong ing is simply a means of
Ihe Rmiga's tedding IB-bit sampler
just gat a major refit Paul Austin
Buefsees the impmuements
Digital
upda
combining existing tracks into a mono or
stereo pre-mix - thereby freeing the compo-
nent tracks lor fresh recording.
Combine the power of the Cuelisl wilh the
program's existing ability to record and
adjust fader and pan positions in real time
and you haive arguably the best truly non-lin-
ear direcl-to-disk recording and editing sys-
tem on any platform. However in the case of
SunRize, internal talents are only the begin-
ning.
As you may already know, Siudio 16 has
a natural affinity with the Amiga's premier
sequencing package Bars &Pipes Pro 2.
thanks to the ability of bmh SunRize boards
lo generate SMPTE timecode which can be
passed internally to software.
MULTIMEDIA
Belter still, the SunRize controls can even
appear within the B&FPro2 interface. As a
resull you're Iree lo combine Ihe Midi and
multimedia talents of the standard
sequencer with the sampling exploits of
Studio 16
As you'd expect, the primary use for Ihe
SunRize wilhin B£PPro2 is to provide live
virtual tracks which sync precisely with the
Midi output of Ihe sequencer, thereby brings
vocals, guitar and other lomnerly analogue
elements into a truly digital environment.
It's also possible to append individual
samples to specific Midi notes, thereby
enabling drum tracks and vocal hooks to be
built-up (rem the profusion of CD-based
sample libraries on the market.
In addition lo software, Siudio 16 also pro-
vides a direct link to digital video via the
same SMPTE generation used by B&PPro2.
As a resull. either the 12 or 16-brt board can
be linked directly with Ihe PAR animation
recorder lo provide a 16/12-W1 soundtrack to
realities
1 software is
in mu opinion
the only [mile option far
grope inualuBd it piifessml
accompany Ihe 24-bit video Of Ihe PAR card.
In addition, if the PAR is used in combina-
tion with the optwnal AD300G TBC/real-time
digitiser, you have perfect audio/video sync
which could even enjoy simultaneous Midi
and multimedia support from B&PPro2.
As you've probably gathered, the combina-
tion of ihe SunRize hardware and the new
software is in my opinion Ihe only credible
option for anyone involved in professional
Amiga audio.
Although the opposition both offer excellent
sound qualily, they simply can't match up
when it comes to usability. Neither offer
SMPTE or Midi support at the moment, and
certainly can't compete when il comes lo join-
ing lorces wilh other products.
Unfortunately there's a price to pay for near
perfection and in the cass of the Studio 16 it
comes to a heart stopping E2QC for the soft-
ware upgrade alone.
Obviously if you're happy wilh the existing
software stick wilh it, but if you're a heavy
user who's looking for improved productivity
and unbelievable ease of use you'd be insane
not to invest in this excellent - if rather expen-
sive - upgrade. js^j

The 1994 World Cup is coming this Summer and along with it are about a billion
football games. The one which looks like becoming the firm favourite for the top
spot is. Kick Off 3 from Anto.
It's the follow up to the legendary Kick Off 2 which shattered salts records and
soared to the top of the charts. Kick Off 3 premise* to be packed full of dynamic
and totally unique new features.
Unlike its predecessors, the third game in the series will be viewed from the
side rather from above. New features include special moves such as flick ups and
diving headers and 30 different set plays for corners and free kicks giving the
most realistic dead ball situations ever.
Over 2,900 frames of animation have been used to create smooth, fast flow-
ing action which the creators say make Kick Off 3 the most realistic soccer game
ever.
We shall see if what they say is true when it arrives later this year, but by all
accounts Kick Off 3 is going to be absolutely massive,

The Return off Dark Seed
the U.K. Spgwr irtfpimd athtenture, featuring tfi«
triait and tribulation* of a ititrKa-fittian writer,
wilt appear on the COll later on in thr pur
Software publisher Cyberdreams has
announced that Dark Seed will soon be
available for the Amiga CD32. Dark Seed,
winner of the highly coveted
Software Publisher's Association Award for
Best Fantasy Role Playing/Adventure
Program,, has sold over 135,000 units
worldwide, and continues to be a best-
selling product among science-fiction
enthusiasts.
Cyberd reams collaborated with Surrealist
HR Giger to produce the gothic horror
adventure. Giger is world renown for his
work on feature films such as Alien,
Poltergeist and Alien 3.
Giger revolutionised the look of science-
fiction with his unique biomechanics I style,
which depicts the synthesis of biology and
technology as they would have evolved
without the influence of man.
In Dark Seed you play Mike Dawson, a
science-fiction writer who has just moved
into a Victorian mansion. As you
explore your new home, you discover a
gateway to a parallel Universe
inhabited by sinister and horrific beings
whose sole intent is to destroy all :
humanity.
Mike has only three days to solve the
mystery or he will undergo an evil and
bizarre transformation.
The CD version of Dark Seed is expected
to have an enhanced soundtrack incluc
digitised speech and even more spectacula-
Giger-inspired graphics.
Although it's not scheduled for an Aung*
release, Dark Seed 2 will be released late--
this year on the PC, Macintosh and Sega C
systems. It will pick up from where thE -
Dark Seed left off and will involve ■
more diabolical machinations by the atiem
of the Dark World.
Dark Seed 2 will take advanti,-
of the latest computer techno
and feature more digitised sounds anc
mations, plus more importantly
expanded story and improved pu;
structures
Hopefully Cyberdreams will events
release it on the Amiga because I knoi

Empire take off
Not a company to rest on
their laurels, Empire have
got d huge bundle of
releases planned from
now and until the end nf
the year. We've already
previewed o ream web and
Cyberspace, both of which
are due for a Summer
release, but Empire have
got some more delightful
nuggets of software
tucked up their sleeves.
Due for release in June is the creatively-titled Empire Soccer
which apparently captures all the excitement and fast paced
action of the World Cup competition. Empire Soccer will fea-
ture an extraordinary depth of gamepiay coupled with some
dazzling high resolution 256-colour graphic
On the pitch you'll be able to perform moves such as diving
headers, banana kicks, overhead kicks, back passes and power
shots. Empire are trying to put emphasis on the games smooth
scrolling and it's highly reactive ball and players.
Empire's second release, The Dawn of Aerial Combat, is a
return to the skies with a state-of-the-art World War 6 flight
simulation. Each event is played out in superb 3D with full con-
trol of 15 aircraft, The game takes a detailed look at dozens of
actual situations from WW1 and provides background informa-
tion on real-life aces and planes,
Scheduled for a September release, The Dawn of Aerial
Combat is looking very good indeed and you can expect a
n depth System preview in the near future.

hardware and software
Sega has announced that work has ceased on the Jupiter, the 32-bit Saturn-based
cartridge machine and is being switched to a similar project codenamed Mars, des-
tined initially for the US and European markets.
Mars is different from the Jupiter in that it is a 32-bit upgrade for existing Sega
16-bit hardware and is designed to fit into the Mega Drive's cartridge port rather
like the Master System Power Base converter,
JDO's UK launch has now been given the provisional release date of May. tt also
iooks as though the UK price will be a lot lower than previously reported and this
is due to the price being cut in the States. The system will now cost S493.95 in the
States which is around O00
3DO software is steadily increasing and the latest release schedule lists 22 new
titles that should be out between March and May. New titles Include Jurassic Parle
Sewer Shark, Out Of This World and the Psygnosis spectacular. Microcosm.
Sega Japan have just launched a new hand-held version of the Mega Drive enti-
tled the Megajet at a cost of around £90. The machine which features a small LCD
screen is currently being used on first class Japan Air-Line flights.
Valhalla from Vulcan
Vulcan Software are a brand
new software house who are
hoping to make a name for
themselves in the Amiga market-
place.
Their first release is Valhalla: Lord
of Infinity which has been in produc-
tion for almost a year and is sched-
uled for a June release
Billed as a speech adventure,
Vulcan claim that Valhalla is
the very first game of its type on the
Amiga. The finished version will
have a handful of disks entirely ded-
icated to the aural side of the
product.
The game is viewed from a top-
down perspective of the main char-
acter, Valhalla, an innocent elfish
kind of creature.
The finished product will be a col-
lection of logical problems which
jet gradually more and more com-
plex as you progress through the
levels,
Programmed by two graduates.
Lisa Tunriah and Paul Hale
tarrington, Valhalla is looking very
■npressive and Vulcan's first entry
nto the cut -throat world of Amiga
games could well become a big
success.
Valhalla is Vulcan Software i tint
product and it has been billed as the
world's ft'nt fpeezh adventure
rt>p hrro of Valhalla li in innocent
elvish crea tur* who is trying t& turn
wrongs into rights
Ponl rl just one of
Ocean's new budget
titles mining your way
within the tttrMt year
Ocean get Mighty
Mighty Max is in inch-high adventurer who is currently a top-selling toy
across Europe and the US, Not only does he appear in a range of toys,
but he has his own television series and range of videos.
It thus comes as no surprise that Mighty Max, via the software tafents
of Ocean, is going to appear in his very own computer game.
True to the futuristic theme of the cartoon, the game features an
innovative split screen two player mode. During the fast-paced action.
Mighty Max must recover as many as 400 components of the world's
most powerful weapon before his arch-enemy. Skull Master, uses it to
destroy the Earth. In two-player mode, each player will have separate
components to assemble, and each is able to sabotage the others
attempts. With five scenes, each with five levels, of frantic head-to-head
action, Mighty Ma* is, allegedly, set to make a mighty mark on the
Amiga at the end of the year,
Other Ocean news invokes their Hit Squad budget label. Recent
negotiations have lead to Ocean acquiring the rights to republish 12 of
Virgin Interactive's software titles,
Paul Millar, the Hit Squad Sales Manager, commented: "The Hit
Squad is synonymous with value for money and quality and the Virgin
titles will certainly strengthen our position as the best budget label
around.
"All of the 12 titles are outstanding in their own right and I am
proud to have them in the Hit Squad portfolio,"
The Virgin deal will add to the label's already impressive line-up of
titles such as Lure of the Temptress, Jimmy White's Whirlwind Snooker,
Dune, Archer Maclean's Foot, Realms, Supremacy. KGB, Reach for the
Skies, Shuttle, Dune 2, Legend of Kyrandia and Cannon Fodder.
All of these signings are d ue for re lease with! n the n ext yea r

Selections
In this section we tell you which
pieces of software have shined
over the last few months and why
they shiiuld have a place in your
games collection
Skidmarks
Acid Software's racer has got gorgeous graphics, superb
sound, is highly playable and unbelievably addictive It's a
very polished racer that totally destroys all of its competi-
tors. I could go on for hours praising this game, but I really
only need say two wofds - buy it-
Simon the Sorcerer
Adventure Soft's game is cram-packed with puzzles, funny
quips and silly asides. While it's a title that you're not meant to
take too seriously, it will give you plenty to think about if
you're to complete it. Simon the Sorcerer is a very large, well
thought-out graphical adventure that'll keep you happy and
out of harm's way in the land of giants, fairies and dwarves,
Man Ufa: Premier League Champions
I've thrown away my copies of Sensible Soccer and Goal
because Krisalis have created an ultimately more satisfying
football game that will appeal to the true football fan.
The graphics are nicely presented and highly realistic.
Couple this with Its level of payability and addiction and
you've got a hell of a game on your hands. Goal and Sensible
Soccer fans will want to have this game's babies. Buy it and
float to football heaven.
Labyrinth of Time
The bottom line is that Labyrinth is a superb addition to the adventure genre. It has amazing
stylised graphics and a level of depth and payability seldom found in computer games these
days-
It's great news for punters who've put faith in Commodore and the CDJ2 because this is a
title which starts to truly show a little of the machine's capability.
Hero Quest 2: Legacy of Sorcsil
Legacy is very easy to pick up, using a poini-and-click system in
conjunction with the mouse. This is typical of every aspect of
5oras.il generally it's easy to use and even easier to find your
self absorbed within.
This combination of D&O style rules blended in with the
visual aspects of combat and spell-casting will make Hero
Quest 2 an instant success with RPG lovers.
rati)
OK, so it might not have spectacular graphic or sound, but it
has it where it counts and that is in the gameplay and addic-
tion departments. I'm finding it really hard to fault K240, but
I suppose if you play enough it will eventually get a bit unvar-
ied, but the later aliens are incredibly tough and will take a
lot of experienced K240 playing to beat.
Gremlin's space strategy is a truly engrossing game that
will keep you awake until the early hours and I heartily
recommend it as this month's game to get your mitts on.
The scores
on the doors
Our rioopofls scoring
system explained
As part of the new look and feel of the software sec-
tion we have taken a fresh loo* at the way we score
our reviews,. In our opinion, review scores have lost
their content as percentages; some products hare
been receiving scores which were only a few per-
centage points short of perfection, when in. truth the
products were only marginally above average.
OK, so the scores might seem unnaturally low at
first hut that's only because other scoring systems
tend to be on the high side and perhaps not as com-
prehensive or honest as they could he.
In the long run you'll receive a more concise and
reader-oriented review that's geared towards the
consumer.
0-20 This is given to the lowest of the low
21-30 „„..An all-round poor game that may have a
single saving grace
31-40 Just below the average, perhaps let down
by a few indiscretions.
41-SS Games of this score are roughly average
with 50 being a perfectly average store.
.This is an above average game and is worth
buying. For this reason it would be
awarded the BRONZE award.
□
.A game of high quality that we have no
reservation in recommending. Anything of
this ilk would be given the SILVER award.
.A b
and almost the definitive of its hind. This
standard of game would receive the GOLD
award.
90-100 The best in its genre. This benchmark title
receives the PLATINUM title.

It can't be that tough though, this is Chorlton-cum-

The company that bought you Danger Mouse,
Duckula, Wind in the Willows, and, perhaps to their
eventual cost, the full-lemgth animated film The Big
Friendly Giant.
Back in the middle Bus, Cosgrove Hall was undoubt-
edly the largest employer of Manchester's creative
population, and churning out hour after hour of tele-
vision quality animation.
That is, until the recession began to bite harder
than one of Baron Greenback's monster creations,
and Cosgrove Hall began to

After embracing animation
and cartoons, the TV compa-

Suddenly, the streets of
Manchester were littered

though, as one medium began to dry up, another one
emerged.
In this case it was due to the advent of CD technol-
ogy, and the software industry's desire to improve the
quality of its product with introductions and link ani-
mations.
As this research information runs through my head
once more, I suddenly notice the rain distorted sign
I'm after, the key to my destination and home to Fat
City films.
Fat City, along with a couple of other Manch cr-
ossed animators, have managed to break into a fie*
that could have never become a reality if tethnoloef
hadn't intervened.
The man who initiated this slight swagger awa)
from TV animation into the world of computer gams
is Fat City company director, Vincent James.
Sitting back In the comfort of Fat City's pape-
strewn offices, I sip coffee and wait for Vincent r

How
done...
o
Fat City receive the script, some ideas
generated by meetings and a storyboard
©A first draft of the moving animations is
drawn and then sharpened into a blue-
line animation. This is then transferred onto
video-, and shown to Millennium.
©Following an approval by Millennium;
the animation is tidied through a pro-
cess called clean-up. In this procedure the
blue-lines are inked over and tidied up.
J^pkThen the line drawings are photo-
Wufer copied onto transparent cells using
heat imaging. Then the background artists,
Aileen Raistrick and Michelle Graney, paint
the background cells on the reverse of the cell
using water-based paints.
The different layers having gone through
the same processes are all put together. To
avoid mistakes all the action is tied up using a
field size. Basically, this is a square which
aligns each layer, and allows the animators to
know exactly where something is taking
place.
©From here, the finished cells are taken
to film. Animation is generally filmed
on 16mm, 35mm and Hi-band video. From
here, the film is sent to be processed.
If the rush print meets (he required standard,
then it goes to editing and spiking. Then, the
rush print is sent back to the processors and
the answer print comes through.
Then, if Millennium are satisfied with the
answer print, the film goes to dubbing for
sound to be added.
The only exception to this whole
procedure is if lip-synching is required; then,
this needs to be added at a much ear Her
stage.

It. It
it's
zecause everywhere I look I'm seeing wall-mounted
:elevisual icons from my youth like Danger Mouse,
••enfold and Duckula, or whether it is just plain com-
"ortable.
Vincent appears, and after a short bout of cursing
otisy schedules we get down to the business of the
•norning. After a few words about some of the
'ramed shots on the wall, I eventually managed to ask
.mcent how he got started in animation.
"I left school with no formal kind of art qualifica-
tion. In fact, I had a job at Aerospace. But, I hated it
that much I left for a job in a design studio.
"They were knocking out rag-mags and that kind
of thing, and ever so often there' d be some form of
spot cartoon, which I got into doing."
"This went on for about five years, until Cosgrove
Hall approached me. Having seen some of my strips
they asked me to join."
Vincent explains that Cosgrove Hall were just on
the verge of massive expansion: "When 1 started
there, there were about SO of us, six months later and
there were 120- it was crazy."
On this note, the conversation swings around to
Vincent's work at Cosgrove Hall. "While the majority
of the animation staff were involved on BFG, five of
us were busily creating Duckula in collaboration with
the American cable channel Nickelodeon."
"I was frustrated and decided to freelance. After

that I went to Leeds and worked on a project called
Fiddly Foodleburg. It was a totally spaced-out cartoon
series, t mean totally drug-oriented and created by
this burnt out old hippy.
"But, some good did come of it, as I learned all the
other techniques of animation like camera and sound,
things that at Cosgrove Hall you'd never have been
allowed to learn. Oh, and I met Aileen, who does all
the painting of the backgrounds in Pond,"
And this mowed us very neatly onto the subject of
James Pond, and Fat City's association with
Millennium Interactive. Pond Three features an ani-
mated introduction which some of you may well have
seen extracts from on the CD32 version of Pond 2.
Vincent explained; how the two companies came
together:
"I met Millennium because of a mate I had from
my freelance days. He said he'd got some design work
from this computer place"
"They turned out to be Millennium, and needed
someone to design their animation sequence for
them. Anyway, I met them and got the job,"
"We were going to do the backgrounds, but we
soon found out that it wouldn't be that sensible a
thing to do. the,main reason being that it's just too
technical for us."
PROBLEMS
"They had a lot of trouble with our drawings. You
we, computer artists repeat things and loop different
backdrops, It was killing us!
"We were just drawing backgrounds, and they
thought they were lovely, but they ended up in the
bin because they would have soaked up that much
memory,"
With this in mind I asked Vincent what kind of
problems they encountered during production,
"Problems, problems, yes, there were plenty. We
produced a test piece that didn't work liaughs] We
did watercolour wash backgrounds, and of course
they have a watery look to them. And, because the
girls mix paints randomly, the colours are impossible
to match. "
Having visited Millennium Interactive on several
occasions, I've always found them to be quite a pro-
gressive go-ahead team. The products they release are
quite innovative, so I'm interested to find out what
the relationship is like.
"They're not awful [laughs louder], they're a good
bunch of guys. But in terms of animation they don't
really know what they're on about. They tend to be
really finnicky about little things."
"Basically there's a clash between art- based tre-
aties and computer treatives. They both want to
achieve roughly the same thing but go about them in
completely different ways."
As the tempo and volume of the conversation shifts
up a gear, we slip into computer games in general:
Order to move
During my visit to fat City Films I met up with Paul
Johnson who was given the arduous task of explaining
the techniques employed in manufacturing animation for the Pond and HnkU sequences,
While in conversation Paul, a 25-year-old graduate in animation, told me that before he d worked for Fat
City and done a stint at Catalyst, the company that animated the introduction to Soccer Kid^
Paul described the method through which Millennium get animated game movements off Fat City.
-Millennium send down a set of storyboards and rough character designs. Trial and error has already tolfl
us that there a re certain things you cant do on a co m puter, '
"For example, characters can't walk up or down slopes any steeper than 22 degrees. If the hill te steeper
then the character just doesn't look right," .
"Anyway, being well aware of the pitfalls, we then draw rough pencil animation cycles. Obviously, we C
redesign anything we think's a little flawed,"
"Then the pencil animations are cleaned up and turned into what we call blue-line animations [whscr
speak lor themselves). These are then transferred from film onto video, and we send them off to Millennium
to be transferred into DPaint,"
"What happens at the moment is that the non-
artists, in the shape of programmers, make the
games, and use us to fill in missing bits,"
"But these guys aren't trained animators, In fact,
they don't know the first thing about techniques of
character movement, they just guess."
"Most of the games lack invention. The games
houses think they create stylised characters, but they
have no idea how to bring something to life.
"Most of them are still in the mid-SOs using bloody
air-brushes on muscle-bound blokes or marine-boy
clones, They haven't got a clue.'"
Following this line of enquiry further, I'm curious
to establish if Fat City have designed any computer
game characters of there own,
"Yes, we've done a couple of things, We did some
work on a game M-lllennium have got coming out
soon called Pinkie, For Pinkie we did some of the in-
game animation, and the title sequence."
Vincent went on to explain how he came to be
working on Pinkie:
"I first saw Pinkie when it first arrived at
Millennium, I was down there by chance, and these
guys started hawking this thing they'd got"
■ it was one of the nicest things I'd seen, I loved the
colours and the palette they'd used on the back-
grounds - quite psychedelic."
"We're also doing some of the character move-
Eariy *i»*rf»s for Pond and hi* Qirtfrnnd Angel Fisti

ments for James Pond Four. They fax down sor*
rough outlines, and we give them back three d ^r
ent versions of actions, like thrusting or jumping."
"They then transfer them into an Amiga and -ad
them in DPaint.''
"More importantly, we're actually doing a gaa
called Mega-Mite. It's kind of reversing the pr
that we've worked under before,"
As it's a project that's been kept pretty tight
under wraps, Vincent takes me down another aver*
and begins to enthuse about the future:
"Nat long ago, you couldn't have this type of I
mation in computer games, How, we have insert;
between levels and all sorts."
COMPUTER GAMES
"I remember the early attempts to convert ar
tion to CD. It was ail jerky because it missed fra
Now technology has shifted a little further and
put it straight onto a CD."
•I'm not too up on computers, but I hear pe
raving about full motion video, The potential
interactive animation is huge."
Drawing to a close, t ask whether computer i
are proving to be a lucrative new avenue for ar
tors:
"On the whole computer games have been
healthy for animator?. At the end of the day if* i
I mean you want to make a Tom 'n' Jerry, but j
got to pay the bills."
Glancing down I notice my empty coffee

who his favourite cartoon characters is.
The answer comes immediately, and wit!
authority that is without question:
"Felix the Cat without a doubt. He is the

With this, the meeting comes to a dose, Vm

streets of Chorlton.

Introduction
h
ith the forthcoming World Cup this
June, many software houses haw seen
a great opportunity for a swift market-
ing ploy - namely bring out as many
football titles as possible to cash in on World Cup
fever which is bound to hit the country. But never
before are we going to be so spoiled for choice,
as the reviews on these three pages show.
Sierra are making their way onto the football simu-
lation scene with Sierra Soccer. Ffom what we've
seen the game will have a whole host of options
and features.
It can boast built-in intelligence for accurate
computer simulation, a new free kick and corner
directional system allowing you to choose height
and distance, 4,000 frames of player
animation, and a 3D view for fast and smooth
graphics.
Other features will include a replay option with
fast forward, rewind and freeze frame; animated
sequences of referees and injuries to players; and
digitised sound and speech effects.

Renegade and Sensible Software are looking to release The Sensible World
of Soccer sometime in August of this year. The game promises to be differ-
ent in that it wilt combine all aspects of a good management game, while
retaining its original payability
As team manager, the player can choose from 1,500 world club sides from
any one of the world's main leagues. Try your hand at either manager,
player or a combination of the twO: Thus the game should appeal to both
the management/strategy buffs and the arcade player.
Sponsorship
A common trend in sports games, football games in particular, is to get a big
name to endorse your product. What bigger name than Manchester United?
We talked to Tim James, Krisalis's PR man, about their Manchester United
Trilogy, Tim James is far from being boastful when he says that the trilogy
has been the most successful product that Krisalis have released-
The original idea of managing director Tony Kavanagh, it. was obviously a
good move, but how much of it do they believe was down to the product,
rather than the name behind it 7
Tim is quick to point out that no matter what a product is called, the
actual game is what counts, and it's all down to how successful the program-
mers have been,
However in the early days, with Krisalis still establishing themselves, Tim
believes that having such a licence behind their first United reJease did a
great deal to increase their credibility.
Having such a dub behind their game could have its drawbacks, namely
that fans from rival clubs will avoid their game on principle. But: Tim has no
doubts that having Manchester United behind them does not have
disadvantages,
He believes that as one of the most successful clubs in Europe they have
gained great respect from football fans even those from rival clubs, As
opposed to chocraing other big clubs such as Liverpool, Arsenal and Leeds,
Manchester United have earned much admiration for what they stand for
However, Manchester United didn't have a great deal of say in the devel-
opment of the game, unlike some of Krisalis's other releases such as their
Graham Taylor licence where Taylor played a large part in helping create the
right statistics and features for the game, Manchester United simply placed
their trust in the experts and left them to it.
As for the future, there are no United releases on the horizon but Krisalis
have just renewed their contract with the team. So, who knows, perhaps

Taking a peek into the distant
future. Rage plan to release a
sequel to Striker sometime near
Christmas, efforts have been made
to make the game as realistic as pos-
sible, using animation from real
footage.
A lot of work has gone into the
computer intelligence aspect of the
game, as a common complaint about
Striker was that it became too easy
to beat.

The
management
If all this football arcade madness is already
becoming too much, there are alternatives,
Management games are becoming increasingly
popular with those who prefer a game that requires
a hit of thought and strategy with their football. The
Premier Manager duo and Championship Manager
are among the most popular of this particular genre.
The idea behind them is to take on the role of
team manager and lead your squad to success.
Things such as keeping your ground, squad, and
money under control become part of your job. In
Short, all the responsibilities of a manager become
yours.
Even a platformer has taken up the football
theme, in Krisafis's Soccer Kid, with a football -kick-
ing sprite. The game was acclaimed for its brilliant
graphics and unusual payability.
Alternatively, if you'd like a football game but
don't want to bother with all the rules then try the
sequel to Brutal Sports Football, called Brutal Sports
Soccer - soon to be released.
While Brutal Sports Football was based on
American Football, this release will centre loosely
around British football, with the same idea behind
it; of beating the living daylights out of your
opponent.

atmosphere.
Payability remains as smooth and addictive

To the future
With all the leaps in graphics and sound appearing across the gaming genres, the
question on most footy fans' lips is - what's the next generation of Sensible Soccers
going to look like?
The Sega Saturn, to be released at the end of this year, could give a solid hint as
to the direction the genre is moving in. Saturn Soccer is from the makers of the
much-touted Virtua series (racing, fighters) and from the early preview shots
glimpsed at the recent CE5 show, it looks like quite a stormer.
Featuring multiple imaginative views of the action and full polygon graphics,
this is shaping up to be quite a title on the visuals side. Whether it can match the
payability of the likes of Sensible Soccer is another question altogether.
Likewise, FIFA Soccer on the 3D0 features panning, zooming and digitised play-
ers, producing breathtaking results, but as Steve Dunn, the programmer of Sierra
Soccer, says: "The payability [of the next generation] could be fractionally better,
but not desperately better."
Tim James of Krisalis is very much adamant about putting payability before
graphical enhancements. He sees the next step as heading towards more individu-
ality for the players - how well they run, kick and handle. These are techniques
which they have already used in their Manchester United Premier Lea
Champions, and he hopes that bringing more managerial skills to the game ■
produce a more rounded and varied experience.
If you shout at a player, you'll be able to see the results in the nest match -
may well be better on pitch and move faster or, alternatively, sulk and not pla
the best of his abilities.
Virtual reality is regarded by some as being the ultimate way forward, and 1
viable option for the future - could it be possible that a few years down the
we'll be able to slip a VR head unit on and take part in the ultimate football eiga
fierce as we race around Wembley stadium with the roar of fans echoing in
ears?
The one important factor that has been present in many of the classics, is :
payability - this must be one of the most consistently addictive genres, pre
the player with hours of fun and frustration.
Hopefully, the introduction of CD technology, faster processors and fancy i
brlities won't detract from the previous quality of gameplay which has mad* I
genre what it is today.

whale bundle of games lined up. Jonathan Haddock
talis to the people behind Universe, just one
release coming your way swm-
H
5__—
L^^Pj companies who strive for
L^J quality and not quantity. A
bad game from Core is a very rare
occurrence. Over the next few months,
you are going to be constantly bom-
barded by theif products and l J m
happy to report that, true to form,
there isn't a bad game in their latest
batch of releases,
One such game planned for a July 94
release is Universe. This graphicftext
adventure has been created by the
same development team who were
responsible for the critically acclaimed
Curse of Enehantia.
It's all about a journey into a futuris-
tic parallel universe which contains a
dimension of cosmic rivalry and war*
ring alien races. The story begins as an
ordinary lad called Boris Verne is visit*
14?
mg his eccentric Uncle George who is an
inventor,
Boris, being the naive chap he is, sits
in a strange pod machine and get trans-
ported to another dimension, That's
where the adventure begins, System
z
popped down to Derby to talk to Gary,
Jim, Stu and Rolf, the team Who devel-
oped Universe; this is what they had to
say about life, the universe and the
game that could become the one of
best graphic adventures on the Amiga:
Q: What did you do before you
starred word at Core Design?
Gbk: I worked for another software
company and did such games as Scooby
& Scrappy Doo, Yggi Sear and numer-
ous others [budget titles] that 1 can J t be
arsed to remember.
Jim: I spent three years in oblivion at
university supposedly studying com*
puter systems engineering.
Stu: 1 got up in the mornings, pre-
tended to go to college but didn't,
hung around outside in minus 90
degree temperatures and hung out
with my girlfriend.
Rolf: Before Core Design, I had done
several illustrations for book covers,
worked for Games Workshop etc, all
after doing an architecture degree.
Q: How did you come up with the
idea for Universe}
Rolf: Universe was an idea that I origi-
the Amiga,
Stu: The main character, Boris, alsc
scales, which is pretty unusual on •■
Amiga. Boris was rotoscoped to get rea-
istic basic moves (eight-directional w»«
cycles, pick up etc). Any other moves awl
hand-drawn and animated by us.
Q: Universe will appear on tfu
Amtga CQ32- What additional fe*
tares cart we expect to fee?
Rolf: Due to the fact that the AS00 vi-
sion is already in 25& colours, the**
shouldn't be that much of a differs*
graphically. We will be using mo'»
shades though, as the A50Q only has %
shades per colour whereas the CD32 h*
Jbn; We're also looking into speech 9
the C032 version, but we're not too *m
about that at the moment.
Can Of course there will be t*»
expected CD music rather than the fo-r
channel Amiga stuff.
Q: What do you think of the new CI
based technology?
Stu: Which CD technology? The Cuti
doesn't in our opinion live up to a
hype.
nally had for a film script. That never
went anywhere so I decided to turn it
into a game.
Q: What makes Universe different
from every other adventure? Are
there any unique features)?
G«: Yes there are some unique fea-
tures; SPAC (Super Pre-Adjusted
Colours) mode for one, SPAC mode
allows the display of up to 256 colours
on a normal Amiga 500.
Jim Also, the music system is similar to
LucasArts* IMuse in that it changes
depending on the current mood of the
game- We've never see that before on
ant at tht mmny imprmvfivr prices of artwork used in the creation of Unlutne
Jim: Ves, it's just a A1200 with a CD
anve bolted on as an afterthought.
Gu: It's the only CD drive I know of
which can't actually fade music!
PteHi But it does have the Planar chip
' there... somewhere!
Gu: It's just a pity it's not any use.
All: Yeah... It's really great.
Q: Explain the processes involved in
designing a game (from simple
sketches to finished product):
We'll tell you when we find out,
Sty: There's not really a definitive way
of designing a game. Everyone -does it
d fferently.
lint: We start by haying a meeting
where everyone in the team sits
around, drinks coffee and talks over
ideas that they'd like to see in the
game. We then work out which bits of
the initial design are feasible.
Caz: And then we do the business...
Stu: Rolf will start by roughly sketching
out the general layout of the scenes
before he starts to paint them. Once
they're painted, they are scanned in
using a flat-bed scanner and a PC and
touched up if necessary.
Rolf; We then subject the nice picture
to SPAC mode which converts the origi-
nal scanned image so that the Amiga
can display it in 256 colours,
Jim: This usually needs considerable
touching up, but it's worth ft in the end
Stu: We (Jim and myself) then do the
background animations and sprites in
the palette dictated to us by SPAC
mode.
Gaz: Generally the process is a long
one which would take up far too much
space hereto really go into any depth.
Q: Your previous adventure. Curse
of Enchantia. used a icon control
system. Universe will use a text sys-
tem. What benefits do you get from
this new system of control and how
easy/difficult was it to implement?
Rolf: Conversations between characters
in Universe is one benefit.
Jim: Yeah, it's not really possible to
have a conversation using icons, is it?
Cat: Benefits? It works I
Stu: I no longer have to draw stupid
things like "pay respect to the dead" in
a 24 by 24 pixel icon.
Q: Universe will incorporate some
arcade sequences. This has been
done before unsuccessfully in
games like Operation Stealth and
Indiana Jones. What will these
sequences he tike in Universe?
Jim: We are aware that previous
adventures have suffered considerably
due to the inclusion of arcade
sequences so we've kept this in mind.
Generally, adventure players don't want
arcade pieces in their games so we've
not dwetled upon them in Universe.
Caz: The ones that are there are short
and simple and should make an inter-
esting break in the game.
Rolf: You won't be spending hours try-
ing to get past them in other words.

INTRODUCTION
- A few years ago I bought a graphic novel
entitled Watchmen, which featured the
art of Dave Gibbons and it quite literally
took my breath away, rf you've never read Watchmen then right
' after this review I urge you to go out and buy it and if you haven't
got the cash, beg, or steal yourself a copy.
Dave, who previously worked on popular weekly 2000AD. tried and
failed to make a Watchmen game, but he Still had the computer bug and
has now joined up forces with Revolution Software, whose previous soft-
ware credits include the highly acclaimed Lure of the Temptress, to work
on Beneath a Steel Sky.
Two years in the making. Revolution Software have significantly
enhanced their unique Virtual Theatre system and treated a game that is
six times bigger than Lure of the Temptress.
The Virtual Theatre system allows all the characters to realistically move
about independently in their world. For instance, if you find a character in
a certain room, don't expect them to be there when you return.
As with most games of this genre, the adventure is all controlled via the
mouse and clicking on objects or characters will cause the hero of the
game to interact with them.

There isn't a lot to shout about on the sound front and is intact quite weak.
The atmospheric introduction music is adequate enough, but you've heard it
several times before. Actual in-game sound effects are few and far
between. This is about the only disappointing thing about Beneath a
Steel Sky. A nice touch of gentle music playing throughout wouldn't
have gone a miss.
I know there are people out there who don't Jike their adventur

those kind of people there is always the volume switch.

Visually, Beneath a Steel Sky is just about as sexy as Amiga
graphics get. I guess a lot of it is down to the amazing tal-
ents of Dave Gibbons who not only is responsible for
designing part of the actual game and treating the hack-
ground graphics, but also kindly provided Beneath a Steel
Sky with a brilliant scene-setting 8-page comic book.
The game starts with a brief, but well-animated introduction
of the security helicopter crashing with the hero escaping amidst a halt of bullets, but
then you ace plunged straight into the actual adventure.
Revolution's adventure features some exceptional character sprites and some jaw-
droppingly good backgrounds arid when compared to previous ctames of this genre it
literally outihines them all.
The animation is smooth and fluid and you really get a sense that each sprite has its
own character and personality. Even just small sections of Beneath a Steel Sky are
worth mentioning.
For instance, if I told you there's a bit where a cat
jumps off a bed, you wouldn't be that impressed, but
it is so well animated that you actually feel like telling
everyone about it-
I have tried, but failed to knock the graphics in the
game simply because they are so damn perfect, I doff
my cap to Dave Gibbons and the graphic artists that
have obviously worked so hard on Beneath a Steel Sky,

There are loads of previous adventures I could com-
pare Beneath a Steel Sky to, in fact far too many to
name here, but classics like The Secret of Monkey Island 2 spring ta
mind.
There are certain points in Revolution's graphic adventure
where humour pops up and this is very reminiscent of the wir.
cisms found in US Gold's swash-buckling Monkey Island 2.
One of the better adventures that you could compare it to is i
previous release of Revolution Software, Lure of the Temptress.
Lure featured some luscious graphics , some good atmosphere
sound effects and incorporated the then revolutionary Virtu*:
Theatre system.
The story is all about a chap called Diermont and his mission to
free the Turnvale Village from the evil clutches of Selena, i
apprentice sorceress
At the time the game received a walloping 92% and a Gamer
Gold award. The reviewer at the time summed Lure up by saying
"If you're the more patient type of gamer who wants a challenge
that will give you months of enjoyment, look no further than Lin*
of the Temptress".
I
Beneath a Steel Sky is just about one of the belt
graphic adventures I have played to date on the
Amiga. Everything about it just oozes quality and
over the last couple of weeks it's been a real pleasure
to play-
Before I praise it anymore I should point out its
few unfortunate faults. Firstly, it comes on IS (count
'em!) disks and you will .without a shadow of a
doubt, need a hard drive. The actual installation pro-
cess takes well over an hour, but why it should take
this long is completely beyond me.
I played Beneath a Steel Sky on the A1200 and it
kept crashing about every 1 5 minutes, It's not just me
either because another member of the AC team, who
was as deeply engrossed in Virgin's adventure as me,
experienced the same problems.
Putting these faults, which do take the edge off
the actual brilliance of the game, aside, I would
heartily recommend Beneath a Steel Sky to any
adventure fan. Why da I recommend it though?
Well, the graphics are good enough to marry and
have children with, the gameplay and actual story-
line are first-rate, it's easy to play and you just
couldn't wish for a better adventure.
The actual puzzles contained within the game do
vary from the obvious to the baffling, but you have
a lot of fun trying to work them out and when you
do a sense of achievement washes over you,
Beneath a Steel Sky is not aimed at the very
young market though, because it does have a small
amount of swearing and innuendo contained
within it. Nothing that shocking, but I'd just
thought I'd let you know.
Beneath a Steel Sky was just a whisker away fro*
getting a Platinum award, but due to the arnou-
bugs I suffered I'm now a little bitter and I've conse-
quently knocked the score down. No matter .
software comes out, there is little excuse for le
bugs get into a game.
Revolution Software have surpassed the amar^

JUNE 1994

he American Civil War has long vied
with the exploits of Napoleon and
Wellington as the war gamer's
favourite gaming period, 2nd there have been a few mostly ill-fated
attempts to bring the sweep t>i this continental struggle to the small
screen over the years.
Impressions, whose games have in trie past covered just about every other
area of conflict, have entered the fray with a game aimed at those who enjoy
marshalling lead figures around a tabletop, and those who prefer a more
behmd-the-fmes strategic involvement,
Creating a playable computer game which mimics the movement of thou-
sands of troops on a battlefield is notoriously difficult, and when this is paired
with a strategic overview of a four-year war, the t»k becomes a little daunting.
Can Impressions pull it off?
When the South began the bom-
bardment of Fort Sumter,
Charleston, in April 1961, they
were taking the first armed steps in
a war which was to last four years
and tost the lives of 617 r OOO
Americans, two-thirds of whom
were destined to die in the charnel
houses that were the hospitals of
the time.
Despite the initial successes of
the Confederate forces, their early
military superiority, dashing tactics
(particularly in the Shenandoah val-
ley under Jackson and LongrtreetJ,
and fanatical commitment could
only delay the day when northern
industrial and numerical superiority
ground them into the dust.
Bull Run, where Stonewall
Jackson earned his nickname, was
to be followed by a succession of
victories and defeats until the turn-
ing point of the war .at Gettysburg.
There the Confederate invasion
of Pennsylvania died, along with
23,000 Union troops and 28,000
Confederates, and Robert E Lee had
suffered his first defeat.
The psychological effect of the
battle on both sides was immense,
and the North gradually pushed the
Rets back until, on April 9, 1865,
Lee signed the terms of his surren-
der to his old rival Ulysses 5 Grant
in the courthouse of a tiny town
called Appomattox,
IIiote nothing left for
mj to (to but si and
see General Grant, and I mould rathiir dii?
a thousand death5
General Rob-erf f
Lee just before hs
surrender to Grant
It had been the bloodiest war in
US history, more costly even than
World War 2 was to prove.

war gamer's favourite slaughter subject

EZ3^
~~e game's graphics vary in quality and consistency depending upon which screen is.
:wng viewed, so while the static information screens and the strategic maps are
>jite well drawn, the representation of battles is poor and based entirely on the
I existing Impressions battle system which hasn't changed much for a couple of years.
To the tabletop fanatic used to pushing immaculately modelled and painted fig-
wres across intricately detailed fake countryside, the battle scenes will be a particular
sisappointment. Soldiers are drawn in blocky lo-res and move jerkily across the
screen, and the battlefields themselves are about as basic as one can get.
On the other hand, information screens showing historical events from the war
tsell are easy on the eye, and the map of Norm America is up to the task,
Graphics during the manoeuvre and strategic phases of the game don't impress
m an artistic sense, but they are good enough and the various control options are
presented clearly and neatly.
More realistic battle scenes would have given The Blue and the Gray a much bet-
ter visual appeal, but as this is a more cerebral game than most,, it is not as damag-
ing a weakness as it might otherwise' have been.
50°/o
I22E1
When la nun/ft mw divisions u tifte
mart important strategic detiiron
without becoming too gruesome, the game does make an
attempt at battle ngises, with musket volleys, neighing
horses, and booming cannons at the appropriate moment,
but there's a distinct lack of other touches.
I would have liked a Rebel Yell when the Confederates
charge (which, true to life, they often do in this game), and
some sort of general battle hubbub, but overall the sound
isn't too bad. Music is OK as far as ft goes, which isn't far,
and there are a couple of attempts at the battle hymns of
the time.
50%
Split into strategic and tactical sec-
tions, the game's simulation of the
Civil War is by no means perfect, but
it is good enough given the limita-
tions of a twg-clisk package and a
four-year continental war.
Strategy is probably the weakest
section, and player; are limited in
what they can do to affect the out-
come of the war. Using train and
ship transports properly, destroying
railway lines, and judging where and
when to commit reserves or raise
new divisions are the only real
strategic decisions.
As the north's victory was so
dependent upon its numerical and
economic strength aided by a naval
blockade, some sort of economic
dimension to the game would have
helped- However, as the war itself
consisted mostly of attempts to
locate and destroy as many enemy
troops as possible, the lack of more
subtle elements is acceptable.
In battle mode, poor graphics
don't help much, but the battle syv
.»'*■#'*
OPINION IJiUfl
Sixty per cent might seem a generous score for a game which
falls over in the graphics side and has a few simulation flaws,
but as Impressions are aiming at the war gaming fan and as
the battle system is basically sound, The Blue and the Grey
comes over as a reasonable attempt at an extensive and
unwieldy subject. •
The superb manuals help a great deal, and as there are
good campaign and battle tutorials the game should be
approachable by nun-war gamers as well as the experienced
weekend general.
To aid the beginner, there's also an excellent 180-page his-
tory of the Civil War which covers the material in some depth
and in a very readable style-
It takes some time and a lot of patience to get to grips
with this game, particularly as the early battles Arm made
more infuriating by the difficult mouse control when scrolling
across the battlefield.
After a few practice battles, though {in one of which my
three division Union army was routed by a single under-
strength Rebel infantry division) the pieces start to fall into
place and the depth of the battle system starts to show.
Fighting out a huge affair, such as the first battle of Bull
Run, can take a very long time, because when there are
30,000 soldiers cm each side you have to knock speed right
down and scroll back and forward like a mad thing to keep
track of what's going on.
Add the fog of war option and unit re-supply and things
become even trickier and time<onsuming.
On the whole, though, the war gaming fan will find
enough in this game to warrant buying it, particularly as the
tabletop variety takes even longer to organise and play.
Other gamers will scratch their chira in a thoughtful manner
and give it a wide berth, but that's only to be expected.
tern itself is well worked out, Troops
can be grouped into large forma-
tions or used as individual units, and
they can be told to form lines two
deep, assume skirmishing formation,
or even squares.
Each unit has its own firepower,
attack, and defence ratings as well
as troop quality and morale, all of
which have a direct result on game-
play, and different weapons can
have an effect too.
Union troops, for example, have
the Sharps and Enfield carbines
whereas Confederates use mostly
older muskets, and cavalry can be
told to use either sabres for maxi-
mum effect in charges, or carbines
for mgre static manoeuvres.
In play, moving troops around can
be a real pain, and the control sys-
tem during battles is rather clunky at
times. However, so long as the battle
speed is kept down (there are tef
settings), tabletop players should
feel at home with most elements.
If you can see past the graphics
and have the patience to p>ay
a full battle, then there is a gooa
war gaming system trying to brea*
free of the game design, and V
the genre should find enough itpt
to keep them going.

Perihelion is an extremely interesting departure from the normal RPG r.

For instance, many titles of this genre have a very similar style for represent*

As the name suggests, Perihelion is a solar-centric culture, leftovers from an
ancient, technocratic society which ail but vanished in the aftermath of a nuclear
tlOlatflUSt.
The principle relic, as a reminder of that era, is a ruined metropolis named
Mid Light Our tale begins on thi-s strange -futuristic world of Perihelion, where the
society if constructed of mutants and surgical and genetically enhanced groups, of
humartoids.
One such character is Finian, a Bionncron, and student of psionics. It's during
his pilgrimage to the Psionic Training Institute that the plot unfolds.
As part of his mental separation of mind and body, he must approach the
school through the desert, After a hazardous passage, Finian finds himseff in his
simple room enduring a preparatory state of meditation before he faces the time
of the Mann is.
As he meditates deeper, putting aside the physical pain he has faced through
the desert, Finian has a vision. He is out in the desert again, only this time he's not
alone.
Finian feels a force, an entity so powerful it totally engulfs his soul. He can only
gaze in horror as this great evil moves about him, eventually yanking him high
into the air
Suddenly, the entity relinquishes its grip on and he spirals towards the yellow
sand below him, As the dusty void immerses him, he hears a voice, a foreboding,
malevolent boom that tells him that the time has come.
The story is relayed back to the head of the institute, who having called a
meeting of the Council, informs them that he senses danger, and that their leader
Rex Helion must know of these events.
As a response to Finian's prophecy. Rex Helion orders that Project Awakening
must be initiated, the premise of which is to safeguard against this unhewn evil,
thus ensuring the future of Perihelion.
So. there they stood. Six unborn souls ready to do battle with a malignant
force that has itself yet to be born. To Rex Helion, Emperor of Perihelion it
sounded pure folly, but how many times have the psionics been right before?

The style of Perihelion lends itself to a very tradi-
tional sci-fi feel. Many of the themes of cyber-
punk societies with neural networking and
genetically manufactured humanoids are cen-
tral to the core of the title, These images have
been very well Implemented, especially the
head-shots of the six genetic warriors you control
during play,
The infro sequence too has been well handled. It
blends moody futuristic city landscapes with some excellent snippets of
animation, and works to great effect.
Though play is a montage of styles, it's comprised mainly of 3D first
person perspective. This again, is highly stylised, and feminded me of a
downtown Mega City 1 from Judge Dredd.
Its only let down is the repetition of locations. As you wander around
the deserted ruins of cities, turning one corner or looking at a building
entrance soon leaves you feeling as though you've inherited some of
the aforementioned psionic powers of precognition.
Still, on the whole Perihelion looks the part. One can teil that some
trouble has gone into the design, arting and feel of every screen that
the user interacts with.
To the designers credit, much of the effort and polish that have gone
into this aspect rubs off on the user's enthusiasm and make it
just a touch more pleasant to use.

bols. The computer network that your mutated characters can log on to and
access, is also a nice extension of concurrent themes.
Not only does it feel right that your characters should have the technological
insight to be able to perform such a task, but its also relevant to the completion
of the story.
The only aspect of Perihelion that let it down slightly was the combat, Ifs a
completely understandable notion to take the user to a separate screen to com-
mence battle; it grants the opportunity to make tactical decisions, aim and effect
repairs. But it's where, if a computer game can ever manage it, the fantasy of
being real is lost.
However, while ifs a little samey in places, Perihelion is a very competent
adventure, and I look forward to the next offering from this development team.
Many of the characters in the game have
undergone cybernetic surgery. The term
cybernetic is derived from the Greek kuber*
nan, "to steer".
It's the science concerned with how sys-
tems organise, regulate, and reproduce them-
selves, and also how ihey evolve and learn.
In the laboratory, inanimate objects are
created that behave like living systems
Applications range from the creation pf elec-
tronic artificial limbs to the running of a fully
automated factory where decision-making
machines operate up to management level.
Cybernetics was founded and named in
, 1947 by US mathematician Norbert Wiener,
\ originally the study of control systems using
feedback to produce automatic processes.
The idea of cybernetics became that
popular that TV series were spawned, the
most popular being that irrepressible man
in the red tracksuit Steve Austin, none
other than the Six Million Dollar Man.
Through the eighties ideas were expanded.
and with special effects technology vastly
improved, films like James Cameron's
Terminator were born.

Consisting of three different levels, Darkmere uses a richly stylised technique El
is brimming with detail, For example, as you approach the tavern the signpost i
door is swinging in the wind and the lights that illuminate the paths flicker k
light as a breeze passes.
The landscape is also extremely detailed with masses of
graphical objects to examine, search and interact with.
The animation of your muscle-bound Eoryn, and
indeed all of the characters within Darkmere, is
extremely well executed. The character sprites are
fairly large and move and fight extremely
smooth ly.
As you journey around the many varied loca-
tions you'll encounter many little extra anima-
tions that, although unrelated to the plot, add
that extra dimension of realism.
For instance, as you make your way around the
town you'll encounter r$ts, and during a forage
through the forest, rabbits hop by.

STORYLINE
Set in times of olde f Darkmere is a sad tale gf unrequited
love. Its plot follows the fortunes of King Gildorn and his son
Ebryn. As a young man, Gildorn killed an evil dragon, but
was ousted from his homeland for interfering in human
destiny
Back in his own land, Gildorn was proclaimed King and a
time of great prosperity and order began. Sometime later a
young female elf was found wandering the outskirts of the
surrounding forest.
Remembering nothing but her name, Berengaria was
given shelter by the King. Over the following months King
Gildorn grew closer to Berengaria, eventually falling in love
with her.
The romance blossomed and a wedding soon followed.
Glad tidings continued with the news that Berengaria was
pregnant, and following tradition, Berengaria disappeared
into the forest to give birth.
Time passed, and when the queen did 1 not reappear,
Gildorn became anxious and decided to go searching for her.
For days he rode, then in despair he came across a leafy
glade and found a new born child, his son.
Years passed and the son grew stronger, but the queen
never returned. The King grew more and more melancholy
as still she didn't return. Instead he took to gazing into his
crystal, staring for hours and hours upon time in a wain
search for his beloved Berengaria,
The more he gazed, the more the land became a magnet
for evil. The ores returned, thieves and cut-throats every one
of them. They ravaged the land and went undetected by the
King as. he withdrew further into the crystal,
Greater evils were rumoured to be spreading around the
surrounding lands and forest- Eventually Ebryn approached
his distressed father and told him he was going to restore
the kingdom to its former glory.
Agreeing that his sorrow has caused neglect, Gildorn tells
Ebryn to find his old friend, Wait ha r the Mage. To aid Ebryn,
Gildorn gives him his Elven Blade that is bestowed with Elven
power, and a crystal that will allow Ebryn to call for help
from him.
With that Ebryn leaves the castle and sets off to uncover
the malodorous evil that curses the land.

ADDITIONAL INFQ
Questing for good has been a talent
the Anglo Saxons have relished in for
many centuries. Perhaps our most
famous religious liberator is Richard I
(the Lion-heart). King of England
from 11B9, he spent all but six
months of his reign abroad fighting
for Christianity in the Middle East.
Richard and his knights believed
that Sal^d in and his Muslim followers
were in dire need of religious instruc-
tion through force. This is regardless
Of the fact that the Muslims tolerated
gentiles, and lived side by side until
the Christian invasion,
In the third crusade of 1191-92,
Richard won victories at Cyprus, Acre,
and Arsuf, but failed to recover
Jerusalem from Saladin.
Salad in was sultan of Egypt, and
born of Kurdish blood. He was
renown for his knightly courtesy, and
made peace with Richard in 1192.
Following this, Richard returned
home to claim his throne from his
brother John. Unhappy with peace,
Richard looked closer to home and
duly went to war with the French. In
1 199 he died fighting in France.
This must surely rate as one of the best 3D isometric
adventures ever to appear on the Amiga. It possesses
a haunting style that is completely unique, and sel-
dom achieved in many computer titles.
Character interaction is extremely simple to grasp,
and the menu system which helps you negotiate your
character through a seemingly endless environment
is the essence of simplicity to use.
However, by for the most impressive focet of
Darkmere is the graphics. They pay such attention to
detail and create such a mood that it gives the
adventure an immediate head-start over everything
else it competes against.
If I had a criticism - and it's only a minor one - it's
that the majority of battles that you engage in are
exactly the same and don't require any particular skill
to win. For example, whenever you fight against one
of the abundant supply of ores, you just hold your
Fire button down, point the joystick into one of
the attack positions, and the stupid ore just
keeps walking into you until it spontaneously
combusts.
Nevertheless, Darkmere is a pretty classy title. It's
contained in a huge playing area Cbe prepared to
map), has interesting and very moody graphics, and
contains objectives and puzzles that wifl hold your
attention for a good while.

INTRODUCTION
Overhead shoot-'em-ups have quite
a heritage in computer games his-
tory. Starting with the fiendishly
addictive Robotron. a genre was created and continued down
the yean with the likes of Gauntlet Commando and Smash TV.
TtK latter title received some press coverage over the amount
of blood spilled with each kilting and now, with Total Carnage, this tra-
dition continues.
First came Robotron, then Smash TV, its
violent sequel. Now, from Ice, comes a game
with blood and bikinis - Tntal Carnage, a
conversion of the Williams coin-up.

as Jack Nicholson in The Shining. While the latter was restricted to a single hotel and

Only two men are brave, strong and simple-minded enough to even consider tak-
ing on the General at his own game - Captain Carnage and Major Mayhem, the
Doomsday Squad.
The simple directive is to enter the com pie*, rescue hostages, disable Akh boob's
forces, get inside his stronghold and go after the big man himself
Violence has always sold games, From the early days
of IK+, Barbarian and Moonstone, to the recent
Mortal Kombat featuring spinal columns being
ripped out of opponents, it's clear that blood-letting
is § money spinner.
Total Carnage comes from the makers of Sma&h
TV, a game which included multiple bloody deaths in
a glamorised scenario. While the argument rages
between software compamies and parental/teaching
groups to find out what kind of effect this all has on
the younger generation, plans have already been
mobilised by ELSPA (European Leisure Software
Publishers' Association) to introduce a voluntary rat-
ings system to guide the parent on the most suitable
purchase for their youngster.
Total Carnage is not a title to be that concerned
about -while the enemy may explode in a shower of
blood, there are no screams of pain-or burning
corpses as found in such titles as Syndicate or Mortal
Kombat and the gore is very much in the comical
sense, especially with the cartoonised and rough-
looking graphics,

The overhead viewing angle is, in most cases, an effective
one and Total Carnage is- no different. The largest prob-
lem with the presentation is that the graphics of the
sprites and the backdrops simply took worn and crude
compared to the likes of Chaos Engine and Alien Breed 2
which were released a few months ago.
The characters' legs have a remarkable per
spective where it seernsthey shrink from the
pelvis down into feet that take size
shoes. While it is appreciated that the
graphic artist was simply trying to achieve
a realistic look for the overhead angle, it simply doesn't
work.
The animation is lair on the whole with the relatively
bloody deaths of mutant soldiers as they explode on
meeting a bullet. The scrolling is slow and fixed - when
the game wants you to move, you move and if it doesn't
you stay where you are or risk walking face first into a
homicidal axe-wielding maniac.
Another regular difficulty is moving your way to the
top of the screen and having to wait for the slow
scrolling to catch up. And like much enhanced
software, it's hard to see why this is specifi-
cally .in At 2 00 version.

With this kind of licence, the sound is usually a clash of music,
screams and other high pitched, audience-grabbing aural
effects.
Surprisingly, Total Carnage is a little restrained in this depart-
ment - there is no music over the intro and option screens and
during the game itself, gunfire and the impart of bullets make
up the main bulk of the sound. These admittedly are solid
effects and add impact to the gameplay.
Speech is also a welcome inclusion with a voice crying out
"total carnage" as a wealth of mutants waddle on to the screen
towards you. Other samples include the hostages who cry for
your help, and when retrieved thank you for your time and
effort,
Sadly enough the only women to appear in the game are
wearing bikinis with a ball and chain who flatter your ego every
time you rescue one of them by proclaiming that you are a hero
in a bimbo voice. Equal rights have yet to enter the gaming
arena...

OPINION H i m
Shoot-'em-ups have become some of the most tired
releases in software. With the steady increase of
technology and companies opting out of fresh, origi-
nal and playable ideas to stick firmly with the easy
road of licences, customer's wallets are beginning to
suffer more and more.
Total Carnage is a typical example of a reasonable
conversion of an average coin-op that will sell simply
because* of the name and hype attached to it. If you
enjoyed the original then you'll glean a certain
amount of satisfaction from this.
Indeed, the proceedings can be relatively involv-
ing, especially in two-player mode, and with 20 bat-
tle zones to wage war through, there is certainly a
hefty challenge to be met.
The numerous power-ups for weaponry and air
strikes also add incentive to see how much damage
you can cause in the shortest amount of time.
At the end of a wage-earning day, though, and
after reaching into your pocket and fishing
out £30, Total Carnage is not really worth the
money.
The action, while constant, is never really
adrenalin pumping and has more in common with a
hard slog with the Fire button than exciting and
spontaneous play.
The graphics also detract appeal from the
overall package, leaving Total Carnage with
averageness as its main quality, and consumers
with a dry and tepid emptiness in their wallets.

However intentional it was, the game can be closely related to
the Vietnam war and 50 a title of this nature will inevitably raise
questions on moral implications.
As the conflict was so controversial in the first place and com-
paratively recent, the game could cause offence. More so per-
haps across the Atlantic than here, but even so it is perhaps
worth considering the inspiration behind the game.
The routes of the conflict can be traced back to 1954, to the
Geneva Convention when Vietnam was split into the Communist
North and the Pro-Western South, right up until 1975- It was
later known as "America's longest and most unpopular war".
For the first time the full horrors of war came under the
scrutiny of the' genera I public via the new medium: of television.
Anti-war protests broke out, some resulting in outbreaks of vio-
lence.
One such protest took place on October 15, 1969, This was
the Vietnam Moratorium, and was the biggest anti-war demon-
stration ever organised in America
The war resulted in the toss of 200,000 South Vietnamese sol-
diers, one million North Vietnamese soldiers and 500,000 civil-
ian*. Losses were also high on the American side with 56,555 U5
soldiers killed between 1961-75, a fifth by their own men.
For instance, in August 1966 20 US soldiers died when US
planes accidentally napalmed their own troops, Neutral
Cambodia also suffered, estimating one million killed or
wounded by US bombings.
Apocalypse is a multi-direc-
tional parallax scroller
which makes for a techni-
cally stunning game. The backgrounds update at
the same rate as the helicopter flies giving a con-
vincing feeling of flying over the terrain.
Jungle settings have been cleverly used to
recreate the terrain almost to the extent of look-
ing like a scene from the aforementioned
Apoalypie Now. The immense amount of fore-
ground and background detail make Apocalypse
astound ingly authentic.
However, the multi-layered batkdropsand dif-
ferent levels of platforms used causes problems,
especially when gameplay becomes hectic
One moment's lack in concentration and you
find yourself exploding into the ground as it Is
sometimes difficult to make out which is merely
foreground detail and which is a landing plat-
form.
Sprites are well-animated and despite their size
show a great amount of detail, displaying all the
gory effects of explosions.
75%
As far as being a highly realistic war game goes,
Apocalypse looks and sounds the business, evoking a
powerful Image of war, But it does verge on the
excessively difficult side, and although this provides
longevity, the game becomes exceedingly
frustrating,
It is also let down by the fiddly control system, and
although the helicopter is easy to fly, the Fire button
serves the same function for both weapons and
changing direction resulting in firing accidentally -
sometimes at your own men.
More depth in the gameplay, rather than just an
advanced srtoot-'em-up, would have benefited the
game, and a save game option would have removed
some of the frustration.
However it is graphically brilliant and the realistic,
sampled sound effects make the game stand out
above others in this genre.

Tiia Hacked gets physical with Millennium's
CD32 Brutal Sports Football , and ducks into
Ion 17's budget CD3 2 compilation nf Qwak
ad Men Breed Special Edition
Although fairly old. Alien Breed is still an excellent arcade blasVem-up and an
undoubted classic Compared to its sequel ft perhaps isn't as sophisticated but
despite this it doesn't appear a? dated as you might think.
Viewed from a top down perspective, you take on an alien army who have
infested a Federation research station. Based in the future, you are positioned in a
galaxy on the brink, of war, and with the aid of various weapons it becomes your
role to blast the aPiens and complete the missions.
Alien Breed is a highly atmospheric game and the tension created works well as
the action becomes more and more frantic,, with aliens appearing out of nowhere
which you need to destroy.
Good graphics contribute to the atmosphere considerably, with settings such as
dingy corridors and space terminals- The added small details make highly realistic
backgrounds and create a futuristic feeling.
The eerie music also conjures up a great deal of the atmosphere. Other sound
effects, such as gunshots and aliens yelping when hit, work well, and sampled
speech has been used to generate realism.
Extra features have been added to this new edition, such as new missions and
bigger levels, so newcomers to the game and Alien Breed veterans alike will find
the game a challenge. The two-player mode also adds an extra dimension to the
gameplay.
This is blasting mayhem at its best, and it's well worth a look if you didn't catch
this excellent title first time round.
Classic arcade platform action completes this double act in the form of Qwak, a
Brutal Sports Football
Appearing across many formats. Brutal Sports has proved highly popular, and
now it's here to grace the C032. If you're not familiar with this title, the idea
behind it is based loosely around American Football.
The main variation is that this version is based in the future, has no rules
and the primary object, other than scaring goals, is to beat the pulp out of
your opponents!
This is atl depicted through gory graphics of decapitations, knifings and all
other forms of physical violence imaginable. All this coufd encourage a high
moral tone, but in this case it is more than necessary and what's more, it's fun'
As a mixture between a beat-'em-up and a futuristic sports sim, you get to
guide a team of mutated creatures to League success. Winning is achieved by
the obvious method of scoring the most goals or by slaughtering six of the
opposition.
Pick-ups are also a major factor in deciding your victory or failure, These
take several forms and tan be found scattered around the pitch. Rabbits speed
up your players whereas tortoises do the opposite.
Devices such as lightning or ice-cubes strike down your unfortunate oppo-
nents, but of course they can make use of these pick-ups too.
All this makes for a hugely enjoyable mixture of frantic American Football
and hilarious beat-'em-up action. The two>player mode provides an opportu
nity for competing against a friend, and even more excitement.
Extra additions to this CD version include graphical details showing a crowd
of aliens, enhanced sound effects and a rock sound track
For those thinking of investing in some quality software for their CD32, this
comes highly recommended.

Watch out tor
dissolving platfnrmi
Alieo Breed Special Edition & Qwak
highly playable title whose sprite is a duck. The game could be accused of being a
Bubble Bobble clone but this does not detract in any way from its quality.
And although platformers these days hardily have a reputation for originality,
this one stands out for its totally absorbing gameplay.
The aim is relatively simple. Clear the screen of baddies, collect bonuses and
grab the keys to open the doors to the next level.
Life is made more difficult with the inclusion of dissolving platforms, time limits
and all manner of strange enemies to hinder you.
Firing eggs at the enemies will eliminate them; points are awarded for success-
fully doing so, and after each of the eight worlds you'll face one of the tough end-
of -level guardians,
The game contains a two-player feature which works well in providing variety,
and the puzzle angle also adds another element guaranteeing longevity,
Graphics are colourful and complement the overall fun feeling of the game.
This is also picked up in the accompanying tune which is in keeping with the lively
gameplay. The controls are well designed and make the game instantly playable,
Qwak, although not exactly intellectually demanding, will provide hours of fun
gameplay and a good laugh along the way as well.

Jonathan Mattock checks out their forlhcnmnig
release, billed as the ulhmale space jawe
hB
allowing hot on the heels 0* TFX (previewed in
last month's System} is Digital Image Design's
inferno, which b currently being tipped by those
in the know as the ultimate space game.
Inferno utilises the same 3D graphics engine that
DID used for TFX, but they have updated and included
some improvements into the graphics system-
Way hack in September 1992, Ocean released a DID
game software entitled Epic
This was going to be the
space adventure to rival the
classic Elite, but dogged by
the time scale they were
working to, DID found that
the product had speed prob-
lems and was plagued by
bugs,
inferno is the sequel to
Epic, but Amiga technology
has progressed in leaps and
bounds in the 19 or so
months since Epic was
released, DID 1 * sequel will
have far superior graphics
and sound, plus it will con-
tain s world several times
larger than the one seen in
its predecessor
It has been in develop-
ment for well over a year
now which translates into
ten man years of hard work.
Inferno is set 90 years after
Epic left off. You are invited
to do battle anywhere
through an entire solar system consisting of seven plan-
ets, three moons, alien and human installations and
interplanetary space 2anes.
rfs basically a typical story about humans v$ aliens
fighting a space war, You are taken on an impressive
3D graphic journey around beautifully scrolling
landscapes.
in between the intense action of space combat you
can sit back and watch the Inferno story unfold with
incredible animations and characters that can actually
talk. Now that CD technology has been introduced via
Commodore's CD32, there are limitless options avail
able to a software house when the time comes to di
the music and sound.
Although it does cost a lot more money, professional
musicians can be drafted in to produce some startling
and exciting pieces of music for today's games. The
Manchester-based company initially pursued big-name
artists such as the KLF or The Orb to provide the musical
compositions.
After much thought, Ocean appointed Nick and Mn
fiend from the band Alien Sex Fiend to write the muvc
that would hopefully bring that important bit of atmo-
sphere into Inferno
Alien Sen Fiend might seem a unusual choice to d
the sounds for a computer game. They can be best

The third dimension
DID have one of the best 3D engines
around and it's, been modified and
developed over the last five years. Five
or six graphic artists have been han-
dling the 3D work for Inferno for well
over eight months.
Sean Hollywood, art and design
director at DID, is the man most respon-
sible for the superb visuals found in the
game.
"In termi of Inferno, development
was first started to see jf we could logis-
tically do what we wanted to We
thought of some new design and
graphical techniques that we would all
like to incorporate into the whole pack-
age as well as 3D techniques for the in-
game stuff.
'We develop on a number of multi-
ple fronts. The design will go on in tan-
dem with the technology as well as the
artwork."
Inferno features a comic which intro-
duces the player to the characters
within the game. The man responsible
for the art found inside it is Sean
Phillips, renowned 2000AD artist
famous for, among other projects, his
superb sketches of Judge Dredd and
Devlin Waugh. "The comic is part of
Sean Hollywood, BiO's art And design
director, is the man rrtponfiblo for
Inferno's amazing visuals
the instruction manual - a kind of intro-
duction to the characters and the world
they inhabit. We sat down and decided
that we wanted to concentrate on the
interaction between the humans and
aliens which isn't part of the game, but
is something we were able to do
extremely well in the comic."
Sean continues, "The characters are
science-fiction cliches. You've got a
human, blonde- haired hero and you've
got your ugly, evil aliens. The characters
cart't die at the end, We've got to make
sure they finish in the comic as they start
in the game."
Sean Phillips, the renowned 1600AD artist
whose amazing talents have gone into
if I'.itimj ttm Infrrnn instruction mnnu.it
described as a Goth band and are heavily guitar-based,
but they're also highly talented and can be incredibly
diverse. They have over the last decade released 11
albums and gradually built up a large and faithful fol-
lowing. Once Alien Sex Fiend had discjssed exactly
what Ocean wanted from
them they set about writing
the soundtrack, along with a
guy called Barry Leitch. Barry is one of
Ocean's top in-house musician who has been responsi-
ble for the musk found in over 80 games including the
forthcoming TFX.
Nick Fiend found it a considerable change writing
the music for Inferno. He compares the process with
that of treating an album:
"You get the same result - five weeks of differing
moods. Although I'm not that musical I do know what I
like, so it's relatively the same process except I haven't
been able to mint it or put a guitar on it. All I could
really do was direct which is very frustrating,"
The music has a very ambient feel to it. It's highly
atmospheric and changes in conjunction with
what's happening in the game, Alien Sex Fiend
are hoping to give the soundtrack a more
techno feel to it and then release it as a
record inde pendent from the game
CD32 owners have been
going through what I
can only call a soft-
ware rough patch.
Microcosm raised a *
few eyebrows but
although it had some pretty amazing graphics it was
desperately lacking on the payability
front.
Inferno has superb graphics and sound,
but more importantly DiD have spent a lot
of time developing the gameplay, so CD32
owners start saving your money Inferno

I personally think that DID's space game

©ome people lowe to use 6BSs,
and spend All their time fdrtd or
course maneyj playing with
conferencing systems, sending
huge wads of cash every month to a big
building in Qeveland, Ohio.
While paying the bosses of CompuServe
to drive expensive cars is fun for a while, H
soon palls ancf you realise that what you
want mast is Bo start your own system, and
so not hawe to worry about paying for your
orpine tune.
Once you get Oast that initial top, you
are into a vsy deep muddy puddte indeed,
because while setting up a BB5 is physically
quite easy, technically it is fraught with
difficulties the larger your system gets. The
trick is to start with a plan, and being the
kind soul I am, I thought now would be a
good time to tell you how it's all done.
The Three Point Plan goei He this; there
is a simple method, a medium method and
really devilishly complex method. Vou can
start at one End and wo* you way up to
the most complex configuration, or jump
right in at medium or complex, it's up to
you.
But J would advise that you hone your
sysop stills on a smaller system before you
start laying out dosh hand over Fist for a full-
size ten iir»e BBS and conferencing system
for the masses-
It's one thing to ma*.e an error on a small
system where you only have yourself to
blame, out try cockmg up when you have
1 00 angiy subscribed out for your blood.
and you'll wish you d listened to my advice.
SimPLEST
The simplest sort of BBS can be set up in
an afternoon, as you already have most of
what you need m your machine, if you're
into comms in any way that is. All you need
is a computet [One Amiga: checklj a
modem, and a bit or host software.
Them? is a natty little one which comes
with WComm which wifl do the job. All you
have to do is set your modem to answer, set
up the software and war for people do call.
Se ruing i
Oh, and it would be a good idea to tell
people you have set up a BBS or nobody will
can youl
You don't need to have another
phaneline dedicated to the BBS, as you just
have to limit the amount of hours the BBS is
active, say oefween 9pm in the evening and
Bam the next morning, or even just evenings
at weekends, and such. Most BBS freaks will
stay up late to catch a BBS-
As Far as the hardware is concerned, the
Amiga needs to have a hard disk to store the
BBS software and make the system run
reasonably fast. The modem should really
handle speeds up to f 4,1 DO baud, although
9,600 wifl suffice Thecomms software you
use will generally be free or shareware,
although if you really must spend the dosh
there are some very good programs
commercially available too.
The following hints really go for all types
of BBS. Before you can run a BBS. your
modem needs to be atte to automarjciiHy
pick up the phone and connect the user
who's dialling you up to your computer.
To set a modem to answer the phone you
have to lype ATSQ=4, whitn is the Hayes
code for autoanswer, the 4 in this case
means that the phone will ring four times
before being answered.
To set the modem back to non-answer
mode, simply jet ATStfcO Sometimes the
software wrll handle this automatically, but
check this out before you go typing in INfT
strings.
Secondly you have to .set up Ihe software.
This can be easy or hard depending on the
software, and usually just involves writing all
the text foe the menus and messages which

the user will see on the system. This
obviously involves a little bit of planning, so
design what you'd like the system to
include before you start menu hacking.
Finally you have to advertise that your
board is active and let people know what c
ii they can expect if they call it. Is ft a
machine specific board, full of Amiga i
Is it about gardening or conjuring? Is it a
full-colour, all-singing, all-dancing board
designed for entertainment; or just a simpr
text-driven information resource?
Forward planning b everything in tha
world, and if yotr want a system that
people will come back to, it has to be
clearly laid out and easy to use.

[fllCHV TITLE
A few points: Think Of a tatchy title.
Calling yourself the Greasy Sausage BBS is
jnfikety [a wirt you many fans, e*cept
perhaps among greasy sausage earers.
Try something with a soencefietfon or
fantasy flavour, like Crazy Robot. Grey Planet
Wizard's Demesne, or Warrior j Tomb- The
title of your BBS should reflect the kind of
BBS it is, so slipping the word Amiga m
there might help.
If it features a lor of file and chat areas
then the word Exchange is popular.
Organise the menus is a Jogital way, and
minimise the amount of input you demand
from the punter
Oh yes, and if your BBS software
pemnrj, why not use 'ANSI colour graphics?
These enhance the look of your board and
make it look professional - unless you're
no! so (lever with ANSI graphics of course,
in which case it looks like disorganised
crap.
Once you have experienced running
your own BBS on a single fine, and you've
built up a user base of enthusiastic
followers \Qf perhaps not], the time has
come to enpand to the next levef of being a
sysop - the dedicated fine,
This involves getting a mew BT line
running into your home 50 the BBS can run
1 4 hours a day. OK, so people can onty
access the system one at a tame, tout at feast
they have a wider choices of times of day
to call, especially with the new cheap
daytime phone raies.
If you are running a 2 4-hour BBS, then
the trick is to expand your hard dis*. get
better software which handres mwt
features, and thereby increase the
usefulness of your system.
As you are starting to lay out money for
your system, if may be as well have a
subscription too, meaning that sooner or
later you can make your money back on
the stuff that you've paid out for.
Subscriptions are best paid by cheque,
and when the cheque has been validated.

Jargon buster
ANSI; Stands far American National
Standards institute Generally refers to the
ANSI Character set, the standard character
set for computers, which although has
certain inconsistencies between platforms
like Amiga and PC, is the set used by BBS
software. It alio refers tD the coloured
graphics you see on BBSs.
bandwidth: The amount oF information
that can flow between two points at a
given time. Also used eo denote the
amount of information a person can
absorb before their bran swells up and
squirts out of their ears.
baud rate* Pronounced "bored'.
Commonly described as the rate at which
your modem can send and receive
information. Not the same as BPS. as baud
rate is the amount of modulation changes
per second on a grvert channel. Three
hundred bits per second is 600 baud, il
you want to be ptcky - see tuts per second
orBPS.
BPS: Bits per second. The number of
actual bits [rather than modulation
Changes) that a modem sends per second
- see also baud rate
Hay«; The Hayes command set is a set of
codes understood by almost all modems in
use today, based Dn a simple set of codes
prefixed by the letters AT. So ATZ is reset.
ATH is hang up and ATSQ=4 is auto answer
in four rings,
ISDN: Stands for Integrated Service Digital
Network, and is the cmJy fully digital
multiplexed tomms system we have. When
I say "we". I mean anyone with (he money
to have it installed. It replaces the old
analogue way of doing things with a full
digital network over normal EST" lines. It is
expensive though
R3212: One of the existing standards for
serial ports, which just so happens to be
the one adopted by the Amiga, Thi s
identifies not only the type of port but the
cables you need to use that port,
shareware: Freely distributed software
which you get to use for nothing for a
specified time, but after thar time you have
to pay the author. It's a very cosmic way
for software to change hands, and does
wonders for your karma, except if you
don't pay yp and use the software far free,
in whKh case you're damned for all time.
terminal: terminals used to be dumb
devices who's only job was to
communicate with another computer. They
consist of a screen, a keyboard and an
RS232 socket, plus a bit of simple software
m ROM. fou can emulate one of these old-
fashioned devices with a terminal emulator
program, like NComm.
letters form the Inland Revenue because
your accountant will get all the letters
too and deal wrth that for you as well.
Another slightly negative aspect of
being a sysop is that you might
unwittingly Tall foul of the law. if your
BBS is discovered to contain any
copyright software or porn,
Piracy and porn are the scourge of the
BBS business and every day you read in
the trade press about a BBS being i aided
and all the disks in the building being
impounded as evidence
This means not only any disks used by
the BBS but also any disk befangi ng to
you. your friends and also any hardware
you own. like modems and computers
etc. This can be a very expensive mistake,
and it would be wise to avoid any
possible problems by being very strict
about what you allow people to upload.
SHDI OFF
Post warning messages state that
anyone putting your BBS at risk by
uploading suspect material will be shot
off the system and not have their
subscription refunded, to cover the
administrative costs of sorting the mess
out.
Also you have to ensure that the
system is virus free, by routinely checking
everything which rs uploaded to the system.

for this by storing fonts in the Fonts drawer

contains simple preference information such

The devices above wifl then come Into use.
We now need to add a Single fife to the L
directory The file we need is tailed port-

AiwgaDOS interface for the SEP:, PAR: and
PITT: devices, These devices basically aftow
output to printers and modems,

once they are copied onto the disk the user
need never worry about them again. To
copy the file across use the following

Ijst. but by no means least we need to copy
a couple of libraries across to the bbs
directory The two fifes are called asUibrary
and diskfont. library. Ait. library provides the
file, font and screen requesters that
AmigaDOi uses and DfskfDnt.librajy contains
information that allows Workbench 3.0 to
interpret fonts and read them.
Diskfont's major advantage is that it arlows
two or more programs to multitask [be
loaded and running simultaneously) and use
the same font. Copy these fMes across with
the following commands

Before we go on to improve our aulo-

most common problems when dealing with
AmkjaDOS and how to get around them.
Let's take a loc* at the Shefl in closer
detail, Although it looks faitfy basic it
features a very useful facility that is not
immediately appa 'enr.
If a mistake is made when typing in an
ArnigaDQS command, most users will simply
re-type the command. However, this is not
necessary as the Shell has the ability to

drawers for ENV, T and CUPS stops RAM
from becoming cluttered,
You win notice that we have not assigned
EWVAHC which parnts to the preferences
defaults This is because EMVARt is built into
the ROM (Read Only Memory) and therefore
doesn't need to be manually assigned in the
sianup-seauence.
The reason we copy the ENVARt
preferences defaults into ENV in RAM is
because they are quicker to load and also
you can use your preferences without
retrieve previously entered commands with
the cursor up and cursor down arrow keys.
Another common problem is a failure to
copy libraries when copying utilities or
installing applications on a hard drive.
Remember, all AmigaDOS disks have the
same structure It rs important when
copying programs to make sure that any
relevant libraries are copied afso.
If you have ever seen a requester pop up

®re you ready for another trip
into the wonderful world of
6SO00 machine-code?
Following on from last month,
when we look over Che system and set up
a 32-rolour screen. Weir now add the
main character of the game, that littte
yellow blob that answers to the name of
Pacman.
What we went rs Pacman moving
around the saeen under joystick control,
so we'll need a routine id fead the joystick,
and another to draw the spnte onto the
screen
Of course we warn the sprite to be
animated too, as it would be a bit boring if
he wasn't. That's really no problem
though; we just need to change the
graphics part m the sprite-structure every
frame. What? Trust me!
First of all we need to decide whether
to haw Pacman as a software or hardware
sprite. Perhaps I'd better explain what the
difference is. A software sprite js one
physically drawn onto the screen Prima ps
with the WfKer; this takes time but there
are no restrictions to the number of bobs
(fflrtter OBjectif. their size or the number
of colour: they have
Packing
On the other hand we coufd use
hardware sprites, which are much easier to
use and don't take any processor time at all
to draw. There are drawbacks though
[aren't there always?] - m cheir basic form
there are eight hardware sprites which are
a fixed 1 6 pixels wide and can have only
Four COlOuifi, though two sprites can be
"attached', giving one with 16 colours.
collision
There is another advantage tD using
sprites of the hardware variety in that we
can use the hardware collision detection
registers to find out what spores have run
rnto other sprites, or a background colour,
it is much better to use trie nardware
collision registers if you can a; they are

pi«el-perfect in their collision detection and
of course take no professor time to
cafcufatel
Don't you just hate those games where
the programmer has taken it upon himself
to code his own collision detection routines,
but hasn't done a very good job of it, and
you are left fuming when your ship
explodes even though you know the other
ship drdn't touch you?
Talk about re-inventing the wheer, Air
right, f know that there sre times when you
can't use the hardware collision detection
registers, but they could at feast do as good
a job at coding their own routines!
There are other ways the hardware helps
you if you're coding your own cofJiiion
defection routines, eg the blitter has a
funcbon where you bfit two areas together
and you are tofd whether the two areas
touched, even with a single pixel, so there
really is no excuse for not coding a detent
coNision detection system
To keep things srmple I've decided to use
hardware sprites for Pacman and the
ghosts. As four colours are a little fin
for Pacman I'll attach two ^t<twnre i
to form a I b-cDlour one. The ghosts wd
need to be four-colour sprues though,
giving us up to six ghosts.
All right, now we've got that sone:
I'll go mto how we go about actually
setting up our sprites. The first thing to 1
is to set up the sprite structures, wh
in the form as shown in Fig I.
The first iwo words rn the structure am
the control words whpch contain the
sprite's x and y co-ordinates, the sc**»
after the last Jine of the sprrte fN) and
another bit defining if the sprite is
attached or not.
Following this rs the actual graphics
data of the sprite, le what you will aciLdtfs
see on the screen. At the end of all ths m
the control words for the next sprite - vs.

Reading the keyboard couldn't be easier, because
the hardware does all the tricky stuff like
handshaking the keyboard For you - all you have
to do If read the byte heMT ir* CIAASDR | JBFECO) J,
decode it [see the source code an the CoverDisk I
and there if the key code of the key being
pressed,
If you have a ropy of the Amlg a coders' bible,
more commonly known as the Amiga Hardware
Reference Manual, then took up page 2*9 to see
what codes apply to which keys,
Reading the joy* tick/mouse isn't quite as
staple, but isn t difficult either. You read
JOY DAT | JDFFOOA] for port 1 or JOY 1 0AT
fjDFFDOCj for port 2. The joystick hat four
switches fteft/nghfup/clownl. so when the
Joystick Is pressed diagonally, two switches are
closed (eg 'eft and i#p|.
So you've got the word you ve read from
JOYODAT or JOY1 DAT. If bit one ir one then the
right twitch is being pressed. If if I tera ther
not. Similarly If bit nine it one then the left switch
Reading the ports
is being pressed.
{short for Bit TeST), eg btst Sr9 r dQ, To test ir the
joystick has been pressed Forward or back Isn't as
straightforward' you wilf need to XOH bit iero to
bit one to find the state of the back switch, and
XOR bit right to bit nine to find the state of the
forward switch.
Again, if you can t get your head round what
I'm saying here then look: at this month's source
code to see how it's actually done in practice. We
want to test for the Fire button being pressed too
- the state of the Fire button is stored in bit snt of
CtAAPRA (iBFEOPT | for port one and bit seven for
port two; * zero means the Fire button it being
pressed while a one means »t isn't.
For eaampta the piece of code below would
wait tor the Fire button of the joystick plugged
into port two (the iwrnul joystick port) to be
pressed, you would call it with a bsr wait

While we re
how you read the mouse, lust like with the
joystick, you read JOYODAT or JOY1 DAT depending
on which port the mouse » plugged Into (usually
port one).
First ot ail. the word Is split into two bytes, the
high byte being the vertical state of the mouse ami
the low byte the heritonta! state. Now. what yon
have to do every frame is subtract the new x and j
values from the old values from the lart frame.
So what you are left with Is the difference fraea
the last frame to the present one for the horinntat
and vertical directions. If you want a mouse pointer
on the screen like the one on the workbench
screen then you just have to add these values to
your ■ and y co-ordinates, check that doesn't pat
the pointer off the screen, then call your routine
thar sets the sprites control words.

This dli' sounds pretty easy so far. bur
nothing in life is as easy as you first thinkl
To make life more drfficolt. Commodore
decided ro split up the Cits that make up trie
t.y&n coordinates, so the layout of the
control words ends up looking Pike Fig I. To
give a horizontal range of to 447 and ft
verticaf range of to about 300 requires
nine tuts of data [eight bits only give a
range from to 25SJ,
sicniFicflni
The most significant bits of the y co-
ordinate and the line after trie last line of
[tie sprite coordinate and the least
signrficant bit of the x co-ordinate are stored
m the last three bits of control word two.
while the other eight bits of each of them
are grouped together as bytes and stored ai
shown in Fig II.
Some coders don't bother using Y8 F NB &
KQ for ease of use [or because they're too
lazy to code a proper rautrnef; this means
thdt the Sprite can only be positroned on nr\
even x co-ordinate and can't enter the
bottom 56 lines of the screen'
Of course, we'll use a proper routine. To
see how the bits are set in the control
words look at the sourcE code on this
month's CoverDisk. The way J do rt is to
work on the co-ordinates as separate words
and then every frame, set che control words
from them.

Now as fVe said before, the main

sprites once you've done all of the tricky
stuff of setting the control words on the
first sprite - alF you have to do is copy the
control words from the first sprite to the
second one so they both appear at exactly
the same position on the' screen, then just
set che attach bit of the second sprite's

The sprites you attach must be sprite
pairs though, ie you can attach sprite one
to sprite zero, sprite three to sprite two,
sprite five to sprite four and sprite seven to
sprite sin Yqv couldn't, for example,
attach sprite two to sprite six.
The sprite pairs are used for Other
things too. like hardware collision
detection; you can only test for collisions
between sprite pairs, eg if sprite zero or
one has hit sprite four or five, or sprite six
or seven
Same thought therefore needs to be
given to which sprites you use for which
things; if you were writing a Breakout-
style game with the bat and ball as
hardware sprites, you wouldn't want to
make the bat sprite and the ball sprite I
as you couldn't use the hardware method
to detect a collision between them.
The sprite pairs come up agam when
you come to set the sprite's colours. Each

B^l ontmuing our saga on interfacing
I with flStexx, this month we are
I looking at function hosts. In contrast
■■■fl to a command host, which allows
specific commands to be sent to it. a function
host allows new (unctions to be added to
Affeax. as If the host was a library.
The functions added are global, and they wilt
be available to any calling ARexx program; the
program does not even need to- know that the
host is running, as this is taken tare of by the
resident process.
There are advantages and disadvantages to
using function hosts. On the minus side, the
global naming convention used by function
hosts could cause a name clash.
It may also be better for a met to know that
he u sending his messages to a specific package
- this way he has a clearer idea of what is
going on
On the plus side, function hosts handle
results, in a neater manner than command
hosts, since you do not have to use the:
BFTtOftS KlfilTij ; MJPUS5 'Ittltld-
dr«s' 'hojttomrd'; i-HESULT;. . .
kludge. Wth a function host afl you need is an
expression like:
i=hoiHurtetiQnCar$uie«til
to achieve the same end. Ultimately, the choice
of which .interface to use depends on the
programmer and the specific program
requirements.
Broadly speaking, there srs two cases where
you are likely to need an ARewi interface. Their
distinction is by no means clear cut. and there
can be a qrwi deal of overlap, They are when
the program needs to be controlled externally.
perhaps remotely, and when it needs to
provide a batch language for its users.
in the first case, a command host is probably
a better idea, while in the second case a
function host may do a better job. especially if a
lot of results are involved.
Since - for the purposes of ARexx - a
function host behaves pretty much like a library,
it could be used to prototype a library of useful
functions
By now, you should be quite familiar with
the ARexx hierarchy or function resolution, le I ,
program defyned functions. 1 built-in ARex*
functions. 3. libraries and function hosts, and 4.
external fiRsxx macro programs fin REXX: or
the current directory].
The flXUB command |without any
argumentsi will show you all the libraries and
hosts available to the ARexx system at any time,
This command is also used to attach new
libraries, but function hosts are responsible Tor
attaching themselves to the system This is
described below.
We have already said that despite their
apparent differences, function hosts and
command hosts are quite similar m their
underlying structure The main differences are
in the w-ay that the message gets to the host,
and the way that the arguments and results are
handled.
However, both hosts are quite similar m their
basics. Once it gets a valid message, the host
must decode the i?exxArgs [see previous issuef
so that it knows what the command/function
is and what the arguments are.
From then on, it is entirely up to the
programmer to decide what action to take.
When ji is time to reply to the message
| preferably as soon as possrble/ the approbate
KexKArgs are created, stuffed into the message
slots, and the message is then replied to.
In order for the function host to register itself
with AHexx. so that Aflexx an check if any
undefined functions belong to it, it must send a
special command |rm_Action;i to the resident
process.
This is fcnown as the RKADDf H command
and is defined as the four-byte value
O7OCiO0uu r x. It is the first command that must
be sent by the hast. After this, the function host
will be checked for all calls which are not
program-defined or built-in.
When the RXADDFH command is sent. Its
first argument is the name of the host's port.
and its second argument is the port's priority
Likewise there is a RXREMFH command for
when the function hosts wants to disconnect
from the Arte** system.
Since just about every element of the Arr
OS kernel has a priority, ports are no exception
and tjiis can be used to give a small increase m
speed by giving the port a slightfy higher
priority than other ARexK ports running at the
same time.
This means that this port will be the first one
encountered when the system list are
searched, incidentally, you may have noticed
that this is the same technique employed by
the RexxView utility which was included in the
last issue
By creating a port called REXX and giving i
a slightly higher priority than the regutar REXX
port, it allows it to intercept any messages
going to REXX so that we can monitor them
before they are passed them on to their
Func ti

egitimate owner. This may not be the most
?qa\ of Al?exx programming techniques, but it
■ certainty handy for our purposes at this
stager
Here is a code fragment showing how a
*unctron host would add itself" to the system.
Ife use the same system that we have usetf in
our examples; so far. ie an ARexx program
which combines rexxsupport. library calls, along
with a number of exec, library calls where
rexAsupport is not flexible enough. We use
rxgen. library to access the Exec functions
directly from ARex*. |See Listing I],
Far the sake of ctarrty we do not Include any
checks here, but, of course, they are essentia if
the program is to have any semblance ol
robustness, The host must also release the
system at some stage using RXftEMFH.

program ne*t time. See vdu then..

There are Several Other uses for this kind of
script m conjunction with a tool manager;
since they allow such a high degree of
customisation, they will be mainly dependent
on the user.
They can be used to repHate much of the
work of bulky directory managers. Some of
the commoner uses f have found include
handling the Aflexx tracing console, creating
a friendlier interlace to arcFiivers like zoo and
Jha. getting directory sizes and information
about files, as well as several specialised and
individual uses.
Some of these uses could be handled by
AmigaDQS scripts, tut most woufd be too
aiwltward, especially If they t»ad nontnviaf
parsing or mathematical requirements,
With AmigaDOS you might find the need
for custom commands, whereas Aflexx Jets
you write them yourself. It provides an ideal
and integrated way to tint: up everything in
your system. Happy experimenting,,.

ditincj is where the video finally
comes together - it's a time when a
had film can be rescued and a good
.'deo ruined with clumsy, Inappropriate
..King And lack of timing.
Time code is the heart of any editing suite.
The system offers a means of identifying each
zansecutive frame of recording with a
mutative time counter. This reading is given
*i eight figures - hours, minutes, seconds and
ties.
It allows mafenal to be lined up down to the
ast frame and afso gives the editing suite a
point of reference when asked to perform a cut
- without one. it couldn't operate.
One of the most common probJems
encountered with amateur videos are the
Timing of the cuts. This isn't usually dawn ta
Til* lime-eon* display a* found
m protB%sronaI editing xuitox
lime-coding
made
simple
the editor out more the equipment that is
being used - without the time code, you'll oe
relying on luck to give you accuracy.
in professional broadcasting, frame
accuracy has to be exact. Simply working
with two video recorders connected by 3
couple of leads is not enough - there is no
way of setting them to run at the same time
and the same speed without spending some
cash on necessary Amiga hardware to aid you
in your endeavour a.
There are different types of time code
systems on offer, the two most common for
the amateur being VJTC and flCTC. V1TC
(Vertical Interval Time Code) is found on VHS
M If you want your video to
look as if it just rolled out
of the BBC, then accurate and
polished editing is vital, mt
video recorders and camcorders The code is
written onto the tape as it passes by the
video heads,
This ii done by placing the necessary
information as lines at the start of each video
track Fortunately, when replayed, this info is
out of sight and is only read tiy the recorder.
It's vital that the time code ii recorded
during shooting and if not then, during a
copying process that'll lay down one for you
SHDDTinC
flCTC (Rewritable Commercial Time Code)
allows the user to rewrite or add the code
after the material has been shot, as well as
recording it during shooting. This leadi to
much more flexibility and versatility due to its
unrestnctive nature.
Another important and time-saving advantage
fldam Phillips
takes a dose
looh at
timg-tading,
one of the
most crucial
elements of
any editing
of time code is the help it can offer when lagging
the tapes. As discussed a few months back in
these pages. Jogging is a process, where all the
shots on each tape are written down with thetr
respective time code readings
fn the editing suite, this means that shots
can be found easify and with speed thus
saving money and frustration. It's vital that the
tape you are going to record your video on to
is time-coded as well.
Without, the mac hrne will be able to read
the tape that images are to come From but it
won't be able to place them on the receiving
recorder. The preparation process is cafled
black' n' bursting.
This simply means that you place the
cassette into a time code generator and
record black onto the tape therefore
preparing it for editing. Tfws is easily achieved
by placing the tap on the lens and detaching
the microphone to rrd the tape of d\n^
unwanted noise.
Another usefuJ tip if you're doing several
cuts of the video: its advisable to make copies
of the original footage and use these for the
ott-itnc versions |the rough cut, second cut
and so onj. This puts less wear and tear on
the originals and helps prevent any harm
coming to them before the frnaf cut is reached
via dirty heads or coffee spoilages - (after all, no-
one is perfect).
Above all, if you want your video to look as
if it just rolled out of the BBC, then accurate
and polished editing is vital.
Clever
camcorders
Some camcorders have built-in time code
generators or, usually, an add-on that can
be plugged straight in to the unit.
Whenever the machine begins to record, it'll
automatically start to lay the time code
down on the tape and it's common to see
this displayed via the wewfrnder.
You 'If find that, once in an editing suite
that has the right compatibility and a time
scode reader (either provided by the original
camcorder or a VCR with a reader), the time
will appear on the editing console digital
display.

oi everyone either wants, or ran
afford, an Amiga music system built
around heavyweight sequencer and
notation software like Dr T's KCS and Copyist
software.
There are however plenty of users who are
finding that some sort or notation facilities are a
useful extra to have around and 3t Ihe more
affordable end of the market there are two
Amrga music programs that, to same extent fit
the bill.
One erf these is Deluxe Music 2. tile new
version of Electronic Arts' Delude Music
Cartstiuction Set program which made a
relatively quiet entry into the marketplace during
the ratter part of last year.
Because or its price, integral store handling
facilities, the ability to operate with both Midi
and internal Amiga sounds, and the fact that it is
primarily aimed at home users, the program
superficially Qftm comparison to the other
affordable notation-oriented contender - Dr T's
Tiger Cub. t say superficially because white these
two packages have all the above goals in
common, they are actuaNy aimed at very
different markets as far as usage is concerned.
Deluxe Music 2 is not a sequencer as such -
it's more an interactive musical notation
program. Composition revolves around Deluxe
Music's Score Window which appears on the
screen, together with the Tool Window and
Piano Keyboard, when the program first loads.
You enter music into this window in one of
four ways: By loading a song from disk; by
selecting nates from a Tool window and
dropping them onto the staff,; by praying them
on the on-screen piano keyboard, or by entering
them via a Midi keyboard connected to your
Amiga with a Midi interface,
Deluxe Music 2 is easy to use and the latest
version has many new features. Up to 48 Staves
can be used, you can have multiple song
projects open at the same time, arid there i£
improved note resolution |6<th notes and nests
and septupled are available]
A stand-alone player module, keystroke
macros and an Aftexx interface have been added
and the Midi options now include- some long
awaited Midi file support.
The key element us far Deluxe Music is
concerned however is that the score display
facilities are interactive. Once entered into a

score, notes and chord positions are still
completely flexible so you can click on notes and
drag them to a new position. You can also move
notes and chords horizontally in the same
manner
Because of this, Deluxe Music <s particufarfy
suitable for educational purposes and you can,
for instance, mark sections of a song for repeats
then have the notes of the song flashed as the
section 15 played. When you are learning to read
musrt suctj facilities are quite useful
TEETHinC
One piece of bad news that hasn't received
the attention that it should is that Deluxe Music
seems to be having more than rta fair share of
teething troubles
I ve even been able to crash the program at
trmes by just attempting to load a Midi file [same
load OK. some dors'tj. To their credJt Electronic
Arts are rapidly sorting out the problems, so if
you've already bought a copy and are having
difficulties then get onto EAs technical support

Dr T's Tiger Cub goes in rather a different
direction to Deluxe Music. Basically Tiger Cub is
a I ?-track Midi sequencer with rock solid timing
that also offers good internal sound facilities. In
add ton tg this the package includes a
QuicKScore module which is able to convert
Tiger Cub sequence data Into conventional
musical scores.
Unfike Deluxe Music, though, the score
handling facilities are view/print only (although
some notation display adjustments sre
prdvidedj. To edit notes you mult leave
QuickScore and return to Tiger Cub's sequencer-
style editing.
These edit facilities revolve around a notation
scheme whereby notes are displayed as
horizontal bars with the horizontal length of a
bar indicating the duration of the note.
The height of a particular note stem
represents the note on velocity; it measures
how hard notes are struck (both of these
aspects can be edited individually using the
mouse},
The graphic editor works on a single track at
a time using a track window which provides
gadgets for inserting, copying and moving
notes, changing the edit screen display
magnification and so on. There's also a
controller window available for editing
controllers, pitch bend data, aftertouch and
soon.
Tiger Cub can be used without any Midi
equipment at all but in all honesty it functions
best as an entry4evef Midi sequencer, in this
guise it does a very good job indeed.

I#e to see your programs, and the last
few months have seen a cascading pile
of disks coming my way, conteNnmq
programs and games. The stuff has all been of an
unusually high quality and I'm very impressed, ft
just goes to show if you place a programming tool
of sufftaent complexity in the hands of enough
people, you can create a lot of creative stuff.
I think the big software Jiouses touW learn a
iliing of two from you. A big thanks to everyone
who has sent m a program recently. Jf you want to
tend something tb me, then check out my
sutjmission guidelines below.
One of the best routines I've seen this month n a
unique method of sending text onto the screen,
created by Malcolm Lavery. Mai has contributed a
number of routines on disk and we'll be visiting his
jounce code periodically over the next few months.
This routine sends text snowing in from the top
Of the screen. The effect is quite hypnotic, and very
cleverly done.

hy would we want to retouch a
photograph? Well, there are three main
reasons. The most obvious one is to
repair damaged photographs, usually old ones.
This is a painstaking but very worthwhile
■ne. and possibly a profitable one too.
Purists might argue that a digital version of
the photo is not the same mint), thai part of the
attraction is the age of the photo, and even the
smelt" of it, but if the image is fading, preserving
[fiat image has to he the mpjt important thing.
People will pay to have their old photos
restored to their former glory. Once in the
computer, a slide-show of photos can be
transferred to video tape, which is a hit tacky but
by far the cheapest option, or on to CMOM in
jny file format they wish, or printed on a dye
sublimation printer - the resets or which will be
almost indistinguishable from a real photograph.
The recent launch of the Fargo Pnmera dye
sub printer has brought the power of this
printing process within the pocket of the very
small business.
A second reason for retouching photos is to
enhance one or more features in the photo The
fashion magazine industry uses photo
retouching ratemrvely tor almost all po*traits of
models, especially cover portrarts,
bps are smoothed, re-shaped and re-coloured.
3d and wayward strands of hair are removed.
Eyes are brrghtened and often re-shaped to loo*
sexier or more innocent.
Retouching fashion photos is a highly sWJed
and highly paid job. To get proper photo-realistic
results you have to work with massive 24-bit or
32-bit images, perhaps 4,000 prxels wide by
5,000 prxels high
Lots; of memory is required, lots of hard disk
space is regurred, and the fastest possible CPU is
f equrned, and even then it can take a whole day
to retouch just one photo.
A third reason for retouching is what I use it
for most - altering photos. There are a million
reasons why you would want to alter a photo
One Obvious reason is 10 combine bits of two or
more photos into one graphic, or compositing as
it is called Another is to turn a mediocre
photograph into a better one, which is what my
example this month is ail about,
Take a look at the original photo shown.
There are two elementary things wrong with it.
f-irst, someone has walked behind one of the
grrt's heads jusi when the photo was snapped 1 .
Second, the group is not trght enough, in fact
the giri on the right is being totally excluded
from the group because she is so far away from
the boy. fixing this rype of problems is a lot
easier than it might at first appear - provided
In (ha original

dnvr-
If the Amiga is not AGA then you really do
need a 2 4 -bit graphics card, but if you've gat a
beefed-up AI20D or A40O0. then working on a
Harrnfl screen will be plenty good enough.
UIHIUHL
Software-wise you need either GiPs fmagef X
or Black Belt's Imagemastei [ADPro cannot do
this sort of thmg|. My preierence is ImageFX
because it has its own builMn virtual memory;
Imagemasler. alas, doesn't, and it doesn't work
with GigaMem very well.
Removing (he man behind the girl's head
was achieved with ImagefX's Pantograph
feature. This tooi copies pixefc from one area to
another.
The job was done in three pits. First I copied
«. U

lagrrthar. Hmve U 3 Cod look
and *•* it you can spot th*
tmll-taia mi?n* o» retouching
pixefs of the lower beach over the guy's trunks
and thigh, then pixels of the sunbathing area
over his upper torso, then I manually painted
aver his head, which was the easreit part
because ail i had to do was extend the door and
wall of that building.
Man removed, the next job was to bring these
three young people together. And it is as simple
as cutting out brushes and repositioning them.
What makes the retouching invisible to the
human eye is the bfendmg of the edges of the
brush, or feathering as ImageFX calls it.
J set quite a short Wend, just four pixels, and
for the girl on the right I first cut out a
IH tdngular brush of the whole of the right half
of the photo, cutting just to the left of the girf's
Skirt on the swimsu-r
I then moved this as far across toward the boy
as I could without overlapping him, then pasted
rt down, tittle tip here: Use the left Amiga key
and the cursor xeys for finer control over
positioning brushes Left Amiga-Left Ait is the
keyboard equivalent of pressing the ieft mouse
burton, and will stamp down the brush
Lastly I cut out one giri after the other as lasso
brushes and move them even closer to the boy,
every so slightly overlapping the boy with the
girt on hrs left (the one wrth red hat) as she is
leaning away slightly and strif looked like she
would rather be somewhere else,
Save in Iff 24 format, and that's rt. if you
know some retouching has been done and you
Joe* closely, you mightjusrbeableto see some
tell-tale signs But no one else wrU see them, and
you will be hailed m a genius and, with any luck,
paid lots of money for your time and trouble.
