NASSAU, Bahamas, July 19 - Le Meridian, a 

graceful resort hotel on fashionable Cable Beach. 

hardly seems a spot for a fight. It is a place of manicured 

lawns. swaying palms, sandy beaches and 

emerald water. Travellers normally come here for 

the relaxing pleasure of the tropics and line dining 

at the hotels gourmet restaurant. 

But suddenly on Friday, amidst the usual gathering 

of sun-tanned women in bikinis and men in 

shorts, appeared a small army of two dozen 

lawyers. mostly men in dark suits bearing overstuffed 

briefcases. 

They came to do battle over the carcass of 

Commodore International Ltd. the once mighty 

maker of small computers which had its North 

American headquarters in West Chester. They 

came for the first official meeting of Commodore's 

Bahamian committee of creditors. 

It is a fight over the company's assets, over the 

future Otis technology, over how much of its $145 

million debt will be paid and, not surprisingly when 

lawyers get together, over legal jurisdiction. 

Commodore, whose stock was traded on the 

New York Stock Exchange until May, was registered 

in the Bahamas, and the company initiated its 

own liquidation in the Bahamian Supreme Court. 

The court-appointed Bahamian liquidators so far 

have received at least four proposals to buy 

Commodore, including one from the management 

team, its subsidiary in the UK, the only one of the 

company's units still profitable when the firm went 

out of business. 

The other suitors are Amstrad Plc, a UK 

computer firm; Philips Electronics of the 

Netherlands, and Samsung Electronics of Korea. 

But before there is a sale, lawyers for 

Commodore's principal creditors would like to have 

the bankruptcy proceedings moved, or at least have 

parallel proceedings opened in the US Bankruptcy 

Court in New York. 

"The biggest problem we are having is that the 

Americans don't trust the Bahamians to do the liquidation," 

said Paul L Adderly, the attorney for the 

two liquidators. 

"What can you do about that?" asked Adderty in 

exasperation. 'We are not entirely ignorant of these 

matters in the Bahamas." 

But lawyers for the main creditors see things differently. 

It is not just the competence of the 

Bahamians they have called into question, but the 

efficacy of Bahamian law. 

Under Bahamian law, a creditor's committee has 

an advisory role while under US law, the creditors 

onus 

011 ADAM NiltilP5 

fommodoreP5 ameditor5 gather 

to do battle 

would have more of a say over final disposition of 

the assets. 

Also. Bahamian law permits the liquidators to go 

back and judge, and possibly reverse, management 

actions involving assets three months before bankruptcy 

was declared. American law permits a year 

So tar, the Bahamian court has rejected motions 

from the creditors to have the proceedings moved to 

New York_ 

Meanwhile, the creditors are seeking a ruling in 

US Bankruptcy Court tn the Southern District of New 

York to seize jurisdiction or at least open parallel 

proceedings. 

The principal opposing creditors are Prudential 

Insurance Co. of America and a subsidiary. Pruco 

Life Insurance Co. both of Newark, NJ, which are 

owed a total of S28 million: Anchor National Life 

Insurance Co of Los Angeles. owed $6 million, and 

Daewoo Telecom and Daewoo Corp of Korea, owed 

$15 million. 

The creditors have questions about actions taken 

by the Commodore management team shortly 

before and right after the liquidation filing in the 

Bahamas on May 2. 

They want to challenge management's transfer of 

a Commodore unit from one subsidiary to another,

and they have questions about the conduct of 

Commodore's former president, Medhi R Ali. 

Ali Med to gel Prudential and Daewoo to agree to 

allow liquidation proceedings to go unchallenged in 

the Bahamas, in return for a vague promise that they 

would get 50 cents on every dollar of debt. 

According to an affidavit filed in the Bahamian 

Supreme Court by Stephen M Richmond, an attorney 

representing the creditor's committee. Ali 

claimed he had a foreign buyer for the company and 

the sale would proceed quickly if there was not a 

legal tangle in New York. 

Richmond, a gruff Boston-based lawyer, said that 

Ali refused to tell him who the potential purchaser 

was or what the terms of the sale were. 

Ali is no longer associated with Commodore. 

Reached Monday by telephone at his home in 

Ridgefield, Connecticut, and asked for comment, Ali 

shouted. 'You're intruding on my home. I'll complain 

to your editor. You're an idiot." He then hung up. 

The Bahamian court-appointed liquidators are 

Franklyn Wilson and McGregor Robertson. two part 

ners in the Bahamian offices of Delotte & Touche, a 

major accounting firm. 

Wilson said on Monday he hoped to complete the 

sale of Commodore's assets "very quickly", but he 

declined lo be more specific. 

Amid all the men In dark suits last week was a 

bearded, casually dressed British national, David 

Pleasance, managing director Of Commodore's UK 

subsidiary and a leader of the management team 

trying to buy all of the company. 

"We might as well try. We have a good business 

in the UK. a very good business," said Pleasance, 

who came to the Bahamas to get to know the company's 

major creditors. 

If the management buyout is successful, 

Pleasance said operations would be moved 

to England, but that the company would like to 

keep research and development facilities in 

Norristown. 

"These are very good people. " Pleasance said. 

"We would like to keep them."

Forward 

Alto the surprise announcement last month that various members 

from Commodore were attempting their own buyout, a 

rumour has surfaced that Steve Franklin. former managing 

director of Commodore UK, is also making a bid for the 

company. 

Franklin declined to comment on the situation. David 

Pleasance, the current UK managing director, thinks "it's highly 

unlikely" that the former head is in a position to offer a 

substantial bid. 

Pleasance's own plans are apparently moving forward and 

he hopes that the question of Commodore's future will be 

resolved "In the next two to three weeks." He believes that their 

offer is the highest and feels confident of a successful result. 

According to an article in the Chicago Tribune, both Amstrad 

and Philips have lost interest in a buyout, partly down to the 

legal delays. Samsung is interested in the intellectual-properly 

rights of Commodore's products, but is dismissive with the 

computer firm's inventory or other products. 

A potential buyer has appeared in the shape of Creative 

Equipment International based In Miami. who are in the process 

of submitting a bid. 'There is a pent-up demand for the product," 

CEI president Alex Amor commented. I think it can be 

very successful if it is brought back to the market: 

The legal tanglings over the liquidation though are causing 

serious concerns with people close to Commodore. - 

The urgency arises because we are dealing with an asset which is 

perishable," said Franklyn Wilson, a liquidator in Bahamas. 

"It is an industry where change is the greatest constant. This 

technology needs to be constantly updated to stay current."

IP- Amiga de5igner 

Od5525 Nag 

With the future of Amiga in doubt, its original 

creator, Jay Miner, passed away on June 20 

in California. His litelong kidney problems 

finally took his Ide. 

Seen as the Father of the Amiga. Jay had 

a long and accomplished career - he helped 

design the Atari VCS games console and 

was an integral member of the team that created 

the original Amiga chipset 

His later achievements included the 

Atari Lynx. an under-rated handheld that

Long may his Commodore creations 

continue 

tommunicator II 

Only a few months after the release of the 

Communicator, the Netherland-based 

company Eureka have announced the 

imminent arrival of its sequel - the 

Communicator II. 

The original hardware allowed the connection 

of the CD32 to any Amiga and PC. By 

using the CD32 as a serial 2-way CD-ROM 

drive, multimedia presentations including 

WV (through the use of the FMV cartridge), 

Photo CO's and audio can be controlled and 

created. 

The Mark II version improvements include 

an extra keyboard plug for A2000/3000, a 

serial cable that is now a DB25 serial to 

RJ10 plug and a new casing design. 

Extra software has also been introduced 

from Mediapoint that aids audio and video 

control to a variety of PD titles. 

The Communicator II costs approximately 

E99 and will be reviewed in next months 


FleHidump upgraded 

and improued 

Care Electronics, makers of Flexidump 3, 

have released an enhanced veision of the 

program which the company claims can 

remove banding and white lines from all dot 

matrix and bubble jet printers. The company 

says that ribbon life is extended and print 

quality is very consistent. 

The new system, called "shingling,* adds 

to the recent additions of dithering and 

anti-abasing in the latest version. Anyone 

with Flexidump 3 that doesn't include the 

"shingling" option can upgrade free of 

charge. 

For those with an earlier version ot 

Flexidump an upgrade is available tO 

04.95. Care Electronics can be reached 

0923 894064.

As Lightwave PAL finally reaches the shores of the 

UK. the 24Bil Club is releasing the Lightwave 

Collection Sets 1 & 2 to aid artists with their work. 

Costing E29.95 each, each set contains 10 disks 

filled with objects, scenes, fonts and textures and 

comes complete with a user guide.

To combat the tedium of BBS login screens, a group of 

Sysops (system operators] have decided to create 

MAXIink. a networking bulletin board, The idea behind 

the scheme is once a user has joined and all their 

details have been taken, the data is passed on to all the 

other MAXIM BBS. 

This in turn provides instant membership to all the 

bulletin boards under the MAXiink banner and saves 

the user time and money.

In a bid to provide a better deal for the 

customer, Silica have introduced a comprehensive 

extended warranty on its products, 

including games consoles, with the 

launch of "SilicaCare". 

The scheme provides repair and 

replacement of parts, including major 

hardware such as hard drives and monitor 

tubes, for a single or whole computer 

system. 

The warranty can be arranged for up to 

five years, tailoring the needs of the individuals. 

If you have an Amiga computer 

system worth up to E1500. for a two year 

policy il costs E38 for free repairs, delivery 

and courier service. 

As high-tech games consoles and 

computers become a part ol everyday 

homes, more non-technical users want 

the assurance of a total service package.

peace of mind that should anything go 

wrong, it will be immediately fixed." stated

Logik to see when they'd release the 

much-awaited PageStream 3.0. the company 

slipped a surprise upgrade Out the door. 

TypeSmdh, the premier font editor for the Amiga. 

has been updated to version 2_5. 

The biggest improvement in this new version is 

the addition of support for TrueType fonts_ 

TrueType is the standard outline font system on 

both the Macintosh and Microsoft Windows, so you 

can find the fonts just about everywhere. (On this 

side of the pond, you can buy a CD-ROM with over 

500 TrueType fonts for only S19.95!) 

Although no Amiga applications directly support 

TrueType typefaces, TypeSmith will let you convert 

them to formats that can be used with Amiga applications 

such as PageStream, WordWodh, Final 

Writer, Brilliance, and LightWave 3-D_ 

TypeSmith 2,5 supports saving and loading fonts 

In TrueType, PostScript Type 1, Compugraphic 

InteMont (the Amiga's native bitmap font format), 

Solt-Logik, and IFF RFF formals. You can create 

your own fonts, or automatically trace digitized font 

pictures or bilmap fonts. 

With previous versions of TypeSmith. converting 

large batches of fonts was a tedious operation, 

forcing you to select each typeface individually. 

TypeSmith 2.5 adds a new Batch Convert ARexx 

macro that lets you convert an entire directory of 

fonts with the press of a single key. Full 

AmigaGuide help makes using both new and old 

features a snap. 

The program retails for $199.95. If you own 

TypeSmith 2_0, you can upgrade tor $25 plus shipping 

and handling ($5 USA/Canada. $15 

International); TypeSmith 1,0 owners pay $65 plus 

shipping and handling.

rho Antiga's ultimate font editor enjoys 

yet another impressive upgrade 

to update to version 4.0 on the platform of your 

choice. 

LightWave 4.0 will otter the same basic features 

set on all platforms, as well as full cross-platform 

compatibility. This means that you could, for instance, 

create a complex scene on your Amiga at home, 

save it to disk. and take it to work where you could 

render it on a blazing-fast Pentium 90 or SGI system. 

Like Axiom, NewTek has stressed its commitment

Axiom Software has completely rewritten their 3D 

obiect designer program, Pixel 3D, from the 

ground up. The new version, Pixel 3D Professional 

Version 2 (Axiom calls it PerPro2 for short). has an 

improved interface and sports many powerful new 

features. 

Axiom's president. Scott Thede. promises that. 

unlike some US companies, Axiom will continue to 

develop products for the Amiga. "To be completely 

honest," he says, - 

we could program a t the Amiga for the rest of our lives;

support in PixPro2, taking advantage 

of the higher resolutions and deeper palettes avail- 

h 

able on those machines. 

w 

The program now has full support for both 

e 

PostScript fonts and PostScript files. Bitmap support 

is amazing, with an artificial-intelligence 

bitmap-to-3D conversion, simplified bitmap 

smoothing, and the ability to link to ASDG's Art 

Department Professional to automatically convert 

24-bit files. 

Creation of 3D objects is simple, with both point 

editing and polygon painting techniques available. 

Objects can be twisted, stretched, and bevelled. 

Complete ARexx support makes batch processing 

simple, and object hierarchies simplifies working 

with complex 3D structures. 

PixPm2 handles loading, saving, and conversion 

of 17 file formats, including LightWave 

scenes. Imagine hierarchies, AutoDesk 3D Studio 

binary and ASCII formats_ and WaveFront. 

Axiom says that PixPro2's AutoCAD DXF support 

is the most comprehensive available on the 

Amiga. 

A professional program, PixPro2 retails for 

$299•95. Upgrades from version 1.0 are $99.99.

R&D on what they do best - making home 

computers. 

With the likes of Panasonic. Sony and 

Sanyo moving in to the gaming arena flexing 

their rather financially well-developed muscle, 

a company like Commodore which, as we all 

know is having a rather difficult time of it at the 

moment concerning cash flow. may well be on 

a position, even with a new buyer, where they 

simply can't compete. 

Up until last year, the market-place was 

dominated by Nintendo and Sega but with 

huge corporate industries swooping in to 

clean the market place up, what real hope has 

the CO32 got in the grand scheme of things? 

While the console is doing well in Britain, 

the market here is small fry compared to the 

all important US and Japanese sectors where 

the real money is made. 

Another argument is the kind of software 

that is available for the machine. While David 

Pleasance of Commodore UK may well 

• be telling us that there are plenty of CD32specific 

titles winging their way to the grey 

lunchbox, punters in the meantime are consistently 

having to put up with the usual port 

overs from the A500 and 1200. 

The words FMV ring out in defence but 

alas, nothing has appeared across any format 

to warrant the splashing out of the extra cash. 

Okay, this leaves us with the apparently huge 

market for music and video CDs that can be 

plugged straight in to your machine. 

This may well be the best hope for the 

Commodore machine but again, is it enough 

with a household that usually boasts a video 

recorder and stereo system anyway? 

For a CD32 with FMV, it'll end up costing

round E450 plus money for a decent set of 

Speakers to gel the most out of the image 

and music-playing facilities. 

So with all this negative reinforcement, 

what can Commodore do once it's found a 

buyer? Let's say that the most likely option of 

a management buyout does go ahead - 

there will be very little money for continuing 

production lines, let alone sinking cash in to 

R&D. 

How can the once great company that 

used to steal the limelight on the small amateur 

dramatics stage of computing face the 

full blown, all dancing and singing production 

of some of the largest companies on the face 

of the planet? 

FRUITFUL 

By concentrating on what Commodore do 

best - home computers. Whether sailing on 

the sweet breeze of success or drowning in 

the choppy seas of the ill-fated DOS attempt, 

the Amiga range in Europe has continually 

been buoyant and fruitful. 

Indeed, could the CD32 turn in to another 

hopping-on-the-bandwagon disaster where 

Commodore simply don't have the financial 

clout to get their product seen or heard 

about, 

The CD32 may well hold the market share 

In the UK over the Mega CD and PC CD- 

ROM but, in real terms, the market-place is 

tiny at the moment. 

Take your average home computer buyer.

When they wander down to the nearest 

Dixons, they no longer have a choice. With 

the Atari ST and Falcon well and truly buried 

under a heap of bad management and diabolical 

marketing, it has left Commodore in a 

prime position for tempting the low-price 

bracket buyer. 

You have a choice, Either cough up over 

El .000 for a PC that may be redundant in 

three years unless you splash Out more 

money on a mother board upgrade, or buy 

an inexpensive home computer that can 

word process, DTP, play games and has 

consistent and impressive software support 

- the Al200 and beyond. 

With this lack of competition and possibilities 

for a potentially huge customer base, 

Commodore is in an ideal and enviable position 

where they already have a strong reputation 

for quality. durability and boast excellent 

European distribution. With the allimportant 

and precious cashf low, this seems 

to be the Only logistical path for the company 

to follow_ 

Who can touch them with computers for 

under E400? The answer. Not Sony, not 

Panasonic, not Hewlett Packard - in fact, 

nobody, Give up the console ghost - the 

competition just moved Out of the playground 

and in to the battle field where only 

the cash-loaded, PR-pumped strongest 

survive.

be formatted into DFO and either press y to continue or 

n to abort. 

Provided you answer y, the disk you insert will be 

formatted and the application de-archived. 

Installing utilities 

You should first run the MakeUtilitiesDisk_l .3 to formal 

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 it becomes full. The MakeUtihtiesDiskl.3 program 

will be a permanent feature of the CoverDisk. 

To install any utilities, boot your machine with your 

CoverDisk inserted in DFO. Utilities can be installed by 

clicking on their install icon found in the appropriate 

drawer in the WB_1.3_0nly drawer. You cannot specify 

their destination and any additions to the Startup- 

Sequence must be done manually. 

When installed the utilities are copied to a drawer 

called ACUtils on the ACUalrties disk.

with AmigaDOS displaying a "disk

write-enabled disk is inserted. Just 

make sure you insert a blank disk 

when the installer programs tell you - 

and not - o r 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 

de-archived, you are asked to specify a 

directory on your hard drive or Workbench 

disk where you would like to install them. 

If you don't want to install to the default 

directory you can change it by clicking on 

Change Destination. The Show Drives button 

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 

New Drawer button and typing in the name. 

You can also make a utilities disk by running 

the MakeUtilitiesDisk1.3 program located 

in the WIE3_1.3_only drawer and installing 

your utilities to here_ At times you may be 

asked if you want to install a utility's documentation. 

A tick box indicates that the documentation 

is selected for inclusion, but you 

can click on the box to ignore it or simply 

click on the Skip This Part button. 

The utility installer programs can be found 

in the appropriate program drawer in the 

WB 2&3_0nly drawer.

stunning graphical images, whether 

20 or 3D, you will know what a 

f time-consuming task it is drawing natural 

y o ulooking r images such as clouds, rock, water 

f a v etc. o 

u r i t Thanks to The Soft Alternative, Amiga 

e Computmg has supplied 19 superb, photo- 

p 

s 

m 

i 

s 

a 

t 

e 

realistic images taken from a variety of subjects. 

i 

Using these images with your favourite 

graphic applications, you can breath new life 

into your designs, creating realistic maws in 

half the lime, 

c 

e 

r 

The textures have been compressed in 

a Jpeg format so that they can fit onto our 

t i CoverDisk. Therefore you will need a 

n g suitable Jpeg viewer to view them. 

As they are in 24-bit format, non AGA 

owners will need to have a 24-bit card to 

view them. However, we have also supplied 

a superb program called HAMLabPlus on 

CoverDisk 2 which you can use to view the 

images and change them into a format your 

applications can load, 

Just follow the instruction given for 

HAMLabPlus to see how you can use your 

textures. 

We have supplied a variety of images 

encompassing natural elements, as we 

believe these are the most difficult to emulate. 

These include clouds, water, rock, 

sand, space and landscapes. 

The textures are primarily of use to those 

interested in 3D rendering, but they work just 

as well as backdrops or brushes in Deluxe 

Paint, Brilliance, Personal Paint and other 

20 applications. 

So that we could fit so many of these textures 

on the disk, they have been cornpressed 

with a greater ratio than that of the 

original images. So, if you decide to upgrade 

to the full package, you can expect to 

receive images of a higher quality than the 

ones supplied here. 

The image bank 

This box demonstrates 

all the images supplied 

on our CoverDisk. If you 

cannot view the images 

on your Amiga, choose 

the ones you wish to use 

from here and then load 

them into HAMIabPlus to 

be converted. This will 

save you having to load 

each one in order to see 

what they look like.

COVERDISK 

We apologise for the problems readers have been having with the Scroller2 

program, but unfortunately duplication caused an error whereby the program 

would not work with the addition of Fast RAM, 

Fortunately, we now have a bug fix which you will find on Covertlisk 2 

entitled Scroller2Fix, Run this program and when told to Insert volume 

insert your Scroller2 disk. 

After a short while of disk swapping, the process will finish and you will 

be able to use your Scroller2 disk without the need to remove your Fast 

RAM. 

If you have a second drive you can insert your Scroller2 disk into OF1: 

and run the Scroller2Fix program from your CoverDisk in DR:. Apologies 

for any inconvenience caused. 

We would like to make it clear that the original Scroller2 program, as 

offered in the CoverDisk Upgrade advert, is totally compatible with Fast 

RAM expansions and we will be running our Scroller2 tutorial next

HAIALabPlus has been included so that you 

can load, view and change the file format of 

the stunning 3D textures from the Soft 

Alternative which are free on CoverDisk 1. 

This means that you will be able to use 

them in your own programs such as Deluxe 

Paint, Imagine. ADPro and many other 

graphic applications. 

The textures are supplied in Jpeg formal 

as this format has extremely good compression 

ratios, while not sacrificing the original 

quality too much, 

As graphic applications do not support 

Jpeg we will need to use HAMLabPlus to 

change the picture format to something that 

can be used. 

When you first load HAMLabPlus you will 

be presented with the copyright information. 

Click on the close window gadget to load 

the program.

If you have ever wanted to attach sound effects to 

certain keyboard events you need Noisome. 

Noisome effectively allows you to lock sound 

samples to certain actions performed on the input 

devices of your Amiga - the keyboard, mouse and 

disk drives. 

As well as this it also allows you to decide 

exactly how your sound samples are played by 

using a totally intuition interface made up of clearly 

labelled buttons and gadgets 

When you first load Noisome a system requester 

will appear telling you that the file S:Noisomeprels

but watch their size 

register if you want the fully working version. 

To actually view the file click on the 

Display button. You can change the screenmode 

in which the file is displayed and 

saved by clicking on the Change Output 

Mode and selecting a suitable resolution. 

The Bit Planes 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 refer to 2 

colours, 4 colours. 8 colours, 16 colours 

and 32 colours respectively. You can also 

change the type of dithering you require tot- 

colours that are not palette supported. 

Once you are happy with the screen 

mode ol your texture you can save it out as 

an IFF using the Save button. It you want 

the image saved in 24 bit IFF ILBM or other 

formats, click on the Export button. HAM 

mode pictures will be very large so watch 

your RAM. You can then select the directory 

where you would like to save your 

decompressed files so that you can use 

them in your tavounte graphics application. 

Probably the most effective option is the disk 

Inserted and disk removed. When a disk is inserted 

or removed from the drive a sample of your choice 

will be played. So how do you attach a sample to 

an option? 

Let's imagine that you wanted to attach a sample 

called Spring to the disk removed option. Firstly, 

select the disk removed option so that it is selected 

and then click on the Browse button to the right of 

the File gadget. 

In the tile requester select your Spnng sample 

and then click on Play to the right of the Sound 

gadget. You should hear the sample play. 

At this point you can effect how the sample plays 

by clicking the Filter on and off, changing the volume 

and clicking on the Channel button to specify 

the channel output. 

Once you are happy with your setting you can 

then save them as the S:Noisome.prets which 

failed to load earlier. From the Preferences menu 

select Save. 

This will save your current setting to 

S:Noisome.prels so that they can be loaded every 

time the program is run. If you now click on the 

Enable button at the bottom of the main interface 

your selections will be activated. 

Click on Hide to remove the interlace and now, 

whenever you eject a disk you should hear your 

sample playing.

s you can see, the vast majority at 

my work is 3D with occasional 

adventures into two dimensions for 

the odd info screen or multimedia job. 

Even during these brief excursions into 

2D.1 have always done my best to avoid 

freehand elements, due to what's best 

described as total ineptitude. In fact, even 

with my best efforts, stick men invariably end 

up unrecognisable. 

I'm mentioning this to illustrate the fact 

that a lack of physical skills should by no 

means be seen as a stumbling block when it 

comes to computer an. 

Obviously this won't inspire confidence for 

those not consumed with a passion for 3D. 

However, even in two dimensions there's still 

huge scope for what is known as derived art. 

In other words importing, manipulating 

and oompositing real-world imagery to form 

a sometimes surreal mixture of photography, 

freehand, ray traced and digitised art. 

So, lb you have the imagination and some 

existing skills in other areas - such as photography 

and videography - you could easily 

combine them with your on-screen talents to 

enhance an existing business or open up 

new opportunities. 

OK, if ifs so easy why isn't everybody 

doing it. After all, it you don't need any physical 

skill it must be a doddle right? Alas no, as 

with every swing there follows the ubiquitous 

roundabout. 

Although the Amiga can rescue any 

would-be artist from the limitations of the 

Hash the mental demands remain the same, 

and in tact in many cases the creative pressure 

is even higher than those endured by a 

traditional artist. 

The reason being that every computer 

... 

artist the world over starts out with r , . 3

results. Your job 

, 

is to develop a

style - something 

• 

which to many 

. 

freehand artists 

comes naturally. 

As computer art 

is primarily a mental discipline you can survive 

with the hand/eye co-ordination of a 

house brick, but if you don't have the eye 

and inspiration you're quite literally dead in 

the water 

. Now before the mail bag explores with the 

vented spleens of a thousand outraged art 

school graduates, it's worth stressing that I 

certainly don't consider myself an artist in the 

classical sense. 

COMMISSIONS 

What I. and many others do, is commercial 

art, there's a very big difference. I work 

on commissions and therefore don't 

have to wait for inspiration to strike. 

All that's required is to turn a concept 

into reality - a process which 

can still be pretty painful 

While we're on the lofty plain 

of art and inspiration, it's perhaps 

worth stressing that 

artistic pretensions rarely 

have a place in commercial 

art. If, while negotiating 

a job, you come 

across as the I am

there's a strong 

chance your

be shod lived. However, that doesn't mean 

you should take what you're given and be 

glad of rt. In many cases the people commissioning 

the work will be blissfully unaware of 

the potential and perhaps more importantly 

the limitations of your particular field. 

For example, jaws often drop at 

the sight of relatively

objects resplendent in a sea of reflection. 

However, when you point to the Christmas 

tree in the comer - complete with a million 

individually modelled pine needles - the 

response will almost always be; "oh that yes 

it's OK I suppose... 

- The bottom line is to get involved in the 

design stage as soon as possible. As a 

result you can guide the client in the best 

direction for both parties. 

Another point worth mentioning is not to 

let the software take over the show, All too 

often you see beautiful images wined by the 

latest addition to the software. 

No matter whether its lens flare, motion 

blur, depth of field or any one of the hundreds 

of image processing options available 

via programs such as ADPro or ImageFX, 

always keep your goal clearly defined. 

A classic example of overkill at its best is 

the Christmas card image in this very article. 

Although this doesn't suffer from new-feature-itis 

it does illustrate a very easy mistake 

to make. 

A slightly more spatial version was commissioned 

for use on the front cover of an ST 

magazine. When the final image appeared on 

all it's texture-mapped glory I must admit I 

was fairly pleased - I'd even remembered to 

leave space for the CoverDisks great 

However, when the cover words, flashes 

and masthead were added the vast majority 

of its appeal was lost. Once all the other 


OCTOBER 1994 

The big pitch 

OK. its time to bile the bullet and have a 

bash, but how do you gel your first job. 

Well first you need a portfolio and a place 

to send it. Perhaps the best way to achieve 

this is to do a couple of free/low cost jobs in 

exchange for a reference. 

Assuming you're now armed with the 

necessary, you can start sending expensive 

video tapes or prints through the post 

to likely employers. However, beforehand 

it's worth doing a fax/mail out with a brief 

list of what you offer plus your references 

and perhaps an example or two. 

Another excellent way of drumming up 

business is to blag your way into shows - 

preferably trade. That way you've got your 

target audience all in one place and better 

still they're all vying for a lead on the opposition. 

When approaching business types it's 

useless to walk up brandishing an Amiga 

floppy. You'll need either a PC or Mac disk 

with the images or animation in a form that 

they can slap in their machine and look at 

immediately. 

In most cases Jpeg will be acceptable, 

although it might be worth carrying a few 

Pcx, Pict or GIF examples just in case. 

When it comes to animation. obviously a 

video tape is the ideal medium. 

However, in some cases animation on 

disk may be required. As a result it's worth 

learning something about both PC and Mac 

animation formats such as File and 

Quicklime. 

elements arrived it was simply too cluttered - 

and the impact I was being paid for went out 

the window... 

This is a key point of almost all commercial 

art work - you're being paid to make an 

impact, not to impress your peers. Invariably 

you're selling something in one way or 

another and it's your job to make the client's 

product leap out from the rest. As a result, 

As you've probably gathered, the vast 

majority of my work revolves around still 

images. usually for covers or illustrations 

Within articles. 

The reason being that they are the 

most cost-effective method of freelancing 

on a part-time basis. Obviously, with a 

full time job it's usually impossible to zip 

off across the country with a machine 

packed with thousands of frames of animation 

- all of which need hands-on 

attention during transfer to the client. 

Thanks to modems, high density floppies 

and high compression formats such 

as Jpeg, it's usually quite straightforward 

to transfer even the largest individual 

Files. 

When it comes to file size, I rarely go 

illustration tot 

articles can also be 

a nke little earner 

adding intricate detail and clever technicalities 

that only a tiny handful of enthusiasts 

will appreciate isn't always good business. 

At worst they'll confuse the image, and at 

best waste your valuable time. 

Obviously with the huge diversity of 

Amiga hardware and software, listing the lot 

is out of the question. As a result we'll concentrate 

on the elements which you'll need 

to do business, rather than those which will 

actually generate the end results. 

Perhaps the most important of all has to 

be a fax modem. Thanks to the lax element 

you're provided with the essential ability to 

both send and receive ideas and proofs of 

work in progress. 

It also overcomes two of the major stumbling 

blocks when attempting to incorporate 

Amiga graphics into a business wortd domi• 

nated by the PC and Macintosh, 

Firstly, the modem element can completely 

side-step the problem of transportation. 

All too often your latest creation will be just 

below 1024 x 1024 with the vast majority 

being 1500 x 1500 or above. At this resolution 

even American A4 magazines like 

Amiga Computing can still reproduce my 

work al an expectable resolution. 

Thanks to Jpeg. even your largest creations 

will fit on a high density PC floppy 

using the best possible compression ratio, 

However, there is a word of warning 

concerning Jpeg. 

Although it is often a life-saver it does 

have potential dangers. With the pressures 

on storage inherent with 24-bit art, 

It's often tempting to work with Jpeg 

images as your standard format. 

However, even when using minimum 

compression the Jpeg format will introduce 

unwanted artefacts into the image

Pr-production 

Before starting or even agreeing to a lob, give yourself some time to think things through. Its all too easy to agree 

straight off and then dive straight in, only to discover half-way through you've gone about it completely the wrong way. 

, Once you have a good idea of how to progress, sketch it out in rough and fax it through to the client for confirmation. 

If everyone's happy - and only then - it's time to proceed. 

If the job revolves around some specific object, make sure you get hold of some photography of the exact item in 

question. Better still try to get hold of the item itself! Unbelievable as it may seem, I'll guarantee you'll get even simple 

objects hornbly wrong if you rely on memory alone. And if someone is paying hard cash they'll quite rightly expect 

perfection. 

In fact this raises a key point for any freelancer, II you're not a perfectionist by nature you won't last very long, "That 

will do" simply doesn't come in to it. As they say, you're only as good as your last job - and if your livelihood depends 

on it, it better be good. 

50k too big to fit on a PC floppy But thanks 

to the infinite transfer potential of a modem it 

wouldn't matter if the file was 5Mb to big. 

The only limitation is of course the impact 

on your phone bill - assuming you can't convince 

the client to dial into your system that 

is, 

Secondly, thanks to the formal conversion 

options offered by the Amiga's huge arsenal 

of image processing packages, quite literally 

any file type can be delivered direct - again 

regardless of file size 

Obviously when it comes to mass file 

transfer a modem becomes less attractive, 

however there are alternatives - see animabon 

box out for more info. 

ON-LINE 

As for getting on-line you can do as much 

or as little as you like. Accounts on 

CompuServe. CIX plus a Internet address 

are all very nice, however it's unlikely they'll 

be an essential. 

As long as your client has a modem - and 

the vast majority of companies do - you can 

go direct. 

Another must is a good pnnter. In an ideal 

world you'd have two. One laser for letters, 

flyers, invoices and other administration plus 

a dedicated graphics printer with which to 

display your wares at their colourful best. 

Obviously this isn't an ideal or likely situation, 

so I'm afraid it's a question of priorities 

combined with cash-flow. If you want the 

best possible colour output the Primira is the 

only serious choice. 

Thanks to a photo realistic add-on it's 

almost like producing chromalins via a repro- 

data You may well have already 

noticed this, often appearing as 

smudged area or what appear to be 

hairline cracks running through 

vignettes within the image. 

Initially these are indistinguishable 

even under microscopic magnification. 

However, if you continue to edit the 

image, repeated saving out using the 

Jpeg the situation can get dramatically 

worse. 

Soon more and more errors will 

appear and worst still, those which 

already exist can be enhanced. As a 

result, whenever possible always work 

in none compressed 24-bit format during 

editing and -then swap to Jpeg for 

the final output. 

house. But unfortunately the running cost of 

a Pnmira is high. and although excellent for 

full colour images it isn't as impressive 

when it comes to black and white 

output. 

If you're after a compromise of 

acceptable running costs, good 

colour proofing and quality

premise. Of course you could always opt for 

a colour laser printer - but if you can afford 

that sort of expenditure why not, sell up and 

move to the Caribbean, you obviously don't 

need the cash anyway. 

Finally, it's essential that you invest in 

some sort of 24-bit display device, Although 

Hama is great it simply doesn't match-up to 

a true 24-bit display. 

Basically the choice is yours but it's worth 

ensuring that the board and accompanying 

paint package you pick has both an alpha 

channel and some form of virtual memory. 

The alpha channel is an absolute must 

when it comes to blending elements and

touching up finished material. A classic 

example of this is the Redzone motorcycle 

image which is comprised solely of scanned 

images and screen shots all composited 

together to form the finished graphic. 

Without alpha channel it would be literally 

impossible to produce. 

As for virtual memory, this becomes 

invaluable on larger images_ If you're only 

ever likely to work in video resolutions or 

smaller it isn't a problem. However, it you 

land a commission to produce a cover 

image for a magazine, or in fact anything 

that demands very high resolution. it's a 

must. 

As you're probably aware, most 24-bit 

boards have a range of pre-set resolutions. 

It you can't scroll or select an area larger 

than the maximum touching-up, a final can 

be a nightmare and sometimes impossible. 

When it comes to animation, you'll find 

yoursell faced with a whole new collection 

of problems and pitfalls, not least of which 

is the ability to transfer the end results_ 

Obviously, if your finances allow, some- 

What gaol need, 

what theifil want 

Above all else make sure you get a very 

clear brief of what is required. In addition, 

ensure you're sent a copy of the 

agreement on paper beforehand. 

Perhaps equally important is to get a 

rough idea of how they want the end 

result to look, end make sure all the elements 

they're likely to add later are 

Included. 

In addition, keep in close contact with 

the client with regular updates on your 

progress and their requirements. No 

matter what, do not stray from the brief. 

It's all too easy to gel carried away and 

do what you think is best - remember 

the customer is always right, even when 

they're horribly wrong! 

Once the ball is rolling the most important 

commercial element is time, they'll 

be working on a deadline and you'll be 

expected to deliver as and when 

promised. 

Its no use griping about hard drive 

failures or whatever else, if you miss 

deadlines you're a liability and nothing 

more - no matter how impressive the 

end results. 

The client will also expect the job to be 

complete and ready to run as soon as it 

arrives. As a consequence it's well worth 

finding out what aspect ratio and resolution 

would be the ideal.

Actually getting paid is perhaps one of the 

tnckiest elements of freelancing. It's not 

that most companies won't pay, it's simply 

that the money is better accruing interest 

in their account than yours. As a result 

they'll try to delay payment until the last 

possible moment_ 

However, when dealing with a new 

client it's essential that you demand at 

least partial payment before starting the 

job. Usually it's wise to ask for between 

one third and half the total cost_ 

In certain cases they'll refuse using the

recorder - is the ideal solution. allowing you 

to transfer near D1 digital video direct to the 

recording system of the clients choice either 

via composite. S-VHS or component output. 

ACCESS 

However, if you don't have direct access 

to single-frame recording equipment its 

worth enquiring tithe client has access to 

such facilities. If so, you could take your 

on your desperation, either walk away or 

demand a contract beforehand and a guaranteed 

date for payment in full. 

If you are forced in to a contractual 

agreement. make sure it's clear that you're 

to be paid on completion - and not on publication. 

If you don't they may simply trash 

your hard work at the last minute and refuse 

to cough up 

Once you're familiar with a company its 

sometimes good PR to drop the partial payment 

policy and loin the unwashed masses 

in the 30-days-to-pay department. However 

if you do, keep a close eye on the wall planner 

- not to mention the bank manager. 

OK. we discussed how to get paid, but 

what still remains is how much. When negotiating

Part and parcel of being a freelancer is finding yourself twiddling your thumbs on occasions; 

As a result it's essential you try and add as many strings to your bow as possible. 

It times are hard take anything that's going, it's much better to be humble than bankrupt - 

packing shelves, occasional bar work, anything just to tide you over until the next lob cornea; 

along. 

Another good idea is to get yourself a wall planner and attempt to get the work in early and 

spread the load a little. When one job is in progress it's downtime for all the others, and if you 

don't plan properly you'll at best end up with nothing to do, or at worst miss a deadline. 

Once you're au fad with the finer points of a particular subject or software package, why not 

attempt a little freelance journalism. After all, you're selling your skills on screen, why not do 

the same in print and how two do's are always nice little earners. 

If you have incorporated photography. videography and perhaps even music into your work 

you could sell your memoirs to a whole host of magazines - even this one. 

Although much of the above has revolved around corporate work, it's also worth approaching 

local user groups, whether they be computer. video or photographic. At worst you'll pick 

up a few nickel and dime jobs to tide you over while also making a lot of what could become 

lucrative contacts.

a combination of DCTV and Clarissa offers 

an excellent and affordable alternative. 

Better still, it also works very well as a 

method of proofing your animations, either 

for your own benefit or as a demo 4)1 work in

However, having mentioned the videographic 

uses of animation it's worth stressing 

there's another market that could prove 

profitable to the animator. Thanks to the 

explosion of CD-Rom there's also a 

huge market for intros and other graphic 

interludes. 

In addition, there's a growing market for

GRAPHICS 

ablo is designed to unite the two 

ends of the spectrum by bringing 

video capabilities to the Picasso II 

RIG graphics card. The Picasso II has a 16 

pin expansion plug near the back plate of the 

board and it is to here that Pablo connects. 

Once you have removed the standard 

back plate from the Picasso and replaced it 

with the one in the Pablo box that has two 

extra holes for the Composite and Y/C outputs, 

it is a simple matter to screw Pablo to 

the Picasso board using the supplied mounts 

and screws, 

Pablo certainly comes well-equipped with 

connections to the outside world. In addition 

to the standard RCA jack cable for composite 

signals and Y/C cable, there are adaptors for 

BNC and SCART connections. 

There are also live disks containing updated 

system software for Picasso allowing for 

the new video connection, and a copy of the 

excellent MainActor animabon software along 

with some example animations. 

The software installation uses 

Commodore's Installer and is painless, but 

there are two problems with it. 

Firstly. it doesn't check what revision of the 

system software you are currently using, 

overwriting the newer versions I had downloaded 

the previous evening. 

Also, while installing MainActor there are 

points when it wants the next disk but it 

doesn't tell you what it wants, merely puts up 

a "Proceed/Abort Install" message leaving 

you guessing what it is waiting for, 

Informed Picasso users will no doubt be 

aware of the PicassoMode software available 

for Picasso. It allows the customisation of 

screenmodes to the user's desires, 

To use it, rather than having the standard 

38kHz or 57kHz tooltype. you put CUSTOM 

in the village.library icon. This then makes 

Picasso look for a file in the directory 

DEVS:Village corresponding to settings you 

have made in PicassoMode. Pablo comes 

or 

Pablo, Picasso 

and their ally. 

Main Actor 

produce some 

effective 

results 


OCTOBER 1994 

In order for Pablo to create a signal that can be viewed on a television screen or recorded 

to videotape, it has to be at the correct horizontal scan rate and vertical refresh rate, 

For a PAL signal, these settings have to be around 15kHz and 50Hz respectively. 

Unlike Opalvision, however, Pablo's output cannot be genlocked unless you have a TBC 

or Time-Base Corrector. 

This is because Pablo's output doesn't really count as "computer video out" but as a 

separate video signal, just like that from a video camera or recorder, and it thus-needs to 

have the stabilising influence of a TBC to make sure it syncs with other video equipment. 

In the past there has always been a gap between graphics cards intended for video 

work and ones to aid productivity. Video cards worked only with graphics programs written 

especially to take advantage of their 24-bit abilities, but they were about as much 

use to Workbench-based programs as a bicycle is to a fish, 

On the other hand, the productivity cards, or RIG cards as people like to call them, 

only worked at high scan rates unsuitable for video work.

And as this is the case. I can't recommerel 

Then all non-Amiga resolutions, like 1024 x Pablo for video professionals at the momert

640 x 512 are sent out of Pablo's video outputs. 

This brings up a serious failing in Pablo. Immediately corrected, I don't see VillaTronic seling very many Pablo boards.

One more i thing. Once I had connected up my Pablo and gone back to using my monitor. 

'With Pablo's output hooked up to my S-VHS video deck. I noticed that normal Amiga 

screens were of the ususal brightness on my NEC 4FG. 

However, before I had connected Pablo my Picasso screens were of the same brightmess. 

Now they were a lot darker and I spent a while fiddling with my brightness control. 

wondering it Pablo was worth all this hassle considering it didn't even output to the resolutions 

I desired. 

Then, turning in desperation to the manual, I discovered that there were three lumpers 

te scriphon of the installation process made no mention of them, I had paid them no twirler 

n attention. Well, referring to the last-but-one page in the manual I ascertained that removing 

tthese 

three jumpers would result in a much brighter image through Picasso, but it warned 

hme 

to have both the Pablo and Picasso outputs active to prevent overloading. 

e Since I always intended to have both WC and monitor output, I would have set these 

Pjumpers 

accordingly at the time of installation had I but known,

any time, and if you don have enough ram 

to hold an animation in memory. MainActor 

does a very respectable lob of playing it 

back directly from your hard disk. 

The manual states that the version of 

MainActor that comes with Pablo is the full 

version. but you still get the annoying 

requesters saying "Pay the tee"' until you 

return your registration card. and Village

This is a good idea in principle but I recommend 

that animators gel their Pablos 

tspecifically 

for Picasso . owners in the shape 

of h the mundanely-named 'Picasso" format, 

Animations ! 

e 

in this format can be 24-bit. 16-bit 

on 

m 

6-bit, with MainActor automatically dither- 

w 

ing 24-bit frames to 16-bit if desired. 

File sizes aren't overlarge considering the 

h 

amount of data that must be contained in 

each 

e 

frame for full 24-bit animation, and each 

frame 

n 

can have a different timecode. letting 

you I set pauses within an animation without 

whaving 

to increase the framecount 

long before they need to do any work, as it 

seems to take Village Tronic an absolute 

age to send out the keyfile in question 

(well in excess of the normal 28 days for 

delivery in at least one circumstance I am 

aware of). 

If you realty can't wait or you want a full 

copy of MainActor right now and will settle 

for a black border around your animations, 

then go right ahead and buy one, you won't 

be disappointed in the quality of the video 

a MainActor also has the ability to add sound output.

GRAPHICS 

he army of Amiga users who dabble 

in 3D, be rt as a hobby or a way 

to pay the bills, have always known 

that getting just the right texture can be the 

difference between a decent image and a 

good one 

They've also known the frustration of rendering 

for hours just to try out a small 

change, a process which can test any users 

sanity. 

With Apex Sotlware's Forge. a dedicated 

texture previewer and visualiser, all that is set 

to change. Forge is bundled with the 

Essence II procedural textures for Imagine 

3D, and the image maps it produces can be 

used with any package. 

At heart it is a simple program with a 

down-to-earth workaday 'ob. but in productivity 

terms Forge is about the best thing since 

the maths co-processor. 

Opening on a clean, no nonsense interface, 

Forge offers a quarter screen preview 

window of the textures being worked on, a 

variety of controls for lighting and shading 

preferences, and a lull set of sliders to control 

texture attributes. 

The preview window can be set to display 

one side of a cube (front, side, or lop), or one 

of three views of a sphere so that the user 

can form a better idea of how the finished 

item will appear. 

In addition, one can also tell Forge to display 

and render a spherical map, cylindrical 

map, or a planar repeating map. In other 

words, the program can automatically calculate 

the way an image is stretched when 

wrapped around a sphere or cylinder, and will 

compensate so that when the map is rendered 

it fits snugly around its parent object. 

The repeating maps, designed to tile without 

the seams showing. are less useful, and 

the program sometimes produces results 

which don't tile well at all. 

As Essence textures are what is known as 

- 

pthan 

barnaps to create images), Forge has to 

ruse 

an aspect ratio of at least 2:1. sometimes 

omore, 

to create a map that will tile properly, 

c 

and at these ratios some of the textures 

ebegin 

to look a bit stretched. 

It is also easy to produce an image which 

d 

tiles seamlessly in one direction but not 

u 

another — something I found with the default 

r 

flagstones texture. 

a 

A few minutes of fiddling can usually sort 

l 

the tiling problem out though, and because 

- using an image map rather than a procedural 

( texture saves a lot of rendering time, perse- 

tverance 

is well rewarded.

but the program can be slowed almost to a 

haft by the maths involved in the textures, let 

alone any complicated objects in the scene. 

If you have enough memory (4Mb RAM 

should be considered a minimum), it is possible 

to use Forge to create 24-bit image maps 

and use them rather than the original texture. 

In this way, the Essence textures can be 

used, in bilmap form at least, with any package 

and at a much improved speed. 

Unfortunately, Forge really only works with 

produce everything from rain to spaceship hulls and gas 

planets. In use they can be very slow at times, parliculady 

those which make heavy use of bump mapping. but 

the results can be stunning, and no Imagine image need 

ever look the same again once you have a copy of 

Essence. 

Forge makes the perfect partner to Essence in that 

users now have the opportunity to use textures within 

Imagine or to quickly render a bitmap and use that 

instead. This results in a superb coupling of speed and 

flexibility.

1th 

the two volumes of Essence II textures supplied 

with the package. It will recognise 

Imagine 3.0 textures and attempt to load 

them, but the rendered results are rather 

grotty to say the least. 

Essence II contains enough textures that 

this isn't a big blow, but had the program the 

ability to load all Imagine textures it would 

have been more useful. 

All this talk of rendering and creating 

image maps is great if you own a package 

other than Imagine and you're dying to get 

your hands on those Essence textures, but 

Imagine users themselves will probably be 

as interested in Forge's preview facility. 

The quarter screen preview window displays 

a dithered 16 colour hi-res interlace 

image (256 colors are supported for users of 

AGA, Picasso. OpalVision, or EGS displays) 

which is updated in real time as the user 

messes around with texture settings, and this 

is invaluable. 

Hall a dozen passes are made before the 

window completely updates, with more detail

changes, such as changing the size of the 

flagstones in our earlier example, the first 

couple of passes will show enough detail that 

the user can more Or less choose the correct 

setting in real time. 

As this method replaces the traditional 

change one tiny value then wait three min• 

utes for a quick render, Forge could justify its 

asking price (to Imagine users) on this score 

alone. 

FEATURES 

Previews are aided by a number of features 

which, though unglamorous, are very 

useful. The preview window itself is controlled 

either by its re-sizing gadget or by the low of 

buttons found below rt. 

Of these, there are two to double or halve 

the size of the window, ReSpect to force the 

window to adopt the same aspect ratio as the 

finished image, MaxSpect to show the whole 

Image in its largest size (dependant on 

nis son of texture would take an ago to 

lender in lmagine. but Forge wilt preview

aspect ratio), -and MaxSize to boost the window 

to its biggest possible size_ 

Below these buttons, a box shows the size 

of the current preview window compared to 

the whale image, and users can drag this box 

to any pan of the image. 

In addition, there are slider controls for 

zooming in and altenng light intensities, and 

as light direction can be set from the dropdown 

menus it should be possible to accurately 

preview a texture in almost any 

conditions. 

Animation previews can also be created 

and the final animation rendered from within 

Forge, thanks to a couple of clever teatures, 

Setting start and end frames is as easy as 

clicking on the buttons in the middle of the 

Forge screen, and changes can be made 

either to both at once or just one of them. 

Creating a raindrops animation using the 

Essence II raindrops texture is then a simple 

matter of loading the texture, setting its builtin-time 

variable to one second on the last 

frame, then rendering 25 frames in 

sequence. 

The preview itself comes in the form of a 

storyboard view, which can force the normal 

window to show up to 25 shrunken images at 

once. When this view is selected, a small preview 

box appears below the window, and 

clicking in it starts the animation, 

Nothing could be simpler, and though it 

can be tricky to see arty changes in the tiny 

anim box, this is still many times better than

Jargon buyter 

GRAPHICS 

texture - a generic term for any process or image applied to a 

surface with the intention of altering its appearance. 

procedural texture - a texture fin fact a small program) which 

has a number of built in variables the user can set to achieve 

limitless variety in the finished appearance. 

Procedural textures produce very clean 3D effects, but 

because of the maths involved they can be very slow to render. 

Their prime advantages are memory efficiency and flexibility. 

Image map - a texture lormed by taking an existing image and 

••mapping - it onto the target object. Image maps render very 

quickly. but are fairly inflexible and use precious memory. 

Forge can be used to create image maps from any Essence II 

procedural texture, thus speeding up rendering while retaining a 

degree of flexibility, 

tiling - the practice of taking a small image map and tiling or 

repeating it across a large surface This process saves memory 

because the image map is kept as small as possible, but is only 

suitable for images which follow a pattern of sorts. 

spherical reap - a map designed specifically to wrap around a 

sphere, thus avoiding the usual squashing effect around the 

poles. A good example of this would be the strangely shaped 

planet Earth maps often found in atlases. Forge can automatically 

take care of pole squashing when creating spherical maps. 


OCTOBER 1994 

attempting the same job in Imagine. 

Forge will make a good guess at the time 

each frame is going to take to render, so if 

you are generating a series of large images 

for use as a sequential image map, the program 

will even tell you when it would be a 

good idea to nip off for a cuppa_ Isn't that 

nice? 

Without a doubt, Forge is well worth buying 

and virtually unmissable for Imagine owners. 

The speed and ease with which one can 

experiment not only boosts productivity but 

encourages whacky combinations of textures 

(up to nine can be used at once) and prods 

the user on towards creating now looks. 

laghtwave and Real 3D owners won't have 

quite as much use for Forge, but even these 

users would be crazy not to give it a quick 

lest run.

REVIEW 

right for once. 

4 3 ommodore A CD-ROM seemed drive that to have 1200 got ownit 

ers could slip in to their Amigas and run 

0032 software and applications. Then, the 

immediate outburst of enthusiasm began to 

give way to nagging doubts and, worse 

still, negative comments from the head of 

Commodore UK, David Pleasance. 

While the CD1200 drive boasts the same 

planar chip that can be found inside the 

CO32, there was no option to install MPeg 

Secondly, the trapdoor connector on the 

1200 is used to house Commodore's CD- 

ROM instead of the PCMCIA port, which 

means that no matter how hard you try, 

there's no room in the future for upgrades 

via the use of memory expansions and 

accelerator cards. 

The eagerness for the golden child of 

peripherals has subdued somewhat with 

the list of cons. Enter the independent 

developers — this month sees the release 

of the Zappo CD-ROM drive. 

Available well before the official

an extremely attractive chance ot hammering 

the official version into the ground. Is 

the Akiko chip important enough to make 

1200 owner's itchy fingers wait any longer? 

The Zappo CD-ROM drive seems to 

have everything going tor it. Once brought 

out of its box displaying a relatively eyepleasing 

design, making you feel like your 

money has been well spent. it's immediately 

noticeable, scanning the albeit brief 

Instructions, that the drive plugs straight 

into the PCMCIA port. This means that the 

trapdoor connector is free to do with what 

you will. 

The drive itself is a double-speed 

Mitsumi FX001D that offers a transfer rate 

of nearly 300K, making it an equal match to 

the Sony drives found inside the CD32 and 

CD1200. Instead of the toilet seat pull-up 

lids of the latter, the Zappo has a front 

loading, retractable tray. 

The hardware recognises the IS09660 

and was able to read a Mac CD, where as 

a standard PC drive couldn't. Impressive 

indeed.

Also provided as part of the software are two handy 

utilities to acid extra value for money to the package. 

The Photo CD displayer allows the use of Kodak pictures 

that can be downloaded into the Amiga and 

then saved out in to the hard drive or on to floppy. 

The audio player is very similar to the CO32's. 

Slap in a disk and then select which track you want 

to play. The usual array of shuffle. pre-program and 

other features are present to provide an all-round 

and highly useful piece of software. The only real 

downside is that the player can be a little unresponsive 

at times, but it's nothing to hinder a potential 

purchase decision. 

Another handy option, due to the way in which the

Amiga audio signals and the 16-bit CD sound being 

fed via two phono leads (not provided) In to the 

Zappo drive. 

Take one of them away and, with some CD games, 

you'll end up with only half the sound effects — 

Chaos Engine plays the intro sound directly off the 

CD but the games sound effects from the Amiga 

itself.

PURPOSE 

The main purpose of the drive, othe 

than the playing of audio CD's and taking g 

look at Photo CD's, is to play CD32 titles. 

Using a software emulation utility insteat 

of an actual planar chip. a maprity of CD3;

to playing Russian roulette with favourable

the Planar emulator works well, providing a 

high speed equivalent to that of a CO32.

Even though the likes of Microcosm use the CO32's Melo chip extensively, the software 

emulator accompanying the Zappo CD drive gives the player the full, unhindered 

game. Likewise, Ultimate Body Blows from the CD32 version with the allimportant 

extra ioypad buttons can be played via your Al 200. 

For reasons beyond the bounds of this particualr individuals understanding, both 

Sabre Team and Impossible Mission 2025 are non-starters. Booting up Sabre Team 

simply gives you the loading music and nothing else while IM 2025 plays the intro 

animation and proceeds to freeze up. My advice - try and check before you buy.

For hard drive owners, the installation 

of the software couldn't be more simple. 

Boot in Workbench and doubleclick 

on the disk, Press on the install 

icon and the package proceeds to 

install itself in all the relevant directories, 

including the start-up sequence. 

Once done, copy the Photo CD displayer 

and the audio CD player across 

to the desired directory and you're 

ready to roll, By following the same 

process as floppy users, keep the lefthand 

mouse button pressed down and 

the CO Boot program will appear, 

awaiting your command. 

tage that the Zappo hardware has over 

Commodore's is the use of the PCMCIA 

slot, but who's to say that on the release 

of the official drive, some enterprising 

independent won't have developed a 

handy expansion device that allows both

It seems to me that most investigations 

of computer misuse revolve round 

pornography. Well. I have come across 

a disc that might change that. I haven't 

tested any of the things that are men- 

tioned within this disc - how to create a bomb and how 

to make your own LSD - but the tact that this sort of 

information is available to the younger members of the 

computing fraternity is a concerning and worrying 

thought. 

As to what should be done, I will leave that up to you, 

but I do urge you to inform other magazines of the availability 

ol this information and to see what can be done. 

S Madetey, Cheshire 

Unfortunately. while there is a huge problem with 

Elven the run around 

It takes me a long time to get mad about 

things, but as I write this letter I am well 

mad! 

Recently I decided to sell my existing system 

and upgrade, and after a great deal of 

thought went for an A4000. 

The shop ordered it and phoned to say it 

had been delivered, so off I went to pick up 

my new speed machine. In the shop he set 

it up to try it out, it was great, well for five 

minutes that is until it died. 

So off it went and a new one arrived in 

two days, and it worked line. I took it home 

and for one whole week fine, but then it also 

died. I phoned the shop who told me they 

could get another but did not know when as 

everybody was out of stock. 

However, as it had NEXT DAY on-site 

warranty why not phone Wang. So I did and 

they phoned back to ask the problem, said 

they were out of parts and it would be a 

couple of days before they could get back to 

me. 

One week later (hvo weeks old) I phoned 

them back to see where they were, they 

said they were still waiting for the parts from 

Commodore and gave me the phone num- 

What's all this I hear about Commodore Australia 

and Commodore America having both gone bust? If 

these two companies have folded will it only be a 

measure of time before the one in the UK meets a 

similar fate? Okay, so a couple of Amiga mags 

have tried to reassure their readers that these problems 

will be sorted out in the near future, but will the 

company still be run along the same guidelines 

When (u11) it is sorted?

illegal or irresponsible material surfacing on computer 

screens across the planet, there is actually 

very little that anyone can do about it. 

The information you draw our attention to has 

already appeared on a PC CD-ROM via a magazine 

which also included pornography as well. 

As the information super highway and other 

forms of communication grow at an alarming rate, it 

will unfortunately become more and more difficult to 

monitor what is going on in the telephone lines and 

BBS' round the world. 

It may sound depressing but at present, with the 

methods of detection available, we will just have to 

put up with it while keeping a watch on any material 

that may come our way. Spot anything dodgy and 

report it to the crime unit at ELSPA on 0386 830642. 

ber When I phoned them they said they 

would phone Wang and sort it out, and then 

phone me back. 

One week later (three weeks old) I 

phoned Commodore who said they had 

phoned Wang who were out of parts and 

had not phoned me back because there 

was no point. 

Four days Later I took it back to the shop 

who said they would sort it out They 

phoned Wang. Commodore, their suppliers 

and got the same run around as I did. 

Alter one week (five weeks old) of constant 

badgering and hours on the phone

it's pretty tough talking about a silver lining

with the message that after I had spent 

E1000 on a computer, every one concerned 

did not care that it didn't work and couldn't 

give a damn. 

So now I am left with a Multisync monitor, 

extra drives, a small fortune in software, a 

whopper phone bill, lost wages from the 

time of wod< and no computer. 

I am feeling very bitter towards: Not 

Wang who cannot repair without parts from 

Commodore; not the suppliers who cannot 

supply without the machines from 

Commodore; but COMMODORE who could 

not care less about their customers once 

they have sold them a computer. 

The thing that gets me is that the Amiga 

is a great computer and it's what I want. I 

don't want a PC, MAC, ACORN or an ST. I 

wanted an Amiga but am left with no faith in 

Commodore_ 

J McKenny, Bradford 

Unfortunately this is an all too familiar 

story. It's not that the A4000 is particularly 

prone to failure, it's simply another 

example of why Commodore went under. 

In fact the story stands as a testament 

to the demise of CBM. Although the 

demand for machines has always been 

high, Commodore's inability to deliver is 

exactly why they went into liquidation, 

Basically it's a classic tale of over 

expansion and a subsequent cash-flow 

names have been involved in negotiations. but 

at present Samsung still appear to be the hot 

favourites - see this month's news for more 

details. However there's yet another twist in the 

tale, with Commodore's European management 

team also entering the arena. 

Obviously this doesn't exactly inspire confidence 

given their past record, but It must be 

stressed that in the past big decisions came 

from across the pond. 

If Commodore do buy themselves out I'm 

sure they'll be a lot more astute. Basically, my 

advice is to sit back for a few months and let 

the dust settle. The technology is still strong, 

the demand is there, all that's required is an 

Injection acumen.

disaster. This was due to dubious marketing 

- the A500+ followed almost immediately 

by the A600 and so on - all of which 

cost vast amounts of cash. 

Unfortunately when demand rocketed 

with the release of the 41200 and 44000, 

Commodore were forced back to the creditors 

for additional cash in order to menu• 

facture the machines the market was 

screaming for. 

Not surprisingly they refused, demanding 

payment of the money already borrowed. 

At the moment Commodore as we 

know it is effectively dead, caught in a classic 

example of how cash-flow can kill the 

golden goose. 

I only hope that when Commodore finally 

returns from the corporate wilderness they 

will have teamed their lesson. 

Boot-up hang up5 

Firstly my congratulations on your 

excellent magazine. Being a comparative 

newcomer to the Amiga. 

I've run into a couple of minor 

problems I hope you can help me 

with. 

I've recently installed a new 

hard drive on my A1500, and 

despite following the installation procedure 

religiously, I get a requester for 

"Volume work" each time I boot from 

cold. On warm reboot there is no problem. 

It's a minor annoyance. but I obviously need to 

update the startup-sequence in some way. 

My second problem has existed since I 

installed a GVP 040 accelerator. The machine 

hangs on the boot-up - hot or cold - after my 

company name appears. 

I've looked at the startup-sequence, but I'm 

not clever enough to see what could be the 

causing the problem I hope you can proffer a 

few words of advice. 

N Condron. MUSiC Motion. Brighton 

Well you've certainly come to the right 

I have in the last couple of months purchased an Amiga 

500+, Its the first computer I have ever owned and to date 

have mainly used il for games I have been offered a 

40MB IDE hard drive which has led me to wonder about 

the Amiga as a sequencer. 

In the past I have used dedicated Modules such as the 

Korg Ml, but now I'm wondering how good the internal 

sounds on the Amiga can be? So, I'm writing to you for 

advice. 

What I would like is a sequencer program that runs highquality 

internal sounds from an external Midi keyboard. I've 

been playing round with the OctaMed program, and 

though this software is restricting and 1MB sounds leave 

little to be desired, it got me thinking. 

If I had 40MB, could I get sounds that equal Modules 

like the Korg Ml? I need a program that has effects like 

reverb and chorus and the ability to pan internal sounds 

across the stereo field, as well as having at least 16 tracks 

with full edit. 

I buy your magazine every month and a few weeks ago 

a friend gave me the CoverDisk from an issue back in '93 

On it was Bars&Pipes which is the closest to the program 

I'm trying to find, yet I could find no way of running internal 

sounds from an external source, nor could I pan the

OCTOBER 1994 

place with the first question as we have 

our very own cold boot problem on one of 

our 43000. 

In our case the problem appears to be 

the initialisation time of the drive. The 3000 

in question runs an 040 which attempts to 

boot the machine very quickly. 

Unfortunately the hard drive in the 

machine is a fairly slow replacement with 

can only manage a 17 millisecond access 

time. As a result, when the machine boots 

the 040 boots-up before the drive is up to 

speed. it therefore asks for a boot disk to 

be installed. 

But as in your case, once warm rebooted 

the problem disappears. It might also 

be worth checking out the boot priority of 

drive in relation to any others on your systern 

- assuming you have a second hard 

drive. 

We decided long ago that it added 

character and as it never caused a 

problem il should be left alone - 

If it ain't completely broke don't 

make things any worse - an 

old computing adage. 

Messing about with your 

startup-sequence isn't a very 

likely cure as your machine 

simply isn't getting that far 

Into the boot sequence. So my 

advice would be to stick with 

the Vulcan death grip once a day 

lust like we do. 

As for your second point there is 

a solution. Firstly ensure the view command 

you use is before !Preis in the startup-sequence. 

Secondly ensure that the view command 

is running as a background task. 

Fortunately there's a few methods to 

achieve this. You can either use runback 

or Brun - both of which are small utilities 

widely available in the PD. 

However, if you can't be bothered sifting 

through the PO there is an AmigaDos alternative. 

Simply add the line run 'NIL:

Window PHP105100 

Along with a group of friends, I am 

creating a disk•based magazine 

• for graphic artists, 3D and 20. As 

we know very little about AmigaDOS we 

decided to use the Amiga Competing 

CoverDisk contents in Order to create an 

auto-booting disk. 

Another reason for using your 

CoverDisks is that they use a very useful 

Shell window al the bottom of the screen 

which we needed to include 

It is the Shell window where our problems 

arise. When this window appears it does so 

at full screen size, that is 640x256. which is 

Obviously no good at all 

I understand it is the Winsize command 

that allows you to alter the dimensions of a 

window, but for some reason it oust does not 

want to work. We are using A600s and each 

have 1Meg HAM expansions. Is there any 

reason why this isn't working? 

M. Wave!!, Bristol 

The first problem you've got is 

Workbench 2.0. The Winsize 

command was originally written 

for Workbench 1.3 and was not 

modified to be used with Workbench 2.0. 

So how do we do it? 

The trick here is to install the disk you 

In my experience, and contrary to 

the associated documentation, 

AmigaGuide is not totally compatible 

with AmigaGuide style tags. 

When I received my AmigaGuide package a 

Sample.guide was provided which shows the 

different tags and their effects. This works 

fine in Multiview but looks awful in 

AmigaGuide in which none of the tag effects 

show up. 

If you have any text formatting tags such 

as la(b) or 4 

41i) they do tend to have a damaging effect. The 

y0Wordwrap o u command also falls to work in 

sAmigaGuide h o u and text tends to flood of the 

lright d edge which you need to scroll. 

Another error occurs In Multiview when a 

r e 

word or series of words that have style tags 

m o 

have to be word wrapped. For some reason 

v e 

the information is simply split across two 

t h 

lines and whatever the letter was where the

GRAPHICS 

s far as 2D design goes, Deluxe 

Paint from Electronic Arts had, up 

until recently, held the crown, but 

with the advent of Brilliance from Digital 

Creations all that changed. Now. Brilliance 

has been upgraded and looks set to leave 

DPaint even further behind. 

Brilliance 2.0 not only features a superb 

and fully illustrated manual but also two versions 

of the software, Brilliance - which is a 

register version allowing you to paint in 2, 4, 

8, 16, 32, 64, 128 and 256 colours - and 

TrueBrilliance - the same program which is 

specially written to handle HAM screen 

modes easily and quickly. 

DeluxePaint tried to combine both these 

attributes in one package but the result was a 

program which worked tine in register mode 

but tripped and slipped in HAM. Taking a 

n the continuing battle for the ulti- 

Cloanto have returned into the fray 

with Personal Paint 6.0. beefing against the 

now ageing Deluxe Paint 4 and the crown 

holder Brilliance 2_0. 

From the outside, Personal Paint looks 

identical to its forerunner 4.0 featuring the 

now customary, and much appreciated, 

Commodore installer, making installation a 

breeze. 

And to all intents and purposes version 6.0 

looks identical when loaded. However, a 

quick flip through the menu and the differences 

become instantly recognisable_ 

Probably the most mayor additions are the 

new animation facilities. Animation has had a 

long-time association with Deluxe Paint and 

Brilliance but only now have Cloento included 

it with their paint package Unfortunately. the

step back to the manual. Digital Creations 

have provided tutorials for the beginner and a 

quickstart section for those used to DPaint. 

Also provided is a very thorough reference 

section which provides examples from almost 

all the tools available. When compared to the 

DPaint manual it is slightly less informative, 

but Brilliance is such an easy program to use 

there isn't much call for hefty explanation. 

SUPERIORITY 

Users ot the previous Brilliance package 

will already have been convinced of its superiority 

over DPaint and Personal Paint, but for 

those users still working with these packages 

a lair amount of convincing is going to be 

needed, especially as DPaint has become 

the default art package for Amiga artists. 

Unlike DPaint and Personal Paint, 

Brilliance takes a new approach to the pulldown 

menu style of option selection and 

offers a variety of panels which are stacked 

at the bottom of the screen. 

Combine these with the hotkey definitions 

which can be assigned to panels via the keypad 

and you've got a powerful and flexible 

design interface which is quick to access and 

totally programmable. 

The program offers all the tools and 

options available in DPaint and more. Digital 

Creations have definitely thought long and 

hard about Brilliance and seems to have perfected 

what so many other companies have 

failed - a paint package that superceeds 

DPaint in all respects. 

Tool wise, Brilliance is literally overflowing 

with familiar, and some not-so-familiar, 

drawing methods that make image creation a 

animation is severely lacking in flexibility and 

design. A very useful storyboard window has 

been added, allowing the user total control 

over how his or her animation runs, but there 

is nothing that rivals DPaint's Move requester 

or Brilliance's tweening ability. 

Any animation techniques must be applied 

by hand. There are some very useful additions, 

like new compression ratios which can 

reduce the size of an animation dramatically 

and the ability to create animations with varying 

palettes and frame by frame timing which 

have been neglected by DPaint and 

Brilliance. 

Multi-palette animations are extremely 

uselul and can be viewed externally by using 

View V3.6 or ViewTek which are available 

from most reputable PD libraries. 

Personal Paint 6.0 also features a very 

usetul virtual memory option in which inactive 

image data can be stored for later retrieval. 

The size of the virtual memory is totally definable 

but is automatically defined by the 

Pure 

breeze. In fact. this Is certainly one 0 M3 

most attractive areas of Brilliance es as 

friendliness 

Animation, stenciling and grader', 

have also been included in Brilliance 

have been much improved over D 

Unlike DPaint, Brilliance has the atoll, 

tween brushes - that is to take a s 

Image and end image and then fill in the 

essary images in-between. 

Certainly, two of the most anno 

problems y in DPaint are the single Undo 

All the features associated with Deluxe 

Paint are availabie, and plenty more

besides.. Tha magnify is •strernely versatile 

the OPII5 

Although the image processing effects are 

many and provide °tic client results, they are 

peinfulty slow even on accelerated Amiga, 

program when there is a memory shortage. 

When a memory shortage occurs, 

Personal Paint 6.0 will 'clean up' the virtual 

memory, leaving only the most recently used 

item - the less used material being stored 

on disk. When images within the VM need to

toolbox fill and draw modes. The latter fails to 

hi or draw underneath the area occupied by 

the toolbar, when ills present. Imagine drawing 

a circle that disappears underneath the 

toolbar. When the toolbar is removed any 

image under it is erased. 

DPaint also supplies only a single undo 

Option and il the toolbar is enabled after a 

mistake. the undo facility has no effect. 

ATTRIBUTES 

Brilliance to the rescue. Not only does 

&Nance perform all drawing functions under 

the tool panels but also has a definable 

amount of undo& restricted only by availabte 

memory These attributes, and many more. 

can be edited in the Brilliance icons Tool 

Types. You can even select the default pathnames 

for pictures, animations and brushes 

etc - something severley lacking in DPaint 

Interface aside. Brilliance is also a damn 

be displayed, they are done so automatically. 

Cloanto have now added support for 

Retargetable Graphics boards such as 

Picasso. Retina. Rainbow. EGS and Talon, 

which allows users of these boards total 

access to all Personal Paint 6.0 features in 

an environment where the board is used to 

full potential. 

ADDITIONS 

As well as these new additions, Personal 

Paint 6.0 still features its plethora of image 

processing functions as well as a few new 

additions including transparency. 

As far as image processing in a 2D art 

package goes. Personal Paint 6,0 still holds 

the crown. The down side of these image 

effects is that they are painfully slow, even on 

a Al200 with 4Mb Fast RAM and an 030 

accelerator with FPU. 

Still one of the most powerful attributes of 

this program is its colour remapping ability 

which is rivalled by none other. A great 

sight faster than DPaint and Personal Paint 

and can perform some operations faster on a 

68000 than DPaint can on a 68020. 

True Brilliance. the HAM version makes 

working in HAM (Hold And Modify) a pleasure, 

something that DPaint tiled desperately 

to manage but failed so miserably. 

For Brilliance upgraders the differences 

between the previous version are mostly 

invisible. The drawing routines have been rewritten 

and are now a lot faster as a result at 

customer feedback. 

New animation formats have also been 

supported and apart from the standard 

ANIM5 format, also include Op-5, Op-8 

(Word), Op-8 (Long) and single frames. 

Most of these formats are not fully supported 

yet, but when they are Brilliance will be at 

the front of the queue as far as compatibility 

goes.

As far as users of Personal Paint 4.0 are

especially with the addition of animation. 

However. Cloanto still have to go quite a

if 

I only seems like a short while ago 

that a 2400 baud modem was a 

pretty fast thing, and you 

know, after you had one for a while you 

began to wonder how you ever managed 

without it. 

Then 4800 baud modems came out and 

you began to wonder about your concept of 

speed. These were very shortly followed 

by 9600 and 14400 baud modems. 

and in what seemed like a quarter of the 

time. 

So sure enough we find ourselves in the 

present looking down both barrels of a 

28800 baud modem. Who'd have thought 

it And not Only is it double the speed of the 

modems we are all using, but it's only 

E285.53, rather than the E600 you used to 

have to pay for a 14400 when they first 

came out. 

The pace of technology is a baffling 

thing, and it seems a bit worrying to buy 

anything like this in this day and age when 

it's becoming alarmingly apparent that 

almost everything we buy for our Amiga is 

almost out of date before we wrestle it out 

of the box. 

IDENTITY 

You'd be forgiven for mistaking the 288 

for a regular 14400 modem just by 

looking at it, as it's enclosed in the 

self-same brushed aluminium case with 

black ends. But it's a very different beast 

inside, 

What you are in fact looking at is a 28800 

baud modern (I still get a kick out of saying 

that) which runs at 28800 baud for data, 

14400 for fax (although I've yet to encounter 

a fax which runs faster than 4600 or 9600) 

and MNP modes 2 to 5 plus mode 10. 

What this means in plain English is that 

as far as data transfer is concerned, this 

thing sends stuff before you press the send 

button - it's that fast 

The MNP part relates to Miracom 

Neworking Protocol and is a form of data 

error correction and compression which 

allows for faster and more reliable operating 

speeds. 

MNP 2-4 is what is also known as LAPM 

or V42 and this is an error correction 

method, which means that checksums are 

sent and received by modem and remote 

host to ensure what is sent is complete and 

not corrupted by line noise. 

In the days before this standard we spent 

more time on-line saying "please re-send, 

line noise: and comms was leSs like an 

uoer 

filodem 

Phil Smith talfe5 a ID(lif at Me af 

the new Supra Ilfa5t modem5, t 

lurking in at a bh5tering 08,811S baud 

Information Highway and more like a tatty 

CB club. 

Then MNP 5 came along and not only 

were you error corrected but you had a 2:1 

compression going too. so everything was 

Hog, bonus 

So is it the bees nose? Well. it's a very fast piece of kit, and up to Supra's usual high standards of MINlecture. 

Obviously it's too new to speculate about ROM problems similar to those which dogged the 14400 

for so long. Only time will tell on that score, 

I did hear that ROMs in this case are actually EEPROMs, which can be re-programmed by software 

upgrade files. You do get the usual nicely printed and pretty rationally written manuals which tell you the 

technical stuff, but also point out all that you really need to know, 

So is it a bargain the size of a hippo's bum? You betcha, And it I hadn't just shelled out for a 14400 

only about 10 months ago I'd be on the blower to First Computer Centre (0532 319444) right now to 

order one. 


OCTOBER 1994

taster. MNP 10 is a new protocol which 

allows for cellular connection, and is a 

much tougher error correction formal for 

those nasty buzzy things that men in 

suits have growing out of their ears in 

trains. (Cell phones, not hairs, you big 

dummy.) 

Another exciting thing (in among all the 

other things to get happy about in this great 

new cevice) is that it can initiate and adapt 

to rate changes. 

SPEEDS 

Not impressed? Okay how about the 

fact it can change operating speeds 

mid call. Yes, it can change gear on 

the fly, and that's worth a yelp of glee if 

nothing is. 

There are copious other benefits, but 

unfortunately not much Amiga software 

exists to take advantage of them. 

For future reference (and for the benefit of 

anyone who'd like to support these features,' 

it can distinguish between fax and 

voice calls, using a process called Adaptive 

Answer. 

A nice bonus for those of us who are 

always getting our ears cleaned out by having 

a fax screech down the phone at us.

AlfaPpo Optical Pen MOHR 

Along with clogging problems, the other dilemma some 

users find is mouse control. After all, when using an art 

package. attempting to draw accurately wiih a mouse 

isn't as natural as using pencil shaped. With this in 

mind, Alfa Data have released the AlfaPen 

optical pen mouse. 

The optical pen employs a 

similar system to the standard 

optical mouse. It reads its position 

via an infra-red beam which, 

using a horizontal and vertical grid, 

converts the information into your 

screen position. Like its optical counterpart. 

the AlfaPen uses a three button 

approach when in use. Located at what 

well call the nib end, the largest of the three 

buttons acts as the left mouse button. 

Behind the largest of these buttons sit two other 

smaler buttons. The button on the nght hand side acts 

in the same capacity as the right mouse button, while 

the left button gives you that extra dimension when 

using applications that allow its use. 

AlfaPen doesn't feel too bad in the hand - it's light 

and not at all cumbersome when you use it. However, 

when you attempt to use the buttons, implementation is 

not so easy. 

The buttons are very closely grouped, and even the 

most coordinated and dextrous of you will struggle to 

use this arrangement proficiently. 

The Amiga was one of the first home computers to use 

the now commonplace means of interaction between the 

user and the computer - the mouse. 

Previously, movement had been carried out via the 

cursor keys, a system that made the relatively simple 

mouse seem light years ahead technologically. 

But, since the implementation of the mechanical 

rodent, what further progress has actually been 

made? Well, not much really, aside from cosmetic things 

like lead length, free game and novelty mice teeth 

painted on to the side of your 

handset 

Perhaps the greatest single 

step forward was the 

improvement of dpi 'dots 

per inch) speed, which governs 

how much horizontal 

and vertical information the 

Amiga can pick up per inch 

of space. 

This always costs that little 

extra, with most people using the mouse 

for standard practices feeling it an unnecessary 

luxury. Well, Gastemer's 400 rip mouse knocks all of 

that into touch. Its El5 price tag makes it just about the 

cheapest 400 dpi mouse on the marital But, as a cus- 

li I gave the All aPen the benefit of the doubt I'd say 

that its use coul be described as a little like using 

chopsticks - totally alien at first, but 

the more you use them the more 

accomplished you become. 

Unfortunately, the AllaPen suffers 

similar problems to its companion. 

Again. DPaint became the benchmark 

test, and while AlfaPen 

feels more natural to draw with, 

the arcs drawn had no particular 

accuracy and felt jerky. 

AllaPen also suffered when moved 

around the mat too suddenly. Despite its 300 dpi. 

it struggled to locate itself 

Also, when you're using the AffaPen you have a tendency 

to angle the pen back. like it was a real pen. 

Unfortunately ifs not, and the net result is a loss of contact 

to the mat. 

Ultimately, however much you might feel you 

need an optical pen, when you get one up and 

running you might just feel that you've wasted your 

money.

tomer, what is the price you pay for this economy? 

Simple, none. Gasteinef s 400 Odes across the mat 

with a grace that leaves other rodents and cavys 

floundering in the straw. 

It tracks across the screen with such ease that you 

hardly need flick your wrtst, and the space necessary to 

operate it is negligible. 

On the ergonomics front again the Gasteiner 400 dpi 

is a treat. Its small body is much sturdier than you'd 

believe its price would command, and Os in the palm of 

the hand very comfortably 

. Control is finite and the micro-switches respond 

with the slightest muscle spasm from your 

forefingers. 

A slight niggle might be that some 

users would find it too sensitive, 

but for my cash the Gasteiner 400 dpi is 

excellent tool to use alongside any 

or art package.

Ea5tpiner EMI DPI mOU5P 

Although the Commodore mouse has come 

on leaps and bounds thanks to the A600. 

Al200 and A4000, there's still plenty of room 

for improvement. 

This is more than apparent if you plan to 

use your mouse in conjunction with an art 

package for anything in the artistic vein, 

Many at the mice available to the user can 

set you back anything up to the region of £20 

for something that exists mthin the 280-290 

dpi range. 

Certainly Silica's Nashka. which is a 

sturdy all rounder, and the squared oil 

Contriver mouse slot nicely into this bracket, 

With this in mind. Gasteiner launched a 

280 dpi mouse that retails at the bargain 

price of E6.99. Okay, it uses membrane 

switches as opposed to micro•switches to coordinate 

its buttons, but it does have many 

saving graces. 

For one, it's damn goad value for money - 

who could moan at this price? If anything, it 

could put you off because it's too cheap. 

Well, I assure you there's nothing to be 

frightened of. 

Gasleiners budget rodent feels extremely 

comfortable to the touch and fits the 

ergonomics of the hand very well. It feels 

very sturdy and your fingers reach the Iwo 

buttons with ease. 

The other aspect to consider with this 

mouse is its aesthetic qualities. Although it's 

a simple design it looks robust and the two 

deep grey mouse buttons offset the light grey 

of the main body very effectively. 

On the down-side, opto-mechanical 

design means the occasional cleaning of the 

bal and roller, but again, that's only a short 

and very temporary inconvenience. 

Overall, Gasteiner have produced a 

mouse that. although technologically outwitted, 

can live alongside its rodent counterparts 

when it comes to accuracy and overall 

performance.

s discussed in the first tutorial, the 

screen is the basic drawing board 

for all your visible operations within 

the workbench environment. But, instead of 

using the workbench screen, I am going to 

show you how to use your own screen by 

taking you through the steps of writing a 

basic picture displayer_ (O00000h)! 

As you are probably familiar with_ the 

Amiga is capable of displaying pictures or 

information in many different modes. Such 

modes include Lores, Hires. Interlace and 

even HAM. I can't explain all these modes 

in this article, so I will just use the two most 

commonly known modes: Lores and Hires. 

• Lores: This is the lowest display mode 

for Me Amiga to use and is the preferred 

drawing mode of most graphic artists. In 

Lores mode the Amiga can display 256 

tines from top to bottom, with each line consisting 

of 320 dots. In this mode the standard 

Amiga 500 can display a maximum of 

32 true colours, where as the Amiga 1200 

can display 256 true colours. 

• Hires: As the name suggests, this display 

mode is a higher resolution than the 

Lores mode (but not the highest resolution 

possible). In Hires mode the Amiga still only 

displays 256 lines from top to bottom, but 

each lone now consists of 640 dots from left 

to nght. 

Unfortunately, in Hires mode the Amiga 

500 can Only display a maximum of 16 true 

colours, but the Amiga 1200 can still display 

its full quote of 256 true colours. 

Let's kick off the programming by opening 

a standard screen in Lores and than 

Hires:

manner, 

That's it! Not much to opening a simple 

screen, is there! 

If you have been reading your manual, 

you would have realised that to open a simple 

Lores screen which has dimensions of 

320'256 pixels, you only need to use the 

shortened version of the 'Screen' 

command. 

This version assumes that you want 

Lores, so all you need to do is to tell it how 

many bitplanes you want (the number of bitplanes 

dictates how many colours can be 

used by using the following maths: 

2A8itplanes = Number of colours, ie 2 bitpianes 

= 1'22 = 4). The first value represents 

the screens id number.

a n d 

Well this is all fine for a Ores screen but a 

Hires screen such as the WB screen 

requires some extra thought. We need to 

use the extended form of 'Screen', so 

replace the previous 'Screen' command 

with the following: 

Sento DA40,60,256,2,S1000,14 Sccete,1,2 

If you check your manual you can see that 

the first two values after the screen id num- 

ber is the X,Y position. These values are 

relative to the top left-hand corner of the 

screen (ie. 0.0 is positioned in the top lefthand 

corner). 

The next two values are the width and 

height of the screen in pixels as explained 

above. After that follows the number of bitplanes 

and then the screenmcde value. 

This value is related to a chart in your 

Blitz User Magazine No.1 on page eight, 

which shows that a value of $8000 gives us

the 

a Hires display. After that follows the name 

of our screen and then the drawing pen 

number and background pen number which 

represent the two colours used to draw the 

screens display. 

Try experimenting by opening some 

screens of different sizes and resolutions 

with varying number of bitplanes. 

Remember: 

Amiga 500 = max 32 cols = 5 bitplanes max 

Amiga 1200 = max 256 cols = 8 bitplanes 

RiaX 

Now lets go one step further and add a picture. 

This example relies on you having a 

picture somewhere which you can use. 

Please make sure that it is either a Hires 

picture or a Loros picture only:

;Repeat forever. 

to: 

Foric 

In this example all we have done is set up a 

few variables, opened a default screen, 

repeatedly asked for a picture to show and 

then wait for the mouse button before looping 

around again. 

Notice that we use the ILBM commands 

to find out the picture size, depth and viewmode 

It you have the latest copy of Blitz 2 featured 

on Blitz User Magazine No. 6 then 

you can change the line: 

If Etilte (fS) then I de inio I S Else End 

If EvistsI filvfe the Then End Etse if 11.1013nfa 

ISvfalse then End 

This is because you have the new version 

of ILBMInto which returns True as it is a 

picture. If you haven't got the new version 

then see the subscriptions box on how to 

get it! 

All we need to do is add a few menu 

options and we'll have a good picture displayer, 

But, first a few basics about menus: 

• Each menu is split into sections, a title. 

an option and a sub-option. 

The title is as the name suggests, the 

name of a particular menu. In each menu is 

a selection of options which the user can 

choose from and some options also act as 

titles to sub-options. This is what a typical 

menu structure could look like: 

Menu T i t l e 

Option 1 - Sub-option 1 

Option 2 - Sub-option 2 

Option 3 

• Each set of titles, options and suboptions 

in Blitz 2 are assigned a unique id 

number lust like screens and windows. This 

makes the grouping of menus as easy as 

pie. 

Setting up a menu is lust like defining a 

variable in Blitz 2. There are three commands: 

MenuTitle. MenuItem and SubItem. 

Each of these allow the declaring of each 

part of a menu and gives you the power to 

group these with the unique menu id numbers, 

thus allowing you to. create several 

sets of menus for different parts of your program. 

One thing to remember about menus 

is that they need to be attached to a win-

dow because of the way the workbench 

sets them up (Sorry. that's the way it is 

But don't despair, we can set up a 

dummy window, which can't be seen by the 

user. All we do is define our menu, set up 

our screen as before but add a window 

without a title and without borders. This 

makes for an invisible window!

Try loading a few pictures into this prc 

gram. See how it loads the picture onto It 

screen when it executes the LoadScree 

command but doesn't show the palette un 

the ShowPalette command. 

Watching how the program executes is 

good way to finding out the right order 

write a series of commands to achieve pe 

fection. 

Well that's it for this month. In ne 

month's issue we'll lump into the world 

gadgets as well as looking deeper into II

MUSIC 

have access to some fantastic 

tools, including world-class 3D 

programs. single-frame controllers, directto-disk 

video boards and some of the best 

real-lime paint and animation software 

around. 

But, when your video masterpiece is finished, 

what about its soundtrack? You 

could utilise the excellent Sunrize 16-bit 

sampling card, but that comes at a professional 

price which is a bit expensive if you 

just want to enhance your 24-bit remake of 

BladeRunner with a friend's dark jungle 

MOD files, or add some sound samples 

direct from your Amiga. 

Digital Sound Track (DST), by Merlin's 

Software, is an American program which 

claims to answer the video animator's 

prayers, allowing IFF samples. 

SoundTracker, NoiseTracker and 

ProTracker MOD files to be synchronized to 

your timecode-locked SMPTE video. 

CONTROL 

DST even allows a Picture-in-Picture 

(PiP) preview video display when GVP's IV- 

24 or an OpalVisien video module is used. 

DST works with a wide range of professional 

VIRs and single frame controllers - 

most of which aren't easily available outside 

the USA so I won't list them here - though 

strangely DST can't control the popular 

Nucleus Personal SFC. 

Fortunately, support for DPS's Personal 

Animation Recorder has just been added. 

so I tested DST with a PAR card hooked up 

to the video input of an IV-24 - a system 

which alone would set you back over 

E5000. It seems you need to be pretty serious 

about your animation to be able to 

make full use of DST. 

For all its claimed power, I was surprised 

to find that DST's manual is a skinny 12page 

AS affair which doesn't mention the 

PAR at all. Instead, the manual concentrates 

on the use of single frame controllers. 

The actual PAR information is contained 

in a ReadMe file which also covers DST's 

Script Recording feature. I found the 

Scripts are written using OSTs script recording facility. which 

is easy to use but lacks the power to produce a totally satisfactory 

result. 

By selecting 'Begin Script Recording' a frame can be 

selected tram an animation and a sound tagged to it. Each 

sound has to be added in the order that it will be played, or an 

error message appears. 

When the script recording is finished you then can go into 

"record" or lest script" mode, and all the sounds will play back 

in time with the animation - at least that's the theory. 

This is where a major problem arises. There appears to be 

no synchronisation lock between the PAR's frame counter and 

DST's limecode clock, which means that scripted sounds may 

well play back in completely the wrong plaace. 

DST has a 'Change Time Delay' option to allow manual tun. 

mg to the PAR's constant playback speed but, as this requires 

frequent resets, editing the soundtrack to any degree of accuracy 

quickly becomes an exercise in total frustration. 

If you need to edit your script, to offset the unreliable synchronisation 

tor example, the only way to do it is with an exter• 

nal text editor or wordprocessor. By editing scripts you can

time 

DST provid•s one main screen, with tort sound 'slots% con. 

ReadMe more helpful than the manual. 

though I guess the PAR info will eventually 

find its way into the documentation proper. 

Installing DST is a hit and miss affair, as 

it uses its own custom installer instead of 

the standard Commodore one. While 

installing the PAR version of the software, 

it also decided to install the OpalVision 

ARexx programs because it detected the 

OpalVisionlibrary on my hard disk. 

Giving the user full control over the installation 

would be a better option to 

avoid such problems. Eventually, after 

some manual installation, I got DST 

up and running, though I can't say it 

was as straightforward as it might have 

been. 

With the hardware and software installed, 

getting it all to work seamlessly together 

build up some fairly complex soundtracks - including setting 

the number of loops over which a sample will repeat. though 

the cryptic script format is only vaguely explained in the 

ReadMe file, making editing a tough lob. 

Setting the time at which a sound plays back seems rather 

arbitrary, since the numbers in the script bear no relation to 

those displayed on the DST screen. 

I found the only practical way to insert a sound in a script 

was to begin a new script, indicate where I wanted a sound to 

play, save the script, then insert this new file into my main 

script using a text editor. 

Once I got used to this method of working I began to enjoy 

my digital dubbing, but soon found the playback sync of my 

animations knocked out of kilter by DSTs Ilaky synchronisation 

method. 

Making a small change to a script would often throw every. 

thing else out. This, plus the fact that sounds would not always 

play back on the correct channel, soon had me reaching for the 

paracetemol. 

Alas not an ideal situation, but as it stands there's no real 

alternative.

proved something of a challenge. On stallup, 

DST displayed its single control screen 

with a quarter-sized window in the lower 

left corner, ready for inserting an IV-24 PIP 

to monitor your animations. 

After relocating DST's ARexx scripts, 

configuring the IV-24 and running the IVPiP 

software, DST's PIP onioll switch eventually 

produced an NTSC-sized window 

showing the PAR's output. 

Experimentation, reference to the IV-24 

manual and some editing of the supplied 

ARexx scripts produced a better display. 

though PAL users shouldn't have to do all 

this extra work just to get a program working 

properly. 

SOUND 

Finally, I could start adding sound to my 

animations. With the PAR running I was 

able to select an animation and control it 

from the DST screen, which wasn't always 

easy as DST's control buttons are small 

and sometimes awkward to use, while the 

animation time display is tiny and flickers 

during animation playback. 

Switching the IV-24 display to video 

mode (essential when recording to tapet 

made the time counter virtually unreadable. 

If DST emulated the PAR's VCR-like control 

panel and large-digit display, this would 

be a great improvement. 

Unlike the PAR, DST will only let you 

play an animation, go to a particular trame 

(selected by time), or jog forwards or backwards 

a frame at a time - a rather unstable 

procedure which sometimes locks up the 

program for a short time it the jog button it 

used too enthusiastically. 

According to the manual, clicking or 

other pans ol the screen should force thr 

jogging to stop, but it didn't seem to won 

for me. The animation loop button alsi 

seems unreliable, sometimes causing ant!

HARDWARE 

rom day one there has been an enormous 

amount of demand for an 

expansion port that would give the 

CD32 the characteristics of an Al200. 

Paraiasion, realising this fact, were first to 

announce the development of such a unit. The 

SX-1. as it was later named, has been eagerly 

awaited ever since. 

Contrary to popular belief, the CO32 is not 

an Al200 with a CD-ROM drive attached. 

Therefore providing the CO32 with the sort of 

expansion capabilities found on the Al200 is 

not totally straight forward. 

While it would appear that the CO32's 

designers have allowed for as much communication 

as possible through the consoles 

expansion port, all the outgoing and incoming 

signals need to be translated and manipulated 

before being ol any use. to man or machine, 

This has meant that the designers of the 

SX-1 have had to develop circuitry to mimic 

that which interfaces the guts of the Amiga 

with the outside world. 

Paravision's SX-1 is a "Plug in and Go" 

expansion. Unless you are installing a hard 

drive there is no messing about with installation 

software. 

Once connected you can hook up to a suitable 

monitor, an Al200-compatible floppy 

drive, a printer, a modem or even another 

computer. In fact you can fit almost anything 

that can be attached to an Al200. 

The parallel, floppy and RGB connectors 

are standard Amiga ports and will work tine 

with the vast majority of existing Amiga peripherals 

and devices which connect 

to these interfaces 

You may also fi t 

an external IDE 

drive, but it must 

have its own 

power suppty

port is not the

You can fi t a

also squeeze a 2.5 inch ODE hard 

drive underneath the circuit board 

There is little to compare the SX•1 with, Several threeline 

serial links have been produced for the CD32 and 

these have enabled Amiga owners (and no doubt a few 

PC users) to transfer files from the 6032 onto their 


Such add-ons, while functional, are not exactly breathtakingly 

fast and offer nothing but a simple serial connection. 

Some people seem to think that the SX-1 will turn 

their CO32 into an Al200. 

This is not the case. It gives your 6032 many of the 

Al 200's charactenstics but fails to achieve the impossible, 

which is turn it into an Al200. Think of it as an additional 

model in the Amiga computer range and you

theti d 

Your first stumbling block will be the serial 

port. Rather than use the more expensive and 

hard-to-come-by 25-pin D connectors, 

Paravision have opted for the more common 

IBM AT style 9-pin D connector. 

Before you gel too concerned, the Amiga's 

1RS232 serial port only uses nine of the 25 

pins and 9 to 25-pin adapters are quite easy to 

come by. Around the outside ot the unit you 

will also find a disable switch, a hard drive 

connector, an AT keyboard socket and an 

audio input. 

DISABLING 

For the sake of compatibility with some 

CO32 software titles a disable switch has 

been added_ This disables the hard drive. hoppy 

drive, serial port and parallel port, removing 

the need to disconnect the SX-1 should you 

come across any incompatibilities. 

It is possible to connect an external IDE 

hard drive, with its own power source, to the 

hard drive connector at the rear of the 

machine. The only problem I found with this 

was that the Appendix concerning the external 

hard drive, which was supposed to detail the 

pin configurations, was missing. 

This should be resolved but if it is important 

to you then check with your supplier before 

should not be disappointed. 

Any Al200-compatible software should work fine on 

the CD32 fitted with the SX-1. I certainly could not find 

any problems on this front, despite constant attempts to 

catch it out. Even programs written in Amos worked fine. 

Amos is packed with hardware-hitting routines and short 

cuts - the fact that it worked on the CD32 would suggest 

that many other OS unfriendly programs should run_ 

The AT-101 keyboard adapter was, I felt sure, bound 

to throw a few wobblies but it happily handled all that I 

threw at it. The inclusion of this option was an incredibly 

shrewd move and Paravision should be applauded for it. 

While the serial port Is not the standard Ammo 

0E125 connector, the 9-pm IBM AT WIMP 

connector is more dim 

adeepalle 

purchasing. The CD32's Aux port will 

an A4000 keyboard, or even an A2000 

with the correct adapter, but there is one 

snag - they are expensive. 

Amiga keyboards. unless picked up s 

hand, can cost as much as £90. The Ind 

of an IBM AT-101 keyboard adapter s 

prove a real godsend. because you can 

up a suitable keyboard for as little as E25. 

IBM AT-101 keyboards are not at all 

patible with the Amiga's keyboard. but the 

1 has an inbuilt translator that makes the 

keyboard act like an Amiga one 

Not all PC keyboards are AT-101 compall 

ble. such as the XT keyboards. so you mil 

need to exercise a little caution when burl 

one. 

You may also tind that your AT-101 key 

board lacks a right ALT key. Should this Ix 

the case, there is a jumper setting on the S)0 

1 's motherboard that allows the right CTFI 

button to be used instead. 

As well as being able to mix both CD an 

Amiga audio. you will find that the SX-1 

allow you to mix a third audio stream, via th 

6-pin Mini-Din socket. 

If you are a closet Kareke nut then this lel 

ture may be of interest you. For those el 

want a bit more umph, you can remove It 

unit's cover and add a 2.5 inch IDE hard drii 

or some extra memory 

The IDE drive can be secured to the undf 

side of the circuit board and the cable 

attached to the standard 44-pin (2mm) co 

nector The single 72-pin SIMM socket 

accept either a 1, 2, 4 or 8 megabyte Slit 

module (rated at 800s or faster). 

Jumper settings allow you to configure t 

memory size accordingly but you will exp( 

ence certain limitations if you have an 

card fitted. Due to the nature of the WV a 

figuration you will only be able to use 1, 2 o

So does all this turn your CO32 into a 

usable Amiga computer? Well effectively it 

does. e To prove this I spent hours down loading 

files from CD-ROM discs onto floppies.

SUPPORT 

o I even hooked up a modem and used the 

CD32 o to log Onto a couple of boards. What 

you cannot do is add a faster processor. an 

FPU echip 

or a SCSI controller. Whether it is 

possible to provide support for these remains 

to be 1 seen, but no announcements have 

been made as yet. 

If I you are to experience any hardware 

compatibility problems with the SX-1 then 

you fwill 

probably find the cause to be power 

related. The CO32's power supply is a bit 

whimpy i in the amperage department. 

It works perfectly well with the CD32 but 

m may not like too many peripherals drawing 

from it. Much depends on how greedy your 

i hardware is, but you will find that you should

and an 3.5 inch external floppy drive (despite 

the instructions advising that you will only be 

able to use one or the other). 

The addition of an FMV card, a digitizer or 

sampler, which draw their power from the 

CD32, could be asking too much, causing the 

machine to crash. 

I actually connected art external floppy, 

along with the Vidi digitizer and the separate 

Vidi RGB splitter. Older Vidi models are notoriously 

greedy when it comes to power consumption 

(newer ones are much better) and 

this combination proved too much for the 

CD32's PSU 

Instructions are rather brief and do not 

contain any diagrams. While this may not be 

necessary for most of the features, diagrams 

do tend to break up the text making it more 

digestible. 

The placing of the RGB socket was also a 

little odd. I found that the adapter on my CBM 

1960's monitor lead sat tightly on top of the 

CD32's power plug. It did not prevent it from 

working but it was still slightly annoying. 

Actually the whole design was a little disappointing. 

A much neater solution would 

have been to have a unit that sal underneath 

the CD32, with one long row of connectors 

along the back d

Mailing with fire 

ne of the biggest dilemmas for any 

animator is how to make their creations 

believable. in many cases the 

obvious solution is to incorporate a sequence 

of stills from the real-world as part of the overall 

animation. 

As a result, things like TV screens and windows 

can come to life with your favourite soap 

and scenery. Seemingly the perfect solution. 

However, what if you need a little more than a 

simple sequence mapped onto a flat plain. 

For example how do you add explosions to 

blazing ships or flickering flames to a candle - 

without spending thousands on expensive 

pyrotechnics and studio facilities. 

The answer. The pyromania CD-ROM from 

VCE inc. Thanks to this California outfit, the 

nightmare of making a believable big bang is 

finally over. 

Although many of the more advanced Amiga 

animation systems attempt to emulate explosions 

and other pyrotechnics. they've never 

really been on a par with the real thing. 

As a result, thisnew CD-ROM will be a godsend 

for anyone looking for the kind of FX usually 

exclusive to big Hollywood productions. 

Over the last 16 years VCE, or Visual 

Concept Engineenng, has been a leading fight 

- pun intended - in the production of visual 

effects for films such as Return of the Jedi. 

Robocop, Beetlejuice, Addams Family and 

Cliffhanger. 

Fortunately they've now decided to lavish 

their wealth of experience on a new CD-ROM 

which boasts 1162 individual PICT files, all 

scanned from 35mm film stock at a resolution 

of 640 x 480 at 72 DPI. 

Not surprisingly, the aforementioned files are 

split into a variety of events including eight 

explosions, live fire wipes, five flame 

sequences and a single film burn sequence. 

Consequently. pretty much every pyrotechnic 

eventuality can be catered for by using individual 

sequences or compositing a series of 

events together. Now as the videographers will 

Fire wipe 

Although the vast majority of the CD is dedicated 

to explosions and other spectacular 

pyrotechnics, there's also a series of dedicated 

wipes that have been pre-processed 

using an alpha channel, thereby enabling 

the user to apply flaming transitions 

between static images. 

The end result is a wall or circle of flame 

which glides across the screen burning 

away the current image, leaving the 

replacement in its wake Without seeing the 

effect in action it's difficult to appreciate how 

impressive it actually is. But rest assured. 

even the most dramatic Scala transition 

looks weak in comparison 

Paul fill557 5E45 hi5 Ilmiga ablaee with the 

tliateupiq animator mu5t &me In their rfillPrtion 

tie well aware, 640 x 480 is a little short on lull 

video resolution. However, thanks to the excellent 

quality of the images, scaling up to full 

video size doesn't really present a problem. 

However, in the vast majority of cases the 

actual effect will only occupy a relatively small 

area on the screen. As a result, for many of the 

applications the files may in tact need scaling 

down - in order to accommodate system 

requirements. 

As you've probably guessed via the reference 

to the PICT file format, the actual CD is 

primarily aimed at the PC and Macintosh market. 

Thanks to the use of a standard IS09660 

CD format though, the files are equally at home 

on the Amiga as they are on the PC or Mac. 

I must admit there is one minor problem, this 

being the lack of an animated preview of the 

various sequences. 

COMPILING 

On both the Mac and PC. small anim previews 

are provided for each event. However, if 

you're willing to invest a little time compiling 

your own it isn 

- As you can see from the composite space 

t ship explosion, all the Pyromania images have 

exactly 

been shot on a black background to aid compo- 

a 

sition. It must be stressed that the images have 

not been pre-processed 

m a s 

In other words, the black areas of the screen 

s 

are 

i 

not 

v 

restricted 

e 

to colour zero. As a result it's 

p r o 

left up to the user to process the images to suit 

b 

their 

l 

particular 

e 

needs. 

m 

Basically, 

. 

some form of image processing 

is essential, with either ADPro or ImageFX 

being the obvious choice for both colour 

correct and composition of the effects into your 

animations. 

If you're serious about your animation the 

CD is an absolute must. To my knowledge 

there's no other product available that can 

match the explosive power of this impressive 

product. 

Be warned though. there's still a fair amount 

of work to do in your favourite image processor 

it you want the very best from the images on 

otter. A dream come true for serious animators.

ou're tired, hungry, weather beaten 

and ever so slightly lost. The 

tourist information office sits in a 

glow of warm sunlight as you make your 

way towards it. Entering, you are confronted 

by row upon row of pamphlets, maps 

and advertising booklets. 

A friendly smile beams at you from 

behind the counter and asks li 

lt you. cSeveral a n minutes h e llater, p you leave the 

premises with half a dozen maps, five hotel 

brochures and a clump of local attractions' 

pamphlets after grabbing blindly at the 

shelves. For some strange reason, you 

don't feel any the wiser. 

Imagine this in a foreign country and the 

already hassled individual turns in to a 

panic stricken holiday maker with two kids 

and wife waiting in the car, all on the mutinous 

verge of Sealinking it back home 

sharpish. 

In North Wales, the tourist board has 

decided to take an important step closer to 

customer satisfaction by introducing the 

country's first multimedia, computer-based 

information bureau to help visitors with 

accommodation, attractions and many other 

slices of the locale's culture. 

ATTRACTIONS 

With the simple press of a button to highlight 

the area you wish to explore, the visitor 

and locals alike are able to obtain an 

overview of a particular region's attractions 

at the lime. Photographs and the soon-tobe 

installed full-motion video aid the holidaymaker 

in choosing what they will do with 

their well-earned vacation. 

The idea was thought up by Peter 

Simunovic, a Croatian who moved to Britain 

eight years ago. While working for the 

Clwyd County Council, Peter was already 

heavily involved with Commodore machines 

having owned a Vic-20, C64 and 500. 

He saw the opportunity to use the Amiga 

as the perfect platform for the continually 

updated delivery of valuable information for 

tourists. "I would like to see Commodore 

growing out of the game situation and getting

machine has so much potential. Businesses 

don't know about the Amiga - they have 

been surprised by what the machine can 

do." 

After putting together a proposal, he 

managed to convince the County Council to 

give a development grant. The demonstrations 

began and, after impressing the 

Welsh Office, Peter says that he - 

got decision aalmost 

instantly,' 

The impressed investors awarded a full 

grant of C15,000 for the project lobe developed 

and installed in the Denbigh library 

In stepped Ramiga International, headed 

by managing director Bill Owen. to help 

bring the brainchild to life. By using an 

Amiga 40001040 combined with the 

Personal Paint Animator that captures individual 

frames in real time, the Piccolo 24-bit 

display board, an Mocig board for handling 

There are big plans for the future. Ramiga and Peter Simunovic are 

planning a visit to Orlando in America to talk to a chain of hotels 

about the possible inclusion of the system in their complexes, 

The technology would remain the same: "The concept is the 

same from tourism to large hospitals or creating an information 

system for business. Everything is the same. only the data 

changes," commented Simunovic. 

Ultimately, Peter has high hopes for Commodore's machines. 

"We want to install a CO32 in every hotel room and can deliver an 

entertainment box in one. 

"On holiday, your home is your bedroom and you have a single 

machine that plays music, video, games and information. There is 

still a long way to go though." 

And that's another article too...

full motion video, SCSI2 board and a 

Philips compact disc cutter for creating custom 

CDs, the basic tools for creating the 

interactive tourist guide were in place, 

While some of the above features were 

not implemented at the official unveiling at 

Denbigh library, the results of Ramiga's 

labour are attractive and easy to use. 

Implementing a Scala-based system and 

a hard drive with over 62 megs of information, 

the user simply has to press the 

colour-coded buttons to the side of the 

screen to choose their desired topic. 

TOPICS 

The lull rundown includes attractions, 

eating out, events, general into and highly 

useful emergency numbers. By pressing on 

"places to stay", you'll be prompted to 

select what board rating you can afford and, 

once done, be presented with a series of 

hotels in your price bracket. 

Choose one and, along with information 

on location, fees and other details, the 

actual rooms, reception and other areas 

may be viewed with accompanying text. 

At present, only two of North Wales' eight 

counties have been entered - Clwyd and 

Gwynedd - but the intention is to have a 

fully comprehensive breakdown of the 

entire country. 

While the system is 4000-based at the 

moment, the aim is to produce seven terminals 

connected to each other via modems 

for ease of updates. 

Instead of the 4000, CD32's at each point 

using the CO32x expansion unit from Index 

Information - the company responsible for 

the recent London Transport Museum's 

facelift - and a hard drive will run the whole 

system 

Coupled with FMV, the Wales Tourist 

Board can hopefully look forward to a 

rewarding pilot run.

he trouble with ARexx and the 

majority of programs which support 

it is that hardly anyone can be 

bothered to learn enough ARexx to write 

their own scripts and macros. 

Sorry, but there it is. ARexx is about as 

interesting as a bus timetable and the programmers, 

thinking they had provided an 

easy enough language for the average 

user, were forced to go away and make it 

even easier. 

Since ADPro was blessed with the 

superb ProControl and ProPage got its 

Genies, ARexx macros have gradually 

become more common, but there has never 

been an all-round macro control centre. 

Batch Factory hopes to be the answer by 

supporting as many of the best applications 

as possible. 

In a package containing 304 scripts covering 

11 applications, the macro-starved 

user will find an ARexx elastoplast for many 

common or garden ailments. 

SCRIPTS 

ADPro users can choose from 68 scripts. 

most of which can be used on single or 

multiple files, ProPage users can add to 

their already long list of Genies, and even 

good old AmigaDOS gets ten scripts ,of its 

own. 

When loaded, Batch Factory has the 

appearance of a directory manager. Two 

large windows are used to display the current 

directory and the files selected for processing. 

and only a single row of buttons 

breaks up what is an otherwise uninspiring 

screen, 

Minimalism is carried over to the menus, 

which offer only a few options and can 

leave you wondering where the meat and 

veg is located. 

Choose to select a script. however, and 

the poor impression quickly changes- A file 

requester, slower than the average snail but 

still usable, offers access to an Aladdin's 

cave of macros of all shapes and sizes. 

The most obvious use tor a program 

such as this is for work with ADPro, so 

that's where I started. 

The 68 scripts dedicated to ADPro cover

Below is a list of the packages supported by Batch Factory and 

the number of scripts supplied for each. If PageStream 3.0 is 

notable by its absence, don't worry. 

Batch Factory will support it through an update as soon as 

the DTP heavyweight appears. As PS3 has already enjoyed the 

gestation period of an elephant, we can only hope it pops out of 

SoftLogik's incubators soon.

almost as good 

Covering all the most popular operators 

such as twirl, rotate, scale, and so on, the 

macro list is comprehensive enough to 

meet most requirements. though it still cant! 

touch ProControl or Muliframe as an 

ADPro add-on, 

The bad news is that it you take a look at 

the support panel you'll notice that some 

applications are decidedly better served 

than others, 

Batch Factory's macros are heavily 

biased towards the image processors and 

Opal Paint, and while these packages are 

treated to dozens of useful scripts, the others 

can look a little sad, particularly Final 

Writer with its paltry lour and Cygnus Ed 

(CED) with only two. 

MACROS 

Of course, macros can be written and 

stored in Batch Factory's directory for use 

with any ARexx-compatible package, but in 

this case the only added attraction of Batch 

Factory is that it can process several 

scripts in sequence. 

The asking price of $59_95 is therefore a 

little less justifiable it you don't use one of 

the packages on which Batch Factory lavishes 

most of its attention. 

Again, if the thought of writing your 

own macros prompts you to wash your 

socks or fix that wobbly table leg 

you've been meaning to gel around to for 

the last year or so. take a very close look at 

just how many macros you get for your

the alternatium 

There are few ARexx front-end utilities on the market, a fact which lends Batch 

Facton/ much of its appeal. but those that do exist are much better, if more specialised. 

%Control. for example, is dedicated to ADPro batch processing and does the 

iob beautifully. Its simple and elegant inledace is much more attractive than Balch 

Factory's. and ProControl has the invaluable advantage of building scripts from 

scratch using point and click input from the user, 

In a straight light for the ADPro market, Batch Factory would go down in the first. 

stagger on through the second. and take a ten count in the third at the latest. 

Multiframe is a slightly different proposition in that it can be used to preview the 

effects of a script, a huge aid when rendering something like a 24-bit ripple pattern. 

As a batch processor it's fine, but many users will want something simpler for 

straightforward jobs. Unfortunately for Batch Factory, ProControl will scoop up most 

of These people in a trice. 

her 

mullah. In use, Batch Factory is very easy 

to use, and the manual is only really 

needed when the program Is first installed. 

So long as ARexx is running 

(the RexxMast program is usually run 

from Workbench's startup-sequence), 

Batch Factory will launch the required 

program, be it Image FX or ProPage, 

and carry out its assigned task without 

fuss. 

MASTERING 

Some tasks will require user input in the 

form of a new filename or a specified saved 

files directory, but all the tricky stuff drifts by 

while you make a cup of tea and give your 

latest issue of Amiga Computing the thorough 

reading it deserves. As with other

ARexx front-ends such as Fred and 

Mutiframe, you can master this program 

armed only with a working knowledge of the 

mouse. 

Besides the scripting functions, Batch 

Factory has a couple of very useful extra 

buttons, namely the reverse and loop buttons. 

Once the program knows the first and 

last files in the list to be reversed, the 

reverse feature inverts the order of the 

images and adds them to the list for

Alien is the Amiga's script-based language for communication between different programs 

and has been supplied as standard since Workbench 2.0 was released. 

An ARexx script is written as a text file in an editor such as ED or a word processor, then 

saved to disk for use by any program which supports the standard (most do nowadays). 

When a script is executed It runs in the background and can be used to do just about anything. 

so long as the application it is aiding has enough of its own ARexx functions built in. 

ADPro and ProPage are good examples of programs which can be completely controlled from 

ARexx. 

The script sends and receives commands from its parent program and can loop over and 

over again to carry out mundane tasks. such as renaming all the files in a particular directory 

or creating an animation from hundreds of single images. 

Batch Factory has over 300 scripts (or macros) and can run any that the user creates, thus 

taking the drudgery out of many tasks.

processing. This can be very handy when 

creating large animations and saves 

rendering the same sequence twice 

just to get, say, a morph to reverse its 

course. 

Loop is a simple button which 

again prompts for a first and last file before 

taking the selected files and adding them 

(in their original order) to the end of the file 

list. 

DPaint users will probably be thinking "so 

what?", but though looping and ping-pongwig 

are easy with 32-colour DPaint anims, 

irs not so easy with 24-bit images and not 

as widely supported in higher level 

packages. 

APPEAL 

These final two features give Batch 

Factory more appeal, but overall the package 

will only sell to those who use the packages 

it supports most or to those who 

aready program in ARexx. 

Without the facility to build new scripts 

from within the program, Batch Factory falls 

down in the novice stakes and robs itself of 

a much larger audience.

make sense, some system routine changes 

need to be discussed, 

In order to create the enhancements 

which came with Release 2, many established 

system procedures, like window 

opening, required extra data items to be 

specified. 

The new Commodore approach to this is 

based on the use of arrays that contain 

pairs of items consisting of an identifying 

label and a corresponding 'rear parameter 

value. 

Since these lists provide a way of tagging 

additional parameters Onto existing 0/S 

structures, they have been called tag lists 

and are based on system structures known 

as Tagitems. 

If you look in the Utility/lagiteml header 

you'll find that these entities are actually

The STRUCTURE, ULONG and LABEL 

Items are some general system macros 

designed to allow the assembly language 

included to be written using C style 

structures. 

You don't need to know how they work, 

just remember that each tag item consists of 

a pair of long word values - the fast long 

word provides a 32-bit idenfity, the second a 

corresponding 32-bit parameter value 

Tag identity values are, in the main, context 

specific and in the intuiliorti header file 

for example you'll fi nd defi nitions of a great

You'll see how tag list data is defined and 

used as we sketch out this month's code, 

but before that I need to explain exactly 

what we shall be doing. 

Last month I dealt with the code which. 

among other things. opened the Intuition 

library Now you might think that once this 

library has been opened we would simply 

have to use a suitable library function to 

open a window in the Workbench screen. 

Sorry, no such luck! 

To prevent a user or application from 

closing the Workbench before we can open 

a window, a locking routine' must be used 

to force the Workbench screen to remain 

open, 

An 'unlocking' function is also available 

and the idea is that we sandwich the window 

opening code somewhere between the locking 

and unlocking code. 

The locking/unlocking routines. called 

LockPubScreen() and UnlockPubScreen(), 

can be used on any public screens and are 

handled just like any other library functions. 

The required parameters are set up. the

library base is placed in register a6, and the 

appropriate indirect sub-routine call is made. 

On return, the results (if any) are checked to 

see that they are valid. 

One way of locking the Workbench 

screen is to set up a static name definition 

using a dc.b directive, along with a variable 

to store the returned Workbench pointer. 

For example: 

vorkbefich_noot d c . 4 lorkbe tcb 

. worebench_p 

,11VAL 

d s . l 

and then use this type of bare bones

We need to tell Intuition which screen we 

want our window to open in and this. along 

Error handling and program (lowdown 

with various other parameters, is something 

that we specify in a tag list. 

For clarity, the standard Commodore tag 

identity names should also be used, but to 

avoid requiring the use of the official 

include files I'll be setting up these items 

within the source code itself. 

The following EQUates do just that and 

produce results identical to those found in 

the offi cial intuilion/intuition.i and

At the moment we've got just four addlial operations to Worm. Screen 

'locking and unlocking, and window opening and closing. There will be many 

, more in the final program and, as with library opening, many of these operalions 

may conceivably fail_ 

Iplified 

version of something which, in my C programs, I call 'dynamic 

Fresource 

allocation'. 

o The idea is to code all allocation and opening operations as separate sub- 

r routines that try to carry out their intended job and then either fail and return 

t 

an error code, or succeed and push the address of a corresponding de-allocation 

routine onto a function pointer stack. 

h 

Under normal anon-error) termination conditions, program closedown 

i 

occurs by reading any existing pointers from the function pointer stack and 

s 

executing the corresponding de-allocation routines. 

e 

If during any of the allocation attempts an error occurs, the same stack 

x 

emptying routine gets called,but only those pointers that have been placed 

a' 

onto the slack prior to the occurrence of the error will be retrieved and 

mexecuted 

p Hence, one de-allocation loop handles both error and non-error condition 

l closedown perfectly safely. 

e This may seem like an unnecessary complicated way of doing things but 

pit's 

not been used to make things difficult for you Far from it, because this

WA_Lelt, WA_Top, WA_Width, 

WA_Height and WA_Title are used to provide 

details of the size and title of the window 

(provided in the corresponding data 

fields). 

WA_DragBar, as the name suggests, 

asks Intuition to place a drag bar on the 

window if the data item field is set to 

TRUE and WA PubScreen is used to 

supply the address of the screen being 

used. 

Most tag identities and values can be 

set up as static definitions consisting of 

identity+value pairs, so for the most part 

we can decide what values are needed 

before assembling the program! 

The data part of the WA_PubS 

however, a pointer to the public 

cannot be set up in this way since 

value comes back at run time from 

LockPubScreen() function. Because 

this you'll see that I've given tow 

WA_PubScreen data field a separalte 

label. 

The WorkBench address has to 

stored anyway (it's needed in order 

release the public screen lock) so rye 

chosen to store it directly in the tag WI 

data. 

Once the screen is locked a window 

can be opened and in this month's code 

am creating a 640x200 pixel window wilt 

a drag bar which opens at the top left

We pull the function pointer off the stack and providing that it is non-zero, 

execute the function. Just five instructions are needed, so the 680x0 chip is 

pretty good for these type of operations - do note though that a data 

register (rve arbitranly chosen dO) has to be used within the loop because 

you cannot use the 680x0's move instruction to load an address register 

directly. 

You'll notice in the source code on disk that I've set up a null address right 

at the top of the function pointer stack - this is specifically to allow this zero 

address test to be used to indicate when all items have been removed and 

used. 

There is another important benefit with this stack-based approach as well. 

The de-allocation/closedown routines automatically get executed in the 

reverse order to that used in the initial allocation/opening stages of the 

program. 

This provides a nice safe way of de-allocating things and avoids having to 

use loads of 'spaghetti code' jumps and branches to provide error pathways 

when operations fail. 

Listing 1 shows the code arrangements for the lockinglunlocking routines 

and listing 2 shows the window routines. (Note: these lisings referred to are 

on the Cover Disk along with the extended version of the code.) Notice incidentally 

that I'm using an error label that starts with a period in both sets of 

routines. 

This is Devpac's way of signifying a local label (a label that gets tagged 

onto the last used normal label to allow effective re-use ol commonly used 

labels like loop, error and so on), 

I've also changed a couple of loop names from last month's code to provide 

other local label illustrations. Note however, that with some 

other assemblers you may need to remove the penods and add a terminal $ 

sign to the labels to get the same effect (if in doubt, check your assembler 

manual).

There's a fair chance you'll have seen an

the correct way, 

Well now there's a program for your 

Amiga that allows you to create your own, 

and also a text file which explains exactly 

how they work_ 

If you, like many others, have come 

across these strange pictures before, you'll 

either be able to see them or you won't. If 

you can't then I'm sure you'll agree they can 

become extremely frustrating and soon you'll 

convince yourself Mal they don't exist. 

Maybe you should get hold of this offering 

and lock yourself in your room until you can. 

Believe me, it can take a while, but it's definitely 

worth it. 

This program allows you take any normal 

IFF picture (like the ones created in Deluxe 

Paint) and transform it into one of these 

magical wonders. The good news is that it 

works, and it works quite welt

The program is menu driven, simple to

Racing Maniacs is a fast game. It's even 

faster on an Al200. In fact, it's so fast you'll 

probably have difficulty playing it at first. 

Racing Maniacs is (as you've probably 

guessed from the title) a racing game in the 

style of Formula One Grand Prix, and is quite 

enjoyable. 

Two versions of the game are included on 

the disk: one for AGA machines and another 

for the opposite. Obviously it's enhanced for 

the Al 200 and runs like a dream. 

The graphics are in a 3D style and certainly 

nothing to boast about - basic green, 

grey and blue polygons that represent the

some impressive graphics and effects

some of which are quite excellent. 

The demo opens with an impressrve 

display of a mountain range, and uses 

some careful animation and pixelisaficet 

to add to the atmosphere. 

One thing I realised after watching tin 

particular demo was the lack of any tone 

of spinning objects that normally full 

the demo world, and this in itself is 

promising. 

Big Time AGA definitely makes full use 

of the AGA chipset, with 256 colour 

pictures and backdrops of a stunning 

quality. 

There's also a thumping tune by Bork 

pumping away in the background which 

lasts throughout the demo and is surprisingly 

clear.

where this game wins hands down.

gameplay such as head•to-head, tournament 

and different tracks to choose from

tracks against your opponent. with all

- as an added feature - weapons to attack

You are supplied with four mines for each 

track, the purpose being to destroy your 

opponent and claim victory. This adds a little 

more excitement to the game, especially 

when racing against your friends.

Anyone for a bit of gambling? Supplied on

tons of options and features to keep you 

going. 

Although not exactly stunning in the 

graphics or sound department, most of the 

games are of an average quality and offer 

similar features to their real-life counterparts. 

Nothing special however. 

The only major drawback I can see is the 

disk swapping. The entire compilation is 

provided on tour disks but linked together 

into one main system, whereby you choose 

and then insert the required disk. 

This can become a bit tiresome, although 

it is possible to install the game on hard disk 

which is a relief for some. Maybe it would 

have been a better idea to supply the 

games on separate disks (after all, they are 

essentially separate games) to avoid

simple aspects of your floppy disks. 

Basically, you insert the disk you wish to use 

and then select the option you require from a 

menu. 

You can use DiskManager to build up 

your own database of all your floppy disks, 

holding information such as the files con• 

tamed, the file system. space left, bad sectors 

and much more 

Simply by scanning the required disk, 

DishManager will display all the necessary 

information and store it where you like. 

Also included are some of the basic DOS 

commands related to files, such as delete. 

rename, etc. This is extremely useful for file 

management and although not giving as 

much control over your disks than, for 

example, Directory Opus or Sid v2. is still a 

worthy feature. 

Included is the ability to search through 

either your whole database or just a particular 

disk for specific file names, directories 

and hies of a certain size. This is ideal for 

locating a particular file and its whereabouts 

in your disk collection. 

Although DiskManager does offer an 

enormous selection of facilities. I didn't find 

the actual program very appealing, mainly 

due to the fact that the bulk at the features 

offered are available using other utilities. 

Commercial programs such as Directory 

Opus, Quarterback Tools and even 

Workbench and AmigaDOS are generally 

tar superior and also offer greatly used features 

that DiskManager sadly doesn't. 

Magic Workbench [Ktra5 

Available from: Kewell Software 

Disk No. U1096 

A while ago now. Magic WB was released 

in the Public Domain. It immediately shot 

up the charts as more and more Amiga 

owners saw it as a way of transforming 

their Workbench into a completely new and

The public domain is huge. However, most of 

the software available tends to be either some 

form of game or demo and we see little in the 

way of informative and educational work. 

Obviously there are such titles, but just a 

minority compared to the games world. 

First Aid Essentials is definitely one of 

those in the minority and because it's so different, 

it is likely to be the only one of its kind. 

As you may have already guessed, First 

Aid Essentials is a guide to first aid and what 

steps or precautions can be taken. 

Working from a large database. FAI offers 

information to the user on all different aspects 

of the human body — injuries, illnesses etc. It's 

simply a case of selecting the category from a 

menu screen to access the information neces- Meek out thsi human Akisiertan with First Aid Essontials. 

sary. For example, if you wished to obtain 

information on food poisoning, select "poisons", then "food-poisoning" and bingo, the information is displayed before 

you under three headings of symptoms, treatment and causes of illness. 

From this database you should be able to find most of the information required. Using First Aid Essentials is just like 

looking in an electronic book and could prove extremely handy in an emergency Although this disk will appeal to just a 

small handful of people, it is a very professional and informative piece of software, and while not being the most interesting 

of PD titles available, I thoroughly recommend it. 

Even if it sits at the back of your collection for an age, the fact that it could come in handy ono day is by far enough 

reason to own

original piece of software. 

In fact. they were wrong. All Magic WB 

consists of is replacement backdrops and 

icons, and essentially does not alter the 

software at all. However, it gave 

Workbench a new and more attractive look 

and many Amiga owners opted for its more 

professional style 

There was just one main problem concerned 

with Magic WB. Now the 

Workbench backdrop and icons were of a 

similar theme, any other icons (of utilities 

or games etc) unfortunately looked out of 

place with their old style blue and grey 

design, ruining the effect that Magic WB 

creates. 

Although it is impossible to solve this 

problem completely (short of designing 

your own icons) the author of Magic WB 

has done his best to prevent it, and has 

now released a whole disk full of replacement 

icons and backdrops) for most of the 

popular AmigaDOS 

Included on this disk are icons for the 

likes of DPaint, ADPro, Directory Opus, 

Disksalv. and loads more. There are also 

alternative icons for some of the earlier 

Magic WB offerings and some new ideas 

such as icons for certain types of files, for 

example graphics or sound. 

If you weren't satisfied with the selection 

of backdrops with the first release, then 

have a browse through the drawer of 

replacements, some of which are quite 

interesting. 

If you have Magic WB installed on your 

Amiga, then this disk is an invaluable 

upgrade and should definitely be considered. 

You may not use all the hies offered 

on the extras disk, maybe just a few, but 

even if only for the choice or a little alter- 

ation this disk is worth getting hold of. 

Your Workbench should be left looking 

even better than it did before!

The biggest game 

of 1 

94? 

Millennium, the Cambridge-based 

software house responsible for 

such hits as Brutal Sports Football, 

Diggers and the James Pond series 

of games, claim to have bagged 

the biggest games licence of 1994. 

The game is Mr Blobby and it 

will feature 60 levels of madness, 

mayhem and some darned fine 

gameplay to match. By the time 

Christmas comes around, you 

won't be able to move without 

bumping into Noel Edmonds' pink 

and yellow creation. 

Noel's House Party is watched 

by 13 million viewers and Blobby 

has even appeared on the front 

pages of the New York Daily News 

and the Washington Post. 

Noel Edmonds, so confident of 

Blobby's forthcoming success has 

already launched a number of 

Theme Parks in the UK which are 

attracting up to 10.000 visitors 

daily 

By the time the game arrives, a 

second hit single will be clambering 

up the charts and there will be 

over 260 Mr Blobby licensed gifts 

and products on the market for 

you to buy. 

I'm still unsure, simply because I 

can't stand Mr Blobby, but we shall 

see when the game arrives on all 

Amiga formats this Christmas. 

Budgets under 

a bluey! 

The Birmingham-based software house US Gold has just announced the launch of 15 

titles on their Kixx budget label 

The titles include 3D Pool, Action Fighter, Bionic Commando, Blasteroads, Carrier 

Command, E-Motion, Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade, International Soccer 

Challenge, MicroProse Soccer, Out Run, Rick Dangerous, Rick Dangerous 2, 

Streetfighter, Stunt Car Racer and last, but by no means least, World Class 

Leaderbord. 

All the titles are priced at £4.99, so there is no excuse for not running down the 

shops to buy a couple of new games. All the products should be in the shops by the 

time you read this. 

Going for goal! 

The World Cup is now over and I bet you've been as surprised as System at 

the amount of football games sitting on the shop shelves. You'll not have 

been able to afford all of them, but Empire have come up with what is 

surely the best-ever football compilation pack. 

Empire World Cup Year '94 contains Sensible Soccer, Goal, Championship 

Manager '93 (plus it's '94 data disk) and Striker. For football aficionados this 

is surely a compilation sent from heaven, but I suppose the majority of 

games players have got at least one out of the four games. 

If you haven't got any of these games then this is your lucky day, because 

Empire World Cup Year '94 costs only £25.99 which works out at about 

£6.50 per game.

Happy Daze are here again 

Daze, after the tremendous success of Stardust, ore 

back on the Amiga with two brand new releases to 

keep you entertained during the autumn months. 

Thefirst is the German-designed football management 

simulation entitled On The Ball: World 

Cup Edition Developed by Ascon, you begin the 

game as manager of a national soccer team, facing 

the first few qualifying rounds of the world's 

greatest sporting spectacular with the desire to go 

all the way and win the trophy, 

On The Ball features unique TV style coverage 

of each match with exciting action replays from 

various different vantage points around the stadium. 

A running commentary is also provided to 

add to the atmosphere. 

The graphics are actual animations and not 

jerky computer generated images. On The Ball has 

apparently sold loads of copies in Germany and 

now Daze are hoping that it will do the same here 

in Great Britain. 

On The Ball looks like a breath of fresh air in 

the world of computer football management simulations 

and should be out in the shops by the time 

The third part in the 'tha t series of adventures. 

avated by top French developers Slimarils, should be 

on your loca i shop shelves now 

On the Ba ll is a bra nd new footba ll management 

simulation which features amazing match a nim•tions 

as we ll as unique TV sty& coverage 

you read this Daze's second offering is the third 

part in the epic Ishar series of RPG/adventure games 

The games have become extremely popular over the 

last two years, mainly due to Silmarils' efforts in the 

graphics department. 

This time the French software house 

have included animated film sequences, quantum 

leap time travel, teleportation, character manipulation, 

detailed maps and even more spectacular 

locations. 

The evil wizard, who you thought you'd killed at 

the end of the second Ishar game, is back! Time is 

the main element in this third and maybe final game 

in the series. To kill the evil wizard Shandar, you 

must travel back in time and make your way 

through a series of time gates. 

Ishar 3 has a scheduled release date of September 

and will cost you a mere 132.99. An Al200 enhanced 

version will arrive at around the same time, but at 

the slightly higher price of E34.99. 

Streets ahead 

Street Fighter 2, the world's greatest beat-'em-up (allegedly) is going 

to feature in its own monthly comic. The Japanese - 

Mange will feature all sthe tcharacters y l e from s the t top-selling r i p computer game, as 

they take part in the ultimate Street Fighting tournament, set among 

the criminal underworld on the Island of Shad. 

Street Fighter 2 is the first new title from Manga Publishing, the 

newly-formed comics division of Manga Entertainment, producers of 

the best-selling Managa video line. it promises to combine all the 

action and excitement of one of the world's most popular video 

games. 

The comic strip is written and drawn by Masaomi Kanzaki, one of 

the top artists in Japan, whose other work includes the popular 

Manga video, Xenon. 

Each issue will feature a 32-page full colour story, plus a pull-out 

poster featuring characters from the game. The first issue spotlights 

the hero Ryu. 

As an additional bonus, a free pack of Super Street Fighter 2 stickers 

from Merlin Entertainemt will be given away with the first issue. The 

comic will go on sale for a measly 95p.

Adventure fans will be delighted tnat Sierra

sixth adventure in the King's Quest series 

onto the Amiga. As far as adventure 

games go, they don't get much better than 

this.

right. This is an intense and extremely satisfying

I'm sure many of you are now familiar with our new 

scoring system, but for those reading Amiga 

Computing for the first time and those who might 

have forgotten exactly how it works. here is our 

guide to the System scoring, err system. 

In our opinion, review scores have lost their context 

as a percentage; some products receiving scores 

which were only a few percentage short of being the 

"perfect" game, when in truth they were only 

marginally above average. 

Ott, so the scores might seem unnaturally low at 

first, but that's only because other scoring systems 

tend to be on the high side and perhaps not as comprehensive 

or honest as they could be. 

In the long run you'll receive a more concise and 

reader-orientated review that's geared towards the 

consumer. 

0-20 This is given to the lowest of the low 

31.40 Just below the average, perhaps 

let down by a few indiscretions. 

41•55 Games of this score are roughly average 

with SO being a perfectly average sc 

56-66 This is an above average game 

and is worth buying. For this reason 

it would be awarded the BRONZE 

award.

21-30 An all-round poor game that 

may have a single saving grace 

67-77 A game of high quality that

reservation in recommending. 

Anything of this ilk would be

you find a nightingale use the wind-up nightingale 

to befriend it. When you have done that, walk into 

the village and read the proclamation. 

Then enter the pawn shop. Use the wind-up 

nightingale on the shopkeeper and then select a

it and also pick up the rotten tomato. There 

is a hole in a wall. Look at the hole and then click on 

it_ Use the flute to make the wallflowers dance.

Millennium's new cutesy platform star must 

save the dinosaurs by collecting Ow spotty 

eggs, remembering to deposit Owm in his 

superb Pinkie pod for sa fe ty 

FLASHBACK 

There have been so many platformers similar to 

Pinkie that I could possibly list them all. 

Titles like Zool 2 and Bubba 'n' Stix stand out in 

the mind because they've only just come and gone, 

but if I had to compare Pinkie to anything. I would 

have to delve into Millennium's back catalogue. The 

NNW 1114 

Zool, Chuck Rock, Bub & Bob, and James Pond have 

appeared on the Amiga, but where are today's stars'? 

Zoo! has gone back to the Nth DiMenSiOn, Chuck has rocked oft Bub & Bob are somewhere 

over the rainbow and James Pond has flipped out! 

0 n The the lack past of some decent of characters the workt's is best slightly game worrying, characters but like I think a solution to rectify this 

problem has been found. Millennium, a company already successful with the James Pond series 

of adventures, have invented a brand new platform character and Pinkie is his name. 

With his home base set on the Planet Purpie, Pinkie is small in stature, owns a big heart, a 

bouncy walk, a huge appetite and perhaps the cheesiest grin you've ever seen in your life. 

The actual game is a blend of hot and frenzied platform action, plus a good healthy dose of 

ponies have been chucked in there for good measure. Millennium are hoping that Pinkie will 

do the business for them and hopefully become as big as his platform contemporaries.

GRAPHICS 

On his quest Pinkie must try to collect as many 

flowers as possible while a voiding his enemies 

James Pond series of games have delighted garners 

the world over with their brilliant mix of platform 

action and teasing set of puzzles. The best out of the 

series was, undoubtedly the last one Millennium 

released. 

James Pond 3 had better quality graphics than its 

predecessors and overall was a much more rounded 

and complete game, mainly due to its unmatched 

levels of gameplay and addiction 

INTRODUCTION 

The visuals in Millennium's platformer are 

superb and Pinkie really does look like a cartoon. 

This is partly down to the traditional 

animation pastel colour palette which really 

brings all the game characters to life 

Not surprisingly, Millennium have got plans 

to take their pink star from the monitor 

screen and place him on the TV screen in his 

own animated cartoon. 

The main character jumps and prances 

around the screen 

and is very well 

animated, pluc 

there are so many 

nice animated 

touches that it's 

obvious a lot of 

time and trouble 

has been spent on creating Pinkie.

The backgrounds differ from level to level 

and range from snowy wastes to alien worlds 

(complete with pulsating backdrops). The 

graphics arPso good that Pinkie literally looks 

like a breath of fresh air in the otherwise dull 

and stale world of platformers.

STONYUNIE 

Pinkie makes plenty of happy jaunts to other planets in the 

solar system with the intent of exploring and meeting other 

beings. Pinkie's first mission in this, his debut game, is to 

save the alien dinosaurs from extinction 

This is done by collecting the eggs and keeping them safe 

in his Pinkie pod. The eggs are yellow with blue spots and 

are extremely fragile. When the eggs hatch a fully formed

OPINION 

Pinkie is a cracking little platform* It looks beautifu 

with its pastel coloured graphics, it has a nice and 

cheesy poptastic soundtrack and even the gameplay 

differs from its competitors as it's heavily puzzlebased_ 

The animation of the characters, including the 

baby dinosaur pops out. The eggs have been placed, unfortunately 

for Pinkie, in the most precarious of places 

throughout the galaxy. 

If the hero of the game drop5 an egg it is likely to shatter. 

Once this happens, the baby dinosaur immediately extends 

its legs out until they reach the floor and then runs away. 

These highly mobile eggs cause Pinkie all manner of problems. 

If Pinkie does manage to collect all the eggs and save 

the dinosaur race, he will be handsomely rewarded by the 

King of the Pinkies. 

Pinkie's p o d has m ore 

gadgets than th e

important d in o sa u rs eggs 

hero, is very accomplished and well presented 

The end-of-level guardians are especially worth 

checking out, due to the sheer gargantuan size of 

them_ 

Pinkie, as a concept, isn't anything different and 

doesn't contain any new surprises, but as a game on 

its own works remarkably well. I don't think I've seen 

a platformer cuter than this one and I imagine Pinkie,

SOUND 

The music in Pinkie is pure 

unadulterated pop and so it 

should be. The games score will 

go down in the history books as 

just another cheesy platform 

tune, but Millennium have taken 

the concept of game music a step 

further, 

The Cambridge-based company 

approached Station 2 Station, a 

music marketing company 

responsible for getting Mr Blobby 

to number two in the charts last 

Christmas and for working with 

top pop stars like Right Said Fred, 

to see whether licensing Pinkie to 

music would be a good idea. 

The brief was not to produce a 

single from the game music, 

instead Millennium asked Station 

2 Station to produce an original 

interpretation of a game "score'. 

Station 2 Station finished up 

with a 30-track single entitled 

"Play•lt" and it features the vocal 

talents of Kelly Smith AKA Little 

Sister. CO32 owners will have the 

pleasure of having all 30 mixes of 

the same single and you, as the 

listener, will be able to make up 

your own favourite mix. 

Al200 owners will just have to 

buy the single on its own when it 

hits the charts! 

The sound effects, before I forget, 

are just standard noises and 

aren't worth shouting about, but 

they do the job adequately 

enough. 

80% 

as a character, w1;1 be a huge success. The game is 

obviously going to appeal to the 11-16 age group, 

mainly because that's exactly who the game was 

designed for. Older garners might want to take a 

look, but may prefer something with a little more 

substance. 

Pinkie is a harmless little platformer that won't 

hurt anybody.

INTRODUCTION' 

n the past, many companies have 

attempted to create involving and 

stylish graphic adventures, with 

varying degrees of success. These days it takes something a little 

bit special to make heads turn. but Derby-based Core Design 

have an impressive track record with games such as Chuck Rock 

and Heimdall proving especially successful. 

Core are confident that Universe will make a major impact on an 

already crowded marketplace. 

Innovative graphic and sound systems have been developed, but the 

game aims to be more than just a pretty face. There are also a couple of 

arcade sequences, despite the fact that in the past otherwise excellent 

games like Operation Stealth have been spoiled by over-tricky arcade 

sections. 

However, the emphasis has clearly been on creating a challenging and 

atmospheric adventure that can be easily controlled via an uncomplicated 

system of user-friendly icons.

STORYLINE 

Boris is just a normal kid living in a typical suburban neighbourhood. 

His dad probably works for a merchant banking firm in 

the town centre, and his mum does part time work at a local 

estate agents. 

Boris has a sister called Jenny, who is about five years 

younger than him and likes Neighbours, Just Seventeen and 

Take That, 

Boris is quite keen on computing, and he's just 

invested in a brand spanking new 35-bit Excellence Engine 

which knocks the socks off his best mate's 986PC XDAT VHS 

thingy. 

One winter's day, Boris is happily tinkering away in his bed• 

room when his mother, concerned that her beloved son is 

devoting too much time to an expensive piece of silicon and 

plastic, decides to send him on an errand - taking some mail to 

his Uncle George's house. 

Boris grudgingly toddles his way through the centre of 

Ashby-de-la-Zouch on his despite the recent snowfall, 

dodging Christmas shoppers wherever possible and colliding 

with them wherever not. 

Along the way he ponders some fundamental questions of 

life, such as "What's in the envelope?", "Why does dropped 

toast always land buttered side down?' and "Who created 

Eamon Holmes?' Eventually, having answered two of these 

questions, he reaches Uncle George's house. 

Uncle George is slightly wacky and eccentric, and among all 

manner of junk in his house, Boris finds a bizarre machine. 

Foolishly, he begins messing and promptly gets zapped into 

another dimension. 

Some might say it serves him right, but regardless of whether 

it does or not it is your task to return Boris to his home, Having 

the opportunity to save the universe along the way is really an 

added bonus, 

Much was expected of this 

graphical adventure from the 

creators of Curse of 

Enchantia. nave Cusick finds

GRAPHICS 

tt's hard not to be impressed by the beautiful moody backdrops which were 

lovingly crafted by top-quality artists and then scanned into the computer. 

There is some very effective use of colour and in places the scenery is 

nothing short of spectacular. Take a look at the screenshots and you'll 

appreciate just how stunning the effect can be. 

Core says that Universe features a revolutionary new graphics system 

which allows up to 256 colours on screen, even on an A500. The desire to 

see new locations in all their graphical splendour is probably one of the reasons 

that Universe holds the attention so well. 

Our hero Boris has quite a range of moves available to him, and the animation 

throughout is extremely lifelike and smooth He shrinks as he moves 

further away from the front of the screen, but lases little detail in doing so. 

The intelligently designed Icon panel means Universe 

Is easy to get into but strangely addictive 

FLASHBACK 

The game which really started 

the trend for point-and-click 

adventures was the ageing 

Monkey Island, but to be honest 

I reckon Universe has a 

more effective control system 

and is streets ahead in terms 

of presentation. 

Monkey Island 2 was a 

great game but some of the 

puzzles could be a little 

strange and the game was 

supplied on a huge number of 

disks which meant plenty of 

swapping. 

A fairer comparison might 

be Beneath A Steel Sky, a far 

more recent release with a 

similar science-fiction setting. 

In this you play Robert Foster, 

who finds himself in Union 

City. You must discover why 

you are there and what you 

must do now that you are. 

It features a unique Virtual 

Theatre system developed by 

programmers Revolution 

Software, meaning that other 

people in the game go about 

their day-to-day business normally, 

so there is a feeling that 

you are part of a real living 

world.

Without doubt, Universe is one of the games of the year so far. It has class in copious 

amounts and is presented outstandingly well. 

The combined icon /• and text control system is intuitive and friendly, making this 

a simple game to get to grips with and allowing for maximum user enjoyment. 

While it would appear that Universe is smaller than, for instance, Beneath a 

Steel Sky, with regards to the number of disks, there is certainly plenty of depth 

and challenge. 

Some of the puzzles encountered are completely mystifying, until suddenly the 

solution dawns on you and you wonder why on earth you didn't realise what to 

do a little earlier on. 

As with all good adventure games, there will probably be times when you turn 

the computer off in frustration, only to return later when inspiration strikes, 

Our universe is thought to be somewhere between 10 and 20 billion years old. At 

present the most distant detected galaxies are thought to be around 10 billion 

light years away, but scientists believe that the universe is expanding constantly. 

The speed at which galaxies are moving away from us is thought to be 

between 30 and 60 miles per second for every million parsecs between them and 

the earth. 

Apparently though, Boris is no longer in our universe - he's in an anti-universe 

called Paralela_ Because of this, although Boris does indeed have to save the universe, 

there is a spark of originality in that it's not actually our universe he's 

saving. 

From the brief extracts from the Encyclopaedia Paralela supplied with the 

game. Paralela is very different from our universe, All of this suggests that either 

Uncle George was one of the greatest scientists who ever lived, or that he was a 

crazed fool meddling with forces far beyond his control. 

is this WheefworOct or.,

SOUND 

INHI 

In its early stages, Universe boasts 

the sort of ambient in-game soundtrack 

that the Orb would be proud 

of. The effect of this is to conjure up 

a marvellous all-pervasive atmo 

sphere of supreme calmness and 

cosmic loneliness, enhancing the 

gaming experience no end, 

The title theme is suitably 'moos 

ing and sets the scene quite nicely 

It has a familiar-sounding air about 

it without sounding predictable or 

unoriginal. 

In fact, throughout the game the 

music is of a very high standard. If 

you do find yourself reaching for 

the volume control, it will most 

likely be to turn it up. 

Core says that during play the 

music adapts to the mood of the 

game in a manner similar only to 

the LucasArts IMuse system, making 

it something of a novelty on the 


There aren't really many sound 

effects, but they're not missed due 

to the presence of such a feast of 

sonic delight 

Ors 

whereupon you will play the game for hours until you next become badly stuck. 

The difficulty level makes success all the more satisfying. 

The smattering of humour which is liberally sprinkled throughout the game 

adds considerably to the experience_ While Universe is not a comedy adventure in 

the mould of Leisure Suit Larry or even the Monkey Island games, it is good to see 

that it does not take itself too seriously. 

Also, adventure purists will be happy that the occasional arcade sections are 

surprisingly well implemented. Another nice touch is that in a bar on Wheelworld, 

the arcade machines feature extremely good versions of timeless classics. 

It is a shame that Universe is not hard drive installable since this would have 

made playing it an even more pleasurable experience, but to be fair the designers 

have tried to eliminate disk swapping wherever possible and loading times are 

kept to a bare minimum, 

Universe is the type of adventure game that will be enjoyed by even those normally 

disinterested in the genre, and must be highly recommended,

The Education of Henry Adams 

ADDITIONAL INFO 

rhe story of Kid Chaos relies on 

the futuristic image that man 

will be able to travel backwards 

and forwards in time (i.e. scientists 

from the 21s 

-back 

to the stone age to kidnap 

t Kid Chaos). 

century Many theories have been 

tpushed r a forward v e on the subject, 

l 

making it a topic rich in 

opportunity to stretch the 

imagination. 

With many explorations into 

space having been made, things 

that didn't even seem vague 

possibilities are now reality. 

Those born at the turn of the 

century would have merely 

laughed at the thought of sending 

one man and his dog into 

space, but then in 1957 toe first 

dog was sent orbiting around 

the Earth to determine the 

effect of weightlessness on 

animals. 

And only a few years later we 

witnessed the first man landing 

on the moon. So, what may 

seem bizarre or impossible to us 

now may well become a distinct 

possibility in the future_ 

In the meantime though, people 

can only speculate, and 

images of time travel can still 

conjure the imagination without 

the restrictions of reality.

It probably makes a pleasant change but I'm actually 

stuck for words. The graphics really are breathtaking and 

Its hard to sum them up well enough to do them justice. 

Layers upon layers of parallax scrolling have been used 

to create a terrific sense of realism and depth, and 

updates at the most terrific rate to keep up with the 

action 

Consoles can disappear up their own cartridge holes 

because as far as I'm concerned this looks as good, 

if not better, than some supposedly superior console 

platformers 

There are many different settings, from Secret Gardens 

to Toxic Wastelands, and each one looks superb, picking 

up on a bright, cartoon like feel.

STORYLINE 

Hmm, a bit dodgy this one but 

here goes. Kid Chaos, a cave-kid, 

was kidnapped by evil scientists 

from the future and transported 

back to the 21st Century, 

They experimented on him 

and forced him to wear modern 

clothes - this being the most 

contrived excuse for his dubious 

choice in clothing I've ever 

heard. 

The kid, having somewhat of 

an aversion to being experimented 

on and having to wear 

blue slacks, decides to escape. 

However, the exits are 

blocked by force fields but the 

kid overhears the scientists talk- 

ing - in true blockbuster movie 

fashion - and hurrah, by smashing 

enough scenery this breaks 

the sources of the force field 

and unblocks the exits. 

He escapes and now it's your 

job to guide him home_

FLASHBACK 

Take your pick really. There are 

enough platformers to look back 

on and compare. Well. I'll start 

with Zool, the game which sets 

the standards tor other Amiga 

platiomers to follow. 

It's a hard act to match but 

Kid Chaos does come pretty 

close, although Zool plays a little 

faster than Kid Chaos and looks 

slightly prettier as well. 

Unlike most olatformers 

though. Kid Chaos is not cute. In 

fact this is where it derives a 

great deal of its appeal. Instead 

of rescuing sweet fluffy bunnies 

you actually get to beat them 

out of the way with a club. 

And instead of having to play 

an annoyingly cute sprite you 

get to play a Billy Idol look-a-like 

with an attitude for smashing 

the place up with a baseball bat. 

The amount of de far t makes for a 

visually superb game 

Yet again brilliant. The fast dance track works well with the style of the 

game and it even becomes realistically muffled when the character disappears 

under water, 

Sound effects such as when Kid Chaos smashes the scenery works well 

and gives a great feeling of a real smash-'em-up fest!

but so far there's not been 

one that's really astounding. 

So with US Gold releasing this offering, the 

official World Cup license, it's bound to be good. 

Or is it? 

SONO 

Yes, it does have some and at first it 

sounds quite convincing but after a 

while it does start to sound rather a 

like being in a train toilet while 

whining through a tunnel. Sorry, but 

that is the most apt description I can 

use to describe it. 

It does change slightly when you 

take a shot at goal but somehow it 

just doesn't seem to create much 

atmosphere.

What a sorry sight this is Well, first off, we have these enormous 

green borders around the screen, reducing the actual 

game to almost half the screen. Why this has happened is anyone's 

guess, but it looks dreadful and makes it very distracting. 

And then we have the actual sprite size which give the 

impression of "Oh, we couldn't quite make our minds up 

whether we wanted small or large sprites, so we've opted for 

some that aren't really either.' They're too small to show any 

animation and too big to play as well as the tiny Sensible Soccer 

sprite. 

Animated sequences have been used to show the referee and 

the crowd cheering after a goal, but they don't look particularly 

effective and slow the proceedings down to a snairs pace.

FLASHBACK 

Many football games are available now to choose from and this 

lust isn't worth forking out your cash for. 

It does have a good range of options but these are available in 

other games anyway, One different option is to change the 'Glue 

factor' - how close the ball stays to your feet when tackling - 

..vhich works well. 

The others though, such as Game speed, weather, and the feature 

to customise the World Cup match, have all been included in 

other games which are a darn sight more playable than this 

tedious effort. 

Save your money for Goal or Sensible Soccer. They may be old 

but they certainly show these new games a thing or two. Or if 

you really do want a new footy game then I'd still wait...the computer 

footy games season ain't over yet! 

Penalty practice - and the goalie has passed 

out with the a trocious gra phics! 

As if all this wasn't bad enough, the game is full of bugs. it crashes and is glitchy 

- the graphics flicker terribly when two players cross over. The whole thing looks 

rushed Out in time for the World Cup. 

There was some hope with all the options available but this was let down by 

the most ridiculous option screens I've ever seen. They've insisted on using the 

official dog mascot at every opportunity - just in case we should forget that this 

is the official merchandise_ This all leads to total confusion as you try to differentiate 

between one dog picture and another. 

Incidentally, once you've changed all the variables to suit your game style they 

don't make that Much of a difference anyway. There's even the option to change

SIMULATION 

To get the idea of how World 

Cup USA really plays, simply 

imagine standing in a train toilet 

while going through a tunnel 

(for the sound effects), squinting 

to see only half the action and 

playing with a Space Hopper 

rather than a ball. That will be 

pretty close. 

Seriously, it doesn't get much 

better than this and it is about 

as far away from the real thing 

as you can get. 

Set-pieces are taken using a 

method of setting an arc of dots 

to direct the ball in the required 

direction. Unfortunately this 

isn't very effective and is fiddly 

to do. 

Goalkeepers are too easy to 

beat and the player simply takes 

his shot and stands there. 

There's no following it through 

in case there's a rebound which 

he could redirect into the goal - 

incredibly irritating. 

A one or two button joystick 

can be used and even though 

the moves should be quite simple 

to carry Out, the controls feel 

unresponsive and clumsy.

the colour of the teams socks. Is this meant to be serious? Does anyone really care 

what colour socks they have? 

I mean anyone with a modicum of common sense would surely have realised 

and said, "Hey, why don't we concentrate on things that really matter, like 

gameplay?" 

This is what counts after all. Somehow you don't feel in control of the game 

and there are no impressive moves to carry out. 

Most of all, the game is incredibly boring! Even the most appalling football 

games manage to conjure some excitement especially in two-player mode. But 

not so in this case. You find yourself wishing for the final whistle and the game 

does nothing to evoke the competitive spirit. 

This really is the spit in the referees whistle - avoid - unless of course you 

really are a glutton for punishment.

latforrners seem to have made a bit 

of a revival of late with some top 

quality titles making an appearance. 

Its finally been acknowledged that these games need a little 

more to them to make them interesting and estrogenic seem 

to be on the right lines with their platformeripuzder. Bubble 

and Squeak. 

Although the characters are irritahngly cute the garne is rather taxiing 

SOUND 

Again it is in keeping with the platformer style using lively, 

jaunty tunes which fit in with the pace. 

Sound effects are in abundance and are of a very high 

standard. In fact there seems to be a different sound for 

every action. From enemies sneezing at you to rippling 

water, they all sound realistic and work well. Background 

sounds have even been thought out, like birds tweeting. 

At first I thought the character's sampled phrases (such as 

"Wait here 

- they a simply n d reinforce what is happening in the game.

OPINION 

STORYLINE 

Now this is a weird one! 

Apparently a character called 

Squeak just happens to drop 

through a Black Hole and asks 

you (Bubble) to become hero of 

the universe. 

The land of Grool, Squeak's 

home, is under a reign of terror 

of the evil Kat of Nine Tails who 

has enslaved all the Grooleans 

arid stolen their tails. 

Squeak managed to escape 

and now needs your help to free 

the Grooleans. 

Gone are the days when 

Bubble and Squeak was 

merely the dreaded choice 

on the School dinner menu 

sbecause now it's a tasty 

new platformer from 

Audingenic. Tina Hackett

efforts look and

.' 

s o itsalwaysnicetoplaythosethatinvolvea good 

I 

puzzle element too. 

t 

Bubble and Squeak does take a fair bit of working out and it's 

not a game you can just whiz through. 

i 

The puzzles require you to work out how to get the two characters around the 

levels by using the objects 

s 

and character's abilities - for example, jumping onto 

Squeak's back to reach q higher levels or operating the lifts wdh the switches located 

on different platforms. u 

This works extremely i well and leaves us with a very enjoyable and addictive 

game. 

t 

It may actually be e a little too cute for some but this doesn't mean it is an easy 

game. Ignore the misleading c cutesy factors and it is a taxing but very playable title. 

The password system o is a more than welcome feature (although fiddly to operate) 

because In some places, if you make a small mistake like falling off a platform, there 

m 

seems to be no way out other than starting from scratch again.

Although it looks nothing new and is the usual platformer type thing with cute sprites and bright, 

cheerful graphics, it does work exceptionally well and is of a very high standard. 

The backdrops are detailed, the levels set out well and the special effects such as the lightning and 

the character becoming darker underwater look brilliant. 

On the bonus level, you take charge of an underwater submarine and this is where the graphics 

really do excel. Using psychedelic, kaleidoscopic patterns to convey the rippling water, the scenery 

becomes part of the puzzle as you make your way through seaweed and foreground and background 

obstacles. 

The characters have been nicely animated and add some humorous touches. For example, if Bubble 

is left standing he will yawn or Squeak will tap his feet.

Rubble Gum 

machines give 

Squeak spe cia l 

powers 

The game has many objectives which keep things very interesting. There are frve 

worlds on the planet Grool and each one has at least five different levels. You also 

get to progress onto shoot-'em-up levels and bonus games. 

On some levels the water will rise and cut off some of the lower levels. If either 

characters become submerged they will lose a life. This keeps things frantic and the 

pace exciting. 

Gumball machines also play a big part believe it or not, and buying the Bubble 

Gum for Bubble results in giving him special powers to fly or move as fast, or jump 

as high as Squeak. 

Plenty of attention to detail has been paid, especially in creating themed settings 

and imaginative sprites, such as the Stardust Caverns with it's Red Crawlers and 

Baseball Ducks who will hit any fire you hit back at them. 

This Is a very polished game, with a great deal of attention paid to every aspect, 

providing varied gameplay and detailed graphics. The game has been very nicely put 

together and although it is another platformer, it is of a high quality and has 

enough puzzles in it to keep it challenging. a

FLASHBACK 

There are many games in this puzzler/platformer genre but perhaps the closest 

to Bubble and Squeak is Core Design's Bubba 'N' Stix which involves a similar 

sort of gameplay. 

In this case you have to use a stick character to get around the levels, 

whereas now it is an alien. Both have an exceptionally high standard of 

graphics and have many, logical puzzles to solve. 

This is more than just another platformer and has many more aspects to 

the gameplay than usual.

iolence sells. Don't take 

my word for it, take a look 

at the facts. Street Fighter 

2, Mortal Kombat and 

Body Blows have all been 

amazing successes across 

their own various formats. 

The majority of these beat-'em-ups 

are jam-packed full of nothing more 

than 'cartoon" violence. I mean have

No, of course you haven't because, 

and here's a thing, computer games 

aren't real! That's not to say that there 

isn't a person out there who has spent 

twenty years training in martial arts, 

almost as much time studying ancient 

Chinese legend and is now ready to 

become the portal for the ancient and 

The finishe d 

drawings of the 

enernoes that will 

appear in Master 

Axe: rhe Genesis 

of itlysterit 

banished five guardians of the earth. 

Sounds weird, but it's totally true. Neil 

Axe is his name and he's about to star in 

his very own beat-'ern-up entitled 

MysterX - but his story goes much deeper 

than that. 

Born in the year of the snake in Bucks, 

Neil Axe (real name) was first taught 

karate by his father at the age of five He 

spent seven years learning karate-based 

self defence, before using the next couple 

of years to widen his skills in two 

other forms of karate. Wado Ryu and 

Shotokan. 

After dabbling in boxing, Akido 

and Judo, Neil moved to New 

Zealand where a five year 

gap in his martial arts 

training was 

mainly with bouncing 

work in night-clubs. 

On Neil's return 

to Britain, more 

study in several martial 

arts resulted in 

Neil's rise to the top of 

his chosen profession 

and eventually became 

known as Master Axe - but 

his story doesn't stop there. 

Oriental legend has it that there are 

five guardians of the earth: Quazar, 

Stone, Storm, Aqua and Fire, All were 

banished from this plane 9000 years ago 

by man, who felt that he no longer 

needed their advke, 

Since then, chaos has ruled the earth 

and without the guardians it seems set to 

continue. The guardians need to find a 

human host through which to project 

themselves into this world once more, but 

the host is a rare being and must possess 

a number of special skills. 

The skills required are those of the 

fabled Manimal Warriors: Bull, Dragon, 

Crane, Leopard, Mantis, Monkey. 

Phoenix, Snake and Tiger. It will take 

many years to select the host, as a test is 

required for the chosen one 

In 11988 Neil Axe led a team of four 

men (Roger. Michael, Julian and Mr Axe 

himself) across the United States, sparring 

in various towns and cycling around 4000 

miles from New York to San Diego, 

This, as Neil believes, was the 

test The guardians had 

appeared to Neil in 

dreams before the 

trip, but it wasn't 

until he finished 

his cycling guest 

(which incidentally 

raised funds 

for the Great 

Ormond Street 

-lospital) that he 

inally realised it. 

Look I know it 

sounds far out, but Neil 

states very clearly that the five 

guardians wish to make their voices heard 

through him and that he is the chosen 

one 

Ridicule the story if you wish, but by all 

accounts Mr Axe is not one of those people 

that you'd want to mess with, but I 

swear that the above story is true. 

The full official and impressive title of 

Millennium's bea•'em-up is Master Axe 

The Genesis of MysterX, but it isn't a 

straightforward out and out beat-'ern-up, 

Chris Elliot, the head honcho behind 

the creation of the game, explains just 

how MysterX will work. 

The beat-'em-up will be split 

into four distinct parts: The 

Academy, Coast to Coast 

Trial by Combat and Spirit 

Struggle. Each part will test 

the player on a slightly 

different level, as well as 

portraying varying types 

of atmosphere" 

The Academy 

part is essentially 

a trainer level to 

enable the player 

to get friendly with 

the controls and practice 

all the moves needed to complete 

the quest. Spirit Struggle is a

)re, but 

possess

The preliminary sketches for Master Axe's opponents include a cop who Neil. Roger, 

Michael and Julian ran into while cycling across the United States of America 

two-player section, whereby the competitors 

control the dark and light (dark 

representing evil, light representing 

good) side of one of the four characters 

on the spooky spirit plane. 

Trial by Combat is another two-player 

level and is a tournament mode based on 

Neil and his cornrade's adventures in 

places like Las Vegas, Los Angeles and 

Maui, 

SPRITES 

Coast by Coast, which was destined at 

one time to become the first game in a 

MysterX series, is a one-player game featuring 

the previously mentioned cycle 

trek across the USA. 

As well as Neil, Roger, Michael and 

Julian, one of which you'll be able to 

control, there are to be eight computer 

opponents who pop up during various 

stages. 

The game is only in it's beginning 

stages and has a predicted release date 

of November - therefore only the Neil 

Axe sprites and a handful of backgrounds 

are fully complete - but already 

it's looking rather good. 

Neil himself is more than pleased with 

Neil Axe in front of the 

ster 

the backgrounds. - 

I've looking at just about every other beats'em-up 

p ethere n t is," says Master Axe 'and all 

mright. oI'm nbiased. t h 

s 

"I don't like special moves and I think 

that from a martial arts viewpoint, which 

n o 

some of them try to emulate, the move- 

w 

ment is ridiculous. Apart from that 

though, there is a tendency to treat the 

backgrounds as an afterthought. 'A pier 

somewhere', 'a city street anywhere', that 

kind of thing_ What Chris and Millennium 

have done though is just superb. 

- The A500/600 versions of Mys 

be -released 

first, with the enhanced 

Al200 terX and wCO32 i l versions l following soon 

after. The A5001600 version may have 

slightly less moves than it's more powerful 

counterparts. 

MysterX is going to be that little bit 

different from the norm. It's not a license, 

it's based on a real story and a real 

person. 

Neil Axe will be punching and kicking 

his way on to the Amiga very soon and 

with plans for his own Hollywood movie 

and countless merchandising deals, the 

computer game is only the tip of the 

iceberg

games now genuinely excite me, 

Theme Park is one product I'm 

eagerly looking forward to, the same 

goes for Oceans IFX and Inferno, but 

there is one piece of software I saw a 

year ago which excited me more than 

anything I have seen in a long time. 

Dreamweb, developed by Creative 

Reality and published by Empire, is now 

only a month away from release and 

about to make Reservoir Dogs look like 

Play School. 

It's an overhead view role-play 

adventure game and on its menu is bad

Reality bites! 

Creative Reality was formed about four years ago and consists of just two people - 

Neil Dodwell (odes while Dave Dew produces all the graphics. The duo have worked 

on almost every machine and completed about 15 products between them_ 

Before Dreamweb, Neil and Dave created the wonderful Myth for System 3. The 

two were also responsible for several older Spectrum games including Nemesis the 

Warlock and Slaine from 2000AD, plus they've done various conversions onto the 

consoles. 

Both developers have never had any formal training and never had a 'proper" 

, The two work well as a team and their best work is always something that the 

ve collaborated on. 

• The Dreamweb concept was first conceived sometime in 1989. Creative Reality, 

, e so many developers, got bored with linear platform games and then got the 

ea to do a role-play adventure. The name 'Dreamweb' was what first started the 

: ole project because Creative Reality thought that it was a powerful film-like 

_ me. 

The game has been through many ideas and story lines and it's taken just over

Dreamweb has an adult theme and thus 

is going to be aimed at the same audience 

who have seen films like Blade 

Runner and Akira. 

Empire are even going to give the 

game a voluntary 19 certificate, so 

angered parents need not worry - not 

that they should anyway because their 

kids need only watch the News at Ten to 

get their daily dose of violence.

four years to complete. This in computer game terms is a hell of a long time, but 

Empire have let the lads have complete freedom to do what they want and firmly 

believe that Dreamweb is worth waiting for. 

In the future, Creative Reality are hoping to do more games using the 

Dreamweb adventure engine. The duo are planning to use CD technology more 

and more as it is ideally suited to games like Dreamweb.

Dreamweb is a graphically huge 

adventure and as with the programming, 

it was all done by one person. There are 

over 4000 frames of animation alone, 

each frame hand-drawn by Dave Dew. 

The graphics are heavily stylised and give 

more than a nod and a wink to the visuals 

seen in Ridley Scott's Blade Runner. 

Dave didn't use any clever techniques 

such as digitising - everything was drawn 

with his own fair hand. Most of the 

graphics were produced using Creative 

Reality's own adventure editor, but some 

of the larger sprites and backgrounds 

were created on Deluxe Paint. 

rve seen a 99% complete version of 

Dreamweb and all Creative Reality need 

to do is add the ever-changing atmospheric 

soundtrack, but I can't really fail 

to be impressed_ 

I know this is a preview and not a

The begirtrung of the 

game. A guarcharp on the

but graplucaify not much

first initiai sketch 

vet the last few years the term 

"interactive cartoon" has 

slowly translated into "unplayable 

game. 

fault of the - Tdevelopers h i s who have been 

putting itoo s much emphasis on the 

graphics t and h sound e and forgetting 

about what really counts, the 

playability. 

The first interactive cartoons on the 

Amiga were the Dragon's Lair and 

Space Ace series of games. Technically, 

these software products were outstanding 

and caused many garners' jaws to 

drop. 

The down side, due to massive 

amounts of data involved, was that the 

games came on far too many disks 

which meant you were sentenced to a 

life in swapping hell. 

The Sullivan Bluth Studios, famous 

for motion pictures such as Freddy 

F.R.0.7, All Dogs Go To Heaven and 

more recently Thumbelina, handled all

0 0 

the animation and did a really good job 

with the products, but they were 

all sadly lacking in the playability 

department. 

3.5" disks are now becoming slowly 

defunct and it looks like the computer 

industry is quickly moving towards the 

CD format. The CD is able to hold huge 

amounts of data and some machines 

like the CD32 even have built-in FMV 

(Full Motion Video) modules, enabling 

the user to watch current movies on 

CD. 

This means games like Space Ace will 

now become more commonplace and 

with the data storage problem sorted, 

prominence can now be, at last, put on 

gameplay. 

The Irish division of Gremlin Graphics 

have been working on a game to fully 

test the CD32's capabilities in the interactive 

cartoon department. Its called 

Litil Divil and has taken four years to 

complete. Litil Divirs story begins in the

Grand Council in the Chamber of the

Ancients.

mthrough 

the labyrinth of Chaos, and 

obring 

back the Mystic Pizza of Plenty. 

r Every year, one of the Divils is selected, 

r but as yet none have ever returned 

ofrom 

their quests. 

Each Distil in turn must reach into the 

w 

sacred pot and pull out a straw. The 

i 

one with the shortest must go and find 

s 

the pizza. When it comes to Mutt's 

turn, he surprisingly gets stuck with the 

short straw, 

After much celebrating from the 

other Divils and congratulations 

received from the Grand Councillor, 

Mutt is shoved towards the entrance to 

the Labyrinth. 

Despite the terrible inscriptions outside, 

Mutt makes a start on his treacherous 

journey - this is where you take 

control of Litil Distil, 

There are two distinct styles of game 

contained within Gremlin's arcade 

adventure. The first and main one is a 

3D maze which Mutt must explore, 

looking for doors which lead to the second 

style of game. 

Through theses door are puzzles 

or quest rooms and these must be 

successfully negotiated before 

Mutt is able to progress further into the 

maze, 

The puzzles range from dealing with 

huge spiders to playing a fishy game of 

• 

"Simon says" with a wicked mermaid 

Some of the puzzles are relatively 

straightforward, while some will have 

you racking your brains - but nothing 

that you won't be able to finally get 

past. 

The 3D maze is littered with traps of 

all shapes and sizes. Each one, if 

sprung, takes some health-force away 

from Mutt. To restore this rapidly 

decreasing energy bar, Mutt can pick 

up loads of food which can be found 

dotted around the levels. 

The most outstanding features of 

Litil Distil are the graphics. Apart from 

Microcosm, Gremlins adventure is the 

best-looking game yet to appear on the 

CD32. The sprites and characters look 

set to rival anything that Sullivan Bluth 

have done or Disney themselves for 

that matter. 

The backgrounds are exquisite and 

even though they are highly detailed. 

they don't detract anything away from 

the character sprites. The animation is 

top-notch stuff and it's no wonder that 

Gremlin Ireland have taken so long 

over Litil Distil, 

Animation isn't the quickest thing 

to do in the world and the creators 

have taken care of every little 

detail, including drawing every 

single wall in the 3D maze individ• 

ually. 

Although the graphics are 

undoubtedly the game's best feature, 

Litil Distil does have a whole host of 

others, like the fact that it 

is riddled with 

humour all 

the w a y 

through the 

adventure. 

The top quality gags look as 

though they've been nicked from an 

episode of Bugs Bunny, Mutt gets 

stabbed by spikes, falls down holes and 

fire shoots out of the floor and burns 

our hapless hero, but he still gives that 

shake of his cartoon head, jumps up 

and gets on with his perilous quest - 

that is until his life-force runs Out and 

one of the oilmelr rooms and Mutt must make his way 

across the swamp by hopping on the stepping stones 

: le 

you lose a life. The whole game is 

topped off with a full cinematic CD 

score, giving Lib! Distil just the right 

amount of atmosphere in all the right 

places. To go along with the various 

comedy moments, there is a full corn• 

pliment of - 

wacky sound effects. 

- As mentioned before, Litil Distil has 

cbeen a four r t oyears

I've seen it's going to be 

well worth waiting for, With it's gor- 

s t y l e 

geous graphics, superb soundtrack 

and the fact that it's playable, these 

make the perfect ingredients for a 

classic game.

Some older gamesplayers reading this might remember the first time Apidya raised its competing. Maybe that's just me 

shoot-'em-up head. It was heralded, at the time, as one of the best and most original being completely rubbish at 

horizontally-saolling blasters you could get for your Amiga s h o o t - ' e m - u o s i For just over a 

Since then, Team 17 have waded into the computer industry wearing a pair of size termer though I shouldn't corntwelve 

Doc Martens and brought out a range of classic games including the shoot- plain too much because it will 

Gremlin's sequel to the classic 3D isometric adventure, 

released back in May, was warmly received by both the 

press and the general public. This CD32 version of the 

game isn't that much different from the original Hero , 4 

Quest 2 The only noticable change is a brand spanking 

new CD soundtrack to tantalise your ear drums while you . 

wander around the fabled land of Rhia. 

You can either use a mouse or the CD32 joypad for controlling 

your party of four heroes Both are equally good. although the extra buttons on the 

joypad tend to make things slightly easier. 

The game is relatively easy to play, but first-time adventurers might need to practise 

before attempting to complete the quest. Hero Quest 2 is divided into turns. You 

move your characters first then the Forces of Darkness respond. 

Each of your characters moves in order and there are a range of options each can 

carry out. All have an allocation of 20 action points per turn, to be used in whichever 

way you require - remembering that the more complex the action the more points it 

will take to complete 

CD32 owners will be more than happy with Grernlin's superb adventure sequel_ 

The 3D isometric graphics are spot on, the CD sound is a major improvement over the 

sonics heard in the computer version, plus it's still highly playable and incredibly 

addictive. 

Whether you're using joypad or mouse, the control method is very simple, making 

the game a lot of fun to play. Even the younger player won't have too many problems 

with it. Hero

If Team 17 have the best Amiga blaster sitting in their stables, why have they T o sum up, Apidya has gorgeous graphics, nice sound, plenty of playability, a

to time and with a fair amount of success. 

Apidya is a five level shoot-'em-tio with a distinct insect. You control a "bee

Sample 

efore you even load up your 

sampling package to record 

your sounds for your musical 

masterpiece, you need Co know 

all about the law of sampling, otherwise you 

could find yourself in a lot of trouble 

Sampling has become a massive bone of 

contention throughout the music industry, 

and within the last few years it has become 

more and more popular due to professional 

sampling machines becoming more 

affordable. 

Is sampling a legitimate source of new 

sounds or is it quite simply out and Out 

theft? This particular argument will rage on 

until the opposing parties are blue in the 

face, but as far as the future goes, sampling 

is here to stay.

The important thing is proving that you

things you can do which will satisfy any

Sample samples 

Creativity and imagination is the key when it comes to sampling something. That small vocal g snippet or musical stab 

h 

can either make or break a record. Here, in no particular order, is my top ten favourite sampling music moments. 

Sample in question 

The sample that flew up from the underground and spawned a rave generation 

The vocal oft "A Fine Day" by Opus 3 backwards! 

The beginning rift of Nirvana's 'Smells Like Teen Spirit" fused into rap record that virtually assured a chart hit 

Rickie Lee Jones babbling on about the sky and thus giving ambience to the masses 

The sampling of Annie Lennox. a master-stroke that turned the track into a massive chart smash 

Genius snippets from the cult TV comedy series, Monty Python's Flying Circus 

The girl screaming "you want it" from the film Helraiser, edited especialy for the radio 

Dennis Hopper's mad ranting and raving from Apocalypse Now 

Michael Caine's classic "Know what I mean" speech from the film Attie 

The words "Rebel Base" as uttered by Darth \fader, take on a whole new meaning

incredibly stupid to many of you, Out for 

the beginner always read the manual from 

cover to cover. It's an obvious point, but 

there are so many people who by not 

reading the manual miss an important 

'eature that they might benefit by. 

Try experimenting with sample rates. 

You don't always have to go for the 

highest quaky frequency, you can always 

get some many dirty effect by usski a much 

lower rate - plus it saves on a lot of disk 

space. 

The best sampling ram are between I Sk

all the top and bass sounds and leaves you 

with a nice middle ' sound,

TUTORIAL 

he first two parts of mis senes 

looked at most of the Amiga 

hardware and software you 

need to add titles and graphics to 

your videos and grab images from them 

But what about the video equipment itself 

- the cameras, VCRs, sound recording and 

other equipment you'll need for capturing an 

event and the additional Amiga add-ons 

you'll need to edit your raw source material. 

That's where we're headed this month. 

Obviously. youCe going to need a video 

camera so that you can record your own 

original matenal. The next time you walk 

down the main street in any major town, or 

you go to a shopping centre, take a look in 

some of the specialist electronsCS shops 

(Dixons. Currys. and the kkel 

You II see a number of video cameras on 

display, in a wide range of shapes. sizes and 

prices. all with labels pointing out their latest 

whizz-bang features. 

But what do you really need in a camera? 

Is fuzzy logic or builtin capoormng a 

necessity? In most cases I would think not 

but it isn't my place to tell you wnether a 

particular feature is necessary for your 

purposes. I'd rather let you know about 

those you'll actually need - everything else is 

icing on the cake. 

The first thing you should decide is what 

video format you want to use For many 

people this will mean choosing either VHS or 

WHS, though some people will prefer 

Video8 or Hi-El. Ultimately, which system you 

choose depends on several factors 

Your main concern will probably be image 

1 v k k K ) 8 

Itlx Handycam 

legto 

quaky II this is the case, then S-VHS or 148 

should be your choice as each offers visibly 

superior quality over their VHS or Video8 

counterparts and, as a consequence. S-VHS 

and Vocleo8 formats are more expensive. 

The type of genlock and digitiser you 

own or plan to own) also has a bearing on 

the cnoice of format, as genlocks or 

digitisers are capable of accepung the more 

sophisticated Y/C signals from SA/HS and 

Hi-8 machines. 

If you re planning on using your 

camcorder as an editing source, make sure I 

can be controlled externally via a ControiL 

port Oka tANC). because Ma is what your 

Amiga will interlace to Ina an appropriate 

editing package) to gain control over the 

camcorder s play and pause functions so 

that the appropnate video clips can be 

recalled as required. 

Efinal 

Try to get a camera with a reasonable 

zoorn lens, and macro too, so that you have 

more choice rn the shots you can take. It the 

zoom can also be operated manually so 

much the better, because the motors whKli 

drive the zoom can quickly drain a battery 

during frequent use 

Speaking of batteries, get a few spares -they 

might be expensive. Out there are times 

when a pare battery would have allowed 

you to get those brilliant shots you just 

missed when the power ran Out. 

Make sure your camera has a mains 

adaptor too, because if you power the 

camera from the mains rts unlikety you're

The out-takes 

To edit video you need at least one video source 'which could be a camcorder or a VCRI 

and a VCR to record onto. The record VCR should be capable of accurate frame 

positioning - the more accurate the better. 

Again, the choice of VCR format is up to you, and it doesn't necessarily have to be the 

same as the format of the video source, as long as they can be connected together 

successfully. For instance, you could use a Hi-8 camcorder arid an S-VHS VCR. since both 

use Y/C video signals. 

One important point to note is that the VCR must, like the camcorder, be able to be 

controlled externally - for instance via infra red remote control - because this control will 

be used during editing. 

But you can't just connect the video decks to the Amiga and start editing. You'll need

Make the investment in a high quality SCR now leusteed

going to run out of juice at a critical time. 

There are other things yeti"' need to go 

with your camera, like a good fluid-head 

tripod and maybe a shoulder-mount, but 

go and buy a specialist video magazine 

and take it from there. 

For sound reco(sbnig. try to find a 

camera which will let you plug an external 

microphone in because. lets face it, there's 

no way that the built-in camera mic can 

possibly cope with everything Mats 

thrown at It, 

Try recording an interview on a windy 

day using only a camera mic and you'll 

hear why professional camera crews 

usually use a separate mit 

- operator). land m i c 

There's no way that a camera mic can 

capture just the sound of the interviewee 

and filter out the wind noise, Oren if you 

stick a woolly sock over in 

One further point. If you can, buy a 

camera which allows you to control the 

volume level manually as well as 

autornaticaliy. and make sore you learn 

how to use this feature. 

Otherwise you'll fall foul of the built-in 

AGC lAilt0Mdb( Gain Conuol), which tries 

its best to keep me recording level constant 

at Me expense of the sound itself. 

For instance, if you were recording an 

interview and a lorry drove past or a noisy 

aeroplane flew over, then the AGC would 

reduce the recording level to take into 

account the lorry or plane. 

The result would be that the 

interviewees recorded voice would drop in 

proportion to the overall ceop in recording 

an interlace and control software of one kind or another. and true coo of such things 

ranges from several hundred pounds to several thousand, depending on the level you 

wish to edit at. 

In most cases home users won't be doing NB Of 3-machine editing, concentrating 

instead on simple cutting from source to recorder and genlocking graphics and titles. so 

one of the cheaper packages would probably suffice. 

Two-machine editing cant add wipes and fades between pictures, but it can let you 

cut out all the rubbish from your source tapes, add graphics and music and assemble a 

coherent program from a series of individual clips. 

This is probably a satisfactory compromise for those birthday, holiday and other home 

videos which won't ever be seen by anyone but you. your close friends and family. 

There are a couple of low-cost edit controllers on the market - Gold Disk"s Video 

Director is well under E200, likewise Scala's Echo EEI 00 (which also requires 

ScalaMM300 and a fairly powerful Amiga with a hard drivel. Both packages can control a

camera5, action 

level. and probably be completely swamped 

by the louder lorry or plane. 

For me, as an ex-sound recordist. AGC is a 

bog pain in the backside and tan cause no 

end of problems. 

Therefore its important that (al you can 

control the sound levels manually and Ibl you 

can plug an external microphone in so you 

can get closer to your subject 

If you are able to MP( your main sound 

source as closety as possible, the relative 

balance between it and the background 

Sound will be much better - and the 

resulting recordings will be far more 

audible

There are times when even the best 

cameras cant cope property with the 

prevaltrog lighting conditions (unless 

you've got an Infrared night-vision 

camera, of course!). 

Most modern cameras use CCD 

devices. which provide better lighting 

pidc•up than the tubes older cameras 

were based on. Although many cameras have 

lighting gain switches to boost the brightness 

of a low-light image. Mrs boosting also 

enhances the inherent noise in the image. 

making it appear more grainy. 

The solution is to add extra lighting, where 

circumstances allow, so that the prcure 

quality remains as high as possible It isn't 

always necessary to buy specialised lights 

though. because depending on where, and

requirements 

what you are shooting it might be possible to 

use lighting which is at hand. For instance, 

use an Angiepoise or table lamp to improve 

the lighting, switch on the room lights, or 

even just use a sheet el newspaper as a

Wntrol-L camcorder or VCR as source and an infra red-equipped VCR for editing. By 

defining a series of clips which you wish to copy from the source to Me editor, the whole 

process can be organised fairly simply, if you have the right video equipment. 

Obviously, each program has different features and there's no room for reviews 

here, so you'll have to look elsewhere for more details - and for other editing packages - 

but as a good start for your research check out Video Director and, if possible, 

Scala Echo. Other editing solutions include KRP's Video 20 series, VideoPilot 330 and 

SynuonK's Eckman 

Of course, an edit controller isn't strictly necessary, and you can do simple editing by 

hand using only the play, pause and record buttons on the video machines. However, 

this is a very rough and ready method and there's no way you're going to get accurate 

edits this way. though as a cheap and nasty method it's hard to beat. 

tio :0 improve the 

lighting, but there are also times 

when proper lighting is an absolute must, 

whether for practical or artistrc purposes. 

If you cannot hire light like most video 

equipment, lights are often available for hire 

focally if you make a few 

engumest then you'll 

have to buy some. 

Good lights cost a lot of 

roortey, so before you take the 

plunge take a trip to a large 

hardware store and see what kind of 

halogen lamps they have on offer 

say halogen because they 

provide a lot of light whrie 

being compact in size, 

and you might 

decide that to 

save money you 

can improvise a so 

of fights for all but 

those special 

occasions when it 

wouldn't do to look like 

you're using makeshift lighting 

But for home shooting. animation or what 

have you, such lighting wM usually suffice. 

Always remember that electricity can be 

deadly, and if you're not sure what 

you're doing, bod someone who 

does who can either advise you 

or fix the lights up for you.

There s not much I can tell you here 

except that good video equipment 

doesn't come cheap and there's seldom 

such a thing as a bargain when buying 

edit-capable VCRs and camcorders. If 

you're buying from scratch, expect to 

shell out at least E2000 on all the bits 

and pieces

OCTOBER 1994

ast month we were looking at a 

routine that can be incorporated into 

any macro that needs to make unit 

conversion changes (eg lbs to kilos( in 

blocks of text 

The idea was to use a loop to search for 

particular combinations. and whenever a 

number was found at the rill location we set j to 

1+1 and compared the fth word with the units 

parameter. After doing any conversions 

necessary. the next iteration of the loop was 

performed 

I said that an improvement could be made 

arid in case you're still wondering what it is, just 

consider the case where the wordS_j units test is 

successful. 

The next iteration of the loop will then atways 

be pointless because the next wordS i cannot be 

a number (since wordS.i or that iteration will be 

word SI of the previous iteration and this 

matched the specified units stnnigi_ 

This means that we can reduce the work that 

the routine has to do by eliminating those 

pointless loop iterations. This is done by 

Incrementing i whenever a units match is found• 

This simple change produces the Modifyglockt) 

procedure shown in listing 1 There are faster 

ways of doing the job but to be hmest when 

this particular routine was being written speed 

was not the only concern - flexibility and reusability 

were also high on the agenda. 

Notice that ModifyBlockft doesn't get involved 

with any inter-program communication itself. 

This is deliberate and is done to ensure the 

generality, and therefore the reusability, of the 

procedure 

The idea is that you should collect the text 

from the program in question, do any 

modifications in as application independent way 

as possible'. and then send the replacement text 

back to the Main program 

A typical paragraph-oriented use can be seen

In this case 'extract' pulls in the text (notice that 

the paragraph returned in Affexc's results 

variable is passed directly to the Modify8tockt/ 

procedure as a parameter'. 

The 'delete command removes the original 

text, and type puts the new text in place AN 

easy enough to do but as mentioned, the key 

point is that the Modify8lockft routine is pure 

ARecx code - It doesn't rely on any product 

,specific interface commands_ 

This brings us to an important general point 

Mem functions are the building blocks of all 

larger Affexx programs and programmers use 

them in me same way as the electrical engineer 

might use integrated circuit chips leleCtronic 

components pre-designed to do a particular job) 

to build an electronic °Kurt 

A function will perform an operation (perhaps 

make a cakulation or, as in the case of our 

Modify8lockij routine, make alterations to 

selected text block items) and may Mso return a 

value to the program which called it_ 

To use the example routine you supply the 

text block, the two units strings and a 

conversion factor. ARexx evaluates the righthand 

side of the expression by making a call to 

the ModifyBlockll function using the parameters 

supplied. 

It then assigns the function's return value to 

whatever variable is provided on the left-hand 

Side of the expression that uses the function_ 

Wnuen properly, a function should behave 

just like a black box - Me function user provides 

some input (known as the function's parameters 

or arguments' and the function carries out its 

job, possibly returning some information to the 

To be honest, the user of the function 

doesn't even need to know how the function 

works - they jest have to know what the 

function does, what information must be 

supplied, and the significance of the results 

produced 

You'll notice that I've tended to call the 

ModrlyBlocki) routine a - 

procedure 

a function This is to emphasue the fact that I've 

rused a the t ARexx h e Procedure r instruction at the 

tstart of h my afunction n definition. 

The purpose of this is to force ARexx to 

regard all the vanables used within the function 

as being local to the Modify1:10ock() routine. 

If_ when you write a function, you use the 

Procedure keyword and pass all the data 

required by the function as function arguments 

rather than use global variables, 1 e variables 

that are visible throughout the program, then 

you'll end up with routines that can be easily 

extracted and re-used. 

Needless to say, these types of ideas become 

more and more important as your AReur scnots 

become largeri

Graphics has been in Operation for the 

last four years producing various 

Ames of work for a whole range of clientele but, 

siPerrfically, the video market. 

Run by Simon Hough_ a 21 year old 

entrepreneur and commercial artist, the business 

Vs gradually climbed up the ranks from a 

struggling beginner to a relatively successful and 

, 

H Based at his home in Birmingham IHough 

xlieves p that an office for a small operation such 

iis 

his is a waste of money'. Simon has been 

xavering e away on his two Amiga 4000s

He first staled dabbling on 30 at the age of

gWith 

the success boosting his cortiderice. he 

began a to peddle his wares at local video 

production z studios. Hough secured several deals 

clue i to his low prices when compared to the 

competition. n 

e Due to his association with Man Black Simon 

was p approached in mid 93 by Melvyn Bragg of 

the r South Bank Show who wanted some 

animation o done for a new series called Opening 

Shot v 

i The sequence they were asked to do was a 

visualisation d of a section in Terry Prachett s book.

Watch your back

'biggest A mistake you can ever do is to tell people that you use an Amiga You go to the potential

customer and tell him you use an Amiga and they'll say • Oh, my son uses one of those for games.

r Simon continues, - they expect a SikOn Graphics machine or a Pentium PC I thought that kind of 

d 

attitude was a rumour when I first started out but it's actual fact 

o He believes that if Commodore are ever to break their games-only image, its going to take a serious

As for those of us who with to use the Amiga for something other than games.. Hough has these 

iwords 

of advice: " For those people trying to start out. don't get depressed when people put you 

down Watch out for indrviduals trying to exploit you and watch your back:

7:30ap 

for a large freezer manufacturer and for Spender 

speakers who have asked him to design what 

wifi appear on the video walls at an up-andcorning 

show. 

Of course, Hough intends to use the Amiga 

exclusively for any graphics operations 

undertaken. He is adamant that Amiga is the 

best machine for the job: 'software support is 

amazing. Lightwave. Imagine it goes 

on - 

Various forays in to the PC world and 

Windows have left him cold 1 don't want to

ost of us, given the chance, like 

spending a few bob but the chanCes 

are that we never have quite enough 

of the green stuff floating around to buy 

everything we want 

Software is a typical case so this month I 

Thought d look at some of the midi/music PO 

and shareware offerings that are available. I've 

chosen the SeaSoft Computing library simply 

because they seem to provide more music-related 

offerings than most other Iibraries. 

With SeaSoft's strong MED/OctaMED 

Connections it's not surprising that a great many 

MED/OctaMED related casks are available. 

Total Irrelevance, the disk magazine from 

MUG (MED Users Group) costs EZ,50 and is 

avorth looking at since it always has an 

nteresting selection of articles. 

If you want a taste of what it is like then you 

can in fact get the best of the 1993 issues on a 

three disk set for E4.50. Other MUG related 

offenngs include the Friends of Paula volumes 

one to four, which are modules for use with 

OctaMED. Making Traits Volume one, Musicaily 

Challenged. and Microcraft Volumes one to four 

There are also Drurnkit samples Volumes one 

and two, Bass Sounds, and Brass & Woodwind 

FF sample disks available, again courtesy of 

MUG. 

Of course IFF samples are found no abundance 

nroughout the public domain and as well as the 

'ANIMA sources, such as the disks just 

mentioned, you can also create your civet using 

sound sampler. 

YOu Can also borrow' samples from PD games 

And demos or other legitimate sources pots of 

magazine disks will include sound samples that 

can be used for your own purposes(. 

Finding such samples is easy enough if you 

only have a few directories on the disk - 

especially if the sampies have been given obvious 

names such as crashill, bang snd or 

wallop.EISVX, 

Locating them when the samples have less 

inturtive names leg DX13021 can be much haider, 

especially if the disk has many nested directories. 

More to the point a may take a lot of time to 

look at every file in every directory' 

The result of course is that all too often you 

can miss potentially useful sound samples lust 

because they are not easy to identify Fortunately 

there's a nice easy solution - we automate 

hing and let the Amiga do all the hard

You II also find plenty of other Midi/Muse items fl oating around the 

SeaSoft library. X-Beat Professional for instance is a particularly good 

shareware drum sequencer. 

If you want to team more about Midi then there is a Midi tutorial 

disk written by Kevan and GarreM Craft that's worth looking at. and 

the same authors have also produced a Mtge selection of Music X and 

Amiga/PC Midi files that are available at 115 per set with a MidKraft 

demo disk available for El SOIL 

In addition to this. SeaSoft also distribute the AM/FM disk-based 

music magazine which now has about 18 issues under its belt. A 

similar number of NNFM sample disks are also available along with a 

•miety of other disks containing Midi songs, larger music utilities etc. 

There are of course loads of ready-made songs available for use 

with the freely distributable OctaMEDPlayer module player utilty. A

is typical of 

the (high) 

standard of 

ready-made 

music avail. 

able. It's a 

pity you 

can't hoar St 

playing! 

If you are searching a high capacity hard Chi 

partition or a floppy with many files ana rested 

directories, the program may take a moue co nom 

to locate the required information DA e nil Pe a 

icit quicker than Other methods/ 

You ran, incidentally. cancel the search 

operation at any time Dy hang coraal-C or 

control-D. If you need a minimal copy of the 

programs finangs just rreirect ire screen Output 

to a disk tie, or to the PET device 

disk called Barney - Warta n AN provides a good example of the 

quality available and is Just one at the may song collections available 

nowadays. 

In general the disk magazines cost 12 50 per disk and normal 

PO/shareware utility and sample disks El SO fan extra E0.50 for 

postage and packing needs to be tagged on to each order). 

With samples. Midi files, disk mag and tutorial-type disks you II 

usually encounter few problems in using the disks but, as with all 

PE/shareware stuff, not all utility programs will work with all Arnigas. 

X-Beat Professional VI .0. for example, does not run on my A40001 

You'll find the SeaSoft ads in most issues of Amiga Computing and 

obviously the best idea is to give them a call before ordering, lust to 

Confirm that a particular utility will actually run on your machine

e all have favourite musicard. dont We 7 

In pubs and at colleges al over me 

country, indeed all over the world, 

common ground is formed by the sort of music 

we are into, the sort of sports we like arid the soni 

of computers we bite. 

The Net is Just an extension of those little items 

of small talk that we use in real fife, so its only 

fitting that the Net should have places where you 

can talk k'ittpUi MUSIC 

In your search for bits and bobs about your 

favourite musicians, your first point ol call should 

be Nchie. Do an Archie search using your 

favourite musician or type of music as the 

keyword. 

Thu s will lead you to a few sites mat carry 

information or pictures of your fave raves. To get 

you going still further, here's a list of thongs I've 

found uselut 

• ElectronkAnductrial Musk Tone List - A 

list o l 0er:trot it magazines based ors 

efectrotindustrial music. You can obtain the list 

using anonymous Fri 

, to: 

using the directory path: 

.tos 

•and download the file 

etectron.zin 

'Library/Esc/NMI 

and there you are. A whole list of sources about 

this type o f m usic 

• CyberSieeze The sleaze guide used to be 

available from rrity.com. but this is now called 

metaversecom because the sysop used to work 

for MN but got the sack. so MTV wont allow him 

to use the domain name Send a message to: 

11.1 adaninetriericcoa 111 

asking to sus( rite to the cybersleaze magazine, or 

better yet why not cop it via Mosaic at the 

metaverse StAllAtr server? 

• Techno/Rave Gopher - Although for the last 

few days this service has been offline, the Rave 

gopher is a good source of pictures and info 

about the Rave scene in both the US and Ilk. Get 

it by using Gopher to go to.

• Mintosic Gopher - Another music gopher is 

at 

mitilisic.fertis.sdu 

• Musk A,chlves - One of the very nest music 

archives is via anonoymous Ft? 4 

, 

ttp.ump.ed• 

although you may find its Lao busy to get on once 

the USA wakes up. Its a very popular site and is 

often swamped 

You might also like to try 

ftu• ssmot SE ' 1 1

which is where lip tiwpedu get teen p4ctuies• and 

in fact Mrs is where thiS issue's pictures come from. 

There's hundreds, so why not go and check them 

out for your favourite artists? 

Also, there is a superb list of music trivia at the 

excellent Rutgers Gopher site 

• 

geortz.roloortifily 

- 

, 

t 

which is a place to be recommended for just tabout 

any Net surfing you might have in mind, as they - 

1 

have links with a number of other interesting sites 

• 

What is there is pretty interesting too, without " the 

need fix you to explore further 

t 

t 

. I would also recommend WM, and MIT Gopher i 

site 

e 

r 

otts.sit.tdo 

• 

which also has some great music matenal Quartz, 

RTFM and Spies are my favourite Internet sites of all 

of them 

Along with the WELL Gopher, these are the 

places I visit most often on the Net, as they provide 

huge resourtes of infoonatiOn but also provide 

useful links with similar sources, including in most 

cases each other.

lit clone screen wipes before I know, but 

easy to employ screen transitions, like a 

piece of lead pipe in your pocket in a 

dark alley, are comforting to have around. 

These ideas are from J Haughey. who has 

supplied us with three wipe PROCs to get us going 

Id be interested to see some more of this type of 

PROC. as its nice to have a little library of useful 

obis, especially ones which you use a lot_ 

So here we have mree screen wipes, and this is 

number one. To demonstrate the PROC. we have 

to load a screen 

. 

Wipt1.ARDS 

Laid 1 ff 'df0asnyscreee,0 

Then we need to activate the PRO( 

_kfi ll 

E 

which well do like so lf0,1 for the sake of argument 

Later down the program ,41 we define the PROC. 

which as in all Amos programs can be anywhere 

- 

Procedure ..040E11$(1,01,C01 

How do you use the procedure? Well the format is 

hke so: _LEADE I ISCR,DI,C0I, where SCR equah the 

number or the screen you want the effect to 

happen, and you have to make sure that (he screen 

exists 

DI equals the effect type for which you can use 

the numbers I to 51 and CO equals the ink colour 

you wish the screen to wipe to. 

So having set the parameters of the wipe and 

called it. we have to code the wipe, which in this 

case goes like this Set up the screen: 

Screen SIN 

SIX.Scrten OfdthfS00-1 : SI I .Scre e t leiglatISCU -1 

lok C O

The wipe is a simple matter of drawing lines to the 

screen in the ink colour specified. Simple arid looks 

good on screen, so at gets the thumbs up from 

me. Here is another one which takes the wipe

inding is important. A brilliantly laid out 

document ran be ruined by unsuitable 

binding, Obvious example - a document 

which is intended for reference. where readers 

are going to want the document to remain open 

while using both of their hands to follow 

inStfloCliOnS. 

Use a binding that won't let the documeni 

remain open and you will annoy your readers. So 

you have to choose a suitable binding 

The cheapest method of binding rs called We-- 

stabbing You place the pages in order. one on 

top of the other, then drive wire staples Itwough 

the left-hand side. 

Mhough cheap and easy, it is a crude method 

which does not allow the document to be opened 

easily, nor to remain open Only use this method 

if, because of time or costs, there really is no other 

option. 

Ratherthan side-stab your document it's better 

to use plastic grip binders which cost a Wile more 

than staples but are just as easy. Most big 

stanoners sell them. 

However, do keep in mind that like sidestabbing, 

plastic gnp binders do not allow 

documents to be opened easily. not to stay open, 

plus there is the added disadvantage that if 

opened very guickty the grip may well fly off at 

great speed 

The most widespread method of bending and 

also one of the least costly methods is called 

saddle-stitch Here, pairs of pages are printed 

together on the same sheet NI the sheets are 

collated, folded in half, and then they are either 

stitched or wire-stapled together down the fold. 

Provided they do not contain too many pages. 

with a bit of pressure down the fold saddlestitched 

documents can usually be opened flat 

and persuaded to remain open at a certain page 

The smaller the format, the hover pages you 

Can have before the fold gets the upper hand. 

While a 48-page. A4 format saddle-stitched 

document may be persuaded to remain open, an 

A5 format document of that size would want to 

close INK Isaac Newton It you want to know 

why.I 

For binding purposes, the pairs of pages have 

to be printed in a certain order The exact layout 

of the pages depends on how many pages fit on 

to the sheet, but the rule of thumb is that the 

page numbers of "facing" pages always add up to 

one more page than there is in the document. 

So for a four-page document, page one and 

four (=five) are a pair IPage I being the covert, 

and page two and three (=fivel are a pair. If you 

are providing your artwork to the printers as 

single pages, then let the printers worry about 

this, but do ensure that your pagination Ipage 

numbeiingI is correct 

Keep in mind that saddle-stitched documents 

have to be made up of multiples of four pages

DESIGI 

tamplete Deflation 

Perfect binding is the neatest method. It is how this magazine is bound Single pages - or single sheets 

of eight or 16 pages folded in a special way Icalled sectionsI. later sliced along the folds - are clamped 

tightly together and a thin layer of glue is applied along the spine. 

Perfect binding costs a bit more than saddle-stitched, but the results are much neater, it is possible 

to - 

out br but on the whole perfect binding is good for anything over 32 pages that doesn't have to lie flat 

ea and remain open.

Hit of a bind 

You can't have a nine-page document saddle 

stitched, it would have to have tnree blank pages 

to make it I / 

Most printers prefer to work in multiples of 

eight so think about this before you design and 

lay out your document. 

Saddle-stitched documents will also need 

trimming down the non-stitched length, as the 

pages in the centre will poke out further than 

those nearer the covers. 

Bear this in mind when designing your pages. 

It depends on the thickness of the paper, but in a 

64-page (32-sheet) document the trim can be as 

much as 5mm left and right with standard 80 

gsm boot paper. 

And that size - 64 pages - is about as big as 

you can go with saddle-stitch without getbng an 

ugly bulge at the fold. You may be able to push it 

to 96 pages 148 sheets) if the paper rsn t too 

thick, but any bigger than this and you'll either 

have to have the document stitched in sections 

and use the cover to bind the sections 'hardback 

books art' riortild.ly txX, 

,, cheap), or choose another method of binding 

; • ; 

n Wire o or plastic t binding is very popular these 

days Many offices have a machine for binding 

reports and so on in this way Holes are punched 

along the left-hand edge of sheets and a wire or 

plastic clasp is meshed into the holes For 

documents that need to lie flat wire or plastic 

binding is perfect. 

The main disadvantage. apart from the cost if 

you use wire (even more for plastic-coated wire). 

is that documents bound in this way are not easy 

to store because the binding rswidev than the 

publication 

Also, packed on to a bookshelf, wire bindings 

can get entwined. A solution to this problem is a 

special type of cover which almost completely 

covers the wires, but because of the special 

equipment needed, this is among the most 

expensive methods of binding. 

Lastly. there are nng binders. Two or four 

holes are punched down the left-hand side of 

pages, and these are then threaded on to a 

Fitting in the ring binder 

It is simple, but the ring binders themselves 

can be expenwe They don't get much cheaper 

than about 1.2 each unless you buy in vast 

quantities Elut of your document needs to be 

regularly updated, and/or needs to lie flat and 

stay open. ring binders are the best solution 

The only disadvantage, apart from cost, is that 

the pages can wear at the holes if the document 

is used regularly. If you do choose ring binders, 

choose ones that suit the size of the document - 

there's nothing worse than having half-a-dozen 

pages flapping about in a binder designed to 

take hundreds

3 Steps to 

Frame Grabbing 

r'ombo 

1. Capture your picture 

2. Convert it 

3. Use it 

ROMBO Productions Limited, 

2B Young Square, 

Brucefield Industrial Park, 

Livingston, Scotland. EH54 9BX. 

Frame grabbing couldn't be simpler and more 

satisfying and is probably the best function that you 

can add to your Commodore AMIGA. 

The Vidi AMIGA range has been developed to meet 

this requirement at an affordable price and an 

unequalled performance level. No matter what your 

needs are, from hobbyist to professional, there is a 

Vidi to fit the bill. 

The Vidi AMIGA helps you place pictures within 

publications, animate or just have fun with digitised 

images. Connection couldn't be quicker and simpler. 

They're designed to exploit your creativity and 

imagination! 

Vidi AMIGA 12 

Excellent value 12-bit digitiser, captures colour HAM 

pictures in less than 1 second. Delivers good quality 

grabs from composite or S-Video sources. Minimum 

recommended system: A500 with 1MB RAM. 

Only £99.95 

Vidi AMIGA 12RT 

A superb real time (fast scan) digitiser, grabs 24-bit 

images in 1/50th of a second. Similar to the Vidi 12 

but with many additional features and higher quality 

output. Vidi 12RT can be upgraded to the Vidi 24RT. 

Minimum recommended system: Al200 with 2MB 

RAM. 

Only £199 

Vidi AMIGA 24RT 

Identical to the Vidi 12RT but with more video RAM. 

Can grab in formats up to 24-bit and produce full 

overscan images in HiRes interlace. Professional 

quality capture. Minimum recommended system: 

Al200 with 2MB RAM. 

Only £299 

All Vidi digitisers have common built-in features such 

as sequence editing and playback, essential for 

animation and sophisticated image processing 

software. All have composite and S-video inputs and 

are fully AGA compatible. 

The Vidi AMIGA range is available from your 

authorised reseller or from ROMBO.
