After three months of fighting the Vikings up north, Mike and I
made our way back to find AmoNER waiting for his next release. Yes,
we were gone for quite a long time, but we are back now. With all the
material sent to us, the next disk should be a snap.
This issue is divided into two disks because of the lack of space for
the not-so-new AMOS 3D Demo. We digress . . . Let's go over this issue's
programs:
First, we have a simple intro which was first displayed upon booting
the disk. It is a simple (simple minded, too) example of a scrolling
routine by Michael Cox. Also, you can now sleep at night since you finally
know what AmoNER means! Hip hip hooray!
Second, we have a small "Screen Offset" scrolly routine by Gal-on.
Since a lot of programs are used to create AmoNER, we decided to include
the (©)copyright lines of those packages - they really do deserve to be
mentioned.
Both routines are good study material for beginners. Use them if you
want.
Next, is a Tiny-Hack (which is the name we use for programs under 10k)
from Sweden. The coder is, using his expression, "The silly game writer"
Niklas Konstenius. A cute game. Again, a good hack to kill some time with
and to use as study material.
For those foolhardy people who have not bought the AMOS Compiler
yet, Mike reviewed the package from the moment of receiving till the
moment of running. Maybe this will remove any remaining doubts
in your mind . . .
And last, but not least . . .
This disk's Highlight is the brand, spanking-old demo of AMOS 3D by
Voodoo software. This is the original demo written to display
AMOS 3D capabilities to the world, but without the "Only for 39.99$"
messages written all over. The demo comes on the second disk called
"AmoNER004 Extras". It should be compressed with DMS as "AMONER4E.DMS".
Just boot from the disk and it will run the demo over and over again.
Oh, and do not forget that this demo is way over a year old. We hope to
receive newer demos soon.
So, Till next time -
Gal-on Broner - Editor.
