Printing
W* researched the colour printer market at great depth to find a colour printer good anough to cope with Amiga's powerful output, yet ait an affordable price.
W<r found the perfect printer in the KX - P2I BO and KX - PI 1 21 quiet printer.
We then considered that if you were going to buy- a Panasonic printer you would probably need a quality word processif^g package m use with it W? Found that too, with WordwonJV yet ac a
retail price of £.\29 99 we thought that might he a iinle too expensive on top of yowr printer purchase! So together with Panasonic we decided to give a copy of 'Wiordworth' free with every
Panasonic- pnntcr How's that for added value?
*WORDWORTH AG A COMPLETELY FREE!

processor For AMIGA computers. Wordwonh is undoubtedly the ultimate word / docu-
nitfl processor for the full range of AMIGA computers The graphical ntCUira of

OWNERS of A5LMhh looking to move on to
32-bit Amiga technology on now
upgrade their existing machines to the
latest standard for around half the cost of
.m A1 200.
The low-cost option comes from US
firm Copperhead Technologies (01 0 l 518
34b 38^4), a company thnt specialises in
buying, selling and trading second -hand
Amiga hardware.
Their AG A Upgrade Kit comes with
everything needed to transform an ARK!
mto a PA L-com pat tble A 1 2CH.J, i ne hiding
a replacement motherboard with a 60020
processor, Ksckstart 3, 2Mb of RAM and
IDE hard drive controller.
An adaptor supplied in the pack
enables the ASCliTs keyboard to be con-
nected on to the boards while the
machined existing internsl disk drive and
power supply can also be used.
The mater claims that even users with-
out any electronics experience should be
able to complete the project within an
hour,, although they warn that a minor
case modiBcation in needed.
This involves cutting away the plastic
columns that separate the ports on the
back of the A 500 case and a small part of
the plastic Lip that sticks up on the Inside
Once the board has been fitted the
mavhme is claimed to operate exactly the
same as other A 1200s and has Lhe PCM-
CIA slnt and trap -door found or that
model.
Copperhead Technologies do not have
a British distributor, but they can supply
by post. The kit costs §225 (about £1 49)
plus postage,

Playing safe with
games fact sheet
A CHARITY funded by the
Government to develop and promote
the herd technology tor learning has
drawn up a fact sheet aimed at parents
of children who play computer and
video ga mes,
The National Council for
E d u i:a t i on a I Techno logy re p o r 1 on
recent research carried out in the US
on the effects of playing computer
games..
It comes after media reports earlier
this year alleging some games could
cause epilepsy and anti-social
behaviour, and includes advice from
the British Epileptic Association.
According tes the NCET, games
offer several benefits to help children
learn, and providing they are not
played too much and are only one of
the child's activities the dangers are
limited.
Advice is given to combat the possi-
bility of any health hazards while fur-
ther research is carried out and a
checklist is provided to test whether
children are addicted to games.
The report says that children
should sit at least two feet from the
screen in a well lit room and avoid
playing while tired.
Other recommendations are that
parents should help their children
choose programs with an educational
value, ensure games do not contain
violence and encourage playing in
groups.
They should talk to children about
what happens in the software and use
games as a starting point for other
activities such as painting, drawing,
acting or storytelling.
"There has been a lol of
controversy around specific cases
pointing to the addictive effect
these games can have on young peo-
ple, w said NCET spokeswoman Ann
Logan,
"Parents ought to be informed of
the dangers and the possible benefits
to children."

AMIGA users wanting to run DOS-based
software on their computer are targeted
for a low cost program being sold in
Britain by Meridian Software Distribution
(081-5+3 3500),
The firm claim that PC Task enables
files to be transferred between Amigos and
PCs,, contains support for high density
floppy drives and up to two floppy and
hard drives.
U has support for MDA, CGA, EGA
and VGA emulation and can display up to
256 colours on screen. Speed is related to
that of Amiga running the program.
Experts warn, however, that although
the £49.95 software will allow some PC
Products to be used with any Amiga,
Windows applications are unlikely to be
Compatible.

HMV open world's largest games store
HMV have juf.t opened the world's bigg^i computer and video
games store 1 and claim it offers garms players thy largest range of
leisure software any where.
It has been named Level One and can be found on the hist floor
of the firm's flagship store at 1 50 Oxford Street, London,
Customers enter through a futuristic tunnel which opens into a
huge floor featuring surround sound, a video games challenge
area and mood-altering lights.
The atmosphere of the store changes depending on the time
and day of the week.
During mid-week lunch tiroes, for example, the mood is soft
and relaxing but on Saturdays when younger boxers visit the
environment is "fast, brash and hypnotic." Customers are able to
play latest games in a challenge area where up to four teams -
eight players in all - can compete against each other simultane-
ously.
It is expected that around 20U major contests will be
held every year, with each lasting between two and four hours.
Anyone can play and then* am I -shirt prizes for winners.
"Level One offers the greatest choice in the most fantastic retail
environment/’ says David Terri LI, the company's marketing
director. J, lt underlines HMVs commitment to this expanding
market and clearly signals our intent h> become the UK's premier
games retailer."
The company plan to have games departments in more than 10
stones - nearly half their chain - by the end of the year.
Thermal transfer for Amiga
AH AGG R ESS! VE LY-pdwd thermal transfer printer tan now be used with the
Amiga to produce colour output on paper, transparency film of T-shirt transfer
paper.
The 1 Primera Colour Printer has a resolution of 203 dots par inch and although
it is intended for use with graphics applications. Ascii texl can also be printed.
The S995 machine needs at least 2Mb of memory and □ free driver is available
Irom Jls American makers, Fargo Electronics {010 1 612 941 9470).
The Introduction of an Amiga driver is part ot our continuing efforts to bring
high qua lily low-cost thermal colour printing to a much wider user base/ said a
Fargo spokesman,
“We are excited to make this advanced colour printing technology available to
such a highly graph ica-tniensive market."
Fargo are trying to set up British distribution through at least one dealer.
Speedy storage

PAST intern id hard drives are now available for
A 600 Lind A 1200 computers from Manchester
based Siren Software (063-724 7572}.

■ NEWS
T he latest World of Commodore
Amiga show in Pasadena r
California helped boost ihi-
spirits of a depres^d American A m jga
market
After news that a number of well-
known Coin mod ore engineers had
defected to companies such as 3 DO and
Silicon Graphics following the lay-offs of
many of their compatriots, many of the
attendees wondered whal Commodore
would have left to talk about in their
keynote speech.
What Commodore talked about was a
stripped down, "streamlined'” organisa-
tion that would be abfe to make a profit
in thf current competitive market
Commodore US President Jim Dionne
wryly joked that Commodore had "led
the way 1 " by announcing huge losses and
company restructuring before Apple and
Denny Atkin brings the latest news
on Commodore’s changing
fortunes in America
IBM,
Some projects would be offered to
other developers for licensing in the
hopes that they'd he brought to market
by other companies This includes the
DSP board for the A4OG0, which is one
of many projects that Commodore cur-
rently have nobody working on, and I he
AG A de-interlacer board.
Commodore s already complete net-
working software, Ethernet adaptor, and
multiport serial board are also available
for licensing. They 3 tan talked of releas-
ing CD32 in the US at the Spring CES
next year - ii won't be competing w ith
the Jaguar or 3DO this Christmas here in
the Stales.
Lew Eggebrecht, always a font of
information, did have some good news.
The next-generation AAA chip set is in
first-silicon for testing, and should be
available as planned in mid -3 944,
Engineers have the test chip set display-
ing true-colour 24 -bit screens and blit-
ting objects with its new high-speed
blitter.
An interesting - and unconfirmed -
rumour was that the first AAA machine
would use the same case, processor ca rd,
anti slot riser as the A4DQ0, mean mg that
you could upgrade the A4t!i0n to AAA
by Simply replacing the motherboard.
When 1 asked a Commodore engineer
about this, he said it ivas a possibility.
Al] in all, she news wasn't great -
many projects people were excited
about are on the back burner - but it
was reassuring. Commodore were very
straightforward about their current %itu-
d Hon, and Dionne's outlining of the
company's game plan showed that the
company knows that it's going to take
massive sales of LD32 to gel back on its
feet in the US*
Tioni RESIGiua-
What show goers didn't know,
though, was that as Dionne was outlin-
ing the company's future, he was plan-
ning Ins own future away from
Commodore. Soon a Her the show ended
it was confirmed that |im Dionne bad
announced his resignation at the dealer
meeting held at the IV OCA show ! ,
Jeff Stilley will move in as the new
General Manager of Commodore US,
and the position of president won ' 1 he
filled,
Soft-Logik's FageStream 3.U was a
tug crowd -pleader. Although it was still
a couple of months I rum shipping, the
program Was coming together nicety by
the show. It now sports a user-interface
that's a perfect model of the Amiga
Style 1 Guide, has lid I AG A support, and
finally shows bitmapped pictures in full
colour
It exports formats as well as import-
ing them. Even more Impressive is the
typography support, which easily rivals
that of PC and Macintosh programs
surh as PageMaker 5 and Quark X Press,
Everything from long-document pub-
lish ing features to smart quotes and
automatic ligatures is there.
Creating ARoxx nut-ms to automate
your publishing couldn't he easier - just
turn on Reco rd , perform a series of
macros, and turn Record back off.
You've now got an AKexx macro that's
ready io be run or added to. Company
reps said they were hoping to ship the
program in mid -November. Jim Drew
was tfmn? representing Utilities
Unlimited, and the software support for
Ins Emplant board has seen significant
improvements since 1 reviewed it in
these pages.
Emplant 3.15 now supports 24-bit
video cards (KetiiiEi and Picasso at the
moment, with EGS and other boards
coming soon) and stereo sound under
System 7,x r as well as a host of minor
improvement*.
Coming in the next version is "32-bit
clean" support, which will let it work on
systems with no MML" and allow you to
devote more of your Amiga's memory to
Emplant.
Drew says the nexl module for
Emplant will be the IBM emulator,
although that wasn't shown. Strangely r
an Apple II emulator was!
ACCELERATOR
CVP introduced the Turbo+
Ferformance Series 1L an upgraded ver-
sion id their accelerator board for the
A12d0 that now sports a full 6h030 (as
opposed to an EC03QJ running at
SOM Hz. It also has an option connector
for further expansion, and the first thing
provided for that will be the A 1291 SCSI
module.
Other products cm display included
the first US shown ng of CD32, a number
of graphics boards that l won't bother
describing since they all originated
on your side of I be Pond, a l2bMb RAM
Card for Zorro HI machines from
DKB software, and many products for
Video Toaster users, who now make
up a large portion of the US Amiga mar-
ket.
In retrospect, the Pasadena show ivas
a sign of a shrinking, changing US
Amiga market. But happily, it didn't
seem to be the last hurrah.
When is a toaster not a toaster?
When It's a product from Warm and Fuzzy Logic called
Ughftam This is a small box that plugs into the Amiga's jparallel
port and allows it to run Ihe Video Toaster software - including
LightWave 30, the rendering software that’s so good that ifs
been used to create special effects lor Babylon 5 and Steven
Spielberg's SeaGuest DSV.
Normally the sollware won'! work without a Toaster mslailed,
bul Lightravs emulates all ihe Toaster functions that LighlWave
looks for,
Not only does this mean lhat North American users can buy
extra Amigas to use as rendering workstation bul, more signifi-
cantly for Ihis audience, it mean® you can run UghtWgue 3D cut
a PAL Amiga! Europe is no longer shut out irom using Ihe
Amiga's premier rendering soFtware
UghtravE is more ihgn a dongle, though. The software also
supports rendering directly to 24 -bit cards such as Retina,
Gpafvi&ion. DC TV, Firecracker EGS, Piccolo, Picasso, and
Rainbow 3, as well as io standard Amiga and AGA screens. You
can also rander directly to GVF's ImageFX software's buffer lor
further processing
Ligbtrave requires an Artuga with Workbench 2-04 or later and
al least 512k of chip RAM and 512k of fast RAM, You'll also
need Lightwave 2.0 or 3.0, which means you'll either need to
purchase a Video Toaster board to get the sollware, or purchase
the Toaster 3.0 sollware upgrade kit from NawTefc, which costs
about $690.
There’s no telling if NewTek will make purchasing thq Toaster
3.0 software more diHicuit due to the existence of Lrghtrave: it's
currently sold through mail-order deafer? in the US and is readily
available

■ COMMENT
The recent European Computer Trade
Show was as full of bright new'
ideas as your average tin of beans.
Where has all the originality gone?
I n ihf (nr stj years of the computer games
industry's short history, we have seen thousands of
games from hundreds of software houses Covering
scores of machine formats.
Bright young things working from back bedrooms
have, over the years, vied with large companies io pro-
duce that elusive best selling game, and the results have
often been spactaaiiflr.
The proportion of competently coded hut dull and
uninspiring games has always been high, hot every year
we have two treated feu new game ideas or at least fresh
rxd ting, approaches to old favourites, Even the seemingly
played-out areas of flight simulation and sports games
have taken a new turn from tune to lime.
ThU year, however,, the progress gravy train seems to
have come off the rails, and the complete lack of real
excitement at thla autumns biggest European games
trade show became increasingly worrying as the Auriga
Com puling staff searched in vain for something which
hadn’l been done 100 times before. Platform games, yet
more flight &ims r and some ID Dungeon Master looka-
lltes were just about the only items on the menu
Unlike previous years, when games tike Populous and
Lemmings have introduced completely new genres to the
industry and spawned offshoots such as Syndicate and
Diggers, there was nothing to stop the browsing crowds
tn their tracks,
Plenty of business deals were made and a lot of very
well programmed games were on shim 1 , but the only
stand sporting an excited little crowd of admirers was the
one showing a new CP- ROM version of S he Lovers'
Guide, complete with digitised video footage. Sad, but
true.
Part of the problem could be that there's nothing new
under the sun, particularly when all the best ideas have
been used up H bn! this is a pessimistic view and I am con-*
vinced i hat there's plenty of life left in the computer
game,
>n“ 1 i ke ly reason is that the recession has forced com-
panies to play safe and thaL the development of the indus=
try as a whole makes the creation of risky new game
types more difficult,
PC games are a good case in point. Ef someone can
name a ground-breaking PC game - and we're talking
about ideas rather than graphical advances - then it must
bn cm I 'vc m issed ,
With PCs ga ining more and more ground in the games
world, the danger is l fiat big ifitros, lots of Colours, and
visually attractive games with little or
no gamvpLay could become the norm - if they haven't
already. Some PC products are very good, of course - and
Alone in the Dark 2 springs in irind - but there are w
many dull rehashes of tired old ideas in the PC world that
the gems are usually hidden under a mountain of d ross.
It is so often the case that the screen shots look shin-
ning but the game, when played, is unutterably drab, so
that players must surely become dMlIiisioned with them.
Nci amount of skimming across a 25b -col our fully
shaded landscape can make up for the fact I hat the Latest
flight siro, though nice to look at, is no more challenging or
complex in gameplay terms than FIS Interceptor, one nf
the first flight released on the Amiga,
For £40, i could pop down I he local Starving Artists
gallery and snap up a visual treat on canvas whose appeal
would last a kit longer than the sinking feeling I'd get
when realising that SuperLabido Steal thChopper VI was
nothing more than a US-vear-nkl helicopter game with
improved graphics. The fact that many more gamers don't
is one of the great consumer mysteries.
LARGE COMPANIES
A second factor which may stifle creativity is the
encroachment of large international firms. Huge Japanese
and American companies, a time ted by the CD-ROM boom
and the possibility of combining the music, film, and
games industries into one huge leisure market, are jump-
ing in with both feet, and if Hollywood is the middle
ground of movie making, these guys wilt certainly be the
same in our industry.
big money means big games with lots of graphic artists
working on them, musicians, programmers, and marketing
beds, and they all have to be paid.
The result is that as development costs for games begin
to StW there will be a strong tendency to play safe rather
than wing it with a new game concept
Com panics will r ol course, launch a now game no mat-
ter what idea it is based on if they think it will make
money,, but grey-faced, grey -suited marketing executives
don't make the same value judgements as the T-shirlcd
brigades who run many of todays smaller games houses.
While someone at, say, Bui I frog might think that a Cod
game would be a good idea, Mr Suit might not, and pre-
fer to allocate his development budget to Ninja Vixens %
Pessimism, though, should only be allowed to go so
tar. We might 5ee the industry shaping up In a way that
makes it difficult for small independent software house*
to Compete, but that doesn't mean we won't see good
games.
Electronic Arts, to take an example, have oflen been
the medium by which small groups nf coders or new
companies have reached the public. Populous, which was
developed by the then fledgling Bullfrog, was taken on
board by EA despite the fact that it was like nothing
they'd ever seer, and it sold in bucket-loads.
if this process carries cm, with the targe companies
sucking in the best of the back bedroom coders' ideas and
marketing them, then all is not lost
If, on the other hand,, games houses continue to be fas-
cinated by huge 3D intro animations and oodles of graph-
ics to the exclusion of gamepJay, we might as well all lake
up needlepoint, because there will be nothing
to get those glands ghing in the computer games market.

selected a validated volume you will be
able to display volume statistics., go to the
Volume Reorganisation menu, restore
deleted /lost files and drawers, format the
volume, un format the volume, or select a
different volume,
Otherwise you'll be presented with the
Bad Volume menu which lets you display
volume statistics, attempt to repair bad
volumes, restore files to a different vol-
ume or seieci a different drive.
If your disk is so badly corrupted that
Ihe Amiga crashes every time you insert
the floppy, you can direct Quarterback
Tools to di sable Amiga DOS by selecting
the appropriate option from the menu bar,
It may then be possible to repair the
entire disk or to restore some of its files to
another volume. The worst case scenario
is that no data can be recovered in which
ease the disk can still be used once it has
been formatted,
Anyone who has owned their Amiga
for some time will probably have noticed
that it takes longer and longer for tiles to
he loaded from or written to disk. ITiis is
true whether you use a hard or floppy
drive and will become worse as the disk
becomes full.
I he problem of decreased performance
is caused by file fragmentation. Files are
broken up into many pieces and stored in
different places on the disk.
Amiga DOS keeps track of this and puts
alt the pieces back together when you loud
a file. This technique allows the Amiga to
use every bit of a disk but has an unfortu-
nate side effect on access times,
Usually this is not loo much of a prob-
lem, but when a disk starts to fill up, files
may be split into more fragments in order
tea fit them on the disk. Because they are
more widely scattered, access times can
become tediously slow,
M
Quarterback Tools solves fragmenta-
tion problems in two ways. First, it col-
lects all the fragments of each file together
into a single contiguous area of the disk.
Nestl, it rearranges the files on the disk so
that there an? no holes in the disk space
Gne way to visualise this step is to
imagine that the files are all pushed to one
end ol the disk leaving the empty space at
the other end. That way, when new files

before attempting to reorganise a vol-

S either Central Coast Software nor Amiga
C ".'i 'pitting can be held responsible for
*uch loss 50 it is in your own interest to
back up your disk before 1 using
Oii^irtorback Tools.
An equally useful function is the ability
of this program to restore deleted files.
When files are deleted they are mil com*
pleteiy erased. For each file there is an
entry in a special table which tells the
Amiga where the file U actually loaded.
All that happens when a file is deleted
is that the table entry is removed, The file
itself still exists but the system no longer
cares about it and is free to allocate the
space that it occupies for other files.
Quarterback Tools is able to scan an
entire volume It Hiking fnr deleted files that
have not bt-en overwritten with other
data. Should you discover that you have
accidentally deleted, a file, don't write any
files to the disk you arc using until you
have used Quarterback Tods.

Harmoni
Author: The Disc Company
Requires: Midi equipment and interface
if you have access to Midi hardware and a suilable Interface, Barmpni could well become
an Invaluable lod for any Midi musician - especially lor those of you who've spans your
formative years learning how to write and record at ihe oonlrols o! the Amiga’s countless
soundtracker clones.
Once safely extracted and installed on a separate Floppy. Harmony should boot,
revealing a rather complex and somewhat daunting interlace. However don t be pul off by
Ihe program's harsh screen layoul.
Although la r from pretty. Harmoni is m fact a very Iriendly package thal's simple lo use
and can often out-gun many full price commercial packages when it comes to pure
sequencing power.
On initial boot-up you'll be taken direcHy into sequence mode. As the name suggests,
ifs from bare whom the basic building blocks of any composition start out
Unlike most sequencers, Harmpni doesn'l employ a linear approach to song construc-
tion. In fad, each track is divided into as many or as few sections or individual sequences
as your song requires.
For example, to create e track within a song which wen! verse,, chorus, verse, chorus
you'd only need two separate sequences whieb could then be appended in the correct
order wilhin ihe program's song mode - thereby generating Ihe illusion ol a linear pro-
gression with each section Following on seamlessly through the entire song.
Although a little conlusing at first, the basic principle is very simple: You simply decide
how many sections your song will require, record each unique section in a separate
sequence and then string them together in song mode.
When you first load the program, the sequence ielfer in Ihe top right-hand comer of the
screen will be A and should be Untitled, Change this tg Intro.
If you use the anew gadgets either side of the letter you can scroll through the 52
sequences available lor each song If you now move the mouse pointer tg the very top ol
the screen and press ihe right mouse button the various pull-down menus will be
revealed.
Along the right-hand side you'll find all the major track editing commands while the bot-
tom provides access to the assorted recording options, time signature, metronome and
environmental controls.
Assuming you've already connected a suitable interface and inslrument - and checked
all connections thoroughly - we can embark on a whistle stop lour of the recording
process,.
First click on ihe Midi Thru button - a pinky orange background should become active.
Now move lo ihe numerical gadget alongside the button, press down and hold the left
mouse button, moving up and down to adjust "the Midi channel selection. Qnge ihe chan-
nel is defined, simply select the instrument vote# or preset of your choice and play a few
notes. At this point you should hear your chosen voice - if nol, check alF connections and
ensure you ve followed the set up procedure properly.
It all is well, click on track 1 in the main window, Now move to the bottom of the screen
and dick on the Count In button with the Hell mouse button - again this should change
colour.
Dace active. Count In will provide a lour-bar intro prior lo recording. IF Ihis isn't enough
dick on the nght mouse button and a requester will appear allowing you to adjust the
number of bars to your taste.
In fact, many of Hamioni's buttons will produce a set-up requester when clicked
on by the rig hi mouse button. A period example is the Meiro button which when
clicked upon by the right button reveals a special requestor that allows a Midi
channel and instrument to be assigned as a replacement for Ihe program's internet
metronome.
In addition you can also adjust Ihe melrpnome interval, and of course the tempo can
also be deFmed via a small slider alongside She Metro button on the main sequencer
screen.
Assuming you're adjusted bolh the count in and metronome according - bolh of which
should now be highlighted - it's time to reconp. First, simply practice a short melody and
then when you're ready click on run - or press the spacebar.
AS this point the recording process will begin, so simply wait fgr the count-in to end arvd
play your melody When you'va finished press the spacebar or hit the Run button once
more.
Now the Keep button will be highlighted in red, 11 you wish to re-record, simply rewind

change the tool type in the icon to indicate
the name of the device driver you are
u^ing. For example, the Commodore
device driver name is scsi.device,
Note that RDPrep is not a formatting
utility. By deliberate design, MicroBotics
have separated both low and high-level
formatting from the creation of RPBb. It is
their feeling that the possibility of making
a catastrophic mistake is unacceptably
increased by blending these different func-
tions into one program,
RDprep starts up in its least complex
mode, called Standard mode. Most instal-
lations can be made from this mode which
requires less data entry on your part. If
you have a peculiar drive or setup
requirement, you can go to Complex
mode by clicking on the Complex butlon
in the upper right-hand corner of Screen 1 H
but we recommend that, you don't use it.
Screen 1 starts up in Standard mode
and shows the drives that are connected to
your disk interface, ft yon have more than
one drive connected, RDPrep will start by
showing you the default settings for the
first drive in the list To show the defaults
of any other drives you might have con-
nected, just click on that drives line in the
list,
Once the values on screens 1 and 2
have been set up along with the partitions
you worth return to screen 1 and save the
disk information as a MOUNTFILE This
is a standard te*.t hie which describes the
settings you've created in RDPrep for a
given disk unit. The purpose of a mount-
fi le i.s tn back up your disk settings so that
you can easily restore them if an error
occurs. A mount file cjn be saved (as a
named fill 1 ) on floppy disk then later
recalled and written to the
RigtdDiskBlocks of the disk. It is impor-
tant that vou take the time to create a
j
mountfile. Having created the settings and
partitions for el disk in RDPrep, the final
step Is. to write the RUB to the drive.
A Drivel nit is a piece of program code
tluit is cinbeddixi in the Rigid Disk Block
and which loads and runs automatically
each time a drive is booted. For example, a
Drivelml could he a patch to the driver
code on your interface.
A Dfivdnit is made available for selec-
tion. by clicking the Set Drivel nit button
and selecting the file name from the
requester box. The chosen file name will
then he added to the list of available ones.
Be sure that you establish at least one
partition on your drive, and write its
information to the Rigid Disk Block by
selecting the WRITE RDB button on
printer
drivers
Getting the most out of a primer
requires installation of the right
driver. You can get by wMh a substi-
tute but obviously Jt won t be as
good if it wasn’t created with your
particular model In mind.
As Hewlett Packard printers don't
Lend to come with a suitable driver
for the Amiga we have put a selec-
tion on the Quarterback Tools disk.
Screen 1 of KDRrep. Every drive must
have at Jeant one partition in order to be
recognised by the system. If you fail to do
this, you will get an error message "Drive
Not bound" when you reboot to do a soM
format.
After creating a valid RDB you must
reboot your Amaga using an already
bootable hard disk partition (not the one
you just worked on) or a bonuibk disk.
You must do this to mount the parti-
tions vou ju£t created with RDF rep in
order to do a high level (soft} Amiga DOS
format of the disk. Click on the Shell icon
and issue a format command to the drive
of the form:
FORMAT CRlYE <Gn i l« Nafte> HME
FFS
Tliis command will soft format a partition
for the Fast FHe System. A typical format
command would look like:

I I you have created mure than one parti-

A I this point you should take a com-
plete, standard Workbench disk and copy

Don't forget to use (he ALL keyword to
get all the subdirectories copied. If you

copying a Workbench disk.,
In order bn usable, each hard disk
must have at least ore partition. If your
drive is 3d.Vlb or Jess, you may wish to set
it up as one big partition. However with
bigger drives you'll find it convenient to
set up two or more partitions.
By dividing up your drive in (his wav.
you will improve your file access lime
and directory read speeds. It will also be
useful from a organisational point of view
and make your disk easier to bcick up,

Displayed directly over the? rectangle is
the unit number and manufacturer's name
of the drive that this partition diagram
represents.
The single digit number in each parti-
tion of this rectangle is an arbitrary idenb-
iier used only while working from within
RDPrep. If you are creating only one parti-
lion, all you need do is name the partilion.
Unless you want to use the default name
that KDIYep gives the partition, enter the
logical device name in the black edit-space
under lh? scrollable part] bon lisL
To create a second partition, click on
the Add Partition button A bar will
appear, dividing the previous one in half,
Click and drag on the bar with (he mouse
pointer to resize the partition. You may
also edit its size by typing in die number
of cylinders directly. The partition list will
translate cylinders into megabytes tor von
in the Size column of the list.
As you move the divider back and
forth, note that it you veer off the partition
rectangle, the bar snaps back tn its previ-

Operation if you decide you don't like (he
parameters you set up.
It you want to move the partition

FakeMEIU
Requires: Workbench2 or 3
Wl>en we put Caligari on ll>e October CoverDisk we could fiol find a way to make il run
on anything other than machines with Workbench 1 .3.
It seems that pan of ihe problem lies in the loot that Caligan needs half a megabyte
of chip RAM followed immediately by fast RAM , Hence it will not work on more recent
models because they have at least 1 Mb of chip RAM,
The two types of memory are physically the same and the distinction is made
because the custom chips are only allowed to access part ol the total memory which
has become known as chip RAM,
FakeMem is a neat little utility which makes use of this fact and redefines Ihe area
ihst the custom chips can use as being ihe same as on a standard Kicksiart/Workbench
1 .3 machine.
On an A 1 200 Ihis is all lhat is needed to make Cahgati run so you might like lo copy
it across to the de-archived disk and use il from ihere, Unfortunately we dort'l have a fix
for Workbench 2 users so if anyone finds one please lei us know.

COVERDISKI
The Amiga Computing CoverDisk is |
designed to be as simple to use as J
possible. Follow these instructions
and you'll be up and running in no time!
New readers may have difficulties
using our CoverDisk, so we have
included this page to help you out.
Below we explain how to copy
files from one disk to another, how
to copy the entire CoverDisk and
how to de-archive programs. None
of the first things you must do
when get your CoverDisk is make a
backup copy, then put the original
CoverDisk away for safe keeping.
As a rule you should also do this
with the majority of your software
collection.
How to make a backup
To copy jhe entire CoverDisk, I oad up your
Workbench disk, then either click once on the
CoverDisk icon and select Duplicate, or select Copy
from the Workbench menu, or open C LI /Shell and
type:
Brtrcopr m* m: to dfc:
When prompted, put your CoverDisk (the source
disk) in dfO; and be ready to replace it with your
blank disk (the destination disk), Follow the Amiga's
onscreen prompts until the disk copy is completed,
Now put the original away in a safe place and use
your bac kup.
Copying individual files
You might dt some point want to copy a single program
ham a CoverDisk to your compilation, Workbench disk or
even your hard drive,
T 0 do this you'll need the COPY command. As most
CoverDisk programs are stashed away in their own direc-
tories, the qui-ckest way to copy a program is to copy the
whole directory at once, Use the command:
COPT tdifettnrjd TO Enehdilld ALl
where jdirectory|i is the full pathname of the directory
you wish to copy, and mewdisk) is the name of the disk
and directory into which it will be copied.
For example, if you wanted to copy a utility called
FRED from CoverDisk 2Ts Utilities drawer to a di rector v
called 1 FRED on your Workbench disk, you'd type:
Wt {tHEtbtSUTMlIILlTIII/FHEI TO VlKBUCHl.HFILEl ILL
Alternatively, you can click once on the FRED directory
[ icon and drag it across to the new disk's window. This
has the advantage of creating a new directory For vou
and copying the kon as well.
Once you have moved a particular program ta where
you require it you coukJ experience some problems fun-
ring the program. This is sometimes caused by the pro-
gfam not being a hie to find files, which rt needs to run,-
A good example is the text files on the CoverDisk.
These have been crunched using PowerPacker, so when
you try to copy them to another disk and then tty to read
them you can't unless you have also copied the
Powerpacker library into your UBS drawer.

So if you have copied a program from the CoverDisk
lo your Work disk or hard drive make sun? you abo copy
any other files the program requires, te fonts, libraries
device drivers and Ccommands,
f ■ I
De-archiving
Occasionally we have so many programs to fit onto the
CoverDisk that we have to archive them. Archiving is
where we take the entire contents of a disk and com-
prEss them into one file which ps much smaller^ giving
us space to fit more programs onto the disk.
Dearchiving programs which are on the CoverDisk
is a very simple task, if a program has been archived
then you will need a blank disk to dearchive it onto.
Say we have archived a program called FRED. You
simply double click on FRED's icon, and will be asked if
you have a blank disk ready To dearchive to. Type "y*
or ff n ,p accordingly.
Your computer will then copy the archived file into
its memory and ask you to insert your blank disk. It will
proceed to format the disk, and will then de-crunch
the archrved file onto your blank disk.
Once this has been done you can simply reboot
your machine with the disk which contains the
dearchived program on it and then use the program as
instructed in the CoverDisk pages.
Note that if you have a Workbench 1 or upward
machine you must hoot with the CoverDisk write-
enabled to perform the dearchiving process,
Workbench 3
If you have a Workbench 3 machine, don't
worry - most if not all of the programs on the
CoverDisk will work on your machines,
If the program: is specifically designed to
work with Workbench 3 then you may have to
copy the program to your hard drive df
Workbench disk using tFie process described
earlier on this page.

With increasingly more powerful layout and
illustration packages, the Amiga can now rightly
challenge the Apple Macintosh in the field of
publishing. Ben Pointer investigates the new
generation of cheap and powerful publishing set-ups
T here is nothing that cannot
be published using Amigas.
Even lhis magazine could
be published using Amigas,
We use Macs, not because they are
belter but because the publishing
industry has adopted Macs as Its

The
Publisher
First launched Iasi year
bv Saxon Industries at
£250 under the name
4 Saxon Publisher, The
L Publisher is now in
The D isc Company
stable and is essen-
tially a slightly cut
down version of that
program as a very cut
down price.
Saxon Publisher
never really caught on; il
lacked a number of basic
desktop publishing require-
ments, and The Publisher suffers
from exactly the same problems.
Contrary to l he ""publishing made
easy* claims on the packaging, the user
interface is confusing and difficult to ge!
used to, especially for beginner* to pub-
lishing, at whom the package is aimed.
All text must be tagged, a system
whereby every different style of test you
S!F ®
use in your document must be
completely described, from
point size to texture,
before you can type a
single letter. While
sryle tags have an
important role to play in professional
desktop publishing, burdening the begin-
ner with such a technical concept is not
sensible.
Beginners want to load-ind-go, any-
thing more scares them away. And
it you buy The Publisher and
decide that desktop pub-
lishing is no I for you, it
would be a shame
because no other
publishing software
is as complicated a L
this.
The Publisher has a number of power

more, and because Ihere are more pro-
fessionals using it, 8ut s if I hey wanted
io they could do it on Amigas,
Two of the Amiga publishing pack-
ages, Professional Page and
Page$tream, are very powerful sys-
tems, Both require lots of memory
3Mb or more) and a last hard drive if
they are to put to proper use.
Using these publishers on a system
crippled by low memory and floppy
drives would be unproductive. That's
why a third package. PageSetler 3 r
was developed, for people wanted to
dip l heir toes into the publishing pond
without having to spend a fortune. But
even PageSefter 3 can produce
leaflets, magazines, newsletters*
adverts, you name it. and in fuiJ colour,
Bui all publishing software, even
the budget titles, are notoriously hun-
gry for memory. The fact that they cost
loss doesn't mean they use Jess mem-
ory, It just means they can’t do as
much as the more expensive software,
Memory is a publishing program s life
blood - without memory it will die.
A comfortable minimum is 6Mth an
absolute minimum, despite what it may
say on the box, is 4 Mb. So when con-
sidering what pubJisher is best lor you
and how much you can afford, keep In
mind that the price of more memory

TypeSmith
TypofacQs are to a desklop publisher wfiat
money is lo normal people They can't hv&
without typefaces, and the more they have.
I he more options will be open to them.
There £re plenty of PD and commercial
typefaces avajlabte in both Compugraphic
and PostScripl Typo 1 format, but tor that
ealra $pac*a! job there's nettling better than
an original typeface,, one that no one has
ever se^n before. For that you need a type*
lace design package, and that's whet
TypeSmith is.
Alas, most people are using TypeSmith
tor nothing more then converting typefaces
between Compugraphic and PostScripl for-
mat, which is a bit of a shame because if is a
very good typeface designer* Of course
typefaces need lo be designed on paper
reaJJy, then transferred to the computer
either by hand or by scanning and auto-
tracing.,
Auto-tracing is one ol those inexact sch
ances, and no matter how powerful Ihe soft-
ware or hardware you use, at the end of the
day you are going to have to gel ie then? and
clean up the characters.
There is no software, no! even on the
Mac, that can auto-trace a bitmap and pro-
vide you with a boautifuily dean outline,
wobbly lines and loo many points around
curves is what you always gel.
So designing typefaces es not easy, bul
TypeSmith makes it as easy a 9 is possible
at this price.
TypeSmith produces typefaces that can
be used in PageStream, Professional Page.
PageSetler 3, The Publisher, Professional
Draw, Art Expression and any other pro-
gram Ihaf uses either PostScript Type t or
Compugraphic typefaces.
Altering existing typefaces is probably the
best way to gel slartsd, and TypeSmith pro-
vides you with simple Jo operate tools for
scaling, slanting, relating, and adding and
removing points and fines. Version 2 ol
TypeSmfth is imminenf, which will provide
even more power. No Amiga desktop pub-
lisher is fully dressed wilhout it,

Professional Draw
A publishing program alone iB not enough ter mm a beginner to
DTP yon also nnnd an illustration package,, Professional Draw is
the perfect oompaninn to Professional Page.
Like the arbcte and graphics editor that come with Professional
Page, Professional Draw Is hoUinfced to she publishing package,
enabling you to pass structured graphics between the two pro-
grams al a single keystroke. Because Professional Draw looks end
feels so much like Professional Page, you sometimes lorget lhal
you are using two programs
Designing structured drawings, like designing typefaces, is a
skill that must be learned. It is nowhere near as easy as painting in
something like DeluxePainL but the benefits of drawings being
rescale, which means they always print at any size with smooth
curves and diagonals, makes il a skill well worth learning
From a career point ol view, gond graphics artists are lew and
far between, and are consequently among the higher paid workers
in the publishing trade We writer get peanuts ki comparison.
Uke Professional Page. Professional Draw has a small number
of bugs in it that cause professional and hobbyist users alike to tear
their hair out,
Even so, i! you are using Professional Page it would be better to
buy Professional Draw Shan another illustration package because of
the hollmk capability, which is so convenient.
Apart Irom the ageing Aegis Draw format, Professional
Draw supports only its own structured drawing format, But
because Profession^ Page tan import many other struc-
tured drawing formals, including Adobe Illustrator, and
because these can be sent to Professional Draw via the
hollink* it is possible in a roundabout way to import and
save alien Formats into and from Professional Draw,
In its way, Professional Draw Is every bit as good as the
si a I towed Adobe
Illustrator (which isn't
available lor the
Amiga), and there are
even a few things
Professional Draw can
do that Adobe
illustrator can’t. As i

current; knock-down price and ihc fact that
Soft-Logik are doing a complete re-write of

good as thin*e people think it is,
PagcSlream has more built-in features
than any other Amiga publishing program,
,-ind this is why people say if is better. But
from a professional point of view, many of
the more powerful features arc either
mat quite powerful enough, or don't work
properly-
Onff of PageStreams strong suits is its
typeface support, it is the only Amiga pub-
lishing program that directly supports
PnstSrnpt Type 1 typefaces without forcing
you fco put hies through a conversion utility.
PageStredm also supports
Compugraphic typefaces aiui Soft-Logik's

port alone makes PageStnam a must-have

ning much, much faster, it crashes less in
two-colour.
It handles bitmaps quite poorly.
Allhough there is support for bitmaps up to
24-bib PageStresun insists on Loading every
bitmap entirely into memory. Load the
same bitmap twice and l^igeStream will
have two copies of it in memory.
So rageSlrvam consumes a lot of mem-
ory when working with bitmaps, a ltd even
bk'fh of memory is not always enough to
escape the dreaded "not enough memory"
rrquLStf-r when working with 24-bit files.
Costing £70 or tese, though it Is difficult
to criticise Page Stream, Et me,i ns the protes-
sionaL user can buy both of the professional
packages at a combined cost of less than
£2CKh and white they are not compatible
with one another, it does mean you can use
whjdiever of them does the job in hand
best. And for new comers to DTP,
PagcStmam is definitely & lot easier to gel to
grips w yih than Profess icn at Page.
9 PageSetter 3
Essentially a cut-down version of Ehofessdonal
Page, PageSetter 3 is the perfect choice for any-
one who wanks to get into desktop publishing
but can't afford ils mure powerful big bmthet
or doesn't want the immediate headache or
learning a professional system.
PageSetter 3 supports the AC A chipsei
enabling you to view your docunumb in 2y-
colours if you like, and it comes with te*t and
gr.;ipliic^. editors that are "hull inked" to th-
main publishing program.
Tlik means, provided you haw eno ugh
memory, you can send text and graphic h.i ■
and forth between the various editors wither'
having to worry about saving and import io.
files.
Hot] inking from floppy is pmsibk 3 ,. but a b r
jwkwand, so a hard, drive is reeommended if
you plan hi uhi 1 E J agcSetter 3 in this way. An.,
you need at least 4Mb of memory; 2Mb ■
which should be graphics memory.
Like Professional Page, PageSetter 1 sup
ports PostScript Type 1 typefaces indirectly by
providing you with a program that conver.i

Art Expression
Art Expression is to PageShoum what Professional Draw is lo Professional Page. Bui
unlike Professional Draw, Art Expression employs the industry standard Encapsulated
PostScript format which means lhat illustrations exported from Art Expression are com-
palibie with many different publishing programs on the PC and Mac a& well as the

Amiga. Sott-Logik haven' I given Art Expression tha look and feel of PageStream. but it
hut yet hotlinked to PageStream. There are plans to build this facility into a later ver*
s»on of Art Expression in order for it to work with the next version ol PageStream.
Now, while it is dangerous lo base opinions on soilware lhat doesn't exist, I can'i
s:op mysoff wasaring al the mouth over the prospect pi Arl Expression combi ned with
PageStream 3 On paper this combination would appear to beat the pants of any other
publishing system on any other computer,
Even the mighty Macintosh publisher. Quark X press (used to publish ihrs magazine)
looks weak when compared to Ihe combined Art Expression and PageStream 3 fea-
tures list.
For this reason. If you are planning io get into professions publishing with your
Amiga I must advise you to strongly consider buying Art Expression and PageStream
now, even though the current versions combined are not quite as powerful as ihe
p rofessional Page/Draw combination. SoH-Logik are providing low-cosi upgrade palhs
that are available even to Professional Page users.
I hale making statements like this m
because they often sound soppy, but l really ^
do believe that if SoU-Logik gels
PageStream 3 nghl - it it is fasi enough and
stable enough I mean - il could propel the
.Amiga 4000 into the professional publrshing
market and make those sanctimonious Mac
users in ihe DTP bureaux who lalk down to
Amiga users eat their words.

DTP
Professional Page
Until the release of v4 s Professional
Page was king of ihe Amiga DTP pack-
ages. Then Gold Disk did something
siupid» They released a half-baked
upgrade that had more bugs in it than a
rotting cwpse. II took another couple of
rnonlhs to get a 4.1 bug-fixing version
written and released Now the corpse
has more bugs lhan Prolf ^sional Page
does, but only in a photo finish.
Bugs apart (you can always work
around them) Professional Page is a
powerful publishing package., a fact
clearly demonstrated by it requiring a
hard drive rather than merely recom^

mending one Lots ol memory arw a tasl Amiga is also a requirement unless you want to
crash a to! or spend all oay laying out a couple of pages.
This is nd a criticism of Professional Page, I just want to rake it clear lhal to use profes-
sional software productively you require a professional setup. Putting fat lyres on a car
won't make H go faster, only a better engine will do lhal.
Professional Page's b-ggost assets are ils formatting genies, which ana essentially inter-
aciiva ARexx senpts More than 50 are provided, and these extend the proymnff capabili-
hes by enabling complex operations mat would normally take several menu items, mouse
clicks and key presses to be performed tn just one or iwo mouse dicks Or key presses
Leam how to write AFtexx senpts and you can build your own personal features into
Professional Page. There are a tew dozen powerful genies on PD disks, some of which are
so good that Gokl Disk has now inciLded them with Professional Page,
Speed is important whero designing pages, and Professional Page is no slouch. Screen
refresh is the fastest ot any Amiga pubi sner. Graphics are imported quic kly, even large £4-
bil ones. In Uack-end- white mode Ptofessicml Page fairly whizzes along.
Working in two colours doesn t prevent you from pnnting in more colours, ot course, and
you can always flip quickly into colour mode (IB or 256) if you feel ihe need to see what
your pages look i ike in colour
Many Professional pi age users waste hours by instsling in working in 256-oo!our mode.
White Itiis looks pretty, everything happens much more slowly.
Professional Page 15 the only Amiga publishing package lhal supports facing page lay-
outs where both left and; right naps can
be worked on at the same time So you
have complete freedom io run anything
rrght across the gutter of the spread, and
at print time the left and right pages get
outpul separately, to dot matrix or
PostScript. ■ jfff
Despite the bugs, at the moment
Professional Page is probably still ihe top
Amiga publishing package. But when
Page Sir earn 3 is released (due in
Nowemb^r), it looks likely to lose its throne

G iven lime and a methodical bent,
most modellers can producr
large, complex, and often very
. ... rate models of everything from the
- : liip Enterprise, a tediously common
lor devotod ray tracers, to a pip-
.7 ru&ster.
Complete control over the 3D envirun-
nt and today s powerful, flexible mod-
ng packages means that a host of
* fiJ designed, cleverly constructed objects

boards.
However, no matter how clever or
ntive the modeller, finished results
pend on what the user can see rather
than the mathematical accuracy of, say, a
. *22 Cadillac., and this is where
- rushmaps and textures come in.
Surreal
! he addition of even a common or gar-
ZiTi hump map call give a medkKTe object
j special something, hut add a couple of
more surreal textures and a dreary lib
spaceship can be made to jump out of
screen at you.
Essence Volume IE is the second batch
s mathematical textures from Apex
- >it ware designed solely for use with
-ogine 2 , 0 / 3.0, and the two disk set
"< ds 44 new ways to brighten up those
■ r ed old scenes. Unlike the first volume,
though, this one is designed for some very
specific uses.
Essence Volume E was a collection of
fractal noise anti turbulence, altitude, gen-
era I utility, and a few m Lscel Ian eo u s te x-
lures which gave Imagine users a huge
boost in the rendering stakes.
Volume II improves on this by offering
more textures, targeting them more
Specifically, and supplying a huge number
of pre-def lived attributes files which the
user can assign to an object to save the
bother of setting a Large number of vari-
ables. The only let down with Essence I
was that the textures, being mathematical
by nature, were complicated beasts and
required a deal of faffing around with
hi 4 ■ m i vi g | y rnrdnm n u mbe rs to crea te
effects other than the default.
An easy to digest manual made life a
little easier, as it does wjth Essence II., hut
in the main the user was expected to
experiment,
This time-consuming, if ultimately
rewarding, task is still the mainstay of
Essence II, but a staggering 15b pre-
defined attribute files make life immeasur-
ahk easier. Simply select an object press

Apart fronii the sometimes unhelpfully
bizarre names given these attributes, tiwre

Achievable by fust loading the Cool Plate

Steve Worley and his coding crew must
have been inundated with requests
for space textures if the profusion
of useful textures designed with space-
ships and planets in mind is anything to
goby.
Well -designed
In particular, the Hull Plate, Machinery,
and Gas Plane! textures are quick and
easy to apply, and the results can be seen
in ihe batiks tar Calactica image shown

ment not to see some sort

In tact, this and a
Standard space engine
gas flume feature are just
about the only omissions
from Essence 11. They're
inclusion would have
been a bonus for space
funs, but the rest of us
will be especially
delighted with the new organic and water
textures.
Three types e L ich of Crush Fleck, and
Vein can be used in conjunction with the

textures to create incredible - and often
tola! I v weird - results.

ture, t‘rust3, to produce the complex pat-
terns of colour and depth which relieve a
fairly simple object of its plain appearance.
Ore major drawback with mathematical
textures is that some of them have a dra-
matic effect on rendering times, slowing
Imagine down to a crawl on even an
A 4000/040-
This is an inevitable trade-off for the
sort of quality results Essence 1 1 can pro-
ducer but users should be wary of some
p re-defined attributes as several of them
use two, three, or even four textures at
once to produce their effects.

surprising speed with which some of the
altitude maps render. Many of these, Such
as Flagstone and Crumpled, seem to have
almost no effect on rendering speeds.
En all, Essence 9E is an essential buy for
anv Imagine 2.0 user who has always
yearned to create the ported crazy- pithed
garden path or a spaceship of Star Wars
realism on his or her Amiga.
Its combination of flexible textures and

ul hi hin^; agjfy a flicker fixer on
it* own would hav<? cost GSl or
muro, Ami |h*» cheapest 24-bil
card would have bL^n around £500 - a
costly combination which mm red dial only
the professional or rich and very enthusias-
tic Amiga u*er reached this plateau of dis-
play excellence
These days,, however, the price of Up
market boards is tumbling, and Village
Tronic's Picasso is I he latest low coal add-
on, offering 24-bit and a deinterlacer tor a
penny leys than GOG,
The board is designed to utilise retar-
getable graphics (RTG) so that Workbench
and many other Workbench-friendly pro-
grams run on thu 24-bit high resolution dis-
play rather than the usual Amiga screen
mode*. By intercepting the Amiga's display
database during buOt-up r Picasen inserts
itself in the system and tries to go as unno-
ticed as possible,
Picasso is a Zorno-based card which will
fit in any spare Zorro U or til slot, leaving
the video slot free, Slightly larger than its
direct competition, the Retina card from
Miakm System, Picasso consists in thn main
j
of a bank of fast 45ns VRAM chips and the
flicker fixer circuitry..
a
These VRAM chips ensure that Picasso is
capable of fast screen refreshes and that
many programs, particularly screen-inten-
sive utilities such as DTP and CAD, rim
smoother and quicker than on a standard
Amiga display, With a solid flicker fixer
display into the bargain, Plcas$o makes for
a pleasing work environment.
The near end of the card h ports two 15-
pin RGB connectors, one which feeds sig-
nals in from the Amiga, the other passing
Amiga and Picasso video signaled the
monitor, Once installed, which is a simple
matter of slotting the card In a vacant slot,
the user can route the Amiga's RGB output
to Picasso using the lead supplied with the
IxkifiJ, then plug a VGA or multisync moni-
tor to the other 15-pin connector.
As a result of this setup and the two RGB
ports, Picasso can be used eLther as the
main display device or as a pass-through
for Amiga signals, thus negating the need
for two monitors ora switcher box,
PASS-THROUGH
In addition, the board defaulLs to acting
ok a pass-through unfil IPrets or the user
selects a Picasso screen mnde r which means
games and other self-booting disks will can-
tinue to work as normal
LiSing the Retina card is more hassle in
this respE-ct, as si has only one input and
w r il! not display any picture whatsoever
until Ihe Retina Emu program kicks in
through the WBSlflrtup drawer.
As Retina, will not display 15.5kHz PAL
signals, the user is forced to switch from
Retina to Amiga displays when using such
software, and this involves physically mov-
ing the monitor lead or using a switch box,
Picasso's advantages in this area are
obvious, though how important they would
be to the user with a single application in

Poor painting
mind (DTP or CAD, for example) remains
to he seen Such users would be unlikely to
wan 1 to s w i tell be t wee n D y n aC A D and
Zoo]., so although the home user will find
Picasso a Sol Jess hassle than Retina, the leal
lest comes in long term use with the sort of
software which would benefit from Picasso
displays.
At first sight, Picasso is a rather binlpte-
tic board with I i tile in the way of configura-
tion software, I lowever, it isn't long before
one discovers ih is impression is created
only by virtue of the board's extreme
smoothness of operation. Several Picasso
programs do in fact control the way the
board works, but because the piug^and-go
installation requires almost no tweaking to
begin with, the fimt time user can be for-
given for thinking that nothing ts going on.
When the installer is run, Picasso pro-
grams are sent to three different locations
on hard disk, hirst, the Village.! ibrary is
copied to the SysiExpansion drawer, and
two important fifes are copied to
WBStariup 1 iiese are ChangeScreen and
the Picasso monitor driver^ accompanied by
the less vital Styxblank 24-bit screen
blanker. When these programs are ini-
tialised during startup, I 1 re-assn screen
modes becomes available through the stan-
dard Workbench Screen Modes profs pro-
gram, and thu ChargeSt rivn program htarb
to monitor every newly launched program.
II, say, Lhe u^r tnes to load IVg^tler 5
for the f i r-.» time since installing Picasso,
GiangeScreen will pup lip on Workbench
ami offer a choice of whether Or nut to
change screen mode to a high resolution
Pfcaseo display, and whether this should be
done permaix'iitly or newer.
If the user wants to swap modes, a list of
possibk resolutions appears and a simple
mouse click effects the change, which is
saved in a prefs file so lh.it the question
need never be answered again.
Pressing a hot key combination pops
ChangeScreen's main window up on
VVor]dwnch„ offering a number of choices
for screen resolutions and the way in which
Picasso displays programs. Every time a
Like mosl olhui display cards,, Picasso is supplied with
a bundled paint package so that users can create art-
work using their new graphics modes. The quality of
these packages varies from the high of DC TV Paint to
the exlreme low of the first MacroPaint release.
Personal Paint Lite, the program found in every
Pcasso box, hovers an appreciable distance below the
average mark.
Guile apart horn anything else, this is the first bun-
dled paint program IVe seen which is incapable oi ham

dllng its own board's best graphics mode. PPainl Ule is
a register mode paint package, which means it can han-
dle no more than 256-KJtour graphics and doesn't have
any truck wilh 24-bit images.
For a tot Of artwork, 256 colours is fine, as anyone
who has seen Jim Sachs's Brilliance examples will
agree. Unfortunately, the Lila version, which Picasso is
stock with, seems incapable of utilising more than 64
colours in higher resol u lions than 320 by 200, so is aboul
as useful as an erotic dancer at a wedding reception.

Selecting the program"* name in the list

" * wiih ADJ/ro and Sts la. If this is inappro-
male for one or other erf those Screens, it is
J simple matter to change them individu-
ally.
It is also possible to create a general
mode protnoimn group by shuffling screen
across to a central window then
moted screens.
Programs which arc coded fadly and go
straight past il-at- normal Amiga system func-
lions to directly access chip RAM would
normally refuse to open on a Picasso screen
because die board wouldn't be able to inter-
cept them at system level. As a compromise,
though, the ChangcScrcen program has a
Copy Continuously facility.
If tills l* 1.1 low. *n for a, particular program,

I laving said that, well over L| ^ percent of the
packages t r i4-ci on our test board worked
perfectly.
Some screen corruption is evident on a
few, and Drain 1 still has problems, but oth-
erwise there have been few insurmountable
Massive monitors
The moulito watering Picasso screen modos are all well and good, but some very spe-
cial monitors are needed il many of them are to be usable, hlgns of She higher resolu-
tions will display on a standard SVGA monitor, and a decenl multisync is the minimum
display device lor Picasso to be more than a 24-hit I rams butter for static image dis-
play.
Far instance, the most popular PC screen mode is 800 * 600, a high resolution dis
play used by most Windows packages to give a clean, steady signal which is readable
oo 14in monitors. These monitors can usually scan up to about 38kHz vertical fre*
quency, and the 300 x SCO screen mode would product:
A]P Lino % e>i = JAiHl
This is comfortably inside the 38kHz frequency llmil and would therefore be accept-
able. Many cheaper VGA monptors. however, stop short of this vertical frequency, and
none ol them would stretch to the higher resolutions starling at 1 .024 by 768.

All this talk of screens, modes, and reso-
lutions con sound tuke gobbled ygook, bui in
practice sitting in burnt of an Amigo,, Picasso
is very easy to use. In the majority of cases,
ivliere users might have one main job for
the Amiga, it is conceivable that once a
screen mode was chosen, it would be easy
to forget that the card was in place at all
Users of the Emplant Macintosh emula-
tor can use Picasso as their primary display
board to make use of higher resolutions and
more colour thanks to a Picasso driver now
available with the Em plant software.
Suon to be upgraded to enable true 32-bit
Mac emuta(ioii r the Em plant and Picasso
combination works much footer than using
the Amiga display and alone and is sup-
plied by Elitiersoft who can be contacted on
09082201%
The comparison between this card and
Retina is a difficult one to avoid, so Jet's
make it., Retina is a better quality display
card, and has a maximum resolution of
2..4LK1 by 1,200 - far in excess of Picasso's
L ,280 by 1,624. Bji addition it has a better
paint package in VDPatnt and seems to
have a steadier signal.
Picasso, nn the other hand, is j List as good
at its own resolutions and is far simpler to
install and use. Its through -port enables
easy switching from Amiga to Picasso dis-
play, and there should be no need fora sec-
ond monitor or switcher box as required by
Retina.
As a low no-hassle display device,
then, Picasso has an edge and should sd| on
thiiri strength it not on Its higher end quality.

Would you put your Amiga on the
stage? Stevie Kennedy sits back and
takes in a show with highland
multimedia thespians, Zoom Theatre
M ol many nf US would be sur-
prised these days nt the use of
Atnigas in the video and TV
wuild to produce graphics., animations* and
fLLi the role of budget desktop video work-
station, but if an Al^KJ was to pop its mon-
itor screen round the curtain nf a live
theatre performance, it might raise a few
py throws. Take a trip north to see Zoom
Theatre at work and that's exactly what will
happen.
Zoom sire a small Scottish company
based In InvergordtM, tar lo the north of the
theatrical heartland that is f-d inburgh, yet
in this unlikely Setting a quiet revolution in
multimedia theatre is taking place.
With only their Amiga* and a range of
video and Midi equipment Zoom have cre-
ated, find toured with, what is possibly the
world's first live multimedia play, and cer-
tainly the first produced on the Amiga;.
The company was formed in 1991 as a
sister of the long established and popular
Clcnvn Jewels, who have been touring wilh
a vanety of children's shown since \ %5.
When John McGeoch and a few others in
the group became intrigued in the possibil-
ity of using video, computer graphics, and
animation during shows, they came
together as Zoom Theatre and were soon
on the road with their first production. The
Present.
Using only limited cartoon computer
graphics with little interaction between
these, the actors, and the audience, The
Present was a precursor to the group's next
and much more ambitious project Exhibit
A, which was shown recently at the
Edinburgh Fringe and billed as a "multi-
media show".
Containing over 20 solid minutes of
computer animation displayed on a huge
video projector screen, the production was
a major exercise in the practical application
of A mi bias to live entertainment
At the company's base in Invergorden,
an A 4 000 with 20Mb RAM and an
Opal Vision board produces most of the
graphics with the help of Imagine, Scenery
Animator and APTro, while a mure modest
ASM Hue deals with the Korg Ml synthe-
sizer and ETH simpler responsible tnr the
soundtrack and special sound effects.
Once scripted, story -boarded find ren-
dered, the animations Arc laid onto lli-8
video using a G2+ genlock, and an S-VHS
working tape made for use with a. large
LCD video projector which sends every-
thing to the big screen live on stage. The end
result is ti mixture of digitised images, ren-
dered animations, hand -drawn graphics,

projected during the
thotc oi a rrniffr video
and a show of a unique nature
When the live action starts, an A 1 500
with genlock, VLab, and a concealed video
camera (more of which later I takes care of
the various real-time Amiga functions, and
the actors do their best to act in conjunction
with a lively, but very stupid, video sercm
This is not as easy as it sounds, and leaves
very little room fur fluffed lines.
"You hare to time yourself exactly with a
video over which you have no control/'
John McGeoch told me, "And Sitting is a
big problem too. "
As it would be impossible to see the
images on the video projector screen it light
were to fall on it, the company has to work
in completely blacked -out venues using
Cunningly placed lighting for the human
actors and any other stage elements but this
is only one of many problems John and
friends had to overcome to get Exhibit A on
the stage.
Using animations wilh over 10,000
frames, digitised video grabs, and hundreds
of megabytes of raw graphics is all very
well, but John was often faced with prob-
lems the solutions to which were tedious,
timeHTonsunung, and unproductive. What
many Amiga Owners might find surprising
is that it was mainly the AWfJ s fault.
"We had big hopes for the A4GO0* and
we bought one of the first released;" said
John, *but iifs useless."
The A40GO, flagship of the Amiga range
and multimedia maestro, useless for exactly
the job it was designed to dp? What did he
mean?
H W(ll Opal Vision won't work at the
same time as our genlock, so we use the
A 4000 with Opal Vision to do most of the
Musical lynchpin
The Amiga 500 Plus, if you can still find one, costs less than £250, A Korg Ml syn-
thesizer costs Upwards of £800, yet with lhe hE, P off KCS sequencer. Zoom Theatre's
Ml, allied to an expensive EPS sampler, slavishly obeys the Amiga s commands to
produce the music soundtrack and special effects needed throughout the show.
"We will get a professional musician to come In to lay down the music Itself/'
John said "but whereas before we had to toke it as if was finished on tape, we can
now mess about with it after he’s gone
Everything s on Midi files so we can experiment, and using Ihe Amiga in the first
place means we pay less. These guys charge- by the hour, you know, 1
And what sort of samples do you use?
"Mostly 1 5-bit, as they tend to be Instruments like clarinets and so on, but we re
looking at using one of the better 5-bit samplers lor special effects. These don t
really have to bo 16-bfrL quality, unlike Ihe music-"
Oorrt you find 16-bit samples a little unwieldy?
""With our present setup we can only have eight In memory at once, which is a bit
limiting when you use so many in a show. If we could use more 8-bit samples or find
a 16-bit sampler with better facilities, it would make life a lot easier/
Ci| *1 1 1 Ifl
graphics, then transfer them to the A 1900 fro
be put on tape.
"With no SCSI interface we couldn't
drive our optical disk, su wt were forced t-.
transfer lOjOOO frames of animation plus all
the other graphics using floppies. If we
didn't have the Splitz V Join/ program that
cocnes with ADPro, we wouldn't hare been
able to do it
**' We've only just managed fro get our
hands on Commodore's SCSI interface. so
things should improve, though it's been a
long wait/' he said.
"Hbw they can release a machine for
professional use, especially one that -
aimed at graphics, without a SCSI interface,
is beyond me "
Another problem. John claimed, was that
of memory fragmentation on the A4CHN):

Amiga's huge advantage in multitasking
cwTPcanments.
Si! how long, 3 wanted to know, had
Z»m been using Amigas, and how long
: j at take to prod uce the graphics for the
realty used them on. I suppose it must have
been about two or three months with two
machines running full time to create our
animations for the show.*
And wliat software d id they use?

than Vista Pro. DPaint is handy foe adding
touches Jater, and for finishing the animat
tions bv adding backdrops.
Producing a show iike Kxhihir A then
touring with it is a la bur of love and not a
career designed to make fortunes for the
actors involved.
Zoom Theatre, Like so man 1 ! of its kind,
relies for its production monec on the
Scottish Arts Council, with additional help
from the Highlands and Islands Enterpri^
Council.
If a project is judged suitable for funding.
a gran! is made and the comp am can go
ahead with the lengthy process of putting
the show' together, stretching thu funds as
far as they will go, then it's off on the road
where touring can be anything but easy.
" We do about five shows a week when
we tour, and it takes four hours or so to seE
up each show, so most of nur time is pretti-
much taken up," John told me.
How long do the tours last? "Sis. weeks,
normally, so by the time they finish we re all
ready for a break."
Do you make much from the shows?
"'The aim is to break even, so we have to
attract decent crcnvds and that's only puts si -
ble with children' s shows.*
Using the Amiga live
back-stage gave John and
Zoom Theatre the ideal
opportunity to give inter-
activity a whole new
meaning. By placing a
video camera in a hidden
location at the side of the
stage, then hooking it up to

m A 1500 with VLab video digitiser, John's
team were able to select a member of the
audience at random and include them in the
pla; "We d raise the house lights enough Eo
^et a grab, then snap someone with VLab,
The Amiga operator just sucks the image into
\DProand TV Paint, and the result goes into
Sea la,' said (ohn,
And wh.it happens to the unsuspecting
victim then?
"WelL we put their face on a Fashion
Police warned poster which appears on
screen at a certain point in the play, and the
Fashion Police go and arrest the person for
having bad dress sense.
"Then we run the Sea la screen through
the video projector and re-dress them bv
swapping brushes of clothes from the year
aar
You mean like the old game where you
swap cardboard legs, bodies and head* until
you get a whole character?
"A bit like that, yes, but this way we
involve the audience directly in the show,"
Sound* tike a lot of fun r but l hope it never
happen^ to me!
Finally* I wanted to know where the
future lay lor this sort of show: 11 'When we
get re-writeable CD-ROM storage we can
bring a really huge show to the audience, but
tor the moment we're working at making it
even man? interactive,
‘“the next show will, be based on a restau-
rant idea where the audience choose from an
on-stage menu of show element*. If they go
k>r a song, we do a song, and so on. It's a bit
tike an ad venture game on stage, with every-
thing coming together in a broadly set out
plot/ 1
With shows of this nature in the pipeline,
the Amiga and Zoom Theatre look set to

High density
rip-off?
,g l am ■writing to hnd out ii users of high density (HO) (loppy
y drives are being ripped off. I was recantfy in desperate need of
some blank disks, and visited my local computer shop where l saw
normal 680 k double density (DP> disks at £6.95 for ten and HD disks
at £12,95 for ten.
Not having my bram in high gear at the lime I asked ihe assistant
-Hal the difference was, and explained that I had an A 400 Q/ 03 D-
He replied that unless l had an HD drive the disks would be useless, so I bought 20 DD
: skg for £13,50 When I get home ! realised what an idiot I had been and what an idiot
^ne assistant had been. The A4000/030 comas complete with an HD drive in it (er„. yes,
we know - Ed )1
Then I recalled reading a letter to a magazine about putting a hole in the top left-hand
comer of a normal disk, thus converting it to an HD disk, sg I tried it Lo and behold it
* i rked. Not only could I get two disks' worth of data on one disk, I could buy the cheaper
D disks and, armed with a 3/Sths drill, convert them to HD.
I looked very closely at ihe two different disks, and they both have 135 hacks par inch
r 60 tracks, so why are we being asked to pay an extra £5 for a hole? is this a rip-off or
s shis $ rip-off?
S F Malfiom Hove
' tw practice of drilling holes in DD disks has been around in the PC world tor years now,
jnd there are marry who wit insist that there ts no difference between HD disks and their
reaper cousins apart from the extra hole. However, it's not as simple as that
Inside each floppy, there is a disk coated with a layer of magnetic materia/, and this
coating is completely different on the more expensive HD disks.
White it is possible to "convert* a DD disk to act like an HD disk , the conversion is a
crude one and the magnetic material of she disk will haw problems with the bit depth of
me information hei&g stored on it and me way in which that information is read and
written ,
High density drives work faster f/ian ordinary dnves and use different magnetic flux
rates to lay down and retrieve data, and ait this places a great strain oh the DD fifth
:olumnists. The resuit is Shat data soon becomes corrupted, and may disappear alto-
gether after about a weak,
Using converted DD disks is not recommended, but could be an economical method of
short term storage, and if you're going Jo do it at ail you should ensure that you use only
good duality branded disks.
Drat
those
dongles
Having read your review of
Brilliance m the October issue, l
had planned to buy the product,
hut my decision changed slightly
when I heard it had a hardware don-
gle fitting in the joystick port.
E'n be quite honest, I don't- want to
have to swap dongles every time J load a
serious package and had hoped that after
X-C’AD we had seen the Iasi of th^ things.
I mcan r it's really quite ridiculous and
the disadvantages far outweigh the
advantages. What happens if you want to
multitask two such programs?
[ enjoy playing the odd game, but as
the dongle plugs into the joystick port,
you can imagine the headache it's going to
be swapping between one dongle |o
another on top of swapping the stupid
things with the joystick.. I presume my
port's going to he in for a tough time too.
Do software manufacturers really think
they are going to gain from including
these useless plastic things? What hap-
pened when Ocean released Robocop J
with a dongle? The game gut pirated to
death, that's what!
The dongle may stop a few pirates, but
the game would probably sell less than
usual because, I presume, many people -
Stop the PD pirates
I am writing this letter as a plea to all your readers to help
In the fight a gain si pirated software.
As a PD library with around 4,000 disks we are con-
stantly being sent new PO software for Inclusion in
the library, and from time to lime wo receive commercial
software from enthusiasts who have been given a copy
from a friend and who genuinely believe It to be public
domain.
This happens quite frequently with new dip ail which,
being reedy to use, and cut straight from the page, is eas-
ily doctored to remove copyright notices and credits.
11 someone otters you software that you haven't seen
before, please inquire as to its origins before re-distribut-
ing it to other users. If you have any doubts you can
always contact us and we ll be glad to help you out.
Remember most software, either PD or commercial, will
have some sort of copyright or distribution notices, per-
haps as a read.me doc rile somewhere on the disk.
P Topping , Your Choice
OH, folks . you heard the man. Just because a piece of
software appears to be PD doesn't mean its author isn't
being ripped off,
This covers both commercial software and
shareware < which is often sold as free or public domain
rather than under the try-before-you-buy intentions of its
author.
The Simple message is that you may unwittingly be a
party, innocent or otherwise, to theft so keep your eyes
peeled tor dodgy disks r
me included - don't

Tutorial vote
I am writing in support of Franceses
Shearc roll's letter in the October issue
regarding your tutorials. I loo think
that tutorials are tops and would like
to s$e some on games programming
using Amos and DPainl III.
As I'm writing, I might as well ask
about Amos, i received a copy free
with a magazine and so don't have Ihe
manual. Is there any way to break from
Ihe program once it is running?
Many's the time I have spent hours
on pari of a program and am eager to
get it going, but once it is running I
can t get back lo the editor lo make
changes or even save it.
Mark Lamb, Co- Antrim
Amiga Computing has the longest run-
ning Amos tutorial in t he world in the
shape of our Amos Insight column.
You can find towards the back of
every issue, and earlier this year we
distributed a collection of these
columns on the CoverDisk in the form
of a complete guide to programming
your own Pacm&n game. That should
be tutorial enough for most folk
Your Amos proO/em is a simple
matter at pressing the Control and C
keys at the same time. This combina-
tion will break any Amos program run-
ning under the interpreter, returning
the user at once to the edlfort and wilf
often work to exit from complete com-
piled programs as weft.

Caligari fix
Who says Caligari doesn't work with the
A 1 200? It does* Just use a PD program
called FakeMem to fool the Amiga into
[funking it has 2k less chip RAM, con-
verting this into 512k fast RAM instead of
l Mb chip RAM Caligari looks for this sort
of configuration, so with this simple little
PD utility all is well.
The only problem is that the Workbench
cursor shows up on the Caligari screen, but
I've redesigned it to he a four dot square
and at doesn't cause problems. To change
Caligari screen colours, you coo change the
Workbench colours, as Caligari uses these
for die screen and icon strips.
As I own an A 1200, I don't know if
using the FakeMem program before run-
ning Caligari will work on an AG0Q r hut if
you've got 2Mb ol RAM It might.

Traditional
disks
Ln response to Nick Burton's letter in the
August issue and your request for more
views, I agree entirely with him in his
request for old style CoverDisks
and would not mind paying a
little extra for a second disk
with ail excellent pro-
gram like Interfile on it.
What has disap-
pointed me most b
the fact that there
have been no music
samples on the
CoverDisk since
February 1W3, and this
was one of my main rea-
sons foe buying your excel-
lent magazine.

I was looking for some help with hard
disks ns E have just bought an A 1 200 with
fcFMb hard drive and have been buying
ytnir magazine for the last few months. I
notice that you have many useful utilities
on your disks, but 1 have had trouble copy -
ing them to my hard drive. Net -n i I the u ti l-
rfies work when I drag the icons across.
1 would like to tell everybody about the
recent service which E got from Mhtdscape
International, when l returned a Miracle
keyboard to them because three of the
keys were not pressure sensitive The key-
board had been bought for mv second-
hand so I lud no idea of its- age or if it was
covered by the warranty; When J
explained this to Mindscape, however,
they just said not h> worry and asked me
to return the unit for investigation.
I returned the keyboard by courier lo
arrive on a Monday before close of busi-
ness,. and I wo days later I received a
replacement free of charge which had
been dispatched the same day they got the
original! All I can say is that either the
engineers at Mmdscape work miracles in
finding faults to determine whether a
replacement is required, or !hat
Mind&capo's after sales service is second
to none.
Well done Mind -scape, and thank you.
A G tiiuelitiffe, Norwich

Long live

Well done to the likes of Team 17 and
Blood house for not only bringing us
excel lent qua Iffy software, but also
getting the message about prices.
Alien Breed Special Edition is only
£11, and Stardust is only £1 3.
Being a mere student t can usually
only afford a game every two months
or so, but with prices this low 1 can
indulge myself every month, Add to
this the excellent gameplay of these
games (can't wait for Skidmarks) and
many of the other big software
houses are put to shame. Long live
high quality budget!
On another point, why have you
started doing phone-in competitions
such as the 0391 numbers? At least
with a postal competition the entrant
has the choice of spending only 30p
to enter, and! can enter more than
once for less. Besides, il gives you
the opportunity to colour your post-
cards In bright colours, so why the
sudden change?
Daryl Booth. Ramsgate
Budget software has become on* of
the most rmportajil sectors of l/ie
games industry over ffre pasf few
years, and hardly a fop ten chart
goes by without one or more budget
releases riding high.
Perhaps this is a message lo the
software houses that many more
users - even impoverished students
- would buy rather than pirate games
if the price was tower. As you say.

Our competitions are organised so
as to be as easy to enter as possible,
which is why the phone-in compos
were introduoed. Mfe appreciate, how-
ever, that some readers begrudge

wrongly, that we make a mint out of

The final part of
Mark Smiddy’s
introduction to
AmigaDOS explains
the ins and outs of
automated startups
here is a solution
Two Amiga IX>5 commands control the
execution of scripts. EXECUTE runs a
named script and FAIL AT sots the Shell's
sensitivity to errors. Therefore you can
run the boot disk's startup scrip! like this;
Or altered by F AFLAT, the default level
set by AmigaDOS is IC3 r sy the following
command will allow all rum-serious ernins
ro pass:
can try booting the machine. In dire cir-
eumsLma-s. this command may be added
to the head of the just
like any other command, fur instance;
WAILAT 11
> EH CUT |p^tDlilc;5 Star tuirirqumcE
If a startup script contains a bug (some-
thing Ls wrung) the script will usually stop
harmlessly. However, in some circum-
stances it is necessary to execute the script
regardless of previous errors: by ignoring
them. There are fog r possible error "'lev-
els" returned after every command and
only fatal errors will stop a script. The
emirs are:
Similarly, you can raise the failure level
even higher to force the script to continue
after anv error like this:
FJUUT 21
lm EHVIK: IflfliEnv ALL 4UIC1
tssiirt IHV: MM: In it
etc,..
1>f AlLAT 21
Once done you can test a
like this:

but it should be removed, once the scrip!
has been ! Lilly tesEed and debugged.

Every time you enter a command
Amiga DOS looks for it in am# of many
directories. Most commands live in C:, of
courst 1 , but a large number do not, FOR-
MAT Lind DI5KCOFV usually live in the
System drawer (an ancient compatibility
issue) and other commands in SY3:TooLs,
SYS:Utilities and so on. AmigaDOS
searches something called the ''path" that
iis actually ^ lis-1 of directories to be
searched
The default "path''' looks in the Shell’s
current directory and the C: assign rm-nt:
nowhere else. If Amiga! X IS fails to find the
command there it returns with an error
However, you can lull AmigaDOS to
look in other places by specifying addi-
tional paths, lor Instance, the following:
1MATH Si m
adds the $: assignimtfit to the current path
lis|. In other words,. AmigaDOS will look in
the S: assignment if it cannot find the
requested command (verb) in either the
current directory or the C assignment.
PATH is usually only executed once
from the Startup-sequence and multiple
directories can ho added at unci'. It Is
important lo note, however, whenever this
command is called, the ADD switch must
be used (as above) to prevent the existing
path settings from being overwritten ^
Bool your Working AmigaDOS disk and
call ED hi edit your Rootdisk’s SlarLup-
Siipte ZrOA startup
sequence as described earlier. Add the fol-
lowing immediately after IFREFS;
Pith rai; it i: ST 5 : HIS tit tup STSiSjfStfi
.1 rid ; tfifllp,-
This means the search directories for that
disk are RAM, SYS:C SYS:S,
SYS:WBSiartup and SYSiSystem,
You may have noticed that one of the
directories in that specification has not yet
been created. That's because this directory
is usually only used from Workbench, and
there tori', should have an icon associated
with it.
What is the besl metbHid to create theM a
icon i bed" directories - drawers in the
Workbench sense? Well, that depends on
how you are going to access them, If a
directory is created from Workbench, it
automatically receives an icon, but it one Is
made from AmigaDOS It does not: saving
time and d isk space.
I he fastest and most convenient way to
mgke the WBStartup drawer is lo use the
Workbench "'New Drawer" function. You
cannot do this for directories you have
made from AmigaDOS though, because
Workbench will think there is a naming
dash - trv it with System.
i- J
This problem is an easy one to salve:
there are two methods. You urn either cre-
ate a new drawer icon for 6m directory In
question using lam EdK or (more simply)
copv an existing drawer icon into the
vacant Space. Icons are suffixed ".info", SO
you could copy the System drawer icon
from your current Workbench disk like
this:
1 >WT ET i:SfsHI-i nt p f( flontDllk:
When the disk's window is closed and re-
opened the drawer icon appears - although
you may need to selecl "Clean up" to see it.
If you want to use a different existing
image,. you must unsure it is of type
DRAWER: l> onEdil will set the correct type
for you.
Workbench 2.04 ha s L i nagging hangover
From the earlier veilpiotvs: keyboard I, mint*
From Workbench 2.1, keyboard selection is
completely automatic - it's handiiHi by die
II 1 refs daemon, up until then it is lhi j
responsibility of | he Startup-sequence to
select the correct oth 1 . Workbenches of 3.1
and higher have a compatible facility hut
this Ls left for programmers only.
Actlvaiing the correct keyboard layout
on Workbench 2.D4 startup disks is accom-
plished thus by adding the following Ijjm?
so the startup -equence anywhere between
IPREFSand LOADWB:

- you may have to change it for your coun-
try. You should also copy the command
into the System directory (after booting
from Workbench ) tike this:

Now is the ume to get a program to
boot We'll start with something small -
since there's nol much room left on our
self-hmllngdiskl
Before going any further, you might
want to make a copy of your BootDisk and
keep it hiindy for occasions where you
want a quick bootable disk.
Decide for yourself what program you
want to boot. Look through your
Workbench disk set - or even some recent
Amiga Computing Cover Disks - and find
something that runs from a Workbench
icon.
Drag copy the icon from its listing disk
on Id your bool able disk. Let's say you

Save that, and bml the machine with l
new disk. If everything went according
plan, you should shortly see your clur
program light up on the screen
But w- hero's Workbench? Mo
Workbench programs assume they hav
been started from Workbench (almost evs
thing can be started from AmigaDOS) 1
they do jyoi return contnil straight away.
En mosl cases you will have to quit t
program, whatever it before you can
Workbench. This is not acceptable b'
AmigaDOS provides a solution: A Co
manil which actually multi-tasks your p
gram m total harmony with Workbenc
called RUN,
First of all We nfied to copy the cumrUcti
onRn our Bootable disk tike so:
1>C6PT C : RUN tP loplDiskiC
Now make it available to the command
the startlip-»*|tienoe script;
RUN dJL: >l¥ll: 3 uc e r D jp k- r Cl u 1 1
Loa riN R ; s tar t thv lafkbeqtN
lain
That’s all there is to 0 T The two extra b
<N1L: nind > N E L: Lire some 1/C J redirection
it's rather fcK> advatwed to explain here,
is required su llial the initial Shell proa
Chin close its window when ENTX. U
encountered, You can use ihis method
complete safety with over 98 per vent of
Workbench-based prngrams.
Well-written programs will compli
something is missing iintj tell you what
need - all yuu have In do is supply it
cases where things get really tricky, \
might find a utility like SnoopDOS {a\
able from good PD libraries) is a g
debugginig aid.
To conclude thisi series, two compli
ready -to- run startup sequences are p rev id
which highlight the differences between
two systems, A disk designed to boot or
version 2 machine (such as an A-^H) w
work fine on a later model such Nis an AJ
- but not the other way around.
The scripts are modified versions of
supplied by Commodore - so if you w
compatibility wilh all other models y
should study the Unmolested versions.
The special string >N1L: has been hiJ‘
to some commands - this prevents the c
mand generating output in the event
some error - that ha.-s the side effect of o -
ing a Workbench screen with a console
dow Lind clashing w’ith ll J refs.
The -C':^ tn front of some command
indicates they are to be stored in the C di
tory - not eLsewKere. This provides a sr
performance increase over the path se.i
ing system and can shave a second or
off the startup tune. More importanlly,
shows which commands you need a
where to put them! To use these scripts \
will also need thu following comma nd^
your G directory; PATH, VERSION, St
PATCH, ADDBLIFFERS and
MOUNT.

. buT the irHau^ bui/nni ib -raJpm/E' to
ackmg has a simple definition:
The aft of gaining unauLhorij^ed
acce&s to information held on a
computer or computer-based system,
whether that computer is connected to a
modem, Lir similar communications
device, or physically located in the same
place as the hacker.
Computer hacking has nun 1 ed on since
the phrase first came into common com-
puter industry usage in the early 70s,
Then, the phrase was common I v applied
to a computer nerd who spent most of his
spare time playing around with electron-
ics to produce a VHF radio from (seem-
ingly) an empty com flakes packet, a tube
of glue and some wire,
It took the arrival of modems on to the
computing scene in the late 3 ^ 70s to
change the image of the hacker from
benign to slightly malevolent, with the
nerd turning into a computer huff gaining
unauthorised access to an online sy stem,
as seen in films such as War Games and,
mure recently,, Sneakers.
Computer hacking has its origins in
phone phre&k-
ing, a hobby
that also star-
red in the US,
when electron-
ics enthusiasts
of the 60s and
70s discovered
they could use
special control
tones over the
phone net-
work to switch
calls all over
the world - as
ope ra tors do -
without paying.
The first phone phreaker who shot to
prominence in the 70s was John Diaper,
who became known as Captain Crunch
after the breakfast cereal in which he

into an estimated 10,000 on-line systems
around the world. The list of hacked sys-

as well as publishing that information rm

V ideographv has always played a
major note m the Amiga market
but .since the camcorder explosion
.f ~e last few years the floodgates, have
■6i \k opened on countless videographic
s : -ons, From simple tltlers to high-end
-£tng sytfcms,
However no matter what new gadgelry
. pears, the heart of any DTV setup wi
, f» jvs be a genlock. Over the last year the
. nlock market has been pretty quiet.
~i *fVL'r r iJiLs month ill that's wt to change
Mil two brand new units in the same issue.
in this review the spot ligh t falls tm a big
• ’ -ther for the Mini Gen genlock which
it pea red in last month's Shop Window,
* Med MiniGen Professional, this latest
i Jeavour from Lola Electronics is
'-signed fro offer n challenge in the
c w mid range - an area currartly
: minated by the RocCen Plus,
To help stake its claim, MiniGen
ro is set to retail for |usl £111 more
an its RocGert counterpart. For I his
: Jitional investment you gel quite a few
- nncmenth, the rmsst notable being a built-
■ tader, ais opposed to the knob control
— .Hovod by the RocGcn.
to fact it's fairly obvious after a brief lour
MiniGen Pro that the designers have had
dose look at the expensive end of the map
i l‘ t and have attempted So emulate at least
ftte of the more desirable features.
Chi the rear of the unit awaits a familiar
array of composite and KGB D-ring porta.
■ - you'd expect - considering the price - &-
■ HS isn't on the agenda. However for a
fc mposite VI IS source the MiniGen Pro is
aeal, with both in and oleI hsgn.iis conneCt-
"g up via pro-style composite video BNC
Alongside these sit the 23-pin RGB com-
peter Video In and ite associated 3?GE pnss-
i rough - an option which allows the
riginal computer output to be passed to
our monitor untouched, while the outgoi-
ng video signal displays the chosen oornbi-
liition of computer graphics rind video.
Prof
Paul Austin
oversees the
refit as Lola s MiniGen
turns professional
Thanks to the pase-through option - also
available on the RocGen - you're free to
continue setting-up and ad jusl i ng even dur-
ing mix-down as the Amiga display
remains constant.
Unfortunately however, the MiniGen
Pm isn't "without its faults - especially in
relation to AG A machines. Although the
RGB computer output can be fed into the
genlock via a supplied 23-pin connection,
die pass-through signal cannot be used in
conjunction with a hi-ies VGA/multisync
monitor.
While a physical connection between the
23-pin pass-ih rough uml 1 S-pcn monitor
cable can be made via Com modores' moni-
tor adaptor, tlie signal simply will not sync
regardless of the screen mode.
MJrriCrn Pnp f
frrH'N? guotffy
Si triiK It
Impravffi avvr
the orightai
MfafGen
As a result, pass-through monitoring on
AtA machines will require a medium res
monitor such as the Philips CMBB33-1I or
perhaps a Commodore 1 0H4S. If neither of
the above are available the only option left
is to invest in another Lola product, namely
their LAI TV adaptor, with the assistance
of ivhich even a humble FV could he
pressed Into service as a pseudo-monitor
With ihe exception of the various I/O
ports and nt course the solitary fader, the
only other notable elements are the three
buttons on Ihe front of the control panel -
each of which toggle the output of the
MinK ii k i\ Pro hehvwTi one of three keying
states
Following in the t UHSfre genbeking tradi-
Hon, the three basic modes start with a
fader-con trolled dissolve from video to
computer graphics, or visa versa. Next
comes the most famous effect of them all,
with colour ot being replaced entirely by
the incoming video creating the illusion of
computer graphics floating above incoming
video.
Last and no doubt least comes a basic
pass-through option which simply sends a
clean video signal direct to the tar-
get recorder,
Aside from the various connec-
tions and controls, the oniy other
thing worth mentioning is the rather
strange orientation of the D-ring con-
nections, each of which is upside-down -
something which could cause no end of
fun in a dimly-lit editing suite,
As for the actual keying quality, the
MiniGen Pro is probably best described as
average. Both the fader control and the
transition between keying states have been
well implemented with the output leaping
between modes and sliding between mix
levels very smoothly,
Al as the actual keying quality isn't
quite as impressive, Although much
improved In relation to the MiniGen, the
overal output in certainly no better than
that of the RocGen. As a consequence, the
choice between the two units is a rather
tricky ore.
On one hand yon have the extra keying
rmide offered by the RocGcn, while the
MinjGen Pro counters with a built-in fader.
Given the choice I'd probably opt for the
MiniGen simply because the better fad i ng
it hi tn pI wtHild, for me at least, outweigh the
need for an invert option.

I here's nothing more exciting than
buying a new computer and nothing more
depressing than having to wade through
a particularly unfriendly manual explain-
ing how to use the hardware in computer
jargon which lias little meaning to rhe
average punter.
For the time beings forget about all the
extras and let's start with the important
shift: How to get it up and running,
Fiml of all find a Surface and puL your
television on it, Remove the TV aerial and
open the Amiga box.
It co mains the computer (really?)*
mouse, power cable and aerial lead, Take
out the machine and lay it on the desk in
front of the telly. Take a good, long look
at it..
E'he keyboard has the standard type-
writer layout, Qwerty, as well as a numer-
ical keypad, Running along the toy are a
series of keys which read FI up to F10;
these are called function ktws. I hey are
used in many programs ranging from
business to games titles.
By pressing on them, they will perform
a particular function denoted, by the soft-
ware that, is loaded in to the computer at

put tin g the one of the many disks, f
provided with the hardware,
On turning the computer round
to look at the back, don't panic - it r s
not as had as it looks. To start with
you only need three of the ports
present: The mouse socket situ-
ated on the far left; the aerial
hole,, labelled RF Modulator;
and finally, the power socket itself - the
furthest to the right, t ake out the plugged
power adaptor and look at the end with
the five-pin plug which refers to the num-
ber of pins that it has (like a normal
household three-pin plug),
You'll see the word TOP marked on it
which in the way up the lead should be
when slotted into the computer, Slip it
into the appropriate socket
and stick the three-pin plug
into a power point, but don't
turn the adaptor on yet.
Fetch the aerial lead and
slide that into the FT modu-
lator and the other end into
the telly,
Finally, get the mouse out
and fit it into the mouse
port. Turn on the power
adaptor and flick the televi-
sion on. Meet A channel that
you don't need and tune it
in to the computer's fre-
l| ueney.
After a while, the com*
p liter's screen should

appear on the telly. It shows a disk con-
stantly going in and out of a disk drive,
This is the Amiga's subtle way of telling
you |n put a floppy disk in the drive
before st can do anyth ing.
From here, a gamt- can be loaded auto-
matically but make sure that you have a
|oy stick (it plugs in next to the mouse).
For people who want to Ioann as much
as possible about the basic use of the
machine, 1 recommend grabbing
Workbench 3,0 from the selection of utili-
ties disks included and slipping that into

Finally, lake Out the relevant manual
and start to read. If none of it nukes sense
then don r worry. 111 be back next month

the message "Cannot open window*.
Then comes AC' e September HSP with

that lets me set it to new screen /standard
display. I am also frustrated bv what 1
hope is a simple problem. 3 have several
programs that do not tike my Power

plus dock).
If I could place Workbench's
NoFast.MHM tool in the early startup win-
dow H that would be a great fix. Can it be
done? U so, how? Please again assume that
I know nothing and lead rno through step
by step. I have Directory Opus installed on

shouldn't it?

What it does bring in backwards compati-
bility to the A 121X1-
I had the de-archiving problem with
your CaMgafi C over Disk, so did a boot
with Relokick, put in Caligari and success-
fully de-archived from there.
If you are still with me, pleats allow me
to state tlrul Relokick. is slightly awkward
for the fir si time user. When l first used it 3
thought l had a hugged disk, so do the
following:
1, Boot your machine with the Rein kick
2. The title screen will appear. After a
short time the screen will go blank. Be
patient - in a while the title screen will
appear again. When this happens
remove the Relokick disk from the disk
drive and then warm boot
(Ctrl / Amiga /Am iga ). You shou Id now
be looking at a Workbench ] .3 screen.
3. Put the disk to be de-archived into
external drive and proceed as nnrmaL
4. When the de-are hiving is done remove
the disks and switch off vour machine
■
to get rid of Workbench 13
3. You should now be able to load your
.Il'-.i ivh: v -. '.I disk from your normal
Workbench.
I hope the above is of help to those hav-
ing problems. I stress that I have not tried
it on any other computer but my own but
E don't see why it should not work for all
of your render having de-archiving prob-
lems and unlike myself going bald in tl ■

T hings I hat people get hung up
about when they start really get-
ting into their computer are hard
disks,, faster processors and of course mem-
ory . The lack of any of these items in a sort of
notional wall you slap into when you start
poshing the boundaries of what your
machine can do.
Ray- tracing, 24-bit graphics, dLrect-to-
dLsk recording- all vrrv nice ideas, but in
order to attain these dmy heights you must
lay some cash on the table and Improve
your machine, and that's for definite,
Rut once you take that bold step, you
realise it J s not quite as simple as slapping
your dosh on the counter and saying 'Td
like a yard and a half of memory, mate''' like
you would in any other shop.
Buying memory is not sit much like buy-
ing doth as buying a stereo. How much do
you need? How reliable is the circuitry?
How much can I gel for my money?
And before you know it r it's another one
of lluxse minefields with you in the middle
of it, and damn it if you didn't leave lhat
pocket mine-sweeper at hero In your other
pants.
Buying brain for your Amiga is actually
very simple, but you have to peer through
the marketing speak to gel to the basic
things you need to know, People are always
talking about the speed of the memory
chips, SIMMs, ZIPs, PCMC I A cards, and
nobody ever explains what it's aM about I o
Phil South reveals the uses for - and
routes to - a larger quotient of
RAM chips for your Amiga
cover Ihe real basics, memory is like
workspace in your computer, llhe more you
have, the more stuff you can load and run in
your machine. In (he Amiga it's a tiny piece
more complex, in that you have essentially
two types of memory: fast and chip.
Chip memory is usually the amount of
memory you get in your Amiga when you
buy it. Originally the Amiga only had 256k,
but of cour* j modem Amiga* ship with up
to 2Mb of chip.
The significance of chip RAM is that it is.
the area of memory by the main processor
and Amiga's custom chips, or graphics co-
processor.
On newer Amiga* with Workbench 2 or
X this is also called graphics memory and
the size of this is shown at the top of your
screen in bytes.
Ehis RAM is shared which means some-
times die main 60000 for better) is using it,
and other times the custom chips like Agnes,
Denise or Paula are using it. Most of the.
time this sharing is not apparent to the
naked eye for anything else) until you gH a
real graphics payload into your memory 1 .
Then, because the custom chips are bog-
ging the graphics memory r the main proces-
sor can/t get at much memory, bo
everything starts to slow down at this point,
as the 60000 waits for the odd slice of contin-
uous RAM to work with.
If chip memory is all you have in your
machine then you problems are double
because all your programs and sound and
everything else is crowded into memory too.
Ihe pnJv solution is to buy more fast mem-
orv P as this is usable only by tho main pro-
cessor, and so it doesn't have to compete for
cycles with the custom chips.
You can expand chip memory with
something like DKG'S excellent MegaChip
2000/ 50CX although for the most part this is
an expensive luxury for real graphics heads

only. Expansion memory, ur fast memory, o
anv additional RAM you bdl onto your svs-
r a v
tom other titan the base memory the machine
came with.
This is useful as not only does it provide
the graphics chips with more leg room in then
precious chip RAM area of memory, hut it
also allows you to load bigger programs, and
not only that but more memory hungry pro-
grams t(K 1 .
Getting more RAM into your computer i>
easy once you made the choice. Then- are a
fairly limited number of ways you can physi-
cally attach RAM to the system and have it
work. Chief among these for your AblKl or
500 Phis user as the trapdoor underneath
you r machine or the expansion slot under the
cover at the left cheekplate of the machine
Both these orifices have covers you remove to
engage the board with (he new memory on it
EXPANSION
In the trapdoor you can simply up the
level of your memory using the A 50] mem-
ory expander, or you can even insert a full
8Mb. The expansion slot enables you to ettfvT
slap on a full 8Mb or add it through the use os
expansion devices -uch as the A 590 ur A57t
drives.
Both these devices allow 2Mb of fast mem-
ory to be added to the system as wet! as the
hard or CD-ROM drive. The key question
here is: When you buy any device for the
expansion slut, is there a through port? Thh
means: Is there another port on ihe side of the
RAM expansion it to allow you to fit more
devices? Some 1 devices terminate the link and
don't allow more expansion.
For 1500/ 2000/ 3000/40W there is the
good old Zorro slot. This is the standard
expansion slot in all big box Amiga*, am:
usually these are attached hi the motherboard
inside the machine, although on the 300 0 and
4JHO they arc on a daughter board sticking up
at right angles.
A RAM card can be stuck in any available
skit, although you may have to alter a jumper
un the board to teU the computer how much
RAM you have installed.
Some hard drives and accelerators have
RAM cm them, although like as nut this is 32-
bit rather than the standard 16-bii RAM. For
most normal Amiga* the regular lb-bii RAM
is easily fast enough for your needs,
Once you up the speed of the processor
MEMORY
you would do belter to have some 32-bii
R AM as well, dimply because the faster pro-
cessor would be held bade by not being able
to access memory as fast as it could. Divides
like this fit in the processor slot so if you
already have some fast RAM fitted in a
memory caret you can k mp that in there,
Hnsving g tester processor also means the
upper limit of how much RAM you can
hove is expanded, On a normal system
you're 1 looking at 0Mb being iJie upper limit,
whereas -a A&G30 can address up k* 64Mb
On all machines yon can boost ihe
amount of chip RAM with a device like the
MegaChip 2003/500, This inserts into the
socket occupied by the Agnes chip. You
have to take it out first of course and it's not
a game for the fa ini hearted, believe me.
A new avenue of expansion has emerged
recently with ihe advent of the PCMCIA or
card slot in the AGGG/A12U0. PCMCIA
stands for Personal Computer Memory
Card International Association, and this is
the name of the body which developed and
supports Hus standard.
It was originally made for use with lap-
tops and electronic musical instrument^ Lull
smee the Amiga s were fitted with a PCM-
CIA interface, it now becomes possible to
use PCMG A memory cards,
This iift-pin slot isn't just a RAM card siol,
as it is a fully functioning interface to the
tomputer, capable of supporting a number
ot peripherals. But it's primary use will be to
expand the RAM of your machine, or as a
nomrs you can even forma! the card as a
disk. A sort of removable BAM drive with
its own battery backup" Obviously jhe best
advice is to just buy as much RAM as you
can afford and leave it at that. Bevond that,
you are actually fairly limited in the kinds of
! things you can buy for each machine.
Memory cards for the A 503 an? all much
Alike, and realty you can just go out and got
the first one which matches your price
range, Obviously the best configuration Lb
SMb of memory and a hand drive, but who
am ] to stretch you budget?
The is still a good deal, but there are
a number of expansion port options from
CAT which break the memory barrier with'
out breaking the bank. In the trapdoor you
can get options from Power Computings
Silka Shop and Ashcnm which are all reli-
able, cheap and easy to fit.
There are also some wackier options like
the Blizzard Board from Micro PACE which
adds 8 Mb of memory along with a faster
6BG(3l) style chip. This to installed into the
actual 68000 chip picket by first pulling your
68000 out and inserting this board. These
units are tor people with a few more quid to
bum and no fear of trashing their Amiga
when they putt out the hfWKlO.
On the A2000 your options are also mani-
fold. You could simply poke a MiCrobotics
8 Up board in and rack up BMb of Ih-bit
memory. You could use a combo card of
some kind to add a SCSI hard drive con-
troller which also has a sack of memory on
it. Or you could go the whole I vug, and get
something like the GYP G- Force 030 card
with 32-bit memory and an {#030 chip all
fs*r a meagre £399,
The A3G0G Is a little more dccoTrumidat-
tng, as you can actually insert your memory
chips right there onto the motherboard, up
to t SM h nd ng 4megabit SI MMs,
You can of course add more it you stick a
memory card into cue of the Zfuro slots, but
you have far fewer to play with in an A3000,
so this isn't perhaps the best option.
The A 1200 and A600 obviously have thei r
PCMCIA cards, but for the A 60(3 there are
variations or the trapdoor units for the A5O0
specially made for the machine. These are
made by the same firms - Power, Silica and
Ashcom - who make the A5GG units, and
run out at simitar prices of £20 to Ettl
The Al 2(1(1 has a lot more exciting
options, with of course accelerator boards
and 32-bit memory being top of the wish list.

VIDEO ■
F or regular AC readers, the name
Hama may already be a familiar
one, especially if your primary
computing pastime involves video, Hama
have a lung and iUushious history when it
comes to videography involving the Amiga
which they no doubt hope to maintain with
thei r in test release.
Like many German companies, Hama
Lire synonymous with quality.
Unfortunately the aforesaid attribute is
tn variably reflected in the price, which in
the past has made I lama hardware almost
exclusively the domain of pro .md semi -pm
i, ideogtaphers-
Hbwever., in somelhirvg of a break from
tradition the company have now launched
the new 2 L J2 genlock which offers a combi-
nation of compromise and quality which
targeted squarely Lit the videographic mid-
dle ground.
Even at the 2^2 still hovers danger-
ously close to if not above - the upper
limit of the average home budget.
However for this you do gel both compos-
ite and £A P H$, Am jga colour control, hard-
ware fading and four keying to mints. As
you car see, the new 292 is quite a looker.
Lin Lho back of the unit awaits a single
KGB 23 pin- video-in which is Liken
directly from the Amiga via a supplied
liable-
Moving from back lo from the control
panel is dominated by twin Scart ports
which handle all the Hama's video input
and output, between these sits the
Composite / S-VJ ES switcher white to the
:ii;hl l 1 waits another switch whit h toggles
between an A3000 and Amiga's that don't
proi’idea built- in flicker fixer.
Aside from the aforementioned I/Os
and mode switches, the only other ele-
ments are a pop-up fuse alongside a
rocker switch for the optional power
supply.
THROTTLE
Towards the from of the unit a single
snltle-stvle tader the must striking
feature f offering L i smooth and well
dampened method of moving between
r>bck and Live chosen keying mode
Al ting side three R C I B colour control
-nobs are used lo control the incoming
\miga graphics. Colour saturation can he
real problem with excessive levels caus-
ing serious blending as the Amiga colour
ppears to seep into the surrounding
v kieo.
lo avoid this you can always ensure
■at the colours within the Amiga ele-
vnt of the image are at or bdow 12 or
-2 in the Amiga's colour register.
However, thanks to the Hama's bu ll
- Colour control no such precautions are
quired as I he knobs provide complete
■nTml over each component in the RGB
Completely in control
Along the Iront of the urirt are the four key control buttons. Working from left to nght. itie
collection opens with a basic Amiga pm-lhrough mode which simply sends the Amiga sig-
nal untouched to the output video.
Next up comes the Video button which serves exactly the same purpose but sends a
clean video signal to the output recorder/monitor as opposed lo Ihe Amiga signal.
Next up comes Ihe koy dr invert button which as the name suggests makes odour zero
solid while the rest of the palette becomes iransparent - thereby producing a keyhole
effect with ihe video appearing through gasps in a colour ^ero foreground.
Last bul iwt least comes Hie mis option - otherwise known as overlay. This is by far the
most Famous and useful mode of them, all with the Amiga display appearing above the
incoming video as colour zero is removed iron the equation.
signal- A truly excellent feature which all
■serious genlocks should offer...
With the glamorous styling,. S-VHH
support, hardware fading and four keying
modes, success wOrus assured fur the 2^2.
Unfortunately however, although impres-
sive on paper in reality the new Hama
isn't all it cou Id be.
Whirling from the rear the most damn-
ing omission is. the lack of an RGB pass-
through. Apart from bargain basement
genlocks the a fore mentioned feature has
become widely regarded L is an essential
element of any self-respecting gents* k.
NIGHTMARE
Without a pass-through it s impossible
to set up new Amiga elements during pro-
duction, As a result using different pro-
grams would be a nightmare while even
simple page transitions using programs
like 5cala would be hit and miss at best.
Even worse than the hick of a pjiss-
Lh rough Is the very linufced fader control .
w Util ike the vast nirijofity of genlocks, the
fader simply transforms the output from
black to ihe desired eJtect.
In other words, there's no wax- to fade
between, the video and Amiga signal. So
il's impossible to slowly fade up the over-
laid Amiga graphics over a live video sag-
nal - arguably the most usable and
attractive gen Locking effect of them all
In short, flexibility is a real problem, but
if you simply want to use a single mode
throughout your production or alterna-
tively don't mind being forced lo hide Edo
and from a solid black there's no problem
- personally rd find it far too restricting.
Lastly comes the 292 ‘s Scan connections.
Unforhjnatelv .the unit doesn't come with
■
any connectors apart from the ..iforemein-
tioned 2Tpin RGB cable. As a result you're
forced into further expenditure on addi-
tional non-standard connectors, not to
mention a Scar Loom pa tlble VCR,
in short, the 1 Hama is by no means as big
a bargain as it may firs! appear, although
to be fair the actual keying rind image qua I-
it\ is excellent in both composite and
s-vhs.
I i you need high quality S*VH5 output
but don't necessarily require flcxibLe con-
trol it's .-] good investment. However if you
don't fit perfectly into this particular niche
in ihe market it's Well worth shopping
around or saving up for the
higher spec I lama unit,
even a fan

Covering subjects as diverse as wed-

dedicated to dogs) and kids, these
mages are so detailed that they won't ■

the iynchpin of the dance scene and
simultaneously almost completely
absent from the Jurassic, big names

Combine this purists love of the
music with the lad thal computers,
sequencers, electronics, Midi and
digital recording fill have their pari
to play in the making of virtually all
dance music, and t think we can
finally explain why so many
so-galled “rave’ 1 demos come my
way.,
Trouble is, most are pap. It's no
good taking the chart fodder of 2
Unlimited and Culture Beat and just
s apping it onto a disk. You have to

Spectrum
Emulator vl.7
Valty PD
Nut as the title might suggest simply one
version of this program, but a number, M
configured to run correctly on any Amiga
ft™ a bug-standard 1,2 A500 to an A40QQ
6004ft
This is the kind or PD I realty like. I
mean, who would release a Spectrum emu-
lator commercially? No-one. but who r d
pay a couple of quid to re-live their old
times on {heir Amiga? Lots of people, me
included.
On selecting and loading the correct ver-
sion for your Amiga, all that's left is to sir
back and watch the black border turn white
and then display, tn that much cherished
calculator-style font the *© 1982 Sinclair
Research Ltd" message.
It's all there and all the wme; The flash-
ing K for keyword, the one- touch com-
mands (although these are almost
impossible to use on an Amiga keyboard -
maybe the inclusion of a file to prinL out
showing where all the words are would
help?) - even the error messages are
identical.
Which isn't too Surprising really, as the
writer, who's written the whole thing in
assembly language, has duplicated the
complete Spectrum ROhl inside the
Amiga’s memory lo simulate the idk ver-
sion to perfection.
The most interesting and potentially
useful thing about this emulator is that, if
you have a sound sampler plugged into
your parallel prut which can sample fit
20kHz or aboye, it quite possible to
attach a tape recorder to if and load
Spectrum games in from cassette.
Ye^ that's right, all the oldies can be
Loaded and run (well, most of them any-
way), Looks Like it's up into the loft to dig
out that old portable cassette player and
bag of dusty games for a bit of a reunion,
don't you think?
Assassins
A1200 fax
Scorpion PD
For those of you new to all of this (and
you'd have to be to rot know this, believe
me). Assassins have re-leased, at last count,

it's not alien- that an original concept lulls
onto my desk In a brown envelope, but
that's whal happened this month, in the
fom of some information, a convincing
statistics sheet and a disk entitled
CLUBBS.
Ever wondered what H must be like lo
be a comms user? To have your computer
linked in to the outside world, and to be
able to "speak' by receiving and sending
electronic data to anyone wilh similar
equipment and ideas?
Comms makes ail of this possible -
comma freaks spend 1 hours (and pounds)
dialling bullelin boards, teavimg messages
in topic areas, receiving any messages
meant For lhem p and generally keeping in
touch with debates and in Formation on
fhmgs as diverse as world politics and
dreams (a quick look through Ihe list of
conferences available on possibly Britain’s
biggest bulletin board, CIX, conlirms the
diversity of inferesl covered).
However, good, fast modems are not
cheap, and if is very, very likely lhat you'll
end up running up a pretty horrendous
phone bill, which can take the glamour out
of Ihe whole thing rather quickly,
CLUBBS aims lo change all of this. A
system designed ta duplicate the above
scenario tor those without modems dr sec*
ond mongages, it is described as a “simu-
lated computer network, of varying ideas,
opinions and specialised information*,
updated and despatched monthly to
subscribers.
It works like this. You receive, each
month, a disk containing ihe latest mas-
sages from all of Ihe other subscribers,
which will include answers lo your last
contributions alongside other messages
questions and statements, all divided into
folders, just like real BBSs with their con-
ference areas
Fndeed, as the ‘feel" of a bulletin board
is governed more by the software you
choose to use on your machine than any
individual board, this system feels some-
what like you're simply using a proprietary
piece of comms software on a real BBS!
You send In your replies in Ihe Form of
text messaged which are then included
on the following disk. And as ihe system is
open to PC users too, you can be guaran-
teed a large and varied selection of sub-
scribers from ail over the counlry and,
hopefully, the world.
This is a refreshing idea, and judging
by the response CLUBBS have had
already, looks set to become a storming
success. What I want lo know is; What will
Ihey do when it expands to such a poinl
where they'll be mailing you dozens of
disks each month r > I suspect well soon
see!

Lemmingsbench
Pi 24, MBS
This is by lar the most original animation this monih,
which is not to say ii s outstanding in any way, fust lliat
what it does it does well, and ii doesn't include polygons
bouncing off Hie side nl the screen whiii doing 17 more
in credible things, all to the I one ol some sexed-up
teenager's rumblings across the bottom of Hie screen.
Of course, t could bo being more than a trifle cynical,
but when you sea Lemmingsbench and chuckle at the
gentle humour of it all. vector madness seems all but a
distant fading bad dream...
The screen is a typical Workbench jetty, except it has
an «con on the desktop, which just happens to look
remarkably similar to the one which the Lemming* jump
out of In the game of the same name, and an open win-
dow containing another icon - home.
Our I'ttle chums appear Horn the first icon, only to splat
themselves in their tall. However, Mr Pilot Lemming is
already building a bridge to save them, and this is a start
ot a journey which will take our pack of intrepid and fear-
less explorers to ifte bottom left ol the "Workbench", up to
the side of the window, through the roof, along Hie click
bar and safely into the home icon.
This has all the graphics and style ot the real thing ,
except all you do is sit back and watch our normally clue-
Suss friends having a goad go at the whole she-bang
themselves.
IMow what would be good would be a game whereby
the lemmings do their own thing... until you interfere. Then
you cautd spend you time deliberately hindering a set ol
creatures determined to make their way to safety. Anyone
feel up to it?

Assassins series has carried on where
others have failed nut least because of the
exwllertt presentabonH of their product*.
On loading, vou are invariably faced
with a slick, function key-activated
menu, and are almost guaranteed that at
least one of the gamo will be well worth
your time and effort.
However^ A 1 200 owners who've
upgraded from a Workbench 2.0 nr ear-
lier machine may well have been di^ap-
pointed to find that - along with many
commercial releases - the Assii*sins
games do not work on their machines or
at least some of them.
This is where A120O Fix comes in.
Containing mrt one but a plethora ot pro-
gram* designed to get i nearly) a l! of the
Assassins releases working, this is essen-
tia] for anybody with more that a few of
their disks and an A 1 2110.
It comes with comprehensive on-disk

wove come to expect) Workbench, and

CLR CLU14
It's a while since I’ ve reviewed a PD
wordpruccswr, basically because r with a
few exceptions, if you've seen one,, you've
seen them all - cut-down version* of com-
mercial offerings carrying some but not
all of the functions available for a little
more of your hard-earned cash.
However, 3 feel that this new wordpro-
cessnr deserve* a mention, if only because
it is a CLR program, which means even
though it costs a little more than usual
E'D r you can be sure of something special,
and that it is just that - something special.
Should you wish to get you r hand on a
word processor which duplicates nearly
all of the functions you're most likely to
find on a commercial offering., then this is
definitely the one for you.
You can load, save and merge (nice)
Ascii and the program s proprietary tor-
mat, and delete file* m disk (good for fry-
ing to to a full floppy); there's full
Find and Replace, including the ability to
count the number of occurrences of a
word; the Cursor Go lo not only lets you
go In the start or end or a page, but also to
a percentage - if you know the pa ssage
you're 3 to is about two-third* of the way
through your tux I, 67% should do the
trick here, for instance.
There are to help you with your
actua l text creation, too. Want to insert the
current date or time? The program will
add it for you. Want hi put ten of your
most-used phrase* (the cheque's in the
post being a fave) scane where where they
are easily accessible? The function
key* can be assigned to handle the lot of
them.
As well as the program you get a
guide, a summary, a tutorial a liard disk
install - in short, practically everything
you could pay £30-£50 or much more for
It can even use the Amiga's speech facili-
ties to read your text to you - although
this option is not recommended.
AH in all, this is one of the be*t PD
(well, nearly f J D) wordproces*or* on the
market, and would be ideal if you have a
printer with self-assignable fonts (font
handling i L - not Powertext's strong point i
t K'erall., a great value program.

ColorBurst
this hand scanner has tour modes ot
operation: TextflJne Art, Dithered Colour,
Greyscale, Colour and Supar Colour All ot
these modes can scan up to a resolution ot
403dipi with (he exception of the later two
which have a maximum resolution ol
200dpi.
There is also a switch to set (he resolu-
tion of the scanner to between a quarter
and one times the maximum possible lor
the current mode.
As an optional extra Ihe Migraph OCR
Jr software that is bundled with the
M, graph OCR mono scanner is available.
The standard scanning soltware is very
basic and allows you to do no more than
digitise in colour, select the display mode
and save your pictures, in order to get the
most out of this scanner an image manipu-
lation program will also be required.

Amiga Computing
Getting real life photographs and drawings from paper onto
your computer screen need not be difficult or expensive.
Colin Yarnall opens up the scanning market
T he mos-l obvious us£ for 3 scsinngr is. to digiti&& picii-ir&s
lor use in desktop publishing However, scarfed
images can be employed as texture wraps and
backdrops in ray-lcaoed pictures and aiwnahons
They can even he used as the basis lor sprites m home btev,
computet games but a growing use takes the form ol pictorial
databases
Mosl Amiga databases are now able lo store images
text which is an ideal way of camming your photos so ihat you
can easily find a negative
Any factual mtormal«on thaf you require can be associated with
a picture whether it is a family history database pop star portfolio
or Top Tfiimp^siyle card index
Theta are iwo lypes of scanner: mono antf colour A ^ with it\e-
visrons, colour is more expensive than black ana wh to because ol
more complex hardware Apart from thecosl ol a scanner, boar in
mind lhal you may also need some extra RAM in otde^ to use the
hardware So its full capability
Desktop publishing will need a tosa* ol seven or eight
'Megabytes lor logout work and tour or five for mono li possible
to digitise images with less memory hut li will become fiusirating
and unbomfodable.
AlphaScan
four different packages are available in the
AlphaScan range of mono scanners. Each one
contains the same 400dpi hardware but i>
bundled with a different selection of
software.
The basic AlphaScan costs and Is sup-
plied with Scan £: Save software': AlphaScan
] 'Ills is £129.95 and comes with Touch-Up;
AlphaScan OCR costs £139 and is supplied
with Scan & Save and OCR, and AlphaScaii
OCR bins, at 069, is supplied with Touch-
Up and OCR. All models haw Merge-It soft-
wan' as standard.
Mergt-It is included in each package and
allows two partial scans of a large image to be joined together. The
program displays an edge strip of each image, allowing them to be
mowd around and overlaid, saving the resulting image directly to
While it is certainly a useful utility, it is possible lo produce an
image- that is so large tiut it would require more' memory than you
have to display it. This is particula rly annoying because there is no
warning that an attempt to generate an oversifted image is being
made,
Both Scan & Save and Touch -Up contain the scanning routines
and are essentially the same program. The key difference is that
the integral paint package and mosl of the image manipulation
tool* have been disabled in Scan & Save. However, dto should be
no great loss to users with access to a standard paint package
The scanning routine performs its fe^ well but is let down by Wx
image size gadget which does not work properly. This usually
causes the software to produce images of the wrong size whid
wastes a lot of hme.
The scanner has a setting for text scanning which produces i
closer facsimile of documents than the other image settings, The*
images can then be processed by the special OCR software whir*|
has two modes of operation.
In manna] mode, the program makes a best guess at unrecogius-
able characters and displays
The other differ-
ence is that Touch-
Up is Workbench 3
compatible while
Scan & Save is not.
Clearly, if YOU own
an A 1 200 or are
thinking of getting
Line you should
make sure that you
buy a package that
includes Touch-Up.
(hem together with the origi-
nal portion of the scan. 1 he
user may then enter the cor-
rect characters or confirm
that the program's best
guess was right.
In automatic mode, the
opportunity to correct the
program's interpretation is
left until the whole docu-
ment has been processed
and stored as an Ascii file.
It may then he loaded into
ci word processor and
further scanned using a spelli
checker.

Pyramid Mono
hand scanner
As with the other mono scan-
ners in this article, tht 1
Pyramid model tan scEin at
resolutions of 100, 200, 34)0
and 400dpi It also has thi?
Usual three modes for pho-
tographs and tine for text,
The soffware performs the
basic function of scanning
and saving and that's about
Lilt il Inis been designed to
do. however it is easy to use
j_nd appears to be well written.
As with the Pandaol scanner there is no software support for
ptkal character recognition. Apart from the obvious uhv Lit the text
kiltie for digitising the written word it can also be il^ for digitis-
ing line art so it is not as useless as u might ritsi appear,
Whml really stands out about the hardwnre is that the scanner
interface has an integral switch that allows a printer be cumnectod
' 1 vour system at the same tirin' as the scanner. This saves on both
cable swapping and time
wasted powering down to
change the connections.
Ultimately it will save
wear and tear on the parallel
port for users who own both L i
printer and scanner.

Power Colour Scanner
! this product looks vaguely familiar it's
probably because it consisis of the same
scanning hardware ag the Migraph
CcfarSurst but is badged differently and in
another colour. However, unlike its rival,
ihe Power model does not plug inte Ihe
parallel (primer) interface.
Instead A5D0 and A50G Plus users
have to plug the interface unit into ihe side
of Iheir machine. Hand drive owners and
jserg of other A500 side expansions will
be pleased to hear lhat Ihere is a pass-
Ihrough interface so that they can use their
exiling peripherals concurrently,
With the exception of Ihe A8QG and
A 1200, which are incompatible with the
Power scanner, the interlace unit fils into a
Zdrra slol oti other machines The suppled
software is more comprehensive than that
ol its rival and can save in resolutions of up
to 24-bit.

The Sharp JX 1 00 is a flatbed colour scan-
ner which as capable of digilising images
up lo a maximum ol TOG by ibDmm. All
lhal is required is to place il on top of a
picture and align it wrth the viewing
window.
Three passes of ihe scanning window
are made - one lor each ol the primary
colours lhal define each pixel The passes
and are automatic once (he process has
been slarted.
Because the scanning is automated il
leads lo mong accurate digitising by elimi-
nating the possibility of the head wobble
which can occur with hand held scanners.
Apart from being: able to digitise in its
highest resolution o! 18-bit colour it can
also be used in three-bit, six-bit and mono.
The results are lar superior to those
achievable with hand scanner, yet thg
price does nol put rt oul ol reach ol the
home computer market.
Photographs are just Ihe right size lor
Ihe scanning window but there are times
when a smaller area is lo be digFtised. The
software permits the size ol image to be
defined hurt does nol appear to handle pic-
tures that are larger than the scan window.
Brightness is controlled by the program,
rather than via hardware* as is the colour
balance. Once ihe onworic has been set
up. a single pass mono preview scan can
be made which will save time when the
final colour scan musl be aligned
accurately.
Net only can the software handle both
portrait or landscape and images with
user-defined sfre reduction, but il also has
no less than five types of dither to further
enhance the linal output

The Panda ai hand scanner is exactly the same
device the Alphastan but has a different
badge. As with its twin, there are three photo
settings, one text, a density control from 100 to
400dpi and a contrast wheel. The software,
however, is distinctly different to that of the
AfphaScan,
It consists of a single program which is eas-
ier to use but does not allow the option of A
scanning in portrait or landscape as its rival j
does^ This part of Ihe program Is simply ^
designed to allow images to be scanned and
saved .
A paint studio has been Included so that pic*
lures can be tidied up as well as clipped, rotated
and flipped before being saved, In this respect it is
better than Migraph s Scan & Save and equivalent to
Simple tips for quality scanns
Hand scanners suffer from an Inherent problem of
wobble which shows up \n finished images as
skewed lines. The problem is exacerbated by ihe
original artwork slipping and sliding as you try to
pass the scanner over it.
The simplest solution is to break out the masking
tape and mount the work on a plain background-
Stick this to a firm work surface then use the Yellow
Pages and a phone book as edge guides to prevent
wobble.
Rather lhan risk damaging the original work by
using tape, a sheet of thick clear plastic may be laid
over it and the phone books held down with Blu-Tac.
If you can't get hold of and sheet plastic you could
spend a few minutes carefully dismantling a trained
picture and borrowing the glass for a while,
□f course it pays to treat shoe! glass with respect
(and a pair of gloves) so don t attempt this if you are
at all accident prone, Amiga Computing will not be
held responsible for any accidents - j 1 you attempt
this you do so entirely at your own risk!

Power Mono Scanner
Epson CT-6500
Did we say that the AlphaScan and Pandaa* scan-
ners were (wins? Well it seems there are triplets!
The mono Power Scanner is exactly Ihe same in
every respect as the Last two except that it has
been badged with a different name - someone in
Taiwan must be raking it in.
Ot course the software side ol things is com-
pletely different to that supplied with the other
models, Apart from being able to scan, the pro-
gram includes an integral art package with the
obligatory Undo (unction.
Images may be rotated and resized with program
options available from the menu strip, as keyboard
short-cuts and icons. 01 the three packages containing
this model of scanner, this one is the easiest to use and has the most comprehensive
manual OCR software is not provided as standard but is available as an optional exira
Computing
Without a doubt the Epson GT-6SOO leaves the other
scanners in this article way behind, In terms ot hard-
ware it is the largest and most robust - resembling a
desktop photocopier, a use to which it can be put if it Supplier;
is connected directly to a printer. Power
ll is capable of scanning single sheets ol up to Ad size Compirtincj
at 600dpi in 24-bii colour with just a single pass ol the
scanning head! Obviously a device like this will eat its way Price; £799
through all the memory you can throw at it.
Power Computing supply (heir own software called PowerScan 3 which has support for
AGA machines, Images may be rotated, flipped skewed, inverted and cropped as well as
being touched up using the integral art facilities. Scans can take quite a while to produce
because of the amount of detait involved so the Inclusion of a quick scan preview option is
particularly welcome, In order to accommodate limited RAM. images may be reduced by up
to 50 percent, OOP is not catered tor which is e pity as the scanner is the only one in this
article capable Ol handling full Art sheets without the need to pin images.

I met Team 1 7 suprer-fto Mariyn Brown recently

bul on ypuc second play you'll be totally engrossed
os that dangerous addictive factor kicks in. Indeed
this is perhaps one of the mosl additive games I
hcfve played m my hfe, aver the last few weeks I've
payed nothing else 1
It is very similor to Bubble Both e a^d you

There are Few differences between 13 and ih

extended laser thingy fhad you could swing around
your body (yes, you |uil try and explain it in

This raw handy rope helps you reach
higher platforms with the minimum of fass
and dso lets you swing across large
chasms, if you're really dever you
cun swing up to the roof to avoid
parliculary nasty buddies and

A fot has a I read/ been said abou
Diggers, if being ihe first CD32
relecHe fo reach the computing maga-
zines and ane af the firsf fo feature in
a package for th* launch of Ccfnrnod&re's new
console
Many things were said of Diggers by the com-
puler pros*, nal all of fhem very fair. Far be if fot
me- to be loo opiniongl&d an the subject of afoars
feelings an ihis product, but having read some of
fhe reviews I can't escape a certain fee-ling of
wariness.
It saerns fo me shot many reviewers either
didn'i have ihe Nm* to examine its merils proper
ly or wiere *00 busy bokmg for relatively superfi-
cial tricks that the CD32 machine is capable of.
Normally I w&Jdn'i broach a Sub eel I ike fois
during a review, but in ihn case I foe il relevant.
It makes you wonder who! rype of marks Diggers
would have generated if if hadn i been the scape-
goat for people who wanted to see lonlastic
sprigs and graphics on fhe CD 32 I dI&o mokes
C think wha* type of response it would have
greeted wilh had it come out on disk prior
to compact disc
Having played Diggers extensively, 1 wonder
exactly what some people ore locking for in o
htie. How many times have all and sundry duped
ad suckexed Into falling for great graphics aid
I (hie or obwfafely no gameplay?
Haw many do we have to mention to make the
point? Space Ace cud Dragon* Loir are two fine
examples and there are dozens more ot ihem
which lie redundant af ihe back of a dusty
wafdrdbe - money dawn the drain,
The point of al' ihis is that Diggers is bloody
brillian I and while seme magazine shols don't
make it look like ihe proverbial bee's knees, lei
me leh you lhai il ii.
The other fhing lhai needs addressing is the
number of comparisons that have been mode
between Lemmings and Diggers. Anyone who
comes to this conclusion has pfbbahly not even
played ihe game at all and has looked at it and
said something along ihe lines of comparing foe
rdalrve- sizes of sprites.
Fair enough , both sets of characters are simi-
lar in height, buf that's where the comparison
ends. In Lemmings one is pneseniod w-lk a prob-
lem -and a sol of characters which can be
assigned a duty, with the goal being to discover
ihe way through various obstacles. Once the levd
has been worked out there's little or no point in
returning to it ever again.
Dinars is so very different lo this idea lhai il
leaves Lemmings tunnelling in the dark For one,
in Digged ihe re are no sir id guidelines for
achieving swots*; you can go ofcod your busi-
ness in a combination of ways
More important though is. the fact lhai you can
continual* y return to the same level and investi-
gate different areas lo achieve your goal.
Conversely you coo vis4 the same bcahon ond
employ a different strategy, This gives the game
an everlasting durability and on untold quantity
of possibilities.
The whole point of ihis exercise is to soy foal

Stories of the planet larg's mineral wea th

resources and ores that it hod become a miners'

European Champions differ! from rwsls like
Gaol and feasible Soccer in its graphics and pre-
sentation. For aoe, in EC the Sprite of the char-
acters are a lot larger and detailed than those in
either of its rivals.
The characters being larger means rfiai unlike
Semi you only gel a portion of the pitch on your
K/flen at one particu-a r Nme, However, a radar
grye* you an overview of the positions of the
players and the player in posses-
sion. This is the kind of tod j
could done with on a cold
Sunday morning whan
a 1 7- slon e abattoir
worker is beorrng
down on me.
The other
thing Id mention is
that to alt intents
and purposes EC is
two gomes,'
because you can
iew play from an
overhead view or ihe
can lem pur dry horizontal
IefHvght view.
The ploy itself takes a littfe com-
ing la- terms with, iiuro Chomp uses a slightly dif-
ferent system lo other fooly titles you might have
come -nto contact with pmio usly.
For one il contains on automatic corner,
ihraw-in and shoot system, which tokos you a
little by Surprise al first. This may sound a littfe
odd, especially shooting, but it does produce
some spacloaJor finishing, Its alia worth point-
ing aul that oirto^shoot can be overridden,
With on oulo- throw ond comor system it also
means that while a computer player is String the
throw,, you can control a player the throw will be
directed al.
Passing also hois some rather fresh approach-
es to it. For exempt “ping-passing" enables you
te pick ouk a player,, an or off screen, for a ptreh

e have already seen that the key to
ARexx r s dynamic pntenrial is its ability Do
create new variables nn-tbe-fly,. csr under
user control, thus effectively blurring the distinct ton
between what is *pF«gram n am I what ls “data"
This feature sets it apart from more traditional Ian-
guages like Basic; C and Pascal, where the distinction us
pretty dear
We have seen liow variables on Ik- created in niid-
program with CQmprjund symbols and second level suh-
ri-Ei tut ton, and also how they can be created by
INTER FRET mg a character string erf valid ARexx code,
t’or those of you familiar with Basie, this is like l lav-
ing the so-called "direct mode' available at all limes.
For instance in Basic direct mode you can <k> something
ilke:
> a » 5 : PIIHf 1 * a
and you should get a result of 21 printed out. However,
you cannot enter the same string in mid-program and
expect a result. In Altera, any input
data passed to the INTERPRET
instruct ion is immediately interpreted
and, in a sense, added to The
program - like m the mini-inierpreter
routine:
tialLsed state by using die instruction DROP,
This time, we will have an in-depth look to see just hern
ASexs handles the symbols that represent its variables, ^ ■
will also lcx>k at some of l 3 ie functions provided which arc
helpful for dynamic programming, as well as some functinn
for analysing data.
A dear understanding of these ideas will help you avoid
many of the common pi i falls of Ahcxx programming, and h
extremely useful for the practical application of ARexx.
Now, we all know that AKera is a “typelesT language -
that is, you do not have to declare beforehand whether vnui
variables will contain single characters, strings., floating poini
decimals or wJiatcver. The language, takes cue of this auid-
matlcilly. We also know that all Altera data are handled
strings of characters.
How does this affect the symbols that represent variables
After all, we have just seen that data can be used as fxut of
Flexibl
/**/ OPTIONS PROMPT ?
M FMEVtR UNTIL dtt 4 = 'h ft'
PARSE PULL da la
JhTFfiPIFi dits
END
we can enter ihe foRiiwing string as data, and we will
get the expected result;
1 i - 3 ; sat 7 * I
In this wax- Altera can pfewide a mini-AKera calculator
at any time. Nine that any existing variable called h a" in
the program wilt now Ik rnodifted, so while tills tech-
nique ss very powerful^ ii is also potentially tkngen>us!
Of course, ax w-ell as being able to create variables at
any time, AKexx can also reset them to their unini-
new variable names, and that the supposed g^p between dau
and program variables is easily brulged.
Does ibis mean that any string can he the name of a vari-
able? Well actually no,,, there are some rules to be followed
which we xvill set in a moment.
Intuitively then, once you liave used ARexx for a while,
you might guess that there ure four different "types' - ot sym-
bols. As well as quoted strsugn i which are enclosed in either
single or double quotation marks), there apf^ear to be; I
uninitialised variables, L variables with assigned values, 3
numeric variables, <a special case of 2) whidi allows antle
nieiic operations, and 4. compound symbols, such as those
used for arrays, rabies, and so on. [si actual fact, the dawifica-
Power LOGO
For some time now I neve been watching, and occasional-
ly an interesting Ireeware Amiga anguage called
Po^etlOGO. It Is written by American author Gary
Teacboul and has been coos^tently hn proving; now, in
ve^smci ^ 3. 1 was pleased to see that ARexx support has
been added.
LOGO should not be dtemissad as a language, its fea-
tures tor list processing, recursive programming, and turtle
graphics can teach prospective programmers a loi
Rowe r LOGO has gone fat in addressing many of the
weaknesses of the original language, and adding many
powerful new ideas
Languages I ke LOGO and its parent, LISP have a con-
cept cal ec a 'daemon", which is b^sicalty a tost loop that
runs iny-s^y and monitors events which may nappen at
any time, m a hign-eve! interrupt. This is useful fCNr getting
nput from thi ngs tike moused iCks. hot-keys and The like
You can now a -so hnk your tovoume ARexx-coitTOfible
text eotor .v th LOGO so. that you can run prog tans
o rectfy, uv> Shout having to go ttirough the save load cycle
If you have a I Ttte LOGO piogrammmg experience, and
some suitable documentation, such as Commodore's
Ar: Q 2 RQ\f K&M& manuats, you ca^ even see how to
implement a message receiving loop in LOGO. Thts is a
standard technique for the Amiga, no matter what lan-
guage you use.
PowerLOGO is a very capable language, diawmg on
many USPTike features, and far superior io the "schOOk
room" LOGOs usually avaitabte. It supports Amiga sound
and graphics, and would be very useful fu r prototyping or
experimenting wilti software. The author also recom-
mends some excellent hooks on the subject
While usijng PmerLOGO to write an application frtghl
be dtsadvaniageous because ol the interpreter size and
(sack of) speed, there are some deltmle advantages, par-
ticularly the simplicity and tniegraiion ot she system.
Many of the Intuition features {such as windows and
menus} are aval able without having to resort to trie corr-
pfexitos of system programming, so it is a good way to cut
one's teeth on some of the mam Amiga principles with
minimum bother.

types of symbols Lire recognised.
Simple symbols
Fixed Nymhnls
Stem s>TqbdIs
Compound symbols
Simple symbols are those we most usually think of as names of
variables, although theue is no particular reason to do other
dun convention. They can lie made up c ?J Liny combination of let-
ters (tipper or lower ease), digits and the lour characters ! ? _ and
S, Tl tey may not sum with a numerical elij4.i1 or contain a full stop.
ARexx is not ease sensitive, so any mixture of upper and lower
case characters may be used In fact, ARexx promotes any lower
case characters that make up the symbols to uppercase, so that
MyVar" is ihe same ;is "MYVAH" then 1 are two different ptad-

Along yvith the INTER PR HI
induction* the Value!) Function is
ork of the more powerful tools for
dynamit programming - in a way
1 hey are compli^wtary tu each
other Whereas the funner allows
new variables to l>u created while
j program is running. I lie taller
allows the value of the variables to
be accessed in mid-program Thfc
is again similar to having a “direct
mode" avail-
able at all
times.
T h

hiliEies here. If die symbol represents a variable dun has already
been initialised (for instance vart = ’siIm:'? tlven its value Is obvi-
ously the one given to it- However, if il has not ye! been mu
a.dised, then its value is its name in uppercase,
fixed sy mb: 1I1 may lxgin wid* ,1 digit or a full sn«p If; ■■
mainly used by ARexx for representing numbers N<ne thal they
are not restricted feo digits only, and may contain letters, as for
example in engineering notation , 200 E- 1 .
Tiding to assign a value to Iked symlxiLs Ls usdess and will
luive no effect on ARexx, even though it will he accepted. So a
statement like “labc * is; siu labc" will merely give you
H IABC"-
Finally we have stems and compound symbols which we will
not look at in detail, since we already did so m the last issue.
The only things [ will stress once again, are ill at if you DROP a
stem you DROP all its associated compound symbol, and that -
unlike simple symbols - the nride 3x1ns of li compound symh il
are case sensiii^e. and may even lx: composed of stnngs dial arc
riot legal symbol names (see November Issue)!
When an expression is evaluated in Ata, all the symhoK arc
finst evaluated or "expanded ' Ln a strict left-foright order. You
can see ibis in detail by using ARexx's excellent tracing facility,
with the 1 ( intermediates) option.
Add the line TRACI I to your program, and as it runs, it will
pause al each line, waiting for you to press Enter before it contin-
ues. AKexx supplies three functions to keep track of symbols anil
variables - SytnbdK ). Value! and Datatype! ).
Suppose we Want to tind out whether a particular symbol has
t>een initialised as a variable. The Symbol 0 Function will return
one ot three values depending fin the status ol ihe supplied sym
Ixil. II rite symbol has already l'»een initialised ax a variable, the
function mums the string 11 VAR"
if the symbol has not been in il ia Used, or is a fixed symbol (that
is, if is meant to lx: taken literally), the function returns “LTT , If
the supplied value is not even x legal symbol in ARexx iken die
value 11 BAD r is returned.
The following lines (typed at the CU) iUuttrjte this:
fuse you total lv 1:

tion returns

since they are merely tile values of variables. "Ull- third one, . i is
the value ol the string ~b n which is ihc variable in "h , |i>t like the
second one,
Finally, the last one is Ehe value of the variable in 'be in other
words the string 'a; whose value is “111" since it exists as an ini-
tialised variable. Pbewl
Don't worry r if you don't understand this at once, it is more difil ■
ail i to describe than to grasp. With a little practice you will si»on
gel the hang of it. Here is another. simpler example
>n H i = 1 apitats 1 i HT a ifalyriri 1
> capital CAPITALS
Here, Value! a) gets promoted to capitals, since it is an uninitialised
variable. Note that ValueCaM means exticdy foe same thing as a.
Finally, ARexx provides the Daiuiypcl ) function, predictably
enough for analysing data. When used with one argument this
function return s’one of the two values "MUM or UHAKL depend-
ing on whether the data is a number or not
However, the function can also he used wiLh a second argu-
ment, which is a keyword to determine whether the data belongs
to a certain group. The function then returns either "lTTfuei or
'IT! False).
The following keywords are recognised, and mai lx: ablirm isiicd:
Alphanumeric - mixed letters and numbers. Liny case; Binary - (is
and Is only; Lowercase. Uppercase; Mixed - i.e. upper and lower
case: Numeric - valid numbers (any notation); Symbol - valid
ARexx symbol; Whpie - whole numbers only; X - hex digils ((> K k
For instance;
In this, the
second part of
our discussion of
dynamic code,
we look at the
way ARexx
handles the
symbols which
represent its

these data types or groups arc meaningless to ARexx, since
it is tyjieless, they can be very useful to the programmer.

OGRAMMING
- ■ i h 1 1 I'miii Oi'v numbers with fractional parts ImlL we will leave
this until later ort in the senes
For the present kTs take a look a! computer logic so that Wt
may build on it Lind use it in decision- making and program
loops. Yon may already be familiar with the concept til Boolean
logic, in which case this tutorial should not he too alien. If ikjl,
■ » .tr with us, js understanding computer logic is an essentia]
i"pet1 of the pcugrammi ng process.
Boolean variables can only hold two values, Tme and False,
h; opemhoEis slut may lx applied are NOT, AND„ OH and she
result of one of these will be a IxxJean value, Traditionally, these
-.rations ure illustrated using truth tallies:
NOT
A
NUT A
False
True
True
False
The result of NOT h is the opposite of A.
- unsigned a value is by using comparison operator
- equal
> greater than
< less than
>= greater than or equal to
<= leas rlian or equal to
o mm equal tt>
Imagine a stock control system whereby an item of stock is re-
■fcrt.'d I i 1 >l numlvj '.-I in -ms i.iiTentk in -crock i?. Uss lhan a
threshold value. A Boolean variable cm lit' set
according to (he amount of items currently in
stock and used to indicate whether more
mxids should he ordered.
\\ e w ill also assume that the stock room Jus
a maximum storage space for III) items and
lh;il if there are more than this an siix'k its tinte
h if a sale!
h m ?k je listing 1 . Apart from showing how
Boolean values may lx used, we have also
introduced a few more statements to our pro
grim which need mu ne explanation.
Hie first ol these idtrjduces the concept ul
constants As the name suggests, li con si. ml is j
sLicn. value which will not change ihmuglmul
the execution of a program. The keyword
. msi used to indicate that what follows is a
Ih i T constant definitions
In nuf program we have defined two of
these - MSN Lind MAX.) whose values we will
refer 1 1 1 ait never change We could have just
used die facial values I % and 100 thmcighouf
Truth test
the program However die Ix-neiit of using constants b tltat all reftr-
ena s lo these values cun lx 1 changed in one go by altering die cod-
-.Lmi definiEicxrvi This is easier than tracking down each occtlitilL'e ■ -I
the numlvrs IS and h o i? ilk- nanmium anil maximum s hick levels
are changed at a later date.
Imagine the chaos that would result if we used I item I values m a
large pritgram and had to figure out whether a number realh did
refer to stock levels or whether it represented some other value used
fi ir another purpose.
As a general mle cil thumb use constants wlkmever \y issiMe It
will make malntaimnee ol your programs much easier. Going kick
lo Boolean optTitofs again, we have used Iwo statements to del e r-
mine the values ol the Boolean variables reorder and sale?. I In.- way
that these work is that the expression in brackets Ls os jJilllll I with
the result of either True or False being assigned to the variables.
These statements car look quite daunting to a first lime pmgram-
mer blit all that is required b to interpret the assignments in the cor
red way. The first of these is:
reorder := ^tucllnfcl <= H 3 H 3 ;
If the sock level is less than or equal to MIN the result is True,
otherwise False*. 11 ie result Is then stored In the Boolean variable
reorder. Oi course the actual result will de fiend upon the value Ltd
tite slock evd which is entered at the .stun erf iJ>e program.
hmlh wv luve introduced a simple form of the if statement -
which will lx? the subject of next month's tutorial.

I though nmsivdy popular in its day, the question is:
Can the new DMCS really stand up to the onslaught of
power products which have taken die high ground dur-
ing its absence?
All hough the new Vision I k KL. sts some major Lrnpnowiix^nis, die
f Kisk‘ concept is pretty much iikmticsal to that ol its praJeces&ur As
dder nusos may recall DMCS was - and indeed still Ls - strictly
dedicated to nutuiun,
Unlike the big names in such as FJara&Pipes Piu and KCS, DMCS
does not double up as a seejuera r. As .l result, .ill noiL-> within w
-Lore need lo he added ! . ia the mouse., or alternatively loaded in .is
a SMLjS file - assuming your sequencer or tracker laipports SMI >
HlCpIlL
Thankfully hlectronk Arts have thrown in a third optioci in the
tbmi of limited Midi support Unfortunately the program won’t
accept Midi files directly but ii will take jwne jiifamoatkiii fiom a
Midi keylxsard. As li result you can luxik up j Midi keyboonl via d
standard ifflerikt- anil play notes directly into die sc ore. A particu-
larly pleasant aspect of tills approach is die ability of the software to
iiL.th'ic tin 1 duration of key depre.sstons - thereby varying the nttft
i-ngih as liny enter* the stave.
Tiie programs audio feedback can also tike advantage uf the
dtili LXinnection by assigning the output of either single or multiple
staves to die Midi channels and presets of yxiur choice.
The only restriction is dim each Stave must rewiain im itv original
channel (although die presets - or voices - a in lx: altered at any
[Mint within die piece), .it winch point the program change will
appear in the score as a raw-definable voice name.
Obviously like any self- respecting Amiga package, internal
si mnds can also play a jian when called upon. En tael to nuke ihi
X'st uf the machine's internal lalents a kiiriy impressive collection o!
pimples cadie as part of the program's support software,
MACRO GENERATION
Olwfeiusly inifjnjved Midi support and n facelift for the interface
.iren'l die only changes. In (act one of the mast notable improve-
ments is the addition of a new macro pu I down menu.
As the name suggests, macro generation and playback are the
primary concern, which in practice allow 1 you (0 first initiate a
wording process, apply as many edit functkmH as you wish and
then halt die recording This new macro can then be appended to 4
unction key and executed whenever iieres^iry
Although not exactly earth-shattering, macros - like a Midi key-
board - can .save hours of tedious repetition, and of course the)
can lie saved and recalled on demand, while yet another innovation
brings Aftexx into the DMCS equation,
When it conies to editing, most time is spent pointing and click-
ing on the accompanying tool window which prmsdes instant
acres* to fust about every oombdriaticure of note and rest imaginable.
Better still, the window uill evolve depending ujxin which edit
mode is active, allowing resdutkai up to the 64th note and a lull
range of dynamics, which can Ik: applied cither individually or 10
entire groups of notes, Lyrics um also lx 1 added where necessary
while existing notes and nests can be moved or erased at will
wliedier they lie double dots, 64th notes. se|itupleis or wluiever
eLse.
As ft ir riv j interface itself, things appear pretty similar to the origi-
nal with the main score window dominating die vast majority of the
h rcen accompanied by a miniature mouse-driven keybotud lor on-
screen note addition.
t nlike some of the combination sequ e nter/ nt Ha [ ion packages,
1 1MCS offers a constant Wysiwyg display of the printed page, Like
.my printing job this requires a certain amount of setting up to co-
oidinaie berth primer and screen but once defined you 're guaran-
teed perfect output every time.
in general DMCS is fairly impressive with easy editing and
impressive ■ printouts, apparently all you could want from a notation
package. However five years is a long time, during which the
Amiga music scene has really hlussomed

Anyway, the system is really simple to own and use First you

This isn’t a crippled version oi the program... but (and as ytm will

sort of software dongle tailed a "licence".

to ensure that once the file expires you can't use the Nicola pri>

Sort of Twisr-your-ann-wa re (I'm kidding, tricky) Hie fee is

eetlng deadlines cnn be li tough job, especially
when a layout eon mi ns 1 1 els of fiddly I jits thal are
repeated page after page. What you need is to get
your publishing program to do the nasty bits, leaving you 10 get
obi with the creative side of tilings.
The two top' Amiga publishing programs incorporate two dif-
ferent tools For this - PruFage employs AKexx in the form of Its
genies* PageStreum Ills a macro system using its own seiipiLng
language
OF the two, the ge flies are more powerful* but macros
require much le^s effort to program. Both systems can be
assigned key presses.
Although initially quite technical looking, ProFagc's genics
arc lirtle more than scripts containing embedded ProPage and
AKexx commands. There is a notion that unless you are an
expert in the Afiexx programming language* creating geuies is a
dilli cult task. Not so.
Gerties can lie as simple as a single ProFage command or as
complicated as rite genres that come with the program. The
more you want die genie to do. the more commands you are
going t o have program it iu carry, out rind the greater knowl-
edge of AHexx you will need. Let's uke a kxjk at two examples
oN bow geuies tan do the work for you.
A document that Mima ins many pieces of text that have to be
styled differently to that of the main copy can take a while to
lay om. The M> can he made easier by creating a set of tags for
cadi style.
Then, to enable you to apply these lags to the text using a
key prevs, you will need lu make a genie. This would contain a
comment M the first line and then the ProPage command to
apply the tag, which in this case would he "call SecSryleTagitj^:-
namer.
RAPID WHITE-ON-BLACK
But you car do more than just: charge texl, as we will see
with our second example, A task which could take as lorg a 4 -
ten minutes to create ts a panel thar contains a heading that h
while texl on a black background.
by using the commands that ProPage has for genie v it is
possible to write a scrip! that creates the Ikjx, li hks you for the
text to lie placed in there and then goL^ off and does all the fid-
dly bits like adding margins and setting the text colour
At the end of it you have genie that converts a ten-minute
job into one that takes $0 seconds, ami all at the stroke of a
key.
PageSrream dtie* not support AKexx, although this is likely to
lx 4 added lor v.J, What PageStream does tune are mucros ilu:
can l>e run by pressing a function key, These can be pro-
grammed manualh by typing in the commands, or you can use
Page stream's a mo-record function.
To create a macro to change a piece of text on a key press,
you would first create a tag for that text and then sun
PageStreu ms auto- record process. I se the keyboard ro select
die necessary lag and, onee finLshed, stop the record process.
Pri?Pijge F s geuies can be assigned 0 hotkey, enabling
you to change a piece of text with one Keystroke
PUBLISHING
The macro is now ready to be used on
even piece of text that requires thar tag to
be applied to It
Macro* can do more than change text
and, unlike ProFages geuies, complicated
procedures can be auto-recorded,
Dropped capitals that can lake many min-
ute-* t; 1 design can be Created by a macro
in second 1 *.
Firmly you need to create a tag for the
dropped capital to limit rhe number of
keypresses needed to apply the text attrib-
utes fat the capital. It is abg advisable to
us«. a large amount of baseline shift io
move the capital to the bottom of its box.
This enables the baseline of the capital
E" I ale U]i with a baseline of Lite main text
wishnUT pushing the next line of text out
oi pb.ee js wdl
Once thy tag is in place, set auto-record
in action Stamp the text tool on the page
One touch
DTP
and lype the diameter for the dropped capital, using the key •
txxtfd iu select it. Apply die tag to it, select the object tool and
then text runaround.
Select a horizontal offsci to push tile text away from the
opiul and then ibe type of runa round to be used. Again, all
■hi stL’ps should lie done using the keyboard.
bod the auto-record process and the macro is complete.
\ow w ften you want a dropped capital you stamp the text tool
on the page, type the character and then hit the function key
for the macro.
in j lew seconds Lite dropped capital will hr in the correct
typeface and size with text runaround on, All that is needed i^
to place ii on top of your text The rime that can fse saved
when, hiving to create many dropped capitals is enormous
s . whether you use Professional 3 -age or FageStreani you
don't hive an excuse for having to put up with those repetitive
tasks, as the power of the program is on the end of your
fingertip*
Why waste time
creating documents
when you can have
your publishing
program do the
work for you?
