|  New Cover Scans | | Posted by Csabo on 2007-04-30 |
  Rüdiger sent in new covers: the cassette release of BASIC-Kurs, and an alternative scan for Mercenary Kompendium-Ausgabe. Lacus - our frequent supplier of Hungarian stuff - sent in a few program files (see New Uploads for the list). He also got his hands on a true treasure: feast your eyes on the cover artwork of Botticelli! The back cover has some nice info: the list of authors (György Szöllösi may be a familiar name), and it also displays the official description of the program - some might say it's a little boastful perhaps, others might think it's well deserved. Thanks for these guys! |

The goal is to break into the mansion, steal the treasure and escape with your life. The game is programmed using the Adventure Building System by Rachy, which is very flexible adventure programming language. The source code would also be released soonish.

I have just noticed that Csabo's excellent Plus4IDE has received an update, so if you're into cross-platform development (which you should), head on over to the dedicated page and download it immediately. I have no idea yet what's been updated but we can nag him on the forum for that.

| | Lots of Missing Mags Added! | | Posted by Csabo on 2007-04-10 |
 Moldi dug up a whole bunch of missing magazines for us. We now have the complete set for Infó (7 issues added), Lamer News (2 issues added) and Scanners (8 issues added). We also received several missing SCN News issues, leaving only 17 and 26 missing. Issue 4 was sent in by several scene members, but it's the same file we already had on rulez.org, which is unfortunately broken. Perhaps a working version of this issue never existed?
Info perhaps deserves a special mention: this mag was relatively unknown in the scene, and it's not the usual scene format, but true to its title it does have lots of useful and interesting information. Should provide a good read to anyone wanting to reminisce about old times. It's in Hungarian though.
Big thanks for Moldi and Chronos, who also sent in some of these mags at the same time. |

 TPSH and Moldi both sent us the last missing issue of Terror News: Terror News 17! Fire it up if you're so inclined (and speak Hungarian) to read some old news. Big thanks to both guys, a remember to check your disks for more missing programs. (Most notable in the mags category are SCN News, Scanners and Infó.) |

| | Club Info 98 and Other Mags | | Posted by Csabo on 2007-04-03 |
| Erich/Ultd just sent us the new issue of Club Info: Club Info 98 is here! Check it out for 2 disk sides packed full of German articles, plus recent and new releases. Our frequent calls for missing software also got answered. It's a coincidence, but we also received a few more programs, all of them happen to be mags. Ati got us a good, working copy of Lunacy 6, and Unreal found two more missing issues of Terror News: 10 and 18. (This almost completes the series: now only 17 is missing.) Thanks for the stuff guys, enjoy! |
