- Improvements Since Volume One
- -----------------------------
-
- Yes, we have been all through our registration returns and taken into
- consideration your thoughts on our CD.
-
- Ok, to start with, most of you asked for Volume Two, so here it is! That
- request is obvious cos you've bought the CD already.
-
- James Watson asked us if we could support new icons, this isn't an easy
- task, because the majority of Amiga users haven't even heard of New Icons,
- yet alone being able to run them. This is something we were unable to do,
- we do have a few New Icons in the 'Icons+' drawer, but it is very
- difficult to get hold of large amounts of them.
-
- We have taken great consideration over a top suggestion by Mr P Bryan,
- he suggested we should take more concideration over CD32 owners as well as
- those that use CDTV/CD32 link up with an A1200/4000. If you look in the
- 'Useful' drawer, you will find Sernet and Parnet programs, and you will find
- our CD will now autoboot on a CD32.
-
- We also had a complaint from Joseph Cox who pointed out problems with
- some of the icons Default Tools, these are sorted and thoroughly checked.
- Also people who owned a Squirrel interface had problems with the 'iconx'
- tool, basically they didn't own one, so we have completed the default
- tools paths to find iconx on the CD and not their boot disk or hard drive.
-
- Also those who own a Squirrel interface and NO hard drive, we have created
- boot disks for you, these are found in the 'Useful' drawer. All you have
- to do is unpack the correct boot disk to floppy and boot with that instead
- of your usual Squirrel boot disk.
-
- Steven McLean asked for more programs running straight from the CD,
- you got it, we have cut down on DMS files to the very limit!
-
- One of the main requests was more control over DMS unpacking, a lot of you
- asked for the option to unpack to harddrive or Ram, well it's actually
- impossible to unpack to hard drive, but we have created an icon in the
- 'Useful' drawer called 'RAD-DMS', this create a RAD drawer in which will
- automatically act as DF0: so you can unpack to RAM/RAD.
-
- Oliver Bohan asked for faster dms unpacking, so we have taken out the
- Verify command.
-
- We have decreased the amount of Sub-Directories due to Chris Horne
- (Hornesoft PD) complaint, so, there you go Chris. Although we did agree
- with him, because it slowed down multi-tasking when loads of windows are
- open.
-
- Refering back to Steven McLean request for more software ready to run,
- R Sibley asked for less DMS files which basically is the same thing
- but I thought we would stress the point a bit more.
-
- Andrew Douthwaite asked for more games, sorted. We have also installed
- a working version of Klondike with 10 new cardsets ready to use. We
- apologise for the problems with Klondike and Vol One.
-
- Also people did complain about some demos not working with there machine,
- this is not our fault, it is incompatible programming, but we have included
- a degrader called 'TUDE, which again can be found in the 'Useful' drawer.
-
- ...And we did notice the spelling mistake for SAdENESS on the side and
- back of the CD pointed out to us by Erik Rudling
-
- If anyone has anymore complaints, suggestions or improvements we can
- consider, just return your regestration slips with some top suggestions.
-
-
- We now have loads of Exclusive software, such as a 5 level demo of
- GloomDeluxe, The Killing Grounds, Nemac 4, Diamond caves and loads more!
-
- Volume 2 also contains all the latest AGA demos from the partys 95 and
- 96. More upto date than the coming Scene Storm CD from Spaceballs!!!
