Introducing the "NEW" Amiga 4000 and other new products at THE WORLD OF COMMODORE SHOW at the PASADENA CENTER, Pasadena, CA, from Friday, September 11, 1992 through Sunday, September 13, 1992. SEE IT! HEAR IT! INTERACT AND CREATE WITH IT! ATTEND OUR EXCLUSIVE PRESS CONFERENCE The Amiga 4000 is a revolutionary breakthrough in multimedia computers with: MORE COLORS (16 million) HIGHER RESOLUTIONS FASTER ANIMATION MODULAR PROCESSORS East Coast press conferences will take place on Sept 16, 1992 in Boston, MA, and on Sept 17th in New York City. -*- *StarShip* NEWS *Flash* 2nd of 9 Stories ASDG Sets Ship Date for State-of-the-Art Amiga Visual Effects Package ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ASDG has set an October 1st ship date for MorphPlus(tm), a state-of-the-art visual effects package for the Commodore Amiga. MorphPlus, already in use in Hollywood for such features as Babylon 5, provides cinematic quality full motion morphing and other visual effects. ASDG also announced a forthcoming _ Microsoft Windows version, called CineMorph(tm). / \ / - \ Madison, WI, August 26, 1992 / ___ \ (_/ \_)SDG Incorporated, the leading supplier of innovative color imaging solutions for cinema and video, announce an October 1st ship date for its state-of-the-art visual effects package, MorphPlus and has announced plans for CineMorph, a morphing-only system for Microsoft Windows. MorphPlus produces cinematic and broadcast quality full motion morphs in record time using a proprietary image warping technology and a user interface which has been called "strikingly different" and "unique and very impressive." MorphPlus has already earned a place in major Hollywood productions. Mark Swain, animator for Foundation Imaging, the creators of the special effects for Babylon 5 said, "It's scarily realistic. MorphPlus produces the most realistic shapeshifting special effects I have ever seen on a desktop." MorphPlus allows for establishing relationships between source and destination images with unheard-of precision. Animators are free to add as many relationships as they wish without incurring a significant performance penalty as the number of relationships grows large (something common to all other morphing systems). Other state-of-the-art features abound in MorphPlus, such as the ability to subdivide an image into logical parts (called groups), assign separate acceleration and deceleration curves per group, depth arrange groups, and even the ability to set a transparency curve on a group by group basis. MorphPlus's morphing system is so precise and flexible, that it can be used to edit fine details of an image, or to create mattes and cut-outs. As for performance, on a non-accelerated A3000, MorphPlus can produce a complex full broadcast sized morph in the same time as Pacific Data Images's morphing system (the one used for the Michael Jackson "Black or White" video) running on an ultra-high performance Silicon Graphics workstation*. Incredibly, morphing is but one of the special effects provided by MorphPlus. Other capabilities allow high quality DVE tumbles and fly-bys, mapping images onto rotating spheres, mapping an image onto the surface of a pond into which any number of pebbles can be thrown, and others All of these operations are presented in easy-to-use WYSIWYG user interfaces. MorphPlus is compatible with ASDG's award winning image processing program, Art Department Professional, although ADPro is not required. MorphPlus can also be used with ASDG's recently announced support for the Abekas A60, A65, and A66 Digital Disk Recorders to move broadcast quality video between platforms. MorphPlus carries a list price of $295 and requires Kickstart 2.0 or later. On a related note, ASDG has announced the development of a morphing-only version of MorphPlus, called CineMorph, for the Microsoft Windows environment. CineMorph requires Windows 3.1 or later and an Intel 386 processor or better. For information about MorphPlus, CineMorph, or ASDG'S other color imaging solutions, contact Gina Cerniglia at ASDG Incorporated, 925 Stewart Street, Madison, WI 53713 or call (608) 273-6585.

All it could do was play a mean game of NIM. Computers have come a long way since then but Crickets hasn't. She still likes to play. After having been involved with the Commodore 64 for many years doing stereo SID music, Crickets got her first Amiga three years ago. She enjoys coming home to her 3000 after a long day of programming the AS400 (in RPG which, according to JSP, has totally fried her brain). Each night there's a decision to be made: Should she pull out Deluxe Paint, Imagine, VistaPro, or the Med Editor? Should she take a trip to GEnie? Play a game? Fire up AMAX? Should she work on that AREXX script or dust off that C program she's been putting off? "It's not just the variety of programs available," she says. "It's the way the Amiga lets you hang it all together. You can actually get work done and not realize you've been working. Unless, of course, you're playing Pinball Dreams. Then you KNOW you haven't been working." Crickets also likes the feeling of community that comes with being an Amiga owner which is one of the reasons she enjoys GEnie and the people online who share the joy of computing with their favorite machine. She's employed as a consultant programmer/analyst at the headquarters of a large company in Richmond, Virginia, although her dream is to somehow be totally involved with the Amiga 24 hours a day. Crickets was born in Minnesota, but grew up on the West Coast. Her adult life has been spent in Connecticut, New York City, New Jersey, and Virginia, and she's hoping to move to Arizona or New Mexico sometime in the future. "I like going places, but don't like coming back, so I find it easier to move. Right now I'm happy in Virginia with Jabba and a cat named Cat(nip)." Crickets replaces Chris.P as *StarShip* Graphics Topic Leader, although Chris will continue to be an active participant during these busy days of his Freshman year in college. Please welcome Crickets to the *StarShip* Crew by stopping by her Graphics Conference any Sunday evening starting at 10PM Eastern time. You'll be glad you did. :) -*- *StarShip* NEWS *Flash* 4th of 9 Stories _________________________________________________________________________ | | | *StarShip* Amiga Conferences | | ____ _ _ | | / ___) __/ ) / ) | | ( (__ ____ ____(_ __)___ __ __ / /_ ____ ___ | | \__ \ / __ )/ )/ / / __ )/ \/ \ / )/ __ )/ __) | | ___) )/ ___// /) // / / ___// /\ /\ \ / /) // ___// / | | (____/(____)/ ___/(_/ (____)(_/ \/ \_)(____/(____)(_/ | | (_/ | | | | IMPORTANT CHANGE: Hardware Clinic now at 9PM Eastern on SATURDAY! | | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | | Except where noted, Conferences begin at 10PM Eastern Time in the Amiga | | Conference Rooms at Page 555.

ProWrite version 3.3 adds a number of enhancements over version 3.2; these enhancements include: - HotLinks ProWrite 3.3 supports the HotLinks dynamic data exchange system developed by Soft-Logik Publishing. This gives you a very close integration between ProWrite and other HotLinks-capable programs; you can edit text in ProWrite and have it automatically incorporated into your desktop publishing system, or change graphics in a drawing or painting program and have the changes automatically brought into ProWrite! - Automatic Text Wrap Around Pictures You can now have text automatically wrap around pictures, either block-style or following the picture's curves, and with an adjustable offset. - Picture Enhancements There are a great many enhancements to picture handling in ProWrite 3.3, including the ability to name pictures and search for them in your documents, and precise control over a picture's location and size. - Print Preview Now you can get a reduced view of the each page of your document, to see on the screen how your final layout looks. - Improved Font Handling You can specify any font size for your text, not just those that are installed on your system. This gives you complete creative control over your text's appearance, and is especially useful if you are using outline fonts or printing on PostScript printers. - System Clipboard Support ProWrite 3.3 can exchange text and pictures with other Amiga programs through the Amiga's system clipboard. - Macro and AREXX Enhancements ProWrite 3.3 adds a very large number of new macro commands, giving you virtually complete control over ProWrite's operation through AREXX. - Kickstart 3.0 and New Amiga Graphics Chips Support ProWrite 3.3 includes support for new features in Kickstart 3.0, as well as allowing you to open up to 256 color screens on machines with the new Amiga graphics chips. - And Much More! There are many more improvements throughout the program; things like document password protection, an optional vertical ruler, and much faster PostScript picture printing. ProWrite 3.3 will be shipping in September 1992, with a new suggested retail price of $99.95 US. Registered owners will be sent upgrade information in the mail. Upgrade information is as follows: Upgrading from version 3.0 or later: $20.00 from version 2.5 or earlier: $60.00 Shipping and handling in US: $5.00 other countries: $10.00 (Texas residents must add 8% sales tax.) For details contact your local Amiga dealer or New Horizons Software, Inc. -*- *StarShip* NEWS *Flash* 6th of 9 Stories ____ Black Belt Announces HotLinks Support / _ ) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ / __ / / _ ) (____/lack Belt Systems is pleased to announce support for Soft-Logik's "HotLinks" file publish/subscribe system, as part of the standard Imagemaster release. This is another first for Black Belt; we are the first developer to provide comprehensive HotLinks support, though in this case, we'll all benefit as the other developers catch up to us. Again. :^) Hotlinks allows you to share items (images in this case) between programs via intermediate files which are handled by the HotLinks system. Benefits include not having to exit applications, or manually import or export data - Hotlinks "knows" when an item (like an image) in a document has changed, and will correctly deliver the goods when the output is generated. Hotlinks keeps track of the latest version of your files and maintains them as up-to-date. Hotlinks is a very exciting capability newly added to the Amiga by Soft-Logik. This is not vaporware; Imagemaster's HotLinks capability will be generally available beginning this coming week (the week of August 31st). Black Belt Systems would like to express our thanks to Soft-Logik, who has co-operated in the spirit of the finest Amiga developers. Note that when other developers release HotLinks capabilties, Imagemasters HotLinks tools will link our image files to their applications as well; as other software matures in this way, a great deal more power will be afforded the user. -*- *StarShip* Amiga *Flash* 7th of 9 Stories _ News From Supra Corporation's BBS / \ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ / - \ / ___ \ (_/ \_)ccording to Supra, everyone whose been selling V.32bis modems in the same price range as theirs has been having some problems with bugs, even Practical Peripherals, which is using an AT&T chipset (Supra and most of the others use a Rockwell chipset).

The AD516, bundled with Studio 16 editing software, is the first 8 track audio card available on any platform. The AD516 supports stereo with 16 bits of resolution, and a built-in SMPTE time code reader for easy synchronization of digital audio to video tape. The AD516 records, edits, and plays back direct to hard disk allowing almost unlimited sample length. The supplied Studio 16 editing software supports cut, copy, and paste as well as more advanced functions like a SMPTE cue list. The AD516 and Studio 16 bundle provide a perfect low cost audio for video post production system. The AD516 digital audio card plugs into an Amiga 2000 or 3000. The card processes 16 bit samples at up to 48K samples per second. Sigma-Delta converters are used with 64 times over sampling to provide an SNR > 85dB. Jacks include stereo audio in, stereo audio out, and LTC SMPTE in. All connections are RCA line level. Also included on the AD516 is an Analog Devices 2105 digital signal processor. This "sound accelerator" chip is rated at 10 MIPS, and allows the AD516 to perform digital effects in real time. This includes mixing, flanging, chorusing, and echoes to name but a few. Finally, the AD516 includes a SMPTE time code reader capable of reading standard SMPTE longitudinal time code at 24, 25 and 30 frames per second. The AD516 is bundled with the new release 2.0 of Studio 16, a modular software system. Release 2.0 includes many new features, such as "drag & drop" technology for entering sounds into the cue list or transport. Studio 16 synchronizes audio frame accurately with video, and allows editing and mixing of digital sounds. Studio 16 includes: o Non-destructive editor with cut, copy, past o Fade in, fade out, scale, FFT, normalize, and more o The ability to define named "regions" in a sample o The ability to play from multiple hard disks simultaneously o SMPTE cue list with SMPTE chase o Internal SMPTE preview generator o External SMPTE reader o Eight track playback with simultaneous 2 track record o Multi track mixer o VU, LED, and graphic meters o Realtime echo, delay, chorus and flange o ARexx Port The Studio 16 cue list triggers sounds on any video frame. The audio tracks the tape, jumping to new positions as the tape is fast forwarded or rewound. SunRize is working with other developers, such as Blue Ribbon Sound Works, to provide direct support for the AD516 in their software. For example, Bars & Pipes users are able to trigger the AD516 as a MIDI channel. This allows vocals or guitar to be sequenced along with normal MIDI instruments. AD1012 owners can upgrade to the AD516 with a full credit discount towards the AD516's list price. The AD516 has a list price of $1495 and is available now direct from SunRize or from an Amiga dealer. For more information, contact Anthony Wood, SunRize Industries 2959 S.

Monday announced that the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has dissolved the injunction which prevented it from developing, manufacturing or selling video games that are compatible with Sega's Genesis system. On Friday, Aug. 28, the Ninth Circuit issued a brief, unanimous order, in the landmark Sega vs. Accolade case, throwing out the District Court's injunction, which was issued in April of this year. The order also noted that an opinion specifying the reasons for the court's decision would be issued in the future. Accolade Chairman Alan R. Miller, applauding the Ninth Circuit's decision, stated: "I'm tremendously pleased by the Court's confirmation of Accolade's position in our dispute with Sega. We were convinced that the actions Accolade took to study the interface requirements of Sega's Genesis game system were perfectly proper and thoroughly in accord with standard industry practice. "Although the Ninth Circuit's final opinion has not yet been issued, we have every reason to believe that the opinion will support our position on both the copyright and trademark issues and vindicate our reverse engineering activities." In its lawsuit, Sega alleged that its copyright and trademarks were infringed when Accolade studied a Sega Genesis game system and several game cartridges to learn how to make Accolade games compatible with the system. Specifically, Sega claimed that Accolade illegally copied its software during its reverse engineering. Reverse engineering is a widely used method of studying how a product operates in order to develop products that are interoperable with it. Accolade, with headquarters in San Jose, is a leading developer and marketer of entertainment software for IBM-compatible, Macintosh and Amiga personal computers and is a licensed developer and marketer of video game software for Nintendo and NEC video game systems. -*- Over a GIGABYTE of Amiga files in our Library!
