-- WHAT'S IN THE ZIP ARCHIVE? -----------------------------------
GFA A folder containing all the source file bits that
go with this issue's instalment of Han van
Kempen's "Your Second GfA Basic Manual".
SVGA A neat little program that is of use only when you
have a Falcon with SVGA monitor. It cranks up your
resolution to 864 x 512 when using 16 colours. The
hertz rate is a bit lower than usual, but
otherwise it's really rather spiffing. Dox
included.
MONOPOLY Does not contain the game "Monopoly", of course,
because that would be serious infringements of
trade marks and that kind of thing. It *does*,
however, contain a program called "Geneticopoly",
which is a genetic version of it, sortof anyway. I
am sure you'll have fun playing it...I have! Full
dox included. Works on the Falcon, though you'd
better try ST compatibility screen modes.
Q2MONO20.Q2 A rather compact program that allows you to write
monochrome emulators into a disk's bootsector.
What's the use? Well, you could install it on your
bootdisk if you only have a colour monitor and
then run some software written for monochrome
only. You can write two possible emulator
bootsectors: One if you have a blitter and one if
you haven't. Doesn't work on a Falcon. No dox
included.
RAZREZ A folder containing an accessory that can play a
variety of chip music file formats and play them.
Doesn't work on the Falcon. Full dox included.
DCMOMETR A folder containing a silly CPX module that keeps
track of the amount of miles your mouse has
travelled from the last reset. Works on the
Falcon. Dox included.
TOSX A folder containing "TOS Exit". This program makes
sure TOS programs wait for a key after exiting,
and that all your colours are reset. Didn't test
it on the Falcon, but it ought to work there, too.
Dox included.
PLUTOS.PRG An ex-commercial game by Micro Value, now found in
several PD libraries so I thought "what the heck".
It's a really neat one/two-player (two
recommended) shoot-'em-up game, one of the finest
of its kind. Very playable, very addictive, and
works on the Falcon, too, when started from ST low
resolution compatibility mode. No dox included.
Two joysticks needed for two-player mode. I think
you can even use [Esc] to get back to the desktop.
-- WHAT IF YOU DON'T HAVE "ST ZIP"? -----------------------------
To extract the stuff mentioned above from the archive present on
this disk, you need a program called "ST Zip". It is available
from a variety of sources, but can also be found on the disk of
"ST NEWS" Volume 9 Issue 1. Please get that issue, or try to get
"ST Zip" through your local Public Domain library, BBS, friends
or network.
If there is no other way to get it, send me a disk with 3 IRCs
(one extra if you live outside Europe) requesting "ST NEWS"
Volume 9 Issue 1 (which has "ST Zip" on it).
