THANKYOU FOR PURCHASING THE AMOSZINE SUPPLEMENT DISK #2
=======================================================
COMPILER STEVE BYE
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The idea behind these supplement disks is to allow us enough room to give you
the programs we talk about in the mag. A good example is the JD extension,
it is over 270k in size and that's archived. If we had put that on Amoszine
you wouldn't of got much in the way of articles and source. AZ's policy is
QUALITY AND QUANTITY
As you would expect from Amoszine, everything is crunched as much as
possible giving you good value and something to tinker with in the long
weeks between AZ issues. Another use of the Supplement disks is to allow
readers space for their product demos (or full versions) so if you want to
see your program on a future AZ Supp disk then send it to me now.
If your demo is more than 450k archived with lha then we may not be able to
use it, sorry. But I will put it in the F1 PD library for you.
On AZ Supplement disk #1 we supplied GUI-ARC and FILEMASTER these two easy
to use and friendly PD utils are all you will ever need to decompact
programs found on these supplement disks. So get AZS1 if you intend to get
more AZ supplement disks and save yourself a lot of messing around.
CONTENTS:
^^^^^^^^^
THE BIG GAME: (AZ EXCLUSIVE)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is a bit of a coup for AZ. This is the complete source to
The Assasins fruit machine game donated by Stuart to AZ readers.
This source is currently on sale for £3. Great stuff, thanks Stuart!
As promised, you always get your monies worth with AZ!
(LHA archived, De-archive with GUI-ARC)
STARS EXTENSION:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
We gave you this on AZ issue 0, which not many people have seen. I have
repeated it here partly because it's a great extension and secondly
because it's so small it filled the disk up nicely. Stars gives you
interrupt driven starfields that we think are better than the Turbo
stars routines and best of all it's VERY easy to use. For any Amos.
(Not crunched at all.)
FORTRESS 1 PREVIEW:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Surely this game needs no introduction to any AZ reader? It's a
conkingly good war strategy game written by our very own Co-Ed Lee
Bamber. It's on here in to supplement the many references made to it
in past (and future AZ's) Instructions included in game.
(LHA archived. De-archive with GUI-Arc).
HIGH OCTANE ASCII LISTING:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
There wasn't enough room on here for all the banks and maps, so here is
the total source listing in ASCII of the mega hit High Octane, it is
fairly well documented and serves as a nice example of using a few of
the turbo 1.9 extension commands (Turbo was on Supp disk #1)
(Crunched with Power Packer, depack with PP or Filemaster) If you have
the complete game you can use the banks etc from that and you will then
have the complete source to High Octane Turbo.
SUPER SOUND 3:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is an early version of the now CLR Licenceware (Spit!)
sample editor, even this version has more features than many commercial
equivelents. Put simply it's a fantastic util and it's written in good
old Amos. It has a few bugs, but they are barable when it's for free.
SuperSound was highly recommended in AZ#3 by Mike Richmond in his
article. Mike is an active member of the Med User Group and compiler of
the No sampler series of disks and is now AZ Music Editor. Doc supplied.
(Crunched with Power Packer, just double click to run)
PARTICLE MAN, ASCII LISTING (AZ EXCLUSIVE)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Donated to AZ by ace coder Paul Nordovics, this was his first game and
it's a corker. The full game appeared on Assasins disk # 105 so if
you want the whole source get the banks from there.
(Crunched with Power Packer, decrunch with PP or Filemaster)
IFF SOUND FX SAMPLES
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Instead of topping the last few K of this disk with source code I
thought a few good IFF samples, donated by Mike Richmond would be a nice
idea. Anyway you can load them into SuperSound to try it out,
fits in quiet nicely, huh!
(LHA, use GUIARC to decrunch)
--------------------------------------------------------
I hope you find this lot useful, I haven't just chucked anything on this
disk, most or all of it is relevent to Amoszine. If you de-archived all the
files on this disk would fill nearly two disks so I feel you are
getting quality and value for money. If you don't think so let me know how I
can improve these supplement disks.
I have enjoyed compiling this disk and hope to do many more, that's if you
lot want them, let me know. Now go and have some fun.
