Hint about the cheat mode (hiya hackers!)…. Sing along if you know the words.. “You’d better make your face up with your favourite disguise, with your button-down lips and your roller-blind eyes, with your empty smile and your hungry heart, feel the bile rising from your guilty past, with your nerves in tatters as the cockle-shell shatters, and the hammers batter down your door!”…. any ideas yet? Second verse: “You’d better run all day and run all night, and keep your dirty feelings deep inside, and if you’re taking your girlfriend out tonight, you’d better park the car well out of sight, ’cause if they catch you in the back seat tryin’ to pick her locks, they’re gonna send you back to mother in a cardboard box!” ..the chorus might give the game away a bit, so just you go through your record collection and if it contains a certain favourite album of mine you may well suss the cheat mode! Have fun… Richard Aplin |

Yaki Da! Once more you are listening to top music by Rob Hubbard. Taken from ‘Hydrofool’. Well, that was a nice game but unfortenately it was the 300th three-dimensional arcade adventure… Other music by sound master Rob can be found in Ninja II, Thundercats, Nemesis the Warlock, Dragons Lair II, Shockway Rider, and so on. Hit the ESC key to quit sound track. Demo by Epics in April 1988, the special hello goes to APC. That was it! Now my obligatory ‘See you later alligator!’ |

Sorry that this is such a long letter! I have decided on a name, I isn’t being used by anyone. How ? What do you think of this name? I have put some stuff on the discs I have sent you, so remember to look on the disc before copying want. The music and graphics could do with some more music (I the same musics over and over again in many demos), so I mentioned it to you. There are about 3 or 4 types of have had problems with some of a bit wierd. My friend has many musics, and even if I can’t work the odd music program out, still have a large number of musics. Other musics have to be (Looking for the tone table!!) guys responsible for the programming. This some musics which cannot be ripped Back to the music playing still in ST music format and plays almost correctly. I hope to rewrite quicker, so it doesn’t use valuable CPU time. The second is in semi-ST As you realise, I have not have been very busy doing various things and up to now, have not been able to get round to sending some stuff to you. I have also had to buy a new box of discs as I have run out of them. fonts, and a couple of pictures, in the same format as before, so This time, I have included my rasters. I have two problems. At the moment, as soon as the frame flyback occurs, I change mode and this always starts on the left hand side. Is there any other way? disk full from your list in exchange for free? (The games and stuff I say) Also if I send you other games which you do not have, I can have a disk full for free? (Only ones you want). (list of stuff on one side of one of the discs sent). I will still send postage. To demos. When will the Cuddly demo be ready? I have worked out a way to click the tape motor and music. The ‘disc light bopper’ as it going accross the whole monitor. At moment I have to fiddle with other numbers until I can get it right. This takes a long time. the raster changes position slightly, how can I fix this. Back to flick screens again. wasn’t sure whether you understood correctly. There are 2 screens in memory. A visible screen (being seen), and the drive and doesn’t need the disc drive motor on, It looks cool! On to click in time to the music and this is cool too! The idea came from the ST and I knew the Amstrad naff flickery raster which I haven’t been able to fix. Can you help? work out the data needed to be sent the chip when the size of the displayed, sprites, scrollers, wobbling on the backup screen. When the frame flyback occurs, the backup screen becomes the visible screen and visible screen becomes the backup screen, and sprites are replotted This effect is used by games, and from what me and my friend have equations? Also how can I calculate the next position for the graphics I can’t get all parts of the Megademo to work. The parts that Have you got the GCS music tracker? If so put it on any spare space. without this system would give flicker, in the same time. The flicking between the two screens occurs every frame flyback (50ths of a second) giving smooth animation etc. Games run and this makes them less smooth. I also know that the scrolling shoot ’em up selector in ‘THE DEMO’ uses this also. Why don’t you try this? Don’t put it down before you have tried it demos, smoother thanrmat, but is more haven’t included any of the other type as I have put 3 musics on for you have a listen to. Look at the basic loader ‘MUSIC.BAS’ and lines 140,150 through better speakers than the Amstrads built in crappy one!) I have also incl any game. I will try this technique with some of AMSDOS and CPM) which can be put in the library. Ask your contacts to the discs with other stuff . Or get it from them and send it to me. On to the money. I would like strike a bargain with you. If I send you a disk full of musics ;; DE = screen address to put ball I had to send some coins as I don’t have any more notes at O “Read the TO-WAR.TXT document using any text reader. All info in there!” “REMEMBER: Any extra money as credit. Sorry I had to send some coins as I don’t have any more notes at the moment.” ff last time. Now to the stuff I want. space.
