What's coming from the lads down at the sausage factory... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- "Elf" -=*=- I will soon be releasing "Elfs Tools 16" because (at last) I have some new utilities, Deck and Freak will be the first people to receive this. How about releasing a collection of LHA`d LHA`s, you could get so many utilities to a disk, I may do this, teel my what you think. Julian Cope is the master so I will release a Julian Cope module with some sort of front to it. There will be 256k, 512k and maybe a 1024k version of a song, the song probably being "Poet is Priest.." from his album "Johovakill". I have had a few ideas for my future products but as I am no wizzo programmer I will probably be asking Freak (SORRY!) to do a joint production. I won`t say anything now because Freak may not agree with some of my ideas. Of course I`ll still continue doing the odd utility compact (one coming out very soon!) in the style of LSD legal tools as with all my new compacts (see Diske tools). More and more Modules are being done by me each week, so if you want any contact Freak or Deck as they recieve them first. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- "Df0:" --<>-- Mark has taken over the "More Miggy Music" Modules series from Freak and had re-christened it "Noise Pollution". The menu will ungergo a mainly cosmetic change to take the new name into account, it'll much the same program underneath unless Freak can be persuaded to add a few more bells and whistles... Er... that's it I think! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- "Freak" -=»*«=- I am currently slaving away on "The Word #3", it's the 25th now and it has to be ready by the 30th (gumph!), looks like I'm not going to get Phil!'s articles into THIS issue barring some minor miracle! I'm stuck for progs to include on the PD-Pak series though, there don't seem to have been enough interesting bits out for quite some time and the series has shuddered to what I hope is just a temporary halt at number 4. Also I have devised a new joystick for the CD³²/Amiga/MegaDrive and will be working on that - yes a Hardware project - until I get it to a point where I may be tempted to contact a joystick manufacturer. Yes it IS a very good design, watch this space for further news... Next up, the "Claudia Schiffer 94 AGA Slideshow" is finished, it's on 3 disks and is available from NFA-PD Grimsby for £2.80 inc. p&p. It also works on an ECS Machine with sufficient RAM, the pics are shown in black and white on ECS setups. Finally a rumour confirmed! "BoDYSHoP VIII" WILL appear sometime before Christmas. A new label - Anne Airhead Productions (See various bits in this issue) - has been formed for babe-filled slideshows, Claudia 94 being the first to appear on there. BoDYSHoP VIII will come on either two or three disks and cost either £2.00 or £2.80 accordingly. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- "Deck the Ripper" -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- After a long absence from the scene as we know it (bar a few articles for The Word #3) Deck has mentioned a disk-full of HD utilities, but that's all we have to go on right now. I THINK it's for beginners but I could be very wrong... Also scheduled for Christmas is the NFA-WHQ board, it will be totally legal and the working name is "The Big Hard One". Specs will include a 1/2Gb HD (rising to 4Gb) and at least 2 CDs on line, but we're unsure of the other gubbins about the host machine, we're hoping for a 68030 with several megs, depends how things go I guess. Imagine! A SYSOP that answers when you page him! (Maybe...) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Elvira/NFA wants Freak to do a Chris Eubank slideshow... (Sad!) ~~~~~~ -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- The other members didn't send in their work plans for this issue so we'll beat them up and get some info for next time... Freak/NFA -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
