Hello 060-guys :)

I've found some while to bugfix duke, so here you are. The most important change is you don't have to rewrite cfg file anymore (for correct sound mixing rate), just choose the one in configuration program. Another thing is ikbd handler, mouse is now working for about 90% and it's more stable.

Enjoy the xmas with duke :)

p.s. i'd like to ask you ppl, do you find another ports reallych _such_ important for ct60? there's a possibility (except SDL things) to port let's say Hexen II or Descent (I, maybe II) but it takes a lot of time... i'd be happy to read your opinion on this topic in bbs board here at dhs... i'd like to code another (less boring :) stuff but in case 90% of ct60 users want new ports, i can change my mind :)

To bring to an end "The 7 days of D-Bug" where we fixed up a few more games for your HD/Falcon/MSTe enjoyment in the run up to Christmas, we released a pure Falcon crack. However, not to disappoint all the ST folks out there we also bring you one last gift - D-Bug Menu 196 (a/b).

This conculudes our planned 2006 releases...However, we might drop the odd falcon fix out there for you soon.

Here's an early Xmas present, or possibly a very late release from the Outline '06 Party?

It's my camera movie footage, stitched together in a comedic muso-documentary format, with random moments taken from Outline, to give a five-minute 'taster' of the whole experience, or a nice reminder of those early summer days to the actual partygoers.

Anyway, go ahead and grab it (Quicktime format.)

Oh, by the way, Merry Xmas Atariscene!

We in Paradize wishes you all an Merry XMAS!

With this little thing!

Dedicated to new advances with old machines, 8BITPEOPLES celebrates its 50th release with 8BP050, a special 50-artist compilation capturing the current exciting moment of radical and explosive evolution in the chiptune scene. This document is assisted by The Tank, a non-profit art space and the definitive chiptune epicenter of both New York City and North America. It is released to coincide with the Blip Festival 2006, an international convergence of over 30 chiptune performers, organized by both parties. 8BP050 intends to document a groundbreaking scene, a continuing partnership, and the largest-scale chiptune event to date.

With tracks from : 4mat,gwEm and Counter Reset, Bodenständig 2000,Paza,Jeroen Tel,Crazy Q and many more.

New Atari Machine in development. Developer boards arriving within a month. Based on a Coldfire processor from motorola.

Daily leader, RuggedStyle.

Inspired by the latest games of Paradize and Reservoir Gods, I've created a new version of STj which is also able to use Jaguar controllers. It looks cool live, and the JagPad is totally ergonomic for music control.

By the way, don't forget the maxYMiser compo - 1 month to go!

Hey.. it's Halloween... Well, we had the final 5 menus all tapped out ready to roll us up to 200. Then something special happened. Encounter! A VERY rare game so good we changed our menu plans to bring it to you. As you've come to expect, its 16mhz accelerated as well as fixed for hard disk installs making it resemble the Atari 8-bit version even more! So hop on over to the download page, and grab possibly the best ST release in over 15 years. We even took the opportunity to boost it for Falcons and MSTEs

We interrupt this transmission to deliver a very important message:

Manou and her microdisco crew has released a new compilation for you!

Check it out, play it loud at work, but most importantly: play it in your car!

Phew - finally it is out.

Today we release the game Nuclear Waste Dump which has been delayed for over a year. But it was worth the effort and we are proud to show you the nice artwork by Minz and the cool soundtrack by Marcer.
Code by Simon Sunnyboy!

As all games by Paradize this game is powered by GFABASIC. Go to our Games page to download!

An emulator friendly diskimage will be provided soon!

To celebrate the latest version of maxYMiser, and to answer the requests of maxYMiser users, I announce a competition for maxYMiser music!

Any style or effects are allowed, as long as the music is playable on a standard Atari ST or STe.

Entries from emulator users and non-sceners are strongly encouraged!

The deadline is on the 4th December 2006, and there will be a decent prize for the winner. The winner will be decided by a public voting relating to a demo and MP3 release of the music in mid-December.

There are hardly any rules, but for more information visit the compo website or send an email.

Thanks, and good luck to all entering!

* More graceful handling of disabled timers
* Much improved support for Atari TT (thanks to SH3 for the loan of his TT)
* Memory saving minimum DMA volume control
* Updated SNDH_CPU.TTP
* Other small bug fixes

Paradize presents a little diskfiller game called Znax.

GFA code, GFX : Cooper

After slight delay, v0.8890 of Graoumf Tracker is out. Main feature is CT60/63 compatibility and Backdoor to GEM. There are some problems still with BtG in MiNT, but in TOS it works perfectly. It allows user to jump out of tracker to OS, and do some things there... Also small control interface exist in GEM and it also support AVSERVER. Will try to fix MiNT issues ASAP.

Folowing the fixes to GT2 replayer, our puzzler Capy and Gem GT2 player are also updated and should be now 060 happy...

Take care, Janez

Update (two hours later):

OK, after a looong night i finnaly discover a bug, preventing to play GT2 modules in GemPLAY, while they play perfectly in GemGT2, using same routines.

Anyway, v1.00 of GemPLAY is here now. GemPLAY can play ACE Tracker modules (*.am), NoiseTracker modules (*.mod), Graoumf Tracker modules (*.gt2), Art Of Noise modules (*.aon), SNDH songs (*.snd, limited to TimerC songs) and XLR8 Tracker songs (*.xms, a tad unstable). Enjoy.

Even the well known Amiga & C64 chiptunes composers prefer YM2149 !

Not convinced ? Check the two last chiptracks composed by Cerror with Music Mon 2.5:

- Taoism (First atariST tune since ages)
- Very bland


SNDH and mp3 versions available.

D-Bug 189....

Orbiter by Spectrum Holobyte, quite a rare game cracked by our occasional collaborator GGN/KÜA (yeah.. he coded the fab menu on 178!).

Other goodies include a nice Horizontal arcade game - "Well 'ard" (now fully unlocked thanks to the author),

"The Adventures of Alice who went through the Looking Glass and came back, though not much changed",

keen fans would have seen that on 188 v1 ;)

Here it is! The version 3.0 of Atari Sap Music Archive brings you 2006 tunes for the New Year 2006. There are 128 new tunes, many fixes, better rips and so on. Enjoy!

As sort of a new year's gift i'm presenting you the TT conversion of our EIL III entry, the beams demo. i basically ported the demo to prove the TT's strength as compared to the standard falcon - despite requiring an additional c2p pass and lacking the fast blitter gouraud the demo still runs remarkably faster, especially the lipsync part. It seems the 32Mhz and the full 32bit bus do the job here - and of course to release something for an underrated and underfed platform ;).

Extra special thanks to DMA SC for doing an excellent job on the MP2->MOD conversion of the soundtrack and Lance for coding his fast and HiFi mod replayer (which is, however, not yet free of bugs so don't wonder about notes

I'm happy to announce well known replay routine DSPMOD for Falcon goes GPL! Bitmaster was so kind he released full source code.

What does it mean? You can use / sell / change / improve / bugfix this routine if you accept these conditions:

- you always release complete source code with all changes you did make to this routine to the public
- you always release the source code under GPL (or similar license) of the software that use this routine (i.e. you provide the source code)

For the full explanation see attached gpl.txt (in the archive).

Hello scene friends,
