           THE OWNER'S CORNER           
----------------------------------------
                                        
 seriously you are surprised that there 
 is one more issue of the one you liked 
  for the last two years and hopefully  
   still do in the new year of 1993!    
                                        
  most of you sure heard something of   
    the rumor that there will be no     
      emanuelle and no world news!      
                                        
  as you also know BLACK PRIEST joined  
        from cross to fairlight.        
                                        
   fact is that this will be the last   
  issue with my own coded main-menue!   
 anyway i improved and changed the code 
 again so that nobody can complain now? 
                                        
 i haven't done anything for emanuelle  
 the last 4 month and so i was not that 
much surprised as bacchus told me on the
camelot party in denmark that emanuelle 

 stopped kickin and so he wanted to put 
  black priest and me together to do a  
        new and better magazine.        
                                        
    but as i like the basic idea of     
 emanuelle and i want to keep it alive  
 i offered him to give me a chance and  
               so he did.               
                                        
    this issue of emanuelle will be     
compared with the mag which black priest
 is going to do and the better one will 
                survive!                
                                        
  i got a new co-editor whose name is   
                                        
            BULLDOG OF PADUA            
                                        
  together i think emanuelle can kick   
         again for the future!          
                                        
enough of this story, i think i've bored
          you enough for now.           
                                        
                                        

 for this issue the credits looks like  
                                        
 coding is completely done by AYATOLLAH 
                                        
 the graphix in the main-menue are done 
 by the master himself - OGAMI          
                                        
 the charset in the main-menue was      
 taken from a demo of THE LORDS         
                                        
 emanuelle logo in the text-output is   
 done by RANGER                         
                                        
 the music by JEFF of CAMELOT (thanx!)  
                                        
 and the charset for the text by SMB of 
 THE ANCIENT TEMPLE                     
                                        
 responsibility for the written text    
 will be taken by bulldog and ayatollah 
                                        
                                        
 this was it for the credits just to    
 keep you informed about everything!    
                                        

 the steering of the whole thing goes   
 like that                              
                                        
 in the MAIN part:

 joy #2 button to load the selected     
 chapter.                               
                                        
 in the TEXT part:                      
                                        
 joy #2 up and down to go a page back   
 or further!                            
                                        
 press '+' or '-' for the same as joy   
 up and down.                           
                                        
 press 'return' to go back to MAIN-part 
                                        
                                        
 not so difficult, isn't it??

  which is spread completely with the

  since the last issue was released 3   
 months ago i can't guarantee that you  
    can find all addies i got here.     
                                        
 reason: my room looks terrible at the  
 moment and i can't find anymore papers 
       with written down addies.        
                                        
i anyway hope you will NOT be too angry 
      and just send it once more!       
                                        
  you have also got the possibility to  
 make some serious and comercial spots  
                in here.                
                                        
                                        
 anyway take a look in here and read it 
 carefully, there might be some addies  
       you wanted ever so long!!

 TOYS                                   
 director:barry levinson                
 starring:robin williams,joan cusack..  
                                        
 in this bizarre hybrid of brazil and   
 willy wonka and the chocolate factory, 
 the hyperactive williams stars as les- 
 lie zevo, a toymaker trying to prevent 
 his demented uncle michael gambon from 
 converting the family toy factory into 
 an arms manufacturing plant. levinson, 
 who desperately needs a hit after the  
 twin disapppointments of avalon and    
 bugsy,has come bouncing back with this 
 wildly inventive,decidedly off-kilter  
 visual extravaganza that owes a huge   
 debt to tim burton.

 who then help him track down the love  
 of his life. one for mel's fully paid-

f:i started on the c64.i have swapped   
  but i have been to lazy for it!       
  it's so boring to send out disks!     
  paint gfx is just for guys who        
  haven't brain enuff to code(he he)    
  i leave things like painting to others

  natzionalism,nazism in europe???

  but think it's just on temporcry      
  inviolence!!                          
                                        
l:yes! a question about your way of     
  living.do you do anything else than   
  computing? what?

         PRINCIPIES OF PACKERS          
----------------------------------------
                                        
  here you can find a pretty good and   
  detailed information how to program   
packers and crunchers by yourself. next 
    part can be read in issue #13!!     
 it was written by BACCHUS of FAIRLIGHT 
                                        
compression is something everyone in the
 scene knows at least something about.  
                                        
one of the things that pisses me off is 
the lack of standardization in the names
choosen for the method of compression.  
this time i'll explain everything you   
should know about                       
                                        
CHARACTERPACKING                        
                                        
or char packing for short!              
                                        
examples on this category show a vast   
range of names:

name but a few.                         
                                        
some feature an option tto merge parts  
into one big file by packing them as    
datablocks.                             
                                        
examples here are:                      
                                        
psq-link, blockbuster, link & crunch,   
crosslink and sledgehammer.             
these are really lousy packers and      
shouldn't be used unless you TRULY have 
nothing else to use!                    
                                        
charpacking is a way to pack long rows  
of equal bytes into a short sequence,   
that will start signaling to the        
deppacker that it is a sequence to be   
interpreted, rather than part of the    
data.                                   
                                        

WHAT MAKES A CHARPACKER GOOD?           
                                        
well, before this i'll explain the basic
principies. the simple charpacker       
selects a controlcode for use. this     
controlbyte is then used as a signal to 
the depakcer to interpret what comes    
afterwards as data for depacking.       
                                        
take for example the row in memory that 
looks like this:                        
                                        
$32,$68,$0,$0,$0,$0,$0,$0,$0,$45,$68    
                                        
say the packer than always use the $f9  
byte as controlcode. it will be the     
substitute of the rows of zeros (or any 
other byte) with the sequence           
                                        
$f9,$xx,$yy where $f9 is the signal to  
the depacker, $xx is the byte and $yy is
the number of bytes.                    
                                        
the row above would then become somethin
like:                                   

$32,$68,$f9,$00,$07,$45,$68             
                                        
the depacker is linked as start of the  
file, and when run, automatically       
creates seven zeros from the sequence,  
without you even thinking of it.        
                                        
the problem is that $f9 might be present
in the memory but is then supposed to be
placed into memory, without beeing      
treated as a signal to the depacker.    
                                        
the answer is that it can't.            
                                        
most packers therefore use the          
combination $f9,$01,$f9 for representing
$f9 by itself. you noticed that this    
sequence was actually longer that the   
single $f9.                             
                                        
what kind of compression is that??      
                                        
well, the point is that you are supposed
to win more on the winning parts of the 
packer, that you loose or               

'error representation' where you loose  
bytes!                                  
                                        
this was the really simple theory to    
build on! the first thing we do is not  
to pick a standard byte but to select   
the least frequent byte, so that it will
be error represented as few times as    
possible.                               
                                        
we therefore scan the file for this byte
it is likely to be one of a small range 
that is less frequent, but scanning     
optimizes the choice! a rather new      
theory in this field is from            
                                        
             'QED/TRIANGLE'             
                                        
he thought of only counting the first   
controlbyte if there were more of them  
in a row.                               
the sequence $f9,$f9,$f9 contains three 
bytes to be error represented.          
                                        
the answer is NOT, as all three will be 

replaced with only one error            
represenation! smart jan!               
                                        
the next thing is to opimize control    
bytes. why have only one controlbyte??? 
                                        
if we select another one, we could have 
one specialized for representing zeros. 
lots of zeros in a row like the above.  
                                        
the represnetation for 7 zeros would    
then be CB,$07 (where CB from now on is 
controlbyte!)                           
                                        
this way of optimizing the row of zeros 
makes a packer more efficient by        
representing a sequence with fewer bytes
but you also have to pay by beeing      
forced to error represent more times.   
                                        
the number of controlcodes that will be 
efficient, will be the number that can  
produce a plus compared to THe number   
of times it mus be error represented.   
                                        

if you win $80 bytes on cb number 5, but
you loose $90 bytes error representing  
it, you'd live hapilly without it!      
                                        
for choosing the best controlbytes      
functions, you must analyze a large     
number of file with some kind of        
statistic program to generate a kind of 
database for finding the most efficient 
function controlbytes.                  
                                        
            EXAMPLES FOR USE            
                                        
cb, byte, lo, high  - for representing  
more than 256 bytes with one controlbyte
byg compacker uses this!!               
                                        
cb1, cbx - this is an example on how you
could do to remove the normal error     
representation, with a new one that only
uses two bytes rather than three. this  
takes for granted that cbx is to be     
represented only once. the effect on    
this one and qed's improvement go in the
same direction and are less efficient if

the other is also present!              
                                        
cb, byte - this one for representing    
three byte with only two. three byte    
sequences are rather common, and will   
produce a far better result that you    
first imagine.                          
                                        
some packers have compression methods   
that is not actual equalbyte compression
                                        
byg compacker features something called 
equal steps (or something like that, i  
don't have a version with the docspages 
on left...).                            
                                        
i guess this is something like:         
                                        
cb, start, steps - for cb, startvalue   
(say $02), $08 for covering             
2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,$a. i don't know this,  
as i didn't dig into this packer, but i 
suppose this is the case.               
                                        
NOW:                                    

charpackers produces a result that is   
fairly uninteresting, as almost all of  
the files are supposed to be sequence   
crunched afterwards. a sequence cruncher
works in a totally different way, that i
intend to cover in a followup to this   
article. some packers seem to produce a 
result that can be called plain garbage 
(like the ebc) but after crunching, they
come strong.                            
                                        
certain packers work well with certain  
crunchers, and there is really no easy  
way to foresee this, but by testing.    
                                        
the ebc is especially good with the     
darksqueezer and zipper is best with    
cruelcrunch. the xtc-packer and illusion
packer seem great when you see the      
result they produce but they loos big   
after crunching, no matter which        
cruncher you use!                       
                                        
the only one that works great with all  
cruncher is FAIRLIGHT'S own             

X-TERMINATOR packer, which might be     
released to pulic rather soon!          
                                        
you now know most of what is important  
to know if you intend to make           
                                        
              THE ULTIMATE              
                                        
charpacker, that will stun the world.   
the only way to learn more is to dig    
into packers by others, and check out   
the smart things in them, as well as    
experimenting with your own ideas!      
                                        
good luck, and remember to send me a    
result if your efforts succeed!

  this is an article which was kindly   
 written by BACCHUS about a meeting in  
   sweden last week when SNEAKERS had   
   premiere and all old hackers met!    
                                        
   read and ejnoy this cool report!!    
                                        
                                        
             howdy hackers!             
                                        
'RE UNIONS' is something you often come 
across when you passed your teens.      
old classes, sportteams and the lot,    
want to meet  you again.                
if you've been on one, you know that you
have stuff  to talk about for half an   
hour ('what are you doing these days?') 
and then for the next hour you gossip   
about the persons, who didn't show up   
(which is the only good reason to go in 
the first place!)                       

then they get really boring.            
'RE UNIONS' for hackers has never been  
seen before but now it has, and this one
was pure fun!!                          
                                        
NATAS of HORIZON, for years on the mac  
and also one behind the organizers of   
the VAARBY party near stockholm, thought
that the premiere of 'SNEAKERS' would be
a good occasion to gather a few good    
friends from the old days.              
                                        
the thing grew, and he dug through his  
old contact books and suddenly he had   
170 names registered on his list for    
those who wanted to come!               
                                        
WHO WHERE THERE?                        
                                        
a lot of the really famous guys from the
old days were there.                    
                                        
                                        
                                        
                                        

amongst those:                          
                                        
 - the guys from the REAL triad were    
   present: IXION (the old leader before
   jerry took over!)

  MR. Z (you could hear the buzz of the 
  crowd and saw lots of fingers pointing
  at him when he was recognized by the  
  rest of us.

   across when i started 'we against    
   software protection!'                
   nobody and sir galahad showed up.    
   sir galahad then went to WCC (west   
   coast crackers) and at the breakup   

   of this group he was one of the      
   formers of fairlight, now under the  
   handle 'black shadow!'

   the alchemist (who took over the     
   responibility to be the main cracker 
   after gollum!) and rowdy plus

 - AGILE  elric, who is now a           
   modemtrader for quartex on the amiga!
   karl 12 or k12, as he wants to put it
   nowadays, was also present with some 
   weird friends (as usual!)            
   i might misplace leader, if i put him
   among the guys who have been in agile
   but he was also there.               
                                        
 - PARAGON a few dudes from paragon;    
   amongst those necromancer (who's     
   stupid and a great nerd!)            

   hellraiser and a fev others. i think 
   they are all in other groups, but    
   they were all talking about pc these 
   days.                                
                                        
 - SHA  swedish hacking association are 
   a bunch of real hackers who hack into
   boards. they got pretty famous some  
   half a year ago, when they had hacked
   into a board that belonged to a      
   company that sells 'safe logg on     
   systems!' sha downloaded all         
   documentations to backdoors Yn the   
   system the company has installed.    
   they then went to the papers offering
   to sell access to all boards!        
                                        
 - HORIZON  zagor and badger are twins

   with him. also mastermind and kjer   
   were present!                        
                                        
 - THUNDERCATS  sony(who is the elder   
   brother of mastermind/horizon) was   
   there. he left the scene as a member 

    of triad but has also been in

  - SCIENCE 451  gaunt who then went to 
    fairlight and named after his real  
    family name; danko. now in censor

    living group!)                      
                                        
 also worth mentioning are the ones who 
 had paid, but who didn't show up:      
                                        
 3d/triad,scc (swedish cracking crew)

 service!) phs was the author of the    
 renown ccs-mon that all crackers used  
 in the 80's, mr. pinge/relax, strider  
 of fairlight, janitor/triad (both      
 janitor and strider now live in the us)
 and a few others we would have wanted  
 there.                                 
 Also some newer9guys, who might be well
 known now,but who wasn't in the late   
 80's were: creeper/fhi, spirou/light   

 (who showed up without knowing that    
 there would be lots of others there!)  
 jordan/antic, the twins ratpoison/noice
 and decoder/censor, goblin & flamingo  
 of light, motley/genesis               
                                        
 after the whole event we all decided to
 go to a pub called 'EAST'.             
 the younger guys leaved there because  
 the age limit there is 23 and so some  
 guys weren't allowed to enter.         
                                        
this event was worth going to stockholm 
and i enjoyed it very much, indeed!!    
                                        
                                        
                                        
                                        
                                        
                                        
                                        
                                        
                                        
                                        
                                        

    the next article was written by     
    3star of warriors of wastelands     
                                        
it contains a report about the scene in 
his country which seems 2 be pretty lame
                                        
           ABOUt COMPUTING IN           
              SLOVENIA !!!              
                                        
here in my country is really no scene or
any group and demo activity. all the    
guys who owe a c-64 are game players and
only one guy buys games from ex-hotline 
and sell them to people.i think in my   
country are about 20.000 c-64's and it  
seems pretty lame to me that all those  
guys just playin games. anyway more than
half of them are still using datasettes 
depending on the money. on the other    
hand it's no suprise that those people, 
who have got a bit more money,simply    
buy an amiga for game laming! i'm not   
sure for amiga and pc but as far as i   
know there are no groups down here. just
some lamers calling themselves !!!      

yes there are bbs's for amiga and pc but
what you could find there is like they  
never saw a real bbs.                   
i don't know why is it that lame because
if you take a look at other eastern     
countries like poland and checholowakia 
then i really admire them. could u      
imagine that i (3star) and my friend    
888 are only "active" guys on c-64. we  
are not so economical behind other est. 
countries but where the hell are we? now
maybe it will move something from the   
dead line when i'll release the 1st C64 
COMPUTER MAGAZINE in slovenia. i will   
show a bunch of cool gfx and musics and 
ask people if they can code,draw or     
make musics, to send examples to me.    
i hope (i really do!) that it will be   
successful and some guys will send      
and show what they could do. otherwise  
it would be best to throw my computer   
out of the window!                      
some time ago i contacted a man who is  
responsible for the articles in a paper 
computer magazine, and asked him if he  

could arrange me some place for text    
about 64 in his magazine.here is what he
said:'if i'd start writing text about 64
then all the salesmen and shops who are 
still selling commodore will again say  
that c-64 is the best computer and then 
other computers like amiga,atari or pc  
have no chance to breakthrough'.i lost  
the phone and had no breath for about 10
seconds. so if somebody who is there to 
make users of all kinds of computers    
happy and satisfied talking that kind   
of shit then to who should i turn to??? 
that was one of the biggest dissapoint- 
ments of my life so i think it's the    
right thing what i have decided-to make 
an independet computer magazine.maybe   
all the work will be for nothing but i  
could never excuse myself if i didn't   
try it. someone of you will say why the 
fuck do you care about them. i do it at 
least because everyone have the right to
see how much fun a c-64 could give. i   
think that no computer will never be so 
'friendly' and creative. why else       

it's so much harder to make a picture,  
music or code on c-64. you simply don't 
have the hardware ailities an amiga can 
offer you. you have to be creative to do
a good picture on 64.you are forced to  
put 10 more times to finish it. and why 
the hell we simply don't say:'why do we 
spend so much time on the c64?' it's up 
to you to decide!                       
so we'll see maybe at the end of this   
year their might be a good demo or group
coming from slovenia.  at least i hope  
so.                                     
                                        
                                        
                                        
i hope you enjoyed this little article  
which was done by 3star of wow.         
it came directly from heart and think   
about those guys who don't even get a   
final cartridge in a normal computer    
shop.                                   
                                        
crazy, isn't it??                       
                                        

 you won't believe it but there is one  
         more article to come!
