Splash-making team. In some magazines the group is
declared dead, but as we got a send from Mr.Brain/Acy,
who says: Yes, Falcon left the scene, but Acy and Splash
aren´t dead just for that, I´ll take over the leadership and
the role as an editor for the magazine aswell,but I can´t
tell you when it´s going to get released as I´m into very much
right now...

status was posted on the U.S boards:

Callers Busted!
Well, this time it was Dr.Acid and Barfly/Extend turn to get
busted! They have used Finish tele-cards for some month now,and
suddenly the police were tracking them...
They took all the computer equipment away from Barfly and now
Dr.Acid waits for a razzia at his house too...
Beware all, the security system for the Telecom´s have been im-
proved.. more about that in issue nine!
Last Words:
Hmm, guess that march will be an exciting month, what is the
real truth about the death of TRSI? Why do all wanna join
Talent? Will Sh0ck be released again? Willl you vote for this

Some facts:
All types of groups have the change to enter the charts,
not only demo- or crackergroups!
All members in the groups on the charts are at least
registrated in one counted magazine.
I count each point a member or a mag receives in the
selected disc-magz!
Mags released this period were:
'
AddyBook #15
ChitChat #05
Earthquake #20
Magness #05
NewsPress #13
Revealed #03
Update #10
Well, only magagazies with smaller charts were released this time
and the will ofcourse affect the MegaChart too...
The charts in the magz were more up to date than they ever have
been, inactive groups made big falls and active ones climbed as
never before, but that´s they way it goes sooner or later,right?
Also, the big magazines,like Splash,aren´t that often released and
many of the votes get old,but they´re counted and do ofcourse
dominate the charts,got it?
Well, now, some suprises will follow on the pages and new for
this issue is that I also created single Megacharts,read them then
you´ll know the names of the sceneheros of the beginning of 1994!!

Facts about charts
* Out of the chart: * Near the chart:
ILLUSION (dead) MOTIV 8 (1898)
EPIC (dead) SPIRIT (1628)
COMIC PIRATES (dead?) LIGHT (1632)
Three groups died and went out, the longawaited entry from
Extend is suddenly true,smashed in at place 15!
Fun to see TWO polish groups now in the chart,I think the c-64
future lies in Poland,more right than wrong,eh?
Also,very nice to see that the voters today take more care before
filling in those tons of sheets,unactive groups don´t belong in the
chart and it´s very fun to see many newcommers too...
Let´s just hope that it´ll continue like this in the future too...

Well, here you got one of the two parts viewing we in the staff
will make in each issue, the other part is ofcourse the vote-sheet
charts, but the votes were to few this time as we haven´t even
released the vote-sheet yet, but some dudes sent in votes on
paper, thanks, the votes will be in next issue...
Yes, don´t forget to vote fair for fair charts, got it?!
Don´t forget to send in the votes in time, course old votes won´t be
counted as we all want fresh and fair charts, not old and unactive
ones...
Also, you miss the Euro-board chart, but only the FLT-boards

The Ultimate C-BBS PeeZee/64
by: Sledge/FLT
You may have heard rumours about a new bbs program called
c-bbs or Tron bbs? It´s the new BBS program done by the main
coder in Fairlight, namely Tron.
This new BBS program is in some ways different from other BBS
programs on the C64, bcoz you don´t run it on a 64, but on a PC
computer (finally PC can do something useful!). The program is
developed on a 16 Mhz PC 386 computer in C environment. That
means it´s a real fast program too.
Why Tron decided to make a BBS program on a PC for 64 users is
quite simple. He wanted to have a powerful board that ways fast
, easy to expand and cheap equipment. On a PC you have 640k
memory to use and if you have more the 1 megabyte in your
computer, then you can use cache programs for greater speed.
And PC computers are cheap today, atleast if you buy a XT or a
286 computer. A complete XT system with 20 megs HD and 640k
memory + CGA monitor can be found at a price of 50-100 dollars
today.
And that is a real cheap system too if you just are going to
use it as a board. And a XT is fast too for 2400 bps users. It will
run as fast as any C64 board with a HD. But you can take advatage
of backup programs copy programs, defragment programs when
your HD are fragmented like hell.
The program is completely compatible with Cbase 64. That means
you can convert all the mail and letters that have been done on
your old system. Even the userlog can be converted. That is
something very useful. Bcoz who would like to buy a new BBS
program when you already have a powerful board that have a
big base of posts and users. Then it´s very useful to take the
whole userfile and mail with it.
The outifit is very like Cbase, but there are some improve-
ment too. It has got a better sub system, with a fullscreen editor
for 80 columns users. And it has got Punter, Xmodem, Ymodem
and Zmodem protocols with heavily improved UD area.
C-BBS is a 100% full working color graphic board. And it will look
just like you called a real C64 board, only bigger and faster
(it all depends on the equipment you use).
It will support 40 and 80 column display, with c/g, ansi and acsii
as options. Even the sysop will se a 40 column display when some-
one logs onto with 40 column choosen.
Everything to keep the real feeling there of running a real 64
board.
Users will see new improvements on the E-Mail, UD and subs-
system sides. When you have more then 1 mail in your private
mailbox you will be able to choose which one you want to read
first unlike Cbase scroll system which can be quite annoying
sometimes. And you can delete just one mail if you wanna keep
the other for further use.
On the sysop side there will be a total change to what Cbase users
are used to. You will now have better group access, mail to all
users command, better access editor etc. The list can be long.
It will also have a FREE network module included. And a personal
network code too so that everyone that wan7t to take part of the
C-BBS NETWORK can be that. And that is something real cool.
The board will pack all mail files with PKZip or something like
that and then send it. No transfertime what so ever.
The sysop will also be able to connect a C64 in the COM2: port on
the pc with a nullmodem cable. So that he can see logon to the PC
and see how everything looks on his C64. That is a great deal when
you have modded your prompts and would like to see how it really
looks like for a caller. And then you can transfer files from the
C64 in a easy way. Perhaps quite slow if you don´t have a Swiftlink
or a C128 (9600 bps). But then again, there are utilities and tools
on how to build a cable and connect a 1541 to the com post on the
PC and direct copy files form the 64 diskdrive.
-->
SKAUNE - Living on The Edge... @>@
The Ultimate C-BBS continue...
But then you might think, the PC has got only 8+3 chars, that will
look stupid. But no, the C-BBS has got full length filenames up to
16 chars so that all files will look the same. Great, isn´t it?
The program will also be compatibly with the new Novell-
Dos version 7.0, which supports longer filenames then 8+3 chars
like the standard Dos. But for you guys that don´t have or don´t
want to have Novell Dos 7, keep to your old system and that´s fine
too, because you will be able to use 16 chars filenames anyway.
This is perhaps the best BBS program up to date for C64 users.
And this program is expandable beyond imaginations, since you
have so much memory to use. This will perhaps be the most
popular BBS program too, since it can handle all famous modes
like C/G (64 & 128), ANSI (PC/AMIGA), ASCII for all others. And
mainly because of the low price of the program, probably to be
set around 350 skr or 44 dollars. And you will get alot for your
44 dollars too, a BBS program for C64, PC, AMIGA and
a NETWORK module, prompt editor, Cbase 3.0 mail/posts/user
converter so that C*Base owners won´t be left behind.
I suggest you to buy this program if you want to have the C64
board of the 90´s when NETWORKING is something HOT and will
be more and more usual. It can´t be better then this. Get it!

F4CG Eastern Party (for C-64 only!)
Hey dudes! This time the raw guys in FFourCG are arranging a
party in Italy!
The party is the very first one held in Italy,so try your best to
come as it will surely be an awesome situation...
The place is in a little town near Udine (which is about 120km
from Venice..) called Plsino di Pagnacco (uh!?),with room for no
more than 100 people.. This is B-coz this party is just an exper-
iment and if we (I) see it goes well, we will arrange a bigger one
at the end of June!
We don´t wanna say that we have mega-record-breaking prizes
for the democompo. just B-coz there won´t be any compo as long
as we don´t get atleast 5 groups taking part of it...
Instead a music and graphic compo will be held,and as there is NO
democompo,the prizes willl (hopefully) be quite high.
Entrance: 30DM,35$
Date: 4-5 April (Eastern)
The entrance includes free drinks and pizzas as long as we have
ones left,also some cafeteria...
As the place is so little,there aren´t any shop or bar,but there is
one about 200 m far from the place.
The partyline will sadly NOT be at the partyplace as well use for
it the line of Playboy´s home!
It´s prefered that you book a place B-coz if you come and there is
no room left,you´lll be kicked out after 11.00 pm.
For more detailed information,book a table or for even a map,

TCC is cancelled!!!
Well as we wrote in the last issue,that we and Horizon would
organize the TCC party for the second year is sadly cancelled!
Why? The budget didn´t match the plans, we needed about
300.000 SEK (about 40.000$) more to run the party and that was
too much, the sponsors couldn´t fill the gap so the party had to be
cancelled,but we do still work on a TCC-party for 1995,see you
then...

Hello scenefolks! I want you all to read this article and wake up

This scene is right now being destroyed by all these fucking
magazines around. Why does every fucking group got to have a
magazine? I don´t think it´s so very fun to get a sending with 2 or
3 magz on and nothing else...
I don´t think is is so very stimulating to read the same charts,
same news, same reactions in every single mag. I think that you
mag-editors should learn how to code or draw graphics or make
music and you should start to make demos instead.
We all don´t want a scene with only magazines,do we?? No,ofcoz
not...
Mark my words when I´m saying that this scene is turning into a
magascene!
Why can´t two or three magazines go together into one bigger,
more fair, better mag or best of all, why not just have one disc-
mag were for exaple the 10-20th best magz have joined forces
and created a super mag, this would do a mag more objective,
more fair in charts, more text each issue!
Think about this idea and hopefully some of you will go together
to create a supermag, but sadly enough, I think that you out
there are far too egoistic to do this...
But I can promise you that we would get a far much better scene
with more DEMOS around...
Depeh/Antic
ED´s WORD:
Well as I AM a mag-editor, I think i could give Depeh an answer.
First of all, the amount of magazines haven´t grown but have de-
creased! But why you feel like it only excist magz is becoz there
nearly aren´t any demos produced anymore, only a few each
month. Not like the old days when there were plenty of demos
around, but why aren´t there any demos? The answer is splitted,
but my own opinion is following:
1.In the past it took one week to create a demo, it was one filed
ones with quite simple code,but scrollers!
Nowdays it takes month to create those 1 disc demos with lots of
new scene records and design, if anyone releases a smalll demo,
nobody likes it, the time has changed! We want big demos in
these days which are Amigainspirated (TowerPower), not those
small demos from three letter groups like we wanted 1990!
2.The amount of coders have decreased the last year which is
naturally as many have left for the Amiga and PC scene. They
which not left, are sometimes not qualified to create a BIG
superdemo with 15 parts,but can easily code an outfit for a
magazine...
Well, got it, and further on with your thoughts of a Supermag.
That idea is only going to work in the ways of theory,coz the
sceners live too far away from each others and would have
problems to communicate,even if all got modems!
But if it would work, i surely agree with you Depeh!

CROSSFIRE by Enduro/FLT
Hmm, where to start this article about the jerk himself:
CROSSFIRE/MOTIV 8
Well, as you all can read in the subs of Cyberdome, I and X-fire
have a little cute war, but why? Read on...
It all started when X-fire let Epic die and founded Motiv 8,where
he still is in... We in the Reformation staff got the news that not
all Epic-members were informed about the actions and that the
group Vision joined up in Motiv 8 too...
Well,we printed these news in issue 7 after checking it all out,coz
we DON´T print false news in this magazine, but three days after
the release I got a note from X-fire called: Correction to #07. In
this note he claimed that he sure had informed ALL Epic
members in time before the splitting and that only three Vision
members did join M8, "the only useful ones"from Vision as X-fire
said! He also wrote that if you wanna read true news then read
The Pulse (a mag were he is a co-editor in)!
I didn´t take too much notice of this note, but would have it in
mind and give appologies in the next issue for writing that the
whole Vision crew joined M8 and not just 3 of them, yes it´s true,
what a crime I did writing those horrible things!!
But,then I called Cyberdome and what did I see,X-fire acused
Reformation for being a LAMER magazine and that nobody he
knows likes it, only lamers do...
It was now I became ANGRY on that bastard, why did he write
those words I thought and tried to call him up,but he HANGED
up,how lame! So from now on I am in a personal war with that
creep til he gives the whole Reformation staff an appologie, got
that Kim?? Or are you too shy or lame?
Enough now, but before you call us lamers,recall your moves
when you did put Motiv 8 as number one in the charts of your
very own Pulse-magazine...

SWAPPMANIA by Bacchus/FLT
Howdy hackers!
I´d like to discuss swapping.
Why swapping???
I take that swapping may have two purposes; For bigger groups
that produce lots of materials of their own, it´s a way of spreading
the stuff to a wider audience. Hopefully some of the persons who
get the disk will pass it on further.
The other alternative is that you want programs someone else has
so you send stuff to trade with in order to get the stuff.
In both cases there must be an obvious point in having the data
on the disk intact. If files on the disk are broken, then there was
no point in sending that file at all.
And yet, every week I get a few packs with disks that seem like
they passed hell and returned. They have opended sleves, no
cover sleves, visible defects on the media and so on...
Obviously these disks don´t work, or only work partially. Please
tell me the reason to send one of those.
When I started computing in 85, I spent the same amount of
money, buying one disk as I now pay for ten. Also the quality is so
much better. Even the highest quality of disks could freak out and
be useless to the reciever.
So, if disks are so cheap, and the need to pass on the data is the
primaty target, why do people send these disks???
I´ll tell you a secret: All copy program I know of have a feature
called verify. This function makes the program tell you when it
didn´t manage to put the data safely on the disk! Turning verify
OFF is saving a time, but the cost in the other end is obvious: You
cannot trust the output from your system!
I discussed the subject with Surfer/Active, and his opinion was
that he only sent the disks, so that the receiver got a look on
what Active had produced. As most of them don´t pass the
programs on, he could see no use in sending working programs.
I guess Surfer could just as well swapp printouts of the directory,
which wouldn´t be as wulnerable as the disks.
I think this is idiotic!
So;
* Send -working- disks
* Use verify while copying
* Use some sort of hard paper to protect the disks
* Always send back the stamps!
If you cannot fulfill these demands, then don´t bother sending to
me. That´s for sure!

NETWORK - PREFACE
What computer network spans the world, offers faster inter-
continental transmissions than normal modems, contains giga-
bytes of software and is legal? The answer is:
Internet!
A network built around universities and schools around the world
The network is available in just about all cities in Europe,
Scandanavia, North and South America, Asia and Africa. In fact,
if you´ve been able to see through all the hype about Cyberspace,
but still believe that a global computer network is a kewl idea,
this is the real life version you want... And it´s mighty kewl!
The things you can get hold of on internet is just about everything
you might think of, and some things you don´t think of, too! The
services available on Internet are divided into several groups:
File Transfer: Normally via FTP (File Transfer Protocol) You can
log onto sites that keep all goodies in directories,
and you can download it for free. Much like normal
BBS systems... There are illegal FTP sites too!
Multichat: IRC is a system which let people log on and chat
with eachother, usually in subgroups such as
"hackers", "Elite dudes" or "hen-lovers" Serveral
kewl dudes from the PC and AMIGA scenes are
regulary chatting on IRC.
News: A system of spreading news around the globe. The news
are divided into topics, for example comp.sys.amiga.hard-
ware and comp.sys.cbm, where dudes like Antitrack and
The Chief from the scene write about there ideas and
problems. If you need information, and believe somebody
knows the answer, just post a question on news.
Latests News: there will be a comp.sys.cbm.binaries section
where new C64 stuff will be available for downloading!
System resources: By using TELNET you can log on to other
computers around the globe and run public
programs such as file search systems, which
let you search for a file around the world, or
search for books, by logging into the library
of congress.
E-Mail: This is a big service, Almost 10 million people are con-
nected to e-mail (nobody knows exactly how many!) for
example Bacchus, Tron, Watchman, Antitrack,
The Chief, most dudes in Triangle and many, many
others (President Bill Clinton have e-mail!). The big catch
is this: If you only can get e-mail, you can use resources
so that the library of congress.
How do you get internet access?
As said before, almost all cities have a local connection, even
though it might only be 2400 Baud to the local computer, the rest
of the transfer around the world might reach Mbit speed! If you
don´t have the phone#, or haven´t internet access at school, you
can always talk to the sysop at the nearest College or University,
it shouldn´t be impossible to at least get an e-mail adress.
You might have to pay a monthly fee, but then you can use it as
much as you want. The big saving is the time to transfer files, and
that you usually only have to pay the local area phone toll. I,
myself will probably have to pay 150SEK/month for my internet
connection at home, but then I´ll have 2 Mbit transfer directly
onto my harddisk! It won´t take long to save that money by
cutting down on my phone usuage!

CONNECTION PROBLEMS...
Now over to the connection problem. Most people get their
access at their school or university, so find out if there in any
internet e-mail available at your school, and if you can get an
account. Even if you can´t get ftp, news, telnet, irc or the other
services, an e-mail account will give you access to these services
inderectly, I will talk about how that is possible later on. If you
can´t get e-mail at the school, instution or at work, then you can
get an account at a commercial dial-up centre. I only know of

Deep Space Nine:
Well, another NEXT GENERATION of the Star Trek Saga.
Not Directed by GENE RODDENBERRY but it plays completely in
the Original Star Trek Universe....
The Story so far....
Deep Space Nine is a Space Station in the Orbit of a Planet
named "Bajo" which was under the Control of a Race named
the "Cardassians".
As the Cardassians left the Planet they also left their Headquarter
Space Station Deep Space Nine.
The Bajorans asked the Federation of the United Planets for Help
to get their Planet to democracy and to be a Part oof the
federation.
Cpt.Sisco, is the oone who has to overtak the Station which is a
Complete City with Shops and Amusement parts and take it to a
Federation Outpost and to Guarantee the Bajorans Freedom and
Safety against the Cardasians.
Once Arrived with the Enterprise under the Command of
the Wellknown Cpt.Jean Luc Picard he directly comes in some
trouble as his Peope find a kind of Stabile Wormhole.
This Wormhole Guarantees a Kind of Trading Monopole and
nearly all Races want this Position for their own.
The whole thing comes oout of Control as a Cardassian WarShip
and a Federal Space Glider get lost in the Wormhole.
Comments:
All in all a nice Series, but the Stories are a bit too boring.
Most of the Time stupid Blah Blah, but the Special Effects are
like from one of the Best Movies ever made.
Even the "Next Generation" of Star Trek doesn´t have that
ammount of Special Effects which are made with an Amiga 4ooo.
Who framed the Vulcans?
SeaQuest:
Well, a TV Series Directed by Steven Spielberg and
sponsored by COMMODORE.
The Story so far....
The Date is somewhere in the next Century and Mankind finally
discovered the last Mystery on Earth. The Oceans.
They settled on the Oceans Ground and several Countrys made
Finacial Alliances to get all the Profit from the Grounds of
the International Oceans
Due to the Fact that there are naturally Borderwars, the Leading
Nations found the "United Earth Organisation ´UEO´"
With Money they got from Donations the built the biggest
Submarine ever, the SeaQuest.
A Ship that is 300 Meters Long, the outher Skin is a Lifeform to
protect the Ship against the High Pressures of the Deep Waters.
As a Female Captain Ignores the commands from the HQ of the
UEO Northberg, they try to get one of the Designers named
"Jonathan Bridger" as Captain for the Seaquest.
Bridger has Quitted the navy Service as his Son and his Wife Died
and started to learn Dolphins to Communicate with him.
But finally he Takes over the Command of the Ship and is ready
for a lot of Adventures.
Comments:
Well, Due to the Fact that the Series is Sponsored by
Commodore it has a fuckin´ lot of kewl Grafixx and Effects.
But the Storys mostly Suck Disk.
I´m disappointed about Steven Spielbergs work in this
Series and better someone should shoot the

Introduction:
For the last issue i reviewed all the demos released at the Herning
party 1993. But, for some technical reasons, like errors on the disk
we had to skip it. And I´m not very fond of writing it all again.
I have a new form of setting points for the demos. I give extra
points depending on how many parts there is.
Consider, you make a demo with only one part. You make
everything almost perfect. That would result in a very high grade
for the demo. Therefor I give 2 percents of the score extra for
every part. This is just done to make the points more fair.
I will also publish all the scores for every issue, and in the end of
1994 we´ll se what demo scored the best during the year.
Anyway, For this issue I´ve only got my hands on two demos:
Torture III from PADUA
Tales of Mystery from SPIRIT
Please note: I will only give positive scores for the TURN DISK
part. So if there´s only graphics I won´t give any points for code
since it would drag down the average score.

Torture III - Padua
THE INTRO
You see some heartbeats and hear some beeps. They go faster and
faster and ends with the death of whomever it was.
The line divides and goes apart and the beep turns to music. Some
text followed by the Grim Reaper, DEATH. It fades away, some
more text. A logo is shown and after some seconds blood appears
beneath. Fades, more text and a Torture 3 logo. Text and it fades
away.

PART 2
First there a short sample saying "Here we are..." sung by Freddie
Mercury. Some blue ´padua´-sprites appear on top and bottom

PART 3
The screen fades to grey. Then a paperwrapping animation
making a hole in the middle. A Padua logo fades up in the hole.
The grey sorroundings disappear, the logo changes colors to
braun. It stretches upwards and doubles its size. Moves down and
get some more colors.
It starts to load, after a while sideborder scrolls is shown on the

Code: 6/10
Gfx: 5/10
Music: 5/10

PART 5
This part is really weird. That´s mainly because of the strange
tune. On top there´s some text written in different colors. Below,
three interference circles is shown. Unfortunately it´s not actual
interference. After this the part bugs out totally, so I cannot
comment this part further.
Code: 5/10
Gfx: 3/10
Music: 5/10

First some graphics advertising ´Spirit Entertainment´. It fades
away, another picture showing a piece of forest. Next picture
appear. Some monks with torches walk on a path up to
Stonehenge. Yet another picture, this one with a logo saying:
´Tales of Mystery´ and below a monk is reaching for the sky in
some sort of ritual. The monkpart of the picture disappears and
it loads. Some of the graphics are converted but atleast they have
the courtesy to tell us.

number of pictures are shown.

PART 3
On top of the screen we have (again) some trees with a square in
the middle. In the square we have some shade-line-vectors. A new
effect. Underneath this a Spirit logo with some kind of movie-
flasher. On top of the graphics there´s an expanded spritescroller.

PART 4
First of all a FLI-picture slides in from the right and slides out
after some seconds.
A halfscreenpicture of some eyes and two hands reaching against
us. Between the hands a small Spirit logo.
Below this there´s some scrollers on top of a 2 screen wide
AFLI-mover. Just one thing I dislike, the effect is too far to the
right. I know it´s not possible to centre it, but it sure looks ugly.

PART 5
An IFLI picture is shown. Nothing more to say.
Since this isn´t actually a part I won´t count the code in this one.
Gfx: 8/10
Music: 8/10
Design: 3/10
PART 6
Two logos appear on the middle of the screen. One saying
´Tales of´ and one saying ´mystery´. They move apart and stop at
the top and bottom of the screen. On the right middle part of the
screen some text explains what´s happening.
In the middle a poor starfield with some vectorbobs. After a
while you get some filled vectors. And as the final they put it all
together. Vectorbobs with filled vectors around it. Looking good...
