Hi Herman, >> Now offering? Where is it? Nono, we were discussing if they had to use the "GmbH" suffix everytime they publish anything ( in the future)… Bye Alex
Hi Martin, >> Of course on the other hand, if I had an A4000 tower sitting here on my desk right now I could care less if it had GmbH on it or >> not. 🙂 Same goes for me 🙂 Bye Alex
Hi Jim, >> The advertising says "We are now offering the Amiga Technologies A5000 with built-in 24-bit graphics, 68060 CPU, 16-bit >> 8-channel sound, SCSI-2 controller, CD-ROM, and gigabyte drive…." >>And at the bottom of the page it says, in small print, "Amiga Technologies GmbH is a wholly owned subsidiary…
Hi Martin, >> r.e. GmbH, I wouldn't think it would have to be part of the trade name. You see BMW and Mercedes here all the time without >> the GmbH added to the name. Sure they don't. Because they are an AG :)) No, seriously. If they make anything…
Hi Christian, >> But the ads and all don't need them, right? Well, they don't have to put it in big letters. They can have a big headline with "Amiga Technologies" and somewhere at the bottom of the page in a tiny scribble "Amiga Technologies GmbH"… Bye Alex
Hi Steve, >> Amiga Technologies, if they must. But drop the german GmbH (I think that's Gemeinshaft something). There is nothing >> inherantly wrong with GmbH, Ltd. or so forth, but it may sound foreign for most international users. Plus, it's kind of absurd to >> mix languages in the…
Hi Asha, >> That sounds like a lot more work than doing it in DPaint. When my back is more healed I'm going to try something simple in >> DPaint V. If that works I'll do it there. If that doesn't work, I'll re-install DPaint IV and do it there.…
#What is blitzblank
Message #196686
Hi Asha, >> Thing is, there is no option to limit OpalPaint to, say, only 16 colors, and no anim-brushs. I haven't explored the animation >> capabilities of it but, since memory useage is so critical to modules, I don't think making them in 24 bit would be a good…
Hi Asha, >> Let's see, some kind of spaceship (B5, the Starfuries, NC 1701) might be nice, or maybe some "flying" (with wings) Boing balls >> or something like that. Hmm, I will think about that. What should the spaceship do? Maybe just fly around before some starfield background? >>…
Hi Asha, >> It's a slow process, but it's coming along, thanks for the good wishes! :)) >> I've gotten two betas from him in the past few weeks. Both work just fine (as I tried to tell him in email). I suspect his hub >> problems are adding to…
Hi Bart, >> I have found it. It is called BLITZB.LHA in the screen utilities library. For one reason or another it was not in my libraryfile. Good. Now for the interesting part: How do you like it? 🙂 >> Most definitely. I am a programmer, I know. I thought…
Hi Asha, >> Oh goodie! This will be a nice addition to the program. I thought so, too 😉 But I don't think it will make it into the next release. Right now he is pondering over the transition of BlitzBlankPrefs from BlitzBasic to C. This will be a rather…
Hi Asha, >> Oh dear…I've been flat on my back for the majority of the last week, and am still taking muscle relaxants (bad back). I >> barely get through my mail…:( Sorry to hear that. I hope you'll get well soon… >> Tell Thomas that I've sent him netmail…
Hi Asha, >> I've got it twice in the Modules directory so that it displays more often. I keep Thomas bugging to implement a feature that lets you configer the display time for each module, so that you can say that the AMosaic should run 5 minutes, the snow 2…
Hi Jonathan, >> Here is something that I would love to see in BlitzBlank that I miss from both SuperDark and DesktopMagic… MOD >> players or at least some animations WITH sound. Actually, I think most modules should have a sound option and that >> there should be some sort…
Hi Asha, >> Same with me and the butterflies. I'd like to do another one, and possibly redo the butterflies (they don't flutter right) but I >> just haven't had the time or any real inspiration lately..;/ I can just tell you that Thomas is waiting impatiently to hear from…
Hi Bart, >> Have you any idea where I can find the Blitzblanker? I have looked for it in the libraries but I seem to be unable to locate it. Well, it should be in the screen utilities library. I guerss it is called BBlank250.lha. >> I believe that's the…
Hi James, >> Yes, from Italy. There you have it 😉 Bye Alex
Hi Bart, >> I'll try it out when I have the time. Thanks for the info. I assure you that you won't regret it. But if you encounter problems, please let me know… >> The ones in Brussels are usually even from the better kind. Where I come from you…
Hi Asha, >> Have you seen the Arose module for BB? It's spectacular! Oops, I forgot to comment on this. Yes this modle is definetly awesome. I would really like to know if this is based on tables or on a function. Anyway it looks great. I could sit for…
Hi Jonathan, >> I like Blitzblanker, but it is missing one important feature…. a random module selector. Well, I don't know what version of BlitzBlank you are using, but the 2.50 and up definetly have a random module selector. You just double-click on the module you want to put on…
Hi Asha, >> You did the Amigasign? WOW! It's one of my favorite ones! Yes. But I must admit, that I have only made the grafix 🙂 But thank you anyway very much 🙂 Do you use the 256 color version? In my opinion this is much better than the…
Hi James, >> Hi, my wife's name is Marion on her birth certificate, however her license >> and everything else has it spelled Marian, she also blames her Mom (my she >> rest in peace), she also claims that Marion is for males and Marian for >> females. well, we…
Hi Bart, >> What is blitzblank? It is the BEST blanker for the Amiga. It is in the Screen Utilities section. It is Giftware and even has a module with grafix from me in it (AmigaSign) 😉 >> Cheap commercial. In Belgium, people “don't'' use shareware. :(( That is a…
Hi Rick, >> Yo, Alex, what date were you born? I was born in '70, too (Apr 6). Well Rick, you beat me almost exactly 2 months. I was born June 3th :)) Bye Alex
Hi Bart, >> In fact, it will be finished in just two more weeks…. Oh my, how many times have I heard this before 🙂 Not just during the C= liquidation but also from a friend of mine who programmed BlitzBlank. He also always said "Oh yeah, it will be…
Hi Mark, >> Man, I remember when it was a solid 4.0 DM per dollar. No fluctuation for at >> least 4 years. Nevermind when that was. Phew, that must have been before I was born (1970) 😉 Bye Alex
Hi Dege, >> The "remember when the mark was higher" war has begun . I was in >> Germany in 1985 (still here). Mark rate 3.41 to the dollar. Someone want >> to top that bid! You mean "remember when the dollar was higher"? Bye Alex
Hi Bart, >> I made an accounting package for the Amiga (Belgian flavour). That is why I did not know any of your programs 🙂 >> For now, I am finishing a tax calculation package. Nice… Bye Alex
Hi Jay, >> Those arent typewriters theyre A5000'S. WOW! I should have looked closer. And they were selling for 299,- DM ;)) Bye Alex
Hi Bart, >> you have a fax number and a contact person? I maybe doing that as well. >> *IF* they think about this seriously, I will develop new products for the >> Amiga commercially. I sent my fax to the following number: 06252 709442 in Germany of course :)…
Hi Rafael, >> Well, that's clever. C= began in the '50s (I think) as a typewriter >> manufacturer! well, there you go 🙂 Bye Alex
MagicWB
Message #165216
Hi Brian, [I agree with your number, although we're in deep "guessing-territory" here 😉 ] >> half-life. More at the beginning and tapering off. That is still $1,000 >> to $2,000 per month over that same period. Not bad indeed. The first few Well, that would be without taxes I…
Hi Martin, well, this SASG policy is under very heavy discussion at the moment in the german shareware scene, because many people think that this isn't shareware any more, but just disguised commercial software. Especially the author of MagicWB is criticised, because he started to send the programs back with…
Well, there seems to be a problem with the post office in the home town of Martin Hottenloher. People are suspecting that one of the employees there is stealing the registrations ! Nothing is proven yet, but investigations are running. The only way to be sure that your registration reached…

Hi David, Thanks for the info. I recently saw a message in the FIDO-Net concerning an update (V 2.2.0) that should remove this shortcoming of ADPRO. Bye Alex
