Amiga Magazine E Pubblicato Con La Carti- Na Dell'ltalia Grazie a Un Accordo Con L'autore UN POWER PC NEL FUTURO DI AMIGA Alla raffica di annunci del mese scorso, ha fatto seguito, come prevedibile, un periodo di pausa e di riflessione, durante il quale si sono intensificati i contatti e le consultazioni fra tutte le parti in causa, in attesa che I'acquisizione ufficiale di AT da parte d, Viccorp si concluda, come previsto, entro il 3 1 luglio. Potrete leggere tutti i particolari nel dossier di questo numero. In questo momento, sopiti i toni accesi delle prime prese di posizione, lo scenario più plausibile sul futuro di Amiga contempla ovviamente una Viscorp in posizione dominante, che oltre a occuparsi direttamente dello sviluppo dell'Amiga set-top-box, coor. dina il porting su PowerPC. PIOS, con Haynie e Finkel, dovrebbe collaborare strettamente con Viscorp per gestire tale portin~ dell'OS Amiga e arrivare a produrre una macchina standard PowerPC a basso costo. Viscorp ha già formato un Architettura, Design Group che si occupa dello sviluppo dell'intera architettura Amiga. Phase 5, da parte sua, sembra destinata a gestire le prime fasi di tale transizione con schede Power PC per gli Amiga esi- stenti e arrivare a proporre un Amiga Power PC high-end con hardware custom destinato principalmente al mercato europeo. Questo a patto che riesca a trovare un accordo con Viscorp, la quale ha tutte le intenzioni di difendere anche nelle sedi lega- li la proprietà intellettuale di Amiga che, come sappiamo, ha acquistato a caro prezzo, sebbene preveda la possibilità di licen- ziarla a terzi. P-os di ProDad sembra in una posizione maggiormente defilata: se ne può prevedere l'uso su una macchina come il Draco d, MacroSystem, sul quale sono appunto apparse le prime versioni preliminari. E chiaro che Motorola giocherà in tutto questo un ruolo fondamentale, almeno per quanto riguarda la ricerca: la società ha estremo bisogno di un sistema operativo da offrire assieme ai suoi Power PC al mercato di massa. La differenza di visuale fra PIOS e Phase 5 riguarda soprattutto un punto; Phase 5 crede nella necessità di continuare sulla tipica strada di Amiga: hardware dedicato prodotto "in casa" per raggiungere la massima integrazione fra i vari sottosistem, hardware (//O, audio, video). PIOS crede invece nell'uso di un computer standard definito da Motorola, IBM e Macintosh (i, cosiddetto CHRP o PPCP) per far girare AmigaOS. Il primo è sicuramente più vicino alla filosofia Amiga, il secondo alle attua- li leggi del mercato. Dave Haynie, ultimamente, ha dimostrato in una serie di interventi pubblici e privati su Internet, di essere profondamente coin- volto nel progetto e di avere, fra l'altro, le idee molto chiare: è perfettamente consapevole, come Phase 5 d'altra parte, degl, errori fatti in passato e non ha intenzione di ripeterli La formula risultante è fin troppo owia: Amiga deve avere hardware poten. te senza costare più di un Pentium e deve essere in grado di soddisfare tutte le esigenze elementari di un utente di computer, senza escludere quelle ludiche. Per ottenere tutto questo, Haynie prevede la presenza di componenti dedicati a11'1/0 (ISDN, modem, audio) e al video ai mas- simi livelli (alte risoluzioni, motori 3D), usando esclu- sivamente componenti "standard", non espressa- mente creati per Amiga, ma già immessi sul mercato da produttori specializzati di chip. Questi chip esisto- no, costano poco e per integrarli al sistema non è necessario investire grandi capitali nella ricerca; il sistema operativo di Amiga, con la sua architettura aperta, offre a sua volta grandi opportunità in questa direzione. Su tutto, prevale l'impressione che il prossimo Amiga girerà su Power PC e potrà essere il risultato dello sforzo non di un'unica società, ma di una sorta di "consorzio", reale o virtuale, che comprenderà a tito- lo diverso Viscorp, PIOS e Motorola e forse anche Phase 5, ProDad e MacroSystem. Per finire, Carl Sassenrath (Viscorp) da Tolosa ha voluto consegnarci un messaggio autografo dedicato a tutti gli utenti italiani, che volentieri giriamo ai desti- natari: "A tutti i miei amici in Italia. Vi ringrazio di cre- dere ad Amiga. Il futuro è sereno: ((Grandicose stan- no per accadere.. Per quanto riguarda la rivista, non dimenticate di dare un'occhiata al demo di AmiAtlas Pro 2.0 che compare sul dischetto: il programma, che serve a calcolare itinerari automobilistici, è stato tradotto in italiano da Amiga Magazine e pubblicato con la carti- na dell'ltalia grazie a un accordo con l'autore. Nell'articolo dedicato a tale prodotto troverete anche un'interessante offerta di registrazione.

    SCHEDA NEW PLATINUM PI4 EDITION La seguente lista elenca la maggior parte dei titoli emulati dalla scheda NEW PLATINUM Pi4 (20.000). - I giochi per computer (Amiga, Commodore, Pc, etc) richiedono una tastiera per computer e talvolta un mouse USB da collegare alla console (in quanto tali sistemi funzionavano con mouse e tastiera). - I giochi che richiedono spinner (es. Arkanoid), volanti (giochi di corse), pistole (es. Duck Hunt) potrebbero non essere controllabili con joystick, ma richiedono periferiche ad hoc, al momento non configurabili. - I giochi che richiedono controller analogici (Playstation, Nintendo 64, etc etc) potrebbero non essere controllabili con plance a levetta singola, ma richiedono, appunto, un joypad con analogici (venduto separatamente). - Questo elenco è relativo alla scheda NEW PLATINUM EDITION basata su Raspberry Pi4. - Gli emulatori di sistemi 3D (Playstation, Nintendo64, Dreamcast) e PC (Amiga, Commodore) sono presenti SOLO nella NEW PLATINUM Pi4 e non sulle versioni Pi3 Plus e Gold. - Gli emulatori Atomiswave, Sega Naomi (Virtua Tennis, Virtua Striker, etc.) sono presenti SOLO nelle schede Pi4. - La versione PLUS Pi3B+ emula solo 550 titoli ARCADE, generati casualmente al momento dell'acquisto e non modificabile.

System Requirements Installation Controls Game Modes Game Details Fighter Ships Weapons and Equipment Hints and Tips Credits Contact Bitwise Contact Alive Mediasoft (C)1999 Bitwise / Alive Mediasoft Ltd. WHAT IS PHOENIX FIGHTERS? Phoenix Fighters is a "gravity" game in the style of the classics like Gravity Force and Thrust. There have many games in this genre in the past and we have played them all - we feel that we have taken the best bits of them all and compiled them in one great game! You are one of the elite Phoenix Fighters pilots and are required to do all kinds of dangerous missions; Destroy enemies, make investigations, navigate narrow passes, prove your ship handling skills, carry reactors... You will receive rewards from completed missions which can used to buy new ships or update your old ones. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS An Amiga computer with minimum of 1MB RAM and KS1.3. PAL display mode. Supports hard disk and takes advantage of extra RAM and faster processors. INSTALLATION The installation of Phoenix Fighters is done using the standard installer utility. Double click the install icon on the CD/disk1 and follow the instructions. If dos.library v36 or greater is present there is no need of any assigns. For earlier ROM's an assign will be needed if the game is started from workbench icon or if it's started in a shell from a directory other than the directory containing the files (like "pf/phoenixfighters"). As assigns, both "PhoenixFighters:" and "PF:" will be searched.
