STATISTICS
This issue is late and its damned fat. I guess this always happens if you wait
for release too long. Some parts are also only sketched or to be completeted in
the next issue, which should be released shortly after outline. As you can see
STS has left Alive, and it's quite hard to fill the gap, especially since some
other guys stopped supporting Alive. Finally I found out how to put this
magazine together and downloaded all nessesary tools from the internet. Perhaps
I should write a doc on it :)
However, I'm happy we manage to bring you Alive 9 or Alive meets UCM :) Let's
look at some facts and figures about this issue :
FIGURES :
Intro : Not finished yet but will be approximately half a disk or more.
Musics : 6 files amounting to 91,1 Kb unpacked and 9,73 Kb packed
Articles : 99 textfiles atm counting for 836 Kb now packed to 443 Kb
Piccies : 47 piccies 1,43 Mb before and only 639 Kb now
Whole issue (including the shell not taken into account above) then weighs :
> Unpacked 3,42 Mb
> Packed 1,06 Mb :)
FACTS :
The mag is much to big for standard ST users, it simply will not fit on a single
disk unless its a HD one. So you better put it on your HDD, if there will be
enough people demanding it, we can also offer split versions with only half of
the articles. Another downer is the fact that the module 505 supplied is not
working with the shell yet. Also it seem we still have serious trouble with
music selection on the Falcon while the ST Version is fine. Due to all this
issues we have decided to spare the mod for easter and release a ST only version
now. Falcon user will have to switch to ST-low before starting the mag.
Anyway this issue is released now. We will hopefully fix the shell soon, but
don't count on it :) So use either the ST version or the web-issue. Enjoy...
