Die Batman Group hat wieder was 'raugehauen! Leider nicht Vespertino für den CPC; dafür eine Demo für den Amiga 500:



Wer den Amiga emuliert, sollte folgendes beachten:

IMPORTANT! This demo uses special video modes. If possible, watch it on the real hardware and CRT monitor for a full experience.
However, to watch it properly in WinUAE:
1. In Windows, advanced display settings, select a refresh rate of 50Hz (if not available some demo parts will not be displayed correctly).
2. In the emulator, select a standard A500 OCS configuration with 1MB of RAM, 2 floppy drives enabled and Standard VSync in display settings, then insert the disk 1 adf file in df0 and the disk 2 adf in df1.

Genau! Sollen sich die Leute endlich mal 50Hz fähige Monitore besorgen!

Ostern fand wieder die Revision in Saarbrücken statt. Hier mal der erste Platz von der Amiga-Sparte (OCS übrigens):

Tatsächlich hatte meine letzte Lebensabschnittsgefährtin ein Faible für Animationsserien, während ich damit weniger anfangen konnte. Allerdings habe ich über sie dann zwei Serien kennengelernt, die mir doch ganz gut gefielen. Zum einen war das Hey Arnold! - zum anderen die Powerpuff Girls. Kann ich als Zeichentrickmuffel wärmstens weiterempfehlen.
