Passione Amiga Day 2022 |
| Events posted by Mod3mski on 3-May-2022 7:36:27 (1162 reads) |
Passione Amiga day is the meeting day for Amiga users in Italy organized by Passione Amiga, the printed magazine for Amiga enthusiasts and lovers in Italian language with commercial exhibitors, conferences with Italian and international guests and a flea market.
The location, in the historic center of the city of Spoleto, is the ideal place to spend a weekend in contact with history, culture and food and wine; Spoleto has been able to combine modernity with its past that can still be breathed in the streets, squares and which makes it a unique city in the world. Because of its charm, a “Don Matteo” was chosen as the location for the IX and X series of the RAI fiction.
After the success of the first edition, the Passion Amiga day 2022 will take place on September 18, 2022 with free admission.

APC&TCP has now been active for 30 years |
| News posted by AndreasM on 1-May-2022 12:23:07 (1632 reads) |
The APC&TCP computer club was founded more than 30 years ago, do any of you know exactly when?
As one of the largest Amiga clubs worldwide, the question of how to better support all the programmers in the club came up relatively quickly. As our members produced some really good programs and games, but they all voiced their opinion that they weren't very happy with the commercial contracts that were offered by major publisher. After long deliberations, APC&TCP sales was founded in May 1992.
The main task of sales was to market the club members' software as effectively as possible.
The first software titles released through APC&TCP were; Databench and 1990. Other titles such as Kargon, Jaktar, Flyin High, Pinball Brain Damage, and many others, followed on relatively quickly by even more. More recently, APC&TCP has released software titles for the Amiga such as Roadshow, CygnusED, RESHOOT R, Tiny little Slug, Trap Runner, and there are other products that are already in their 'starting blocks'.
Some time ago a shareware series was released, which comprised of a few dozen shareware titles that were marketed here by club members. Incidentally, APC&TCP blossomed relatively quickly into one of the cheapest PD diskette dealers in Germany.
Initially there were also a number of third-party products in the range, which were mainly sold to club members. Though relatively quickly after that our range of goods reverted to being only our own products that were offered, apart from a few exceptions. One of those exceptions, by way of example, is the LOAD from VzEkC e.V. Issue 8, which will soon be available in the APC&TCP online shop.
For many years, the NoCover floppy disk club magazine was also distributed through APC&TCP. Incidentally APC&TCP has been publishing the print magazine Amiga Future for over 20 years, and what's more, the Amiga Future will be reaching its 25th anniversary in January. Yes, the Amiga Future magazine is still being printed. :)
Over the years, in addition to the many software titles released through APC&TCP, there has also been a whole range of merchandise produced by APC&TCP: such as, posters, mouse pads, mugs, stickers and much, much more.
APC&TCP also took over the distribution of the Amiga Joker magazine, issues 17 and 19.
Recently the VD Aktuell has also become available through APC&TCP.
Over the years APC&TCP has remained very active, in many areas, though generally that is in the background, without Amiga users really being aware of their involvement. For example, APC&TCP took over the advance ticket sales for the Amiga trade fairs from ICP. So, it was a natural step for APC&TCP to present the Amiga at Gamescom in a show area of approx. 100 square metres.
APC&TCP will be there, yet again, at the Amiga 37 in the autumn of 2022 and is also assisting the organisers to make the venture a success, as usual, in the background.
Over the last 30 years, APC&TCP has released over 200 products for the Amiga, and there are also 125 NoCover issues. Additionally approx. 140 German and 80 English Amiga Future magazine issues have been printed during that time.
After 30 years, APC&TCP actually seems to be one of the largest software publishers for the Amiga with a current 6-digit annual turnover. From which no-one has become super-wealthy here, it's just that the Amiga is simply great fun to use. :)
Our main goal, currently, is to reach our 50th year anniversary, which would be something to really celebrate. In addition, we are always searching for entertaining games and applications, and where its programmer is also looking for a fair and reliable publisher. One of the great advantages of APC&TCP is that a programmer can have their say as to any choice of packaging, which is also one of the reasons why APC&TCP does not have any standardised or similar packaging from one product to another.
If you are one of those gifted, and interested programmers, then please send an email to: Andreas@apc-tcp.de

Hi,
I'm writing on behalf of Matt Woodroof who made a game for the Amiga back in 1994 called Willy's Humungous Adventure, but has lost the source code as well as a copy of the game itself and wants to recover it.
He sold two versions (with and without the source code) back in 1994 directly and a few users purchased them so there's a slim chance someone might still have a working floppy.
If anyone has a copy and could make an ADF or DMS of it please send me a PM and I'll get it to Matt!

The Amiga Future magazine - Issue 156 preview is now available to view online |
| News posted by AndreasM on 19-Apr-2022 11:36:51 (793 reads) |
This is the full colour preview and excerpts of the Amiga Future magazine, issue 156 (May/June 2022) that can now be viewed online on the Amiga Future website.
ATTENTION: We will try to send the issue in the first week of January again this year. I.e. the booklets are published over the turn of the year
already packed. So please order the issue as early as possible or remember to pay your subscription bills.
Some of the interesting articles in this issue are:
Review ignition
Review Unithor Joystick
Special Demoscene
Of course there's so MUCH more actually in the magazine.
Needless to say you often get other versions of software, often what was commercially available, as well as some of the latest try-outs or freely released software applications and games for, hopefully, all of the Amiga type Operating systems, so that's Amiga 'Classic', OS4, MorphOS, and AROS, including some PD software for these systems, all on the Reader's cover CD.
A detailed description of this issues contents and excerpts can be found at: https://www.amigafuture.de/app.php/kb/index?c=13
The Amiga Future magazine is available as an English and German printed magazine - every issue is available in FULL COLOUR - directly available from the magazine editorial office and also from various other Amiga dealers.
Caution!
We ask all Amiga Future subscribers to check whether we have the current postal address and email address of you.
The Amiga Future will be packed and shipped a few days before the release date. We therefore need a change of address as soon as possible.
Important: Requests for forwarding normally do not work with magazines!
We also ask you to check whether any subscription bills have already been paid. Unfortunately, many subscription bills are currently still unpaid.
