Stolen Data #01

well here we are with the first issue of stolen data     a little late but well worth the wait     well this disk will be winging its way to nosah for distribution on monday so you should all be in possesion of your mags before the 16-bit show     I should be there on sunday (propping up the bar no doubt) so i hope to meet a lot of new faces there. credits for this part are as follows     absolutely everything by me (kreator), sorry for the lack of music but i had a few problems getting this menu to work with the seven sins demo (lack of memory i think), despite the fact that i was relinquising all memory before starting the load. this will be rectified by next time     this first issue of the disk mag is a little empty (although i still managed to fill the disk) but things should improve once we establish ourselves.     my coding section this month covers bobs   a very simple topic i know, but its suprising the number of people i've had asking me how to move bobs about the screen, so you will find the source on this disk for a number of bob routines ranging from the very simple to my 196 bob routine. next month i will probably cover 3d graphics routines including vectors, (a simple form of) hidden-line removal and vector bobs.     i am always on the lookout for new, cool contacts, if you want to write to me then you'll find my address in the text above.     i'll be back at university in a few days, back to the life of drunkeness and debauchery (wishful thinking!!) so i hope all my contacts take note of this. i hope the house is still habitable, we had an end of term party cum drinking session before i left, after about ten pints it was getting on for one a'clock in the morning and we still had a full bottle of whisky to finish, by this time there was only the two of us left so we drank it between us. i dont remember going to bed (or puking my guts in the toilet, which i've since been reliably informed i woke up the student next door to the bathroom with my noisy vomming) but i do remember my mother coming to pick me up at eleven in the morning, with the place in an absolute mess, curry stains all over the kitchen and a stack of beer cans and bottles littered about the place, and me still recovering in bed. worse still we had a five hour car journey to get home. nevertheless it still wasn't as bad as the time i locked myself out of my room after a party, i was so drunk i lost about two hours of my life, the last moment i can remember was at about midnight, the next thing i knew i was stood outside my door without a key. it turns out i had gone back to my room for some reason, puked on the floor dropping my keys at the same time then walked back out without the keys. and people say we students are a bunch of dossers.     well i must dash now, things to do etc...   so until the next issue of stolen data (or the forthcoming anarchy megademo whichever is the sooner)     see ya !!!

The STOLEN DATA Crackers Charts presented to you by Kreator of ANARCHY UK (use cursor keys to control this proportional scroller), the chart layout is as follows: Position of the group - Group name - Number of votes received     next issue (due out in approx. 6 weeks) will also contain Best Demos chart (and the demo need not be very new, so that really good demos have a chance of staying in the charts for a long time) these have nothing to do with the best three demos of the past six weeks that will also feature in the mag, as these are judged by FRAP of MAGNETIC FIELDS, also we will probably run a best Trainers chart, and maybe one for Musicians and Graphics Artists.     For more details see the paper mag (if you haven't got a copy of the mag then see the menu for details on obtaining a copy).     Now for the credits for this screen   All coding by Myself (KREATOR)    the charts compiled by  NOSAH of DCS (the editor of the STOLEN DATA paper magazine)    This proportional font (with some editing by me) and the original font from which 'The Charts' logo was derived by THE DARK LORD     and the music was ripped from the SPREADPOINT Vectorballs scroller demo (in future we will have our own original music)     It's no real suprise to see QUARTEX up at the top, and this should be the last time we see The BAND in the charts, but if you want to see your favourite group at the top then send in your votes now !!     I don't have much time for writing scrolltexts (maybe I can persuade some of my fellow members to write something for the next issue) so I'll leave it there,    see you all at the 16-bit show, don't forget to order the next issue from NOSAH!!!
