I have uploaded one other map, Island of Imperialism, to the archive, but this is probably the better of the two. I made some other maps, but I didn't think them worth uploading to the archive. I actually made the map a few years ago, but don't seem to have uploaded it, so I am doing so now.

The map consists of four islands. The two larger islands in the northwest and east are reasonably forested, while the central and southwestern islands have no trees at all, making it necessary to import trees from the larger two islands. The northwest island is the largest and probably the most valuable island of the four.

It has lots of forest, which makes many of the bases open to sneak attacks. It has several bases and pills scattered throughout it, but the best spot is in the northwest corner, where there are four bases and four pills. However, this little fortress is surrounded by a river and plenty of swampland, which will make it a little difficult to overtake. However, once you own this base, you will find it quite defendable. The eastern island is rather large but consists of mostly forest, although there are a few bases and pills. There's a nice little island in the center of the map that contains two bases.

It is fairly open to invasion because its location in the center of the map makes it rather accessible, and may be on the front lines. However, it's defended by shallow water, which causes spiking to take a little extra effort if you put some pills on it. By the time your enemy gets onto the island, (s)he will be well within the range of your pills. The southwest island is really just a large maze with several bases and pills.

It could be a nice fortress, but it doesn't have any trees, so you need to import them from somewhere else in order to build defenses. I usually leave this island alone until I am able to make myself established on the northwestern or eastern islands, but you may find it useful. Island of Imperialism Island of Imperialism is my first really playable map. I made one other, 4 Isles of Doom, which is probably better than this one. However, I still think that this one is okay. I made lots of other maps as well, but most were not worth uploading here, so only these two will be uploaded.

I actually made this map a few years ago, but it seems I never uploaded it to the archive, so I will do so now. The idea for the island was partially inspired by Everard Island and partially by Boulley's Bolo Maps, which I liked and which can probably still be found on the info-mac archive. The island's shape is pretty generic, about the size of Everard but more rounded. The map is rather heavily forested, especially in the southeastern parts of the map. There is one really good base area in the southeastern corner of the map that contains four bases and four pills, as well as a few more pills not far away. You will probably want to try taking this base.

If you take it, it makes an excellent refuelling spot, but it is a bit difficult to take out and the forests around it make it a bit prone to sneak attacks. There's also a reasonably good base on a small island just north center of the map that has two bases and four pills; being surrounded on three sides by water and separated from the main island on the southern side by a small channel, it is harder to attack, if a bit out of the way.

If you can get this base, it should be easier to defend than the other bases. However, there aren't really many trees near it, which can be a problem when fixing pills and building defenses. However, this means it's also harder for enemies to sneak up on the base through the forest.

I am not an employee of Virgin Games nor do they have any idea that I have created this patch. This application has not been tested extensively and may have bugs or cause problems with The 7th Guest. However, given that The 7th Guest already has serious problems with Power Macintoshes, and given that I havent experienced any problems myself while playing a patched version of the game on my Power Macintosh, I dont believe there is any serious risk with using this software. What it does This application fixes a Power Macintosh incompatibility with Virgin Games The 7th Guest.

This fixes a random crashing problem which occurs while playing the game on Power Macintosh computers (ie - PowerMac 6100, 7100, or 8100). This crash is caused by a bug in the part of the games code which controls the mouse/cursor in the game and that bug is fixed by this patch. How to use it You must have already installed The 7th Guest on your Macintosh before you can use this application to patch your game. This application can only patch the copy of The 7th Guest which is installed on your hard drive - it can not patch the copy on the CD-ROM (CD-ROMs cant be modified).

Before using this application, make sure that any virus protection software that you are running is turned off. This application modifies the code in your 7th Guest application and therefore could be mistaken for a virus by some detection software.

To patch your game, do the following: Open the patcher application (it is named 7th Guest PPC Patch ). You will see a standard open file dialog when the application starts up. Find your copy of T7GMac on your hard disk and select it. T7GMac is the application that you open when you want to play The 7th Guest.

If you have renamed this application, select the renamed copy. Click the Open button.

If you double-clicked T7GMac when you selected it, you wont need to do this step. Assuming that everything went OK, you should see an alert informing you that the patch was successful. If you ever re-install The 7th Guest, you will also need to re-apply this patch. Enjoy the game!

It exhibits a precarious balance between action and strategy; thinking and reflex. The feeling you get from playing Barrack is an eccentric harmony between the automatic, mind-numbing pleasure of Tetris and the kind of action found in Maelstrom.

Fire

The result is that you'll be left with sweat on your brow. Barrack's goal is deceptively simple; there are a number of balls on the play field that are bouncing like a neurotic on a sugar rush. Your job is to use your shooter to isolate them. Sounds easy, right?

First of all, if a ball breaks your shooter's particle beam before it tears through the play field, your shooter overloads and explodes in a cascade of fire and scrap metal. The second problem is that these aren't any ordinary balls. They have more personalities than Sybil, and none of them are particularly friendly.

We'll leave the particulars up to your imagination for now, but suffice it to say that these aren't the kind of balls you get from bubble gum machines. Oh, did we forget to mention the land shark? Bosco is a rare breed of shark capable of rearranging his molecular structure at will. This enables him to travel at quite a clip through otherwise solid substances. If you don't pay attention while he closes in on your shooter, you may end up being fish-bait.

He's tenacious, voracious, and about every other -acious you can think of, all rolled into one lean, mean, shooter-munchin' machine. Barrack features stunning artwork, intense action, vibrant 8-channel stereo sound effects, and the addictiveness that comes standard in an Ambrosia game.

The Amazing Bad Day Simulator 2001. Copyright (c) Practically Useless Software 1991, 2001 Features: - Sorrow - Woe - Bad Times New in BDS2001: - GOOD TIMES!!!! Ok, so what's it all about?

Don't you just hate it when you aim for a spotted fish, and all you get is a stripey one? (What do you mean, no?). It can really bring your whole day down.

Fortunately you can now endure all this heartache in a virtual format, leaving you free to enjoy your real life. History Bad Day Simulator was originally written for the Amiga (in AMOS) in 1991 by me, Vince Hodgson. It was soon ported to other popular formats such as 68k Macintosh (by Graham Cox) and Windows 3.1 (by Stephen Baxter), as well as ZX81, Spectrum and so on. Unfortunately these versions are lost to the world (unless Graham or Stephen can put me right on that one). In 1997 BDS found its spiritual home on the internet and lived there for 4 good years.

Now I've changed my ISP I feel it's about time I brought BDS back to the desktop, and here we are! Packed with new features (OK, packed with one new feature, you can now choose how bad you day is going to be) and ready to go, BDS2001 is the future of home despondency now. This is also my first attempt. at programming since that Amiga version all those years ago, so I'd love to hear any comments.

Then I'll start on other useless nonsense such as Washing Machine Emulator and the like. The way I look at it, all the useful software has been written and so I might as well write some useless software.This is not strictly true, if you count the times I've re-written BDS for the ZX81 & Spectrum (emulated), but seeing as it's only four lines of code, I don't think it counts System requirements Any Macintosh or Windows95+ computer., plenty of time to waste doing pointless things.Depending on which archive you have Contact me e-mail: vincent.hodgson@ntlworld.com BDS 2001 is mail-ware. If you like it (or hate it, or just use it, or just use it once) please send me an e-mail to the above.

Just so I can see where it gets to. File Name: (404 k) Date: Oct 23, 1998 From: mboxall@whitley.unimelb.edu.au Subject: Beached II 1.1 (Tropical Adventure/Strategy Game) Whilst travelling out on the open sea, your boat sinks.

You, and two others are washed onto a tropical island. The island is a paradise, with trees, bananas, coconuts, and vines. However, you suddenly remember the long range weather forecast.

A tornado will form in this area in about one week. You must work hard to build a raft to get off the island, but also make sure you keep alive by eating, drinking and sleeping. The other survivors must build their own rafts too. You must decide if and when you help them, or if you line your own pockets with gold. This is, of course, the sequel to Beached. The object of the game is still the same, but there have been major changes made to the gameplay. There are now other survivors on the island controlled by the computer.

The sequel also has much better graphics, and some important improvements to the interface. Requires: System 7.0 or later 68020 or later or PPC 256 colours/greys Version 1.1 has an added 'Auto-Help' feature, making it easier for new players to understand the game. Also, clicking on your own player will now bring up a popup menu, allowing an easier method to select menu items.

The aliens are back!! Mankind has been virtually wiped out by an extraterrestrial armada! This shoot'em up game play puts you in the seat of the XJ-777, code-named 'Annihilator'. Only you can help save the solar system from ruthless alien domination. Bedlam 2 is a fast action, arcade-style game with forty-five levels of blistering game play. As you blast away at the invading forces, your ship moves along the bottom of the screen trying to avoid a barrage of enemy firepower, collisions with attacking ships and the occasional chunk of floating space debris. By racking up points along the way, you earn much-needed extra ships, and can even capture hunks of gold bars released when you've demolished the ships of some of the greedy trespassers.

Other fun and nasty surprises materialize during your long mission to free our galaxy from this evil infestation. Your first encounter with the alien aggressors begins near the outer-reaches of the solar system at the ninth planet, Pluto.

If successful, you move inwards to Neptune and each planet thereafter, until you've kicked all alien butt completely out of our galaxy! Some of the cool sound effects in the game help you keep track of your weapon status and any helpful or dangerous objects that approach your territory. These include special weapon 'containers' that are periodically released for you to try and shoot open to free and then capture the extra-powerful ammo you need to pulverize your attackers. There is detailed and interesting information about each planet as you arrive at its defense, which helps illuminate our section of the universe for those who have a hard time keeping track of just how many planets are orbiting the sun.:-) Will you choose to accept this mission? Mankind is depending on you! Bedlam 2's minimum system requirements are: - Mac OS 7 (but higher versions recommended) - QuickTime (for the background music) - 640x480 monitor supporting 256 colors - 7 MB RAM - 7.3 MB hard drive space More information about Bedlam 2 is available at our web site.

Bert is similar, though with no ambition of being identical. The hero is, as the subtitle suggests, a swedish (ex-)politician. Think of him as Dan Quayle. Some pre-releases of Bert have been circulating since autumn -94. In the final 1.0 version, some graphics were revised (thanks to Mikael Pawlo) and some minor bugs have been fixed. In version 1.1, he most noticeable change is that Bert is invulnerable until he makes his first move after starting a level or taking a ride with a spinning disk.

Contact: Matthew Beedle @ MattBeedle@aol.com President of Foxchange Shareware @ Foxchange Shareware announces BetterPlayer 1.0, the alternate QuickTime Player February 1, 2000, Battle Mountain, NV - Foxchange Shareware announces the release of BetterPlayer 1.0. BetterPlayer is a freeware open source utility that plays QuickTime movies without the clunky UN-Mac like interface that was introduced into QuickTime Player and Sherlock 2. BetterPlayer plays QuickTime movies that are either dropped onto the application or opened within. Once a QT movie has been opened, users can change the file type and creator so that the file will open with BetterPlayer by default. Other useful options that have been added are automatically play and loop options that can be applied to every file individually.

This is especially cool for those that have a favorite MIDI file they like to listen too, just double click and the file will start to open. To make life easier, these settings can become default settings as well as the option to automatically change the file type and creator to that of BetterPlayer. Just as important as applying these settings, they can also be removed restoring the file to it's natural state. Since the only thing that BetterPlayer adds is a STR# to the resource fork, no data can be damaged by the application.

Foxchange Shareware has released BetterPlayer as open source software so that other programmers can extend the application's functionality. Several things are planned for future releases, the ability to add a resource fork to a file that doesn't have one so BetterPlayer can work with it, sizing options, remembering window positions as well as basic editing features. BetterPlayer is the foundation for another unnamed application that Foxchange Shareware may be developing in the possible future. Currently BetterPlayer 1.0 is available for download at ftp://ftp.foxchange.com The latest version of BetterPlayer can be found at As well as the goal of producing high quality games for the Mac market, Foxchange Shareware is also going to be introducing utilities into the Mac market.
