Looking for "Amiga Magazin" Sonderheft disks (or even ADFs)

[thyslo]

Hi, I'm looking for the two disks of German Amiga Magazine, issue Sonderheft 7: Spieleprogrammierung from 1989.

Here's the Kultboy page for this issue: https://www.kultboy.com/index.php?site=kult/kultmags&km=show&id=2594

At the time the "coverdisks" were not PD and had to be purchased separately.

Does anybody have them in their collection and want to sell or maybe would make an ADF of them to share?

I assume you've already had a good search for these but not found them.

It seems you're interested in learning how to program Amiga games in 68000 Assembler, or in C. Here's a link to a book in PDF format, written by Jorgo Schimanski, which also has two accompanying ADF files! I hope this helps you.

You could also try searching to see if there's a book, also by the publisher Markt&Technik, which may be a compilation containing these articles plus some other articles, which actually has accompanying disk(s) available as ADF files.

Here's ANOTHER book, written by Niki Laber which has one ADF file with it!

I've just been reading some of this magazine "Amiga Magazin Sonderheft 7". I think it's an amazing explanation of how to write Amiga games in both in C, Assembly Language, and even AmigaBASIC! It even contains an article explaining the differences in syntax between Aztec Manx C and Lattice C! At least one listing is given for the Assembler Data-Becker-Profimat. Their books and software were republished in English by Abacus. It says that conversion for other Assemblers should be relatively easy, but I don't know what this would involve. Most of the listing looks like standard Amiga Assembler syntax. One line reads "Callsys:Macro $\1", while another says "Linksys:Macro $\1,$\2", though. I don't remember seeing anything quite like this in listings for other Assemblers.

While reading it, I've noticed that it contains a lot of long type in listings in C, but these are usually broken up into modules. The front cover says that all programs are ALSO available on disk. This means that without the disk you can still type them in. The whole point of this issue is to learn how to program games on the Amiga in C and Assembly Language. The data hasn't been lost without the disk or ADF file, it's still available to type in. Obviously, to write your own games in any language, you'd also have to do a lot of typing.

I'm trying to get to grips with programming in C on the classic Amiga. I've recently installed both Aztec C and SAS C (formerly Lattice C) on my Amiga A1200. I think I'm going to type in at least some of these C programs on my Amiga A1200. Does anyone else want to try doing this?
