I've actually used AC Fortran in 4 flavours. Amiga, Mac, MS Windows and Linux, the Mac version is especially good.  The Amiga version of Absoft AC Fortran is like the Amiga version of Lightwave, usable, but missing a whole lot of good stuff....


Do you mean that the Amiga version of Lightwave is missing a whole lot of stuff compared to the equivalent Windows/Mac version (version 5.0 being the lastest common one to all platforms).  Or did you mean the Amiga is missing a lot of stuff compared to the *very* latest version ever released (which I think is 9.x)?

I'll agree with you on the latter, but as for version 5.0, from what I've seen, it was pretty much the same across all platforms it was made for.

Do you know of, or believe you know of, Amiga software titles that have been lost forever -- no longer existing in any working form on this planet?  I'm becoming convinced that Absoft AC Fortran is such a title.  No doubt, there are a number of others?   (I have been looking for a copy of AC Fortran for years, BTW.)


Dynamic Drums was kinda cool back in 1989. Never seen it again.

Of course there were a few mods that I liked alot that I never found again too.

@ motorollin:
Actually you can find an Amiga Power Magazine demo version here:

http://agtw.abime.net/games/view/puttysquad

Yes, I know is a little satisfaction but....
Read the interview, really interesting.


Thanks for the link, but I've already got the demo. I have also played through the SNES version of the game. It's awesome, but I would love to have seen it on the Amiga.

I could swear that I just saw Dynamic Drums as part of an Amiga system auction a couple of days ago on eBay????
