ANNOUNCEMENT: new game programming ftp-place
Jouni Miettunen
This is going to be short, I'll have hurry back home to see how
Finland will (again) beat USA in ice hockey in Italy:
I have the great pleasure to officially announce the new (pc) game
programming orientated ftp-place teeri.oulu.fi. It's currently an old
sun3, has max 20 user limit, is located in Finland (Europe) and has
about 40M more or less game programming orientated material online +
lots more to come.
teeri.oulu.fi:/pub/msdos/programming
(uploads to teeri.oulu.fi:/incoming with a .txt file, please)
There are graphics libs, sound libs, hardware tech specs, file format
specs, drawing utils, music composing utils, sample game source, some
carefully selected FAQs, file format converters, all 3 known Game
Programmers Magazines, is the official home && dist site for Game
Programmers Encyclopedia (as soon as it's released) etc. etc.
Well, that's about it. I'll include 00index.all at the end. Hope
someone will find this useful..
