[bfrnhout]

Great news,
My brother just discovered the remake of millenium 2.2. So I know he will be interested in this, .

[bfrnhout]

Finaly its working the creating of stuff. It was a pain in the ass to get it right. The timing was completly off. But i got it a little bit right now. Making the graphics ok and the language file working and then the new part is ready for testing again. Somewhere round friday it wil come online i think. Then i go work on the shuttle bay. When that is done the save wil come. The devision of the stuff is almost complete now there has not to be changed now anymore. (I think) so the save can be done.

N.B. Keep in mind that if the new part is more complex then this one. I must rewrite the whole code. Make a big change in it. To work better. For now i went on with this cause i started it this way but i seen some misstakes in my thinking. I hope it go ok. Otherwise i am back at the start. We will see what is coming up.

Keep a eye for friday

[FOL]

Thanks for the update.

Take your time, we can wait.
Hope you get better soon.

Awesome work on latest version. Research seems to be working perfect, allocation of teams (production and research) seems perfect to.
Training looks good too, look forward to the next release.

Get Well Soon!

I hope you are not in too much pain from your surgery and treatment.

I just downloaded your remake file and will try it maybe tomorrow if my restore complete PC goes well. I could try it on my G4 PowerBook running Windows XP Pro through VirtualPC, but that might not work too well, as it can be slow.

I found this thread because I have been searching for a place to purchase a complete "In-The-Box" Amiga version of Deuteros, with floppy disks, manual and any other original documentation that was included, to buy from someone.

If anyone out there has a NTSC Amiga version of Deuteros that is complete and in the original box that they would consider selling to me, please send me an email, or PMail (email preferred @earthlink.net). I am willing to pay a fair price for it.

It is good to see someone doing a remake of it. I corresponded with one of the two guys who did the remake of Millenium2.2 as part of a game competition and tried to get them to release the source code, so I, or someone with more programming skills, could port it back to the Amiga and the NG Amiga systems, but they backed out after initially saying that they would give me the code. He was still a bit upset that the judging of the game competition snubbed him and his partner because they accused them of cheating and starting the work on the game before the competition began, or some other nonsense. It was clearly the best game produced from that competition by such a wide margin that it was an insult to them to have any of the other games win the award over their efforts on the remake of Millenium2.2.

Again, I hope you get well soon and I am glad that you at least have Internet accessibility while you are in the Hospital. I wonder if I will be so lucky later this year when I have my second surgery?

[FOL]

The Millenium2.2 remake was awesome. They even improved a few things, .

He is back. Back home today. Was almost dead. But luck was with me. Ik was 5 years ago in Korea realy in the middle of the jungle and had a bactery catching me. I did not know that then. And did not know it this time to. But a docter from Belgium reconise the simptones i did got. Slowly my body was giving up on me. Every week somthing was stop working. And had it two time my hart was stopped. At first we thout it was a simple thing removing a priece of my internal and i good go on. But it didnt.
When i was tested for that bug it was positive. This gave me a change to fight back. A long and stong antibiotic did cure me. I am now home and can eat everthing only my stamina is not still there. But now i have a long way to come back.

I did studiy a new type of program language. Witch have a close connection to C and C++ but stil maintaining the connection with Basic. I have to start over again. And on a way its good. In the previous version there where some misstakes. Witch i hade to work around. And now i have to redo it all. so i know the first misstakes and wont make them again. Within a couple of day the first part wil be released.
Talk you soon.

EDIT:- Looking good. Everything looks ok and working like it should.

Hey. Here a note from my side again. I was lucky this week. I am working on Deuteros and in the afthernoon my dogther did used the computer. Just before i was starting to program on deuteros again, my doghter say to me that she had to install a program cause the computer said it must otherwise everything would shutting down.

I did look in my computer and it turns out that she did shut down the anti virus program so she could install it. I had a gigantic virus on my computer and had infecte about 70% of all the system data. No source files or text file, even music and sound are oke.

The big luck i had is that all kind of program data is stored on a saparat disk. It was not in the computer at that moment.

I had to format and reinstall windows again the last two days. And now i am up and running. The program is almost on the point where i leave the previous version. There are now more sound in. End the next step is making the research team ready.

Let you know how far it al stands.

N.B. I saw that my work is going on the net. On some places i see links to my site. Nice work to you all. i like it....

[bfrnhout]

Hello again. I need help for sound. I do not have all the sound part of the game. Is there anybody who can help mee getting that. Of give me a hint witch program can do the capturing of a screen playing. So i can catch the sound myself. I have a mp3 editor I can convert AVI to MP3 so i can grab the part i need.

But i do not have any program to grab the screen and turned it to a video with sound.

[bfrnhout]

I have uploaded a new part of the program. Its still not on the step the previous one was, but i think its stable and working ok. Sound and graphics are compressed so the download is faster. I wil hear if there are mistakes and/or missing some things.

[Neil79]

Please keep on updating it as i'd like to keep updating it on our database and twitter site


btw...

Load exe... play

[bfrnhout]

Thanks for the reply. I did halted a few weeks because i had some work to do and this one was in the way with my work. But now i have dayle a couple of hourse to work on it again. I try to make a new update as soon as possible.
Now working on the production part on earth side. When this is done i wil do the shuttle. by then i think i have gather enough data to make a real good save file. then the save wil be done.
But fisrt the production.

[bfrnhout]

Stil no update but i am still working on it. A lot of tiny things i have to do in the program to make it work on the correct way, And a long way of testing every time i do somthing new in the program to make it work. And every time checking with the real program to see is it is working on the same way.

I found by suprise a bug in the original program. This one is not coming in my program but i would like you to know how it works.

on earth you make your production crew. when the poule is full you are not able to make more. At the moment i got 198 crew working. i did send the crew to the shuttle bay. and train 100 new production crew. then i step one day ahead. The training is starting. I go to the shuttle bay and send the production crew back to production.
So far so good. Then i advanced the time until the training is over. Did go back to the production department. suprisengly i hade only 2 crew memebers working there. The other 198 menbers are lost. I could not find them anywhere. This is a bug in the program. Cause the new members did give a overload on the max allauwed crew working. The program calculate the overload from already crew here to max and that is the new crew total. Deleting the training crew en the crew in the production store.

Be sure this bug is not coming in my program.

Still busy to work out the shuttle bay and shuttle. then earth part is done. going to next step. see if i can clue it to the earth part.

[bfrnhout]

Ok Some update. not a mayor one. Little things and testing the shuttle bay. Only fuel and going inside the shuttle no done. But that is comming now.
Download and tell me where the bugs are.

I hope next time to have the save option active.

Looking good.

I did notice one thing, I missed before.
If you hold mouse pointer over time advance, you could hold the left mouse button and it would advance until you stopped left click (Im talking about date / time at the bottom of screen).

The production seems perfect, apart from it wont build, if I click another product, it adds next bit to derrick, then I advance time, it crashes with memory violation.

Training is perfect. I would consider that section complete.

Could'nt test shuttle bay, as it would'nt let me build any parts.

[bfrnhout]

Thanks for the info, Your right that must working I wil look in to it for the time advance in the time bar. Ok that memory violation is a indication that there is a piece of graphics missing. I look in to it.

The shuttle is not finished. I did uploaded the program because i did see that the time was while back. That i updated the program. The shuttle is given me a pain in the ass. Cause i have 3 differend kinds of space bay's. Shuttle, IOS, Stardrive. First is was using one and the same bay type but that was a big problem. In the first version this and the combination planets methanoids was a mix up that make the program gone haywire so that the humans did getting resource from the methanoids. Now its all in its own type, and it work better. But becaus of that i have to write all the function saperetly. And some then i have to make the interactive betwee all the bays and station. For the shuttle alone i have to made 30 seperate functions. That is including the chaphics sequence for animation. Some parts is no problems others do. E.G. scraping the shuttle, is harde cause its already linkt to the station (and earth). The link shows the shuttle in the bay. but when i wand to scrape the shuttle it is going down but stil the shuttle is in the picture. Thats why it take so long. I have to figurer it out before i can write the function. And i have to keep track because of the saving that has to come next.

Thanks for the reply, In a couple of weeks the next update.

[bfrnhout]

I am still busy with the program. My bigest poblem is for the moment the graphics. I need some graphics that i can not grab. Cause its not comming on the screen. Ik am trying differend kind of approach. But it stil not working. As long as i have not the graphics i can not go on for the game.
The graphics are Pirate ship catching, PTL research and building stage, Prison toolpod, research and building.
Maybe more but for now i know this parrt i need for to go on.

[bfrnhout]

Almost a year is past and i am stil not far. Ik have it so far that there is a fast save and fast load. The save file is not yet don. My Shuttle page is giving me a headache. And then the stuff i need for some little animation is stil not in. But my plan on how the program have to work hav a final shape. So i am rewirting some code to make the shuttle bay working good. and to make the background of the shuttle bay as spacedock to.
Wandeing around on the internet I found some cracked versions where the crack had screwed up the game. Where you can nog go on because of the alien artifact wat is orbiting earth. Some Glits build in the program. Even the cheat is now in. With the same reaction on the screen. Anly the information of the mouse click is differend i saw.

When i resold the problem in the shuttle bay the new step is coming. I hope in a week or 2.
