WhatIFF?

amifan · 07 December 2021, 08:43

Since the magazine is progressing I thought I would put the updates under a proper thread. The name is now finalised with WhatIFF? - in AmigaGuide and the first issue over halfway done. Issue 1 will contain:

Reviews:
- SCSI2SD v6
- GuruModem
- TF1260
- Re-review GVP DSS8

Guides:
-Telser setup on networked Amigas
-Lightwave 3.5 installation
-OctaMED 101 - splicing

In addition there will be articles from Cammy, Kinami, Steve Lord and myself. Still a way to go but if anyone has any ideas or wishes to write something please contact me.

Looking forward to it!

This will be an exciting magazine.

amifan · 08 December 2021, 02:56

Thank you guys, hopefully we can get some other technical minded people onboard for some more technical articles.

Great to see it coming on. I can’t commit to the project just yet, writing duties on Amiga Addict and Pixel Addict are taking most of my time. Hopefully in the new year I will have streamlined system that will allow for more projects.

Is this your YouTube channel?

In the meantime looking forward to reading your articles in Amiga Addict.

Wow, how did you find us so quickly?! They must like the Interchange File Format as well.

I do the creative revolution articles in AA. Been going since issue 4. A lot of work, but so much fun.

amifan · 10 December 2021, 01:35

I see that is great, I always go to that part of the magazine first lol, really enjoyed the last one about the IFF format.

fxgogo · 10 December 2021, 06:21

Thanks, appreciate that. I really enjoyed doing that one.

amifan · 16 December 2021, 03:00

An official website has been created for distribution (though it is a very simple site) of the magazine alongside Aminet.

www.whatiff.info

The first issue is almost there, it has some pretty good reviews and articles plus a great interview.

Pyromania · 16 December 2021, 03:32

I hope you charge at least $1 for this so you can at least make a little cash for your efforts.

amifan · 16 December 2021, 03:35

Nah, I am happy to do this for the community, if it is something that is helpful to others that is most important thing. If possible I would want to pay the contributors for their efforts.

Cammy · 16 December 2021, 08:01

Fantastic, congratulations on creating the website! I'm looking forward to reading Issue 1.

amifan · 16 December 2021, 09:48

Thank you Cammy, I am hoping people will enjoy the first issue. We also have a new section, Amiga Rant, we are looking for people to submit an article about the Amiga, it can be anything: what you hate or love about the Amiga, how the colour scheme offends your sense of taste, why it should have had 4 mouse ports instead of 2, anything at all! Looking forward to your submissions

coldacid · 16 December 2021, 13:52

The website isn't working for me, it looks like the server was overwhelmed.

amifan · 16 December 2021, 14:15

Hmm that is odd, I just checked it now and it is working, you tried? www.whatiff.info

coldacid · 16 December 2021, 16:13

Ah, it looks like it's the HTTP Everywhere extension to blame. Putting the URL in with explicit http:// instead of using the links in this thread worked.

amifan · 24 December 2021, 14:47

First issue of What IFF? is now available from the website: www.whatiff.info
Unfortunately I am having trouble uploading to Aminet at the moment but it will be available there hopefully next week. I have to thank SteveLord for all his help on this project, without his support for the first issue it would not have happened. I hope you guys can enjoy it, it is the first issue so I imagine there will be some teething problems but I hope that it will get better with each issue. Happy holidays everyone!
