scene activity

more and more i get the feeling that the my world (the scene) has become smaller and smaller. after a chat with the overkiller it was clear to me that the dutch scene isn't alive anymore and the italian scene either.

but what about the polish scene, the slovak scene and the german scene? how did the c64 survive through all the modern thinkings and technology?

sure as hell i bet the german scene survived because the pc-sceners adopted the c64 on their parties like mekka+symposium.....

Any magazine you can read front to back in the time it takes to smoke a cigerette isn't a mag, i suggest we call it a "scene leaflette" or perhaps a "scene blurb"

tdj, if you're game for an online mag, so am i. I can kill an hour a day writing crapshit, just ask anyone on irc :) Alongside some virtual sweethearts like Hollow, Puter, TMR etc. it could vent off a lot of these "retard scene" aggressions. You could create peace in the 64 scene, the middle east, africa.. geez even Stryyker's pants could be at peace for one night :)

Many of us became active (or active again) owing it to the internet. I had no idea there still exists any interest in C64 until I stepped upon some compo results, published on EMU64 (AFAIR) in 1999.

Damn you Fade, now you have me seriously thinking this over .. I could try to get Sander do the design, come up with interesting chapters, get people involved who I know can write (so no Commander) ..

Argh! Go Away!

That was a long read...

About learning to code & tutorials,
when i started learning to code Assembly it was 1986.
There was no internet & no tutorials. Only some lame books
and LOTS OF CODE.

This is the key and IMHO the *BEST* way to learn, start
your monitor and go to work on a routine you'd like to
learn.

Yes, it might take time & effort, but thats the only way
to get better.

No pain, no gain ;)

Today the resources are almost unlimited.
You'd be surprised the amount of help you might get by
only getting into #c-64 and asking around!

Shake, STeppe: didn't know both of them, checking at the moment and both look really nice.

I think i'll put the stuff i've collected so far (and still am) on my homepage when it will finally be relaunched (what may still take ages): )

TDJ: I forgot to ask, last time. Will there be any more Dark Courts at c64.sk? Should I ask Wrath Designs for their intricate artsy fartsy reviews? Or Richard Bayliss with his earthy descriptive style? Maybe I should ask some polish dude who still calls western scene countries, "na zachodzie" (which in slovak means... on the toilet :) and writes his reviews in polish.. then translate them into English.. what should I do anyway? ;-))))
