Title: Missing / Unknown Extensions
Post by: Lonewolf10 on April 09, 2016, 11:47:46 AM

I was just searching through the Maze Hunter executable file and at the end of the file was the usual string data listing all the extensions used to make the game.

(http://www.aliensrcooluk.com/public/Images/MazeHunter_extensions.png)

Amongst them are some I have never heard of...

Code: [Select]

Amospro_FXc2p.lib
AmosPro_Castle2000.lib
AmosPro_3DFelix.lib
AmosPro_FXScreens.lib
AmosPro_FXFelix.lib
Now these could be custom extensions made by Frederic Cordier (programmer of Maze Hunter) or they could be public extensions we haven't tracked down yet.
Has anyone heard of any of these?

No, but the AMCAF extension has a C2P function already.

Here's another one:

ATOMIX extension by Chris Foote (cruncher utility)

It is mentioned in Totally AMOS #12 and is supposed to be for AMOS Professional.
So far I have found nothing more about the extension on the internet. However, Chris has done a few things including being the coder on the game Operation Lemmings (it is coded in AMOS). (the game runs best on a 68000 CPU, anything faster and I found the game crashes or has corrupt graphics)

Jetstrike uses 2 custom extensions - AMusic and AnimX - and some publicly available ones (Sticks, TOME, CText & Range)

Base Jumpers uses 3 custom extensions - AMusic, Stuff, CD - and some publicly available ones (Sticks, TOME, CText & Range)

Use of custom extensions confirmed in interview here:

@LoneWolf10 :
Like I answered you in the private messaging, and I complete :

Amospro_FXc2p.lib is the adaptation of a 68020 freeware C2P routine to Amos/AmosPRO. Never released as I am not the owner of the C2P routine.

AmosPro_Castle2000.lib is a library for a 3D game project I did never finished... To handle the 2D/3D tile system...

AmosPro_3DFelix.lib some 3D functions for maths calculations...

AmosPro_FXScreens.lib AGA screens that are now included in the Personal.lib

AmosPro_FXFelix.lib some misc functions included in the personal.lib

Regards,
