No Mmutes Submitted.

Wouldn't you know that the best day of the whole year so far would fall on the day of our April SPACE meeting! With only six members present we still managed to hold an interesting meeting. Thanks to Brian we got to look at a new Atari product. It consisted ofthe original looking Atari joystick with ten classic• 2600 type games built right into the joystick. It plugs into any TV or monitor with standard RCA audio/video jacks, and the games seem to play quite well. I understand from Brian they only cost around $20.00. Start looking for them in your favorite electronics stores. Now for the actual treasury report for April 2003:

As a point ofreference, I use 1030 Express with my XM301 modem. Several of the local BBS's are Collie Boards (L&H, Reference Point, Valley ofFlowers, and others). They require you to use ASCII and not ATASCII. When you connect to one of these boards the message "CONNECTED" is displayed and everything stops there. Don't hang

up. Press <RETURl~> one or two times. The BBS is waiting for this to determine your baud rate before it continues. Now that you are up nnd nmning. the screen will fill lots of numbers and letters that look · like garbage. This is a "pretty picture" that is not compatible with the

When asked for your first name, tell it your first and last name to save

an ell.1ra step. Better yet use your Macros as follows.

Macro# 1 ... First & Last Name Macro#2 ... Y Macro #3 ... Your Password Now your Log-on is as simple as 1-2-3. You will now get one or two more "pictures". Use the <Control "C" again to skip past them. Collie Boards as well as some others send everything in an 80-column format, which can be veiy hard to read on your 40-column display. Instructions start on the right ofyour screen and wrap around to the left side in the middle ofwords. I have found that setting your left margin to 5 or 6 will cause most text to at least start on the left side of the screen. Some boards like Fido and Atari Outpost let you set defaults that tell "them" bow many columns to send thus eliminating the problem all together.

When Uploading or Downloading ASCII files (Text Files or LISTED Basic Programs). The transfer will go faster in ASCII then it will in XMODEM. Also XMOOEM wiff fill the last 6Iock it transfers wiili zeros to make it a full block. These will show up as hearts at the end of a text file. ~ To download in ASCII use the Capture to Disk option. The resulting disk file can now be loaded by your word processor, copied to the screen "S:" from OOS, or in the case of a Basic Program, ENTERED from Basic. To Upload in ASCII use the Send from Disk or Send Buffer options. A delay rate of about 15 works great for local boards. Use a slower rate (25 or 30) ifyou are calling long distance. After the file has been uploaded things will seem to stop again. The BBS is waiting for an EOF (End of File) character to let it know that your transfer is complete. At least on the Collie Boards this is a <CONTROI> "Z". You can use the Send from Disk or Send Buffer options to transfer text to the message base also. This will allow you to put the same message on several boards while only having to type it once. You can also type it earlier using you favorite Word Processor and spelling checker. That's a must for me. Don't include any Control Characters or printer commands in your text to send to a message base, and remember that a <RETURN> on an empty line tells the BBS that your message is complete. Another board, The Lompoc Guide, has a different trick that you have to use to g~ connected to it. It is called "Ring Back". Call the board, but hang up after it rings once. Then, immediately call back and you will get Connected. This scheme is used so the phone can be shared with the computer or used by the family for normal calls. I have learned a lot just by blundering around different BBS's. Most of the ' Sysops are pretty tolerant and willing to help you out ifyou just ask.

LOS ANGELES ? April 24, 2003 ? Atari announced today the development of a videogame based on Terminator 3: Rise ofthe Machines, the upcoming summer blockbuster motion picture from Intermedia, IMF and C2 Pictures, scheduled for nationwide release by Warner Bros. Pictures on July 2. The film will also be released overseas through Columbia TriStar Film Distributors International and in Japan by Toho Towa. A first-person action game currently in development for all major console gaming platforms, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines will -- for the first time on next-generation console systems -- allow players to become the Terminator Series signature icon, Arnold Schwarzenegger as the original Terminator. This marks the first time Arnold

Schwarzenegger's voice and likeness has ever appeared in a home videogame. ?The Terminator series is one of the most popular movie franchises in existence today and its latest incarnation, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, is one of the most highly anticipated movie releases of 2003,? said Jean-Philippe Agati, senior vice president and head of Infogrames, Inc. 's Los Angeles studio. ?Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, the videogame, will capitalize on eveiy aspect of the feature film's popularity from a mind-bending plot that closely follows the movie's script to the first ever appearance of Arnold Schwarunegger's likeness and voice in a videogame. Gamers and Terminator fans alike are literally going to be blown away when we give them an opportunity to become one ofthe most advanced fighting machines ever created.?

Terminator 3: Rise ofthe Machines will feature exclusive film footage created specifically for the release of the videogame and not available in the motion picture. Filmed by director Jonathan Mostow, this 5minute segment features Arnold Schwarzenegger and sheds new light on the mythology behind the origins of the Terminator. In addition, footage from the feature film is also used liberally throughout the -· game to set up key situations and story-related game elements. 'Videogames have become an entertainment medium as big as the movies they are based on,' said C-2 producers Andy Vajna and Mario Kassar. ?Now the Terminator has found the most exciting and authentic expression as a videogame of what made these movies a hit in theaters around the world and we are proud to be partnered with Atari in bringing Terminator 3: Rise ofthe Machines into homes everywhere.? The Terminator 3: Rise ofthe Machines videogame storyline will weave in and out of the movie script as players face enemies from the present in which the War ofthe Machines looms on the horizon, to the apocalyptic future where the War itself is waged on all fronts. While following the feature film's plot closely, Terminator 3: Rise ofthe Machines will go one step further by providing.fans of the Terminator series with a deeper look into the movie's universe and the role ofthe Terminator, a futuristic fighting machine reprogrammed to save humanity from the SkyNet holocaust. As the Terminator, players will face all comers in first-person action from the wastelands of the future to present-day Los Angeles. Military bases, laboratories and downtown Los Angeles are just a few of the more than 20 unique locations found in the game, which have been taken straight from the current Terminator timeline of events. In addition, more than 20 futuristic and modem-day weapons will be at the player's disposal for use in terminating any enemy in the most efficient manner possible, including the SkyNct Arc-Laser, Tech-Com Micro Rocket LalIDCher and the AR-15 Assault Rifle with M202 Grenade Lawtcher. Much like the feature film, when Tenninators clash in Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines all hell is sure to break loose. Terminators are designed to utilire the most readily and efficient means available to eliminate any particular foe -- when that enemy is a Terminator this leads to absolutely brutal hand-to-hand combat. Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines will allow player's to engage in true movi~like Terminator combat as they repeatedly face the ultimate killing machine, the T-X, throughout the single-player game. Smashing opponents into walls, massive two-handed chops and crushing kicks are just a few of the dozens of moves in the Terminator's arsenal.

:\ unique twist in the Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines story will also allow players to operate the Terminator before it was reprogrammed in the future to save John Connor. As a result, players will be able to test their terminating skills against battle-hardened Tech Com special forces from the future as they fight alongside and utiliz.e Sk-yNet?s advanced weaponry, including Future Killer tanks and flyers, fixed gun emplacements as well as otherTenn.inators in an effort to crush the last remnants of mankind. Developed by Black Ops Entertainment, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines will make its debut on all major console gaming systems in Fall 2003.
