Atomic Mixed Utilities #1 (Created: 06.05.1991.)

A utility disk pack from Atomic that I have no recollection of at all.

Atomic Intro Pack #1

(2021, March, 12 - 09:31am)

Atomic Intro Pack #1 (Created: Some time after 23.10.1992.)

This is most likely the collection from where I lifted the circulating version of Roadzanity, although I wouldn't swear on it - it could be the other way around from some other media. This is the only real production I ever released as a 'coder'. There are also other productions from members here as well. I am not sure if Flesh was a member or a swapper or something else, but the rest seems like familiar.

Edit: Seeing as it seems there was a beef with Flesh from Majic12, so he was definitively not a member then.

Edit2: I don't think this one is available in the wild yet either, though some of the demos that are contained within probably is.

First one out: 7th Sign Util Disk # 1

(2021, March, 12 - 07:04am)

7th Sign Util Disk #1 (Created: Definitively in 1990, some time after 11th of September 1990, probably 24.09.1990.)

I had a vague memory of making a tool/util disk at one point. This is one I thought was lost, so I was amazed to see the DMS file placed in one of my folders. It is indeed my alias back in the day; Trouble. Even friends (and not so good friends) are greeted; even people I don't remember who is behind the alias any more.

Be warned, though... My unarchiver tool complains that the file is corrupted. That can mean nothing, but it can also mean a virus like Saddam Exterminator. Luckily it is OFS, so I will have a go at analysing the file structure and see if there is hope in recreating whatever is wrong with the blocks on the disk. Download at your own risk, at least till I had time sanitising the image.

I have no idea the date for when I made this utility diskette, but it has to be 1988/1989/1990. The files on the disk can possibly give a rough estimate, which I will later do some research on. I would also be surprised if this disk is found in the wild, so today is possibly the first time it has been put forward for the world to see. Yes, I know those are big words for such an insignificant thing... ;)

Edit: I already found a file dated 01.01.1990, so that is definitively the year, and after that date. Then I found another file dated 11/09/1990 which I guess is European date format since street names in Europe was used, so after 11 september some time.
