It holds a piece of software that has been developed by the award-winning INCENTIVE team, who for the last four years have produced hit after hit with their amazing FREESCAPE 3D graphics systems.
Now that unique system is available for you to "play around with". It's been designed for easy use - mouse/icon driven controls that require no programming skills at all.
You can design a car, house, aeroplane (or whatever you want!) and then walk around it. See what it looks like from any angle. Change it. Add colour, detail, animation. The possibilities are endless.
And it's ideal for creating games. If you're not artistic, don't worry - there are lots of objects already included in the kid for you to use in your plans, but it's simple to create your own if you want.
So, if you enjoy playing games, but want to use your computer's real capabilities for a change, this is a perfect opportunity.
VIRTUAL REALITY - you've heard about it, read about it, and now it's here at your fingertips.
A PDF copy of the instruction manual can be downloaded here via the Unofficial 3D Construction Kit website at www.3dconstructionkit.co.uk

Hammer Down - Map for the Commodore 64
The book of course is a brilliant read, and a must for anyone who grew up with Mastertronic games in the 1980s, but over the past week or so I've been addicted to the game Hammer Down. The best way to describe it is a top-down version of the classic Mastertronic game Action Biker. In fact, I believe the author of the game (the late Jason Kelk) was trying to mix the gameplay of Action Biker, with the top-down-view graphic style of The Last V8.
Anyway, the game is wonderful and I can't praise it enough, with great graphics and an awesome SID rendition of "The Return of the Las Palmas 7" by Madness playing in the background.
Anyway, through a lot of playing I managed to beat the game and locate all the items and bonuses and I have included the map here. Hopefully, other people will find it useful, especially if they're having trouble locating an item.
Items are identified as stars, and the bonuses are indicated by numbers in blue circles. The map loops around, and you should be able to see where one end of the maps leads to the other end.
The game can be obtained from Psytronik's website here
The book (and many others) can be purchased from Fusion Retro Book's website here.
