Well, the homepage states the following:

Quote:
Will there be new members in this Kefrens project?
We have not decided at this time what the answer is, I guess we want to hear what the world think of this first. Maybe we will? Maybe we will not?

What about old members?
Old members is allowed to contact us and maybe be part of this, if they still have the interest in it. It is up to the old members to decide that by contacting us.

Anyway we would very much like old members to contact us, so we at least have there e-mail or phone number and can keep in touch with the old forces of the pyramids. Maybe they know some history we have forgotten or maybe they also want to talk about old days and new days.


Iguess only Razmo and Mellica are involved so far, since they are the only ones to contact :)

yyyyeah but this kindof means they're not really busting a nut trying to find the old guys? :)

Gargaj: hehe - I like the way you put it :D - but you might be right - however Im just glad when some people (re-)joins the demoscene - especially in Denmark, since we have become very few active sceners here...

I like that you're planning on doing Amiga hardware effects again. It's been a long time since anyone made any of those. 060 and c2p kinda killed that, and that blows.

@Gargaj we have done a lot to try locating old Kefrens members, but a lot of e-mail addresses and phones do not work anymore to them. So I guess it now leave us to the last thing: That old members maybe will see the Kefrens homepage and get in contact with us.

Try to remember that Razmo and I have not been in contact with Kefrens Members since 1994. We do not even know if some of the Kefrens members even are alive, a lot of things can have happened in all these years!

Anyway, Razmo and I want to do some old-school stuff, and see what we can produce on Amiga 500 just for fun, if it looks good at the end, we will bring it to our site. We will not release something lame, if that word is still used these days hehehe, I find the word a bit out of date, but hey some of you apparently uses the old language :D

Old language, old computer, old platform, oldskool :D
mellica: less words, more action ;)
I bought back an a500 myself lately in order to revisit the machine.

Subject: sad news

Hi,
I just wanted to inform the trax people that Martin Agger, better
known as Maestro of Kefrens, died the 14th of june. His name may not
sound very familiar the newest guys in the scene, but I'm sure the
other ones didn't forget his amiga carreer.
May he rest in peace.

@hitchhikr: I am very sad to hear this, Maesto was a great guy, and damn that is sad news to me indeed. I sure do not hope I find out more old members from Kefrens has died!

Actions are in motion at this point, I am doing a lot of documentation about the Amiga 500 - 68000 processor and writing comments on all the source codes I am doing right now so Razmo can read it an learn the same old stuff I find out. razmo is doing the same for me.

But no doubt, I must get up to speed because I have not coded assembler since 1992, so I am sitting here and learning again the old code language. It is going well, I am remembering things slowly as I am codning and reading the hardware reference manual.

So actions will happen soon or later ;)

Good luck with the coding! :-) may the dc.l $70004e75 (that's the opcode for moveq #0,d0 rts just in case you don't recognize it anymore ;D) forces be with you. :) If you get stuck, the ADA forummight be a good place to ask questions. :)

Razmo and I have managed after months of searching to reach Metallion. He will be a member of this Kefrens project today, so the 3 first Kefrens members starts again as we did in the late 80’s

This is just info to sceners that wants to know about it.
