A fter a long long time Princess Kitana has finally decided to enlarge the layout of her pages. For this purpose all pages have been completely revised and been redrawn with new and larger background images of the castle. Princess Kitana herself is thoroughly satisfied with the new layout. The layout provides almost twice as much space as the old one so we can show even more and larger images. But best of all is that there now is more space for more text information. All halls and rooms of the castle now have detailled descriptions and the Unreal Tournament Ranking can show much more information than before. D aniel, the Royal Sourcerer at Kitana's Castle, has finally opened his code library. There he publishes a selection of his amazing source codes in several different code languages including BASIC, Pascal, and Assembler. The books cover topics from direct hardware access in Assember language over graphics programming to TCP/IP communication in BASIC and Pascal. He will add more source code books every week. And he also plans to add C, Java, and UnrealScript source codes in the near future. At the Library you can also find the Wizard's Forum where Daniel will try to answer your programming related questions. We hope a nice wizard/programmer community will grow soon who share their knowledge and discuss programming topics at the Library. N ow it is done: The new Kitana pictures from Sabine Weiss are online! The artist has painted wonderful pictures for the Entryhall and the Throne Room. And she has also redrawn the character Kitana from scratch. You can admire this work in the Throne Room and soon in many other halls of the castle, too. W e are now playing "Settlers of Catan - The card game" at the Playground. You can play versus another human player or versus an artificial intelligence. The rules are identical to the original card game. A ranking showing the best matches and players will follow soon and if there are enough players, then we will have a tournament. We hope you have fun. A beautiful faerie sometimes resides within the huge halls of the castle. She loves to hide as do all of her kind but if found, she will bestow upon you a wonderful gift. Remember to keep your eyes wide open and look out for the little faerie. W e have recently bought some new server hardware. The site is now being hosted on an AMD XP 2000+ that is relieving the old server. This means the site will now be available for a full 24 hours every day! The new server is also doing all the special tasks such as updating the UT ranking, etc. These services have now been made permanently available as well.
