AMCOG produces games which are all written in BASIC, although the minimum spec machine for them is a Pi1 which has rather more processing power than the original Archimedes!

There's as thread on the ROOL forum discussing debugger features - https://www.riscosopen.org/forum/forums/2/topics/15491

Holding down numbers has never worked for me Just checking that you are holding down the numbers on the numeric keypad, not on the main keyboard? To check if it really has started up ok, try pressing F12 and then Ctrl-G which should beep. Then try entering "WimpMode 28" to switch to VGA mode, which...

Not that it would have affected the overall result, but you used my last score (6220) for Arcadians not my hi-score (8370)

That was the only two games I had time to play!

Not great

Poor

Me please, from about 1pm until the end.

You can probably find Euclid around somewhere, or keep an eye on:

... I'm seeing if we can get an proper re-release.

Projector v1.27 is the latest I've found. Now I just need to hack it to scale films to the correct size in modern high res modes! On the meeting page is a link to my hacked version of Projector, 1.27b, that scales things correctly, along with a zip of sample films. http://rougol.jellybaby.net/meeti...

There's also Transient, which comes with TrapDelete - http://www.stronged.iconbar.com/fjg/

I'll be there from about 1pm until chucking out time.

This page on the RISC OS Open wiki still only goes up to 9 - https://www.riscosopen.org/wiki/documen ... %20Numbers

Absolutely love that!

Please do The Liberator next

If you look in !Boot.Resources.Configure.Monitors there should be a bunch of definition files for lots of monitors. Copy the one you are currently using, edit the line near the top that says "monitor_title:" to give it your own unique name, then add acorndave's lines into it. To test it, drag the fi...

Remember that because these are analogue joysticks, the computer is measuring the resistance from the potentiometers. With no joystick connected, it is infinite resistance, so it will look like the joystick is pushed fully over. A joystick in its central position would, if everything is working, gen...

I'll be there, likely from 1pm ish until chucking out time

Thanks davidb, I've managed to grab some useful examples from there.

Attached is Projector v1.27 which is the latest I've found. Now I just need to hack it to scale films to the correct size in modern high res modes!

Thanks,
Bryan.

I've still got it, but was looking for someone who could collect it. Not that it's going anywhere at the moment!

For compatibility with most games, you'll be better off using Arculator.

You'll still need ADFFS within that to access the JFD files!

Not being quite as good as Sophie is something we can all aspire too!

Regarding Euclid and co, does anyone have any good example films, or links?

I'm sure there were some fancy ones on magazine cover discs BITD but I don't know how to find them now

Thanks,
Bryan.

I always preferred the Voltmace analogue joysticks, and some games can only be played with analogue sticks.

For digital joysticks, there have been several adapters for Atari style ones posted on StarDot, but I've no experience with them.

Yes, calling them 26bit is just silly!

Clearly lots of bonus points that I didn't know how to get, as others have a higher score while being on much lower level!

I hate platform games
