I don't know if the 4.39 ROM is compressed at all. If it's exactly 4MB or 6MB already it's not compressed, else it'll be 21 bytes again.

I'm going to bring my USB cassette recorder, that can do tapes to WAV. Converting that to .TAP is left as an exercise for the more knowledgeable

I dunno if it helps, but here is your original picture with a few levels tweaked to increase contrast and the background made full white.

A quick update, the extra 2 shows worth are now online at the original URL

http://www.4corn.co.uk/articles/showpdfs/

The new ones are the first two shows.

Karma II (?) This probably refers to 'Karma' the complete game as opposed to the released 'flight trainer' version. Project stopped due to death of one of the programmers. Spitfire Fury (Fourth Dimension) - turned into Birds of War Nope, two separate games. Spitfire Fury is another game by Andrew H...

These are a collection of flyers and brochures from Acorn shows in the 80s. The chap seemed to have gone to each stand and picked up the leaflets from each.

Are they the same items that used to be on the Acorn FTP site? See here for a mirror

I had a great time over the weekend and got a lot done! pico, md5sum, sha256sum, mini_httpd, lua, angband compiled up for Risc iX My A4 keyboard works again with assistance from Phil M I had a go at writing a program using the BBC Graphics Extension Rom sprite plotting routines, it works! Many thank...

In theory these bugs have been fixed, which version of RPCEmu are you running? And which repository are you building it from?

Well, I'll put me name down for this again. Last time was excellent.

I recommend you use this tutorial written by one of the maintainers of RPCEmu [1]. It matches your setup well, RISC OS 3 on Windows. http://www.4corn.co.uk/articles/rpcemu371win/ [1] Disclaimer, that would be me. Answers to your questions inline below, Hi there. I apologise in advance for lots of qu...

'Current' RISC OS is a minefield of software compatibility, if spending a lot on a machine research whether the software you want exists, costs, runs on your chosen hardware and does what you want. But in general RISC OS software is at least a decade or more behind in features of what you'd expect i...

I'm trying to play Arya: The Dragon's Quest from Skullsoft, but can't get the graphics to look right except for the text. I'm running it on RPCEmu/Arculator, but I don't think it's related to emulation and most likely the game requires a specific mode, but I can't find any reference to it. Is there...

All the holes were drilled in the making of it.

I would like too make some pcb board for a project I have got how do I going about doing this from the software I would need and were too get the boards done. I'm certainly not the most experienced person on here who's done this, I've made one board! http://www.stardot.org.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?f...

Quite a few of these are 'new' and haven't been on Chris's Acorns before.

A new version of RPCEmu is available, 0.8.15 http://www.marutan.net/rpcemu/ * All Platforms - Issue with 8MB VRAM being less stable has been resolved, code is now correctly allowed in the 2-8MB area. - ARM SWP instruction correctly handles unaligned access. - Enhancements to TLB to correctly flush c...

OK, so IMHO it's not RiscOS that has problems with USB devices but the USB keyboard implementations are different. Is that right? Yeah, RISC OS has a problem with *some* USB devices, including the one on the arduino, where it's what's known as a composite device (multiple different devices combined...

I don't get it .... Flaxcottage has RiscOS Pico running with USB. Is there a difference between the two RiscOS versions in handling USB devices? We use different USB devices for converting the Electron key matrix to a USB keyboard. Flaxcottage uses the Tynemouth Software board, costing 42 quid, I u...

I thought I'd post a little update, I've had quite a lot of success with using an Arduiono Leonardo to do the the conversion from electron matrix to USB. I took it to my local Raspberry Jam on Sunday and it survived being poked and prodded by the public. Many games of Arcadians were played :) I hope...

I had one at home, parents bought it in 1990 ish.

I found this picture of AMX Desk from an advert, did it look this good in real life? (proportionally spaced font?)

Great stuff , what days are you planning on attending ?

I should be able to do all.

Ooooh, you beat me to it

I have an arduino leonardo on the the way to do the electron keyboard to usb keyboard mapping.
