Thanks for the update, and glad that it finally got sorted out

Just make a Space:1999+1 "Director's Cut HD Remix" version

Hello guys, I really enjoyed meeting old friends at this Vieumikro, and new ones like Kenneth (who incidentally is as old as me :wink: ) Vieumikro is definitely the place to be in October, maybe other oricians will make the journey next year ! :D Cheers to all, Fabrice I would definitely have atten...

kenshigros: I'm currently querying people to know what the status of the production is:
Other: If you have received your cumulus recently and are still display in the queue on the first post, please tell so I can update.

Thanks.

I'm not sure about who actually know about using Twilighte's tools: - I think Chema used WAVE to compose the music in 1337 (The conversion from 1492 by Vangelis) - Symoon may know if the CEO mag has articles about how to use Sonix/Wave/Soundtracker/etc... I myself never been past the "load a mu...

You mean, 1.2
There's already a 1.1 out there

If you have one for defence force, you can share as well

The version 1.3 of the OSDK is now available, with the following changes: - Updated code generator and macros for the C compiler (bug fix for the MicroChess program). - Many fixes to make the LINUX version a reality (case change for files, gcc compile fixes, ...). - Upgraded Bas2Tap and Tap2Dsk to g...

It's the version I hacked from Jonathan's source code: I moved all the buffers at the start of the program, and they are cleared *after* the program start. So basically it will erase what is in page 4, like the previous version, but at least it allows the loading because it loads higher in memory. I...

There was a word processor on the Oric which emulated a 60 column mode using HIRES.
Was a bit slow, but usable

Yeah, he had a small HTTP server for it. BIP stands for BASIC IP

You mean that the machine has 64k ram and 90% of the users could not use it because they only had a tape deck? That's why some of my demos (ex: Buggy Boy), despite being one single executable file that fits in memory, are available only as floppy versions: It's to have access to the additional 16k ...

The thing is, Eclipse is large (large like HUGE), slow to start, full of menus all over the place, etc... I sure hope the WUDSN is a trimmed down version of Eclipse :) (Also, it's written in Java, and I'm trying to get rid of Java on all my computers, the only thing that needs it is my netbank ident...

Optimized for BASIC you mean
Because honestly the speed of the display is just laughable

You have to consider that you if you don't use the BASIC, you can use the 16k of overlay memory.
Also the BASIC is efficient in code term, but the storage of variables is highly inefficient compared to what you would have in C or assembler.
