Great! I'm still a bit backlogged on getting my Twilighte+Sittler cards set up for Orix hacking .. but I hope to join you soon, in running all these great things.

I can't say I have much love for PoP either, as a game, but the idea of having a conversion for Oric is interesting. It seems to me that the Wurdle demo was headed in that direction: having a similar kind of feel/vibe with rotoscoped animation and Twilighte-level cleverness with colour placement. Po...

Nice idea .. seems like it would be easiest to build a hash-table of all Oric .dsk/.tap files you can find, then bundle that into a database and include it in the app so that whenever the user adds .dsk/.tap files, their games are instantly recognised .. Or, another idea - you could just build in an...

Sorry Chema, haven't had a chance yet - my working Oric rig is in a local hackerspace in preparation for a demo later this week - I will try it then, though. Does it matter if its an Oric-1 or Atmos?

Great! :) About the object-draw: perhaps when you get to the screen fade/merge code, you might consider adding a menu option "Provide Hints", and then, if true, draw the objects with a slightly different fade or something .. anyway, great video, its really looking like a fun game to play. Only issue...

Well, I will never sell my Telestrat. Far too neat.

That. Is. Ridiculous.

/me glances casually at my Telestrat .. hmm .. worth it for a new Macbook Pro .. hmm ...

Great, I feel honoured! My only comment is, seeing the objects drawn that way is a dead giveaway!

But, as usual, I remain impressed and look forward to playing.

I never got beyond tape with Oric .. which was why I was so surprised to finally get a Cumulus and find so much stuff I never knew about.

What about a "Twilighte" sub-forum?

Do you want to turn your Oric into a synthesiser, and never use it for anything else? . Because this is how we get synthesisers.

I may be wildly wrong here, but isn't the reference to '06bb' an indicator that there's a bad character in the sources? Can you post the main.s in a way that its content is preserved (attach as file rather than insert text) and maybe inspect it with a hex editor to see if there are dud chars in there?

Honestly this kind of trouble is the fun kind!

This may not be of any use to the situation, but I recently ran into a few times with bas2tap that it produces corrupt output if the line numbers are too variant, or indeed big, and I solved the problem by using an online Basic-listing renumbering tool, which 'normalised' the line numbers throughout...

Count me in if there is a community buy to scan it. I'd love to have this book ..
