Thanks Steve for your input! I was myself surprised the Library would allow sending full prints but I thought maybe because the book is old it is permitted... But you're probably right, there must be a limit to how much of the book you're allowed to copy... Anyway, good news for everyone.... I actua...

Thanks DBug for the enquiry! The book is indeed listed in the British Library's main catalogue: Explore the British Library - oric advanced user guide It appears to be possible to order a digital or print copy: - click on the "I want this" tab below the book details - then click on the "Go" button t...

... Skyrocketed to €182 + €12 shipping, gosh!!! This really is a mad world !!

Glad to hear that... Maybe I underestimate the difficulty of the first episode ? I thought it was quite easy... and most testers thought the same too. Well, contrary to testers, I remember having a really tough time with Episode 1 as well !! And more generally speaking I did not find it to be an "e...

That'd be great, cause I'd really love to have a copy of this book as well !!!

Bonjour à tous, Après un travail de finition bien plus long que prévu initialement, la version française de Blake's 7 est désormais finalisée et disponible, et la documentation est également entièrement traduite: Blake's 7 - Version française Merci à l'auteur Chema pour la confiance qu'il m'a témoig...

The problem I have with videos is they take a long time to watch and you generally don't get the associated "materials" to take away (code, documentation, etc.). But that's only my personal opinion of course, some people prefer watching stuff other like me prefer reading stuff. Well, everything is ...

Hi Miguel, Are you trying to load WAV files you found on some site, or WAV file you sampled yourself from cassettes (tapes) ? Some Orics (like mine) can be quite picky/sensitive to the signal... I myselfhad many problems when trying to load files sampled at 11 kHz, and I had much better results with...

Thanks for the input, it's good news then if it can build on macOS and Linux! I was unaware that Mono allowed compatibility for GUI applications I thought it only catered for Console apps, like .Net core ! So thanks for clarifying this, as I said I know little about .Net especially about the latest ...

HI DBug, I watched the first two episodes of this "Pimp My Game" Youtube series of yours, and found them really interesting though I personally would just prefer articles as I'm more the "reading type" than the "watching type" for this kind of thing. The problem I have with videos is they take a lon...

Hi NekoNoNiaow and thanks for your interest! The project compiles and builds OK, and the produced executable works fine. I just need to have a look at the installation script (it uses the Nullsoft installer) to see if I can produce an installation package (.msi or .exe) though this is purely cosmeti...

Here is a quick list of the welcome changes/additions I noted so far in Oric Explorer (compared to the interim 2.0 released circa 2014/2015): - it is now possible to tell oric Explorer to search tapes/disks in subfolders of the chosen directory (we were really missing this!) - new dark theme (love i...

Hello guys, I have good news and bad news for you concerning Oric Explorer by Scott Davies... I'll start with the bad news... About a week ago, I sent a email to Scott about the current state of development of Oric Explorer, because it had been more than 2 years since he removed the tool from the do...

Ah, thanks iss for going into it a little deeper. I did question myself about the "size of the pipe", how it was possible to ffed many hundreds of milliamps just over one little wire, and I have to say sometimes it must not be enough as there are cases where my Oric won't boot on first try, so maybe...

I think normally you can't power Oric with the ribbon cable. This is original Microdisc controller - pin 33 on the ribbon connector is not connected to +5V track. Yes, it looks like it's manually cut, but it is not.m1.jpg and here is again an original Microdisc 'last generation' - pin 33 has nothin...
