My old "scroll" game - BASIC program listing
-------------------------------------- Hello everybody, last weekend I dug up couple of Oric Tapes (real cassettes!) with MY OWN programs on it! Incredeably - they STILL "Cload"! Among the contest on these tapes I found my very-first "scroll game" that I wrote long time ago, usin...

HELLO 3D WORLD!
HELLO 3D WORLD! :) Who said that 3D generated landscape is impossible to have on Oric Atmos?! :) Well, with a little help from combining various software - almost everything is possible! Please have a look at these two demos of mine; The first one ("3DMOON.TAP") will take you to the ride o...

Re
Well, I was thinking that the detection of the speed of the (emulated) Oric CPU under Euphoric could be done in a rather-simple way... (Boy, was I wrong!! ) :) Of course, all Oric computers have their CPU at the same speed, but I use Euphoric on a several PC computers connected locally trough the LA...

It is the ULA who does the work of making it flash based on the attribute in the video memory, but that memory remains unchanged.

Re:
However I have tested it and could not get it to work properly. Line 0 (when Sync to tape in is selected in Euphoric's menu) seems to hang basic and I have to perform a warm reset to recover control. If we supress that line we fill the memory block with 0's and 1's as expected, but we get one or tw...

Re:
Detecting Sync might be possible in basic. Someone will need to test this code and report the results (whats in memory between #b400 and #b4ff) before we can continue. My current system is running dog slow and keeps crashing in basic :P 6 REM Re: Between #b400 and #b4ff all values are "1"...

How to detect the Oric's CPU speed from within the BASIC prg
Hello, I am wondering is it possible to check the speed of the Oric's CPU from WITHIN the Basic program? I am thinking of the following: Try to execute this short Basic program: PRINT@2,2;CHR$(140);"A":PRINT:PRINT:PRINT SCRN(3,2) This will give you a "flashing" letter "A&quo...

Re: How to change the shape of the cursor?
Yes it is possible ! But as far as I remember (so I can be very wrong !), you will not be able to use any shape. The only thing you can do is to setup the "height" of the cursor, thus sticking with a rectangular shape. With a heigth of 1, for instance, you will get a "lower-line"...

How to change the shape of the cursor?
Hello, I am wondering is it possible to change the shape of the Oric's cursor? I know what, and how to "poke" in order to change the /example/ the appearance of the letter "A", but is it possible to "poke" in order to change the Oric's cursor from it's basic square-shap...

Re:
Hello, A couple years ago I have used a simple PrintScreen option under Euphoric that saves a BMP file of the window under Euphoric on to Hard drive, and then used Adobe Premiere to convert the series of BMP's into standard AVI file, that needed NO codex (it could be viewed even on Win95!) It is a s...
