Re: 24 of April. AtmoStrat was born

Beautiful! I'll take 2! No, 3! :)

(Wondering what to do with my old Telestrat now..)

BTW, I don't see MIDI on that prototype! :P

Re: Gamebase Oric V3.0

What is such a delight for me is going through archives like this and realizing that this is a collection of programs I would have, quite literally, sweated in passion, to type in and then .. run. And that ol' janx feeling returns, the delight of *finishing* the maneuver required to load up the .BAS...

Re: Gamebase Oric V3.0

Love this release, there are some quirky gems in this package .. most interesting game of the bunch so far (for me anyway) is EATIE SWEETIE from the CZES.DSK .. its hilariously lame (don't touch the wall), but surprisingly playable if you get into it .. ;) Well, anyway, its really fun going through ...

Re: Oricurtron and Euphoric with Modem.dsk and RS232

Do you have the machines set up with a Windows terminal, and the chars are received that way across the link, first? This should be verified. Apropros serial i/o on Oric, I'd love to have working MIDI, which would give a rudimentary networking protocol as well, sufficient to the Oric's needs - i.e. ...

Any chance for a non-.doc version of this?

Re: Next Cumulus batch

I'd be okay with a MicroSD, but its easier to give the kids a normal SD card to swap in and out of the Cumulus for an Atmos session, so something to consider..

Re: Replic'Oric

I would definitely love to see a NewOric be made and would happily get involved in the hardware purchase - its a very cool idea! Imagine if we could get networking in there as well - all the while continuing to support the old Oric software too. Wow, mind-boggling great idea.

Re: The Hunt For Broken Stuff

I logged out, then logged back in again. It seems that things work now - i.e. it remembers me when I re-visit after a small pause, but the same problem occurs as previously - when I hit "View Active Posts", nothing shows up (even though for example this thread is active, as is another..) I...

Re: The Hunt For Broken Stuff

Do you guys click the links in the notification messages that get sent if you've subscribed to the forum? Because that may be one thing I'm doing differently to you - I have subscribed to the forums so that any time there's a new message I get a mail about it, then I click the link. No matter what I...

Re: The Hunt For Broken Stuff

Here's what I found: http://space1999.defence-force.org/ is missing its background. http://oric30years.defence-force.org/ as well (I think) Actually I think all the (games).defence-force.org are missing their backgrounds - Stormlord, Oricium, etc. http://www.defence-force.org/index?page=games Doesn'...

Re: Major Defence-force structural update

Well done on navigating the stormy waters of Internet-site maintenance. Is there supposed to be a difference between defence-force.org and defence-force.com? At the moment I'm seeing links to the .com, but everywhere else is .org and there seems to be some IMG references pointing into la-la-land, me...
