Which Oric character to use for a mural?

Hi, I'm setting up to do some artwork/mural at the Retro Gaming Museum here in Vienna, Austria (https://gamingmuseum.at/) and I would like to put a sprite up above the Atmos in our display, to represent the Oric section. Which character would you use to represent the Oric, which is unique to the Ori...

Re: Happy New Year!

Wishing you all a Grand New Year and Hope for what the year holds. Some good news: we have introduced 45,000 people to retro-computing at our museum here in Vienna since we opened a few months ago, and that is a lot of Austrians (and many, many tourists) seeing the Oric Atmos in real action for the ...

Re: Whither TANSOFT ORICMON?

Okay after a few hours of hacking with it, I'm finding it to be a perfectly cromulant means of doing some assembly on the Oric, and also importantly, disassembly (with the ROM 1.1 Disassembly PDF at hand on a second monitor too, of course..) I can't stress how awesome it is to have docs and this too...

Re: Whither TANSOFT ORICMON?

Just reporting in .. sorry for the spam .. well the version from TOCSEC doesn't seem to work - I follow the instructions in the manual and all I get is "SYNTAX ERROR" .. However, Symoons' version DOES work and behaves as described in the user manual - so I will proceed with this version fo...

Re: Whither TANSOFT ORICMON?

Re: Whither TANSOFT ORICMON?

Just a followup, I tried the version of TANSOFT OricMon that is available in the TOCSEC archive from archive.org, and it doesn't seem to load... unless it takes a *long* time, which I don't think is the case .. seems to just be a bug. Anyone got the chops to inspect this .TAP file and see if there i...

Re: Whither ORICMON?

Always oricutron, and yes now I've confirmed that your version and the oric.org version both work, but the one I had on disk doesn't. Maybe I just goofed it.

Anyway, thanks for checking it Symoon ..

>motivated Well, I'm now a curator at the local Retro Computing museum here in Vienna, Austria, so these sorts of things are of immense interest to us - it provides much needed context for our visitors, and we are at risk - particularly in the Oric world - of these things falling into the hands of p...
