    SCUMMVM and MT32 Roland/Timidity Support

    If the Amiga can do MT32 midi stuff in the Sierra games, etc then i don't see that the Pandora is any less powerful (as it emulates the Amiga quite well, we know that not to be the case). The Amiga didn't have a serial/midi dedicated co-processor that might have given it nearly CPU free midi...

    Tales of Gorluth 2. Amiga homebrew game.

    Can't see the site from work: How much is it? And is backbone really good for creating games? Most "game creator" kit efforts are usually fun diversions but usually not of the calibre that I'd pay for, IMHO. Feel free to correct me if you have great examples of killer games made with a game...

    Retro consoles and memories.

    I had one of those, sold it on Ebay to fund the buying of a new one, ended up getting a Ericsson MC-218 which had the lcd cable already fixed. Still use it from time to time. Love my Psion 5MX/MC-218, I wrote so many of my Open University assignments on the train/lunch table with them...

    Been very stupid guys & would appreciate if folk would hear me out

    It was probably something innocent like: Her: Would really like to go and see Charli XCX at her gig next month. All my friends are going. Him: What's stopping you then? Her: Oh, my dad says it's on a week night and my friends are travelling back by Tube and he thinks it's not safe at that...

    Been very stupid guys & would appreciate if folk would hear me out

    Oh well. Listen, you live and learn. To be honest, if you're anything more than five or so years older than her, then accepting the facebook friend request was probably a bit silly.The trouble with teenagers (and sometimes people in their early twenties, I have found) is that although sometimes...

    Shenmue 3 Kickstarter has begun

    Yes, but in this case (SONY's point) Shenmue II on DC was japanese only with English subs for the PAL release. It was only the Xbox version that had a crappy English dub I think.

    Microsoft XBOX ONE

    Of course, though, only IP's that are still in license or wholly owned by the publisher, can have consent given. Anything that has a story/character/universe from some other IP owner (any of the superhero games for example, or crossovers like MvC) will probably not happen. Trying to think of a...

    Shenmue 3 Kickstarter has begun

    yeah, nothing wrong with that. Run it in 60hz or VGA mode and what's the difference?

    Microsoft XBOX ONE

    Yeah, providing they have an Xbox 360 API implementation for the XBONE, then the publisher could recompile the source code and it should work. Of course, it will be loads more work than that, they effectively have to repackage the game, art assets and code, plus probably some endian-ness issues...

    Nintendo Switch

    Heh, that's pretty cool. I once met Jim Khale who worked on PowerPC line used for Nintendo Gamecube, Wii, Xbox 360 etc. He gave a lecture and spoke about the Cell design and working with Sony. It was cool as I was the only one with a game developer background (I now work for a Bank) and we hung...

    Witcher 3 ?

    I absolutely love the Witcher 2 (so much so, I bought and read some of the books), I really, really want the Witcher 3, but I have to finish my degree final year project and have lost enough time from that to personal matters (my father became very ill in January and died three weeks ago) that I...

    Release gdash (Boulder Dash-like)

    Yeah, it was wishful thinking, but there you go! ptitSeb (who is prolific in his output) I could understand, but with all with what ED has on, couldn't believe I got ninja'd by him!  :blink:

    Release gdash (Boulder Dash-like)

    Thanks for this ED. gDash was my secret -  I had plans to do a port of this as a first project, once my studies were finished in September! You beat me to it, though, so well done. It' s a good clone, too.

    [Cancelled] Aluminium cases are NOT being made!

    I agree with pmprog. IDV has tried to do something new and difficult with a new piece of factory equipment. If you see in post #358 he has provided a quite detailed set of reasons why the delays are occurring. He provides more detail in #306, #251 and #240. Most of us are not from a...

    The MIST FPGA

    Thanks for the reply. I think the price is good, but would I really use it? I could buy a CubieBoard A90 or ODroid for the same amount.... hmmm decisions, Edit: Sod it, I'm going to get one! Just need to clear some space and raise a little cash. Watch this space!

    The MIST FPGA

    Cool. One more quick question, does the version in your shop have the midi interface built in? And does the price in the shop and postage have the VAT on it?

    Nintendo 3DS

    Well, my new 3DS XL turned up and I didn't have too much time to play with it. The download speeds are definitely quicker (who' d of thunk it) and the new 3d is much better to my eyes. The colour (metallic blue) is nice, but glossy surfaces are a smear and fingerprint magnet, so I'm not a fan...
