    Case color

    Well, in the 90ies they may have looked futuristic, but nowadays ... they look like they're from the 90ies :P But I agree on having full-colored plastic and no paint. Like most gamepads or joysticks ... something that doesn't wear off like the silver color on the late Pandoras ...

    Amiga magazine - 880 Gamer

    Thanks for the bump, missed the first announcement. Wasn't sure about the idea at first, but after briefly reading through the first issue I really like it. A lot!

    Classic PC Games that have been ported to consoles.

    Sierra's NASCAR Racing has been ported to the PSX ... I tried it once but thought it was pretty bad. Something was very odd about the controls ... can't really remember what it was, just that it made it unplayable for me.

    [Ported Game] Duke Nukem 3D - EDuke32

    Haven't played it for a long time, so I just played through the first level in opengl and in software mode. Both worked fine, although some textures are strange in opengl. I prefer the software rendering anyway, if you don't use HRP it looks much better in general (in my opinion). And on the...

    Email clients making me sad... anyone solved issues?

    It has been a while since I last tried. I remember it behaved strangely on first start. I just tried again and it probably is more like what you have. I cannot import any calendars or edit the current one, all buttons are grayed out. But I have the .PND on a ext4 partition in ../pandora/apps/

    Email clients making me sad... anyone solved issues?

    Not sure that this is the only problem with the Lightning-PlugIn, because I tested it on an ext4 partition (Thunderbird PND) and it didn't work at all ... and also in Thunderbird under Slackware it is broken on the Pandora (which runs on an ext2 or ext4 partition, can't remember right now) Or I...

    Use the pandora as wifi hotspot?

    Not sure if the Pandora's WiFi is capable of it. I would probably set up an SD card to boot from (either Pandian or Slackware). You'll need to install hostapd and probably isc-dhcp-server (that's why I would boot from SD). This may already be all you need though ... you then have to create a...

    Release Epic Inventor

    ... strange, I could enter a name but as soon as the game started I couldn't move or exit the game. I could only do things with the mouse, so maybe I also lost the keyboard? Pandora-Button still worked though (that's how I managed to close it). When I tried again it worked fine though.

    Release VVVVVV - official full version

    Wow, it actually sounds quite good! Not sure if I would use it in the game, but maybe I'll buy it just because I like Heavy Metal and VVVVVV.

    Does the Pandora support Achievements and online high scores?

    I used to hate vi and used nano, but now that I'm used to vi I actually hate nano because it lacks all of those really usefull features. I prefer vim because I can't get used to exiting insert-mode before going up or down a line :P

    Does the Pandora support Achievements and online high scores?

    Linux has a pretty cool achievement system build in, which is also available on the Pandora. It is a bit hidden though, because it doesn't feature online statistics or anything like that. Everybody will be able to tell your current level pretty accurately though. It works like this:  whenever...

    Release ECWolf

    I remember that Pickle's port does only work with a very specific version of the .WL6 files. So even if you have a full version which works fine in DosBox the files may still fail to work with the port. There is some check which fails if the files are not the correct version, so if that's the...

    Release ECWolf

    ... actually the config is not saved. I have to set the keys again each time I start the game. There is a .cfg file in .../appdata/ecwolf/home/ecwolf/ ... not sure if it isn't used or if it is overwritten when the .PND is started?

    Soccer World Cup 2014 - Who are you rooting for?

    They still show some of the matches on large screens in public places here in Germany, and they still call it "public viewing" (even though there is no corpse). That's all I have to say about the soccer world cup :P

    The day the Pandora goes even more open

    I don't know ... you only need one or two agressive idealists who attack every port that could in princile be "free as in free-free" but is just "free" (it will also go the other way around of course: "why don't you use the GPU, it could run at 100 fps and now does only 15!") to make developers...

    Release ECWolf

    I just tried it, I like the additional features ECWolf offers (the map is just great). I also noticed the music stuttering in menu (1 GHz unit running stock speed), but in-game seems mostly fine. I didn't like the default controls though, I changed it to shoulder-buttons for "strafe L/R", (Y)...

    Release Ortho Robot

    This is a lovely game, and it plays great on the Pandora. Using touchscreen and DPad makes it feel like it was made for it. :) Too bad it only has 16 levels :( The ESC-Menu (while playing a level) seems half-broken, I can only read the "Back to Game" line, the other options are not visible...

    Release CG Madness

    The best Marble Madness Remake out there is "Rolling Madness 3D" http://www.lucaelia.com/games.php. I think binaries are only available for Windows, but the author says on the website "The 3D engine is based on OpenGL, SDL takes care of the interaction with the OS and FMOD is used for sound...

    Rainy day - Game project. A practical approach to complete it.

    I always wondered what happened with this game. It looked awsome in the previews and I always thought that this is the kind of project the Pandora  needs. Not sure, but at the time it sounded like this would be a Pandora exclusive gfame? Or at least Pandora first, rest later. I won't be able to...

    WolfenDOOM

    I played it using Cocoa-DOOM. Menu music is still Doom, but in-game is fine. I did not play through to the end though. Not sure if there also was a problem with the text-sequences ...
