It has Amiga version/conversion too.I too would like to see this. The Amiga version requires an 020+ processor and the MegaCD version needs a 2nd 68000. That said, enthusiasts have set about making AI analyse the code. A commented disassembly of the Amiga version will be available shortly.
In the meantime two developers have each independently ported Ambermoon to the STe and Falcon

Rules and announcements / Server move
Last post by msolajic - 30-10-2026, 12:18:51Dear members,
starting November 5th, 2026, 10:00 UTC, the forum (and the entire website) will be gradually moved to a new server. During this time, website sections and the forum might be inacessible.
I have to rework the directory structure on the host during the move, and cannot use automated tools - everything has to be done manually.
I expect this process to be finished until November 10th, 2026.
Sorry for any inconvenience,
Marko,
Administrator

Oh, I'd love to see Dungeon Master 2 for the ST (and not Chaos Strikes Back - already have that one)!

Last post by Petari - 13-10-2026, 10:08:19 Yes, new games/conversions for our old Ataris still are done, under work. Although I'm not sure that ST(E) is good for some complexer 3D games. And, of course I will not deal with doing hard disk adapts of new games, as they are still sold. And many of them can work from hard disk, or now rather SD cards.
There is one what I would like to see: Dungeon Master 2. It has Amiga version/conversion too.

News / Lots of new games...
Last post by Ronald J. Hall - 07-10-2026, 18:05:50Has everyone been watching the amazing number of new games/conversions coming
out for the ST, STe, Mega STe, Falcon 030 and TT030 lately?
There's been a lot of activity.
I'm now playing DOOM, Flashback, Command & Conquer, Dune II, and quite a few
more on my Mega STe and my modified STacy.
AI is being used though, from some to a lot...but it seems to work. I've got
mixed feelings on AI use in game coding myself. On one hand, it seems a little
bit like cheating - on the other hand, it seems like just another tool to help.

Last post by Petari - 02-09-2026, 12:41:07Thread continues, writing stoopid things continues ...
Sure, some things are not so easy to understand, especially for people not knowing, understand proper terminology. Is there other way ? I don't think so. Whole hard disk concept is not so easy, and it is result of many years experience - but it was really many years ago, and it is real shame that some 40 years later people comes with really silly ideas, explanations. For the end: it is already solved, and in multiple ways. What is not solved is that people listen to assholes who share lies and don't care for facts, details, truth - only for those from their circle, crew, nation, social group, class. Grow up humankind, or we will have really bad times .

Hardware / Re: ACSI2STM help with P.Putni...
Last post by Petari - 01-09-2026, 17:56:48That's with Strict is something what most, even experienced users did not know.
EmuTOS is not good for playing Atari ST(E) games. It has some solutions which make it more like modern OS-es, but Atari ST(E) SW was written many-many years ago, and to be compatible with TOS what was then available.
So, better use regular TOS versions, and 1.62 is pretty good.
Same stays for so called GemDrive - although percentage of games working with it is better than with EmuTOS . Yes, write me e-mail to address petari@8bitchip.info .
