Anyone know what that's like? Thanks.

Last post by Ronald J. Hall - 10-09-2024, 17:37:20

The Midwest Vintage Computer Fair for 2024, located just outside of Chicago, IL was this last weekend and it was awesome!

SouthernAmis has a message thread going with lots of great pictures:

The Atari presence this year was at least twice as big as the previous two
VCF's that I attended.

Enjoy...!

News / Re: New AGI version of Kings Q...

Last post by Ronald J. Hall - 04-09-2024, 07:11:26

I meant that putting all game files in some folder on hard disk will not work.
Stays not for my HAG2 adaptation, of course - what uses Virtual Floppy A: for game run .

Oh, my bad - I misunderstood what you were saying.

BTW, I went back and using " * " does exit the game cleanly and returns to the desktop.

Thanks much.

Sorry if it's the wrong place, just wanted to report about Killing game show

Extensively tested either with trainer/no trainer. The trainer was mostly used to help me add annotations on the maps (where the shaped keys are set, among other things). I used the water freezer & infinite energy for that - rare & minors bugs may occur at times, but nothing serious (i think it's noraml in some ways). Bug free when playing whithout using the trainer  .

exellent job i'd say 

As for the game, i think it has a lot of nice touches but the timer wasn't neccessary for me (it tends to ruin the gameplay in fact). Somehow I got used to it, and in the end i was ok with it. So not sure what to think anymore

It's mainly a game of 'try & replay'. The realisation is great, even the sfx are not too dull (rare for psygnosis).

voila, you can add a 'C' on the table for this game (this very sentence alone should have done just the job actually  )


cheers for the patch !
