I'm going to start looking at alternative solutions this month. I'm leaning towards a virtual server or cloud solution for the forums as they have come a long way in the last 10 years and you get a...
It's far harder to create disk images on a real Amiga. The Greaseweazle and Kryoflux both make low level disk images so don't need to even read the disk format. This means you can backup and image...
Ubiquiti products have been getting some great reviews recently. Definitely would buy their products in the future.
Downloading 80GB that fast really is something isn't it.
Problem I have...
Using it to use disks on a daily basis isn't really the main point of it though. It's more for archival of existing disks for preservation. That's what I use my Kryoflux for.
But I'm...
Various versions of the Greaseweazle adapter have been around for a long time. It's a floppy drive interface similar to the Kryoflux I've owned for years. It's original idea was to read and write...
I'm still not sure what is causing this issue. I've not been able to get the site to load for days until now. I've looked through server logs but there isn't much to indicate other than the...
I couldn't get the forum to load at all this weekend until now. Just returning a 503 error. Main site would still load but that was taking time to initially respond.
Think this server is on...
The latest book by Bitmap Books, titled: "N64: A VISUAL COMPENDIUM" has just been released and I received my copy on the day of release last week.
This is a holding page. I will take some...
@DC. He might not be able to see that post.
I don't actually know what caused it. The forums have been slow to initially load for a few weeks. But once loaded seen to work ok and navigating...
Fair enough. The fixed camera angles and awkward character controls of the first game were on purpose to make you panic not and get disorientated when being attacked, and that worked. Although...
I'm a bit surprised. I thought you would have played one of them. Both RE and SH are puzzle adventure games at their core.
RE is more traditional horror with a lot of shooting zombies and...
I know you like your horror films. You really need to play Silent Hill at some point. They are currently remaking Silent Hill 2 so that would be a great opportunity to try one of them when it...
Are there games you wish they would remake?
For me I don't get why they skipped Resident Evil 1 when they started to do the remakes. The first game would be brilliant with the game game engine. ...
That is a very good point about risks vs just rereleasing a remaster of a known well performing game. And the larger a game company becomes the more they will always head in that direction.
I...
Paul Vince (Amiga Game Selector developer) has just released a new version of his WHDLoad download tool. This tool downloads Retroplay's WHDLoad archives for you from the Turran file server. It's...
There is a type of processor that works in very much the same way as the human brain, called the NPU or Neural Processing Unit. The NPU is made up of countless numbers of nerve cells and synapses...
Should a remake or remaster just deliver the same game so people can play it on newer systems? GT5 f.ex.
Or should they expand on the original story and ideas a d deliver a game based on the...
With this current generation of games consoles and PCs we have seen a huge percentage of releases as remakes or remasters of older existing titles. In fact in 2023 90% of the highest rated games...
I'm also not sure EE and BT will merge and the EE brand will take over. Do you have any links about this? BT have owned EE for years.
Since upgrading to full fibre my package has been a...
Ok that link is showing my address can get 1.6Gb down 115Mb up. Its about the same as I'm paying now on BT.
But do I need it faster then I currently have which is about 1Gb? My home network...
Possible, but when others like Steam and the PS5 can pull updates down at full speed I'm not so sure.
EE are offering 1.6 through BT/Openreach/Wholesale.... In fact, this is upping to 1.8G sometime real soon with concerns that 2.5G platform will not have the bandwidth, let alone the future plans of...
AFAIK there is no contention with full fibre and no bandwidth throttled at certain times or certain types of data. At least BT have always clearly stated they don't for the whole time I've been...
Who are you getting full fibre with? Obviously faster than openreach.
The Tron 3D one was quite cool. I remember having to move around the room to fund enough might to see what was going on. Never owned one but a friebd used to have loads of the standalone Tomy and...
