This is not a game so a new post. I used Didier Mequignon's Aniplayer and a tune kindly donated by 505 and I placed it on youtube. This is the
. 128Kbps Joint Stereo MP3.
Instead of Ataris I am always given old PCs. This time another 486 class machine. An AMD DX4/120Mhz with 16MB RAM, 1GB HD, S3 64V+ Trio graphics card and something that seems to be a Sound Blaster compatible audio card. The motherboard has 5(!) PCI slots and 3 ISA's.
Edit: Because I was puzzled by the colour (brown) and the location of the 5th PCI slot, I must conclude that it's a VESA local bus.
Hello,
It's been quite a long time since I last posted anything here. There is a good reason for that, I've been quite occupied with making websites and other IT related stuff. We've also spent quite a bit of time in creating our website from scratch. You can find it here: Mindsoft IT solutions .
Our english pages are still under construction but we are working on the translations. Either way you can get a feel of what we do.
What does this mean for my Atari stuff. Well things are getting
It's been over a few weeks since I decided to move over to Ubuntu from windows. I have a dual boot system but I booted on windows only twice. One time to check something in the hardware from a windows only program, and another to see if it still works. I think I can do all the things I want from that, at the moment at least. Unfortunately I didn't find something like dscaler in order to record videos for my youtube channel so I guess I'll have to learn mencoder. Avidemux seems to be a pretty go
As I promised some time ago, we have released the issue 4 of our free web based magazine. This time it features a lot of event reports, the unveilling of our new logo by Greyfox (whom we'd like to thank once again) and the usual view on the atari st scene and community. Also work has started on our 5th issue with some surprises. Hopefully I'll be able to let some of them sneak in as they are being completed.
As usual I should say what I have written, because this is a personal blog after all!
I just bought myself some new video recording hardware. An easycap dc60. After a few hours of fighting with windows 7 to install the proper drivers I am happy to report it works. Here's the first video...

For a more thorough review look at the next lowres, whenever that comes out!
Phew, after a 2 week delay we managed to pull another issue. As usual this webzine features a lot of demoscene content but also non sceners will find it interesting. It's hard to find highlights in this issue but let me tell you what I've done (yes I am lazy)
JagCF. Zerosquare and SCPCD talk to us about it.
Reboot. They explain their philosophy, their views on the jaguar and their plans to support the 16/32 machines.
Gemworld. What's new in applications and stuff for your Atari ST/TT/Fal
Well,
I finally got a PC 3 days ago. I still can't get used to it. So this small entry is to let you know that I'll probably be posting a few more vids on my youtube channel soon and I'll probably have a few more things to write here.
See ya
Version 0.4 of QEXTRACT. Some minor improvements in tar.gz handling and full source code included under the WTFPL version 2.
I should have mentioned that you need the files from the ARC folder in version 0.3. This is an update.
So, I guess you've all read (or haven't) the last issue of lowres. However the webzine isn't without its problems. First of all this blog suffered. Everything I might want to write here can be put there too. So how do I manage those two efforts? Secondly there's the problem that we want to extend the magazine to other non atari platforms, or even to atari platforms we know nothing about. Ny VCS knowledge for example is left somewhere in 1988 when I played Moon patrol and a couple of other games
Last week we released the second issue of lowres. This time it features twice the number of articles as the last issue and with CiH joining as a writer we get a lot more coverage of the demoscene. Highlights of this issue include: -A mini interview with Curt Vendel about the early days of the ST -An interview with Rygar about Lynx and it's 20 years -E-Jagfest, Xzentrix, Sundown and Alternative party reports-An interview with ggn of D-Bug about HD patches.So go and read it herehttp://lowresmag.wo
Well isn't this a surprise. The readers of this blog suddenly increased, very fast. It got 3000+ views in a few days. I wonder why...Anyway, this isn't why I am writing this. Most of my faithful readers must have missed me so here I am. Well, good news, my CT63 is working perfectly, so is my ethernec and so I am online from the falcon. Bad news, after being cursed by either the jaguar "vocal" community or Candy Candy fangirls (don't ask, I won't tell ) I lost my PC and laptop PC so my only onli
What happens when two Germans and a Greek meet in Dusseldorf (where the Germans pick up the Greek to get him to Outline in the Netherlands)? Well the idea of a new web 2.0 magazine is born. The Low Res Magazine, hosted on wordpress and visited over 1000 times since its publication 3 days ago.
It was a warm sunny day, the last one of a summer that had caused so much pain but somehow managed to fill our hearts with hope. In that spirit the team had joined IRC. We had the articles, we had the
It's been a day since Outline 09 ended and I already miss it. The organisers did a great job there and I'd like to thank all of them for the great time we had there. It was great! I've attached some pictures I took in this blog so take a sneak peek at how great it was to be there!
For a first post I will attempt to describe the process to get the falcon online or to an already established network with the use of a null modem cable. It took me 5 days to get it (almost) properly working and I write this in the hope that it won't take you that long.
So here we go!
Windows:
The first thing that you need to do is to change your null modem driver and create an incoming connection. This process is described here so I won't do it again. One thing to know though. When you
Thorn, Simonsunnyboy and I, decided to start a small gamedev compo for the fun of it. The game doesn't have to be from a coder, a text adventure written in a text adventure creator would be great.
Seeing that many people have some game idea they started working on in the past we thought of offering a chance to fame and glory if you decide to complete it. Like I said it doesn't have to be fancy or anything. Just fun for you!
Anyway, here's the link:

So, it was recently pointed out to me that I haven't updated this for quite sometime. So I started Winjam, put on some tunes from the sndh archive and here I am.
This has been a strange time for me, lots of obligations, lots of things to do, lots of things to think.. The worse is passed. But some of it will go on. Maybe from September I'll be more relaxed? We'll see.
So what have I been doing (Atari related)? Talking in #Atariscne in IRCnet, writting in forums, testing apps for the upcoming
I stumbled upon something really nice a few days ago. OL, of MyAES fame and one of the recipients of the Coldfire evaluation boards, has managed to run MiNT on Coldfire! You can read about it on his blog about GEM, GEM development and the Coldfire Atari clone. It is of course wonderful news about the future of the platform.
Looks like that Stimpy has perfected his NetusBee adaptor, an ethernet and usb adapter for any Atari with a cartridge port. In his web site you can find a video of usb in action. If I understood correctly his adapter is/will be priced at 60 pounds or 90 euros. Also I believe that Coda is working on usb drivers for various devices. I suggest that you contact Stimpy first before you press the "add to basket" button. Now all I have to do is collect some money and all my internet connection problems
