    Sounds good, hope it’s all working still. 😝

    I’ve just been building a workshop too which has a tiny 7ft x 7ft (2.1m x 2.1m) den at the end of it for my techie toys. Just run in 10 network points and 12 power sockets! Hope to have my Atari’s in there later this year. 👍

    Nothing yet. It has been on the back burner for a while. It is still in a box from my last move and moving again in a couple of week, hopefully for the last time. Once settled in the new house and get my workbench area set up, will be busting it back out!!

    Did you manage to get the Falcon repaired in the end?! Meant to ask the other decade 🙂

    I have always been interested in an ST from the 80s forward. Lately I have renewed my lust for retro hardware. It started a couple of years ago and I collected all the Intellivision equipment and games. Then I picked up my Atari 8-bit collecting again and now I have started my first ST experience by buying this:

    Just an observation ... The keyboard looks like the Mega ST keyboard and not the one for Mega STEs? Anyhow it does the same job!

    I had a Mega STE but swapped it for a Falcon030 in about 1995! :)

    Got an email from Rodolphe:

     

     

    I emailed Willy and it won't be available for a while but he's keeping emails and will publicise when it's ready:

     

     

    It will be 100% electrical compatible with CT63 with integrated ctcm, completely new layout, bigger, improved mechanical stability, and many more ,)
    Please be patient. It will be delayed c 2 months.
    When it will be ready i will announce this everywhere. ;)

    I had some emails with Rodolphe a few months and he mentioned there was a deal in the pipeline with a Danish guy who would produce 100 of the new style CT60e.

     

    CT60e = CT60 + CTCM integrated - F30 booster + new dimensions (CPU no more under the keyboard).

     

    Rodolphe would then get some cash to develop a new CTX60 card based on CT63 and to include Super Videl on the board too.

    As I said on Atari-Forum that Dan Wilga had replied to me last year when i asked if the main titles that Gribnif sold could be released as Freeware or Donationware.

    Dan Wilga was interested in the latter and said he had a near complete new update of Geneva which was unreleased.

    He said he would get out his TT and check out the position and what he could do as a final version, then his hard disk died.

    I've not heard anything more since May last year. :(

    I've emailed him every 3 months too, so it's not looking promising. However I've not given up and have hope.

     

    He may of replied to my mail as I had dealt with him in a business capacity when I worked for Compo UK in the early 1990's and we sold the Gridnif products.

    Very cool to see. Hopefully I get a chance to try this on my Falcon and see how well it performs.

     

    I think you'll be pleasantly surprised!

    The last alpha release (at this time) v0.2 has included JagPad support plus lots of bug fixes.

     

    The development is progressing nicely and a few more bug fixes are in place for the 3rd update. Depending on feedback this may move the game from "alpha" in to a "beta" release.

    Douglas Little (the only developer) has a few surprises up his sleeve too, so it's worth watching the progress!

    Not sure if you're still interested in a Doom

     

    Hi!

    Pardon my ignorance (if any), but could someone point me to some Doom engine, so I can shoote'm a bit without watching a slideshow. icon_smile.gif

    Thanks!

    P.S. Have only 14M of RAM, no accelerators nor FPUs.

     

    Not sure if you're still interested in a Doom engine, but BadMooD has been released for the Falcon now.

    It's an alpha release, v02 was out the other night.

     

    It's fully playable Doom and runs at a decent frame rate, quite an achievement for a 14MB unaccelerated Falcon.

     

    See the official site for more info and a download link: http://devilsdoorbell.com

    I also have a 14 Mb Falcon with 20MHz bus + 50MHz DSP + CFlash.

    I also have a CT63 that hasn't been fitted yet. Shame on me.

     

    Going forward what will happen with this list? It would be good to "reach out" to these users in some way, maybe through a site like LinkedIn for Falcon owners!

    In case you've missed the news Douglas Little has released an 'alpha' version of BadMooD, a fully playable Doom conversion enhanced for Falcon030.


    You'll need the WAD file(s) from the original game but the BadMooD binary download is hosted here:




    The game requires a stock (unaccelerated) Falcon030 with 14 MB of RAM.


    As it's the first release there are some features to be implemented, some bugs and a wish list too!


    If you have programming or graphics experience and would like to help then let us know through the above website!

    Source will be released, but probably not for a month or two while things are tidied up.

    A BadMooD specific level with enhanced graphics is possible.


    See the download binary for more Readme information.
