It's only FOUR WEEKS to go until RetroFest. Our exhibitors are slaving away to get their machines ready - and what better way to test them than displaying our logo! Tickets are selling fast, so we recommend buy one in advance if you can - retrofest.uk/tickets.php

Thanks to everyone who came along last night (or joined on Zoom) It was great to share my progress so far and to discuss ideas for future development.
If you do encounter any bugs or odd behaviour, let me know on here or file an issue at github.com/pdjstone/archimed…

Running #RISCOS on my #SteamDeck using #RPCEmu
Gets about 300 MIPS and Starfighter 3000 seems fully playable.
Of course works best with a keyboard and mouse plugged in.

Arculator 2.1 has been released featuring support for emulating an A4 or prototype A500 as well as support for emulating various podules including the PC Card podule.
So you can now run Windows 3.11 inside RISC OS 3.11 on an emulated A5000, for example.

RT if that prospect horrifies you.

One of the first projects I worked on at Acorn (in 1996) was PhotoQV, software for Casio's early digital cameras. I just discovered a few test videos of the Acorn offices as I was developing the time-lapse functionality.
