@damgentemp Happy birthday! I'll watch the video

It's my birthday today and it's been a tough few years. I made a video a while ago on an obscure 90s software that took a lot to finish. If you want you watch and leave a like? It ain't great, but completing it was important to keep me going through a tough time. 👇

@Commocore Dragon Wars. It's great, but I remember the sprites flickering in PAL. A fix is on my to do list, but since the list is almost as long as I'm slow – don't expect anything soon.

Guess which one is the cRPG game? There is only one! All bought recently but what I had in mind was to get this ONE for the future ?TOO MANY HOURS series. BTW. So happy to get Druid II, cool, huh? 😎 #c64 forever

@j_ljunggren @AlexMartinelle Link to demo (Harbinger): csdb.dk/release/?id=85…. Flamingo gives out his phone number in the part, so you can try to call him for a well deserved "hårtorksutskällning"😁

@AlexMartinelle That is Indeed my pixel work. What a shitty move to remove my signature though. :/ But it was pretty common to do that back in the days. Thanks for showing this scan. I vaguely remember seeing this in DMz.

BLUE HELI. By The Sarge, or JOL as I called myself back in the days. This is one of my first images I ever pixeled. It was made in 1986. The dithering technique leave much to be desired. Made with Koala Painter and a Tac-2 joystick. #c64 #commodore64 #retro #pixelart #art #blue

@PaulieHughes Zach was (is) a beast of a coder. Really got things done. I'm also surprised he didn't use one of his own plexors, yours might be more flexible? Would love to have a look at it.

Recovered source code for Imagine's C64 conversion of Konami's Typhoon, written by Zach Townsend. This one surprised me as it used my old sortless multiplexor.

@CommodoreBlog Hi!

How many of my followers will take two seconds of their time to say "Hi" in the comments to this tweet? Let's see if we can get "at Least" 5000 replies, don't let me down now, there's nearly 40K of you, maybe just maybe, we can go crazy and get a lot more? Don't be shy say hi!

@Commocore You can enable list by removing the first line in basic by typing 0 (enter). Protection run code is located in line 40080 and the check in line 40140. Happy hacking!

@phasework Yup, I know what you mean. I tried to edit it already, but listing is hidden as well. It's some sort of a trick so I just need to open monitor and check what sort of a trick is used there in the listing around $0801+. Lack of time, but I will try to do it or ask for help. Thx!

Preserving freshly bought Shard of Spring #cRPG for #c64 didn't go as expected. My XU1541 cable is not capable as there seem to be some fat track copy protection at track 35/36 and something funky at the start as well. At least game loads perfectly! Any Kryoflux users here?🤔

@Commocore I'm no expert when it comes to Kryoflux, but it looks like you're trying to make a .D64. For preservation purposes you should use .G64.

@tynemouthsw font and gfx suggests vic20 or zx81. hope i'm wrong :)

@abaeckst never. lsv is a national (and magic) treasure meant to be idolized and the benchmark for generations to come

If you were offered $1million dollars, but LSV and everything you knew about him was erased from history forever. Would you take the money?

@cmuratori what the hell are you talking about? both clang and gcc compiles faster than lightning (and borland).

Today I ran Turbo C++ 3.0 from 1992 in a DOSBox. It runs instantly, compiles instantly, steps instantly, syntax highlights instantly - even though DOSBox is emulating actual 386 speed. It's crazy how much modern software underdelivers :(

fixed some graphic bugs that's been haunting me for 30 years #bardstale #c64

@HewsonJoystick Great deal and a great read, (un)fortunately I bought it on release :)
