Re: Discord Channel?

People have asked about this before. ;) I guess having a discord is the cool thing of late, but it is yet another thing that would have to be monitored. I feel a forum essentially accomplishes the same thing. Maybe I'm a little old school in that regard. I've joined a few discords over the years, an...

Re: Not a software issue - but games claiming to need real hardware run fine?

Actually, it was flagged because VirtualBox would not handle its mouse input correctly. It was too sensitive and unplayable as were some of the first person shooters. I'm glad you've had success though with vmware. It may turn out that my flagging does not apply for it. Once I upgrade my main drive ...

Re: Shutting down or restarting hangs system

Sorry you're having issues. Which game was it that caused your monitor to freak out? We can find and delete the config, and then the game will probably reset and launch in windowed mode where you can set the resolution. Also note that there are many games that fail because it is required that they r...

Re: Is the Commodore OS the Future of Retro Computing or Just a Nostalgic Dream?

I certainly am not critiquing you for responding, more bemused at the power of AI. There have been a spate of posts like this on the forum of late that's al...

Re: Commodore OS Suggestions.

The playing of random songs is a novel idea.
Easy enough to implement some time after next update.

If you want to hear the installation music the command is:

Code: Select all

LOAD "RADIO"
Also you can go through the start jingles with:

Code: Select all

LOAD "JINGLE"
but of course they time out.
