Ambermoon is a lost gem. Game is ambitious and well polished but unfortunately came out just as the developer (Thalion) was collapsing, leaving us with only the German language Amiga version officially released. Thankfully people have manag

How'd you get it stable on that? IME it tended to crash even more that regular 9x did.

How uncanny to find this thread right now, just a day after I had a bizarre case of sinus pain influencing my eyesight and dexterity somehow. Definitely something I should look into ASAP. Thank you Baader–Meinhof I suppose.

But Elon lies too, and frequently. Worse still, at least some his lies seem to be motivated by a childish need to score brownie points and/or worship from random internet users. His continuing claims of being a "top player" i

Originals (+ Cataclysm!) should run well via WINE. Remakes are prettier but the gameplay changes are a bit... controversial.

It fried mine, twice in a row. Lost the A600, which came with A1200 PSU, and then an A500 to a different PSU. Additionally, the second(ary) issue with A1200 PSU is it's barely strong enough to support the base hardware configuration an

Except the system was designed with a productivity display oriented RGB port that worked, and its main selling point was the hardware, not the games. My stock 1200 can output 1440x550 res and more, and it works just fine. Deluxe Paint, trac

But MegaDrive games don't look inherently better than OCS Amiga ones - and sound worse to boot. Compare Desert Strike or Battle Squadron which had a version for both systems. Maybe SNES was an improvement; the main advantage was the pr

I've had a stock A600 for over a decade, it was okay. Sure I had to run a ReloKick for some games but the OS was vastly superior to the awful blue-orange flat shading ugly 1.3 topaz font hell of A500. Sure A500+ existed but over here (

Also have a Dell 6410, it's a scrappy little thing. The brushed metal brick aesthetic is pleasing. It's probably time to go full linux on it.

Whatever makes you think they're able to drop a nuke? They have tried to threaten with that by running trials and the tally is two out of three times there was a catastrophic failure, of which one failure was in the silo itself.

That's kind of the niche Age of Wonders occupied, a civ-lite strategic layer and xcom-like tactical layer. Too bad 4 is hideously bland (I'll blame paradox and focus group testing for that)
