Wants to play an old game, plans the proper PC for that, enjoys the process of building it and forgets about the game he wants to play in the first place.

In my eyes the 2nd best shooter on Atari STe and Amiga, Lethal Xcess, the successor of Wings of Death and on my wishlist for ages. The Jochen Hippel Sountrack is brilliant! Available as NOS for 30 bucks together with some nice books at Microzeit Publishing. 10 bucks off with my affiliate link: https://judge.me/ref/JM-RKY4X0J

The #amiga needs more RAM. My A500 Rev6a now has 1MB of Chip RAM and 1.5MB of Slow RAM. Plenty for Lotus and Chaos Engine. #retrocomputing #retrogaming #commodore #16bit

All the glory. The jumpers are not in a final state. At the end I decided to let the crystal chip manage the wavetable at 300h and the dedicated mpu401 manages the external midi at 330h.

A picogus on an OPTi495SX chipset works flawlessly in every tested game, (original) DOOM included. On an 8810PAIO chipset the majority runs, beside DOOM 1.9 and Raptor. @polpo

Playing around with the #PicoGUS 2.0 and it looks OK so far. Jack Jazzrabbit, 2nd Reality, Zone66, Epic Pinball, Blood and Duke Nukem and also Mod Master XT sound brilliant. Only Problem: Doom (v1.9) and Doom 2 (v1.9) freeze with this log. Not actual freezing. There is HDD noise every once in a while. Can someone please give some hints? 240,1,1,5,5 picogus v1.0.2 @polpo @root42

The Greaseweazle Project is done, time to prepare the next one on the list. I never had a GUS and probably will never have. But I will have quite some fun with the Orpheus and the PicoGUS. The test system is an AMD 486 DX4 100 with a UM8810PAIO and a rather slow PCI Graphics Card. It contains no HDD but a CF with Clicker in the caddy. Epic Pinball, Jazz Jackrabbit, 2nd Reality will land on the CF soon. Any more suggestions?

I admit, I am a Gotek Fan. But I learned to enjoy writing ADF and MSA Files to real DD floppies for my unmodified Atamigas. I use a Sony MPF-920 2HD Floppydrive and the Greaseweazle 4.1.
Todays mini project: put it in a sturdy enclosure.

I added a rear wing to my STE

It has a standard IDE Socket, 4MB RAM, TOS 1.06, Gotek with OLED and Rotary and a brand new Power Supply. What to pimp next?
