what we playing for April

@saimo

thanks for the story/background of RATW

@geennaam

thanks it's awesome to have new drivers for new hardware for OS4.1

@davec555

This happened to me twice in the past 12 years. The 2nd time it was a bad CMOS battery and the first time I had do this technique below which ended up helping a few other users over at the Hyperion support site as well so hopefully it might work for you too;

-Turn off power to PSU.
-Remove plug from PSU.
-Remove power connector from the motherboard.
-Take out one RAM card leaving only one to the right of the PA6T CPU (i.e. 3rd slot from the left).
-While the RAM card is out check the slots 2 & 3 for dust build up (the CPU fan blows dust onto them) and use a small clean brush to remove it.
-Plug power connector back on to the motherboard.
-Connect PSU power & switch on PSU.
-Turn on X1000.
-If the X1000 boots up to Workbench, press and hold the power button for 3-5 seconds & it should shut off.

@afxgroup

Thanks

after quite a while of playing this is the proudest lowest 'high score' ever

any way to make this full screen so mouse movement isn't hindered by the window ?

@afxgroup

Ah cool thanks

@afxgroup

It has to be run on OS4.1

@levellord

ah yes my wife reminds me 'too often' about wanting to upgrade a floor in the house and I'm definitely not looking forward to actually doing it

denis2342 over at amiga.org has fixed some bugs and added a few cool changes to Rogue as noted below

bugfixes:
compatible with fastmem now
rogue -s now can return to the shell
scroll of wild magic is now immune to potion of discernment (clearly the developers wanted it this way)
fixed the three typos (thuderclaps, missle and instructiuons)
scroll of wild magic is now shown with its name after declining to use it
if you identify an item where you have two of it (or more) all item descriptions get updated.
setting the macro now works (shift-f)
scroll names do not end with a space anymore
update screen titlebar after restoring a game to show rank and stuff
fixed creation of gold in _create_obj (wizard mode only)
the ability to see the invisible actually works now

changes:
if the Rogue.Char file is missing the game still works (try this!
show_map and show_passages code is now reconnected (wizard mode only)
food_left and show_inpack is added (wizard mode only)
fastmode now has a small pause added so you can still see the player
bitmap handling now uses only 4 big memory allocations and not 288 small ones
print actual score with color in topten list (seems only to work in v40)
reactivated the beep function
added the shortcuts to the command menu
hiding strength,maxhp and xp in the highscore file (can be overwritten by long names)
limited the repeat count to 99

@ VooDoo

c'mon seriously you got a trillion points on a game where you had to click a mouse key 50 quadrillion times at a slow and very steady pace for literally half a day and zero complaints

ya gotta get past the first few levels and then it's crazy fast especially when you get more balls on the screen...music is great and love the laser beam power which gives it another element
