Re: Forum performance issues

The server is now running at the opposite side of the world from where it was! Performance is restored, there may be some last tweaks the coming period. Thanks again to at67 for taking over managing the forum.

Re: Forum performance issues

Re: Forum performance issues

Forum performance issues

You might encounter some difficulties with the forum site/main site. Especially when automated queries are made (bots) the current system is unable to cope with the amount of requests and will throw server errors.

Re: New Gigatron in Russia

The clock speed will not change the edge of the video, it will only make the Gigatron spit out the signal slower or faster. The more it deviates from 6.25MHz, the more trouble it will give the TV/monitor to sync to the image. But when sync fails, you will get nothing, not just part of the image. Whe...

Re: Manic Miner Game Release 1

Here is the first release of Manic Miner written by Mathew Smith in 1983 for the Spectrum. It requires a 64k Gigatron. Wonderful! Many congrats, it's been a journey I believe :-) Unfortunately I haven't got a Gigatron here with the correct specs. Maybe somebody can upload a video of the gameplay?
