#amstradcpc464 — Public Fediverse posts

I learned how to make variable fonts, and updated my CPC 464 font to support it. You can chose form Modes 0, 1 or 2, or anything in between. 😁

I updated my CPC464 font to version 2.0!
https://codeberg.org/Dmian/font-cpc464
This versions has a different license (SIL Open Font License, but the previous versions are still included with their original licenses), adds two new widths (Expanded, called "Mode 0" and Condensed or "Mode 2", that are added to the Regular "Mode 1") and a UFO source is included.
Hope you enjoy it! ☺️

I received a box of retrocomputing documentation from @stevanikof, only some of which is already up on archive.org. I aim to fix that!

Here are the spec sheets and a user guide for two #amstradcpc464 add-on boards, the HoneySoft Limited HS-RX1 ROM Expansion Card and the HS-P1 Parallel and Centronics Expansion Card.

Let me say that:

Am now watching playthroughs of 8 bit games which thwarted me as a child but whose game environments have long stuck with me.
I did like a good forced perspective romp back in the day, this one you played a cute little robot trying to keep the sleeping crew of a space ark alive.

Part 4 of ups n downs of retro hardware

Oh and i managed to source some new keycaps for my #amstradcpc464
So its looking complete now.

Apart 3 keys not working now. Hoping its just a slipped key mat when i put it back together.

But day im having with tech im definitely not taking it apart until tomorrow. Gonna play a little ranarama on it to chill instead

I thought I'd share a couple of my early #retrogaming contributions from 1985 or so. I worked on both of these after high school, when I was renting a room in my friend Paul's house. Paul did most of the coding while I did the graphics.

I'm particularly happy with the sprite drop effect in The Key Factor which I lovingly borrowed from an Atari game called DropZone 😇

Unsoldered the BASIC ROM from this #AmstradCPC464 to pop in a new one to make it a 6128 but dang - wrong ROM image. :( #retrocomputing

I’ve an #AmstradCPC464 #retrocomputer. Is there a way to use external ROMs to update BASIC to 1.1 and so get access to ROMs 7..15? If so, what ROM images in what slots? (I have a DD5 so effectively have extra RAM and Amsdos ROMs).

Hi everyone,
I'm completely #newhere in the fediverse and wanted to let you know there is a new "system" out there (lave is a planet from my favourite computer game "elite", first played on an #amstradcpc464 back in the 80s, later on an #amiga500 - but in these heartless times I changed my background picture to pluto...).
That said, I'm interested in #astronomy, #engineering, #startrek, #perryrhodan, #linux (especially #manjarolinux), #learningfrench and other languages, (old) #computers, #reading, #hiking, #cycling, #traveling and exploring (strange) new worlds.
Let's explore this world together, #peace and #respect fully 🖖​

Hey les geeks, venu chercher ma moman pour l'emmener demain passer quelques jours chez oim, je retrouve ma chambre d'enfants où il reste quelques vestiges. #amstradCPC464
