Mark Moxon will be joining the next meeting of the Wakefield RISC OS Computer Club (WROCC), which will take place on Wednesday, 7th October, to take the group on a tour of the various Acornsoft games he has taken a detailed look at, and into which he has hacked new features.
With Elite, for example, he has produced a teletext version of the game, one with anaglyph graphics (three dimensional with the aid of colour-filtered glasses), and a two player version. With Revs, on the other hand, he has added a track based on the Nurburgring, and he has morphed Lander into BigLander.
The meeting will kick off at 7:45pm, and like all WROCC meetings, it will be held online using the Zoom video conferencing system, allowing you to join from the comfort of your own home.
The only things you’ll need in order to do so are a system on which Zoom can be run, and the meeting credentials, which remain the same as previous meetings. That means if you’ve attended any recent monthly WROCC meetings you should already have them, but if not they can be obtained by contacting the group.
Although the meeting is open to any RISC OS user, regardless of WROCC membership status, it’s well worth supporting the group by joining, which costs just £10 per year, and you get the group’s self-titled monthly newsletter sent to your inbox as a PDF file, along with access to their online discussion forum.
You can also find recordings of previous meetings on YouTube, linked from the Meetings page on their website.
