 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |

PC3_DOOM.zip Flash the firmware onto the Pico Computer 3, and copy the `doom1.wad` file onto an SD card. Now you're ready to play!  https://github.com/rh1tech/frank-doom Why do we need AI when we still test hardware by running DOOM?  |

cool! we must do that in mmbasic. I changed peters demo for ray to create a little fps shooter and I am working on it. the ray command does not have all the features of the doom1 engine but that does not matter... |

by the way: ray is on my cmm2 much faster than on picomite. at the resolution 640x480 it is nearlay smooth. |

Can you also make a version for HERETIC? It runs on Chocolate DOOM, for example. HERETIC runs on the same engine as DOOM... That would be great! Frank |

Hi Volhout, Yes, I know Mikhail from Greece through the Murmulator group on Telegram. I actually got *Doom* from him for porting purposes. I also reached out to him regarding *Heretic* to add support for a USB mouse; he said he’d take a look. Once it’s ready, we’ll post it here. And since I only have electricity for about 3 hours a day, I’ve been tinkering with PicoMite MMBasic in the meantime. |

I hope this war is over soon. You must be so tired of it. Are you running of batteries during outages ? Pico can run quite a while from a power bank. But the monitor will draw much more. I wish you and your people strength to keep living. Volhout P.S. I think it is Eisenhower who said this: War is millions of people, who don't know each other, killing each other. Just because of 2 people that know each other, and who are not killing the other. PicomiteVGA PETSCII ROBOTS |

 In this situation, people acquire a great many things that are unnecessary in ordinary, peacetime life. |

That's a meaty animal! :) A lot of monitors and TVs use a power brick now, which often has a 12V output. That sort can be run directly from a battery (well, a fuse is a good idea...) and it's more energy efficient than using an inverter. It's not as impressive a solution though. :) Mick Zilog Inside! nascom.info for Nascom & Gemini |

Yes, that’s almost certainly possible; let’s see—maybe something can be done about it later... In the meantime, go ahead and play Wolfenstein 3D. Wolf_3D_PC3.zip https://github.com/rh1tech/frank-wolf3d  |
