Ha har! I am still alive - no change over the last 3 months since I've been on steroids, so a quick visit.

I forgot all about this thread - 62 now and still dying!

Merry Christmas everyone!

Hi all, Just got the news today that I have terminal lung cancer. I still have a few tests to do, but other than that it's goodbye. Thanks to all the friends (and enemies!) that I found over the years playing this game, and I wish you and your families all the best for the future. I will not be post...

I have several Pi's - if I get time I will look at it. Remember I originally built the full source code tool train for Linux, so if my 61 year brain can remember, it should be straight forward - the code is fairly harmless mow on modern machines.

Everybody forgets the OSS. Oh well.

When I visit here, home page loads fine but then clicking any sub-forum hangs: Service Unavailable The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems.

Hi my friend, Merry Xmas to you and family too.

I really haven't seen {virtually] Pepper or Parts for about 17 years.... although I did call Pepper around 2014 (DDay landings 70th) for a brief chat .

Nick

Bloody hell, and again. What a year this has been...

Nick

Truck loads, but one I always remember was (1AD)Matthias, a Dutch lad, always polite and became a good friend.

Of course, all the OSS guys too, especially AfrowUK - his mapping skills took this game to an unseen level!

And you too! The train! Great map.

Blimey. Sorry to hear this sad news.

RIP soldier.

EDIT: BTW, hope I am not being rude, but how old was he?

Fafner, wonderful you have kept this message board active/archived and in good nick. Great stuff reading the old posts from yonks ago.

I have read some stuff I done years ago and honestly can't remember how I coded it or whatever.

Anyway, good stuff

Nick

How close? Can you touch his leg?

Last post. I can fart that tune in my old age.

I guess it's because he's not in the Western East or Eastern East....

Just a reminder - nearly here again!

I am over 60 now, that means, on average, I have been asleep for over 20 years of my life!

Nick

Another bloody new year. Getting old is shite.

In my next life I will be a May fly and get all over in 24hrs.

Ah, nice hexidecimal age - 40 years young.

And again. Hope you all have a good one,

Yikes, I am bloody 60 next year...

I think you will need to get the source and recompile to use the latest libs on the new system - without being at your computer, that is a guess. If there is any problems when building, GCC will squinny.

Nice to see some familiar faces.

They are still all pixelated at 640x480 to me

And again.

Have a good one everybody.

What's this to do with *nese spam posts? You looking to blow them up?

Nick

Trouble is, it will not stop some twat registering on the board and using a bot to post loads of crap.

Also, I am sure Fafner is well capable of doing it anyway.

Nick

干得漂亮!
