The Wakefield RISC OS Computer Club provides a friendly face for all things RISC OS in Yorkshire, the surrounding regions and beyond. Originally formed as the Wakefield BBC Micro User Group in 1983, it is one of the longest established RISC OS user groups and now has members all over the UK.
The group meets most months to look at subjects relating to RISC OS, publishes a monthly newsletter, The WROCC, and provides an online discussion group to keep its members informed. We also organise the annual Wakefield RISC OS Computer Show, which is now firmly established in the platform’s calendar.
For more information about the group, contact us or visit one of our meetings. You can find out more about RISC OS in our brief introduction to the operating system or discover new hints, tips and tricks in our RISC OS HowTo.
Charles Ferguson, aka ‘Gerph’, will talk about the games he’s worked on - the Doom work that he did back when he was at university, that later became the enhanced version of Doom+, then Heretic and Hexen... and then jump to the current day and the recent work on the games that have been re-issued. He’ll mostly talk about some of the challenges in the games and some of the things he found fun.
He may try to demo it, but the game gets choppy whilst on video so we’ll see if that works.
