In the last video I showed you a way to procedurally generate game levels and hinted about an upcoming game. In this video I'm going to cover some of the more interesting issues and solutions I found whilst building this game in AMOS.

For an up-coming game I need to generate a large amount of levels, but I'm too lazy to design them all. So in this video we take a look at procedurally generated levels using AMOS. We then look at speeding up the algorithm and finally tiling a simple maze with a very smart approach to the edges

So in the last video I tried to fix a dead short circuit between 5V and GND by removing all of the electrolytic capacitors. Unfortunately that didn't work and the short remained.

In this video we're going to check the SMD ceramic capacitors to see if one of them is at fault. Don't worry, I've a fast and easy way to find the culprit, and spoiler.... this time we do! If you are planning on recapping an A1200 be careful with C407. It has a different orientation between Rev 1 and Rev 2 boards!

I've picked up an A1200 motherboard that unfortunatly doesnt work. It has a dead short circuit between 5V and GND, so in this video we're going to investigate the cause and start with recapping it - this is an interactive game and I hope you'll post which capacitor you think is at fault in the comments!

In this video I'm going to show you a bit about the disk backup station that I made and took to Kickstart 01 - the Amiga show in Nottingham in 2023.

In this video I'm going to recap on where I got to last time, and the exciting stage I'm currently at! There's some great progress, and I'm now in beta testing for the minimig core. This also includes some important updates for copy protected games to work too.

In this video we're going to take a look at a MOD you can do on the A590 to give it a speed boost. That's right, the 14Mhz mod. We'll take a look at what it does, perform the mod, and benchmark the speed changes.

In this video I'll show you how to troubleshoot a floppy disk drive thats not reading disks. I'll then show you how to manually clean one, and finally how to build your own floppy drive head cleaning disk.

Get rid of that old spinning SCSI hard disk drive. In this video we're going to look at solid state alternatives for SCSI drives that we could install in our newly working A590.

I'll focus on the Blue SCSI V2, and once installed we'll re-install the operation system, OS3.2 and all of it's updates.
