My project to document #Elite on the #Commodore64 is now complete. I hope you enjoyed it! It's time for a Christmas break now, but I'll be back with the Apple II version in the new year. In the meantime, here's the finished #C64 site for you to explore: I gave a talk on Elite at hack::soho earlier in the year, and the video’s now available on YouTube. It's a whirlwind tour of three fascinating aspects of Elite: procedural generation, 3D maths and the split screen. Gosh, I talk quickly when I’m having fun! 🤣 I hope you like it.  @markmoxon that talk was great, thank you. 👏🏾 It led me a rabbit hole of sorts f.i. the one for Minsky circles. 😅  @markmoxon Quick one. Didn’t Jez San help B&B with the 64 version and the log lookup tables suggestion? Or am I misremembering something I read somewhere? I'm really proud to present my fully documented source code for Elite on the Commodore 64. This is the original 1985 source, recently released by Ian Bell, with every single line of code explained. It’s a thing of beauty. Enjoy!

@markmoxon I played Elite on a Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Loved it. Posts like this are making me look at getting Elite Dangerous & reliving those days. @markmoxon Great work 👍 🥰 @markmoxon Also BeebDis which dissasembles 6502 .bin files into BeebAsm format .asm files. |
