Exploring and extending the elite game engine

Post by acornist »

Spotted this on the list on talks at the Electromagnetic Fields festival later this month

Seems you have to pay for all three days and tickets may have sold out.

That’s really interesting!

I wonder how the multiplayer bit works - maybe running a simulated multiplayer universe on a modern machine and injecting the state into an emulator? Or is it all done on networked Beebs? It would be great to know; I was literally talking about this the other day in the Elite over Econet thread!

Hopefully something will get released that we can all have a play with, as it sounds very cool.

Anyone planning on going to EMF?
