Not so sure that GameEx is backwards compatible to the Acorn OS.

@stigzler LOL. Well played sir.]

IN all seriousness - anyone got this up and running? It's a nightmare. Quick GE search revealed nothing. I also asked the internet and it didn't seem to know either! Tried:

Arcem

Arculator

RedSquirrell

RPCEmu

All just different shades of brown...

harrumph..

Sorry, this is the first time I have heard of it.

I took a peak at a few of the emulators/Virtual OS-alators and it does look a might bit more complex than the average setup.

The Acorn Archimedes was one of the first computers with a RISC processor (the one that Apple used later) and was released around Amiga era time. There where not many games for this system, i remember just only one where you fly a UFO over a 3D landscape in Marble Madness look.

I wish i could help you more and i wish you good luck with that stigzler. MAME support Archimedes since 0.180, but i dont know how and if you can load games at all.
