(From the RISC OS 2000 report)All of RCI's and their affiliate's Leisure titles were available to try, including the Chaos Engine, HOMM2, Doom+, Heretic, Ankh, Frak, and some PD software such as Marsquake - fun for 4 player amusement. Does this mean there was a version of Frak for RISC OS? Or was it a remake? R-Comp website yeilds nothing on the subject... |

Yes there was. ProAction released it so you need to see if APDL have incorporated it into their catalogue. |

Ah, looks like it was commercial, and needs 8MB or RAM?!?!? I'll just run it under BeebIt. |

I think it was just a conversion. They also obtained a conversion of Ravenskull but never really advertised it. |

Alas, it was not a direct port. It was 'improved'.
What this means was that it had none of the charm and amusement of the BBC version.You're better off emulating it.
Cheers! |
