  1. Past hour
  2. I want to create a little utility for Windows to list, extract from, add to and delete the contents of LiteDOS SE-format .ATR files. I have the manual, and it explains the format of a native disk, but I need to know the format of a Atari disk image. For example: does it have a header? How are sectors organized?
  3. DATA >004A — Load Lower-Case Character Set (TI-99/4A only) Who says programmers aren't wild and crazy guys with a sense of humor?
  4. I did swap out LS154. It’s still not configuring. BTW It lights up the front LED on power up and hangs the whole system - (this is what I found allows the system to boot to E/A cartridge - power cycle the console three times, or turn the 4000B off then back on). Once it ‘looks’ for the RAM disk it pretty much needs to be turned off and then back on to try to negotiate with the PEB, otherwise the light (LED) remains on; am I overlooking something?
  5. These were never displayed on any computer, except if you POKE'ed directly on video screen, or you used CHR$(1) (not available in CVBasic because there exists VPOKE)
  6. Hm. Not the answer I was hoping to hear, but knowing that 0-31 is free for the user to access and change is useful information indeed. Aren't they ordinarily computer commands, like backspace and return and communications with other systems?
  7. Pin one of the U1, the 74LS154 ties into the pin 22 "CS" of the M1 memory location. Did you try changing the 154, as it may have a short. I don't have batteries on mine to check it with currently.
  8. Sadly, my VBXE is installed in a PAL machine. But this looks amazing and I'm glad to see it exists.
  9. Today
  10. So how to config that and where to get newer versions? And firmware is compatible?
  11. 100% true and I agree, but in truth, EVERYTHING today is designed to separate you from your dollar (not just the post lol). Now get off my lawn! 😁
  12. Judy looking on Ebay UK, trying to find the 4 x 44256 ram chips is proving difficult.
  13. I was looking at this thread because I was at a local flea market the other day, and there happens to be a stall there that sells retro games. I don't currently have a 2600+ (I use Batocera on a mini-PC), but this flea market stall had hundreds of loose 2600 cartridges, so I'm seriously thinking about picking up a 2600+ just so I can grab a bunch of those cartridges and see if I can find any hidden gems. I'm going back to the flea market this weekend so I can take a better look at what they have. They were stacked up in crates so I could only see the top layer.
  14. This game was made by @newcoleco maybe you should chime to ask for help.
  15. Not to mention the elephant in the room: the JagGD already exists, and it doesn't require owning a JagCD in the first place. Sure, it doesn't work reliably for everyone (at least, not yet), but the real JagCDs don't either.
  16. Right, so it wouldn't even require a real ST Mouse for emulation; it could just emulate it by plugging in a modern USB PC mouse, as all (or certainly most) emulators can.
  17. This *really* bugs me. Even with display height set to 212 and vertical offset set to 14, it still isn't enough. You can clearly see this when using certain utilities or 16MB hard disk images. The text at the top of the screen gets cut off.
  18. I just played it for the first time when I saw your post. That game is pretty awesome. Really impressive.
  19. I can't find it at the moment, but I have the DOS version somewhere, and I'm almost certain that the CD case is the one shown in the upper picture. It also includes the same CD audio tracks that were featured on the Tempest 2000 soundtrack CD. I don't remember if the Windows version is on the CD as well. No idea on what's on the CD in the bottom picture.
  20. Yeah still occasionally having a stab at this one, time has been short. You’re right @TheCurlyBard about the ship maneuvering, not sure this game is doing my controller any favours and yeah, also get quite a few rogue movements, but I’m sticking with it so I can at least claim full original hardware attempt 😛 Current best is a slight improvement. I believe my controller movements were >\>>/>\#%*!?!!! 89 950
  21. Man they have some of the best testers for Amico! Not only was the AI not complete in Cornhole, but you can't even play all the game! I think this also confirms this is an Alvarado family draining the swamp endeavor. ONLY THE BEST OF TESTERS! AND TOTALLY ON THE LAUNCHPAD! I bet Sharon's horse caught more bugs than they did! 🤣
