Arnauld Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 I sometimes find it difficult to have all my Intellivision stuff up and running in a convenient manner, both for developing and playing. One reason is that it tends to take a lot of space. For instance, I've put my TV on top of the console -- which didn't complain so far: As another example, I love the Ultimate PC Interface -- which I'm often using with an ECS keyboard -- but my table is usually cluttered with random stuff and I don't know where to put the cables. So I've recently put all the stuff in some cardboard packaging and put the keyboard over it. Aaahhh ... much more convenient. :-) Also, sometimes you just don't have the correct cable. Below is my CC3 jack to serial to USB adapter (you can tell it's homemade): So, what kind of crafty setups are you guys using? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Any plans for Mad Drivin' ? It controls extremely well. It is easily the best intv racing game and it isn't even complete. Me and my boy love it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, it's not yet ready for prime time... but it's getting closer. Man this is great! This is a title I thought had been totally scrapped. I am very happy to hear it will be available in the near future! Troy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnauld Posted May 31, 2014 Author Share Posted May 31, 2014 Any plans for Mad Drivin' ? Well, the problem with Mad Drivin' is that its current road engine is a bit too limited. It was however designed for a bare Intellivision without any extra RAM. With a modern JLP board, it's certainly possible to do most calculations in real time -- as opposed to the mostly pre-computed data that was used in the demo. I did some experiments last December on an improved engine but there's still a long way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmart604 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 @revolutionika: Rick Danger... I mean, Rick Dynamite should enter the beta testing phase pretty soon. Wow! Talk about unexpected great news! Very happy to hear you're working on it Arnauld, so many folks are dying to get to play your game. This just made my day. I wonder if Rev has it updated on his homebrew news section yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Lathe26 Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Arnauld, I see that you also have done some work with the HP48 calculator. If you have an Android phone, you can install Droid48 for free at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.ab.x48 (I didn't write this app). If you want to save off programs from there, you can install an app I wrote called Droid48 Reader at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.drehersoft.droid48reader. One bit of warning though, Android 4.4 seems to be causing some problems for Droid48 and the Samsung 5-family of phones is causing problems for Droid48 Reader (I'll fix Droid48 Reader as soon as I fix my home server).

doctorclu Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) Here is what I came up with for the Intellivision setup: The intellivisiion 2 and ECS are generally hooked up. The voice module (not always needed) and the System Changer (With Super Charger for game loading) (also not always needed) are nearby. I am thankful that the ECS computer keyboard and synthesizer keyboard had long connector cables. Whenever I need either keyboards I pull them over to where the LCD monitor (with RF tuner) is nearby. With the Intellivision 2 there was the 9 pin controller ports, so with that I have a 9 pin extension cable for the controllers too. So to summarize, all my Intellivision is on display on a nearby shelf away from the LCD monitor. Edited June 2, 2014 by doctorclu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nonner242 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 My setup. My favorite part is the mp3/supercharger player for all my homebrew/2600 needs. Even tho it looks like a monster it saves time and space...really it does. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INTVfan98 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Though this is not my usual setup, it is certainly Weird 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
