  1. no one says an anonymous fan sprite hack version couldn't mysteriously appear with said gphx... official release of game followed by crazy good other version no one knows where it came form It's looking good either way...
  2. See what you get not using the rf but rather the monitor din out if it has been so modified. Composite and audio... what to you see and hear? since someone already did an upgrade... pictures of the board might be a good idea to check the work and modifications to it.. possibly top and bottom. Should be interesting.
  3. what part of making stronger/beefing up doesn't translate here... and who cares who makes it.. a simple observance of what a person asks for or what was thought about it as opposed to what 'is' of course has to turn into a sh*t sh*w... What's the harm in folks asking for those who can do such things in their sleep whom already possess everything needed to do it, and have the least expensive connections and and suppliers all mapped out. So get out there, your just as good at slam dunks as all the NBA guys on the dream team and win the Olympics! Build that bridge yourself! after all with computer coaches and cad cam anybody can do it. No excuses allowed. God forbid those two guys pointed out their experience. or described what they thought or wanted. Shame on those of us who thought it was a good idea as well. Yep a 1:1 replacement board being brought up to strong beefy standards with thicker traces and plated through holes would surely suck for anyone who wanted to move all the components directly and easily from the old board to the new board and have a like new drive that will last and is true to the original. Indeed. I don't see anything wrong with anyone pointing out what went wrong or what they thought or what experience they had. In my humble opinion I wish more people would do so. I also saw nothing wrong with them expressing what they thought they were getting and explaining what they wanted. I in fact agreed with that approach and still do. It's fine. I also believe asking if anyone would be willing to make the better board isn't beyond the pale. Making a BS argument that they should in fact have done it themselves or should do it themselves kind of kills the idea that anybody should be in business doing this stuff. If they are happy to ask for an experienced person to do it for them and PAY for it. Why would you deny either party the chance to do so? . . This diatribe brought to you by the 'There we go again' group and is not necessarily the view or opinion of the textual deliverer of said content. Party on dudes! Be excellent to one another!
  4. Das ist ja wohl die Höhe! google says that's unbelievable... but I think it's the limit like it's right up there,.... the greatest... but that's just my take on it... yeas I think it's the top most. The tops! woot okay enough of that... With highest praise, Doc Brown
  5. glad I exposed the error, let me know a point in which it would normally scan for side 2 so I can see what happens Mask didn't try at all using AVG, I will try sio2sd
  6. Glad to hear it! I've never gone wrong with sockets and checking ram... glad the shorted ram is out of there!
  7. RELIABILITY AND COST AS WELL AS KEEPING AS ORIGINAL AS POSSIBLE? No you don't get it, some people just want the same board same layout with better quality traces that's all. no breaks or cracks, exactly the way it was laid out using all the old parts from the original with some meat on it. Transplant 1 for 1. Since I can move all the parts without destroying them, just about anyone can. I am not anything special when it comes to soldering or de-soldering... Reliable restoration is kind of a thing for some... re imagined or some what re created is not what some folks go for. (at least not without darn compelling and required reasoning) What's wrong with a choice? I like choices!
  8. horsey quarter and helicopter games can be electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic.... not my kind of games though here is some silliness https://www.bmigaming.com/games-video-motion-simulation-games.htm but you all want this g sim chair!
  9. Playing this on a 130XE NTSC with AVG B0014 and MIO right now.... so far I haven't had an issue with serpent... will play a while.... I haven't had it ask for a disk yet... unless waiting indicates return for drive access..... so I decided to offer myself up to a wolf and he promptly fanged me to death it said press return.... I did so repeatedly.... no indication any thing was happening... in a moment or two I was at the start of the game. So I might guess it load side one fine... what's the quickest way to side 2? I could then test that right away.. I will try mask while waiting for quick answer
  10. You want negative? Take a walk with me around the 'hood.... you are gonna get some real input from folks whether you want it or not Our community is super protective of anyone or anything that gets produced. A number of folks doing these projects are very sensitive people as well. So we end up seeing all kinds of skirmishes. I don't think there were any personal attacks and I certainly don't want to go looking back into the thread to find them. Hey I'm a sensitive guy too! So I'd call out to whoever wants to produce a beefed up 1:1 board to do so. I'd love to see all those XF 551's come off the side lines. This would be the way to do it.
  11. Alfred comes through! Thanks for finding the time and putting the effort into getting this done! +1
  12. funkheld please keep this all in one thread, you are pushing all other topics to nowhere land! The is fast becoming the funkheld forum of help me pages... You will have received far more help having stayed in one thread! Please be mindful of others.
  13. would be cool to have you post up the complete fedora with O.S. package in a zip for all to enjoy right here in this thread. perhaps a blurb on how the folks can do the burn and install and all the methods in between. I kind of would like this to become the official rom of the line...
  14. Here's to getting out from under and to a brighter future! Kick some construction *ss!
  15. I pleased as punch that both of these are now running for me. I am certain there is much more to do. I we constantly picked things apart we'd be afraid to make you lose heart. If you thrive on the challenges, we should all find time to have a test fest and let you have it! Cleaning up the code and dotting I's crossing T's can be a reward in and of itself. Looking back through what you've done a couple months later can often yield wonderful new results!
  16. Time to get Albert to front page that these are ready for purchase and good to go! That being said, I can not use the ordering system it keeps popping about being unable to do something or another... using firefox ablock plus and ublock origin.
  17. yes indeed roof colors change as does the roof.
  18. it's a setting in respeqt which will not apply in your case... it applies to rs232 type cables... so you probably do not see the settings for that.
  19. so get permission to edit it all, ask a mod or sys....
  20. sounds like the low profile precision sockets from back in the day.... they were super pricey and save some height... hole are round depending how low you need to go. in some application those socket and nipping the chip leads might be needed to get it all flush...
  21. Please don't get overwhelmed, whenever someone is hot on doing something we have all wanted, we tend to try to get it all before interest wanes or that person tires out or real life happens. Run with it Run with it!
  22. which sio 2 PC? rs232 or usb? did you toggle edge?
