There is an example code on the latest rb+ version how you can use packed gfx and how to unpack it in rb+ Sent from UMI hammer with Tapatalk

Ok great our code is very small so this should not be an issue. Must we save all register first a d restore afterwards or is that not needed ? Sent from UMI hammer with Tapatalk

Hi, In the raptor manual there are 3 api calls to run GPU code. RAPTOR_call_GPU_code RAPTOR_call_GPU_code_STOP RAPTOR_call_GPU_code_nowait If we understand correctly we can load custom code into the GPU and to start the code we run the API call ? RAPTOR is a GPU engine what we understand, so is it safe to just load GPU code? Because then the code could maybe overwrite RAPTOR ?! Or are certain rules we must follow to let own GPU code co-exist with the RAPTOR engine ? Is there example code that uses one of these api's ?

Better spend sometime to resolder points then next measure all traces. I think bad soldering is the most common error. I had a few xf551 drives that didn't work new out of the box. These had a bad rom. There are drives with an 8040 controller that use the eprom 2764 but the version with the 8050 have the rom indide the 8050 chip. This rom was bad on all drives. So to fix it you can check a jumper on the left of the 8050 (looking from the sio ports) this jumper allows you to disable the rom inside the 8050 and let it work like a 8040 then you need to add the eprom. This did fix all those drives seems a complete batch was faulty.

Interesting would you be interested to make a new batch ?

Yes I can tel you that its rare people buy five copy's of Cybermorph for $200 :-)

It's a big collection but I see no Aircars, Battlesphere, Battlesphere Gold and Iron Soldier 2 CD , Gorf, Mad Bodies to mention a few, all these titles are pretty common he sells. But I must say if you start a a Jaguar user its a good start. I think when the Jaguar CD is in top condition its worth about $750 higher prices sometimes are just insane ebay bids, just my 2 oppinion..

when you manage to re-create it with a 3d printer please share the 3d files here so other people can be helped aswell in the future.

Try B&c or best electronics Or someone must 3d scan it and remake it.

It runs on skunk and you can scale the walls within the view smaller or taler. I think at one time the code freezes but I think its more random than on a specific place/time. Its funny it runs on a real Jaguar but not on Virtual Jaguar I tryed all options.

yep this is what's known about this demo, written by Scott Corley This demo was build with the AGPU 2.6 GCC compiler from the Atari Jaguar Dev-kit. HVS was the only company we know that got this compiler working. The did compile it with the compiler and ran a program GCCGPUM (HVS tool) and this would fix all bugs/issues that could exist in the output code of the gcc compiler. This program is still lost, maybe it will be found someday. But the fact is that they had the compiler working and have used this HVS GPUMGR in several projects, one of them would be Ruiner Pinball but some other releases later then Ruiner should use it aswell. We suspect TRF and Dactyl Joust did use it also.

Were does he live maybe I can help searching for it. Sent from UMI hammer with Tapatalk

Nice I hope this will become a hype so all unreleased games will surface :-)

You can wait for the sdcsrt for the jaguar and read block so that would be an option second option own design of flashcard using bankswitching on the Atari 8-bit they got many upgrades like that with ram / rom. On a 64kb 8-bit lots of people got 1meg of ram and gb on sd or 128mb flash. The jaguar is the only console I know that has almost no non-standard hardware.

Yeah the outfits are sooo 1995... Sent from UMI hammer with Tapatalk

I wonder if Songbird has this rom or another version. Sent from UMI hammer with Tapatalk

Is there a link to this TRFALPHA.ROM ?

thanx I put this on my to-do list for now it stays @2,5MB are there schematics of the 520ST somewhere to download ?

Its the first joystick without a stick :-) I still use the atari joysticks there are several types so I choose the best one for each game. But this thing would be great for playing Decathlon because thats killing for joypad or in emulator the keyboard.

AWESOME!

Hello I just opened a 520st to clean. It has an memory expesionboard at bootup it tells me that it has 2,5MB. Can I add more memory to this board will it then 4mb or 4,5mb? Don't have a manual or name of this upgrade. Sent from UMI hammer with Tapatalk

Its a good rgb monitor only no composite or svideo thats suitable for Atari 8-bit. A good monitor to use with an Atari Jaguar.

When you don't got an ADC you can add it yourself http://www.mdgames.de/janalog.html

Maybe you can compress the backgrounds and only decompress the animation background you need.
