    I have also purchased this a while back, and have also struggled to get it downloaded. I ended up with a text file, and using notepad++ could find the download link in there.

     

    If you subscribe to their Yahoo group, you will get all the update links.

     

    I have actually been planning to purchase it foe a while, and only did so when it became financially feasible.

     

    Link to the group is: https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/PC99W/info.

     

    The cyc is a wealth of info.

     

    Overall I am very glad I purchased it.


  2. From The Cyc:

     

    Mini Editor/Assembler. © John T. Dow, 1982. Complements the Line-by-Line Assembler and the Editor/Assembler command module. The Mini Editor/Assembler requires the Mini Memory module, but is written in TI Basic. This means it executes out of the 16K VDP RAM, which is in the console. [This description is based on a bound manual, but marked "Draft Version" and "The program also needs further testing."]

     

    So I guess the one who finds that is very lucky. LOL


  3. Hi guys.

     

    (Mods please feel free to move, but this forum is visited more)

     

    I am now again (I think the third time this year) looking to revive my first computer.

     

    I am looking for a person or a group of people that would be willing to ship to South Africa.

     

    Looking for:

     

    1. Either a European console (preferably beige) or one with the F18A.

     

    2. Data recorder

     

    3. Speech Synth

     

    4. XB

     

    5. Minimem and tape

     

    6. Munchman

     

    7. Alpiner

     

     

    Then I might me looking for Editor Assembler if there is a way to run without PEB (Is there? What are the alternatives to the disk memory system, or can I use FG99)

     

    I do not need manuals or boxes

     

    Regards

     

    Pieter


  4. Thanks Spadafermo.

     

    Although Metlionics does not exist, they are regularly mentioned in South African retrogaming forums (of which I only became aware of while searching for Metlionics.

     

    Seems like they made this, now this I havent seen at all before.

    The box is in Afrikaans, which meant this was made in South Africa

    Thanks for the info...

     

    Yes it was acceptable to have packaging and instructions in English, if it came from overseas. My TI even had the promo material in for stuff that wasnt available in SA. (Got mine in 83).

     

    If I can recall (Old age .....) I do not know if I saw any Intellivision. Most played was ATARI.. HUGE competitions in malls back in the days, with celebs and musicians balling it out .

     

    If it helps our TI's were exactly the same versions as in the UK


  6. Hi guys

     

    Although I am a TI 99/4A user, I have a couple of questions for you (if you do not mind me asking, and helping me out if you can).

     

    Were any Intellivision systems sold in South Africa, and if so would it have been an European version? (In South Africa we use 220v and in the past our TV's were PAL). If so, are there any South African users on this forum.

     

    In the TI world, the guys doing emulation, had to get permission from TI to distribute official roms. What is the situation in your "world"

     

    Over at the TI 99/4A forum on AtariAge a user built his own machine, using old schematics etc, and even showcased a new version yesterday. http://atariage.com/forums/topic/266585-tiny-994a-computer/

     

    Has something like this been attempted for the Intellivision?

     

    Regards

  7. DSK1 is mounted..(Classic99 sees it, and when I access it through the Open DSK1 File menu entry, it shows the files in it)

    When I execute the first Load and Run, I type in DSK1.MM_LINES.OBJ

     

    The emulator "pauses" for a bit, and then comes back what another FILE NAME prompt

     

    I enter LINES, and then get a ERROR 0

     

    What are your DSK1 Settings in the emulator?

     

    When I for instance open XBDEMO using OLD DSK1.XBDEMO in XB, it works
