ever write a manual for titanium?

My 'Man Cave'. A Small corner of a small kitchen in a small apartment. I can't wait till we finally find a house. F18a mod, CF7+ (mod for F18a, can almost read it on the title screen). To left of TI99 is a Palm III where I keep a database of my files on the CF card. Can't see it but below left is a bag with small printer and right a case with my carts.

My wife will play 'Parsec' and 'Centipede' with me from time to time, and she usually beats the crap out of me when she does.

actually have a silver and black flat 15" I plan to use as soon as I get around to putting the sound in the console, matches real nice.

I use a small flat panel TV with VGA connection, it has a setting to 'not stretch' the screen. you end up with black bars on the edge but it looks better to me then stretched. TV was about same price as a monitor. Also, if you look around at thrift shops you can still find square VGA monitors, I have one those too I use for testing.

well, looks like B-1 was it. If Avalon-Hill was mostly BASIC I wonder if some of the other platforms were cracked? if it didn't use too mant peeks and poke might be easy translation

OK, where there any other Avalon Hill games for the TI-99 other than B1-bomber?

is B1-bomber the only thanks.

I thought that B-1 bomber was SSI.

Anywhere I can find some SSI games to download. looked in whtech and didn't find any.

think you get same frame rate using on the TI. also, does the MSX access the video memory via some DMA or like the TI99 does.

Also, if you were thinking of asking; I tried using a SD/CF card (where you can insert an SD card into a CF card interface) on the CF7+ and it didn't work, constantly got read and write errors.

Since I got the f18a update and replaced the flaky speech module with a fairly mint one my cf7+ is solid as a rock now (knock on wood).

Maybe I have a slightly newer model or something but when I told him about some of the issues I was having he said I needed to swap it out for one he made for the f18a. he said it was some kind of timing issues. what was happening was when I turned on the TI99 sometimes it would lock up. when I got the 'f18a fixed' one that problem went away.

I got a CF7+ with a printer port. IF you do decide to buy a CF7 or NanoPEB from that guy on ebay who is making them, be sure to tell him if you have a f18a card installed in your TI99. He has to make the card a little different for the f18a. Also, be sure to get a power supply and have a good speech module. I had all kinds of problems with my CF7 till I replaced the speech module with one in much better shape.

never knew SSI made so many games for the TI99

were hoping for a cooling trend down to 95 here in Dallas. Been 100+ for a few days now.

When I was learning 99 assembler waaaaay back in the day I actually found the line by line assembler rather OK. Alright Tursi you convinced me, I'll get it. update: ... wouldn't you know it, finally decide to purchase the Mini-Mem after weeks of indecision and the guy is on vacation and not taking orders now.

Actually, yes. From time to time I play a Mille Bourne card game I wrote and working on Uno. If the game can be written with in the parameters of XB or BASIC it can still be a fun game.

Does it only work with the cassette, I can't remember. Also, isn't there other programs that do the same as easybug.

Is there any reason to own a mini-memory cartridge if you own Editor/Assembler cartridge. I been eyeing a guy on eBay who been selling off about 1/2 dozen mini-mem carts and trying to justify to myself the purchase of one.

great mod. easy to install too.

Anyone ever play Atari 'the Eidolon' with it's crude 3-d cavern. I would think the caverns would be good fit for the multi-color mode. http://youtu.be/E9cTvuwYi3w

LOL! for the less cool (and younger) among us, that to which he was referencing. http://youtu.be/npjOSLCR2hE
