It takes more time and effort to sent from Thailand then all the shipments a few years back I did from The Netherlands (that was easy).
(Normal Thai Post does not ship electronic equipment last time, but I need to double check).
Today I spent 2+ hours at DHL to send some packages and first of all I hope they all arrive all in good condition at the buyers.
(and Ebay .... is still holding my payments until it has been delivered).
Besides the ebay transaction costs and additional taxations on top of it,
I need to adjust the shipment fees in the ebay system (once I have time in the weekend)
(it is a weird system in the bidding it takes domestic shipment instead of international shipment)
To be transparent here are the rates from Thailand
* USA is Zone 3
* Europe is Zone 3
* Then it depends on the package size
* and depends on the weight
(the max. I can ship is 30Kg, I believe the complete PEB + Geneve 9640 is around that, otherwise I need to ship in different boxes)
-
FYI -
... in eBay some bidders cannot bid somehow, something in eBay related to "international shipping", but also with package sizes.
eBay cannot calculate the costs to the countries (I entered some higher values), but later on we need to check the real shipment
price (at the shipper from Thailand) to the country it need to be shipped to.
* For some bids, I am revising the shipment part configuration to see if that solves for international bidders.
(I never had this issue 4 years ago when selling a lot of TI-99/4A products from The Netherlands, it is the same account I use).
For all items in the DESCRIPTION field I added this.

The 5th one is for the Chess Module. That's an odd one, in that there was an official overlay for the /4, but not for the /4A.
Ronvankl6 still isn't coming up with any results. . .
That's funny I thought it was a drawing program, but "DRAW?" is the draw the chess game....and I am a Chess player.

Weird with the userid. I listed most under ronvankl_0 now

I see some views on items, but some are 0 views...no clue how ebay lists it.
Maybe these direct links help?
I have more items to list, but probably I can do it in the weekend only, because I test everything first if it works and create a video, before packing it.
Almost all ebay posts have a video attached (sometimes resized) / YouTube has the full video: https://www.youtube.com/@Globeron-TI99VIDEOS/videos

Looks like the second user ID isn't coming up at all on my search, @globeron. The first one works fine. Looking at the 99/4 overlays, is one of those for TI Writer (the fourth one from the left)?
It is Editor Assembler (lower right left on the overlay). The 5th mentions Draw (TI Artist? Or something else?) There is a website somewhere listing all /4 overlays.
I need to figure out why it does not come up, otherwise I will list again under the 1st one. (Not sure what the shipment calculation issue is, it used to work when I was in Europe, but not from Asia with the same account).
I mention it in the description about the shipment fees (which are not cheap), last time I sent a TI99 to Canada about USD 150+ shipment

IMPORTANT -
Somehow ebay does not allow me to indicate "calculate international shipment fees" and I need
to select "Flat Rate" (I setup 2x accounts with the same issue).NOTE:

Could be possibile to have a complete backup of this board at least?
About other already Active good boards, we also have:
-http://www.99er.net/phbbarchive/99er.net/99erbb/viewforumcf19.html?f=6
Or this:
- http://planet-99.net/ (forum section)
Both of them created by great 99ers enthusiasts
I am okay with any other option whatever works for the TI-99 community,
but I tried to create an account to both websites above and got errors and cannot register ?
It also would be good that files (.bin, .rpk, .docx, etc.) can be attached in post and easy copy and paste of a word docx without losing the format.

I like it, but the same question here: Who is the owner of forumotion.eu,
and what will happen with it in future ?
If we can fetch or export all data, all is possible, but uneeded work if done twice or more times...
(Please also keep in mind that I own the ti994a.com (from Barry Boone), the .DE,
Geneve9640.com and .de and much more domains.
I would pass some of this domains away or relink or share the ownership with or without others or whatever, for such a (guaranteed) use.)
And there are whtech.com, also Rich Polivka´s 99er.net, Fabrice´s ti99.com and much more well established pages/names that are hosted by hopelessly addicted users....
And at such a point, if so, for me it makes very much sense about a "community of heirs" (owners & admins) for this domains, and to discuss it (wherever).
For me it must not happen that someone passes away or becomes a bitch or whatever and the community slides into a status like "Game Over".
Ref: "Atari has gone and purchased the website AtariAge for an undisclosed fee
(source: https://www.gamedeveloper.com/business/atari-acquires-historian-website-atariage)"
Atariage was the most central one, but now all previous and new posts are probably the property and owned by Atari ?
Just trying how easy and fast it is to setup a similar format (look and feel) forum with a dedicated TI-99 focus (for the community by the community and not owned by an org.)
You are right, so many forum moved and disappeared (Yahoo group, etc.) and so many websites.
This is what I could find about Forumotion:
https://www.forumotion.com/terms-of-service
forumotion.com is a service published by the company e-Toxic, a limited liability company based at 100 Rue Albert Caquot 06410 Sophia Antipolis, FRANCE, registered under number 490 862 059 in the Antibes Trade and Companies Register.

So what if i.e. the Atari managment or just the responsible department head changes next year,
or if Atari gets acquired or whatever,
and they suddenly find out that the at least 2nd big and maybe most growing forum here is
Texas Instruments, and that Texas Instruments is not Atari ? 🤔
So I come back to my question that I asked more than once before,
how to export/backup this, the biggest TI99&Co related knowledge- and filebase (in a usable format) ?
Maybe a smart "crawler" can be programmed easily ?
you are very good at that to preserve the TI-99 in detail.
Also feel all the good info need to backed up before it is gone again.

I think you want this version:
I did not see there was a V2, thanks!
For the competition we can do both V1 or V2 scores.
(somehow I like the V1 graphics as it is more ZX alike I feel)

I wasn't initially interested in compiling this game, but since there are people that could like to play it on the real hardware (and do not have any disk system...), here is the cart!
To summarize: based on last V2.0 version, all 20 levels packed into the cart (NO disk required!), joystick support and, of course, compiled!
There is also a label, for those that want to burn the cart. MAME .rpk and .bin versions for FG99/Classic99/etc.
Have fun!
Thank you, nice!

Nice game and fast! (in the earlier version it was slow and I could not shoot somehow)
Wave 5 - 01676 (classic 99)
I could not go back to remove the A in my name.
Also .rpk here for Retrobat/MAME

(Check out the high score competition, most are challenging), but for sure classic ones: Munch-Man, TI-Invaders, Chisholm Trail and modern ones: War Zone, SkyWay, Road Fighter, TI- Scramble.
Increasing difficulty levels, try to beat the highscores then you know why 🙂

It seems Hopman was released 26-March-2023 already for the TI-99/4A, but recently added to the page:

I don't even see Hopman in the list of games
Maybe once all versions have been created.

(Impetus is the only one not being available for the TI-99/4A platform - http://inufuto.web.fc2.com/8bit/impetus/).
Some systems at the end of the list have the src code listed
Just curious is the source code of any of the other systems useable to be compiled via any of these tools for TI-99/4a?
or does the source code need to be adjusted as well (Crosslib + inufuto tools) ?

I cannot Edit my original post anymore (after a while that option is gone, but:
Tutankam, it actually works I just tested it with only a FinalGrom plugged in (and removed the Speech and PEB Box)
