People are auctioning off FFF Software manuals? And people are bidding on them? Really? Do you remember how much they sold for?
He asks, knowing he has a garage full of them. :-)

I use the lotherek hxc floppy emulator
Ditto.

"Two in the PInk" , "Hoof Hearted" "Gee Spot", the race is kinda racey.

I only got my first NTSC console about a month ago (my other consoles have been PAL) and I was surprised to see the extent of the rainbow effect on a TV set. Vertical single pixel lines that are supposed to be white are red, blue, green but never white. Never thought of this before while developing any of my stuff.
In this memo from 1982 Karl Guttag is talking about a rainbowless version of the 9918 that they were testing.
Well NTSC does stand for Never The Same Color

Got mine a few days ago, but didn't get a chance to play it until yesterday, it's frustratingly awesome! I'm going to be seeing colored pills in my nightmares.

I might be missing one, but the 2 versions of Pac Man I have are the Atari version and the home brew version I converted yesterday. I will double check and remove it if it is a dup. Thanks
I can confirm that this is the homebrew one and not the atarisoft. It's not a bad conversion actually.

I'll ride the coat tails of your future success.

I find because that original monitor is so small it makes the graphics seem sharper.

If you have JAVA installed, you can just run the JAR file from the USB stick without having to install it. I think the JAVA install is the part your IT department would have a problem with.

Looks like there are some good youtube's on the subject. Youtube is like HGTV but for things I'm interested in (and everything else)

An interesting alternative:
Haha I think this guy could have used a better example object, I thought it was showing the wrong way to do it at first until I realized it was supposed to be Darth Vader's helmet from the new movie.

Wait, so I only need to desolder that capacitor? It's so rare when procrastination pays off.

Just ordered this, if this stuff had been available back in the 80s, I might never have left the TI for C64

This is one of the ones I got, it is pristine. And mine works great.and here's one NOS for half the price of both the item and shipping

I've seen this movie a bunch of times, I can't seem to remember ever seeing a TI 99 in it.EDIT: just did quick run through of the movie, these are literally the only 2 scenes with computers in the whole film.


Pretty sure that's a CoCo

Ksarul to the rescue!

As he pointed out, I goofed up when I copied the bank switch circuitry from the multi-cart in that I connected the capacitor to the wrong end of the resistor.

When I rewire the capacitor correctly, the disk test works just fine on my "bad" system, and response time seems improved overall.
And even better, it requires only a small modification to existing boards:
Just wanted to get this out. I'll add a more detailed description about the fix soon.
Thanks again, Ksarul, for saving my ass!

I haven't soldered anything since my junior high electronics class, this should be fun.

Instead of making one I decided to just buy one. Here is the one I bought a month or so ago. They make them as you order them. I got mine within 5 business days.
I have one of these, It's nice to be able to tuck the speech module and the flex cable behind the PEB

Email sent, this is very impressive stuff.

There is a detailed breakdown of how the boing demo was achieved in this book.
It had a lot to do with pallette shifting and the playfield control on the Amiga hardware.

I'd like one of these as well

MIST - Amiga/Atari ST FPGA implementation
in TI-99/4A Computers
Posted
So I'm guessing by the way this thread changed into a discussion about the F18A, that nobody ever made core files for the MiST to emulate a TI. I got one and it's cool to use for Amiga and C-64 emulation. I have other cores set up, but haven't really messed much with those other system types.
