Yes i expect it’s pretty simple, if you have the original board, to follow the traces. At most it will be one resister and a couple of wires. If no one else has that board, no one else can help you. I don’t know how much more help anyone else can offer, it’s pretty much up to you to work it out and share the info so it can help the next person looking for this info.

The LED's were for the modified Drive cases Gavin made from my original drive case designs, he added drive activity and power leds to the front of the cases

The 1.3 disks are on my TNFS server if anyone wants to try it out. Let me know if you have any issues getting them to load, I've tested locally but not over the internet yet.

I contacted the seller, he didn’t realize he’d messed that up and he’s changed it.

Gavin never shared the Gerber's or even the schematic for his revision of the board so I don't know what he did exactly. From the looks of it he just added a resistor and a trace to the power line for the power led and got the act led from a couple of points where the pcb solders to the uno. If you follow the traces from the led pickup points to the other end you can see where to tack a wire to pick up the same levels. you will need to measure the resistance on that 3rd resistor to see what value it is and use a similar value if you want the led to be the same brightness.

I’m planning to rewrite de re when my sub cart arrives. if anyone wants to help with proofreading and technical corrections/ readability improvements etc I’d appreciate it.

I don't want to drag this off topic so this is just a sidebar. I have noticed an uptick in new software that supports or even requires the VBXE lately; it does appear to be getting more support, maybe it has finally reached a large enough number of people that developers think it's worth the effort.

Anyone have any updates on the Atari Museum?
Mr Robot replied to DavidMil2's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
The GitHub link I posted is also Rees, it's probably the files he uses for the mirror. If anyone has a complete backup of the site before it closed I'd happliy give it a home on my webspace. I notice that no one has converted Curts Facebook to a memorial page yet, I have a few departed friends that are the same, it's like people don't know you can do that. -

Atari User (UK) & Page 6(New Atari User) Typeins
Mr Robot replied to Champions_2002's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
Does anyone have a copy of "Demon's Lair"? It was a game given away as a Freebie in Atari User Vol.1 Iss.10 to people who purchased the Disk or Tape. I can't find it anywhere! -
My first thought is if this were fully modern it would be a good idea to drop the ps2 and go for usb or Bluetooth for the controllers/ keyboard/mouse and straight to DisplayPort for the video output.

Atari 1020 Plotter DIY replacement Pens(RetroHax.net)
Mr Robot replied to Fierodoug5's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
When I was working on the same idea I found most of the pens were too fat to get through the return spring on the front so it would never reach the page. Well done actually getting this to work properly! -
Look for a game called Thrust. I think you'll like it.

Just wanted to say I'm enjoying playing this very much indeed Thank you for your hard work!

Tempest for the Atari 800xl with paddle support
Mr Robot replied to RicardoMosse's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
Beef Drop from twenty years ago is still only available digitally as a demo version. "Eventually" could be a very very long time! -
Introducing 1200XL - a new Atari 8 bit gaming podcast
Mr Robot replied to BoatofCar's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
Great thanks! I missed the Amigos feed, that and TWiR (and Antic when there is one) are the shows I listen to in the car during the week. Adding 1200XL now. -

Mr Robot replied to Fierodoug5's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
I was on exactly the same journey to develop this, I got most of the way and just never found the right gel pens. Excellent to see it working @Savetz will be super happy -

Hey Boat, is this feed going to disappear behind a Patreon paywall like the Amigos feed did? -

Whatever happened to the PokeyMax 3 replacement board?
Mr Robot replied to Dropcheck's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
Don't forget PokeyONE is still available. Usable for Atari computers if you want it to be the second POKEY in a build. https://paradisearcadeshop.com/products/pokeyone-v2-fpga-atari-pokey-replacement
