Keep us up to date what you get Lewis! I've got my money waiting for a Mega65 ATM but one of these will be on my ever growing list eventually!

We can certainly consider this. I might add a 'Tools' tab (which is easier now) to link off to these as a starting point and any further integration can be discussed 👍

I'm certainly happy to put this on to my list to start a new extension - unfortunately my family commitments are pretty busy just ATM but I will take a look soonish!

👍

Great stuff Mike! Anything from the core you can feed back into A7800?

A new release (v0.7.0) is now available with the following changes: Updated 7800basic to v0.18 (Windows, Linux, macOS)

Amazing stuff my friend - enough words literally can't cover your contributions to the 7800 over a long time now. The position the platform now finds itself is due in part to your hard work and effort. Thank you mate 👏👏👏

Very exciting James - enjoy the interviews tomorrow 😁

Wow - he has done a nice job! Rob Taylor has a recreation board he has just released here which I'm considering doing myself (have a spare case and keyboard + a few original chips) https://www.tindie.com/products/bobsbits/vicky-twenty-commodore-vic-20-pcb-replica/

Good stuff 😁

Great question Andrew! On top of Andrew's question what tools, modern processes etc are they using compared to the old days. Also sounds like they might be using either DPC or an upgrade to that. If so, can they talk about the changes they made to enhance that module.

Not sure where you are located but it's either an Aldi European version or a C64G (https://www.old-computers.com/museum/computer.asp?c=1136). Nice variation though!

@Karl G Awesome mate thank you - that will work great! I've done a bit with pointers in the past but they still throw up challenges!!

Hi everyone, I want to store some messages in alphadata, copy it into ram and then offset the starting point to display a different section of the message. Now if I setup a pointer (either trying 1 or 2) it doesn't show the text but if I directly reference the ram location it does show. Is this sort of thing possible?? rem vars dim pointer = a.b rem copy to ram memcpy $2200 message 40 rem set pointer (try 1) pointer[0] = $00 : pointer[1] = $22 rem set pointer (try 2) const plo = <#message const phi = >#message pointer[0] = plo : pointer[1] = phi rem draw plotchars pointer 0 0 0 20 plotchars $2200 0 0 5 20 alphadata message font 'hello567890abcdefghi' '01234567890abcdefghi' end Working example plotchars_example.zip

@Cousin Vinnie has given Millie & Molly the special treatment in his great review of the game! Thanks funkmaster 👍

Brilliant thanks Vinnie - loved reading it 👏👏👏 Hope you enjoy playing some more levels 😁

I think it relates to certain rom types but the compiler now creates versa and cc2 builds automatically on top of the standard .a78 and .bin files. The versa builds are for AA carts I believe.

A new release (v0.6.9) is now available with the following changes: Updated Stella to v6.5.2 (Windows, Linux [Deb], macOS). Note: Linux 32-bit is currently v6.2 Added check for 7800basic *.versa files to copy file into bin folder

Thanks for the feedback. Yeah I think I little tweaking to adjust the speed might be in order. Some of the other controllers have the ability to set different speeds so I'll see what might be possible with the paddles. Just waiting for a concerto update so I can do a little more hardware testing myself.

Can vouch for the tunes coming in EXO 😍 Bobby doing some very nice work 👋👋👋

You should be able to just go to https://www.twitch.tv/zeropagehomebrew to watch. But yes it will appear on YouTube in a few days.

Thanks James - looking forward to seeing how the paddles play 🤞🤞🤞

I have 2 PAL systems and neither of them work with Concerto (very occasionally they load a rom). I need to crack them open and provide a bit of detail but happy to wait on Fred to work through the changes ATM. I'm sure things will improve.

Yeah true - some of these files will have changed with a 7800basic upgrade so maybe it sees that change. Whichever way it's annoying!!

I had this pop-up on me just the other day - the 7800basic false/positive on the compiler files. If you go into Defender you can accept the file or reverse the block. Not sure the best way to fully whitelist these files unfortunately mate.
