You sure you dont read Lovecraft? With your mode of speech you might quite enjoy it. Provided you realize that his xenophobia wandered into the realms of modern day rascism. If you are so inclined, I would reccomend "The Horror at Red Hook".

Hello, is it possible to release the PCB files for the F18A? If not, it's totally cool. I have not read this entire thread, so it may be that they were released and I missed that somewhere back in the pages. If I really enjoy making things. The FG99 has been my latest attempt and I think it is about to come to fruition in about 48-72 hours. I would like to try my hand at your F18A. I mean no offense by my request, if any is incurred please accept my apology.
Thank you kindly

So my co-worker was chatting with me today, about my Finalgrom99 project, about 20 mins into shift. The conversation swung round to Python coding, and he says, "Yeah, Python can be tricky. Especially since 3.* and 2.* are incompatible"
.... *internal facepalm*
So when I get home I will be trying to run the 2.7 compiler instead of the 3.5 I have been trying to use....
.... *rolls eyes, shakes head, sulkily walks away*
Well at least that lil bit of unpleasantness is over with.
Please feel free to laugh. I did. 🙂

I'd recommend it. If it is a long term doodle. Might save some organizational frustrations.

Kinda torn here guys and gals. Should I keep em and try and make my z80 interface? Sell em outright? Alternatively, is there a simpler project, that I am unaware of, that you might suggest?
Go!

Same .. granted I am the newbie around here . Still thanks for keeping the link alive. DL'dLast version was 2.1 which can be downloaded from here - https://drive.google.com/open?id=17TSdQzMbWz5jZWHATbMIWpj1-FAOB-XH
I had a version 2.3 in development but lost it when a HD got wiped out, there is however now version 3 in development and coming along some time
I own the real hardware now and would like to use the Gamebase files on modern loading solutions like finalGrom and Nanopeb some day.

I am so excited. Got WUMPUS! Had Parsec already. Never played Chess but I think personal age refining may let me enjoy it more than my youth would have. Is it me or is the Parsec cart suspicious?

New Code :
Please note that all "*.py" files are in the same directory as the "make.py"
#!/usr/bin/env python #!/usr/bin/env python2 #!/usr/bin/env python3 #!/home/pi/Desktop/FinalGrom99/finalgrom-master/ti import sys from subprocess import call xas = ["xas99.py", "-b", "-R", "-I", "/home/ralph/ti99/xdt99/lib/"] xga = ["xga99.py"] # original: if call(xas + ["menu.a99"], shell=False): if call([xas + "menu.a99"], shell=False): sys.exit("ERROR: menu.a99") with open("menu.bin", "rb") as f: data = f.read() with open("menu.c", "w") as f: f.write("const uint8_t menu[] PROGMEM = {\n"); for b in data[:-1]: f.write(hex(ord(b)) + ",\n"); f.write(hex(ord(data[-1])) + "};\n"); if call(xga + ["grom.gpl"], shell=False): sys.exit("ERROR: grom.a99") with open("grom.gbc", "rb") as f: data = f.read() with open("grom.c", "w") as f: f.write("const uint8_t grom[] PROGMEM = {\n"); for b in data[:-1]: f.write(hex(ord(b)) + ",\n"); f.write(hex(ord(data[-1])) + "};\n"); if call(xas + ["help.a99"], shell=False): sys.exit("ERROR: help.a99") with open("help.bin", "rb") as f: data = f.read() with open("help.c", "w") as f: f.write("const uint8_t help[] PROGMEM = {\n"); for b in data[:-1]: f.write(hex(ord(b)) + ",\n"); f.write(hex(ord(data[-1])) + "};\n");now it can apparently find the file but getting error :
raise TypeError("expect bytes or str, not %s" % type(filename).__name__)anyone more proficient in python that can steer me?

Due to the time of year and illness, my projects have slowed down. In the meantime, would any be interested, should it succeed, in a Layman instructable? Here or on Instructables? thoughts?

I have a 3B+ and it has not failed me yet. I have not purchased a 4 yet but it is only a matter of time I suppose. I am working towards using the existing GPIO to further many projects in the TI world. Too many projects.....
If worse comes to worse and it is not working the way you wanted... pull the SD and remake the OS/image.. boom bam done.

Well I bought the second 99/4a in case something happened to the first. Which, it seems it did. If anyone is any good at fixing mechanical keyboards, I would be most appreciative. I also have this coming.. just in case. I found it when looking for oddities.
