Could be cool to go but not sure the wife like the $650 air ticket + hotels

Yes Cmart, but he will only make it as a ROM which you have to load from your LTO Flash, so you will never play that game Special CMART VERSION....

By the way, is it possible to enable all 32K on an ADAM ?

The SGM does not "boot" with 24K, it need to get a command to enable it. If its An Adam its not safe to enable the SGM ram, so first you check for "is it an Adam" if not you can enable 24/32k.

you forget Cmart not only does Chris know a lot about Intellivision (and to little about how to use the LTO flash), but he also have fun comments and jokes, which I like

I did a small color test rom, and it seems like I can actually adjust the colors to match better, I cant compare to the RF, cause I have no TVs that can adjust to the NTSC output. But anyway, it can be ajusted, the problem is I use the same tv for ColecoVision, Memotech MTX, C64 and Vic20, and if it looks good at the Intellivision, it will look bad at the other platforms, but maybe I just need to adjust when needed.

The shark looks black, but with some blue ghosting, but I think there is a problem, cause a homebrew game i was working on, shows pink color, but emulator shows light blue. I have been looking at rgb values for what I see, I cant see any pattern, most colors looks ok. I think I better try to find or code a color test mode, to compare. I tried to fire Shark Shark up again, I guess the plants in the ocean should fade between two green colors, but those seems to fade between almost invisible and some kind of blue. Maybe my "green" value is to weak, which will make light blue more like magenta, and make the green plants more or less cyan. But again, I dont see a any problems in Super Minefield, it looks good compared to Emulator colors. I know the colors from the STIC can be a big subject, Joe have been talking about its not 100% clear how the colors should look, so maybe there are no Official documents shows the RGB values on each color. For the Colecovision VDP we have those: Colour Y R-Y B-Y R G B R G B 0 Transparent 1 Black 0.00 0.47 0.47 0.00 0.00 0.00 0 0 0 2 Medium green 0.53 0.07 0.20 0.13 0.79 0.26 33 200 66 3 Light green 0.67 0.17 0.27 0.37 0.86 0.47 94 220 120 4 Dark blue 0.40 0.40 1.00 0.33 0.33 0.93 84 85 237 5 Light blue 0.53 0.43 0.93 0.49 0.46 0.99 125 118 252 6 Dark red 0.47 0.83 0.30 0.83 0.32 0.30 212 82 77 7 Cyan 0.73 0.00 0.70 0.26 0.92 0.96 66 235 245 8 Medium red 0.53 0.93 0.27 0.99 0.33 0.33 252 85 84 9 Light red 0.67 0.93 0.27 1.13! 0.47 0.47 255 121 120 A Dark yellow 0.73 0.57 0.07 0.83 0.76 0.33 212 193 84 B Light yellow 0.80 0.57 0.17 0.90 0.81 0.50 230 206 128 C Dark green 0.47 0.13 0.23 0.13 0.69 0.23 33 176 59 D Magenta 0.53 0.73 0.67 0.79 0.36 0.73 201 91 186 E Gray 0.80 0.47 0.47 0.80 0.80 0.80 204 204 204 F White 1.00 0.47 0.47 1.00 1.00 1.00 255 255 255

Yes its an NTSC console.

Hi I installed a composite mod a while back, its a 2609/NTSC but after I played Shark Shark it seems like some colors are a bit off. The Jellyfish is Magenta instead of Light Blue (or Cyan) There are also something with the plants. https://oshpark.com/shared_projects/Y9AoW16r I used new components, but maybe a bad solder job? Or should I try to change some values on the resistors or capacitors ?

if they made cib releases in different colors, the moneys keeps floating from Vancouver

I think its only a ROM release, and we all know you master the LTO flash so good.

I listen to the first 1.5 hours until now

you can test if there is a ay psg present. and you also need to test for if its an adam, by checking the data in memory. Cause you its not safe to enable the sgm memory if its an adam. to test if there is an ay processor, you can write a value to a register, and read it back.

Hi What games for a 6 Year old girl, who is used to play Ipad games

is it possible to find replacement part batteries for the PS3 controller, mine dont charge too, and it dont even try to charge, i tried with another cable too. Could be the charge circuit?, cause even if the battery was dead I think it would still try to charge ?

you can exchange "CP 0" with "AND A" or "OR A" to save one byte and a few tstates

Hi. Maybe it have been up before, but why did they maybe Intellivision II, incompatible with some games? Why make it incompatible ? cause they wanted to lock out 3rd party games? In commercials they actually said "It play all your games the old intellivision plays" Sony Playstation, had many versions too, but the "Ps One" still plays games which was programmed for the 1st version. I know its about some changes in the Exec, but I dont think it was a mistake, I am quite sure they had a reason to block those games ?

I could not get the signal from an USA NTSC INTELLIVISION, to work at any of the LCD tvs i had access to. I ended up make a composite mod for my Intellivision, maybe the Aquarius is a diffirent story. I remember i could get a color fuzzy picture, but no sound using the analog tv tuner, but the main problem is the TV tune on different frequencies in EU than in USA.

A little OT, but if any one develop using Intybasic at Intellivision, you can also configure output bitmap statements

It actually works with 8 directions. Cause it check each bit for up,down,left,right. So if your routine is doing the same for up+left as up and left, it cover that too. Normaly I use those routines to convert to another bit pattern, cause i normaly do game conversion from other systems. So i "emulate" a Sega SG-1000 game controller bit pattern or MSX joystick etc. My code work like this: is it a up then y=y-1 is it a down then y=y+1 is it a left then x=x-1 is it a right then x=x+1 is it a fire then do something so press up+left will do y=y-1 and x=x-1

Thats a way to do it too, but I think this routine is slower and take up more space than mine anyway its not a problem. If you use HL besure to push and pop it, if you are sure you dont use HL before you call your joystick routine, its not a problem, else you would want to push hl just before you set the H,0, and pop it on each of the adresses in JOY_DIR_TABLE.

forgot the JSUD routine. JSUD: ret

I always use the ports directly, not any bios calls. I only use bios to turn of the soundchip in the start of the code. Here is the code I used, notice the 3 nops to ensure it work on ADAM computers. JSUP: out ($c0),a nop nop nop in a,($fc) bit 0,a jr nz,JSLEFT **** CODE for JOYSTICK UP ***** JSLEFT: bit 3,a jr nz,JSRIGHT **** CODE for JOYSTICK LEFT ***** JSRIGHT:bit 1,a jr nz,JSHOME **** CODE for JOYSTICK RIGHT ***** JSHOME: bit 6,a jr nz,JSDOWN **** CODE for JOYSTICK FIRE ***** JSDOWN: bit 2,a jr nz,JSUD **** CODE for JOYSTICK DOWN *****

I guess is how you define it, the "chipset" was designed by General Instruments.
