  1. Hello guys pancio regularly visits the ABBUC site. Sincerely Mathy
  2. Hello guys, DjayBee That would make it pretty hard I guess to use a MultiJoy8 or MultiJoy16 interface, unless you somehow find a way to select the other 4 or 12 joysticks. I once came up with the idea to make cascadable MultiJoy4s. Where you'd plug one MultiJoy4 into another to create a MultiJoy8 interface and where you could add one or two more to get to 12 or 16 players. The idea was (and still is) that most people in most cases didn't need more than four joysticks at the same time, so they could choose the smaller version of the interface, but if you met a couple of other people at a meeting, you could all plug your multijoy4s together to be able to play with more than four people. I found somebody who was willing to design the hardware for me and make it even an intelligent device that could use more than just joysticks and would even handle auto-fire joysticks. But unfortunately after he made a working prototype, real live caught up with him and development has stopped. 😢😢😢 Sincerely Mathy
  3. Hello Gunstar My sincere condolences Mathy
  4. Hello guys Lots of ideas from lots of people isn't a bad thing. Nobody can think of everything (s)he wants in a (new) product. And it really sucks if you put something "on the market" and later think: "Damn, I could/should have included this or that feature". So at some point the developer has to pick the features/options (s)he likes. Shouldn't be a problem. If you do however not want people to come up with suggestions, ideas, feature requests, etc. just keep your ideas to yourself until it's finished. If it's good enough, people will want it anyhow. But it might miss a feature or option or two that would have made your nice product an even nicer product. And you and not all the people who came top with the idea, will get the credits for that. Sincerely Mathy
  5. Hello Karl Already taken. I've seen the thing "in person". It looks even better in real life. Sincerely Mathy
  6. Hello guys 800 ATXL would confuse people. We already have the 800, 800XL and 800XE. I don't like too many letters in a name of something Atari 8 bit. But if it had to be something like "800 ATXL", I'd prefer "801 ATXL". Didn't Atari already have something planned that was called 1600XL? Make it a portable and you could call it "Carrie". Sincerely Mathy
  7. Hello Brian Where does the heat come from, apart from the shunt resistors? Sincerely Mathy
  8. Hello guys I'd put the RAM on a separate card, that can be accessed by all other cards. Otherwise you'd need RAM on (almost) every card. Sincerely Mathy
  9. Hello guys We only have five slots. It would be nice if the simpler stuff, like SPC, USB and maybe real time clock, maybe even MIDI could be on one card. Some of us might want to use an old printer or ... That reminds me, @pancio developed a bi-directional printer port for the Atari 8 bit computers. Would be nice if the SPC card would have a bidirectional printer port. One of the options for an SPC card could also be a dedicated port for SIO2PC/10502PC. Sincerely Mathy
  10. Hello guys Looks like a happy little tree. Sincerely Mathy
  11. Hello drunkeneye Polish? Hmm. We may have some Polish people in the Atari 8 bit scene, but I'm not sure. 😃🫠😇😂🤪 Sincerely Mathy
  12. Hello Fierodoug5 I found the links on the ABBUC Forum, somebody already tested them. They work! Sincerely Mathy
  13. Hello mozzwald Could this (also) be integrated into the TNFS server code? Sincerely Mathy
  14. Hello guys (m/f/x) Could this be adapted to work from inside the Fujinet? Sincerely Mathy
  15. Hello Kelevance If you have or can get access to a 3D printer, that can be solved. Check this out. Sincerely Mathy
