fernando marrin Posted October 25, 2012 Author Share Posted October 25, 2012 nobody can test ALL games ,all variations,all formats, fine lets get down compatibility to 97.264875553115558569 + % if that's what makes you happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 nobody can test ALL games ,all variations,all formats, fine lets get down compatibility to 97.264875553115558569 + % if that's what makes you happy Unfortunately you feel offended. You don't get my point, but that is ok. MyIDE has an 'infamous' reputation. Sijmen and Steven Tucker are doing a wonderful job on creating something fabulous. You are enthusiastic about it, and you post excited posts about this nice upgrade. You seem not to understand, that making announcements like 'this will run 100% of the games' is not helping the 'MyIDE' getting a better/serious reputation. Serious! People with a bit more knowledge, do immediately understand that this '100%' claim will never be serious. Sijmen would never claim 100% compatibility. Qmeg OS (Another fabulous os) does not run 100% of the software. And like I write, the latest release of the standard XL/XE OS (the one with the 128KB memory test in the selftest in XE) is not 100% compatible. I'm not into catching flies... and i'm not into some 'funny' percentage with a zillion numbers after the point. No. I only wanted to say: don't be foolish, and never claim 100% compatibility. At least if you want to make a serious message about this fabulous interface. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow there's even a list of the games compatible/tested ! now i understand... ...why even if you were suggested, were not given test carts. pd: My test system has an ultimate 1mb board installed, so i have tested qmeg, and compatibility is lower, but yu may need somebody with "more knowledge" to assure it to you.

Shawn Jefferson Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 (edited) Two of the issues with compatibility and MyIDE, that I don't think can be fixed due to the hardware design: 1. Games that don't use the OS keyboard routines, or bypass them: this makes switching disks via the MyIDE hotkeys impossible. Gauntlet used to be one of these (IIRC). 2. Games that use their own SIO routines, bypassing the MyIDE ROM SIO routines: Seven Cities of Gold for instance.

Marius Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Fernando... Although I wrote before not to spend one more word about this I will try one more time. You simply do not understand the comments from others. Those people are NOT looking for ways they can play their games!! They do explain what still serious design 'flaws' are! It is no problem for me personally. I am very happy with myide. But it is not 100% perfect. The limitation that images can not be swapped as soon as the Os is switched off (like also in the Brundles I mentioned before!) is a pity. Try to understand THAT. We are not looking for ways of running those games, since we already can run those games from original hardware like disk drives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Ofcourse there always will be hacks. But hacks are not the right solution. It's nice to have hacks... but it is better to search for solutions the device will run those 'exotic' titles too. I understand very well that the limits of what is possible are reached. MyIDE II is a fabulous interface, with incredible features. I can really recommend anyone to go using it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can really recommend anyone to go using it. of course no device is perfect, i totally agree on that... and the limits of what is possible are nearly reached... but ...The beauty of this one is that it offers 4 ways to run a program so that if an "exotic" game does not run from myide area it can from other one, (like cart) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr-atari Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Gyruss from disk2.atr (16mb) will never work on MyIDE-II. The program writes zero's to D500-D5FF. Messing up the cartridge boot configuration. You need a patched version. Later! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
