intvnut Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 I never updated my Lto. Works just fine. What's in the update anyway. Short version: Some features for sorting ROMs, a launcher for jzIntv, and a few stability fixes and tweaks for edge cases. Long version: See the changelog.

+intvsteve Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 FWIW, I downloaded the sources for all the different versions released at the site, built debug versions, and launched. My current ROM list under test has about 225 ROMs, and the cart has ... oh, i don't know. Maybe approxmately that number, but "weird" menu layout -- some test ROMs and some goofy stuff like 100 copies of the same ROM in a folder, etc. Anyway, on the same system, I detected no qualitative difference... about 5 seconds 'validating' on device connect. The exact number is meaningless to anyone but my setup on my system -- the interesting part is that it does not seem to vary by any noticeable amount. That doesn't mean that things did not change or somehow get worse in any obvious way. It does mean that it's perhaps more subtle -- why some systems may seem more affected than others. Still, there are performance improvements to be made here, and I'm exploring them, and they will be made. Hopefully they'll help everyone when they roll out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the "sped up" next version of the software rolls out will we just find it on the LTO site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intvnut Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 When the "sped up" next version of the software rolls out will we just find it on the LTO site? It'll go up on the LTO Flash GUI webpage. Also, if you have it enabled, the GUI will alert you that an update is available if it sees an update's been posted to the website. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+intvsteve Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I'm awaiting some feedback on the progress made so far. I did find that for Windows users, when support for launching jzIntv was added, a potential slowdown crept in - but the core issue some of you have noticed has been there since the beginning. And, as intvnut mentioned, when a new release happens, it'll be at the website. Those who haven't disabled the "check for udpates when launched" will be annoyed by a dialog telling you there's an update the next time you run the UI.

+intvsteve Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Trying something new this time for an update to the LTO Flash! User Interface software - an open "Beta channel". This update doesn't announce itself. Thanks to those of you who have been patient and brave enough to test out some performance upgrades! Others can now benefit. In this update: User interface will be much more responsive when changing menu layout while cartridge is attached to the computer LTO Flash! hardware identification makes a first pass attempt that does not require communicating with the device Some internal tweaks specific to macOS Sierra Includes latest build of jzIntv If you've noticed slowdowns in the user interface when the cartridge attached to your computer while making changes to the menu layout, this update is for you! This may be noticeable when a large number of ROMs are in the menu. You can go to the download page here to locate the 'Beta' download section. Downloads are available for Windows (Vista and newer) and macOS (Mac OS X 10.7 and newer). Sorry, no Windows xp build. If needed, a Windows xp build can be made available. The download page now also includes links to download older versions of the software. Does the notion of a separate "beta channel" and possibly "alpha channel" at that page interest anyone? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjchamp3 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Is there an exit to main menu from the game IF so that be great IF not make it an update? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClassicGMR Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 I use an Intellivision II. For me I hold the reset button longer than it would take to reset the game but not long enough to turn the system off. That takes me back to the menu. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you hold the reset button approx 2 to 3 seconds, it will reset to the LTO Flash! menu, rather than the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This last week, I've been slow on email, so if it was just in the last few days, I haven't gotten to my inbox yet. I have plenty of units here ready to go, however.

+SoulBuster Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 (edited) From what I know you can send an International money order in US dollars to the address in the link below (Direct Order). Make sure you ask if it is an international money order that can be cashed in the US., http://ltoflash.leftturnonly.info Edited July 28, 2017 by SoulBuster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bikeguychicago Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 (edited) For anyone who uses VGCollect.com to manage their collection: I've added an entry for LTO Flash! to the database (since I couldn't find an entry when searching for it). The entry can be found here. Edited January 17, 2018 by bikeguychicago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janzl Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Sorry to bump this thread but I am having trouble inserting my LTO Flash into the slot of the Intellivoice. It just doesn't fit. Is anyone else having this problem? Can't find any info on it. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
