atrax27407 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 I have a couple of EA5 files that I would like to convert to a .bin file to burn into an EPROM. Any ideas how to do it? The files are attached. munchbeta.dsk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+adamantyr Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 You can do it by hand with a hex editor, if you use TI99Dir to extract the file to a PC file and strip off the 128 byte header at the start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fritz442 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 I'm not the best at it but try this. MunchManBeta3.BIN 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+chue Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 I had to add a "9" to the filename to get it to run in Classic 99: MunchManBeta3_9.bin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Yes--early on, inverted images ended with a 3 and non-inverted images ended with an 8. This led to some confusion, as he chips for both types had a 3 in them. The current standarf is to use a 9 to indicate inverted files on a 73LS379-type board, and an 8 for non-inverted files on a 74LS378-type board. The 8 files will also work on a 74LS377-type board without modification. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tursi Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 The filename is also only important if you ask Classic99 to autodetect, instead of specifying the cartridge type in the INI. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atrax27407 Posted February 5, 2019 Author Share Posted February 5, 2019 A lot of modern laptops don't have a Scroll Lock key on the keyboard.That is something that is needed if you are going to use Classic99 to covert EA5 files to .bin files. There is a work-around. In Windows 7 and higher, type "osk" (without the quotes) in the search bar and an on board system keyboard will appear which allows you to turn off/on the scroll lock by selecting the appropriate key.

I don't think you need to press Scroll Lock in Classic99 any longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tursi Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Not for a while now... the scroll lock function is replaced by the debugger window merely being open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GDMike Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 Can the 2 files, Ragasm and Ragasn be done the same way? I just like using this assembler but I don't have the source code. I'm running a PEB with flashrom99. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
