Re: Premier's Sprite Graphics Board

Just going to add a 'woah, neat!' to this thread. So if you can make up the ribbon cable for this, might we see the card working at the Meetup?

Re: Premier's Sprite Graphics Board

Yes, looks like he'll definitely be there! @pernod70 - not sure who you are IRL :) Will you be coming to the event? If not, a bit closer to the date, have a think what you'd like to know about the board and we'll do our best to get all the photos and dumps you might want on the day!

Re: Premier's Sprite Graphics Board

Let me nudge the owner again. There's a small chance he'll be in the UK at the same time as the Dragon Meetup, which would be wonderful if he could - then we could actually see it in action! I'll keep you posted.

Re: Retro Man Cave -- Dragon 32 Trash to Treasure

Not a bad video! Although I did want to point out that wrinkled stickers are one of the features of Dragon ownership :)

Re: Dragon Meetup 2019

Hi all! Just getting the publicity engine warmed up for this year's Meetup :) - There's an event page at the Museum now, would everyone involved (or who would like to be involved) give it a once over for typos, errors etc before I put it on Facebook and Twitter too. Also, anyone like to add anything...

Re: Serial Access on a Dragon 64

Doh, I knew it would be something obvious. And I was sitting there thinking what a great environment DLOAD/Drivewire is when it's all set up, without it occurring to me it's also the problem :) I'll move the SEROUT and SERIN ROM code into my own program, then it should run on my machine and anyone e...

Don't you just hate it when you fall at the first hurdle? I'm trying to write something to the serial port on my D64. I know the port works because if I do a "POKE &HFF04,67", a letter C appears on my terminal (I've also checked with Chatview under Flex). So, inspired by Duncan's example on P337 of ...

Dragon Meetup 2019

Okay, I know this is a little early notice, but slots were filling up at the museum, so I just grabbed us a date! This year, we'll have the meetup on July 6th - I hope that's okay for everyone. I think there'd plenty of new stuff to show - John Whitworth will probably have cloned every single expans...

Re: File2VDK anyone?

Thanks to you both, Bosco and Pere! It always worries me how much I forget if I don't do this for a while - although it does come flooding back! I'm slightly embarrassed to see I've asked similar questions before over the years - although reading back over my old posts does refresh my memory :) Pere...
