Re: HxC SD Floppy Emulator

Always wanted one of those emulators - but can never justify the expense.

Maybe it's about time we created that SDcard/multicard thing?! - I think someone was threatening to work on it, so I stopped thinking about the project and started coming up far less useful ideas for Dragon hardware. :)

Re: Schematics of Dragon Cartridges?

Cool. I like the old symbols - but can never remember them. I'm not too hot with the the newer ones either mind. :) Just noticed a mistake in my note about the chip selection: Low on A12 creates a low on CE1 and a high on CE2 I should amend the graphic really... but I think most people will realise ...

Re: My Dragon cartridge boards (actually work!!!)

GOD DAMN!!! I've just spent a few days trying to make a second (slightly better) ROM programmer, and in the process discovered a mistake on my boards. I forgot to check if the NAND gates I was using needed a pull up resistor to turn 0s into 1s. It turns out that they do - which means that OE* on the...

Re: Pipe Frenzy and Tunnel Jumper by Jim Gerrie

I also noticed somewhere that someone has a DSi version of Xroar. Any idea how to get that one running? I have a DSi but don't know how you can get executables to run on it. You need something like this: http://www.r4i-sdhc.com/aboute.asp and a micro-SD card - can't remember if my R4 3DS came with ...

Re: Pitman by Yutaka Isokawa

Do you have a .cas or rom file for Dungeon Crawl? Would love to play that on a real Dragon and don't have DOS.
