Hello Ciaran, reading the manual (pdf) I have read that there is some (initial) support for an IDE interface, Glenside for instance. You talk about the need of having a file on the root (working dir) named "hd0.img" with a 512 byter header. Where could I get more info about this work. You had told m...

Hello Ciaran, I have seen that you have uploaded a new snapshot 35997, so I have dowloaded it and made some tests. By now, GDB has always conected to XRoar and I have been able to close XRoar without the need of issuing a 'detach' from GDB. I am going to substitute the previous version by that one. ...

Hi, this is the DEFINITIVE FINAL version for The Hobbit (v16f4) Runs at double speed on any emulation of a CoCo3 too. On real hardware with real floppies it is MANDATORY to use it at the normal speed! Only with CoCo-SDC and other modules like that you can try the double speed: LOADM"HDS":EXEC To pla...

Hi, this is the ULTIMATE FINAL version for The Hobbit (v16f4) The program supports these Disk Operating Systems (DOS) Dragon Data: DDOS10, DDOS11C, DDOS12A, DDOS13A Eurohard: DDOS41 3S: DosPlus4.9B, DosPlus5.0 Grosvenor: DosPlus E6, E7 and E8 To play the game enter: RUN"H1.BIN" and follow instructio...

Aw it complains that SuperDOS E6 (my default as it's what's in my real hardware) is unsupported! Shame ;) Hi Ciaran, I think that right now the Hobbit works nicely with SuperDosE6 ... E8. I will make some more tets because I am correcting a flaw that affects SAVE and LOAD for CoCo3, but hopefully I...

Hi Ciaran, I am sorry, you know I am fan of DosPlus instead :-( And this is a bad situation, there is NO room to add support for more disks operating systems. I am sure you know of this trick, but just to comment it: I use a disk (for my Dragon that has an Eurohard v4.1) to change (into map1) to the...

Hi, a CoCo3 user has commented that the machine could be run at double speed so that the images load faster ... I have done this and have changed the inactivity detection loop so that it takes into account this case to delay some 24" before issuing the WAIT command, now it is version v16f3 So I am u...

Hi, thanks to the pointers and help of people from the maltedmedia group now The Hobbit v16f2 runs nice on a CoCo3 too. You can find all of the info about the project on this web http://retrowiki.es/rw30/viewtopic.php?f=84&t=357&p=4317#p4317 Note: The web is in spanish language. The program has been...
