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=68&p=4316#p4316 Note: The web is in spanish language. The program supports ...

Hi Ciaran,
I have not tried this one!
But I have read that any object can be used as a weapon, so you can even use the skull
of a goblin to attack an enemy and if you are lucky enough you might kill it!

Hi Ciaran, I am testing with snapshot 33347 and can confirm that once GDB has got control over XRoar there is no way to close Xroar. Sometimes (a few times) it has refused to connect to XRoar too ... as previous versions. I can work with that, I just have to remember to send a 'detach' from GDB and ...

Hi, finally I can share with you the 'probably' final version of the port of the game "The Hobbit" from Spectrum48 to 6809-CoCo2 Fortunately, I have worked out a source file that when compiled, produces a binary file that works in a Dragon and in a CoCo2 as well. It has been a long project, almost t...

Hi Ciaran,
sorry, I had not seen it before!
I just downloaded the new version.
Will make some tests when I have the time.
I will tell you the results ...

Thanks a lot!

Hi Ciaran, of course, when it refuses to connect, there is no log file anywhere ... But, today it has been connecting more than 90% of the times and I have done quite a lot of debugging! I don't know if there is a way to tell gdb to wait a bit more time before sending the 'invalid remote reply" mess...

Hi Ciaran, now that you have sorted out the error problems when there are no disks in the drives, I am using the last snapshot 2016-32341 but this one fails to connect to GDB half the times I try. On the other hand, the old snapshot 2015-33312 connects always at first attempt! I include here the scr...

Good to hear it's better, though it raises more questions: I thought that timeout was a software thing, so being quicker under emulation sounds wrong ;) I can assure you that the real thing makes me go mad ... Why the hell must I wait for soooo long to get a simple error (say not ready, IV or whate...

Hi Ciaran, GREAT NEWS! sorry, I have been making a few tests and forgot to tell you Tested: DDOS11C, DDOS13A, DDOS4.1, DosPlus5.0 and they all mimic, now, the real thing behaviour. I mean when no disc in the drive it makes some retries and finally it returns the error to the caller, so the program c...
