Re: all my Dragon accessories on tormod.me
very nice indeed, congrats Tormod I can't wait to put my hands on the +32K cartridge. Having the MPI on my Dragon64, this add-on would allow access to 96k RAM and 32k ROM, paging of course, but all in all, accessing some 128k! And it could be used on my unexpanded Dragon32 to access 64k Ram and use ...

Re: ASCII to CAS in Perl?
Tony, I think that you don't need to do anything. If you just want to load an ASCII file that contains a BASIC Dragon program, just use DW4 and my dweeb LDA That way I loaded a big basic program with the name ELIZA.BAS without problems into my Dragon64. You can find the dweeb here (in versions: norm...

Re: File2VDK anyone?
Hi,
file2dsk is a program to create CoCo discs 35 tracks instead of 40.
I think it would be better to use Rolf Michelsen's program DragonTools
You will just need a clean disc to begin with.
cheers

Re: File2VDK anyone?
Hi, these are the fields and the values I use to put in them: * Fields description for VDK header * 0 2 signature ('dk') must be in lowercase * 2 2 Header length ($0C,$00) total header length (2 bytes, but first goes the LSB then the MSB) * 4 1 VDK version - actual ($10) VDK format version. By now $...

Re: File2VDK anyone?
@utz,
the DSK format is exactly the same than the VDK but without the header.
cheers

Ps. in order to have compatibility with XRoar and DW4 it is better having the VDK files have a 256byte header

Re: XRoar with MPI and two cartridges
Hello Ciaran, one and only one time of the many tests I have done, the POKE&HFF7F,0 has started Orchestra90, by luck for sure. The other times it has just hanged, but calling a hard reset Orchestra90 is started OK. Clearly that software was developped for the CoCo as the keyboard map must be changed...

Re: XRoar with MPI and two cartridges
Hi Ciaran, that's interesting ... I have made the POKE&HFF7F,&H33 to select bank 3 and then DIR works flawlessly, good! But then if I want to start the Orchestra cartridge, I cannot enter POKE&HFF7F,0 to select bank 0 because then the Dragon hangs. Fortunately, while developping my extender, I made ...
