Hello, it seems that I am the only one Dragon user that has an environment containing the Tandy MultiPack with both floppies and the CoCo-SDC. I have been using it a lot of time, but always starting in MAP1 to be able to access the card and the floppies without problems. But lately I have been worki...

I like the way this goes. The more people is interested, the more chances we have that someone develops programs or drivers to use the full 512k in other operating systems besides FUZIX, say NitrOS-9, OS-9 or simply DDOS with BASIC why not?

We need to know some figures before we put our hands on the calcu...

Now, despite the fact we can see the 24 solid colours we are able to obtain, we want to get rid of the combinations that don’t blend into a new colour, so that we only have the good ones. Here are the XRoar screenshot and a photo of the real D64, a very poor photo due to the moiré effect added by th...

The next challenge was to show these four palette combinations on just one screen. The result is shown in this XRoar screenshot and D64 photo 07A-Pmode3-4Quadrants-XRoar-small.jpg 07B-Pmode3-4Quadrants-Photo-small.jpg Upper left quadrant has combinations of colours of palette 0 Upper right quadrant ...
