Re: SAM replacement - nearly there

Meh. My glitching is glitching:

Macrocell usage down to 111 though (98 with compact FSM!) as I realised I was being dumb with a few things.

Re: SAM replacement - nearly there

That's super cool. Really hope the density option pulls back a load of macrocells, as some headroom on this design would open up some amazing possibilities. Afraid to say it ends up using more somehow ;) Of course if you were going to take this and use it for a more modern recreation, you'd rip out...

SAM replacement - there!

Edit: it's released now :) I'll post this here too... Working on a SAM replacement - not as a product really, more to prove the concept and work out the bugs so it can be used in future designs. At first I thought the reset detection wasn't working, but after bodging around that I put things back as...

Re: The Dragon Tano Bundle

It's the Tano Masterpack, and I have it down as being "by" "Tano Corporation", though I think a lot of it was by the Programmer's Guild.

I'm sure I've uploaded it here before...

And it's here: https://archive.worldofdragon.org/brows ... ter%20Pack

I have a DH.

What I can’t tell you is - other than it’s a Dragon 64 - what revision of motherboard/PSU was originally in it. Swapped things around too often.

Re: Wifi options fo the Dragon

Rick Uland's been working on "CoCoIO". I don't know much more about it than that - in particular, I'm not even sure if this is CoCo 3 specific. If it's supposed to work on the CoCo 1/2 as well, then hardware-wise it'll doubtless be fine on the Dragon too. Definitely ask first! And you'll have to be ...

Re: Broomsoft WIMP manual

... and indeed the whole disk may be more SuperDOS-specific - now I come to try it, the BOOT sectors don't seem to work under DOSplus, where the archive copy is ok. So maybe just consider this a curiosity ;)

Re: Broomsoft WIMP manual

Attaching my copy of WIMP too - AFAICT the difference from the archive copy (1.4?) is in the Mouseart program.

This version does some POKEs around DIR to correct the output. The archive copy - at least under SuperDOS - ends up prompting to press a key for more after each file listed.

Re: SuperRGB Boards

I'd say almost certainly not - the artefact colours are artefacts of composite video, and that's no longer going to be in the chain.
