Re: Porting Mega65 to MiSTer?

I made no such claim. The only thing I’m saying is that the information you’re going off is 5 years out of date, and sorg never said it couldn’t be done, just that it couldn’t be done at the time. As has happened time and time again, almost everything claimed to be “impossible” for MiSTer has appeared after some amount of time. I just find the cons...

Re: Porting Mega65 to MiSTer?

MEGA65 is a FPGA machine, so the core should be very easy to port out to Mister. someone have to buy one :D Well volunteered! Good luck with the code that’s already identified as non synthesisable ;-) You mean the code that was identified as non-synthesizable by Sorgelig in 2017? The same code where he himself said "I think it still needs cou...

Re: Raspbian on de10-nano

Apparently you can run desktop linux with a GUI, it's in the wiki under "extra features".

Re: Frotz/Z-Machine support

the same manner as bbond007 has managed to get Doom, Basilisk II and ScummVM running. Since ScummVM runs Frotz already this seems pointless. https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php?title=Glk/ZCode Thank you, I was not aware of that. I'll test it and if it does everything then I'll retract this, no point in doing the all the work if ScummVM already does...

Re: Frotz/Z-Machine support

Why not port an FPGA core instead? https://github.com/charcole/Z3 Alrhough more simply, why not just use ao486? Because tbh the FPGA core looks very immature, and only supports up to the Z3 version of Z-Machine, while Frotz is very mature and supports all versions as far as I know. Also why not use AO486? Convenience mainly. Same reason as why I h...

Frotz/Z-Machine support

Hi everyone, I'm currently looking into getting the Z-Machine text adventure interpreter Frotz working on the MiSTer in basically the same manner as bbond007 has managed to get Doom, Basilisk II and ScummVM running. Really floating the idea since I know bbond007 has done this a few times before and it'd be great to have some help with this, but wor...
