Re: Usb hub wiring colors

Do you have a multimeter? My suggestion woud be to find ground/vcc on where you intend to solder from, then the wiring (usually) goes:

  • Ground
  • Data+
  • Data-
  • VCC

Without seeing the USB hub you plan to use, I can't suggest much more.

Re: Can you hide certain cores based on .ini?

I'm not aware of any way of configuring the system as you require, but you may be better off buying a few SD cards and having separate installations, only installing the cores you need for each use case?

Re: NAS vs SD vs HDD Speed

I know it's not in the title, but I've used an SSD for the longest time and never experienced any of these issues on the PlayStation core. Given an SSD has a significantly smaller random access time, I guess this helps to verify FPGAzumspass' latency suggestion?

Re: Minimig improvements? (Tentative discussion)

That's a hell of a utopia for FPGA Amiga!
I think really the next logical step would be to get the timings right on AGA/68020 (I think A500/68000 is already accurate) then expand on that.
Honestly though, while I appreciate any improvements, Minimig for me has just worked.

Dr Matt Regan - ZX Spectrum breadboard recreation

If any of you are interested, this guy has recreated a ZX Spectrum from scratch, replacing the ULA with lookup ROM and using all standard logic. He's made a few changes to allow VGA output too!

This is the final video, his channel goes into how he engineered his solution and well worth it.

Re: Is the Atari Falcon 030 possible in MiSTer?

I don't think size is such a problem. The whole Amiga core uses about 1/3 of the MiSTer fpga and it comes with 68000 and 68020 support and AGA graphics. So a Falcon shouldn't take up 3 times of this. Back in the 90's Moore's Law was truly in effect. So transistor counts were going up exponentially. An interesting piece of trivia: The original Moto...
