Your wish came true in record time

Yeah, thanks to Pierco, I've asked it!

Thanks!

Hi all! I've searched in the official Readme of Spectrum Core, I've read this thread https://misterfpga.org/viewtopic.php?t=1458, but still I can't find a tutorial on how to use the DIVMMC feature. So far, I've copied the ESXDos files boot on a real SD card FAT16 formatted inserted in the second SD card slot either in .VHD image, renamed ESXMMC.BIN...

And what about writing an image of my originals not protected disks? Thanks!

C64 OS has just been released: https://c64os.com/ One of the "recommended" setups is C128, wonder if it would work on this core (baring the fact it's somewhat costly, especially seeing as there is no digital download option). According to the site, we would need a SD2IEC drive to begin with. Maybe it would work with an SNAC2IEC adapter l...

Do any games still not run at this point? It seems to be fantastically compatible in my tests now. I am very surprised that Robert can keep finding things to fix. Even now its pretty much daily that he adds new updates to this core, often fixing very specific things or optimizing something to use maybe just a few CPU cycles less to make it faster,...

I will share my work-in-progress by the end of this week. Initially I had wanted to open-source the toolbox when it reaches a minimally viable state, so that it'd be at least structurally sane and usable for a minimal purpose. I probably won't achieve that goal before next Sunday. I'm now focusing on a few things: 1. Documenting things so that the...

Hi there, in last days I've test the "optimal" configuration for a0486 on my 31khz CRT 17" SVGA Monitor (Lg Studioworks 700S Svga, h 30 ~ 70 kHz, v 50 ~ 160 H, resolution: 1280 x 1024 / 60Hz). My goal is to most possible close to the original Dos experience, so I've connected my MiSTer to the monitor via analog output and I've set in...

PC 286: many important games like The secret of Monkey Island were made for THIS processor in mind.

Any news about this promising core? It will reproduce also 286 cpu?

Hi guys! Great job! So is there an adapter to buy to use with the Mike's cores?

Is it possible to resize a VHD? I've tried with "IDE 0-1 Top 300 DOS Games.vhd", it is correctly mounted in Windows 11, but if I try to resize it with the GUI it says it can't figure out a minimum and maximum size and with DISKPART it says that this type of file system is not supported. Maybe there is an alternative for Linux / MacOS? Tha...

Me too I've tried TDL small: same bug.

Due to said circumstances, the core is untested this time, sorry.

I also have plans to allow the Jupiter Ace core to use this keyboard, but I haven't found enough time yet.

Thanks!!!

Hi! Do you continue to support the ZX Spectrum recreated, @pgimeno?

Hi!

Is it possibile to use this SD based Memory Card on MiSTer core: https://8bitmods.com/memcard-pro-for-pl ... ssic-grey/

Hi all!

I've watched yesterday a video of The 8 Bit Guy that explains how and why CGA 4 colors looked like 16 colors in composite: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=niKblgZupOc.

So today I've used the PCXT core via composite output but I didn't get the 16 colors, maybe it has to be implemented by code in the core?

On crt? If so, and you have access to an hdmi based display, attach that, access the OSD->Audio & Video and make sure Border is enabled (On). Another option you can try that has helped others when their CRT is not sync'ing is to grab a cartridge rom, like Basic, and saving it as boot1.rom. Thanks Flandango, it works on CRT now! Booting the cor...

problem is that OSD menu doesn't show...

Me too I'm on Pal, it doesn't work.

Released today!

Thanks a lot @bbond007 and @spark2k06!

Hi all!

I've tried to automatically mount the serial drive at MiSTer startup with:
in "linux/user-startup.sh" but it doesn't work, why?

What kind of converter / Snac have I to buy to make work my Vic 20 paddles and Atari paddles with MiSTer?

Sorry, is this core runnable on CRT 31khz VgA monitor?

Thanks!

Hi all! I own a MiSTer setup with analog board. I have a second - spare Nano 10 + case + usb hub so I'm considering to buy a digital board with dual ram like this (https://ultimatemister.com/product/dual-ram-io-upgrade-kit/) to assemble a second MiSTer. But is it worth it? Are there some core that don't run on dual ram setup? What problem can I hav...

Hi all and thanks for your GREAT work! When the core will be able to run on CRT Vga 31khz?

You need to create a MGL file. You will have an example below. Some elements may need to be adapt. <rbf> the path where the RBF is deployed <setname> the name of the core MGLFILE; <mistergamedescription> <rbf>_Computers/Minimig</rbf> <setname>MinimiShapeshifter</setname> </mistergamedescription> In this case the MGL file will search datas in games...

As from last main MiSTer update - MGL: add setname tag to make a separate profiles for same core." This is the diff in GitHub: https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/Main_MiSTer/commit/969de280564435b2a9a1f3263f6feb226810e1c5 So, how can now we launch two separate profiles for the same core (eg "Minimig Amiga" and "Minimi Shapeshifter&...
