MiSTer FPGA Forum

Just pushed a new release of the C128 core to my GitHub repo. Notable changes are: Z80 is now cycle-correct and the Z80 mode memory layout is fixed. CP/M should work All C128 extra keys implemented. See the keyboard section in the README for the layout Couple of small fixes to VDC This is still a work in progress. The README in the repository docu...

Do you mean "Total Dos Launcher" or "Total Dos Collection"?

pic of my retrocastle psx snac interface Hi. How works this version?. I planned to buy one but I waiting any feedback of this hardware. this one is made to fit the retrocastle IO board and case. you can still use it with other IO board and cases, but you would need to use USB extension cables, as the PSX SNAC board will not be able to fit in flush...

Great work, keep going!

I'm very interested, please let me know!

Super!!!

Just to confirm: Game&Watch Core doesn't work on CRT via analog I/O, isn't?

I took on the task of adding tap support to this core. Progress is going good, but it requires simulation to make sure the taps are being put in ram correctly, and that the core is able to reboot into the correct location. We have one machine code tap working already, and the reworked logic for more taps is working in the simulator. Some parts of ...

Where can I buy a pre-built version?

I recently got myself a DE10 nano and saw there was no C128 core, so I figured this is a nice little project to get back into FPGA programming :D The C128 was my second computer back in the eighties - traded in my C64 for it - and I loved it, and still do. I still have it, and though it needed some repairs over the years it's still functioning. Bu...

A masterpiece, thank you Robert!

Sorry, what is the technical and practical difference betweenn a MicroUSB OTG and not OTG cable to connect Usb hubs directly to MiSTer?

Thanks!

Just to understand: I have the VGA->Composite/S-Video adapter of Antonio (https://www.antoniovillena.es/store/product/vga-composite-s-video-adapter/) and I connect it via component to my Trinitron and I use the "normal" cores. What is the difference with the MikeS1 cores? Thanks! This new technique, applied to the modified cores, outputs...

If some developper/youtuber or MikeS1 wants to try I can send one for free. The final price will be 15 EUR without case or 20 EUR with case. I use the same case than VGA->Composite adapter.

Just bought your current adapter, I book this one also!

I have 10A PSU and nevertheless mister USB hub is inconsistent as well with external (and powered) USB attached...

Ok, I've tried with DirectVideo and no luck: when I try to read a text it hangs. Maybe the culprit is the frame buffer of my CRT, a Sony KV21FT1E Trinitron Tv...

Hi all!

Usually I use my MiSTer on my Trinitron consumer TV with analog board output but I've bought this Hdmi -> Vga DAC (https://ultimatemister.com/product/dire ... i-vga-dac/) to try direct video.

So I've set direct_video=1 and composite_sync=1 on my mister.ini, but I've got a vertical rolling picture...

Why?

I don't know why it doesn't work via I/O. If it requires cutsom modelines, perhaps this one for the Menu could be used, though not sure under what [tag]?

Thanks, I've tried, unfortunately it doesn't work... I will make a try with DirectVideo...

This feature is already present on MiSTer - it's the Help section. You can browse and display pdfs and .txt files. At the moment by default it only adds per-core .md readmes from the MiSTer wiki, but it's easy to either add your own Manuals directory to the fat/docs/ where they live or populate the per-core ones. It works for me on a CRT via Direc...

My guess is you are using run.bat to launch the game which is an exodos script. It deletes files and puts them back based on your audio choice. I’ll bet the delete is happening and the copy is not. Probably something with your dos setup. Compare your files to the ones in Top 300 to find the issue. Thanks flynnsbit, that was the problem! Using the ...

It doesn’t work for me too

Hi all! I run on AO486 last version the game Ultima 7 - ExoDos version - on a fresh install of MS-DOS 6.22 with 595kb free of conventional memory and not EMM386 loaded. So Ultima7 starts, I can insert my name and then when the game should start, I get this error: Sorry, an error has occured. Please write down the following information: File "C...

No way

There is a slow Internet connection, but this one is not always available. Twitter and Facebook are blocked, so I'm writing here. I'm working on Saturn and other cores. Maybe not so fast, but I continue to work. Thank you all for support.

Слава Україні!

Here is a test build by alanswx that I've been testing recently, adding a second floppy drive and the ability to save disks in .nib format to the SD card! I was able to play Adventure Construction Set and Ultima II with it so far. It needs disks to be in .nib to write back to them. This is an acceptable trade-off since this is not a copy-protected...

I don't get it. There isn't a rename command in any of my monkey island scripts. Here it is: https://github.com/flynnsbit/Top300_updates/blob/main/games/THESECRE/mi1/run.bat Where are you seeing that rename line?

It's great to hear about Apple IIGS core in the works, but I really hope somebody can tackle floppy write in this one at some point too. Without it, a large chunk of the important titles from its library is useless, and in general a computer without a save ability is a sad puppy. And it's been a few months since we heard from @RedskullDC...hope th...
