great video and accelerator
thanks

Cyprian

there are two methods:
A) two the BLiTTER passes: 1) mask AND destination; 2) sprite OR destination.
B) "compiled sprites" - where the CPU drives the BLiTTER fore every sprite's horizontal line. Endmask 1/2/3 is used for masking.

great
@SkylineDave thanks

It _should_ now be borderline usable (performance-wise) even in Firefox.

great. many thanks!

Amazing to see that! Though, it doesn't appear to be in working condition? it's cool as hell to see still! Talk about really getting use out of that machine. I heard that it works ok, there is a empty hole for the monitor above the ST. It seems that it was broken and the owner asked for a new ST to...

The Atari ST was used with the CNC machine. The system was called STYLE CCM and it was produced by that company: https://www.stylecncmachines.com/about-us/ overons_CCM-STYLE-tech[1].jpg And this week "Atari-User" reported on our Polish forum that someone in Poland still uses it for work: 1...

Both 16bits signed

Cyprian

it looks cool

Cyprian

I have no answer for your question but I wonder about that Atari ST Raspberry Pi case. Can you please show that case?

Cyprian

in additional to CrossTOS and Runtos there is also ParaTos https://github.com/kelihlodversson/ParaTos

Amiga mini is out of my interest.

Anyway why not run Atari ST on the Atari:

never heard about ATARI TEX GIGA-ST. looks cool

btw, I see there is it's TOS 1.07: http://thethalionsource.w4f.eu/Artikel/fua.htm

Cyprian

it seems it was Falcon 040, but I'm not sure because the sockets are in a bit different location.
There you can find more pictures: https://www.maedicke.de/atari/hardware/falcon040.htm

Best Atari Falcon 030 / Microbox photo I've ever seen: https://www.wizztronics.com/microbox.html ATARI FALCON030-MICROBOX Number1_SMALL.jpg So that would have possibly fit into this? microbox.jpg I mean this one below. Microbox 030 motherboard front sockets match the holes in this case. WIZhr4b[1]....

Cyprian

No, the other case, similar to PSX

10 bits means 2048 bytes (1024 words), it is quite a lot,
and if I'm not wrong this is an offset between end of one line to the beginning of the next line.

it's worth to investigate that topic more

well done Artur

Cyprian

LINE-A variables modification is a good way, and you can do it from AUTO, because VDI isn't initialized yet.
Overscan driver works in that way.

Cyprian

That TTL input is not dedicated for the ST, but you can use SACRT. Btw. There were 8 bit Atari for France market, where instead of RF output was digital TTL video output. I wonder whether this slot is compatible with that Atari Ok I found it - Atari 800 - DIN 8 similar but it seems not the same: htt...

have you tried VASM in Devpac compatible mode?

Code: Select all

Cyprian

@MetalCruncher sounds interesting.
can you please elaborate it more?

Cyprian

I'm not sure if this is the case, but somewhere on Atari-forum was posted info that one ACSI pin isn't well isolated from and the cartridge port 'noises'. Which does mean that e.g. NetUSBee may disrupt ACSI hardrive work.

found it:
