With extended VDI 640x480x2 (monochrome) it loads and runs fine. Strange. I tested Texel to successfully run on 512x342 with a special font for 80x25 - worked. Color modes below 16 colors were never tested, AFAIK, we didn’t have a machine capable of doing this at the time. I sold my PowerBook 150 (...

I have a question about the release history of Texel. In the text document from the repository, there is mention of releases 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0. I noticed one of the features of 4.0 is export in 123 format. I checked on our 2.30 version and that feature is not implemented. There is no Texel 3.0 or hi...

I agree, this was unlikely be done on purpose. But since Texel uses the multi-tasking capabilities a lot, i would not be surprised if it was not tested very much on SIngleTOS. Towards later version of Texel (esp. after 2.0++) the testing on SingleTOS was minimal. Both Thomas and me had moved to Mag...

Hi, I'm on a mission to develop on real hardware without physical access to the machine. I want to sit at my desk with a Mac and have my atari hardware in a different room/part of the house. So I'm thinking a cosmosex for injecting keyboard/mouse packets remotely and pipe video output (VGA or HDMI ...

Several test suites say that the cert chain of atari-forum is incomplete. E.g.: https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze ... -forum.com
“This server's certificate chain is incomplete. Grade capped to B.”
`sslyze` says: “Certificate is NOT Trusted: unable to get local issuer certificate”

There should be 68000 support in NSA’s »Ghidra«: https://github.com/NationalSecurityAgen ... sors/68000

Is there any other software for the Replay Pro ROM port hardware than the original Replay Pro? Something that works with more than 640x400 / ST-High.

Hi everyone, been away from the Atari scene for while and I’m lost a bit. I got a MegaSTE recently. It came with all bells and whistles (FPU, HDD), I ordered a Nova adapter and I’m waiting for the -hopefully compliant- graphics card. Now, what I’m asking is a TOS/GEMDOS replacement or add on to all...

Hello, trying for the past two days to install an U320 SCSI HDD in my Atari TT. I have a 3M SCSI 50pin cable with three connections and a SCSI 68to50pin adapter. What kind of 68pin to 50pin adapter? Does it terminate the upper 8 bits of wide SCSI bus? Most modern ones don’t do this and are very fin...

Looking for Edison, the text editor. Can only find demo versions of it …

I don't really fancy picking up an amiga for the price they go for just to experiment with old skool graphics and multimedia programs, was interested in if atari st had anything to rival this sort of thing? even if it meant additional hardware purchases (like with the videotoaster) or was it simply...

Though not sure if MSA supports HD?

I never really used MSA, I used TeleDisk and the like – or FCopy Pro.

Nice stuff, thanks! Need to try it.

Deriving from the docs, it doesn’t do ED or HD? (“11x512x83x2 cache” would indicate for me "maximum HyperFormat disk size")

thank for sharing

Bump? Could it be that it’s not possible in the end?

Hi, I’d like to inspect the generated machine language code from a compilation with Lattice C 5.6. In PureC (which I’m familiar with), I’d add debug information to the compiler&linker options, and feed it into Pure Debugger. There I’d see the C source code intermangled with assembler – perfect. I’d ...

Unpopular opinion:

I find it cynical to shout here hooray about a new app that shows a counter for ill & dead people. And you won’t convince me to change my mind by pointing out that the last line also shows the recovered count.

I don't have the software any more. Is it available anywhere? Some search with "atari rom" or "abandonware" will list it for you. Run the software in Hatari (e.g., other emulators would also do the trick), install a LaserJet 4P or similar printer driver in That’s Write, print into a 600dpi PCL file...

There's some discussion to update this to a newer version, let’s see.

For my collection I'm looking for a full registered version of ABACUS spreadsheet, developed by Norbert Spiegel and distributed by MAXON Computers... I try to reach Mr. Spiegel without success... Last known version (according Atari Up to date) was 1.03... Thanks all in advance:-) Cheers! :cheers: I...

I corrected the image. :oops: Is it normal that can not get the 16 colors in 68K with the LINE A :?: Not answering your question, because I learned to avoid LINE A at any cost – if you target only original STs, then going down to the hardware is faster. If you want to avoid direct hardware access, ...

trying to implement a Digisound function in ASM/Pure C for the PSG.

You may have a look at GEMJing (source available, PSG parts by Jörg Hahne in SAMROUTS.S).

Where can he be acquired?

Currently, none of the Alt-RAM solutions for the MegaSTE are sold as ready-to-go-kits, AFAIK. Either wait a bit, or tell the authors you’re interested, or re-create your own one out of schematics.

I hope someone finds this useful! Please feel free to provide any feedback :) I am really excited about this app! I have a Mega STe but no hard drive (well if: an old Protar ACSI wayward) and rather than buying an UltraSatan I would like to use a Raspberry Pi to manage this external drive. I have s...

I’m sure no one’s against your efforts I’d promise to test it on my Windows NT 3.51 and 4.0 machines. x86, Alpha and PowerPC.
