atari 400/800 slot 3 expansions sum up

Sat Jan 28, 2012 3:54 PM

Hi!

Could someone sum up RAM-SLOT 3 expansion modules for Atari 400/800?
I know there is some kind of graphics card (80 column text-only display i belive), but there might be others i don't know about
It essencial for my work on new personality board, and since i'm finnishing with routing of the later one, it would be nice to have it served rather than digged out ;)

mega st power supply photo request

Sun Jan 22, 2012 4:27 PM

Hi!

I'm in need of atari mega st internal power supply photo - i've desoldered one part that needs to be reinserted in certain polarity assuming its shown on PCB as its usually is, but not this time - now i don't know how it should be soldered

i know there are several diffrent brands and pcb for this power supply, as i'm using another one, but still want to repair this one
this one features quite big sharp optocoupler (white/cream chip) in the middle of pcb

Ultimate1MB - new preorder

Tue Jan 17, 2012 9:31 PM

since i've finnished with shipments of boards from previous run, i'm able to make another 100 boards

preorder will be open for a month

board wasn't altered so there is still a need of adding 2 resistors to RD4 and RD5 signal lines (please see spiflash.org, or previous preorder thread for details)

as for now, boards are partially assemble to the point where semiconductors should be soldered in, this means shorter time for delivery
realistically it will be 3 or 4 months starting from now (some parts have very long lead time, and aren't stocked)

board cost is $50 or 40 euro (170pln), shipment is $7 for up to three boards

preorder will be open for a month, and then i'll contact each of you individually with the details

please put quantity and target machine type in this thread, it will shorten my paper work and prevent situations i'm having right now (few boards are still undelivered because of missing shipping address or machine type)

demo graphics request

Fri Aug 12, 2011 11:24 AM

hi all
i want to code up demo for vbxe and soundoboard
i've already found someone who could make audio track for it, but i'm desperate to get someone who would like to work on visuals

i need title screen with "synchronised theme" (clocks, gearsboxes, timeline, etc) and word "synchro" on it
artwork should be in g2f vbxe cmap mode

apart from that i would need two random graphics if anyone could share

what i can assure is that this demo will be released this year, and it will feature some 3d effects and raster based ones

i know that people on the other side of the pond doesn't apreciate demos much, but i'm still asking

FAT32 XEX loader

Sun Jul 17, 2011 5:01 AM

Hi

I felt like putting this into separate thread

currently there are fat32 handling related routines finnished, and i'm starting with some front-end implementation

for now limits are like this:
max 512 entries/directory (including "..") (mainly because of how much memory it consumes - 32 bytes per entry, 16k of memory total)
max 30 chars of long file name is displayed - anything more than this is truncated - this doesn't pose any problem when doing opening such file or directory
only 16 entries are displayed at once on screen - i'm currently using narrow screen for all this

if all goes well, there will be more interactive version in a few hours
