@DarkLord This shifter replacement looks promising: https://www.exxoshost.co.uk/forum/viewt ... &start=620.
Re: Atari Santa? What’s your wish?
I agree, I would also take one of these.
A very little wish, compared to the others, would be reopen of http://www.gossuin.be/index.php/shop

You only want to come to make a backup of my Atari files on my home server...

But sorry, without covid passport, no entrance here.

Re: Atari Santa? What’s your wish?
Maybe we take a vote in a couple of weeks for the best suggestion!
Falcon with CT60 in rack mountable case. Two STFMs, one upgraded lots. My original STE from when I was a teen with Switchable TOS, 1.44Mb drive, 4MB RAM, Supra Hard Drive and very very yellow case. Mega STE with (currently none working) Crazy Dots 2. Atari 2600 and a Jag. And a mountain of commercial software and lots of hardware addons.

Re: Atari Santa? What’s your wish?
Yes, I've been following that one as well. It's currently on hold, according to Exxos and Icky because of parts supply problems.saulot wrote: ↑Tue Dec 07, 2021 4:59 pm @DarkLord This shifter replacement looks promising: https://www.exxoshost.co.uk/forum/viewt ... &start=620.
They seem to think they might be able to work on it some more after Christmas or the New Year....
Will keep my fingers crossed...

Re: Atari Santa? What’s your wish?
This may come true, perhaps not for this Christmas but I'd love to take a look on CT60 code integration into EmuTOS (and throw in SuperVidel code as well). The biggest issue is https://github.com/mikrosk/ct60tos/blob ... os/sdram.S -- a lot of code to port over, EmuTOS guys wont be happy to include it I presume. Otherwise it's not that hard task, esp. if we already have code for 040 PMMU setup in EmuTOS.
Re: Atari Santa? What’s your wish?
My list from last year isn't bad. The Vampire SA is good but needs a few features to make to a good replacement for a Milan or Firebee.
I'd like to see some sort of Mint ELF or vm and I'd like to be able to do some more dev on my Gemical calendar app.
I think a huge euromillions win could be put to good use.

Re: Atari Santa? What’s your wish?
I wonder if EmuTOS can also integrate what the software graphic expanders (like Fidelity/Videl Inside etc) offer.mikro wrote: ↑Wed Dec 08, 2021 8:10 amThis may come true, perhaps not for this Christmas but I'd love to take a look on CT60 code integration into EmuTOS (and throw in SuperVidel code as well).

Re: Atari Santa? What’s your wish?
My wish for Christmas is more normal energy prices, so I can afford heating my man-cave again... And some spare time to spend there! Oh, and for mikro to come visit me and my Afterburner Falcon so he can add proper Afterburner-support to EmuTOS.

If I was able to give a few presents to my Milan it would be to get USB working and to get the Radeon gfx card working.

Re: Atari Santa? What’s your wish?
Well, you can fit a ribbon cable to run out though say, the cartridge port, and connect to an rgbtohdmi.DarkLord wrote: ↑Tue Dec 07, 2021 4:42 pm To FINALLY get a mass-produced, 1 size fits all ST video to modern
screens adapter.
One that doesn't require a degree in rocket science to install, or dozens
of soldering connections or obtaining parts, files and instructions from
20 different places before you can even begin...
So, while there's some soldering, 16 pins, there's very little else to do, except plug in the rgb2hdmi

Re: Atari Santa? What’s your wish?
I'm going to attempt this (RGB2HDMI) with my STacy. I've got all the parts together (I think) exceptMikerochip wrote: ↑Sat Feb 04, 2023 7:42 pm

for the actual replacement screen. I'm hoping sooner rather than later...
I absolutely guarantee that it will *not* go as smoothly for me as it does for everyone else.
But it's okay - I'm used to that.
