Re: Broken Sandy Super Q Board Mouse
Thanks Derek. Hmm, if that was the photo you were referring to http://qlforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1430&hilit=super+q+mouse#p12060 , then your Issue 3 board is totally different populated than mine in the left hand area. My board has additional resistors, capacitors and is missing the ...

Re: Loading screen displays into QPC2
I am having problems loading mode 4, 32K screen dumps into QPC2. I set QPC2 to QL Colours, and the screen resolution to 512x256 Enter QPC_QLSCREMU 4 To set the screen address to 131072 ($20000) and mode 4 Not sure why you're experiencing problems here, just wanted to say that the screen address wil...

Re: Supports Trumpcard with File System 2 driver HD-Disks?
Jochen Hassler once modified a SuperQBoard to support HD discs and also mentioned that in theory it should be possible to do this with the Trump-Card, too, but that there might be a space problem. Of course this was still at a time where SMD was not so common, but all Trump-Cards in existence are pr...

Re: 68000 instruction test suite QL
I'm leaving for the Chaos Communication Congress early tomorrow plus a little bit of holidays afterwards, I can dig up the files when I return.
Cheers, Marcel

Re: QMovie v2.00
I have tested Qmovie with SMSQmulator (2.20). I had the movie file stored in an NFA directory (Unix directory) and booted from the qmovie.win file. It worked. The video and sound was little choppy and the voices seemed just a touch high pitched. I tested with the Al Bundy video. This is because cur...

Re: Motion piQtures
I have seen here all magnificent stuff, here is my humble attempt at screen compression. Could the `rle' size be trusted at all? I've had a short look at your code and unfortunately I think it has three problems: 1. Data that cannot be compressed becomes twice as big 2. A 16-bit run-length counter ...

Re: 68000 instruction test suite QL
If the emulator is already advanced enough to run QDOS then yes, I ported a test suite to run within QDOS.

Re: A new QL emulator
On a standard QL, the only interrupt that is actually driving the system is the timer interrupt all 1/50 (1/60) seconds (some exceptions apply which are not relevant here, though). All hardware is polled for "data available" in the polling loop which is triggered by this timer. Not quite....

Re: Motion piQtures
All that's needed is a quick and easy to use routine to convert 32k screens and pic files to RLE compressed GD2 sprites and you're away! But implementing a 'standard' simple compression routine such as RLE for 32k screens and PIC files might be quite interesting in itself. Actually, Im looking into...

Re: Running SMSQ/E
Thanks for all the help, I'll give this a go later today! Does SMSQ/E need unzipping on the Aurora? Or can I unzip it in Windows? As the binary download of SMSQ/E is too big for me to put on a floppy to transfer it. You can unzip on Windows. The binary is normally not EXECed, so you can do without ...
