The Sinclair QL Forum

Thanks to George Gwilt, this has now been fixed - the issue was that the code had two lines in it: MOVE.L RUNDAT,A5 TST.L 8(A5) It should have read: LEA RUNDAT,A5 TST.L 8(A5) Whilst the fact that it was returning the value did not matter too much - on the 68008, the TST.L 8(A%) was causing an error ...

I have checked it here on my Q-emulator with Windows 7 (64 bit) and get the same result - my smsqe is set to use the full screen, so I had an even worse time - pressed the windows key to get a minimised version of q-emulator, and then clicking on any of the q-emulator controls (including the X butto...

You need to be very careful with using the ADATE commands in emulators - I didn't realise that QPC2 (and possibly others) allow this to affect the PC clock directly!

Welcome - any new version of the QubIDE is always very welcome. As you say, the main issue is around the fact that there are no tools ( that I know of ) on the PC to write to a QubIDE formatted CF card. I have emailed Daniele Terdina (the author of q-emulator), in case he has written anything to do ...

If all you need is a timer, have a look at the DIY toolkit TIMER routines..

You should be use PRINT PEEK_W (!!$2C) for starters (as it is only a word).

On QPC2 I just get zeros - so maybe this is not emulated on QPC2 or q-emulator....

PRINT PEEK_L(!!$28) also returns 128 constantly...

Nothing suspicious so far - apart from the very quiet forums!

It seems as though the software works on emulators and on a Gold Card / Super Gold Card. It doesn't run on a Trump Card for some reason. Daniele Terdina has had a quick look and tried throwing all sorts of things at it in q-emulator - it still runs without issues. He has however, noticed a couple of...

Where can we download it for our ancient QLs?
Thanks!

I have emailed Hisoft (again) to see if it can be released into the public domain - it is still commercial software subject to copyright restrictions.

This seems a really odd problem. QL Flightdeck works fine on QPC2 and Q-emulator. See the demo version: http://www.rwapadventures.com/downloads/flight.zip However, when I try running it on a real QL, it shows the instrumentation panel, beeps and then freezes the system !! I just can't think of a rea...
