And some more QL "MODE8i" pictures from MS adventures: IMG_0953.JPG Mr. Guru seems to have at least partially recovered from his Jalapeño issue... IMG_0952.JPG I think that doesn't look too bad for a QL in MODE 8. I also have one or the other crash/hang when displaying pictures. Needs a bi...

Slowly, but steadily, we seem to be gettting somewhere: IMG_0956.JPG IMG_0955.JPG IMG_0954.JPG Unfortunately, I still have this annoying flickering mentioned in the other thread. I put a delay loop into my keyboard loop, which improved things a bit, but the issue is still there. Today, I have not te...

Congrats, Norman.

Not on QL topics, but rather something more modern, I suppose?

Depending on your ROM version, it might be enough to do a simple
somewhere in the program flow. Replace line 110 with whatever you want to have done in case of an error

For my Magnetic Scrolls interpreter mentioned in this thread , I'm currently trying to implement a 27-color picture display using interlacing first and second screen - much like the method described by Omega here . Up to now, the method works fine on an expanded QL with a Trump Card. It displays (re...

How's this? IMG_0947.JPG (Mr. Guru rendered as an interlaced picture - 57 colors - using the dithvide method. Otherwise not modified from original) Still needs a bit of tweaking, apparently. But much better already, I think. The method is actually much easier than I first thought. And My monitors ge...

What's close to a software masterpiece in my opinion is FileInfo II It works silently in the background but lifts QDOS to an entirely new level, allowing workflows that are much more "modern" and closer to for example how Windows or MacOS work. On my systems, it is the main enabler that ma...

Stephen, both documentation and source code for the XTC68 libs are part of the C68 distribution (the libraries are the same and built from the very same sources). Check Dilwyn's site. 2.8.9 void do_sound( int duration, int pitch, int pitch2, int wrap, int g_x, int g_y,int fuzz, int random) QDOS call...

Indeed I would reckon this box used to originally hold a Gold or SuperGold card via such a "U" backplane.

I doubt that someone would have gone through all the effort to build such a serious casing and PSU for a simple unexpanded QL.
