Re: Q-Liberator 3.46

Hi

I think you miss the point. I agree with the fact that Toolkit 2 is a necessity and should also be loaded all the time.

Re: Q-Liberator 3.46

Hi, I do not need to test for Toolkit 2, as I know what is installed on the machine. Surely, for compatibility, the presence of Toolkit 2 can be ignored. I am not sure that using ENV is a good idea, as many users may not know how to use it. What are the Qliberator environmental variables? How does t...

Re: Q40/Q60

There is a problem with the Q60 VGA video output, which does not give a clear video output in 1024x512 HiColour mode, on a modern LCD monitor This is such a tragedy. At design time, it was simply not foreseeable that flatscreen monitors would no longer have multisync capabilities. I have spent coun...

Re: Q-Liberator 3.46

Hi,

I downloaded: https://dilwyn.qlforum.co.uk/qlib/Qlib346u.img.zip

Looking at the boot file, you need Toolkit 2 installed.

Without Toolkit 2, you will have to respr the code and call it.

Re: X68000 Z

Hi,

The Sharp X68000 looks a nice machine, though they are very scarce and are usually sought after, resulting in a high price tag .

There maybe more Amiga games available than X68000 games, which may make the better machine not popular.

Re: Q40/Q60

Hi, The main reason that I did the Q60, in 2002, which was 22 years ago (where does the time go...), I wanted a 68060 based QL system. So the only way was to make one. It does seem after all this time I still need a 68060 based QL. The Q60 production was so sucessful, withno failures in the hardware...

Re: QDOS on Wii walkthrough

Hi,

I have QPC1 running on Dosbox on an Android tablet, running the Extended Environment in 800x600 resolution.

The onscreen keyboard made the screen smaller, but maybe a Bluetooth keyboard is the answer.

Re: Game Launcher

HI,

Nice games loader.

Have a look at the QL Games Cartridge, there is an on screen menu system that might give ideas.
