Re: Simplest MMC Interface hardware

/me still thinks that having joystick and mouse ports could be awesome, would allow us to make other types of games. I agree, better/"recent" user input devices go a long way in making a platform easier to use for "modern" activities even if its capabilities are limited. Done al...

Re: Multiple IF THEN ELSE on the same line?

IF (S$<>"TWI") THEN ELSE IF(TW=0)THEN PRINT"CROAK":GOTO11407 ELSE PRINT"You don't have any":GOTO10000 Interesting but quite hard to read. :D I guess this is another kind of syntax which is better left to be generated by a preprocessor from a higher level pseudo BASIC l...

Re: Clock Signal — an Oric emulator for macOS and Linux

I also love reading these reflections even if I sometimes do so diagonally. ;) I think your (ThomH) approach is the one I prefer when tackling emulation of old machines. Not only is it more accurate (which I favor) but it also ultimately allows for a mix of software and hardware constructions. With ...

Re: OSDK 1.1 Link65.exe weird syntax error

One thing I can think of, is that for some reason the carriage return on some of the files got modified, like the macros or lib files, and that upsets one of the parsers which ends up generating incorrect code... but since we have people routinely using the OSDK files with linux and windows, I can'...

Re: Oric's 8912 volume scale

Hey Meynaf, funny to see you outside of the EAB. Are you by chance writing an Oric emulator for ECS Amigas? ;) The formula is (V1 + V2 + V3) / Number_Of_Source so here: (1+0+0)/3 = 0.33333V So in fact it's the same, but divided by 3 ? But then, it's like if a single channel can't output more than 0....

Re: OSDK 1.1 Link65.exe weird syntax error

There is no such thing as "accidental submission". A developer that does not systematically diff every single file of the change list, and make sure the commit message matches the content, before pushing the submit button, does not deserve the status of developer :) You really are my code...

Re: OSDK 1.1 Link65.exe weird syntax error

The content of "_final_" does not have to be on SVN, but I found it practical as a way to be 100% transparent and replicable, it's indeed what I zip (after removing the build folders and the content of TMP of course) to make the official releases. [...] If you delete everything inside osd...

Re: OSDK 1.1 Link65.exe weird syntax error

Yeah! Congrats! You finally found it! It was sounding weirder and weirder with each post. I told you about to post your main so I could try to compile it, because it didn't make sense to me. We've been not of much help, but you managed yourself exceptionally :) Well, you have all been helpful, bein...

Re: OSDK 1.1 Link65.exe weird syntax error

Well, it looks like the error is not in my sources at all... Here is my current OSDK_config.bat: @ECHO OFF :: Set the build paremeters SET OSDKADDR=$600 SET OSDKNAME=XS SET OSDKFILE=main And a test main.c I just created: #include "lib.h" void main() { } And here is the result of running OS...

Re: OSDK 1.1 Link65.exe weird syntax error

You could just paste the first part of your main.c file, but I still think this could be due to something that is included. If you could check your #includes for something strange... Only lib.h is included and everything looks perfectly normal. Moreover that program compiled fine last time (ok, tha...

Re: OSDK 1.1 Link65.exe weird syntax error

If you can attach or copy your .c or the generated .s file (main in both cases) we could have a look. Else there is little we can do... One thing that happens to me a lot of times whenever there is a strange error I cannot spot, is a damn #define directive. A slight error defining something which i...

Re: Clock Signal — an Oric emulator for macOS and Linux

Potentially helpful in the interim: what you can write to disk in the emulator is completely disjoint from what it can store from that disk into a disk image. You'll just lose whatever the image isn't expressive enough for in the transcription. So you can load a DSK, write whatever you want, and it...
