Re: Atari TT: Optimal OSSC settings.

First make sure that your Medusa has the latest firmware. For me it works flawlessly with my TT.

EDIT: Wait, what ECL2VGA? Why would you use ECL2VGA *and* Medusa?

Re: 68060 sources

In that case you're much smarter and more patient than I am. :-)

Re: 68060 sources

Ok, so someone redid Quake for integer-only math. I emphasise the word redid, because the original source code base is 100% hardware FPU code, both x86 and m68k. So that's one. Who's going to redo all the others? It's worth mentioning that Quake had one huge advantage in this: every asm function (fu...

Re: 68060 sources

That's a very narrow point of view. E.g. Quake would be impossible to do without FPU, same for many other games/demos. For normal applications one can always use 68000 versions. Creating a triple set of binaries (000/020+/ColdFire) is common practice at least in Atari world.

Re: Vortex AT-Once PC AT Emulator and STE Booster board

I can't advise you in this specific case but my educated guess would be that it wont work: a couple of years ago I tried ATonce 386SX Mega STE + MonSTer, which offers Dual IDE, ALT RAM and Flash TOS and it didn't work (it also sits on the CPU).

Re: OPLxLPT adapter for ST/TT/F030

Thanks! Indeed, a cart version would be best then. Another cool possibility (but I guess outside of the scope of your interest but still uber-cool from Atari perspective) would be to connect MT-32 Pi and whatever-OPL together -- the Pi would serve as sort of manager for both (I presume there isn't m...

Re: OPLxLPT adapter for ST/TT/F030

Impressive indeed. When you mention a toll, how much CPU time are are talking about? I'd like to eventually use it in ScummVM so the bigger the gap between OPL software emulation, the better. Btw is there any performance difference between the aforementioned OPL2LPT/OPL3LPT, OPL3 Express via USB and...

Re: Falcon030 Worked - Today No Video - How to Troubleshoot?

Glad to hear that you have sorted it out. mfro is correct, there's the shortcut available, too. As for the C: vs. A: issue, you can't really avoid booting from A: in any way. If there's an executable boot sector on A:, it will be booted no matter what. Oh and I would advise to stay away from the Fac...

Dude I literally posted it two posts earlier. :)
