Re: Function 2̶0̶2̶1̶ 1991 Hű... Mit is írhatok...
Egyrészt: végre egy offline parti! Másrészt: végre egy Wild, ami nem csak az én gépemen fut! Harmadrészt: köszönet a partiért, a lehetőségért, hogy bemutassuk, meg a közönségnek is óriási köszönet a szavazatokért!
Az SD2IEC-es téma szerintem majd megér egy új thread-et, így most erről sokat nem írnék. Annyit viszont igen, hogy innen is köszönöm Charlie-nak (az egyik parti-szervezőnek) a produkció után a magyarázatot a közönség felé, mert anélkül kevésbé lett volna tiszta, hogy mi is volt látható. Illetve köszönet Larry-nek, mert nem csak az animációt konvertálta, hanem a sok nyűglődésemet "meghallgatta" az SD2IEC fw faragása közben, és rengeteget tesztelte a félkész dolgokat. Illetve ezt a tesztelést Siz is csinálja, ő egy másik nagyon fontos módon is tesztel: használja a szokásos módon a módosított eszközt, és keresi az esetleges anomáliákat.
@Mad: I hope to have a release of the fw soon, with full documentation and sample codes.
(no topic) Wow... What could I write...
For the first: an off-line Party, at last! For the second: a Wild, that runs not only on my machine, at last! For the third: thanks for the Party, for the opportunity to present it and gigantic thanks for the audience for their votes!
The topic of SD2IEC will be worthy of a new thread, therefore I won't write about that much. However, I send my thank you to Charlie (one of the organizers) for the explanation to the audience after showing the product, because it would have been less clear without that what was shown. Also thanks to Larry not only for converting the animation, but for lending an ear to my fussing about while I was kneading the SD2IEC firmware and endlessly testing the work in progress versions. This testing is also done by Siz, who does it in another very important way: uses the modified device in every day's operations, looking for possible anomalies.
@Mad: I hope to have a release of the fw soon, with full documentation and sample codes.
Re: Function 2̶0̶2̶1̶ 1991 Wow this is crazy.. Would also be something for the C64 community, these guys are desperate exactly the same like the (at least) one plus4 guy that is/was desperate big time about the sd2iec in the past.. On plus/4 there is your (@siz) IoLib which already does a good job, btw, the c64 scene is a bit more desperate judging from threads around the internet about that topic.. But nice move of @BSZ, awesome to hear about that. Seems to be something like a final fix for a much bigger problem in the 8-bit scene. (Funny thing will be demos reaching in from Resource and the others running equally on the sd2iec, maybe that was the purpose for that one.. Big ups for that one!)
ps: I also like the IoLib.. It was already a big help.. Just saying..
Re: Function 2̶0̶2̶1̶ 1991 I've been beta-testing the firmware for BSz and he told me that the main purpose of this development is to have SD2IEC support in Bitfire. But being BSz he never chooses the easy way. So you can expect all future bitfire based products to have native 1541/1551/SD2IEC support.
Re: Function 2̶0̶2̶1̶ 1991 Ati: yes, a short but coloured and pretty nice C64 PETSCII movie with music, but being into the Wild /ANimation compo it probably uses a non standard hardware again. You can watch it right after the Plus/4 animation on Twitch, follow the link we posted in the news.
The "MB Coming in 2022" ending? I've completely missed it, nice catch!
Function 2̶0̶2̶1̶ 1991 Plus/4 footprints sighted at Function 2021 party, with the codey-namic duo Larry and BSZ surprising the audience once more, with BA - The Stream, a looong PETSCII movie conversion of the famous "Bad Apple!!" animation, a techdemo of a new SD2IEC firmware that allows uploading custom code to the drive. They've been ranked 2nd in the Wild /Animation compo, congrats! Expect a video about it soon, meanwhile you can watch the live compo stream on Twitch here.
But nooow...people please stand up: Ivan Sarosacz aka Jeva/MB entered the Oldschool graphics compo reaching the 6th place. Yes, it's a Muffbusters comeback, one of the greatest Plus/4 groups of all time, after 30 (t-h-i-r-t-y!) years since the last release! ❤
