I' am new to the forum and a little bit late - is there one adapter left to buy?
Welcome @Jungsi, the mouse adaptors are amazing. It looks like you were *just* in time. Thanks @talrek your work on these adaptors was very much appreciated.

You can still use the PS/2 version with a USB mouse if you use a USB to PS/2 adapter thingy.

You are all welcome.
I think everyone has been served, so the number was right.

I strongly agree with the Master  8) 8) 8)
It works very well with a USB/PS2 adapter, i bought mine for 1,20 Euros

I wonder what else is in the Bryce back catalogue? I am waiting for his next big announcement, because I really want one of those. ;)

What's about other 8bit platforms with Atari compatible joystick ports?
Maybe there is a "market" for this adapter, too?

Hi !
You are lucky i have one more left but PS/2 version.
No more USB.


If other are interested i can do another batch.
That would be great - I take also a PS/2 Version - a PS/2 - USB adpater is no problem - I have some of them. :-)
Just send me a PN for payment.....

Actually my current projects (other than the CPC Laptop) are for Amiga and Acorn Electron. :)

Mouse adapters for others 8-bits are easy enough to do, especially when they have analogue inputs, but the original C64 mouse is still easily available and the Atari didn't really have any mouse-based software as far as I know.

The Atari8bit already has solutions for Amiga and ST mouses AFAIK. Regarding mouse-based software:...  :P

Would like to test it on my Enterprise, but it seems, that my Joystick port/adapter is broken.

Yes, they seem to have adapted hardware from their "big brothers", the poor CPC didn't have this option. :(

Well the proportional Mouse of the AtariST runs quite well with my CPC - in proportional Mode of course. The G-Paint program which can be used is imho as good as or even better than OCP Art Studio.  :)

Sorry i thought i had one left.... And in fact... Zéro.
i have 5 pcb left, when i have time, i will complète those 5.

talrek

So I completed my last 5 pcbs. i don't intend to do more.
Except if there is a large demand like the first one.


It is only PS/2 versions, but works very well with an usb adapter.


Price is 22 euros without shipping ;-)

Kind of busy at the moment, can't even find time to get my CPC Laptop done. But suggestions are always welcome.

Hopefully the one we discussed in dublin, involving 3rd party radio transmissions and no battery will be a priority, after your laptop. [emoji6]

Well.... i must take time to think about new ideas to submit  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:


By the way , anyone has schematics for a memory extension ? at least 512kb ??? I'd like to make one, i already have two megaflashes, so if anyone has those schematics... thanks to him !


But i'm also worried, because radu didn't receive his mouse adapter. i think it is lost... The tracking says it went outside France...
Well, we are waiting for the end of the week. And i will send him another for free... it is just a shame !!! I don't like romanian post  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:   (i think french post isn't better sometimes....)
European post office are a shame... no Home 2 Home tracking..... only between few european countries...

Buy a X-MEM, that will cost you less that if you make it yourself.  ;D
I can sent it to you in KIT if you want to solder it...
I'm in France, so only french post!  :P

I sent radu a GT65 and it actually arrived faster than I was expecting. But it's now pre-Christmas postal-madness time. I'd give it another week before I'd declare it "officially lost". When did you send it?

Bryce.

TotO

The same for me. I have sent to him some boards and they arrived really fast.
