Thanks to @MiguelSky and @robcfg there is now the first Spanish Version of FutureOS. For the CPC6128 and for the 6128 Plus.

Hope some of you enjoy it.  :) :) :)

EDIT: If you find some 'cosmetic' problem or whatever please let me know.  :)

EDIT2: Please download the final Spanish version now from the futureos.de homepage. It got two smaller cosmetic changes, but nothing in the code. If you have any comments please let me know.  :)

Thank you for your kind words.  :)  I leave the poll some more day open, then I will have time to make the Cartridge(s). Meanwhile I finished the 6128 Plus version in French.  :) :) :)  Download like usually. Haven't testet it yet (getting late), but will catch up with that tomorrow.  :)

I always liked that the CPC firmware is bug free. Also CP/M is pretty bug free. Comparing a CPC to a Windows system is quite a lot of fun for us.  ;D  Now of course the CPC has some more OS...
Recently I started to search for bugs in FutureOS and kill them if found. Of course it's already way more stable than some other 3rd party OS for the CPC. But this does not mean that there wouldn't be work left.


Now if you have found a bug, then please report / PM and I can care about it.  :)

Hi! I'm working at my ROManager 2.07 for all Flash and S-RAM cards. I couldn't finish up testing in my few days or years leave, but it's nearly done.


Is there somebody willing to help testing with the SF2 (under FutureOS). It will only cost you 2 minutes.

New games need new Cartridges. ACID and 100 nF Capacitor are soldered in, EPROMs will be added previously to sending them out to people who want them. But not so soon ;-)

Extremely cool, but I would have socketed the ACIDs too.

Thought about that too, but the ACIDs do not fit into the regular Cart shells when equipped with a socket. Same for EPROMs sadly. However, as long as all testing and debugging will be performed thoroughly it should be ok.  :)

No so good, Park / Unpark seem to work OK (Never use this myself so OK is as far as I can suggest)


Erase also works fine


Programming however displays a message to set the swithc to wrote an back after the beep, then the border goes red butnothing is written, and no beep.


:(

Hi @CraigsBar : Thanks a lot for checking. I guess I found the problem. Can you please try to load and install an ROM file again (on SF2)?  :)

Yep all seems to be working now. I flashed the Protext Suite with no issues into vacant slots on the Symbiface :)

Awesome Craig!!! You're the best!!! Would give you 100 Like if I could!!! :)


I recently found some special ROMs, which I want to support too. I will add that too and then we can even look at a ROM disc for CP/M Plus.  :)

Hi there!

Guess due to my holiday and lack of internet at home I forgot to tell you that you now can use the Plus version of FutureOS as Cartridge.
(see FutureOS - The revolutionary UltraOS for the CPC6128 and CPCPlus)

You can use the regular icon set or the MacDeath edition.

Languages are: German, English, French and Spanish! Big thanks to the Spanish CPC guys making the translation!!!  :) :) :)

Currently working on a bunch of updates for FutureOS. Today I added support for TotOs MultiPlay card. It has two joysticks (or maybe four!). The update will be out in some weeks. What do you have to do? Nothing, everything is like always, but in addition you can use the new input devices.  :) :) :)

During the last weeks I added few smaller updates to FutureOS. Now I would need somebody to test the new system on a new CPC. If you have plenty of time for doing that then please get in contact with me.[nb]Emulator testing is not needed, because they behave different anyway.[/nb]
