Games / Re: CPC Formula 1 [WIP]

Last post by luckpro - 11:43, 25 April 24

As a feedback, I'd say that it looks like you can't see s**t with the current camera and speed. Maybe the camera could be moved up a little or the speed reduced?

EDIT: I think it's the peculiar format of the video with margins. I suspect the movement would look normal in a normal video.

Like you, several people have told me that there is little ground to be seen. 

I'll try to improve that part. 

The video is recorded using the RVM emulator although the quality is not very good (twitter limits...).

Thank you for feedback.

It may be so that the articles are written using a bit of AI help. Then edited by human hands.
(There are many copyrighting tools: copy.ai etc..) That may be why the copy is somewhat tasteless and missing some information here and there.

It might also explain why some of the details seem off. Although language barriers and possibly a lack of deep technical knowledge could also account for that.

There's also a slight difference in LD A,R/LD A,I behaviour according to @arnoldemu

But SymbOS working 

Thanks, yery good to know!

SymbOS is using LD A,I/LD I,A a lot, so this part seems to be 100% the same for both Z80 versions.

According  to that thread it's a bug on the NMOS version only where the P/V flag gets cleared if an interrupt occurs while processing one of those instructions. I imagine caring about that is such an incredibly niche situation that nothing would be affected unless specifically testing for it.

I will be making a hardware patch in an inelegant version, i.e. shorting D0-7 from high to low. If anyone knows whether the CMOS output can withstand such frequent treatment, please write something.

Technical support - Hardware related / Re: cable DDI-1 for CPC 6128

Last post by Rabs - 06:19, 25 April 24

Isn't the DDI-1 wired to supply 5v on the floppy cable?

Could that damage the CPC?

I read this also somewhere, not sure if it is correct but as I am only using with a CPC 6128, I disconnected the internal 5V supply just in case I initially got the cable upside down. Guess I can reconnect now it is working.
