Re: Football Manager
The Memotech 14L4 PAA devices were limited to 4 terms per pin. So the 512K SDX only made the ram available to CPM. MFX on the other hand uses a much newer 22V10 and that allows 8 to 16 terms depending on the pin. so the full 512k is available in Basic as well as CPM. What I was actually (mis)rememb...

Re: Football Manager
I guess that the MFX could read each file into a high memory page as it has memory to spare. I wonder if the code could then trace through the first loader program looking for access to the tape hardware or ROM routine and then redirecting that to a routine to copy the data from the correct memory ...

Re: Football Manager
Interesting point on the memory limitations, but surely with the MFX and CFXII the machine has been expanded to 64k (unless asci cheaped out on tricking out those beauties :lol: ). So, I'm assuming it's because the game loads into the contiguous 32k starting at 8000h and basic/SDX disk routines shri...

Re: Only a week until the Retro-Comptuer Festival. Eek!
Wow! That was super generous of you, Stephen.
As for your description of festival-goers, I was firmly in the middle third.

Any reason that PMs just sit in the Outbox indefinitely?
As the subject says, I had a PM that was addressed to two users which just sat there for a day. So I deleted it and sent it separately to the two users... still no dice.
Moderators, Claus: any idea what is happening?

Re: Memofest 2023, Where and When?
Ah well, pity.
I'll look for some 8x10 bitmap fonts.

Re: Memofest 2023, Where and When?
Thanks Dave, I'd seen your PAL reader project before but missed the other projects.
It's a strange little expansion port, TBH, lower power draw only and it's inside the machine - which you have noted from selling various iterations of the CFX, a lot of folks have reservations on opening the case.
