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 ...

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...

Wow! That was super generous of you, Stephen.

As for your description of festival-goers, I was firmly in the middle third.

Ah! That's a strange modus operandi!

Thanks, Dave

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?

Ah well, pity.

I'll look for some 8x10 bitmap fonts.

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.

Other topics that were covered during the day include: EPROM & PIC programmers using printer port. History of CFX, Propeller video & CFX-II leading to MFX. Andy's read-only PROM disk emulator. MTX_Lib and the Code::Blocks GUI for developing Memotech programs in C.[/strike] My implementation...

Those are both your children. How can you pick a favourite ?

Despite the issues you listed, its still looking great, Stephen.
