Re: SuperCPU128DX MiSTer

Would it be possible, if re-writing huge bits of the C128, to include a mode that would display 80 columns on a standard 1084s crt? I always thought it was a huge shame to be limited to having to have a special monitor for 128 stuff back in the day. I'm sure it's a hardware limitation of the number of lines the crt can display but still...

Bluetooth Atari / C64 Joystick

Any of you done a diy Bluetooth Amiga / Atari or C64 joystick? What did you use?
Er, scratch that. I used an 8bitdo Zero 2, and wired up a broken ArcadeR joystick. One of the best sticks for Commodore / Atari out there in my opinion...

Re: What Do You Think Will Happen Once MiSTer Reaches It's Limits?

It blows my mind that Elevator Action hasn't been done. Was just playing Elevator Action Deluxe on PS3. I still miss the original. Would be such a cool core to have.

Re: Play DivIDE / DVO Files?

Oh erm… this is only possible with the DivIDE hardware device for a real Spectrum. So I suppose the DivIDE would have to be re-created inside the Spectrum core for the FPGA. *forehead smack*

But I dare someone to reverse engineer and implement it into the Speccy core.. and also find a way to attach a real beeper speaker to the MiSTer…

And thank you @bricabrac -owned an N-Go -sold it and the price got me a full Mister system, which I've got in front of me in a nice 3d printed wedge case / keyboard. Don't miss the N-Go at all.

Next Core vs Spectrum Core Question?

Forgive my lack of understanding, but doesn't the Next core make the Spectrum sort of a moot point, as the Next core does everything the Spectrum one does, plus run Next titles? (With the exception of .trd files - which I assume the Next can be made able to do using trdos?)

I have an Ultimate 64 Elite, right beside my MiSTer ( Sorry it's c64 core is simply far superior. :-D ) -and a nice ArcadeR joystick that I like to use fairly exclusively for each. Would a standard db9 kvm type switcher allow me to use one joystick with both physical machines without having to constantly unplug / plug? Such as this: https://www.eba...

Re: ZX Spectrum Next after latest update.

Also, the Do You Love demo crashes for me on this latest core, using the provided vhd for the OS. Rolled back to the older core and boots fine from secondary sd / all works perfectly. :-/

This time printed in navy / gray matte PLA. I made a couple of small mistakes with supports on this one and... Well they were small enough that I don't want to start the entire thing over again. Keyboard is an Akko Horizon TKL.

Re: Recent updates in menu?

They do, but it'd be nice to just see a summary, organized in Mister itself. Having to get up and go to the pc and check everything out.. suboptimal. It'd be nice to browse to a "new" section in say, arcade.. and check out newly updated stuff without finding it by accident.
