I'm still not really sure I'm getting any use out of my 128MB card anyway. I don't run arcade cores and certainly not NeoGeo ones because I have original hardware for that. At the time I bought my 128MB card that was the only use for it. I don't know if it still is.

GBA has some titles that use more then 32MB if you have the 128MB addon all though they will use the ddram if you dont so its not actually needed but is recommended i think i will wait to see what happens before rushing out for a new ram board

I would really love. Maybe new jotego's memory driver will help this zx next development.

I dont know if I am going mad, but I could have sworn when I ran the update_all script today, I saw a SpectumNeXt mention in the scrolling update information.

Am I going mad?

I don't think the SRAM / SDRAM issue is resolved though. Not sure it is very usable on Mister yet.

With the 32MB SDRAM + 2MB SRAM module there is no problem with anything.
You mean the 128MB module and SRAM issues ?

The ZX Next core of Mister requires of 2 MB of SRAM to work
The only Dual RAM module for Mister is the 32 MB SDRAM + 2 MB SRAM, sorry.
So, there is not other option for SRAM

Regards

I don't really understand that statement - isn't that 2MB SRAM right there? Or can it not be used because it's also SDRAM?

I mean, this isn't a huge deal for me, I have a Next coming in the next batch but it would have been really nice to be able to crack on with it before then. Something I can't really do yet because there aren't really any good emulation options for M1 Macs right now.

Some news just dropped about an initial port of ZX Spectrum Next.

Can anyone find the readme?

Thank you to everyone involved in bringing the ZX Spectrum Next core to the MiSTer.

Absolutely! Thank you to everyone involved in bringing this to the MiSTer.

It changes nothing for me in terms of hardware I'm still really looking forward to getting my Next from KS2 but it's great to be able to get a head start on that and start playing around in hardware now.
