Re: Warning by viznut/pwp
When the VIC accesses unconnected space on the VIC-20 and instead takes its pattern data from the instruction and data stream of the CPU, this is another mechanism at work. There are no known cases this would corrupt the internal RAM, and also the schematics of both mainboard revisions don't indica...

Re: Warning by viznut/pwp
Very nice little demo and great to see another PWP prod! :) The checkerboard/whatever zoomer in the background was done with VIC accessing unconnected space. :P There was some debate on the consistency of that technique years back (even from Viznut himself) across board revisions, right? Did those i...

I'm not really sure how you came up with those numbers, but... Sorry, I should've elaborated. I didn't know if you were updating color or screen or... so I just did 3*512 for writing zp/stack, 4*(968-512) for non stack/screen, and I guess the rest is obvious. Just disregard that nonsense though. :)...

Sorry for forcing you to explain all that. I probably should've just gone back and read/re-read the past parts. :P Are you using the column expansion to reveal new characters as a method to get unique colors below red A,B,C without touching their color memory? Must be more to it than that though if ...

does the Pi have the required timing accuracy to do such a thing? I thought the commodore disk drive timing was super picky, that and the Pi runs linux right? Yeah, it may be possible, but it would not be straightforward. As you said, the timing is very picky for perfect emulation. You don't have t...

If you still haven't found it (I noticed the DL link is still down), I stumbled across it looking through an old drive. I hope the link gets fixed soon, but in the mean time I uploaded it here

The Final Expansion contains an SD2IEC device (functionally equivalent to the uIEC), a 512K memory expansion, and flash memory that can be used for cartridges/JiffyDOS functionality. So if you get a FE3, you do not need a uIEC. Please note that a cartridge-based solution is not the most ideal, thoug...
