    FloppyEmu Dec firmware patches bug? HD20 mode won't be set

    It still freezes if I go back to the boot mode menu. I assume it means I'll have to do the same song and dance with the manual edition of the config file every time I want to switch modes, which makes it a much higher pain than the feature leads you to believe.

    First enemy gets you 200, then 400, then 800 and finally, 1600 if you get the 4th during the same power pill event.

    36,910 in Mac•Man Stringing the baddies is key. I almost did 10k on the first level alone one time, and it wasn't this high score attempt either!

    Unfortunately, the project uses a Pi Zero (doesn't need to be a W, or a 2). I think you can sub it for a pi3a, which has slowly become available at the end of 2022, especially in Europe. Use https://rpilocator.com/ to attempt to source one. To make the RGBTOHDMI more useful, I also got a cheap...

    You can always try cmd-shift-option-3 to get a MacPaint screenshot on your booting drive, but I'm using a far more involved solution and just press a button on my RGBTOHDMI and create a new .png on its uSD card.

    FloppyEmu Dec firmware patches bug? HD20 mode won't be set

    I was able to go forward one step by checking out the emumode.txt file present. You can manually change its content from 0 (3.5 mac disk mode) to 1 (HD20 mode) using a modern computer. Once put back in the floppyEMU, it was strangely still in 3.5 disk mode, but I was able to go to the mode...

    It's a game that needs the Sound Driver and will likely crash when it can't access it. You really need to go old here. Emulation will make this painless in mini-vMac

    Just go the emulator route then, I recommend System 4.2, or 6.0.3 and maybe 6.0.8.

    What mac did you try for that one? Plays well on a Plus and iirc, on a SE.

    FloppyEmu Dec firmware patches bug? HD20 mode won't be set

    Has anyone been able to go to HD20 mode on their floppyemu since the December firmware patches? Whenever I attempt to switch out 3.5 disk emulation mode to HD20, I get a freeze of my floppyemu in the submenu where the switch is performed.

    It's been a long, long, long game hobby of mine to be able to program a new 68k, black and white game that runs smooth on real hardware. I know that C is my only reasonable modern chance to get there, with some dips into assembly inline blocks for some memory block movement that has to occur for...

    Drawing for a drawing (1BitFeverDreams youtube channel)

    After a too long hiatus due to work, I started working on winner #2 (Alberto Martinez) in a sudden live stream. You can go ahead and skip to 10:35 because I was stuck using System 7 and had to install the Mac-a-Mug fonts for a while on my real Mac Plus (as usual, video feed is live from real...

    Mine is 47 in an emulator, I think higher on my save on my floppyemu and/or physical disk. But it's a chore retraining the ol' nervous system for sure.

    Uninvited is a pretty good escape 'room' game imo.
