    ResEdit programming issue

    I’m stumped! The DITL renders the controls but the DLOG does not! I’ve rechecked and rebuilt it twice.

    TI-99/4A

    This is the computer I learned BASIC programming on back in the early 80's. Still have it but haven't turned it on in about five years. Worked the last time it was on. I gave my eldest daughter a lesson in BASIC programming back when she started college using it so she could understand the struggle.

    Compact Mac's feet project

    I've been thinking about making replacement rubber feet for my PowerBook 520c using hand made silicone molds. I had some success creating polyurethane parts for a 116 to 120 film spool adapter for an antique camera. The cheap silicone caulk mixed with corn starch I used to make the mold was...

    MacLO - New 68k game & source

    Source too - that's cool. And it's the MIT license which is even better! I have the source to Flappy Mac. I'll have to check this out too.

    MacLO - New 68k game & source

    I’m interested! Just in the middle of a project right now. I am also getting into 68K game development. Mostly in HyperCard but plan to migrate to C sometime soon.

    Still lurking - just busy with another hobby for now

    Yo. Still here and lurking once in a while. I've been busy rebuilding a Burke & James 4x5 Press film camera. The poor thing was kept in a basement left to rust. Learning quite a lot about painting aluminum - self etching primer is a thing. And how to construct a camera bellows - it's difficult...

    Modern day xTalk (HyperCard)

    I'm interested enough to take a look. I've recently written a quick little game in HyperCard. Could be interesting to try a port.

    Trying to follow https://www.emaculation.com/doku.php/m68k-qemu-on-windows But I'm running into this when the installer starts running... :-( Where did you find initialized disk images? I've been looking but no luck.

    68K programming

    I cut my teeth on C on Unix and DOS back in the day. Ended up working most of my career in the Microsoft stack. I'm used to relying on magazines, books, and manuals when I work in C - back in the dark past before the Interwebs.

    68K programming

    Are there any 68K software developers on here? I’ve recently revisited HyperCard development and I’m looking into getting back into C development. Recently tossed together a game for the Royal Game of Ur in HyperCard. Will share the code with anyone who is interested. Fair warning, it’s a hot...

    What's your restoration 'philosophy'?

    This is pretty close to my philosophy. I’ve considered doing a mod that is somewhat reversible. I have a PowerBook 520c with a BlueSCSI drive. It would be convenient to have a SD extension accessible from the outside but I do not want to mod the case. However, if I can find an extra battery port...

    I see that someone has successfully hosted A/UX in Qemu. I’m interested in trying it out.

    A couple of things you can do. Upgrade the firmware and the OS to the "latest" version. In the newer OS versions you can switch back and forth from Sugar to Gnome. You can install some apps. You need to modify the yum configuration to use the http instead of https mirror. Make sure you...

    TI-99/4A

    I have one. It was my first computer. No extras, just the computer. It belonged to a friend. He was going to toss it because the video failed. He gave it to me instead. Just needed a cable.
