  5. After some wild mathematical hat rendering yesterday, kicked off by @scruss and @paulrickards, I've got John Brooks' ridiculously optimized 10 line Applesoft BASIC program running on the IIe.

    (Time-lapse video; the hat takes about 9 minutes to render on the 1MHz IIe.)

    The listing can be found here: groups.google.com/g/comp.sys.a

  6. @paulrickards @scruss I've seen this on the Apple II as well, ofc, but I can't find the code out there. I wanted to run it on my IIe.

    But I can share a little fun I had with ChatGPT and its attempt to rewrite the thing for Applesoft BASIC. This is after several iterations.

    I think it got tired of all that crap and said, "BORING - I want to code some demos instead!!!" Who knew GPT was a scene fan? lol

  8. @blakespot Here it is in on my Sony PVM from a PAL CDTV. Pretty awesome to see on screen! #CommodoreAmiga #Amiga #CDTV #AmigaCDTV

  9. Upgraded my #Amiga CDTV with 8 megs of RAM using this nifty RAM expansion module that plugs into the otherwise unused diagnostic port. It auto configs so it’s plug and play.

    Not pictured: I had to put some Kapton tape on top of it because it will short out with the metal top lid with the slightest pressure.

  10. Ok, I wrote an #AREXX script that uses a #WiFi232 modem to grab the current time from NTP and sets the #Amiga clock. First time in almost 25 years since I wrote something in AREXX!

  11. Playing around with Graphicraft on the #AmigaCDTV this morning and found this Jack Haeger work on the disk. It even animates the ground with color cycling. #CommodoreAmiga

  12. I think I figured it out! The A590 disk has a "MakeBootDisk” script that converts the install floppy into a boot floppy for a A590 HD under KickStart 1.2. It starts from the floppy disk and uses BindDrivers to load A590HD from the Expansion folder, which I believe is the driver I’ve been looking for. It automatically mounts the CDTV SCSI HD and passes control to it and continues booting from the HD (with JP15 disabled). 👍

  13. Then I used romsplit which saved 11 files from the CDTV extended ROM. None were scsi.device but there is cdtv.device which may be it? I then tried using loadmodule but it says it’s not executable..?

  14. Here’s what I’ve tried so far: Used getscsi to try and save scsi.device from ROM on the CDTV. It says it can’t find scsi.device which is odd because it shows in SysInfo..?

  15. Question for #CommodoreAmiga gurus out there: I’m trying to get A-Max 2.5 working on my #AmigaCDTV but it will only do so with JP15 disabled. This also hides the extended ROM which means the SCSI card doesn’t work (floppy only).

    Is there a way to extract the scsi.device from the extended ROM and use a manual mountlist for KS1.3 to get the SCSI port working again?

    Ps pls boost! ✨

  16. What I really want is to plug a mouse into the existing “remote” port. It’s not a standard Amiga port, and is likely related to the IR remote. But there was a wired mouse for the CDTV (CD1253) but they are super rare. And so far I’ve not found any available docs or projects on how that port works. Does anyone have one of these and can shed some light on it? It might be serial? Can you scope it?

  17. So I built a CDTV mouse adapter based on a DIP socket that goes under the 6500/1 IR controller. So now I can plug in a standard DB9 Amiga mouse!
