Alternative URL to the binary, this one also supports plain HTTP:

I released a binary of my "fork" of the X68000 DaynaPort driver, as version "v1.3-CQ". It has quite a few changes compared to the v1.1 it's based on - most importantly, it works on my X68000 Expert HD now instead of locking up the SCSI bus right after startup. It also supports multipacket mode, and it can query the signal level and the connected SSID.

(This isn't a GitHub endorsement. At least for my changes, no LLM output has been used.)

Want to see a bunch of great games on a $3,000 computer from 1987? Check out every Capcom game on the Sharp X68000!
Does the computer deserve its reputation for arcade perfect ports? Check out the video and tell me what YOU think!

Days, since I had to fix a Dayna SCSI/Link driver for my hardware: 0 🤪 👍
This time it was the X68000 driver, which was entirely broken at least the SASI use case. At least I can't see how it could have ever worked, after studying the API. Unless there are expansions out there that behave very differently using the IOCS API. But anyway, my X68000 Expert HD is now on the internetses and via WiFi, no less! 😄
BTW, is there an X68000 IRC channel? Asking for a friend. 😅

Here is first test of the cheapest X68000 mouse off evilBay. I bought it back in February... 😰 Life got in the way...
Usually I don't care a lot about using original peripherals for vintage computers and this is especially true for mice - optical mice are just way nicer to use. We've come a long way there.
But the X68000 mouse - that doubles as a trackball - is very unique, so I made an exception and bought one. Glad to say it works fine after some cleaning.

Pay no attention to the compiler toolchains appearing on my GitHub. 🤫

#x68000 arrived, and everything works awesome.
Because of it I finally got off my butt to also buy the 90cm deep table I was eyeing, so that a #CRT has actual space on it.Not fully finished yet, but at least I have some space to put some #vintagecomputers on a table.
Will need some shelving as well.

So, I haven’t posted in a while. And I likely still won’t too much. Still working on organizing my collection and working on how to best display everything.
But I just had to share that I just won the auction of one of my #holygrail . A Sharp #x68000 XVI. Fully recapped with new PSU and everything else I’d want with it (except mouse :eyes_tl: ). So extremely excited for it to arrive.

Image: ZUIKI ZUIKI has announced the details of its next double pack of retro titles for the X68000 Z, revealing that it will be reissuing Telenet Japan’s Sol Feace & Valis II together in a single collection later this year. The package is now available to pre-order f…

A little bump to the Neon68K Unpacker (v1.0.1)
- Better documentation.
- Now either build the data to a local folder, or it can directly FTP to the MiSTer.https://github.com/creativenucleus/misterfpga-neon68k-unpacker

Me encanta que ZUIKI saque más miniversiones del ordenador X68000, incluso está planteándose vender fuera de Japón.
Pero su precio está más cerca del X68000 original que accesible en general.

New video! Check out the original X68000 version of Thunder Force II and see how the later Genesis / Mega Drive version stacks up! As usual this is a complete game comparison with commentary.

Yes, I know, I could have 3D printed something, but I really lack the space for a 3D printer, and I have too many tools I barely use anyway. Plus I don't have experience in designing these kind of things - although would be very interested, but not having a printer is kinda demotivating. This was just way faster and simpler - for now.
On a related note and looking sharp - used the white-on-black labels to add some other matching labels here and there.

Still wrapping up some small projects after the holidays. This time, I put the X68000 USB mouse adapter I built previously into a case.
The small plastic box I bought for this is slightly too big, but I padded it with some foam I had at hand. Proper zip-tie engineering results in good enough stress reliefs. Add some white-on-black labels to make it look... SHARP. (Sorry...)
Not too bad for a first try and it still works - the Arduino survived the surgery.
