Re: Whither TANSOFT ORICMON?

Dbug, did you scan the manual, and if not do you know/remeber who did it? (Just for credit in my notes). Thanks!

Re: Whither TANSOFT ORICMON?

Sy, do you want to do the honors of uploading the working .TAP file, or should I? Like you, I'd prefer to see Oric.org get updated with the latest information as much as possible, but .. you're the source of this .tap, maybe you should do the upload? :D I'll do it, just time to correct my notes (ma...

Re: Whither TANSOFT ORICMON?

Forget TOSEC broken or undocumented files, sadly we don't know where the files come from and I tend to find it's not a reliable source. Here's the one I made in 2005, 18 years ago :lol: Apparently working, at least it loads on euphoric. oricmon.tap Here are my notes from then: Oricmon from Tansoft (...

Re: Whither ORICMON?

Good thing, problem solved ;)
(well, not for the disk version)

It would be cool if you could leave a message on Oric.org explaning the TAP is ok, so future users (if any :mrgreen: ) won't be worried.

Re: Little Oric tool . explore memory screen ...

Noticed a small "bug" in OricHir: it saves the HIRES screen up to BF40, when it actually ends in BF3F. This could be a detail, but it seems it's producing some mess with tape loading on ROM 1.0. Try the following on ROM 1.0: - load a HIRES screen saved with an end address in BF40 - right a...

Re: Whither ORICMON?

So I did check and Oric.org versions are exactly the same as the ones on my hard drive - well, the file name has been changed but that shouldn't be a problem.

Quite strange, which emulator are you (or were you, in 2018) using?

Re: Whither ORICMON?

Since it seems it's a transfer I made, I'll take a look!
My own TAP of Oric Mon from PSS for Atmos is working, both with Euphoric and Oricutron. Probably something wrong with Oric.org version.

Here's the version I tested

Re: Multi-Key Handling

Hi goyo! For keyboard handling I always use an idea from Dbug, which consists in updating a virtual matrix of 1s and 0s representing the state of each key (pressed or released). This matrix is updated from the interrupt service routine. You can find the code in assembler here http://miniserve.defen...

Re: Novalight - very fast tape loading

Hope I can get back to it soon ;) Any chance for 1.3 in 2023 :) I'm afraid not :D There's a 1.3g that goes a bit faster but I seem to recall it wasn't as "robust" as the 1.2a, I mean it was working fine with some machines but it seemed to have loading errors more often. I also had interna...
