The first thing that popped in my head was..."Boy would it be nice to have a Dungeons of Daggorath part 3, this time on OS-9". Really, the demo looks neat, and I think the Coco is due for another sequel to perhaps the greatest game Tandy ever made for the Coco. :-) >Chris< -*- 89403 19-AUG 00:00 Games & Graphics RE: Allen Huffman's Maze Demo (Re: Msg 89386) From: MIKE_GUZZI To: CPERRAULT (NR) Ah so you liked Dungeons of Daggorath too eh? I wasn't impressed with the sequal "castles of thaggorad" but I would like to see a new DOD game. But my all time favorite that I would love to see on os9 is polaris (missile command) thats always been my game, even bought a trackball for it! It looks like the rz that I have is edition #24, w/CRC A43BF7. Question: > does it look for characters in incoming file names that OS-9 doesn't like > and turn them into something OS-9 does like (e.g. underscore)? I guess I James, I am ALMOST certain that rz (same version and CRC) has done that for me when downloading. Some of those UNIX types love to put hyphens in filenames. It used to drive me (and "tar") nuts when they stashed a couple "illegal" names in the middle of a tar archive too, but "gtar" handles that now. ******************************** A stitch in time -------------------- ------ is worth two in the bush John R.

Did some nice work at the time, but that was in the '60's! I have a helper who does that stuffs for me now, at about the same level of expertise most of the time. Good enough for onzies-tenzies type stuff we need at the station now. I used 4x artwork, positive resist that we sprayed and dried ourselves, and an old DEA spray etcher with ferric chloride. Super precise work at the time, but production lines in taiwan beat it now in 100k piece quotes. I could go on, but this is boring some I expect. Cheers, Gene -*- 89395 18-AUG 22:21 Telecom (6809) RE: Need more speed! (Re: Msg 89075) From: WDTV5 To: MMCCLELLAND The problem is the lack of hardware handshking I expect. First, wire ALL the mpi sockets together at pin 8 to carry the IRQ's thru. Then, it may be that the converted modem pack doesn't have all the signals. They can be juryrigged in if you can get to somebody who has a schematic for the deluxe 232 pack, just dup anything thats not in yours. Minimum connections are to pins 2-3-4-5-6-7-8-20. Check the schematic for names and functions. Cheers, Gene -*- 89399 18-AUG 23:24 Telecom (6809) RE: Need more speed! (Re: Msg 89395) From: CHARLESAM To: WDTV5 (NR) Gene, is wiring pin 8 on all the mpi sockets, a standard hack? I never did this but then I haven't had much telecom problems of late. If this is SOP, then I'll heat up the soldering iron.

Unfortunately, I'm up to my neck with medical bills. I may be able to move up in late 95. We'll see. Until then, I will keep moving with my Coco 3. I read the last issue with envy, believe me. I've had to fight to keep my Delphi access in the budget. I appreciate your concern however and taking the time to point me to these low cost systems.
