Re: Pico based serial/USB keyboard membrane emulator.

I like it. Congrats for successful development

For what the serial port?
Would not save resources (in this case) to use the Arduino Nano? for power and signal level compatibility.

Re: BatmanQL - Joan Gayon (2025)

Congrats!
That game deserves it!

I wonder if Microhobby will also introduce a course of SuperBasic for QL, or the compilers.
Tomorrow I will order my hardcopy of the Microhobby! :)

Re: Quill from Gilsoft


I found my copy of QuillA06 tucked away on a flp image today. Is it OK to post on the forum, or is there still a copyright issue with Quill (adventure writer)?


Nice!!!
Do you have the changelog?

I remember someone told me the changes between versions, could be great to summon all what everyone ...

Re: QL freezing after an hour

Congrats! :)

edit: based on what you are telling, it sounds a lot about bad sitting ICs on the sockets.
Whatever, congrats!!! :)

Re: Quill from Gilsoft

It seems that another Spanish user has fixed a bug in the last version (and suspect hereby present in the previous too).
Alvaro A. has the details.

Re: Sinclair ql black screen

Hi,
In case you want to discard that IC21 is OK or fails,
You could use the same IC from an Amiga 500.

The A500 has two 74LS245: U40 & U41.

Still I hesitate if that is the wrong IC. But if you have those socked & yours from QL has NOT ANY short among their pins, it would be fast to check.

Re: Sinclair ql black screen

Hi :)

Now some time to write.
Here you have your Iss5 schema attached.

Now I will tell you what I think, and if it makes sense for you, let's proceed.

The QL in the manage of the diferent modules uses to couple of buses. The CPU use its ADDR/DATA bus, and the RAM memory together with ULA ZX8302 ...
