FO 09:52 PM EclaireXL Back from holidays

I'm back from my holidays. I didn't find much time to work on this, a few hours here and there. The address decoder/bus master priority logic rework is taking shape and looking much neater - it was long overdue. I estimate about a days s... foft

FO 09:46 PM EclaireXL Feature #58: Maybe consider moving CART selection closer to top in F12 menu ?

Yes I agree this makes sense. I'd like a wider review/redesign on the firmware, there is a lot of scope for improvement. I'd really like it if someone else could pick this up so I could focus on the hardware aspect, any takers? foft

FO 06:59 PM EclaireXL Developer: RE: Which case are you getting?

Yeah those both seem large. This is the one Panos and I bought: https://www.minipc.de/en/catalog/il/1226

FO 09:06 PM EclaireXL Bug #56: Galaxian Cartridge crash

This works on the latest core I'm using (lets call it v15 - address decoder rework!) foft

FO 09:04 PM EclaireXL Address decoding rewrite - tricky, tricky!

So I decided to rewrite the address decoding and priority access to fix the timing issues. Currently the 'address decoder' has a load of random stuff in it. Multiple bus masters come in (6502, dma and antic) and it chooses who has priori... foft
