Re: LOWRES -demo

Very interesting.

I wonder what the Lambda 8300 will do with code like this. The Lambda 8300 does not support pseudo hires or WRX hires, as all video output is handled internally in the ULA, including the charset.

Re: Is serial from the cassette ports possible?

I've never seen this online magazine before. Is there anywhere you can download all the published issues?

Very fascinating game and coding concept.

Re: External board for SPonZY (and other ZX81 ROMs)

That look great. I also designed an internal board to shift between ROMs on the Lambda 8300 (Original ROM, Color ROM and ZX81 compatible ROM). However I have never tested it, as I have more ideas than time to implement them. (I need to get my ZX81 inside Minitel project finished, and I'm also workin...

Re: New Pascalated BASIC Contest

Don't get me wrong. I love the Pascalated Basic, and use it in a modified form on my ZX81. The new version that is compiled is great for Spectrum users I think.

Then they released a new ROM where a lot of routines were moved to other locations and they added support for color if you bought an extra Lambda Colou...

Re: ASM : Lambda speaker.

Hi. As you probably already found out, this URL has the best source for the Lambda 8300. problemkaputt.de/zxdocs.htm#lambda8300 There also exists a Lambda 8300 ROM disassemble scanned book in German. This however I cannot find at the moment. The info about TAP format sounds wrong. The Lambda 8300 fo...
