Looking through the documentation again, the later audio driver (ACIA firmware) that was recommended as part of the last SDK release supports 128 tone banks, and 48 note polyphony. XG level 1 fits within the capabilities of the libraries provided by SEGA. Not sure what the WindowsCE SDK provided …

As someone who has touched the hardware and both the official and homebrew SDKs, I can offer some tidbits here. Mind you this is largely from memory and I've not touched DCDev in close to 20 years at this point. ACIA does not have any access to the SCIF (serial port). The SCIF is an in-chip …

That's not how USB works. USB A ports can't just talk to other USB A ports. What you want is a USB On-The-Go port which can flip flop between host and guest roles. Typically those are USB-C, or micro-AB or mini-AB plugs found on SBCs and things like an Pi Pico etc. If you are running linux on your " …

File locking isn't really a thing I think EtherDFS was designed for, it was designed to be a very small network file sharing solution with minimal safeguards. If I can suggest another direction you might want to look, PC-NFS (it's another very small file sharing solution, and can be hosted from a …

Well, so far the CoVox simulation is great! :D eeguru's been tied up with his job and not been able to dedicate the time he wanted to towards getting the other modes going fully. Technically its not emulation, but simulation since its all done in hardware. The idea is to drop it in, configure it up …

And I'm just smiling over here with my Bitchin' Fast! Audio card...

What was the public facing IP of that Win9x machine again?... I have some toys from back in the day... just ignore it when your machine starts acting weird. 😁

With the board removed, use a meter to probe the pins. You will find at least one pin connected to ground, one to a +5V rail. The remaining pins you have to guess at. Try each possible combo until your mouse works. It shouldn't hurt anything if you get the data and clock lines wrong. You'll likely …

The latest revision of the case on thingiverse has a cutout around the USB port which should accommodate most cables. I additionally switched to a clip + screws & nuts design so the clips never have high levels of stress on them during assembly. The CVX4 case could probably use a tiny bit more …

Hey folks, sorry for chipping in so late to the game. The dual OPL2 support I added to Adlib Tracker II is a dirty hack (and very incomplete). It abuses the fact that most of the registers between OPL3 and OPL2 are the same. The registers that are different aren't handled specially by anything I did …
