Well, actually I'm a graphic designer Don't be jealous: also your drawings are OK.
What tools? Do you mean to crimp the QL SER plug? A bit of fantasy and a good screwdriver

Now seriously: QL resolution + more colors = rocking revolution

Tomas, this image is simply spectacular

Maybe your ROM image is corrupt or not a real ROM image? If it is a real ROM image then PEEK_W(a) should give 19195 and PEEK_W(a+2) should be 1. You hit the jackpot Jan! I don't know why, but the problem was indeed the downloaded ROMs. I tried with another TK2 Rom (from QemuLator) and it worked imm...

You might try COPY_H instead of COPY since LBYTES tries to read the file header from the network in order to determine how many bytes it should load. Also, you cannot just CALL a ROM image since it starts with a specific header (which is actually an illegal 68000 instruction). You can try this code...

COPY flp1_tk2rom_bin TO neto_1 Unfortunately this method does not work :-( At "LBYTES neti_1,a" it returns a BAD PARAMETER error. I succeeded to LBYTES some screen dumps from NET1, but it seems impossible to LBYTES TK2 file from floppy. I tried also to transfer Tk2 from Trumpcard using yo...

Here is an improved code by Pjw. It can run on any screen size, and could now be used as a module under Cuedark, one of the "standard" QL screen saver utilities. Larger screens are not for QDOS, of course, so this needs SMSQ/E. Enjoy! 100 REMark ************************************* 110 RE...

Is TSR 1-2450 the only best solution or do you know other similar alternatives?

Pjw, Tomas,
thanks for your benevolent appreciations.
I've already some ideas about Delaunay's 'half circles'
...maybe if I find some time...

I am not sure if the "native TC part" would ignore the missing hardware when you CALL it and initialise TK2 nevertheless. Also the Trump Card does a number of complicated memory-re-mappings during startup. Needs a try. Thank you very much Tobias. I'll make some proofs. And what about tran...
