Re: Can a QL do donkey Kong sounds?

Can a bbql make these sounds? I understand the donkey Kong arcade machine uses the same chip as the QL to drive the sound, so maybe this is possible? I'm pretty sure it's not possible. This is what I found on a forum about the Donkey Kong arcade machine sound: Kef Schecter Follow video game history...

Re: Most probably the smallest "QL" ever!

The lowest I could find is 87Euro including transport.
I also have to pay 5% import duties, 19% VAT and a flat tax of 20Euro for import papers (I might avoid that if I do the customs declaration myself, but that also means 4 hours lost at customs office), so the total price would be 129Euro :cry:

Re: QL2k speed change

If you want an emulator that runs at QL speed then use Q-Emulator

Re: Most probably the smallest "QL" ever!

Picture of the smallest PC I could find I to make an interpretation of the QL Wafer. I have used it to run QPC2 as is. It comes with Windows 10 Pre-installed and cost £57.00 inc delivery. The thing sticking out of the side is a wireless mouse receiver. image00003.jpg Where did you found it with onl...

Re: QIMSI

I know that one of course (and it has problems). i never had any problems with History 1.27 Instead I asked for a link to PTH which allegedly has built-in commandline history, according to ql_freak. As far as I know PTH never had a built-in commandline history. I think it's some sort of confusion h...

Re: C1 Pascal

I found a patched version of C1 Pascal that works on QLs with more than 1 Mb RAM and Minerva ROM . It works on my QL+SGC card and in QEmulator. The patch was created by Carsten Koch for a german QL group, back in 1989. The C1Pascal v3.02 is a QL-zip file, so no problems with dos headers Later Edit: ...

Re: Fast Plot/Draw toolkit / viepoint manual/ PD3 Manual

I had a quick look in Dilwyn's post here , and it seems to have the proper strings in the binaries. You are right! I missed Dilwyn's post Hi Andrei, I'm not sure if I've found the right file, one of the code files in this seems to have the extension names listed. It has no text file, so I am not su...
