Re: Help with Identification?
would make sense to some degree, but certainly tallys with my machine serial etc and black base M6008318, early machine for developers.
Mine has a story behind it. It was the in office Dev machine used by Bubble Bus software in the 80s to develop and cross compile their titles for Spectrum ...

Re: Help with Identification?
I believe that the signatures are on all machines from the first batch created. They are possibly a batch number marking as they appear the same on all early Einstein's.

Re: How to get HDMI with sound output on an EINSTEIN TC-01 and replace your VRAM
Oh, that is brilliant.
Amazing fusion of modern and retro hardware, working in harmony!
Shame I don't have real hardware anymore, coz that would be on my list!

Re: Compiling Xtal Basic
Yes, from what I recall is was only mame/mess that did not write to the drive. I am sure there was another emulator I used years ago that wrote back to disk without issue, but I can't remember which. I will have a look at my emulators and see which ones I still have that might do it.

Re: Welcome!
Welcome. It's a bit quiet around here of late - mostly due to Mike being "on t'road" as it were. Good to have you on board.
Yep, still on the road, but still doing stuff when i can ... more msx to Einstein conversions are happening. The last 3 being football manager, elevator action and ...

Re: Compiling Xtal Basic
The reason is that mame does not support Einstein disk write operations. Or, that is what the old excuse used to be. I haven't updated my mame for a while, but suspect it's stills the same issue.

Re: MAME Einstein emulation issues
The following titles all seem to work very well in the Einstein TC-01 emulation but do not work in the Einstein 256 emulation - I own both of these original machines and I or others I am in contact with have tested these games on an original 256 machine and they work, so the fault is with the ...

Having spoken to a member of the M.A.M.E. team about the support for the Einstein Emulation in M.A.M.E. I was very pleased to find out that the person I contacted was in fact the one that worked on the Einstein 256 emulation (along with many other systems) after discussing various issues with him ...
