View Article!ATTENTION! This forum will move in a few days!
We happily announce a cooperation with forum64.de, well-known and probably the most important C64 forum on the internet. MEGA65.net was fun and easy for us to maintain in the first days of the MEGA65,...

Hello all, I have just created this issue on github: https://github.com/MEGA65/mega65-core/issues/93 It is a well-defined exercise in adding the auto-generating documentation for the real-time clock...
View ArticleRE[7]: Why dont you continue to release Bitstreams like promised ?
Bitstreams are updated as free downloads on mega65.org .. however, we need to work on MEGA65 pcb R2 before we publish new bitstreams for NEXYS 4DDR/NEXYS A7.

mega65.org updated - renderings mostly removed. MEGAphone still is A THING :)
View ArticleRE[60]: Does anybody actually want Commodore 65 ? / some destructive ideas
IMHO, the concept of the M65 is spot on. C64 compatibility: It would be stupid to NOT have it. C65 compatibility: Yeah! For all those people who would have bought one, if it ever came to existence....

Unfortunately, LOAD hangs somewhere... and till the end of next week I will have almost no time to work on it.
View ArticleRE[24]: Tell me more about the floppy drive.
It unfortunately will be too hard to make the drive bay interchangeable, while still making it look original. Even just making it changeable will make it MUCH more expensive to produce, because of the...

Getting good quality diskettes is hard, but for some retro guys, is a good option. Late idea, I know: but It would have been nice that this part could be replaced by a generic internal holder for old...

@gardners: reading your statement above about the MEGA65 mode Basic came in mind to use some 'magic-byte', so the computer could automatically go into the mode needed by the program (64/65/mega). The...

Okay, so the C65 is not complete. I understand. I would assume that all of these strange bugs and weird graphics behavior will eventually be ironed out and fixed before the MEGA65 is complete. (So...

Hi, I've set up my Nexys4DDR and have attempted to code some BASIC 10 programs. Whenever I try to do some graphics programming I run into some problems. Namely the LINE statement doesn't work as I...
