Apple2 Asm: current cursor y pos.?

Hi!  I am working on a WIP text adventure for the C64 and Plus4 and want to port it to the Apple2enh.  The text adventure updates a scoreboard on the top of the screen every time it asks for input.  It is written in cc65 C.  Before it prints the scoreboard, it has to preserve the initial Y pos.  I know I can just use wherey() but want a more efficient method, as I'm also working on and using A2SimpleIO.  I checked through my Apple2 documentation quickly and didn't find it.  Right now, I just need the address of the variable that holds the cursor Y pos but want a full map of the Apple2's mem

Z-Term for Apple II CP/M

Hello all,

 

I am looking for Z-Term, a communication program that supports the Apple II with Softcard CP/M. I have looked in the usual places (Asimov, etc), but could not find any disk images with the program.

 

Any help is appreciated!

 

Thanks,

AppleWin: emulated joystick?

Basically, how do I do it?  I go into the options and the input tab and set joystick #1 to use the keyboard and the arrow keys, and it usually doesn't work.  How do I properly emulate the joystick using the keyboard?  I don't have a real joystick.

Does anyone know the voltages on the capacitors on a super serial card

Hello all,

I picked up a SSC cheap that needs some repair. DIP switches needed to be replaced and missing a cable. I noticed the disc capacitor at C13 was physically damaged and I’d like to replace it. The schematic shows it to be .01uf. Would anyone know what voltage these .01uf capacitors should be rated at?

BASIC usage of Super Serial Card

Hello all,

 I have setup my SSC on an appleII+ (clone), played a bit with terminal login and so on. The physical switches are set to 9600 bps, 8N1. It works well, however I decided to take it a bit further and catch some json coming from the other end of the SCC. I  have troubles integrating the serial data in a BASIC program. Let's assume the following string which is passed over serial:

{"test":"1234,56,78"}

 

and the following BASIC code to read this string over serial on the AppleII side:

 

10 print chr$(4);"IN#2"

15 j$=""

20 GET A$

Apple ProFile 5MB HDD repair

Hi all, 

 

I've recently got an Apple ProFile, 5MB HDD for the Apple ///, // and Lisa. It was not powering on so I repaired it - and as usual made a video! https://youtu.be/Vg4yNmrgVn0

 

Feedback and comments are welcome! I'll return it to someone who has a system capable of testing it soon - I only have an Apple // without the necessary card!

Do keycaps from 605-4115-0 RFI-style keyboard fit cherry MX keys?

Just curious if anyone here with a 605-4115-0 Apple II/II+ keyboard has tried the keycaps with Cherry MX keys. 

 

I know the  keycaps from later keyboards using ALPS keys are a little loose on Cherry MX stems.

 

Thanks,

Capturing Apple 2 composite signals

Hi all,

 

I'd like to complete my OSSC (VGA/Component/RGB capture card with HDMI output) with a composite input which works with Apple 2 machines. I know Apple 2 composite is a bit weird so I was wondering if anybody had any experience with any capture devices. I have a cheapo composite to HDMI which works-ish as in the signal is unstable with the Apple //e.

ReActiveMicro Phasor Sound crashes / freezes

I have an Apple IIe Enhanced, with a ReActiveMicro Universal PSU installed, an 80col/64k ram expansion card, and I am using a floppyEmu on a 5.25" 655-0101-D controller card (slot 7). There is also a SuperSerial Card installed (slot 2) and it works successfully.
