Apple II

I didn't have a working mouse for my //c. That ended earlier this week.

A tweak of an earlier design I used for Atari ST using a WinChipHead (Nanjing Qinheng Microelectronics) CH series microcontroller. The perf board prototype works great and PCB's are on the way. Most any USB HID or wireless HID (with a USB receiver) mouse can act as a //c mouse, or as an input device for a ][ or //e buss mouse card.

If there is any interest let me know. I'm still undecided on how to make this available.

Does anyone know how to access the GSBug and/or ORCA Debugger from within the GS+ emulator. The 'hotkeys' for each of these usually invoke varying windows windows depending on which keys are pressed. The same problem exists for accessing the text mode control panels. It seems the author may not have 'trapped' the keys such that pressing the various 'hotkey' combinations access windows functions instead of IIGS functions.

Any help is appreciated.

I used to have a document, magazine or book (well, I may still ahve it somewhere but I don't remember) back in the day which had info on how to call the Applesoft GR and HGR routines from assembler.  Basically where to JSR to do things and what memory locations and registers to set first.

If anyone has that or can point me to it, it would be great.  I wrote a little Applesoft program that draws a splash screen in low-res for a 32MB ProDOS disk image that I'd like to convert to assembler and make a .SYSTEM file out of.

Hey everyone...

I have been ignoring my II+ for a while (I have two of them), but got one down to fire up and ensure everything was OK. Obviously, since I am posting here, it isn't OK!

I can boot into DOS 3.3 via FloppyEmu or actual disk drive.  No problem.

When I try to boot anything that has graphics in it (let's say, Ultima IV, or ), I get random text on the screen, and the disk drive continues to spin, nothing happens.
