Based in Germany I've basically been an Atari 8-bit guy since 1985, but I've come to collect a whole bunch of other retro machines as well.

Now it's my IIgs that acts up, or rather won't act at all. Here's what it does (not):

Announcing 8bit-Unity: Cross-platform SDK for 8bit games

Hey guyz,

Last month I released [url=http://8bit-slicks.com]8bit-Slicks[/url] for the C64, Atari XL and Apple//e. It is the first [b]cross-platform online game[/b] for 8bit era computers.

While developping the game, I organized my project into a "game" part, and a "SDK" part, for future re-use. It then occured to me that other people would benefit from this base for development of cross-platform 8bit games.

Horizontal bars on the Apple II+ screen

I have a problem with the Apple II+ motherboard(RFI) which I restored and had been working well without problems so far. The problem occurred yesterday.

The symptom was that the HGR mode became unstable and the screen was slightly flickering. I summarize the symptoms after restart. With reference to previous posts

, I inspected the IC pins and replaced , but it is not improved. I can not identify the problem IC. Character ROM may be suspicious, but this can not be inspected because it does not have.

Apple II power supply SN 8603, broken power switch

I just acquired an original Apple II power supply A2M001, nice low serial 8603.  It is great all-original condition and still works, except that the original mechanical power switch is stuck.  Of course I would like to replace the power switch so it works.  The question is, what would you do to fix it?

First, the two aluminum rivets that secure the PS enclosure were already removed by the previous owner.  I determined that this was done to hard-wire the switch to be "always on".  So nothing is lost by opening this supply, since the original rivets were already removed anyways.
