Re: SD card reader for ZX81

Is it Wilf Rigter's hires demo? Wilf's "WRX" hires stores its hires image usually at address $2000 in ram (Wilf made and sold a static 8K ram card for that) .

Re: SPeccy ON the ZeddY

The ZX81 can only run software from 0 to 32768 (RT). So there is no possibility to merge the SD-card and sound part of PSG_E16M32 together with XPACK544. If you have an idea how to solve this, please let me know. The ZX81 can also execute code at addresses 32K to 48K, if a "M1NOT" modification is d...

Re: Dr Beep quiz

You can make an empty screen with just 1 byte: #E9 = JP (HL) You can use the same byte also to shorten a screen. Display a few lines and then end the screen with JP (HL). Does that also mean, that the program is running faster (no more NOPs need to be executed, less time is "wasted" for display)?

Re: SD card reader for ZX81

Hello community, Some time ago I've developed a tiny file system and a SD card adapter for the ZX81. The goal was to avoid a extra processor like ATTINY and only depend on hardware that was already available back in the 80's (apart from the SD card itself). The project comes back to my mind because...

Re: EO and SAVE/LOAD rom patches?

I copied my own rom into EO's rom folder and selected it as usual as the rom to be used by EO (instead of the ZX81x2 rom).
EO then behaves as usual as ZX81, but LOAD "" does not work (nothing happens).

Re: Dr Beep quiz

No, because the program asked me, what my nationality is (I thought, the language used by the program would switch to German ).
So my first answer was wrong at the first program run .... :mrgreen:
