I've just updated my modified version of Bastian Schick's and friends BJL uploader program, called lo_inp, which supports Windows NT/2000/XP. Support for Linux has been (re)-added (by special request from SebRmv , and minor tweaks have been made.

 

Enjoy, and please give feedback !

Updated software -> updated bug report

Well, it's better that it was.

But there are still weird things on the converted picture : yellowed areas (look around the eye of the left-side parrot, for example), and a visible "separation line" on the background.

and a new binary distrib also

Thanks Seb

Sorry SebRmv, here's a bug report

 

There seems to be a problem with the dithering algorithm.

Here's the original picture :

 

Here's the result of tga2cry with options -binary -dither -f cry :

 

And here's the result of converter with options -cry --binary --no-clut --16-bits --normal --both :

Are you accessing the site by typing http://jagware.org/ by any chance ? If so, use http://www.jagware.org/ instead (note the www part) -- it's a known issue.

C'est rien, c'est Tempi qui fait son malin en ce moment

 

On the subject of 68k optimization tricks, I found this article a pretty cool list of specific techniques:

Oldie but goodie and still relevant, thanks Tursi !

Merci

Merci à tous

 

25, c'est justement la dernière année ou on a le droit aux reducs

Hélas

what is the php script in question?

For SCPCD, it was phpBB ; for Orion_, it was DotClear.

Here's the video (I only kept the part relating to the JagCF) :

Orion AND SCPCD ? Strange coincidence

It did not happen at the same time (several months apart),

it was apparently not the same person, and in both cases they just used a security flaw in a widespread PHP script. So it's probably just a coincidence (someone targeting random vulnerable sites).

the link of the video does not work anymore

 

is it still available anywhere?

I believe it's no longer available online, as both Orion_'s and SCPCD's sites have been hacked and the data has been erased

I'll try to reupload it tomorrow.

Sounds great

 

Is it a one day event ?

N'anniv Azrael

on the other hand Hubs/switches & TP cable are almost a standard today and cabling are most probably already done in a house..

Yep... but I was thinking about improvised multiplayer tournaments at conventions

 

perhapps some day an online gaming would open new doors for jag fans.. (that cant go to rgc/jagfiest for a quick game with a friend...could easily game online with them...)

It will still be possible, and with the computer handling the Internet access part, JagCF games won't have to worry about things like proxies and firewalls

 

 

Anyway nice to see progress! =) (though i didnt understand that Spy thing... (is it for eavesdropping on communication? isnt that just a debugtool? or is it actually usable for something usable?)

It's just a debug tool we'll use when writing the network code

With an ethernet interface, all that would've been required is a wireless gaming adapter.

We did not choose Ethernet because we wanted to keep the network feature simple and easy to develop for. The advantages are that almost everything is handled in hardware (the software "stack" is very small), and the connections are made using inexpensive and easy to find audio cables (no hubs/switches are needed).

 

There is a company making a wireless USB connection, that may work..

The port on the JagCF is a "USB device", not a "USB host", so it won't work, sorry.

If I wrote a telnet application, for example, would this work on the internet?

 

This could be a nice feature.

Not directly, as the network will not be based on Ethernet and TCP/IP.

But it could be implemented by connecting the JagCF (through USB) to a computer with an Internet connection, and running a "gateway" program on the computer.

Same thing

 

De la part de SCPCD et moi

Hi swapd0!

Here are the latest Catnip news.

 

First, we've decided to integrate the USB updating and high-speed serial communication directly into the JagCF. This will be easier and cheaper for the users (and it simplifies a few things for us too ).

My work is currently focused on this, so as to be able to release the JagCF (hopefully) soon.

 

For the BJL uploading feature, we have not decided what to do yet (there's no point of including it in the JagCF, since a custom protocol will be much faster and more reliable). One option I'm considering is releasing the PCB and schematics for free.

 

Regarding the Mac compatibility :

I did a test port of the software to MacOS X some time ago, and it seemed to work fine.

However I don't own a Mac (someone kindly lent me a iBook for the test), and I know next to nothing about Mac development, so I would need a volunteer to maintain the port and produce the binaries.

maybe but it's french I rather have a good english version....

If you ask SebRmv nicely, I think he'll explain all of this to you in English

Hi,

 

How active is this topic, I would love to see a cross gcc to compile for the jag...

 

TXG/MNX

 

Is this not what you're looking for ? :

I use a cross gcc (old version 3.3.6) to compile 68k code and I interface this with assembly code that I assemble with MadMAC

Then I link all together with ALN

 

Please check this:

and the tools/libs/sources there:

Or do you have something different in mind ?

I've noticed that every time my computer's IP address changes, I have to log in again with my username and password. On other Invision-based forums (such as AtariAge), I don't have to do this (as long as I don't delete the forum cookies, of course).

 

Is it a deliberate choice ? Can this be changed ?

Very cool !

I've always wanted to try homebrews on Virtual Jaguar.

Thanks Orion_
