I just got Duet to work on my Mega STe and TT030. Unfortunately no luck getting the LAN driver to work. Only Midi but I was chuffed to get the 2 Ataris together. Curious, do you have links to downloads for the other drivers you mention like the DriveNet, etc... I want to try them as well. I googled the names you rattled off but nothing pops up. thx
Was it not possible to use a soft tos 1.4 acc to mimic the version needed
I see you have Authur Dent in your calendar. Just to make sure he doesn't become the LATE Dentarthurdent.... it's a kind of threat
This is INSANE!! I was a Mac kid growing up (System 6 through MacOS 9), and I still have a ton of Classic Macs sitting around. I only just got into the Atari ST (bought an 1040STFM last year) but felt a Falcon was waaaay outside of my budget. But if I can effectively turn one of my Macs (pre-PowerPC) into a Falcon, that'll save me a whole bunch of money! Thanks for sharing this info! 😊 EDIT: There is a MacOS X version as well?? (I'm assuming PowerPC-only because that can at least emulator a 68040)
They should have made a functioning keyboard. Idiots.
The THECXSTICK is not available on Amazon. The wireless CX40+ and CX78+ GAMEPAD are available, but don't have Home, Menu, and Select buttons. And the ring buttons are missing on the CX40+. And none of these have analog functions.
When I invented the term *KAOS* in 1986 or 1987 (version 1.2 was the initial one), I had two things in mind. First, it's the two first letters of my name, just swapped (AK-OS becomes KA-OS), and second I am a great fan of the US TV series _Get Smart_ (in German: „Mini-Max”), where KAOS was an evil organisation, comparable to James Bond's _Spectre_ . In fact I am the main author of the OS patches and the auxiliary programs and the shell, I just needed some help for the 68030 adaptation. So Katzschke's contribution was in fact very small. Things changed with MagiC, where the legendary Behne brothers created a great graphics driver, and with MagiCMac, where Thomas Tempelmann (temple man) wrote the Mac OS part and did a great job.
ohhh, hail to the demigod of ATARI ST world... 🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐 Edit: und Danke!
9:11 Funny to see just my name. 🙂
Es freut mich sehr, daß Dir mein Programm gefällt. Leider habe ich selbst keinen Atari mehr. Mein letztes Werk, der Emulator AtariX, läuft auf macOS, aber leider nur in 32 Bit und damit nicht mehr in neueren Betriebssystem-Versionen, wie z.B. 10.12 (Mojave). Er liegt auf gitlab.
This and the Spectrum have poor games selection. This one has a rubbish joystick, the Spectrum has no joystick. Who is in charge in this company? Whoever it is they need a talking to.
I still have my original Maxam on the cartridge. A very ingenious design. But the label wore off years ago and all the bits have escaped.
Another great video! I guess I never subscribed that fast to any channel..!!
Thank you so much! I started out with STik and STing and CAB (and a modem) in the early 90s. I can't believe that is still working! I just ordered the netusbee. Your video will help me a lot!
Great stuff. Is there a way to connect 3 systems together or more? I see you did the in and out between the 2 but if you have 3, how would you or can you cable 3 together? You said you can MIDI up to 16 MidiMaze so curious.
I am guessing the In to the Out you just have to loop the last in the chain to the 1st computer so you have a ring connection?
I am confused, can someone help, what hatari emulator are you using? how do i install it. i found a channel explaining how to install hatari via snapd this is the closest I've got, it loaded some games but had no sound. any help would be very much appreciated. tia
2:50 you say the only way to reset a CPC 464 is to power cycle it at the wall socket, or to yank the power cable out of the back of the machine. What about the power switch on the side of the computer?
I never had a 464 or a 6128 with a built in switch. Did you have a plus model? The might have had one?
I loved this. I won the original Rombo ROM box in an Amstrad Action competition, together with your host of ROMs. I never used MAXAM, but Utopia was very useful and Protext et al saw my CPC serve as a capable word processor through to 1995, when it finally got supplanted by a donated 386 PC, which soon became a 486, a Pentium, a... I still have all those ROMs, though they haven't been used in many a year.
Fantasy, I love hearing these stories. The cpc range are very close to my heart.
RUclips doesn't have enough videos about the CPC, thanks!
glad you liked it
My best friend at school was bought a CPC 464 for Christmas, but have to admit my main memory of his machine was playing Tau Ceti... PS I had ProText (and ProData) on my Atari ST.
As an ex-Spectrum man, I may have to grudingly accept the CPC was a little bit better for a productivity role. This would have been a monster rig. I'll console myself that half your games were just slow versions of mine, however. ;)
Hey, good to see you back! 😀Please, if you don’t mind me asking: what's your opinion on m4 expansion for CPC? To the casual observer like me it looks amazing, but is it really that (or any at all) good? And another, please: do you know can Mega 4 Revision .B board (2 TOS ROMs, Blitter fix) be upgraded to TOS 2.06 without need for Decoder Glue? So glad you are back! BTW, there is a new FreeMiNT img from Dec '24. for you to cover 😉
Does this only work with Mint?
It works with MagiC very good.

Cheaper to buy a decent mac than a used falcon
It was such a wonderful time;with st,e,Falcon!Harlekin 3 was mazing!!!!!
The latest Peter Puntnik HD drivers are even more excellent with VIRTUAL Floppy Drive functionality. Just did a short video demonstrating this functionality ruclips.net/video/_rpcBci4LYM/видео.htmlsi=UnKOxkOxTScY7ttH
Just the guidance I needed. Thanks!
I've been trying to get the Atari ST MiSTer core working, and for the life of me, it is a riddle wrapped up in an enigma!
I would love to buy a mister. Perhaps some day
I did finally get it working! Tried out some fun games on it. Including this new racing game that just released this week called "Faster". Very cool to see new stuff still being made by fans for the hardware.
I echo the sentiment that a video on leveraging the multi disk functionality would be great, and maybe including a rundown of all the Atari 8-bit software (non-game) options that unlocks? I'm expecting the mini for Christmas and one of my goals after updating the firmware and beefing out the games library is to hook up a USB keyboard and start testing the thing's limits as an actual quasi-computer. Would be awesome to see a precedent for that kind of experiment first on RUclips, though.
I like your videos
Everything seems to have loaded fine in mega ste hatari. Nothing happens. Do I need Gemini to run this? Many thanks for your videos!
Good review
Great tutorial sir. I have the OLED Gotek from the same seller Jon (I met him, top bloke) but with the OLED in the drive bracket. Wish I bought this now as it's not easy peering down the right-hand side.
Totally agree. That’s why i opted for this one.
Hi I got lightning usb on my megast , mega ste and tt this usb hardware does support hot swap usb so I can use it, remove it and put one back and its mounted. But on netusb I only got it to work when its connected at boot can you confirm your setup supports hot swap between pc and atari
Can you share the cab setup and cab ovl you use ?
Is there a written version of this tutorial somewhere?
Unfortunately not.
This video is 10 times longer than it should be (and it should be a PDF cheat sheet anyway)
Glad you liked it!
Welcome back! Glad to see you didn't need to get a dremel out.
could you do me a copy of that ST ram disc ? ill pay you , great video lots of info for my st 1040 in a box that got packed away with rest of computers from the 80's thank you
all of the stuff on that drive and more are in the cosec collection on archive.org archive.org/details/Atari_ST_TOSEC_2012_04_23
Is it possible to mount the GOTEK as an external drive through the floppy connector?
there are other kits around that could do that, a quick eBay search shows several. two things to keep in mind 1: some are adaptors only and so you would need a separate got device. 2: they will appear as drive B and not all software runs from the B drive.
More important to note the ST will only boot from drive A, unless you modify several pins on the YM chip and connect a bootselector switch.
Thank you for the responses. It has been some time since I posted my question. My rationale for connecting the Gotek externally is to keep the internal floppy drive and avoid modifications that could introduce stress and damage my computer. To circumvent the issue with the computer not booting from drive B: - I think there is a small auto folder program swapping drive A: and B: - Can TOS be patched to boot from the B: drive? - Can a function, as mentioned above, be implemented in EmuTOS? Since I am not a gamer, booting from A: is not an issue. I have an Atari STE, which I tried to connect Gotek as an external drive. I have the appropriate cable, but it doesn’t work.
A clean solution! Lovely work!
And a classic 9/10 😀
Yikes! Well done! How on earth did you fit those dupont connectors through that gap? I had always assumed it needed a cut-and-resolder job.
A bit of gentle persuasion with a metal spudger. You have to be careful though, old plastic can be brittle.
At about 5 mins in your video you mention ( I think ) about using Hatari to copy the HDD drivers to a floppy (on a PC) via an external FDD. Are external FDD recognised by Hatari and Windows 10? Are there an models of external FDD to buy that you know of that will work with DD floppy disks and Hatari. Sorry if this is a bit of a Noob question, but I'm new to all of this.
To create a floppy that can be read on an st that’s created on a pc, you need a real floppy drive with low level access. So an old floppy disk drive with a ribbon cable connector. The modern usb devices don’t give low level access as they function as block devices like a usb sticks (if that makes sense)
@@commodoreisnottheonlyfruit Thanks, I thought it had to be an internal FDD. I've just purchased Peter's Drivers but I'm having trouble downloading the 15MBAII zip file? Did you encounter any problems? In your video you mention changing the file extension to .img, but I can't download it?
There’s a better solution that’s only came out in the last few weeks, it’s called a GoDrive and means you can keep your floppy drive also
Where can I obtain these? Found nothing for the Atari. Only an Amiga floppy emulator with the same name but this was meant to be fitted on the mainboard and has a display case specially made for the A1200...
when lifting the top off an Atari ST you dont need to bend the case, to get around the floppy drive bezel you tilt it off and on. no bending needed.
If I said bend I misspoke. I ment slide
Great work. Love that top mounted display / encoder box. Also appreciate the "reverse-ability" of the path you went for installing.
Glad you enjoyed it. It was a fun little project.
Glad you enjoyed it. It was a fun little project.
Another great video from you! Great help for me on this. I've seen all your videos. I'm currently running Hatari STE at 4MB. I installed SpeedGDOS per your video and it installed fine however, it takes me to folder that has fonts and SFPD document. Not certain where to go from here to complete this. I would be grateful for any help. I'm very much a novice. Thank you!
you watch this video I replaced speedogdos with nvdi , that might help. Pimp My ST, quality of life improvements, better looks and a CLI. Oh my. ruclips.net/video/-PMGnu_MPJc/видео.html
Is that OLED display the same as the one on the BulkyMIDI-32 device? If so, you might be able to fit that inside the case now that the floppy is gone with some sort of switch?
Interesting idea. But quite a lot of pain. I’d have to solder the midi connections inside the ST. It using the bulky midi pcbs to create an external drive as a hotel B drive might work.
I bought Putnik's driver a long time ago, and I've been using it with the Ultrasatan drive. Don't remember the version, but for sure it could see multiple partitions on a card, and at the same time it allowed choosing which to boot from. The new driver lets you divide a single SD card into multiple virtual devices, to bypass 14 drives (each 512MB max) limitation of TOS. 1.01 does not install icons for hard disks on the desktop so only the C: drive is visible, but you could still install the rest of them from the GEM desktop. Windows used to have a limitation of 1 partition per removable drive, but not TOS.
Great videos ! I’m up and running thanks to you. Then I hit a snag. I loaded Centipede , played the game with no problems. Now I can’t get Hatari to stop loading it. I’ve uninstalled everything, rebooted, and when I load hatari after reinstalling. The game starts playing again. Any thoughts sir? Thanks for all your content!
If you have the floppy mounted and it has an auto folder it will auto boot. Go to the floppy settings and eject the disk. Save the config and reboot. You can access the settings via the F12 key.
