Been watching the VIC-II #Kawari update vid. Shame it explicitly states the Kawari doesn't work on the 250469 revision C64C, as that's my primary #C64 ðŸ˜
Never mind though, I was planning to shove it in the breadbin I have anyway, which is a 250407. So as soon as the next batch becomes available (and assuming I don't miss it... I'm prone to that sort of thing), I will be grabbing one myself.
For those of you who like these sorts of pics, here is my main #C64C (NTSC) machine's innards.
Oh, tell a lie: the keyboard had a crack in the PCB I had to fix. Main board though has worked flawlessly since day one... and I hope it will continue to do so.
I am thinking of putting one of the modulator replacements I'm building in here though. We shall see.
Btw, that VICII Kawari now has an emulator - a fork of VICE that you can use Kawari specific code on (as well as normal C64 stuff, I guess):
A fork of the VICE emulator with VIC-II Kawari Extensions added - For development purposes - GitHub - randyrossi/vicii-kawari-vice: A fork of the VICE emulator with VIC-II Kawari Extensions added -...
Quick update: I got a build error on that emulator, it might be my config or a missed file perhaps. I'll try and track down the issue later in the week, and if it is a missing file or similar, I'll let Randy Rossi know.
But in the meantime, if you build it and get an issue with 'vte_draw_box_drawing_bitmaps', let me know, so I can confirm it's not a local issue.
