Recommended Uzebox board
Good morning/afternoon/evening, is there a board (preferably the gerber files) with most expansion slots? like for the 128k SPI RAM, Uzenet, uzebox mouse/keyboard etc. (preferably without the AD725, can be scart instead) Also is the Atmega1284p supported? Have a great day/night

Re: Uzebox hardware spin-off idea
As i said, if it ran a 6502 VM it could be stuck to 64 KB without bank switching. And about pc games is the thing that you don't get the satisfaction of soldering the hardware together. And yes, it can run doom (15/20ish fps i think)

Uzebox hardware spin-off idea
Hi, since i noticed the flaws of the current design. I thought why shouldn't Uzebox be remastered to work on not a microcontroller, but a SoC. Like the ESP32, it's got half a megabyte of ram and 4-16 mb flash, and wifi/bt capabilities. The ESP32 would have enough horsepower (40-240 mhz) to host a vi...

Re: About game sizes
Alright! I just got an idea of writing some sort of bytecode interpreter, kinda like CHIP-8 for the uzebox. Just as a way to execute larger programs from the sd card. Getting to work ASAP.

Re: About game sizes
We did attempt some designs where the Bootloader could be asked to flash further parts of the game to allow for more than 60K as a multi-part game, however it is not encouraged: there are only about 10000 writes the AVRs internal flash can endure. However in the current Bootloader, the feature exis...

About game sizes
So, i took a few looks on the roms. Their sizes, and the flash memory of the ATMEGA644. And from that i have thought "Does the Flash capacitancy limit the game size?" I'm not sure about that, but if it does. The flash memory will be write locked pretty fast if it gets read written from eve...
