Re: Clone SNES joypad compatibility

We seem to have better luck with the NA style (purple button) clone pads with the Uzebox. Maybe these will work?

They only have 41 in stock as of today so they'll be sold out soon too, but will they restock?

Re: Clone SNES joypad compatibility

Today was the first day that I noticed the final 5 Uzebox compat Aliexpress SNES controllers have sold out: https://vi.aliexpress.com/item/32819725298.html Its worth us rechecking that seller in a few weeks to see if they have got more stock, otherwise I'll have to remove it from the Omega BOM. Did ...

Re: Uzebox 3D printed enclosure!

The Atari Age forum member who is currently building both a regular Uzebox and an Omega sent me a pic of his case today and I had to tell him that I could tell he had printed the old case because of the gap in the cover for the logo, which is filled in on the new case. I told him its not his fault a...

I ran: $ python m74_4bpp_tilegen.py tileset.png tileset.c Using the attached png file ( tileset.png ) and this is what it output: /* 4bpp tile / spriteset data (2 tiles of 32 bytes each) */ const unsigned char imgdata[] __attri...

Re: Uzebox Ω - easier to build, SCART friendly Uzebox

I'm not sure whats happened to Thorsten. I've sent him several emails over the last couple of weeks but I've not heard anything back in two weeks from him now so I hope he's OK?

Re: M74 questions

Thanks Jubatian no need for host C compiler and being able to run compiled binaries, easier to put together a Python script than something in C/C++ working with .png images), however the Uzebox repository doesn't have Python in it.

Re: Uzebox 3D printed enclosure!

I printed Uzebox_cover_75micron_tolerance.3mf today and again its too narrow for the logo to fit. It will be next week now before I get to test Uzebox_cover_100micron_tolerance.3mf

What did you say is the tolerance of the cover thats in the repo, 150 micron?
