I have the VB Flash that allows you to load one game on at a time.

 

AAMOI www.vintex64.com will soon be selling my Virtual Boy FlashBoy+ cart.

The current version (that AA sells) looks like the PCB below and uses the DIP settings (below)

Is there some difference between the old VecVoice and the backwards compatibility here?

 

No

 

The original VecVoice used the GI SPO256. The SpeakJet (in the AtariVox) has the same allophone set (and a few extras), so the microcontroller (in the AtariVox+) uses a lookup table to selects them in real time (during the serial data stream).

There's other carts available and solutions to play MAME games on the console.

[Flow control in Stella?]

Or is that an implementation detail of the hardware that I shouldn't even care about in Stella??

 

Correct

 

If you flash the interface with CTS not inverted, it will not work in Phrasalator (with hardware flow enable). I used this as a 'normal serial' test.

[Flow control in Stella?]

Check if the USB interface has the attached settings.

 

You'll need this utility - https://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Utilities/FT_Prog_v3.8.128.448 Installer.exe

[Flow control in Stella?]

I remember the USB interface failing on really long phrases in Phrasealator. But a conventional serial port interface (powered by an external PSU) worked fine.

 

AAMOI I've always found USB-serial interfaces not to be as reliable as actual serial ports.

[Flow control in Stella?]

I set the FTDI_RL CTS to inverted (firmware is flashable through the USB).

 

Also, CBUS0 and CBUS1 (connected to the AVox's EEPROM) are set to I/O mode. I was hoping someone would one day code an EEPROM util.

[Flow control in Stella?]

This is the schematic for the interface. AVox buffer full is connected to serial Clear To Send (CTS) pin.

[Atarivox problems]

There's a possibility this could be because of a faulty / different variant sound chip in the Vec.

Did you PM me here ? (it's not come through)

[Couple new items from Sean Kelly]

A multicart with a fixed number of games on is pretty much out of date as soon as you buy it.

FYI this is what the cart looks like now (new PCB / label / LED)

[atarivox startup sound change]

It requires re-programming the microcontroller.

I think it would be easier to write a simple Atari 2600 program for copying, no?

 

That would be cool
