All three of these versions are quite different and very fun! Dang it for waiting until the last day to try them. I have plans tonight that include adult beverages, so i'm unsure if i can submit any more scores than these first trys: R.O.D. 1 : 360 R.O.D. 2 : 360 R.O.D. 3: 13600 These are right up my alley and I'm sure I can do better. Maybe since there are three versions we could extend this month. in ROD2 you can rescue humans? I must figure this out. Thanks Retrospect for the insane games. I love the sound and the chaos and the detailed postmortems. Death by Stupidity -

I can't believe I waited until this long in the month to try this game. I'll post some scores tomorrow. So far I have ROD v1 and v2 working in Classic 99. The ROD3.bin that Globeron posted doesn't work on my Classic 99. Working for anyone else? Thanks -

Thanks to mizapf and globeron for the hints…. I now can have a better chance of beating the early levels. 12510 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
i also have a sidecar TIPI somewhere around here I could test

Thanks Beery. I see what you are saying. I can feel the connector has a lot of travel in the pins and sockets and don't think the nut in the picture is in the way. I did ohm out the cable and everything checks out. I didn't flex it much while testing continuity, but everything checked out. put it back together and same result....maybe I should order another cable. I do get something on the screen attached to the PI. i see the 4 raspberries, then the linux text as it boots up, then a login prompt.

It did work a few months ago. I could ohm this cable out.. haven’t done that yet I do feel a slight crease on three of the wires in the cable about at the midpoint…. But no obvious breaks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My Tipi (PEB) hasn't worked for some time now, but today I thought I'd try to fix it. Problem was that I would type CALL TIPI at the basic prompt and it would just hang. Today I connected a monitor and keyboard to the rpi and could see it running and log into it. I still got the hung blue screen. I decided to reflash it using the latest image "tipi-sdimage-buster-2.17.zip" - first formatting with SD Card Formatter and then writing the image with Win32DiskImager. Result: it still hangs exactly the same way. I do see the red light come on on the PEB card as soon as i hit ENTER after typing CALL TIPI. I've moved the PEB card to different slots - same result I've removed all other cards from the PEB - same result. I've tried a different TI-99 - same result. Any suggestions on what to try next? Thank you...

6395 on Computer-Car I notice that the first time playing the cars are not “complete”. They seem to look normal on the second try. Thank you for making the .bin! I also tried the “black” car wars on real iron with final grom. Got a blank blue screen probably due to start PC mismatch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
