Rybags Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Just saw this on ABBUC. Pretty impressive. No idea if the placement and values of the resistors is correct on the internal flythrough. Shame there's no panning or other effects of the overhead view later in the demo, but I get the feeling it's just a flat surface projection produced from a photo. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yg3zaG0uAWA&hd=1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 That's pretty slick. Of course, I'm worried about that Micron RAM in there.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
des-OR-mad Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Hello, thank you for mentioning my 800XL animation. This a complete Blender 3d Model, not just a simple projection. I decomposed a real machine into single pieces and modeled everything by hand. The project took about four years (with some breaks). You find some more details in my blog about the whole project: http://des-or-mad.net/blog/artikel/wip-3d-atari-800xl.html (Sorry, it's only available in german.) In the next few days all 3d models will be released under Creative Commons Attribution - ShareAlike. Greetings, Oliver 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Philsan Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Awesome Oliver! Perhaps for the video I would use an original (stereo) Pokey tune. It would be nice to have renderings to use them as wallpapers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 It is great! It is a PAL (or Secam?) atari... since the RF channel switch isn't there... Am I right that the resistors do not match the right Ohm values? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
des-OR-mad Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Hello, thanks for the comments. @Marius1976: Right, it's the PAL version and the resistors should match the real hardware. This applies to all electronic components like capacitors, inductors, transitors and so on. I used two boards as reference and removed all components from one of them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thelen Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Wow Oliver, This is truly amazing ! When I was watching it i was thinking of the amount work done...4 years ! it's so detailed, Taiwan on the sio connector.So cool ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
des-OR-mad Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 @Thelen: Thanks for your comment Well, the whole project took about 4 years but with a lot of breaks. Everything was done in my very rare spare time. BTW: I've just uploaded a new 360° turnaround animation -> https://www.youtube....bed/Os2ye-Yivrw 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClausB Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Nice! It would be cool to see it from an electron's point of view. Make the components semi-transparent and fly around inside the circuit traces and component leads. Of course, you might have to model a chip die or two (maybe you could borrow from the Virtual 6502).

+CharlieChaplin Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 (edited) And err, the 800XL in "3D" on the A8 - just a Gr.8 animation but still impressive: http://www.atari.fan...hp?files_id=463 Now Oliver, do the same with an Atari 1400XL, a 1450XLD and an Atari 65XEP... -Andreas Koch.

Thelen Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 BTW: I've just uploaded a new 360° turnaround animation -> https://www.youtube....bed/Os2ye-Yivrw Very cool ! Also, I looked at your site and noticed that you're the one makes that nice ABBUC covers ! Great work ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
