How can we submit new cartridges to be included in future compilations? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Ksarul Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 9 hours ago, arcadeshopper said: of course.. it will run every cartridge made back in the day and 99% of the new stuff long as the rom is 1024kb or less and is not inverted.. (378 style rom) or grom <90k you need 32k memory expansion to run both of those carts though so if you don't have that the carts themselves will complain Aren't those the specs for the FinalGROM? The FlashROM99 will only run GROM using loaders that throw the code into the 32K space for execution, which would interfere with the operation of TI Writer and Multiplan. Note that the execution files (Editor or Formatter for TI Writer) can be launched and run without the cartridge, as was done with the BA-Writer files or with Funnelweb.

OOPS fixing sorry I can't understand why anyone would be using the discontinued flashrom99 that only does 32k of ROM when the finalgrom does so much more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gferluga Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 On a beige console of mine (with blue power button) only the FlashRom99 works. The FinalGrom is not recognised. I don't know why. Btw on that console only original TI carts work, however from the FlashRom I can run any binary module, like the Atari ones. 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't there a recent experimental update for finalgrom 99 for 2.2 / qi consoles? I know i seen it in a thread awhile back, but both of my ti consoles are black and silver 1981 copyright so i did not ever bother testing it out myself.

gferluga Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 Nope. (C) 1981 Could be an Argentinian model? Or the blue power button has been swap with the original red. Anyway, no troubles, I have additional silver and beige machines to play with 🤩 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QI is the hardware 2.2 is the ROM there's a section on the console type.. you can tell easily by the side port and also the alpha lock bug. If your joysticks work for up with the alpha lock down (and you haven't modified your keyboard with a diode) you have a QI board Greg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+acadiel Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 Just FYI (and don't think anyone's tried this yet), but my FinalGROM at v1.3 (latest) does boot on a TI-99/4, but the keyscan routine keeps it from actually being used on the 99/4. It just sits at the root directory. I opened an issue on the FinalGROM git about it. @OLD CS1 you can blame for this one. He asked me if it worked on it since I'm setup right next to him.

No video, no proof. I doubt it will be any different, but we should try my FG99 with the 1.Q firmware. I also need to re-flash me spare one to see if that fixes its flakiness.
