So I was looking to try my hand at making a MVS homebrew. Is the neobitz devkit still available for download? Where is a good place for resources to get a grasp on the basic framework?
What kind of money were you thinking of making?
I noticed Jeff doesnt have his tools posted on NeoBitz anymore, I have a zip of them I found on a website a while back. I wonder if he has any updated version he would be willing to share? If not I can post the ZIP i currently have that he released a while back. I think its the version some other dude used then tried to take credit for
Edit: Here is a link, ill leave it up for a bit, https://www.mediafire.com/?yyg2gifij357ny4
There's really no off the shelf solution, testing code usually means burning and fitting a bunch of EPROM.
That's that or designing whole PCB/adapters for other kinds of memory (like PCMCIA flash cards).
In most situations you can debug better on mame anyway, it's pretty accurate and you can watch ram values etc...
Yeah, forgot about this. Is the bios available tho or is it still in dev?
Not released quite yet, but its getting there.
Minor correction to this - the development bios is stable and has been available for some time. The NGCD Universe Bios release (which also has built in pc2neo/development features) is still under development.
When you purchase a PC2NEO development kit you receive the PC2NEO USB adapter, development bios, PC client code, and one of NeoTurfMasta's Neobiosmasta's for NGCD. Turf, have you finished testing your latest version of the NGCD NBM?
He took them off the site because some guy on NGFL tried to claim it as his tools and didn't credit Jeff for all the work he put in to making them. Send Jeff an email on his site Neobitz.com, he might have some new tools to make things even easier.
Xian xi this really disturbing to read I been a member there for years due to it was mostly uk based back in the day. There is basically only a handful of us who regularly visit thease days. Do you mind pm me the users ID if you can remeber it. I hate to have a rat in the rank's.
That's the one.
