THE 64™

https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/the-64-computer-and-handheld..

I don't suppose anyone know who the "world class software and hardware engineer" is, or the "technical team from around the world"? The page fails to mention any names besides Darren Melbourne.

Its probably also more than likely that the screen will probably be the usual 60hz TFT. Want a portable C64 cheaper and more flexible? Get the JXD S7800B handheld, Install the 50hz kernal patch, Purchase C64.emu and set forced screen update to screen refresh rate.

Found several patches to perform that on a JXD S7800B, can you tell me which one did you installed and how? Thanks in advance.

It was the Custom rom by Lujji as well as the kernel patch supplied by him at the below link

http://www.arctablet.com/blog/forum/crewrktablets-rk3188-entwic..

The rockchip batch tool is used to write the firmware as well as the kernel patch to the device.

Older versions of C64.emu do not work well as it does not have the sync to refresh option. (The later version thankfully has this option) Also works well with uae4all.

paying for vice.. doesn't sit well with me. also.. no update since June?



I wonder what games (apart from Sam's Journey) they're talking about.

no further updates on their indigoslow page since the 14th of May. Anyone else got any info about what's going on with this project or the games they're trying to get?

Some news posted about this yesterday
https://the64.computer/news/

Seems they have a 3rd version going on too now, "THE64 Mini" But doesnt say much what it is. Or any more detailed info on the Desktop version.
Anyone know if this will run Demos out of the box via the USB port.
