    Cromemco JS-1 Joystick Replica

    Hi, I recommend if you don't have access to a laser cutter, try printing the design on paper until you can measure the paper print to match the specs of the .DXF vector file. Then using an Exacto knife, it's not too difficult to cut up an old cereal box or get some construction paper to cut...

    Cromemco JS-1 Joystick Replica

    Hi, Your goal is to build as authentic as possible, then the project still requires a DAZZLER board that doesn't need lifted IC PINs, added jumper wires and a joystick circuit board design that is accurate to the original too. With the circuit boards correct, then anybody can build them up...

    Cromemco JS-1 Joystick Replica

    Hi, I'm thinking perhaps a good starting point is Gerber files for the Joystick circuit board ... things like the switches and stick connections should probably be female Dupont headers to allow people to build any type of joystick they want with the components being from original part numbers...

    Cromemco dazzler replica project

    Hi, Cool ... great start to new gaming ... Sans joysitcks, two people could be in this game via dial-up modem connections to make it more exciting. Both players would try to get to the dot first and a collision would cost maybe 10% of their snake length where snake length is the scoring ...

    Hi, R/C radios are setup for airplanes, helicopters and boats ... the left arm is throttle up 'n down so that's why it doesn't return anywhere, the left right function is rudder so after the turn, the rudder needs to return to straight. .

    Hi, The thing is the DAZZLER is not designed for that kind of graphics, it's like if I compared a 2K/inch pixel image comparing it to your IBM image. Also, besides resolution and speed problems is memory limits. .

    Cromemco dazzler replica project

    Hi, I think we need to see a single page (PDF?) of all the fixes, and then another (PDF?) of the testing. The idea of a board that needs to be studied in several dozen if not 100 or so pages of the forum isn't very inviting. .
