Requirements
IMP3 was written from scratch in assembly language and has very few requirements or dependencies. If you have the Impbox hardware add-on (discussed later in the article) which provides networking, the requirements are:
Any Amiga with Motorola 68000 CPU and 512K memory and 2.0 or higher Kickstart.
If you don't have an Impbox, the requirements are:
Any Amiga with Motorola 68000 CPU and 512K memory and 2.0 or higher Kickstart.
Any TCP/IP stack installed on your Amiga and a working Internet connection.
That's it! No harddrive, no inflated memory requirements, no accelerators. It will run on practically any Amiga, from a bare-bones A500 with 2.0 Kickstart all the way to the A4000 with 060 accelerators and the latest 3.2 AmigaOS, PowerPC platforms with 4.1 OS, Macintoshes Pro with MorphOS installed, Aros on 60080 Vampires, or emulated on FS-UAE or Win-UAE. For the TCP/IP stack, it really only needs a functioning bsdsocket.library and a properly configured Internet connection.

Commodore AMIGA - VU Meter Case build 💾🍺🎵🚦

I borrowed a MIG welder off my father in-law, to make up a little case / frame for my VU meter, that I've had laying about naked for far too long. these are my first attempts at welding, but didn't mess it up too badly. More practice required before I embark on something more challenging 😛 some photos and video of the project avoiding any close ups of my welding joints.. Good enough and was a f...

I sold my AMIGA A500 to a school friend around 1993/94. I had an amazing opportunity to buy it back! I totally refurbished it, including deep clean retrobrighting recap rf shield painting floppy drive overhaul making it fit for another 30 years. But I'm not selling it this time. #amiga #commodore #A1200 #A600 #A500 #A500mini #A500plus #A500 #retro #retrogaming #vintage #vintagegaming #arcadegam...

    Did you fix the garbage floppy drive?

    • @retro101gamer
      @retro101gamer Місяць тому

      Just serviced it, it is Still working lovely. I now have an external gotek that plugs into the external floppy drive port and then a switch to set it as df0. So that has reduced the need to always use the floppy drive. I will add a spitfire accelerator eventually, which has an ide port. Therefore, I plan to add an SD2IDE interface and load the SD card with workbench, utilites and whdload games. Or just put AmigaGamesSelector on the SD card. Which will virtually make the internal floppy drive redundant, apart from nostalgia floppy loading. But I love the floppy 💾 drive. It is an integral part of the Amiga.

    Not quite my cup of tea to be honest, but it is not hard to say that it is an excellent job still. And great to see that someone cares for the ECS chip set still. One little thing that really interested me was the VU meter to the left of the machine. Would it be possible to update the description with any details on that pretty please with sugar on top?

    That was funny! The ST was a full panic "lets get it out now" situation. It was developed in less than 6 months. They did not have time to develop custom chips etc. The end result: That Atari had an 8mhz 68000 CPU, The Amiga had a 7.16mhz 68000 CPU, (they set it at that speed for better NTSC compatibility. The Atari had a built in MIDI port, The Amiga did not come with one, you had to spend $25-50 for a midi port adapter. The Atari could display 16 colors out of 512. The Amiga could display 32 out of 4096 colors or 64 out of 4096 colors in Extra Half Brite mode, ( take the 32 colors you have picked and it will allow all you to add all of those at half the brightness with ZERO performance loss). It can also display 4096 colors in HAM mode or Sliced HAM, (neither is very practical for games). There are limitations on the 4096 Colors on screen at once. In HAM, (hold and modify), mode each color information from the pixel next to it. In Sliced HAM, they re-define the color palette every scan line, The Amiga has hardware accelerated graphics, the ST does not. The Amiga has the first "Fully Pre-Emptive Operating System on a Home Computer", (ST fans would ask, "Why would anyone want to run more that one program at a time??"). The Sound Chip on the Amiga was vastly superior to the Pokey Sound Chip on the ST. I guess this is getting too long. Bottom Line, the Atari ST was developed in an insanely short period of time. It was a great computer and a great price. What really made us Amiga users mad was ever present "Lazy Atari ST Port" games. They would make a game on the ST, then do a crappy port to the Amiga where they just use the CPU for all the work. No Custom Chips are used to enhance game play. It gave us that, "wow, they could have hired someone who knows how to program an Amiga". Yes I have several STs and Amigas in my collection. The ST and Amiga made home computer a Dream compared to the competition.

    You don't expect an Amiga 500 Plus to look brand new and still have the Commodore logo with those adaptations! It's as if an agreement has been made with Commodore showing the B-52's and reverse engineering!

    The biggest issue with these is the custom chips. If building these depletes the stocks of spares then ultimately it is counter-productive. For rebuilding an A500+ that's been destroyed by a leaking battery then the new PCBs are useful.
