Thank you so much for this great job! Specially to Sean for his hard work in getting the dump using a method that I still find fascinating... amazing!

Thank you both. :)

Best,
Berger

Silly me!

I said "using a method that I still find fascinating... amazing!" because as Sean's speciality is a very complex process consisting of decapping and microscopic analysis, thanks to which we have previously achieved some otherwise impossible dumps, I thought this was the method used here. But it was an "electronic dump".

It was very complex anyway and my congratulations are still applicable. :D

Best,
Gerardo

How Sean Riddle does it is described on his website at https://seanriddle.com/decap.html.

It's a really amazing process!

And he also has time for his paid work and building beautiful bridges like this one!

Hi...

Schon wirklich krass :respekt:
Gibt es dann Hoffnung auf dem CXG Enterprise S ?
CPU ist ja ein HD6301V1

Hello,

es ist hoffnungslos!!!
da es bereits geschehen ist!

Enterprise S is not dumped yet, but yes I expect it can be dumped/emulated soon.
Unless you're hinting that you (or know someone who) already extracted the rom?

Re: Mess Emulator für diverse Schachcomputer ist fertig!
 

Hello Hap,

I know someone who did, and for 3 others chess computers with 6301, including the Chess Companion II.

... and what about the Kittingers Super VIP/Super Nova?

Cordially Roberto

Re: Mess Emulator für diverse Schachcomputer ist fertig!
 

And would they be willing to let MAME emulate those rom dumps?
Either way, a CXG Star Chess should be on the way soon to Sean, we bought one a week ago, not knowing it was already dumped.

I only know of these that have a 6301V1:
0609V171: Chess Companion II, Explorer Chess, Concord/Concord II, Olympiade, Electronic Chess Mark 8, and 2 Tandy clones.

HD6301V1C42P: Enterprise S, Star Chess, Fidelity Genesis, Mephisto Merlin 4K

Any others with 6301V1? Novag Constellation Jr, maybe?


Super VIP is 6301Y0
Super Nova is already emulated.

Hello Roberto,

The Super Vip is dumped too.
