Also bei uns heißt das "Abwarten und Tee drinken" - das werden aber vermutlich viele Liter (oder Hektoliter) Tee sein ... ;)

It's never "final version" ;D

Here's a quick list of chesscomputers again, if Berger ever obtains one for repairs (or borrows one from a collector), it can be dumped and emulated. I probably missed some.

I did not include one-off prototypes or tournament chess computers. I did not include ones with SH1 CPU, which is currently not known how to dump. Maybe there are people (like Sean Riddle) who could figure out how to dump this chip, but chesscomputers with this MCU are too expensive to just buy 1 to experiment on. Oh, and I also did not include HMCS40/HMCS400, though Sean can dump those.

Chess King:
- Philidor (Z80)
- Counter Gambit (6301)

CXG:
- Chess 3000 (Z80)
- Chess 3008 (6301)
- Sphinx 40/50 Plus (6502)
- Sphinx Accolade/Concerto/Legend (H8)

Excalibur:
- Grandmaster (H8)

Fidelity:
- Travel Master (H8)
- Little Chesster (MCU, but probably can be dumped)
- SC6 modules: Book Openings I, Greatest Games
- Mini Chess Challenger modules: Greatest Games
- other modules: 64 Greatest Games, Tarrasch Defense

H+G(Mephisto):
- Mondial module: MM 1000
- MM VI (H8)

Novag:
- Star Sapphire (H8)
- Ruby (H8)
- Obsidian (H8)
- Xiangqi (Chinese Chess, there are 2 newer ones, maybe H8)

SciSys/Saitek:
- Sensor Chess module: Hyper Modern Super Strong
- Brute Force module (H8)
- President (H8)

Other:
- Intellect-02 modules: Kalah (any more?)
- GGM/MGS modules: Monitor (Master Kriegspiel), Borchek
- Conchess modules: Victoria opening library (and currently we only have the prototype Victoria?)
- CLJ L'Empereur (no hopes, too rare)
- Milton Bradley Phantom/Milton/Grandmaster

Ja, jetzt wo Du es sagst ... :o

Darum update ich auch nur noch einmal pro Halbjahr ... weil es locker einen ganzen Nachmittag dauert, bis ich alles so habe, dass es perfekt ist. Das fängt bei jeder Menge Artworks an, geht über NVRAMs bis hin zu eigenen Listen etc. pp. :D

Excalibur Phantom & Fidelity Phantoms


I marked in Green what I have and in blue what I think I have but would have to check.
I wish you were in the USA then I am sure I could help. But shipping to Europe and back is just not something that I would do nowadays & too expensive.

Nick

Berger & me are in Europe (I don't dump roms, I just program the emulator).

Sean Riddle can also dump chess computers, he's located in the USA, Oklahoma. He can be contacted at: me at seanriddle dot com. He's the person that figured out how to dump 6301, H8, HMCS400, many chesscomputers were dumped thanks to him.

Ich sags ja: Abwarten und weiter den Thread verfolgen... Scheint ja noch ein paar Schätzchen zu geben.

Perhaps you should spend your next holiday in Spain (with all those chess computers in your luggage) and visit Berger? :D

Usually, a ROM dump and possibly a PCB photo are sufficient for 'hap'.
If the EPROM is socketed, then such a ROM dump shouldn't be too difficult (provided you have an EPROM reader).

Franz

Auf meiner Seite.. Ich hatte es nie beendet.. Aber alles was ihr da sieht mit "Coming Soon" habe ich, plus ein paar andere die ich nie dazugekommen bin.

Gruss
