Just a demo version
Probably I should add your channel to the monitoring list after all.

I have just released the first official release for neptUNO FPGA and published the source files:

Yes, and a new Retrocrypta Twitch program is scheduled today:

Where should I look for the latest core for the MiSTer FPGA? I'm running the 20220501 version I found on https://misterfpga.org/viewtopic.php?t=4645 - is that the latest one available? :-)

Thank you for pouring your time into this - it means a lot to an old Enterprise fan, and as my physical Enterprise machines are slowly dying off because of various issues, it's nice to know that the FPGAs will preserve it! :-)

I have already notified Kyp your question, He will answer soon.

The Mister is property of sorgelig, so new EP core versions will mandatorily go through his approval. The Mister Main feature or drawback is its front-end and included Arm processor.

The developers of the EP core are the Spanish RW group, and they work on other easier FPGAs, like the Neptuno, without a special firmware or front-end.

Of course there are newer versions of the EP core, and they will slowly surface.

Sorry, I have confused the Mist sorgelig's project with the Mister open project, sorry....

Better wait for Kyp...

I'm half way through the MiSTer version but got stuck trying to use the SDRAM, apparently it's a bit special. I'll get back to it at some point.

What happened to your machines?

I would be curious to know. It's gotten to the point where almost everything except the Nick chip and the Dave chip can be fixed on the Enterprise.

Kyp has finished his Enterprise core for the MISTer FPGA. Those of you that own such FPGA can download from here.

In the case you are interested on such devices but don't have a MISTer, don't run in a hurry to buy that expensive FPGA, the time has arrived that other better and cheaper alternatives are at hand, with capacity for bigger cores and better specifications. 

These new FPGA platforms are being actually designed by MANUFERHI with special petitions of the Core developers members of the Spanish RetroWiki FPGADEV team.

I will add more information on near future, but by now you can translate some Retrowiki web-page threads.

The custom chip NICK's HDL code is under:
EP/HDL/VIDEO.v
The DAVE (especially the audio part of it) is under:
EP/HDL/AUDIO.v

 The HDL language which used is called "Verilog".

Ok, but this core still needs more development to behave exactly like Nick and Dave.

Also, I already explained that having a "silly box" that behaves like the Enterprise, this not means we have a Verilog description of all the signals and their correspondence with the chip pins to then be able transplant a clone to the EP. There is still a long path to achieve that.

Hi Guys,

I've recently acquired a Sidi64 FPGA, I bid (past. tense, poor english language :D ) for it on an auction especially because the EP core has been ported onto it from Mist. This Saturday is EP Klub Day here in Hungary! Can't wait to bring the Sidi FPGA there and test it more in depth!

Sadly, the readme is not very lengthy: https://github.com/ManuFerHi/SiDi-FPGA/tree/master/Cores/Computer/ElanEnterprise Is there a more detailed description of the core? For example, is there a way to read the contents from a folder of the SD card? It is quite a pain in the Elan that can't add easily new files or fetch BASIC files saved in the core to and from the vhd and floppy images.

Is there any way to change the EP config the core runs? How can I mount TAP files and load them in the core?

Is it the most recent version of the core that I linked?

Thx,
K.

Hi!

The core has it's own topic in the MiST section (not very detailed, but contains some info):
