Hi all,

I was wondering if you could help me.

I've resurrected my c64 phase... ya know.... buying magazines with
BASIC programs, spending all day typing them in and spending about 2
days finding where you made the fuk up lol.
And... sticking your tape in to load a game, going for dinner and
coming back to your room only to realise it didn't load properly lol.

Any whoo.... I'll stop my reminiscing lol....I'm looking to connect my
C64 to the i Internet and to also transfer files from/to my PC.

My goal is to play online games through my C64 and to mess about with
some BBS stuff and maybe even a server of some sort.

Some day I'd like to also setup some sort of I/O's, telnet into my C64
via my iPhone and mess about.

I've seen this card: MMC REPLAY with RR-NET module http://www.vesalia.de/e_mmcreplay.htm
Is this any good... Will this get me to my 1st stage.... e.g. getting
my C64 on to the Internet and maybe (a bonus) connecting to my home PC
via LAN?

Thanks loads

Hi!

You could also look at 1541Ultimate (http://www.1541ultimate.com/),
which has the same capabilities, but also fully implements a 1541-
drive on SD-card via FPGA.

I've got a page with some information about Ethernet on the C64. It's a bit
out of date as it doesn't talk about the 1541 Ultimate with Ethernet option,
but it's a start.

Six gave me permission to include the netlib source along with the source
for my games that use it (NetRacer, Artillery Duel). Let me know if you'd
like a copy. It's an older version but it works OK. I'll bug him about
putting the latest source back up...

He's also working on a newer, optimized version (which may be why he took
the old sources down).

I picked up a FB-Net cart a couple months ago and I've been dieing to
play around with a couple ideas... so If I could get a copy that would
be great, thanks!

Hey, so you are still around ;-)

I'd be keen on test-driving the latest version if it's available, even if
it's still a bit rough around the edges. I got to know my way around the
old code fairly well and I'd like to help out a bit, time permitting. How
can I or other interested parties get ahold of it?

Thanks
Leif
