Vectrex console FPGA game on DE10 lite - update

Vectrex VHDL source code updated to rev 0.2 available at :

https://sourceforge.net/projects/darfpga/files/Software%20VHDL/vectrex/

Synchronise ramp vs blank signals.
Better text position. Clean sweep maze much better, not yet perfect but very playable now.
Every games should get benefit.

  1. Can the Vectrex FPGA core generate signals that would allow playing on a oscilloscope in XY mode?

  2. This would required digital to analog converter (DAC) to be used. Depending on board there can be some DAC available. Eg VGA output allow 3 analog signal. It could be tried to use 2 of them to drive oscilloscope in XY mode. However as far as I can remember there is no beam intensity modulation in XY mode. This could result in showing every 'link' between any segment. Don't know if there is a mean to cut off beam intensity between segment. Maybe some oscilloscope could use a third signal to drive beam intensity.

    Thank you for your interest and comment.
