Another long term Jag fan here (which is why I knew of the Nuon - following Minter's blog back in the Project X / Mario Killer days :) ). I have almost all of the official releases and some rare ones like the 2 original release Air Cars, 2 Battlespheres, 1 BSG (all 3 bought at initial release, so sanely priced), Gorf CD, and a Skunk Board.

That Gorf CD is a freaking treat. I always wanted to play that version but never got the chance.

No. 25 of 50 Limited Edition of Gorf CD reporting for duty, Sir! :D

Not sure if its because i never played any Gorf ports before, but i think its the reason i royally suck at this game...

My rarest Jaguar piece would probably be the Telegames US, Atari Jaguar Flashcart with Towers II Beta on it (along with Telegames documentation on it).

Man, i spent a fortune on my Jaguar collection... :confused:

great towers 2 beta i got aircars 94 beta from telegames :)
Awesome! :) I don't mind Aircars that much (had a sealed ICD version that i sole regrettably a few years ago) - got a '94 release for Gaz, and probably looking to get multiple KA version to LAN at future events. Just need more network adapters... (DAMN! Wish i didn't sell my spares!)

I gave my aircars 94 to Gaz to make his release ,if you look at your cartridge you can see my names over it (i'm Marco Pasquali). Peter of Telegame uk give it to me,i'm the owner of Brain Fusion shop in italy and i have bought many items from Telegames in the last 20 years so Peter give it to me this rare cartridge and i give it to the jaguar comunity to dump it for free so many peole can enjoy this rare version of a rare game!

Ah, YES! Now i remember! Well thank you for doing that! I always like to see and compare the differences between different releases. Unfortunately, in the time i have played both Towers II games, there is very little noticeable difference between the two versions. I had a special project in mind for this when i bought it but time and resources were not on my side. I have picked up the project as of the beginning of this year and hope to see it finished by the end of the year. ;)

My Nuon Collection
...
Done.

Nice collection of players mate! :) I see you have multiples of some - do you collect with anything specific in mind? Personally I have 2 versions (N-501 & SD-2300) and am looking to get one of each model to take around all the Aussie gaming events for show and play :)

My collection is just grab it when I see it for a good deal. Because I spend my year between opposite sides of the country I have duplicated for just about everything I have. Anything out side a duplicate is only because I picked up the extra's at a good price

Ah, yep, i know the feeling (from when i used to live between my place and my girlfriends: 1.5 hrs away). My first NUON cost me over $200 shipped (expensive for the time because it came bundled with TNT and all was CIB). I later picked up my 2nd NUON - N501 for only... $15 BIN on eBay! :D That was advertised as a DVD player only so i lucked out. But yes, you got to love a bargain!

Adolobe you have 4 boxed N501s? Wow.

Ever want to sell one of those let me know. I have a friend looking for a system and he doesn't want to pay ebay prices...

Hey, I'm from Mountain View, California. Former VM Labs engineer.

I used to have a bunch of relatively unique NUON stuff, but I sold most of it on eBay a while back. I still have a few items, including my old dev unit. I really should get rid of that since there is almost zero chance I'll get around to working on it again.

If you're considering getting rid of it (the dev unit), please PM me and we can discuss.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
