Re: Posting issues

Also, I can't actually see Giranda's last post in topic 11061 unless I append &start=2 to offset page 1 of the results. Before I replied, it cut off at the message above and didn't show that there should be a page 2. Now there is a page 2, but it only has my reply! Edit: &start=9 seems to start wit...

Re: Dragon Invaders dodgy tape

If a previous owner had saved it to the tape could they have used the wrong CSAVEM values?

Re: Unknown Dragon Star Trek Game.

It appeared on the 1984 version of the infamous tape, as can be seen on the wiki entry : http://archive.worldofdragon.org/images/0/05/Cassette50_Screenshot06.png I did not recognise it as I played/suffered* the 1983 version which has a different Star Trek game: http://archive.worldofdragon.org/image...

Re: XRoar1.3 v32bits problem downloading

I did send xroar-1.2-w32 to Avast/AVG. They updated their definition files so that their virus checkers no longer flagged that version of XRoar, I am surprised that they continue to flag later versions of XRoar. Anyway, I am not sure if it is worth creating 32-bit Windows versions any more. XRoar no...

Re: MXT I/O Controller

Robcfg I think I have the necessary cables and a copy of Audacity on my PC, just need you to step me through the process because it's not something I've done before. It should be similar to when I dumped the ROM from the DASM/DEMON cartridge - see Steve's (zepher) instructions at https://archive.wo...

Re: XRoar 1.1 released

VirusTotal shows that two vendors claim a problem - the sister companies Avast and AVG, so in reality just one vendor since they share the same virus definitions - so I am pretty confident that it is a false positive.

Re: XRoar 1.1 released

Would you have any problem with me uploading the file (or giving the URL) to virustotal.com?

Re: XRoar 1.1 released

Ciaran,
my antivirus software won't let me run xroar.exe found in xroar-1.2-w32.zip, claiming that it contains "Win32:MalOb-IJ [Cryp]". Can you confirm that this is a false positive?

There is no problem with xroar.exe found in xroar-1.2-w64.zip.

Re: DragonMMC Out of Memory with CoCoVGA

Perhaps the configuration settings or autoexec file have become corrupt due to the battery problem.

Re: XRoar 1.1 released

Thank you, 1.1.80 works. Note that if XP support is removed I will no longer be able to test 32-bit Windows versions of XRoar on a 32-bit version of Windows. I can still test them on 64-bit versions of Windows but then any problem arising from running XRoar on a 32-bit Windows platform may go unnoti...
