Exactly what it says. You load your emulator, load in the exe and run it.

I can't understand how a Dragon program that works under Dragon emulation on XROAR or MESS won't be usable on a real Dragon.

Hello again, I just thought I would give you a small update before our Christmas break. To clarify the project to you all, so that there is no misunderstanding, the program will be in the form of an emulator for the Dragon. Unfortunately there are very few of us who still remember 6809 code , and b...

Steve, re your questions: I'll scan the cassette cover and instructions shortly. No mention of Dragon 32 only. No special keys mentioned. Thanks Mike. :D Please Zip them, and attach to your reply. Is it just me..........I've tried your .cas files (not the zm ones) on xroar but still don't work - I ...

I have taken the conversion one step further by modifying both games for use with the Tandy CoCo. The attached versions are compatible with Dragon 32, Dragon 64, and Tandy Color Computer models 1, 2, and 3. Both PAL and NTSC machines are supported. Audio Wave (.wav) files are included for easy trans...

Mike, Thanks for taking the time to record, and upload these games. Regards, Steve A request. Can someone please scan in the cassette cover, and upload it here. Some questions about Middle Kingdom: (1) Is there an instruction sheet? (2) Does it mention on the cassette cover, or in the instructions (...

Simon,

Full step-by-step instructions are listed below for anyone who has these games at home, and would like to make them Dragon 64 compatible. Breakout (1) POKE144,2:POKE145,0:PCLEAR1 (2) Load from the original cassette with CLOADM"BREAKOUT" (3) POKE7720,248:POKE7725,55 (4) Save to a good quality backup ...

Thanks for the info, Ciaran. I did test them under Dragon 64 emulation. :) The reason they don't work on a Dragon 64 is because both games select the D64's 64K mode ROM during initialisation. I have modified the initialisation routines of both games to make them Dragon 64 compatible. The modified ve...

Just tried the CAS files, but they don't work. They load in OK, but crash the computer when running.

Here's a handy DOS detach utility from Steve Woolham. Two versions are supplied, one for the Dragon 32/64, and one for Tandy Color Computer models 1, 2, and 3. A utility like this is invaluable if you happen to own an original Dragon or CoCo DOS disk system. There's a lot of software (games/utilitie...
