Re: Pyradventure (1987)(Dragonfire Services)

very interesting how it plays a short Audio sample before loading the screen data.

is it possible the Audio could be stored as RAW data in the CAS format?

i did manage to create a CAS edit with the audio sample removed.
just because i wanted to have a working CAS version for my frontend. ;)

Re: help 64k disk

thanks, i still can't get that game to load. i *think* it requires DDOS to load the other parts of the game after the boot program has disabled ddos. so maybe only ok for single load files. this program looks like it could do the job, but i need to get it on a disk image to load and test it. load64....

help 64k disk

Please can someone tell me the correct command-line (MAME / Xroar) or poke to enable 64k in DDOS.

i can not get this game to load.
is it broken?.

i can get 64k TAPEs working in Dragon64 typing EXEC to get a blue cursor.
but DDOS seems disabled with this command.

any help welcome. :mrgreen:

Re: repaired games from bad tapes

Now, the question is, do we have a verified dump from an original tape? Because the wav in the archive is clearly generated and not recorded from a tape, and this cas file has a completely different structure as the previous one. Hi Rob, The "working" copy i posted, is NOT from an original tape, bu...

Re: repaired games from bad tapes

This is one of the best Dragon games i have seen. and now we all have a working version. :D Dark Star (Design Design) The current version in the archive crashes MAME and Xroar, if you do not reconfigure control options before playing. *this crash can be fixed if you save and then load your settings ...

Re: repaired games from bad tapes

I finished extracting A-Z Chase from the wav file. I think that the program is twice on the wav file as it seems to be complete. Many thanks for that! :D the tape inlay says the program is recorded twice on each side of the tape. So it's not another part or extra data for the game. the wav is in st...
