Re: Dragon Floppy Drives

lol, yes they were, I simply didnt have the time to faff with them as I've recently bought a house and now have lots and lots of jobs to do with eat into my Dragon time. :O) I'm glad they went to a good home and they were in super-mint condition after all. For interest, I will be ebaying a lot more ...

Xroar 'AUDIO ON'

Hi everyone, I'm very much into XROAR now with the latest updates, but the only thing that would make it totally perfect and make me shelve MESS alltogether is that the AUDIO ON command doesnt work. Call me sad but on my real dragon setup I like to hear the tape loading noise while it's loading by t...

XRoar Wav Files

Hi all, I'm just wondering what the best audio format for wav files is for use with Xroar -tapehack and turn them into .cas files? I converted a few tapes to stereo 44.1khz wavs and they work fine in MESS but Xroar will not load them at all, wont even change from S to F. should they be 8 bit 16 bit ...

Re: Dragon Floppy Drives

Thanks for all your help guys. I'm hoping to fit a bezeled 3½" drive in the bottom part with luck and a normal 5¼" in the top.

I think messing around with drivebelts etc after trying to source them is something for a future rainy day. :O)

Hi there, I've quite recently purchased a dual official Dragon external drive for my setup although in very nice condition does not read disks.

Re: Perilous Pit .cas file problems?

Hi guys, This game DOES works for me, but you MUST REMOVE ANY DOS ROM's and run as a basic D32, same with the majority of Blaby games and also Incentive games too. [back track, eddie steady go, moon cresta] hope this helps. if not I have a copy on cas file, audio [zipped] or minidisc I can share. Ch...

Re: bum files

Hi there, don't know if this helps at all but I've noticed that some games really dont like working when there is a dos cartridge inserted, either in the emulator or on the real thing. Took me a while to work this out but it's a simple fix. either run without dos in the emulator, run a dos detatch p...

XROAR emulator problem with audio.

Hi everyone, Not sure if it's not been written into the emulator yet or maybe i'm just doing something wrong here. I've found that the AUDIO ON command doesnt allow the sounds from the .cas files to come through the pc output like in MESS. Is this 'just how it is' or do I need to set something in Xr...
