Re: north sea oil

If you download xroar-0.18-tapemangle-windows32.zip from http://www.6809.org.uk/tmp/da/ , this might help fix some of those CAS files. While running, Ctrl+L to attach the CAS you want to fix, then Ctrl+W to specifiy a CAS to write to. The patched XRoar will write out nice long leaders and attempt to...

Re: TOOLS downloads

If you just want to do CAS to WAV, I have a really basic Perl script here . If you want to do WAV to CAS that's a little more involved, but the 'tapemangle' stuff in http://www.6809.org.uk/tmp/da/ does the job - basically a patch to XRoar to dump any data read from cassette (ie, the WAV file) into C...

Re: newbie sez hello!

Well it tends to be fairly quiet here... ;) I wish I had spares I could pass on to an enthusiastic newcomer, but I only have one reserve DragonDOS cart as it is - they're pretty rare on eBay. That said, if you can get the DOS cart, most old double density floppy drives will work with it - you don't ...

Re: Tano Dragon 64

You're ok, a UK PSU will work fine.

It is fun getting a spanking new boxed Dragon :) Careful though, those boxes fit *really* snugly, and tear very easily...

Re: dragon emulator on pda ?

Heh, have I given that impression? Quite right, of course - I don't even have a PDA any more, but wouldn't have got a wince one. But if anyone else has an SDK for it, the code should prove fairly easy to port, and if I can get it full speed on a DS, the sort of hardware needed to run a Windows envir...

Re: Hello

Weird that I removed it - most stuff in that directory hangs around forever.

I re-uploaded, anyway: JUXTAPOS2.CAS.

Re: ROM files for DS

No, just ensure they have a name that the emulator will find - d32.rom for Dragon 32, d64_1.rom and d64_2.rom for the Dragon 64 ones.

Note that the emulator starts up in 64 mode, but this can be changed through the menus.

Re: Hello

I've never quite understood why the PSP port can't load CAS files - it uses the same file handling abstraction as everything else, so if that bit was rewritten for the PSP it should just work. Unfortunately I don't have a PSP to test. I can vouch for the DS port though ;) I ripped the box for my Tan...

Re: Dargon 32 on Nintendo DS

Hi, I've download the Dragon 32 Xroar emuator for the Nintendo DS. However, when I load it on the DS I see lots of inverted @'s. I'm guessing I need to find a ROM file. Yep. So my question is 1) Where can I find a ROM file? On this site, in Downloads->Roms. 2) Do I save it in the Xroar folder befor...

Re: Magazines

Is this fallout from the current Rainbow spat?

Also, is that yahoo thing still active then? Years ago it kept unsubscribing me and I eventually stopped bothering logging in to fix that.
