Moon Cresta

Post by heatsink128 »

Am trying to get the moon cresta .wav to load on my real 32 with no success, the title screen goes up but then I either goe nothing more or an i/o error. Have gotten everything else I have tried(25+ games) to load no worries except this one. Am burning the .wav files as audio to CD then loading via a personal CD player. Anyone else have problems with this game?
Advice appreciated, I am using BURN on Mac OSX to make the discs BTW.
Best regards,
Chris

Afraid to say I just played out the WAV from this site into a real Dragon, and it loaded fine. Took ages, mind - it's gapped for some reason.

Check your burn? Make sure it sounds like data and is 5:49 long.

Edit: Oh, and be sure there were no transcode steps between the WAV and the burn - if for some reason it got converted to and from MP3 en-route, that could mess things up.

Edit2: No idea how likely it is to have it, but any automatic level control on your playback device should be disabled if possible.

Thanks for the advice, still no luck I'm afraid. Going to try and copy it too a tape cassette and load it with my trusty old Radio shack data recorder, think I can get more volume than with the CD player.

Have you tried hooking the audio output (either speaker or headphone socket) of your Mac to your Dragon and using the Mac as the 'tape' player?
