dlfsilver. I didn't know that. It was interesting to learn MAC GCR is 4us length like MFM formatting. (I haven't figured it out yet) Thanks.

Support for Alternate Reality IPF was earlier added to WINuae.

Ah Ok. Thanks. I'd read different online saying FM is 2us and MFM is 4,6,8us.

Thanks.

I have uploaded the unofficial IPF of Alternate Reality to The Zone.

To save your game you will need a blank disk with the label ARCHAR

That is what I was thinking as well...I really have no interest in this game. I need to pull all my manuals out of the closet and do some scanning.

Funny as I "finished" the game a few days ago after getting all the guild memberships.

HOL is missing the Grandslam frequent flyer card as well.

I'm not educated enough on disk images but am curious% Why does the IPF have "straightened" signals in HxC track analyser track 50.0 while my SCP and the KyroFlux dump have segments and is ziggy? I thought the squiggle was evidence of data and the GCR segments were needed? or is the "wiggle" floppy drive incompetence?

The squiggly-ness is noise. The distinct horizontal lines/bands are data.

Is the IPF conform to the kryoflux dump Abaddon used ?
