is this also valid with the SF3000: other worlds acorn CD?
ouch: pity! karma has much potential: I saw the manual and I must say it had an epic feel... Is combat appearing in the trainer? |

Files only last three weeks so what you see there is what you get.

Topic 2: I've been making images of my Archimedes games; I recently got a batch of new ones from eBay including the 4th Dimension titles Sylvia Lane and Saloon Cars Deluxe. I made images of those two but they don't work on emulators, or on my A3010 after writing them back to floppy. Does anyone know a way around the copy protection? Topic 3: I've also scanned the manuals for Saloon Cars Deluxe and Break 147 & Superpool, and will scan others too. Anyone know of an online repository where I could usefully upload these, in the name of software preservation? |

Cant help you with the first two but if you are looking for an online repository for stuff, you could do worse than The Qube Risc OS server
http://grope.thruhere.net/Qube/home.html Charlie (also a member on here) would be delighted with your input I am sure. Register for the BB and request an FTP account. That pretty much goes for anyone in the thread who's interested and hasn't already.... Tell him I sent you (j/k) Andrew (asm1 over there too ) PS Check your PM Disco Last edited by asm1; 08 July 2010 at 00:21. Reason: PM |

If not, dont suppose you have an Amiga capable of imaging? You could image it into Tom's apd format for now so it runs in Arculator. |

In fact, please image to Tom's apd format if you can, this means Tom can test Arculator more thoroughly.

Also, in my experience, !NoDisc has only worked with SF3000.

Issue with Arculator keyboard on my laptop
Bit off-topic here, but wondered if anyone had a similar issue - on my HP HDX18 (running Windows 7 Pro) laptop, Arculator seems to not detect a few of the keys - specifically the ' key (often used for up in games), which is annoying when certain games won't let you redefine keys!
Anyone else had such issues? If so, managed to solve them? |

I've had that issue reported on another of my emulators. I'll see if I can come up with a fixed version - it's annoying as it only seems to happen on HP laptops running Windows 7.

Sad to see there are a bunch more still missing tho. Enter The Realm, Ballarena, Legend Of The Lost Temple, Cartoon World, Haunted House (Wimp Game 2) etc. Hopefully they can be properly preserved at some point. (Antom did put a copy of Ballarena up on The Zone! a long time ago.. maybe if we beg a bunch he can put another copy up? That said, I remember Ballarena only working on RISC OS2 and it had copy protection, I vaguely remember downloading the image and getting nowhere with it.. just spent 2 hours going through all my archive DVD's and can't find it anywhere >< - also Legend Of The Lost Temple turned up on Wocki's Website http://acorn.revivalteam.de/ but no-one seems to have a scan for the copy protection.. that said I know the image is good as I completely fluked picking the correct colour once and it fired up fine) Also, I never realised The Great Giana Sisters was released for the Archie! o_O hope that isn't a typo - will have to check it out at some point.

All the A3020s at my school looked a bit like that when I left in 2003. Shame, but that's what happens when you let kids near computers.
