Re: Rate Limiting Introduced

I need to update my tool called ZX Pokemaster and also update TOSEC for the new release. I usually do this one in several years and I do download files with a scraper. Can we arrange something so I can download the files once in several years without being banned?
Thank you.

Re: New TOSEC of ZXSpectrum (Nov 2017)

@Pegaz the latest TOSEC is not on archive.org. You need to use your SE skills, eg it's on a well known torrent site (think Mad Max 3). I will release it later, because I have yet another addition to TOSEC planned. I cannot make a new torrent too often, because I have too many things to do otherwise...

Re: New TOSEC of ZXSpectrum (Nov 2017)

archive.org collecton has each file zipped in its own zip archive.
rutracker.org collection has the same files, but sorted and archived by category.

Re: New TOSEC of ZXSpectrum (Nov 2017)

Thanks, can you share download or torrent link? I can't find it. Apparently it got deleted for some reason. Some people complained about problems with that torrent file. But I have a mirror, it just doesn't have each file in its own zip archive (I hate that standart, but it is what it is, kept it t...

I see a list of other computers there.
This is Sinclair ZX Spectrum-only collection. Other microcomputers and consoles are managed by other people. I'm not an expert in those and it's enough work in Speccy-scene alone.

Re: New TOSEC of ZXSpectrum (Nov 2017)

Yes, I did all the updating for TOSEC, semi-automatically, there's actually even github code of my tools used for that. I've united the previous version of TOSEC with ZXDB (database based in InfoSeek, but way better organized and up-to-date), scraped numerous obscure websites and renamed files accor...

Re: New TOSEC of ZXSpectrum (Nov 2017)

It's not "yet another" collection. I have the audacity to say that it's THE FULLEST ZX Spectrum collection to date. While you FULLEST!!!1! claim might or might not be true (eg it is 3 years old already), for me it very much is just another collection - seeing as I've been hoarding/making ...

Re: New TOSEC of ZXSpectrum (Nov 2017)

If you wish to filter out the stuff you don't need, please feel free to use ZX Pokemaster: https://sourceforge.net/projects/zx-pokemaster/files/ You can rename all files as you wish as well as filter out the ones you're not interested in. There is no currently option to skip files based on parameter...

Re: Should every new game be released with an infy lives option?

Is this a rhetorical question? Of course we should have infinite lives and (if relevant) continues! The concept of lives itself is archaic. I like old games, but I like the good aspects of old games, not replaying the same level, or worse - screen, for infinite hours. I choose infinite lives instead...
