Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles was ported from the NES to various home computers, including the Spectrum . Can't think of any other ports that originated on the NES. Looking at the NES maps ( http://www.thealmightyguru.com/Wiki/index.php?title=Teenage_Mutant_Ninja_Turtles_(video_game) ) they look dife...

Snapswap, Mathematics 'O' Level and European Championship Cup fixed.

New scr captures uploaded and border colours updated

Fixed Brian Jacks Superstar, Bowling Star, Star Firebirds, The Custard Kid, Death Star, Death Star Interceptor and Evening Star It's no problem at all, in fact I welcome the help in sorting this out. (I'll be away for a few weeks and won't be able to do any fixes. But feel free to keep listing probl...

Angle Ball, Stiff lip & Co and Confuzion fixed

Champions fixed

Do try green. It filters as good as red so you get ghost free images. And it's about the same density as red, so both images will be equally bright. Trust me on this, red/green works much better. Keep using Cyan on the Spectrum because it works with both sets of glasses. There's no gain in using gre...

Fixed all Mastertronic Compilation and Collection titles - compilation running screens should remain as animated GIFs
New SCR captures for Formula One and Kane

On Manic Miner I don't see any attribute problem...

Fixed Demons & Drivers

I found this topic since I am learning and testing anaglyphs in a BASIC game. The games above mentioned I am afraid that do not work so well (my craft glasses work with some YT anaglyp vids, but not with those games). You have two problems. One is the quality of the colour lenses. Red cellophane is...

Fixed THE MICRO AT WORK SOFTWARE CASSETTE 1 (and 2).
Fixed TRANS-EXPRESS 85.2

(new screen uploaded for Trans-Express with cyan border)

I remember that some TVs supported RGB and S-Video over scart.
You needed to press a button on the set (or a button combination) to setup de desired mode.
Also, if the TV has two scarts, usually only one is RGB.

THE BRAIN TRAIN fixed

CORRIDORS OF GENON fixed.
Captured a proper .scr, uploaded using the preservation tools (also set border to blue on the loading screen).

THE BIRDS AND THE BEES fixed
Captured a proper .scr, uploaded using the preservation tools.

I second [mention]Alessandro[/mention]'s opinion about poor gameplay and poor graphics. For example, there's no easy way to drag the play area around, you need to click around the edges. And the play area is too zoomed in, a smaller scale would have been better for the Spectrum. The units are hard t...

Much better now! :D :D It's a really good game! My only suggestion is to have some mention to keyboard shortcuts visible during gameplay. I had to return to the forum to see that X showed blocked tiles. No need for a full explanation, just something like "QAOP SP Z R" at the bottom right o...

[mention]zxcygnus[/mention] Yes a contrast option would be great!
Green background is not a big problem, as long as the tiles use different colours. This would work well for me:

Great work, really enjoyed it ;) I like that the tiles are nicely drawn and in color. Interface is simple and responsive enough. My only problem is with the green colour on pieces. Green is really problematic on the Spectrum. It's too light so it won't contrast well with white. Also the Green backgr...

I think I did but don't remember...
Can you mention 'replacement' on the upload form (green area) so that we have a standard solution for these cases ?

Friends, I just released my first native Android App! It converts any image (from camera or gallery) to specific hardware palettes. Conversion is based on colour distance taking into account perceived brightness. The results are good I think :D ! I'm not simulating specific resolutions because my fi...

Thanks Einar, makes sense. It's a two step process, like adding images for new titles using the preservation tools - those also require two updates.
No problem and no rush!

[New files] 0003316-run-1.scr (Running screen) 0003807-run-1.scr (Running screen) 0005671-run-1.scr (Running screen) These should have replaced the old GIFs as the main in-game images. A good example is Pole Position , where the GIF has tearing. But they were simply added as extra images. Perhaps w...

I have some doubts about the vertical dither pattern used for the ground plane. Doesn't look that good because it covers most of the play area.
Most titles did the sky and ground as solid colours, and used patterns for smaller objects like the runway.

But I like the mockup a lot! Great work!
