Re: Broken screenshots

Thanks!

I only have a single in-game screen for Kane on my hard drive (corresponding to 0002673-run-2.scr ).
Perhaps I uploaded some other file first thinking it was the .scr ...

Anyway, there should only be one in-game screen, 0002673-run-1.scr can be removed :D

Re: Broken screenshots

Fixed PSSST, MORSEOVA ABECEDA and THE LOST QUILL.

As for KANE, the screen I uploaded is the second running screen (here we are mostly fixing running screens - loading screens are mostly OK).
No clue about the missing first running screen, perhaps an update bug...

Re: NEW PRESERVATION TOOLS

URLs get outdated, but it's worth preserving them. Googling an old URL can take you to a backup (way back machine) or a file copy stored somewhere else.

Re: Where any NES games ever ported to the Speccy 'Officially' ?

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...

Re: "Use your spectrum to explore the fantastic world of 3D television"

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...
