Re: Custom Loaders
There are a number of custom loaders which are not present in that video:

Hi @Bolton80,
try this file and see if it works for you, it does for me:

I think you should ask Julian about that, his email address is at the bottom of the home page.

Re: TR-DOS.. I have questions
There's a way to run standard BASIC-TR-DOS-Commands from MCode. You can find an example here: https://worldofspectrum.org/forums/discussion/comment/957163/#Comment_957163 This is the way explained in the interface's original manual, and it is rather clumsy. Low-level Assembly TR-DOS management is a...

Re: Homebrew coin-op conversions that were never tackled commercially
Of the two arcade games I grew up on , Time Pilot and Sinistar, Sinistar didn't get converted at all as far as I know and Timepilot had some sort of effort towards it by a budget label, which I can't remember what it's called at the moment. Could it be Time Flight by Power House? https://www.spectr...

Re: Pasmo 0.5.5

Re: Homebrew coin-op conversions that were never tackled commercially
Some coin-op conversions appeared on the C64 but were only announced on the Spectrum and never surfaced. Off the top of my head: Iron Horse, Congo Bongo, Up 'n' Down. Also worth mentioning are Thunder Jaws, which only came out as a promising-looking demo, and Trojan, of which just a half-finished Sp...

Re: Podcast about the Spectrum on Floppy Days
I didn't know the early Spectrum manufacturing line at Dundee was staffed by women building the Speccies - in fact I naively thought it was a highly automated blue-lit factory like in the TV advert! There's a photo in the Spectrumpedia, Vol. 1 page 36, depicting that. Those hard-working women's han...

Re: DivMMC Future compatibility?
I bought my EnJoy some 6 years ago from Byte Delight and so far did not experience any issues, except for it being a bit loose on the +2A, so that I have to put a small booklet under it to avoid wobbling - on the 48K, 128 etc. this does not happen. Other than that, no compatibility problems whatsoev...

He answered that he had to do some tests and then executables...

Re: I, Ball - Kempston not working on +2a? And Locomotion issue.
I, Ball: Did you try the TAP file I made a while ago? It works fine with Kempston on the +2A. http://disegnareconlaluce.altervista.org
Locomotion: Did you try the fixed file from here? Again, it works fine on the +2A. https://www.alessandrogrussu.it/plus2A-en.html

Hi @Alessandro quick question. Has Jackson Soft (Italy) re-released a title outside the covertape of "Magazine Jackson Soft Oro Spectrum"? Because if that is the case, there is no need of having it as "re-release" on titles like Pyjamarama, since it is already mentioned as a cov...
