Apologies for the radio silence over the last month or two. August through to October is my busiest time work-wise, so I don't get much time for other stuff.

Thank you
Just to clarify things,
Great Fire Of London .TAP is not a bugfix per se, i.e. the game itself is not bugged; it is a working .TAP version for emulators and interfaces which do not support TZX files. The old .TAP file, inherited from the WoS archive, does not circumvent the game's custom loader and will never work.
The
Seto games and chapters 3 and 5 in
Cousin Horace were affected by the "AGD ULA Plus bug", a flaw in the game designer software that under certain circumstances, e.g. when running on a ZX Vega, made the game be displayed on the screen in false colors.
Cousin Horace chapter 2 revised edition also had a bug which on 128K models could lead to crackling parasite sounds being played in the background. This has also been fixed.

Latest update applied. Many thanks to [mention]Einar Saukas[/mention], [mention]pavero[/mention], [mention]druellan[/mention], [mention]R-Tape[/mention] and everyone else who contributed to this update.
New entries:
Una Bruma en Stratford
The Curse of Trasmoz
Nixy and the Seeds of Doom
Rodmän
Paintball 2048
Rescate en Marte
Targ
Speccy Invaders
2048
Quite a few of these are payment only, so we're a bit short of downloadable files this time.
New utility:
AGD Mini
AGD Mini is another version of AGD by
AGD Labs that uses the compact language of ADGX and have 8 x 8 pixel sprites instead of the usual 16 x 16. It's new to ZXDB, but it started being used earlier this year and 3 games have been made with it so far (
this,
this and
this).
uMIA!
Bunkered!
It's just a blank ID at the moment, but this one is quite a sexy uMIA. It started with
this thread by [mention]Slarty[/mention]. Gilby and him are now in touch, and hopefully this will result in usable TZX and screenshots soon.
Additional:
Updated files for
Cousin Horace

It's a graphics crack isn't it? Do you think it should have its own ID? Ralf's Renegade MODs never did.

So a mod which changes level design (think of all these crappy Jet Set Willy mods) is worth uploading but a mod which replaces the graphics isn't?
In such case we shouldn't have stuff like this Barbarian mod here:
https://spectrumcomputing.co.uk/index.p ... 6&id=26556
I suppose it's hard to make a rule working in 100% of cases here. It's about making decisions in particular cases.
Speaking of my mods, I'm always ready to upload them here
I believe we had some discussion about it in the past but we decided nothing then.

Unless the graphics mod is by Harry S Price.
There seems to be no rhyme or reason to the classifications in ZXDB (or WoS.). I can see there will always be an element of judgement and subjectivity, but there should be some guidelines to avoid the worst of the current inconsistencies.
