Help with permissions
Can anyone with connections help with permissions for any of these games?
Astroblaster. Matt Jackson. Who the hell is this mysterious genius, and can we host this game? Where did it first spring from?
Mage Rage. I put together a version of Jon's game that includes Andy Green's loading screen (I haven't tested it to completion). Can we host his game, and can we host the version I put together?
Time Blaster. Marc Incely has shared it on his own site. Can we have it here?

Re: Help with permissions
I'll be working on an update this week. Just giving this a quick bump in case anyone is able to contact any of the above authors.

Re: Help with permissions
Ta Denis, but I'm not on Facebook so I can't read that. Does it have info about permissions? Or if Matt Jackson is in that group could they ask him if we can host the game at SC (or even better: at all free sites that use ZXDB)?DenisGrachev wrote: ↑Mon Nov 11, 2019 3:29 pm I've seen his post at facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/z80asm/ ... 889807607/
Re: Help with permissions
I've added a pointer from the facebook post to this thread.
Re: Help with permissions
[mention]R-Tape[/mention] Matt has replied that he is fine with it:
Matt Jackson Yep! Fine with that!
Re: Help with permissions
You beauty!
Thanks a lot Stefan.
Thanks Matt (you're a genius).
Hopefully I caught it in time for the next update.
Re: Help with permissions
Can anyone help with permission status of these text adventures? (even if it's a "non/no")
The Queen's Footsteps
Two Days to the Race
Rescate 2019 (Primera Parte)
Una Luz en la Nieve
The last two are still commercial, but maybe the author can bear us in mind in the longer term?

Re: Help with permissions
Just contacted Sequentiasoft (Una Luz en la Nieve and others).
Let's hope it will be successful!

Re: Help with permissions
Also contacted the author of Rescate, I still don't have a direct answer but in the meantime I'm going to add the website to his profile on the ZXDB.

Re: Help with permissions
Davide email can be found on his website. I can ping him if no one did this already
Re: Help with permissions
Cheers. I didn't see that. I'll email him.
EDITED - sh*te joke removed
Re: Help with permissions
Hello! I'm Davide Bucci and I wrote both games. For me it's perfectly OK if you upload them on a database!
Please play them, enjoy them, share them with your friends as much as you like!

Re: Help with permissions
The guys from sequentiasoft just answered. They were very kind and polite. They thanked us for the web, and they'll send me the TAP files as well as the online permission. Really cool guys!
They want SC to include certain info as they currently sell phisical copies and they are also a company that made filming advertising.
In 'authors' section, they would like to include something like this: (for example, in El Mosquetero de la Reina)
Official physical copies (tapes) available upon request > www.sequentiasoft.wordpress.com
Official trailer >

I've just re-sent this email to SC. I'll do the same when I got the email with the TAPs and permission.

Re: Help with permissions
I thought I'd asked too soon after release, so this is excellent news. Thanks Juan and SequentiaSoft!Juan F. Ramirez wrote: ↑Wed Mar 04, 2020 1:05 pm The guys from sequentiasoft just answered.

About the message, for some publishers we have a special section in 'main file downloads'. See this Zenobi entry as an example. So that's where the message will appear.
So, should the message be:
Or might I suggest:"Official physical copies (tapes) available upon request > www.sequentiasoft.wordpress.com"
Spectrum Computing is grateful to Sequentia Soft for giving us permission to make these files available for download. Official downloads and cassettes are available from https://sequentia-soft.itch.io/

Re: Help with permissions
The second option seems better (but with the wordpress link as they told me)
And the youtube link might be included in case the game has it.
This was an old topic discussed some time ago: including promo or ad videos of games.

Re: Help with permissions
Ah! Perfect. When I contacted the author asking for screencaps, he commented something similar, but I decided to hold that change from the current ZXDB release, so this is a timely update.R-Tape wrote: ↑Wed Mar 04, 2020 1:20 pmSpectrum Computing is grateful to Sequentia Soft for giving us permission to make these files available for download.

Re: Help with permissions
Did this ever happen? I can't see any downloads or the requested comment against entries for Sequentia Soft.
Re: Help with permissions
I can't remember what happened here. Will check and sort for the next update. Ta for the nudge.
