Thanks [mention]Ralf[/mention], the loading screen seems incorrectly coded as a running screen (You can see the correct one at the bottom of the page). I'm sure the main main [mention]R-Tape[/mention] can update his spreadsheet with the next update.Ralf wrote: ↑Tue Jun 26, 2018 8:58 pm Great stuff!

Re: Site Updates
Ta.
It's a double mistake. Firstly I seem to have labelled it as a run screen, secondly I thought saving as .mlt would preserve the shimmering effect (it doesn't).
Apart from that - perfect!
(On the list)

Did you only mean the name of the file should be adjusted? (marked as run when it should be load*)
Or did you also mean the image looks broken?
All other formats are worse IMO - .gif and .scr have missing letters entirely due to the flickering effect. I suppose an animated .gif would do it, but I don't know if that's an option or if it's even worth it.

Re: Site Updates
Hi, thank you for the report. It looks like text files have the right icon but I being referred to as Tape Image files. We will take a look. I don't believe this is linked to the latest update.

Re: Site Updates
Yes it is!
This error will be fixed in the next ZXDB update. Sorry!
Re: Site Updates
Nice one fellas. I'd like to doubly thank MykeP for his graft on CGC 2014. A lot of screenshots, files and corrections* there.
By the way, Boum is doubly screwy - it's listed as being part of a compilation with Retrosouls' Sector.
*some of which will follow next time.

Re: Site Updates
Latest update applied. Thanks [mention]Einar Saukas[/mention] and [mention]pavero[/mention]. It also seems to have fixed the issues mentioned above.
Re: Site Updates
We are testing the moving of some files on the site. If you come across any 'file not found' type errors please could you let us know here? Thanks very much.
I'm off out now to enjoy the last of the British summer ( although apparently it's officially autumn).

Search(?) error
Some little website error to report
I'm searching for "New York Warriors". Yes, I know the game is nothing special but I'm not about it
I get error : Warning: getimagesize(): Filename cannot be empty in /var/www/html/functions.php on line 216

Re: Site Updates
Hi Peter! Sorry, I just realized that the problem was that I had the zoom of Google Chrome at 90% so the characrters in the screenshots looked odd.
False alarm
Re: Site Updates
No worries. As I age I have to increase the zoom, rather than decrease it!
Re: Site Updates
Thanks for your hard work at maintaining a website that is up to date and accurate. Nice to see Ramsbottom Smith added... No sign of Behind Closed Doors 7? Hopefully, next time then.
