game cannot even be begun
I managed (having bought the cassette) to make (by means of friends) the correct dump

Hi @goodboy Just tested the version on the crash tape, and seems that I'm unable to play the demo, is that the error you mention?
Thanks!

[goodboy]

yes, early the known version contains mistakes

[druellan]

yes, early the known version contains mistakes

But this is the version that was distributed back in the day, correct? Or is this something related to the preservation?

[goodboy]

the known version is digitized with mistakes
I made the correct TZX

Thanks Goodboy!

I believe we could add it to the database. It already contains some game images labeled as BUGFIX with corrected bugs and bug decrcription,
I suppose it's the case here.

[R-Tape]

Yes thanks goodboy.

We'll need to decide exactly where to put it - inserted into the Crash demo as a bugfix of the compilation, or with StDragon. I'll have a chat with the guys and we'll find a home for it.

Why mark it as a bugfixed version if the bugs aren't in the original release?

Yeah, just update the Side B of the magazine’s TZX with this working version of Saint Dragon. No need to draw attention to it.

yes, this correct decision

[R-Tape]

Okidoki, I've put it together to create this Side 1* (not B as stated above).

I can't get goodboy's file, nor the StDragon in the Side 1 above, to load in (my favourite) ZX-SPIN 0.666, but it works in Spectaculator.

Good enough?

*the final file will not have this name.

(not B as stated above)

Sorry, my bad.

Good enough?

Yup.
