Not yet, but they're on the list. Same for [mention]spider[/mention]'s MM/JSW stuff. Actually, I'm after some help on this one, I'll post later on that.

IS anyone willing to collate these? Information on how to do so is here

Posted: **Wed Jun 05, 2019 2:41 am**

Yeah, I could probably do it. Would you want the .wavs as well (with the introductory voice)?

Posted: **Wed Jun 05, 2019 6:56 am**

Good man!

If possible could you convert anything that will work as a tape image to TZX, but include everything pleez.

Corrections are happening separately in batches
Also: I (R-Tape) only have time to collate brand new software, and Dru is working on corrections, so if anyone wants to help collate older MIA then please volunteer. Things that need looking at:
-[mention]Frankie[/mention] 's many MIA and uMIA mentioned here (I made a start but there is more still to do).
-[mention]wallyweek[/mention]'s MIA mentioned in the preservation forum
-These uMIA Spanish games.
Info on how to collate stuff here. It takes a while to get everything to the lofty standards required by ZXDB, but it's worth it and the help is appreciated

Apologies: some demos posted by @g0blinish, still to do.

Posted: **Mon Jun 17, 2019 9:27 pm**

Ta Peter.

Also - I forgot to mention the bugfixed .scl and .trd for Al's Double Bill have been added.

Also 2 - I couldn't get Battle City, Boom and Popcorn to work, so they have no screenshots. If anyone is more familiar with Trd and can provide some then please do.

Didn't. It's included it as part of the original Magical Tower. I assumed it was the same ID. Do you think they should be different?
