Re: Loading tape games from disk

Do you have a link to the latest sources for Novalight? Nope, the ZIP file with "sources" is somewhere on the forum... I wanted to carry on but it's put aside for now. Anyway, here's the end of the code, ROM 1.1 or 1.0 compatible. Actually it loads the program with TAP header like on Atmo...

Re: Loading tape games from disk

This version does not suffer from the "it does not all fit into memory", but I'm not quite sure how to do the "fake CLOAD" and then the "fake RUN" on a BASIC program. Maybe the Novalight source can help a bit there for the "fake RUN", since it does load (but ...

Re: Oric.org updates

At the moment I'm manily focusing on the transfers I've done, sometimes 15-18 years ago :D
I'd have months of work just for that!

Re: Oric.org updates

This afternoon, from original tapes:
- Oric Games Pack (Shards), added everything
- Multi Cload System (MGV), added complete scans and original tape transfer (cracked TAP or WAV file, since it was specific routines)
- Traitement 3D (Loriciels), added everything but the TAP file which was good.

Re: Which Oric character to use for a mural?

Zorgon's hero (or the Quadnog, why not!) is probably one of the most iconic, or ennemies from Xenon-1 (level 1, 2, or the Zorgons themselves from level 6). But I love DPTLQ and Zebbie too!
