Re: Game Request: Diggers

WRT audio, this is just an unfounded suspicion, but have you checked that the audio Diggers was writing into the Arc buffers (from which ADFFS subsequently copied it) is actually non-corrupt in the first place? Diggers uses the Richard Joseph music player, which has almost never been implemented cor...

Didn't you just mention you had an LDR interpreter? It'd be ridiculously slow, but...

Re: YouTube videos

I'm a big fan of the World of Longplays YouTube channel, and I've always thought it'd be good to get some RISC OS games up on there. I'd do it myself for a few games if I knew how to record video from a RiscPC! I suspect the format would require some form of tool-assistance to be implemented, though...

Re: Game files and formats

Whoops, I forgot this forum existed.

Anyway, I did actually write a patch to remove the copy protection from Magic Pockets, if you're still having trouble getting that one working. I haven't tested the patch on pre-RiscPC machines, but I can't think of any reason why it wouldn't work.

Re: Site maintenance

Is this a "figuring out why the hell the archives keep self-destructing" kind of maintenance?

Re: ADFFS 2.31 beta

Glad (and surprised) I was able to be of some help. Wish I'd remembered about the ADFS_Retries call though! EDIT: Every file was corrupt - how this hasn't been spotted until now I don't know. I've reuploaded all of them, so if you've previously downloaded any, I'd advise redownloading them. I'm curi...

Re: ADFFS 2.30 beta

Whist resolving the issues with TrackerMod on the Pi, I noticed that if Magic Pockets is left to play the titles, it eventually goes into demo mode and works. If you try to start a game however, it crashes on the level selection. That's good news, as it means the issue is either R14 corruption, or ...

Re: QTM v1.44 development version

Offset &7e0: TXPx The Xperience x channels, 62 instruments in Archimedes LOG format, VBLANK mode (Fxx is speed even when >= 32) Do you have example .mods in all the formats you list above? I'd love to add these to QTM where possible, but finding of the obscure format mods to test with QTM is a ...
