 Trailblazer 16k

Hi,
I am converting Trailblazer (16k version) prg to wave using wavprg. I have problem to run that.

On C116 I got Out of memory (even though I downloaded 16k version)
On Plus 4 the same wave gives Syntax error in 12340

With the same options other games work flawlessly (I am using the same settings).

Any ideas why I cannot run Trailblazer on original machines?

Wow! You are one patient guy. I'd never have the nerve to wait that much for a programme to load. Have you ever considered using tape turbos? The homepage of YAPE has a description how to make .TAP files with turbo, and there surely are some programmes capable of turning a .TAP into .WAV. Here are two from a quick search: TAP2WAV and WinMTAP.

Indeed, the first thought after reading the thread has been:"Why in the world he's converting prgs to wavs, if there's the original tape in the same page?".
