|  New Emulator Released! | | Posted by Csabo on 2005-07-24 |
| no$c64 is here! Hmm, that sound like C64 stuff, so why would we be interested? Well, the author, Matrin Korth has actually added C16/Plus4 emulation into it as well. The name might also imply that the emu does not handle strings. This is not the case, it refers to no (real-world) dollars, as in free (which is nothing new to our community, as we've always been lucky enough to have our share of freeware emus). Quickstart guide for the impatient: download the Windows version and run the EXE. Press F11, select Plus/4 in the CBM Version, click OK, then press F9. Voila, the ever so familiar screen is up and running. While the emulation is not too accurate just yet, the emu itself seems to have huge amounts of debugging functions. It also appears to be closed source, but the authors site has lots of valueable docs on it. We'll be very interested in seeing how far this new project will go. |

| | Mr. Chip and The Mad | | Posted by Csabo on 2005-07-24 |
| Umm... What does Mr. Chip and The Mad have in common? Not much, they just got new stuff added in the same news item. Right. Now that we've cleared that one up, we're proud to present three original Tape Images of these games: Formula 1 Simulator, Olympic Skier, and Pacmania. We've had TAPs of these before, but the new ones courtesy of Rüdiger have the original loading screens (and no turbo). Now onto the second half: did you ever wonder what the author of such brilliant games as Digital Ball or The Invincible looked like? Rachy took some photos at fYaNICA #12 (it's an Amiga party apparently), and snapped a shot of The Mad himself. Cool stuff, enjoy! |

| | Big Update! | | Posted by Csabo on 2005-07-04 |
 Who's ready for a big update? (cue crickets chirping) Anywho, we've got some very nice new stuff for you. Rüdiger finally got around to create some TAP files. We've had the covers for these release for a long time, now we can all see what the actual programs are. 4 new CSJ releases have been added: Datei C16, Text C16, Utility C16 and Vokabel C16. (All german language C16 programs.) Ulysses777 also prepared some downloadables. We have the Bombjack II TAP image. Next up is one of the Mysterious Adventures: Perseus and Andromeda, full size cover scan and TAP image. Finally a most interesting release: Snooker & Pool from Gremlin Graphics. I can hear you all jumping up and shouting: "What? Haven't played that one! Did the year 2005 really bring us a new previously unseen sports simulation?" Well, don't get too excited. If you take a look, no doubt you'll find an uncanny resemblance to another snooker package (cough Classic Snooker cough). Well, that's it this time. Thanks guys for the new stuff, enjoy! |
