(C) M.M.A aka UnBELIEVER / SPEED CO. / EXTREME
Every morning, waking up and brushing your teeth
AQUAFRESH'em you are going and go on
work (school, institution, etc.) may
be you did not go and just stay home .... the result will not
change! Anyway, during the day overtakes you, and it inhibits
the "miracle" of the human mind and scientific and technical
Progress - Professional Personal calculator on a processor
DENDIUM II
Such is the harsh reality of our days! Time for you SPECTRUM
virtually ostaetsya, AMIGA is as far as unpaid scholarships
over the past year, and PC here it is - take it and "enjoy".
But one day, when your good old SPECCY long will sold / thrown
on the shelf will come to a terrible and incurable disease -
nostalgia. And then, the desire to just sit down and play RIVER
RAID, LODE RUNNER, DIZZY or BOLDER DASH will full control over
your mind. What would then not be excruciatingly painful, I
invite you now to take care of its future.
----------------------------------------- The only salvation
yavlyaetsya CD-ROM archive _vsego_ of grandeur that was created
for SPECCY for nearly 16 years of its existence.
-----------------------------------------
Let me note at once that I was not the only one who zanimaetsya
perpetuating the memory of the ZX. At least 3-5 CD drives
sobirayutsya (Or have already collected) in other cities of our
country neobyatnoy. So for example, such operations are
conducted in the Kemerovo group PLAYGEAR and I know in
St. Petersburg. JUMEIRAH BEACH RESIDENCE keep the efforts in
this matter is virtually useless, since each has its own notion
of what program, how and in what format to include in such a
disk. Below I will present his vision in detail to tell what's
what, what Work is already the undertaken, and that remains to
be done. Let's start ......
At the present day there is just a sea of emulators
Spectrum at pC. They have differing requirements for the
hardware and the quality of emulation. There are also dozens of
storage formats spekovskih programs. Want to celebrate the most
important:
As of today, has not been written EMULATOR 100% repeats work
CORPORATE ZX or PENTAGON'a.
While some progress compared with 1913 is: (
On the CD will be available afterwards registered most of the
nature of emulators. At least one of them will be able to earn
on your i80x86. (100% gorantiyu can only GocStrah) For the most
advanced simulators and will be under mSWIN95 and WARP OS / 2.
Of all the existing formats of storage software was selected
standard. trd - a virtual image of the TR-DOS disk. This
format is easily converted into other, can be reset to "live"
CDs. In the end, no TR-DOS'a we still do not get along - most
programs are made over the past five years tight "zavyazanna"
on this system.
Of course not. Trd single man alive. For lovers will
. Z80,. SNA (something like MAGIC'a on emulators),. TAP (image
magnetic tapes) and, of course. VOC (real audio recorder
gruzyaschego program). In the last one I need Oubida own eyes
when I saw nearly burst into tears pC-owner'a watches as his
P233MMX with "ribbons" loaded ZYNAPS. However, the majority of
software will be precisely. Trd format.
There is a major problem - how to find a particular program
drive? No search engine is not as well. Trd he was in fact in
itself may include several softiny (on a normal CD). Next to
STREET FIGHTER'om can be written from adventyura LEVEL 9, and
file will then be called copy089.trd!!!!
Naturally, the CD will be recorded on a detailed directory,
which contains a description of each directory. Trd'shnika, but
it is not yavlyaetsya solution. I have chosen the following way
- the grouping of programs into discs by title, genre, producer
firms, etc. Thus, for example by opening the file batman's. Trd
Inside you will find: BATMAN1 + (by MAYHEM'98), BATMANS
COLLECTION (By SMASH SOFT) and the regular version BATMAN 3.
THE MOVIE is earn from 48KB.
Given this approach (extremely convenient to search for
my opinion!) each. trd will need zarhivirovat. Why? Because
like all the demo of the PROGRESS (BC, PARAXIZM, and GIFT) will
take on disk of all the sectors 500-600. More than half. Trd
file will be empty! 700KB record on CD, considering that the
They use only 150 - profligacy. And zaRARennom as everything
will fall into place. Specifically focusses on this your
attention, as a hard drive that he is going to be in Kemerovo
consist precisely of nezapakovannyh. trd which can be read
directly from the CD without the need for "dope." This approach
is very rewarding (640MB/700KB = 915 discs), but pick one you
need program will have a long time!
So zaRARennye. Trd'shniki keep a basic story
Spectrum, .Z80/.SNA/.TAP/.VOC supplement this story antics of
the bourgeoisie (theirs electronic newspapers, magazines,
etc.). And what more?? And one more thing: pictures of famous
SPECTRUM'ovskih deyteley, compilations and pictures from E'96
E'97,. MPG with a two-minute roller recorded with TV on passage
E'96, full-color posters to famous SPECTRUM'ovskim toys, mass
texts hardware and software, a detailed help in dealing with
rapid obycheniyu emulators, etc. etc. What skryvaetsya under
etc. and so on? Until I do not know myself, but there are lots
of cool stuff worthy of this disc. For example, as you so
funny, copy the screw a little I've found, and wINDOWS boot is
not shining clouds - on "Curb" will run tape'ovye strips, and
at the top of the screen PROGRAMM: WINDOWS'95 !!!!!
Most likely, after the recording of all his plans on the CD will
some free space, which will finish a lot more fun things, not
bezinteresnyh any advanced amateurs home computers. Namely:
Emulator SAM COUPE discs (LYRA III by ESI'94 !!!!), emulators
BK-0010/11, RADIO-RK, COMMODOR 64, ATARI, Game Consoles SEGA,
NINTENDO, SONY PLAYSTATION (!). All this of course with a set
of disk images / cartridges for work or play. Well, the best
hit - AMIGA Emulator 600, with demos and toys (R-TYPE 2 rulez!)
into the bargain! True to most emulators holds my comment about
100% emulation, but on the A600 is quite possible to look ....
especially if you have a P200-233MHZ. And the quartet is going
poorly: (
That we already have?
Approximately 90MB filtered. Trd files, each of which is
packaged RAR'om. In the bulk of the newspapers and magazines.
Several CDs with releases CODEMASTERS, batman's, a compilation
of demos at Last Hero of the Light Force, and MIRROR, toys
COOPER FEET'a, collection DIZZEY and still full of everything!
Accordingly, there is most of the required emulators, some
photos, and more. Work on the collection bin data is
continuously!
What do we have?
CD-ROM (gold) with huge amount of software for the Spectrum,
full set of emulators and related products, a mass of
historical information (txt, gfx, video, audio, www), all
necessary for about (reading) (see) (slushivaniya) of this
information itself and how bonus pack - bunch of emulators on
other platforms. And all this for your "dear" (!!!) pC.
What AMIGA?
There are no problems. As there is no qualitative and
emulators. Although if TITUS completes his creation, then
surely it will be support (or IMPORT). trd files. All other
information You can read / watch and AMIGA, the benefit of all
standard and dear -. jpg,. gif,. mov,. mpg,. voc,. txt,. rar!
All that exists on the AMIGA to emulate the Spectrum course
will also be recorded on a CD in a separate section.
And how much does it cost?
As I have already made a reservation, entry will occur on
pishushuh CD-ROM'ah the so-called "gold" discs. Given the price
"Blanks" and at least some some profit, I can say that today
(June month) price of 50 rubles new. More than likely, that at
the time of release discs become cheaper still .... Auditioned
option to order a small print run on the aluminum drive
(usually pirated CD), but it turned out that this thing is not
real - minimum circulation of not less than 1000 copies, and
even the matrix from which written disc is 2 "lemon." Although
if such an option was, the CD would be worth no more than 25
rubles to the postage!
When the disc will be released?
Deliveries are scheduled for the end of August, during or
FUNTOP'a after him. I hope that with the spread will help me
and MAGIC KAN0. In this case, already at FUNTOP'e everyone can
buy this wonderful product.
Where can I buy a disc?
If all goes according to plan, the living (still hot) discs you
can buy in Moscow in the company AMIGA DIVISION, or order by
mail from the capital of our homeland, or from my home in
Samara - who much closer!
And whether on a CD program to our tough group VASIY MEGASOFT?
I can not cover everything that a sea of software is written
to Fight ZX. By this, if you have something to offer (_svoi_
(!) Of or disc version), make sure you send them to me. Here
just take the disc, write in chronological order and send. If
this is not a demo made from the ZX-REVYu'shnyh effects or
PETRIS hyped up to 500 sectors, of course, your software will
go directly to a CD.
Most of all I'm interested in quality disc version of the toy
(cool pack, cool intro, firm ay-sound 'title screen), complete
collection of various electronic publications, software written
vypushenny or your team of all time, etc.
A special problem with newspapers. From the long-published
newspapers could be assembled only ON-LINE and ZX-NEWS (and
then 39 rooms not!). In other compilations NICRON, MAXIMUM,
LPRINT, CWEEK, MOVE, BODY, R.I.P. etc. gape big or small gaps.
And by part numbers you want there is not only my friends in
other cities, but also on known INET'ovskih sites.
So I ask all who are interested in a CD of his vsklyuchenii
software to write to me and write as soon as possible.
