Well guys that all my games- make of them what you will- all were written about 1985 - 1986.

Great to have saved them as TAP files- it certainly gives my kids an idea of what old games were like - can't see them dropping their Wii mind to play them- you really had to have been there- eh?!!

More games emailed to Mayhem and Jeff20 - got another Tape to send.

Managed to load all the games and then ReSave them onto a new Hi Quality Cassette -then created a TAP file of the new Tape- works a lot better now.

Will send the B-side shortly....

Hi guys- sorry, not posted for a few days- real life eh?!- kinda gets in the ways sometimes! I'm making some progress with my old games- managing to load them and save then to a new tape- will send on any TAP files I manage to create for you to look at them if you like. Who shall I send the TAP file...

Really appreciate you doing that for me- its great to see those games running again after all this time and I'm happy to share them with the community on here.

If I manage to get more TAP files - will I send them to Jeff-20 or Mayhem -or both?

Thanks again guys

Just notice that the cursor color on PACMAN is white too- so just type RUN when the tape counter stops and the loader will run.

I've come this far! - get back to me if you can't get them to run!

Hi- have you not managed to get it to work? I downloaded it- saved it to desktop- started up VICE Then in VICE i went into File> autostart tape/disk image- then click on either PACMAN or SCRAMBLE- this will load the loader - you'll need to type RUN and hit return (on scramble the cursor color is whi...

Just emailed you the TAP file.

It contains PACMAN and SCRAMBLE.

The loaders contain the instructions- get back to me if you have any questions.

I've also got some more original games I've created - I'll send them to you when I managed to load them and save them.

I don't see an option to save as a PRG or a D64 file- is it an option on VICE?

All I do with the .VSF file is load up VICE and click SNAPSHOT > Load Snapshot image.

Works fine on my 2PCs.

I just went into VICE and saved it as a snapshot- does it not work?

How do I make a .prg file?

PM sent for Jeff 20's email address to have the game hosted!


Fame at last!

Just about ready to share my first game written back in 1986 at the tender age of 15! - whats the best way to share the file?

What do you recommend?

What kind of cable would I need?

Sorry for all the questions!! I've come this far- really great to be getting results and saving all my old games from 25 years ago!!

Some not bad games - and some real turkeys too! -At least you'll get a laugh!

I've managed to save a few of my old games! :D I've created TAP files and then 'snapshotted' then through VICE. I've also managed to load a few into my old VIC20 and then used a Commodore 1541-II to save them to a floppy disks. Is there an easy way to transfer my old 5 1/4 floppies to my PC? -is the...
