Arma's tapes collection
Anyone knows where the famous Arma site (tapes collection) can be found now?

Re: Arma's tapes collection
Thank you so much. I had this link before, but the collection eventually migrated to another site, which in turn was shut down, and I had forgot the previous one

Re: Arma's tapes collection
I noticed on the Armas Archive that any downloads for the Letter "L" are still linked to the old non-working website.
You can figure out the URL's though that do work by looking at the other webpage links for the other letters I've found, and it enabled me to download everything that was for the Letter "L" after I figured it out.
I would suspect that it's only a certain amount of time before this archive is completely gone.

Re: Arma's tapes collection
Is there a way to fully preserve it for posterity?

Re: Arma's tapes collection
Unfortunately the link I gave no longer works, so it's great to hear that it's been archived. It was such a great site.

Re: Arma's tapes collection
Yes, The old Arma's .tap archive has been fully archived. I am currently building an all-new VIC-20 .tap archive and I am currently accepting any .tap files collections donations...so Please put the word out there. Any/All donations will be added to the new .tap archive being built including the full old Arma's archive as well which will be integrated in.
Any .tap files collection donations or weblinks to any known .tap files collections for the new archive can be sent to: nefaurora@aol.com.
This is an ongoing project, and I have a goal to finish it by the end of 2024 to make it fully available to everyone interested. Any/All credits will be given for any useful .tap weblink leads, or .tap files donations for the VIC-20.
Regards,
Tony K.

Re: Arma's tapes collection
I am gradually downloading it from the Wayback Machine link (I am on S now), giving the files modern long filenames and generally trying to tidy things up a bit. Once I am done I will recreate the missing screenshots and hopefully find the missing cassette inlays somewhere else. Once I am done with that I can provide a link to download the whole set. I think it's too big to just upload here (61MB so far)
