Spectrum Computing

Amazing achievement in BASIC!!! Great little game. At first I automatically assumed it was a machine code game, then I read further.

I was wondering if anyone would pick up on that. I only realized my mistake a while after posting it and the game had moved on.

Could it be Booty?

Well Done!! That was quick...your turn.

Here's the entire screen, but only after blacking out some random attributes with a BASIC program.



If it helps, here's the BASIC program:

Sorry - nope to the last two questions.

Clue time.

It's not the Swarm and it's also not Rygar.

Clue coming later in the morning.

Nope.

Where's this one from:

I've been playing this game lately. Bomb jack?

It stated that the word can appear on the screen as long as you can also see the graphic on the screen.

I'm loving the way that RVM can create the SD Card image for you and copy over all the required files. Then you can explore the virtual SD card (within the emulator) and just drag and drop game files onto the virtual card. This is like the best Christmas present ever! @cmal, I set-up a ZXUno v4.2 a...

I’m in favor of keeping the rule, otherwise it’s too easy and could result in an infinite loop.

Thanks @R-Tape

Does anyone know how you access the firmware vault so you can import a valid BIOS for MSX? https://i.ibb.co/82hNyYP/Screenshot-2022-12-31-180647.png Thanks PS - @Lee Bee its @jcgamestoy only by the look of it. https://i.ibb.co/1vcs2mY/Screenshot-2022-12-31-180647.png Here's how: 1.

I did notice some glitchy behavior with the ZX Uno v4.2 machine. While playing Bomb Jack I noticed that every 30 seconds or so, the emulation pauses for about half a second. I tried creating a new ZX Uno machine and saw the same thing happen. This short BASIC program demonstrates the pause: 10 BORDE...

Happy New Year to All !! Happy Speccying!

I particularly love the authentic graphical effects - as a CRT lover, that's something I've always been passionate about and tried to push for in emulation. Agreed - this is an excellent emulator and one of my favorites. The old-school look and feel is an excellent touch and very unique. A lot of n...

Thanks @jcgamestoy for correcting me. I'm not sure why I typed home button instead of home key.

I tried Windows x64 Version: Starting a 48k Speccy works. But starting the "+3e (DIVMMC)" Spectrum quits RVM 2.1 without any error-message. I just gave this a try and it worked for me. For reference here are the steps I did. I don't use the +3E much so let me know if I'm skipping anything...

I never knew what I was doing in The Fourth Protocol. I should give it another go sometime.
Elite also got me stumped.

Wow! Thanks for all of these @pavero . This must have taken a huge amount of time. Many Thanks!
