Hello,

After weeks of head banging and scratching on people saying that Speccyal'K v0.6 is a good emulator i decided to give it one last chance. I have finally got the bugger working, and yes it is a very good emulator. I have now gone back on my word after i infamously dissmissed the emulator in another thread! :D It is a very good emulator, so good infact that the other two are now deleted. If anyone can't get it working then make sure that if the game/file is for 48k machines only, then run the emulator in 48k mode, that's where i went wrong! And if the game/file is for 128k, then run 128k mode! :) I hope the emulator is still being developed, as it could be a little user friendly (don't have to switch between 48k and 128k modes) to be honest. But ZX Spectrum emulation is heading in the right direction.

Regards,
 
Your dreams may soon become reality because it appears that I have bought a chatboard :)

But before I add support for it, I'd like to finish the DC port (going very well, the options screen and the file browser are already working) ...

tyrrell... he design your mind...

smart man...

So glad to hear youre doing a port to the DC! It really needs a decent Spectrum emulator! :D Itll have the same excellent features I assume? If so itll be a marked improvement on DreamSpec, ZX-ish Spectrum (which I use) and Spectrum 128k.

If you want any artwork done for it - let me know! Id be happy to help. :)

..any chance of TZX support or should we keep using TZX/TAP converters?
 
not to sound like a noob but what is speccyal'k again? i read about it in another site but forgot. (curse my slow brain!)
 
No, sorry, no chance for a TZX support...
If only there was someone to help me implement this file format ;)
The fact is that I have very limited free time to work on the port and that it would require a tremendous amount of time to understand the TZX inner workings and to add support for it ...
