Ok here is the finished game, ocr'd/corrected by me and insanely bug tested/corrected by Lee. You will need beebem v4.03 from http://www.mkw.me.uk/beebem/ to run this properly as it has the acorn speech system implemented and due to licensing issues its missing from the latest version. Otherwise jus...

36 at once? I struggle with just one ocr and thats with nearly acurate conversions, why on earth would you do 36 at once! Lol

Thanks to Lee above we already have the magazine (and whoever he got it from of course) and it will also be on flax cottage soon possibly, I will post the listing here when i've ocr'd it too. I bet it t will still need loads of bugs sorting out... Steve Lucas wasn't known for his rigorous play testi...

Hi Anthony, You are quite right, it was games computing december 1984 t.jpg 1.jpg 2.jpg I had the same mag back in the day and typed it in to find alas the electron didn't have a hope of playing a mode 7 game I wasn't clever enough to convert it to run back then so I gave up but here we are some 34 ...

I posted this 3 month before you joined so that would have been difficult lol but welcome to you too tricky

Not to worry its great that you can figure stuff out with basic, everytime i get rid of a typo bug another one is right behind it

I've reposted them yet again, seems to be working now yay

MartinB there we're errors in my typing , and probably still are,1490 DEFPROCmonster had a capital R on the end. line 300 should have then 320 on the end and thats where the too many FORs happened, i'm getting there though

Lee all typed in :shock: , found some more errors since posting so edited and replaced files arkyron.ssd To save a bit of time ive included both programs as text files, note i've altered the loader as it had a PAGE=&E00 command that balls'd it up PROGRAM 1.txt PROGRAM 2.txt \:D/ debugging listings i...

Email and pictures received , excellent i'll type it in now with excessive enthusiasm just like I did on christmas day 1985 although somewhat faster than 10 characters per minute

Hope it runs this time

Lee you are a true gent thankyou

Andy

No problem as long as you can get it all in lol pm sent

7 years late, but I have found the Monster of Arkyron. OMG :shock: wow Lee thats absolutely amazing, I thought id imagined it as a child after all these years. Any chance you can do a high res scan of the page/s and ill type it in and see how cassette 50 it is :lol: Your a star mate im well chuffed...

Id like one Dave with a case and manual too if possible please.
Thanks
Andrew

Only a quick knock up and test as im trying to paint a car while ive got the daylight and warmth

Yes confirmed working in both machines and no hangs although ive no time to soak test it until tonight. Dave H this has made it uneccessary to send my board as its working fine with the gal programmed with this new jed file but everything else iasked you about id still like please. Ken Lowe thanks a...

Dave would you mind if i post you my boards and you program my two gals and test them, i can rule out the issue 4 board being the problem if it works then, happy to pay labour and time costs thanks. Has anyone got their old pal they can send me to replace my lost one otherwise this board is useless ...

Dave if Ken has no luck can you do me two please or I can send you a couple to do for me i'll send some doritos. I could also test them before sending - Or i could just send you a working Turbo board . . . ? Dave H :D Dave will that be with a GAL in it or PAL? How much? Can you believe that royal s...

Right, got the board finished and all installed exactly the same as the other machine following Daniel's great instructions annnnnnnnnnnnd It's exactly the same as the other one, works fine with the pal and only works at normal speed with the switch the opposite way otherwise it just hangs. So a bag...

Sods law has kicked in and its another issue 4, I havent had time to finish the board off yet as i've been busy.

Dave the board is mine and it works fine with its original pal, i'm just trying to turn the heating down with a gal.

Still getting no joy with this, i've bought myself a tl866a programmer now and even a tl866II plus as well and still same results With the switch in the turbo position (with the pal in) the elk works as normal with the gal in, switched the other way the machine hangs. So it can only be one of three ...

As Ken says he's sent me 2 GAL's twice... The FIRST pair, when the switch is in the turbo position with the PAL in, with the GAL in the machine just runs as if the turbo wasn't even there. When the switch is in the normal position with the PAL in, with the GAL in the machine just hangs ctrl+break do...

They had to be taking the p155 when they did that surely, what good will that do? The entire case is plastic not only that the original psu inside the elk, which is right next to the drive, isn't in use when the plus 3 is attached either, that some strange wtf'ness right there.

As an alternative you can hack a modern double sided drive to replace the single side drive and make it fit blue peter style I just run it from the 19v original psu and its been fine in all the years ive had it although sometimes have to ctrl/break it when i first turn it on 34454243_101575520231672...

I'm in worksop notts kenlowe cheers =D> i'll paypal you some readies sending you a pm EDIT ~ I've just discovered that my monitor cable is faulty as the screen went blue and flickered when jiggling it about, i've just swapped it for another cable and the screen is rock solid again #-o bloody mysteri...

Can't tell you anything about it i'm afraid other than the pal chip is PAL16L8ACN, this is another one i've got, the other is fitted

Think I spoke too soon, i've picked it up this weekend and after about 3 minutes continuous use the picture is wobbling like mad. I tried it the next day when it had obviously cooled down and it was ok again then after approx 3 minutes picture gone to sh!t so looks like I need one of those gals, is ...

Bit late to this party unfortunately but after 5 years of buying a couple of these turbo boards from arcadian, i've finally got round to fitting one and thanks to daniel's instructions its worked first time =D> Excellent simple instructions, though daniel I did pm you about fitting it properly then ...

Well that was a waste of £134, not only can you download all the manuals for free, there's virtually nothing inside it that's helpful

The seller must be doing cartwheels, i'd be doing reprints

:lol: Now that did make me laugh :mrgreen: All my acorn bits n bobs have been packed away for at least 6 years until I recently got everything out again and have returned to my elk and upurs to attempt to make a master welcome disk and instantly binned that idea and wasted an entire evening upursing...

That's what i thought Mark, ah well that's not going to happen is it seeing as our serial upursist inventor is such a fan of adfs lol
