Sam Coupe Emulator

ZXNet echo conference «zx.spectrum»

From Roman Petrov To All 9 December 1997


Hello! Dear All!

This means my achievements over Subj:

It means that with the help of Afrodit (remember, there is such a program for Speccy) I
copied Sam's disk again and it read perfectly (!) on the PC!
So I received a virtual Sam's disk. Everything starts from it just fine!
But it looks like nothing is written on it :( I wanted to unpack the toy
(toys on the Internet are in the form of PAK files - self-extracting archives),
downloaded (by the way, Samtoms was very glitchy - the file on the PC was 21 kilos, but on Sam
it turned out to be almost 40!), launched: “Insert destination disk”, I press any key,
the border blinks a little and... we hang...
First of all, I hope for Vsevolod Potapov’s reaction, since he has already
probably also downloaded Subj and maybe achieved something. Well, I really want to launch something! Mouzon from Etracker,
since I have Etracker unpacked! And it even starts!

PS Regarding throwing Subj into the echo, I’m waiting for the (co)moderator’s permission.

With respect, Roman aka Megus of Brain Wave corp.

... Or are you unforgiven too?

Hello! Dear Vsevolod!

At 03:37, Friday December 12 1997 it was such a thing that
Vsevolod Potapov scribbled a letter All:

I'm sorry, of course, but have you tried typing BOOT in BASIC?
It seems to help. Then you can do DIR or DIR 1
VP> (more precisely, pumped ones :) they don’t plow. :( such garbage. About the Insert
VP> destination disk - have you tried pushing a blank disk? (on F6 and so on).
All that remains is to get this very clean disk :-) Although you can destroy all the files from the utility
disk with Samtoms (although the SAMDOS2 file is not allowed - it will
stop loading).

VP> good for you :) but for me Would anyone help with aphrodite (does it work fine with 3.5
VP>?)
And I just rewrote it from a trash disk to a five. Maybe we should throw Aphrodite into the echo? IMHO, a quite good program for its time.

2All If there is anything better now, please tell me.

Hello! Dear Artem!

At 00:17, Friday December 12 1997 there was such a thing that
Artem Haritonov wrote a letter to Roman Petrov:

AH> Can you at least tell me the URL?
I’m actually already uploading Subj. As for the address - well, I don’t remember it: with the help of Infoseek I looked for Sam Coupe. If you really want to get into the emulsion, use XCoupe (an older version of the emulator, as I understand it, since there is a link to SimCoupe on the XCoupe page). And the software is at ftp.nvg.unit.no
lies (maybe somewhere else - not all links, and there were 119 of them, checked).
