Apple II floppy disk to PC image / help

[deadmeow]

I have a rare Apple II Hockey game, "International Hockey", by Artworx Software. The game is from 1987. I have never seen this disk image on the internet. I no longer have the cables and equipment to make a pc disk image. I am very ill, and will not be able to get on the computer anymore in the very near future.

 

If there is anyone out there who knows how, and has the necessary items to make a PC *.dsk disk image from an Apple II floppy, please contact me, and I will mail you the game. There is no copy protection, so there shouldn't be a problem. I also have one or two games I wrote in junior high school, that I would like to have on disk image, available on the internet for download.

 

If you can help, please send me a private message.

 

Thanks

Hi there,

 

Yep that has to be a rare one, I don't have it.

 

There are some guys on comp.sys.apple that do this sorta thing. Maybe post in there? I'm sure the would be very happy to help. I'm ALL for preservation of this stuff. I have the cable and software to xfer images but I'm not sure if I can go apple -> PC.

For unprotected disks all you should need is a copy of ADT and a cable to connect the AII to the PC.

 

I have an image of International Hockey and it says it's cracked, so that would tend to indicate that there is some protection mechanism on it.

You have an image or a Apple II disk of the game? I have a cracked Apple II disk version of the game, and I imagine the original version is copy protected. I am interested in getting it uploaded to the internet to help preserve it for Apple II fans out there, as well as some cheesey homemade games of mine from ages ago.

 

Until recently I had an Apple IIgs system, which I let go. I could have made an image very easily with that. I have recently been playing around with an Apple IIc I bought on Ebay, but I am barley able to get on the computer these days, and doubt I would be able to do the transfer myself in the coming days.

 

Back to International Hockey, it is the best Apple II hockey game out there. Its a lot of fun. Its a real nice 8 bit Apple II ware that came out during the Apple IIgs era. My and my friend Chuck used to have intense rivalries in Apple II sports games.
