+mizapf Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Have you tried WARGAME? I was able to read it on the first try, so this should be possible for you without problems, since the WAV file always plays in the same way. You can lower sound channel 2 to 0, but I think this is only relevant for listening to the data, not for the recognition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tried - the mono version I did didn't, but the stereo one did (it played it back slower than usual). Will do some more tests with some stereo files instead Cheers.

RenegadeG1 Posted June 7, 2015 Author Share Posted June 7, 2015 (edited) Ok, still not had much luck so far. What I've done though is upload the files I've ripped so far, incase anyone else has any luck. The following games: Wargame (good to test as we know this works). Santa & The Goblins Lionel & The Ladders (UK) Roady Toad Taxi Each wav has several versions : Original rip (just as it is). Cleaned up. Amp'd Up (Using the cleaned up wav, some compression & eq). Amp'd Up2 (Using the amp'd up wav & pushing it way into the 'red). Link (This will last for 2 weeks) : http://we.tl/szqErMRmP5 If anyone has any luck & can convert them to .dsk files, please upload them for everyone to enjoy Cheers.

+mizapf Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 I think the best bet would be for mono, 16 bit, 44100 Hz. These are the default settings for the cassette. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I managed to get myself a copy of this a few months ago, I have the copy with the "improved" cover, I think that it is one of the better tape release for the 4a-but lets face it, it's not up against much competition.

ti99iuc Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 yes i think it is a nice game adventure like you writing, and i was very surprised when I found out the amount of recognized words from the internal vocabulary and how to write commands. anyway if you have the Enanched Version of this game it could be very nice to have an hires scan of the cover and internal instructions so i will add to the download on this page please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But how do you run this program in MESS? It looks like a TI-BASIC program, but everything I try results in an out of memory error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ti99iuc Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 (edited) thank you for the feedback Fredrik in Classic99 the program start with "CALL FILES (0)" ... i do not working if in MESS is the same. On Real hardware it start on TI BASIC without PEB connected. Edited July 22, 2015 by ti99iuc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+mizapf Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 On Real hardware it start on TI BASIC without PEB connected. How do you get the program into the machine? Cassette tape? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ti99iuc Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 (edited) yes cassette tape, as you can see in the link. in the zip file there is also the .wav, the code in txt, and the fiad over the tidisk and the .dsk Edited July 22, 2015 by ti99iuc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+mizapf Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 @Fredrik: This is the way to go for MESS. In the archive there is a wav folder with the cassette file. You can mount it as a tape and do a OLD CS1. Before, remove the floppy controller from the box. Note that you have to pull down the slider for channel 1 (see menu "Slider controls"). For some unknown reason, the tape sound appears on both channels, with channel 1 shifted by some seconds. This has no effect for loading, since only channel 0 is read. Nevertheless, it failed to load for me; I got a NO DATA FOUND after 60 seconds. Although the recording sounds good, maybe it needs some processing by audacity or other tools.

ti99iuc Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 [...] .wav [...]it failed to load for me; I got a NO DATA FOUND after 60 seconds. Although the recording sounds good, maybe it needs some processing by audacity or other tools. the .wav file i the one that "CS1er" program create by a .dsk i tried it using my telephone connected using a cable to a real TI99 and it worked. i use Android as OS and an amplifier APP ... maybe with audacity could be sufficient to amplify the .wav but it could clipping the audio.

+mizapf Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Hmm ... interesting ... now it worked! Suggestion: Start MESS with the debugger window (-debug on command line or somewher ein QMC2) and open the memory dump of the VDP. Starting from address 0700 you can watch the cassette loading! I found that sometimes the TI console may lock up during cassette load. I wonder whether this is an emulation glitch or a bug in the console cassette routine. It ends up with "READING" but nothing happens after the cassette is done. In the debugger, you can see whether this bug occured or not: For some unknown reason, R13 loses the pointer to GROM but suddenly has a 045B inside. When this happens, the console locks up and you can stop the cassette. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenegadeG1 Posted July 22, 2015 Author Share Posted July 22, 2015 Works with Classic99 and the CALLFILES(0) statement first. Brings back memories Made a partial map so far - managed to get upstairs, but got stuck in the dragons lair! (Every way you go it 'Blasts flames at you'). I remember their being other objects to find, but so far there's only been pies... Has anyone found anything else yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenegadeG1 Posted July 24, 2015 Author Share Posted July 24, 2015 * Update * The command on Santa - SEA - this searches the current location. This will let you find other objects which don't show up on the screen. eg - Found a lamp on the starting screen. - So TAKMAG - Takes the magic lamp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thread? http://atariage.com/forums/topic/158724-raising-atlantis/?hl=%20raising%20%20atlantis Looking at the images on there, it is the same game. It's basically a sort of port from the speccy game - Scuba Dive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
