MrGonker Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Of all the cassette games released in the UK for the Ti I really only ever got games by intrigue or Lantern, probably due to the large boxes and great covers(Atlantis being my favourite ). Does anyone have a complete list of all the games released by these companies? Also I am searching for intrigue pentathlon and snout of spout. Are there any DSK images or listings of these games? I remember seeing a review for these 2 games in a UK mag like Home computing weekly or some mag like that, snout of spout got 4/5 and pentathlon got 3/5 or 2/5 I think. Have been looking for these on tapes for years but never got them. As anyone ever played these games? Also was there a sequel to Lionel and the ladders? Something like Lionel in space? Not really sure. I did once get a booklet from intrigue sent with a game I got on mail order and in that book it showed intrigue pentathlon for Ti basic as well as the extended basic version. I actually sent off for the Ti basic version but had the cheque returned with a note saying that the basic version of pentathlon would not be released. This was around 1985 I think. The last game I got from intrigue was Panic on the Ti-Tanic in 1985 game number G21, was there 21 intrigue games? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrGonker Posted July 30, 2015 Author Share Posted July 30, 2015 I will gladly scan the game tape and instructions for you. As for dumping it, I have no idea how to do this. The game loads in the same way as Atlantis and auto runs when loaded. I have read somewhere on here about recording games into wav format on pc but I still don't know how to do that. If you or anyone can give me a guide of how I can do this I will. I have an old cassette player and the Ti leads for it, so how do I connect it to the pc and what programs will I need to copy it as a wav file? If I manage to do this I also have beneath the stars you could do as well. I did however break into beneath the stars and took pictures of the game code with the idea of typing it in to win994a and saving it as a dsk or tape image. Cheers for any help.

Imperious Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I'd suggest trying an old cassette You don't care about much first, old cassette decks can have a tendency to eat tapes if the idler wheel or pinch roller is slipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opry99er Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I had a TI tape in a Tronics box that said "Ferret Run" on it--hand written label... First attempt at transferring a tape... It got et. Since then, I always use a tester tape before doing anything. Who knows... Might not have even been a game... Or it might have been the greatest homebrew of all time. Now we will never know.
