cbmeeks #27 Posted February 26, 2019 I got mine the other day. Looks beautiful! I love supporting fan projects like this. I have a disk controller on the way but no floppy drive. I'm going to see about getting a floppy drive over the next few weeks (hopefully). In the meantime, could I get a copy of for my FG99? Thanks I'll shoot it to you in a PM, the full disk image. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You'd need a SD Floppy Emulator like the Lotharek drive I have Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cbmeeks #29 Posted February 26, 2019 Is that similar to a GoTek? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Opry99er #31 Posted February 26, 2019 Or a nanoPEB. Or a CF7+. I can email you the disk image today. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cbmeeks #33 Posted February 26, 2019 Got it. I think I will run the disk image in an emulator. But I'm still on the lookout for a real floppy drive. I like to experience the real deal. BTW, this is literally the first TI-99/4A software I have ever owned on a floppy disk! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Opry99er #34 Posted February 26, 2019 Glad you've got a way to run it, even if it is emulation. By the way, there were a couple delays on the last shipments of these, but the last of the domestic purchases are scheduled to arrive by Thursday. On Friday, I will post the digital copy of the disk image here so everyone can download and enjoy. If you download it, I ask only that you run it on real hardware at least once. Preferably more than once. I spoke with Gregg a week ago or so, and he was very happy that his programs were getting out there to folks. If there is a desire for it, I will re-release "The Hunt for Bigfoot: An EKMEL Adventure" with full packaging--and I may even make some visual upgrades to the program itself. With Fish Tank, I left the programs just the way they were--adding only an escape feature to return to the title screen. I think Bigfoot might be well served with a bit of a visual refresh and some minor upgrades with sound, colors, etc. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Opry99er #36 Posted February 26, 2019 Awesome. Just so you all know, the plans for Bigfoot include a fairly heavy duty packaging effort... I have some really cool plans for this one, but it is going to take a bunch of work to do it the way I want to-- That said, I likely won't be able to do $9.00 on Bigfoot if it gets done. Glad everyone is enjoying. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Ksarul #37 Posted March 1, 2019 I received the Fish Tank disks today--and when you do Bigfoot, you know I'll need two of them. . .Turtles has gone collector on me and wants one of everything. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
