Yes, but actually it should work on more programs using tape (so not only
Metal Gear, but it was tested with it) as long as they are using the
BIOS-calls and (I didn't test this yet) even using normal Basic programs.
After testing it, I will put online so you can all benefit from this little
tool. This version is for TurboR only and uses its S-RAM. I programmed in
such a way it could be adapted to another medium in little time and I'm
even planning to do something like this for MSX2 and MSX2+. I'm running
into one minor problem, but it should be overcome. If I can't get it, I
will post it to get see if any of you know a way, but I want to find out
myself first.
