But do you? I formerly created all those TAP files by conversion from a DSK. So.... :-)

Subject: NVG DSKification - complete...
... well, as much as I can do for the moment.
The main problems are that of corrupt PAK archives and being unable to extract 'Library' LIB/LCB files due to an error in the decompression routine (Mat even mentions it in the README of the utilities disc that it is on!)
There is a LIB30b file in the /utils/ directory which may or may not fix this, but it's stored as an LCB file itself so I can't actually unpack it to see :-)
So, Stuff that is missing from NVG /pub/sam-coupe/ that I need copies of in preferably DSK format but SAD/TD0 will be fine:
/demos/AJ inc/AJDISC1.zip - had to remove New Order loading screen to remove MaxiDOS
/demos/AJ inc/AJDISC7.zip - had to remove slideshow screen to remove MaxiDOS
/demos/misc/swiss.zip - cannot unpack
/games/craft.tap - TAP format, cannot load /games/color.zip - cannot unpack with Library, file inside is COLORIS.LCB
/graphics/slideshow/net_23.TDO - cannot read TDO file
/misc/sam/treaty.arc - cannot unpack
/music/e-tracker-modules/MAJMODS1.zip - cannot unpack
/music/e-tracker-modules/MAJMODS2.zip - cannot unpack
/music/etrackdem.zip - cannot unpack - could be Out Of Colour (which I have) as that was a demo for Etracker, or it could be a demo of the prog itself
/music/samples/qltheme.zip - cannot unpack/determine pack type
/utils/bcdsk10.bas - text file of BASIC program /utils/disk/old/lib30a.zip - cannot unpack with Library /utils/disk/lib30b.zip - cannot unpack with Library
/utils/misc/commix.zip - cannot unpack with Library, but maybe the same as COMMIX20.TDO
/utils/misc/Prntfx.zip - cannot unpack
/utils/misc/SAM81.zip - ZX81Emulator - BASIC Broken in file
/utils/misc/TIFF.zip - cannot unpack with Library
So, if you have a disk that looks like any of these, fire up http://www.simonowen.com/sam/samdisk/ , dump it out and then let me know where I can grab it from or email me off-list and I'll arrange something rather than make people send me 20 copies of Craft via mail :-)
If these are lost then it would be a shame but if it can't be helped then so be it, I'll give it a week to see what we can find and then I will release the 380-odd disc images.
Personally I think they should go back to NVG to replace the PAK's (Mmm, nice 111Mb upload) so Frode do you want to contact me off-list about how we want to play this.
Also I think they should go to samcoupe.org so Gavin can you also give me a shout off-list for the same reason.
Best get back to the wife now - I think she's forgotton what I look like these past few days :-)
Dan.
