when you say quite the wrong speed you mean that most of these at 2-3 frames a second were the right speed?
http://www.worldofspectrum.org/infoseek.cgi?regexp=^Vector+Graphics$&phrase&loadpics=1 this list cant include only 48 &16 k stuff but woudl be nice is it terribly easy to do you cant do it with that emulator explosion one velesoft posted with the only working chunky version of f16 that doesnt reload teh mission briefing after a mission - pity On 25 October 2011 13:18, Thomas Harte <[email protected]> wrote: > I think I'm right to say that external RAM can be paged into the top > 32kb of address space.
