 ;) Hi boys and hope girls,  :( i   wanted to point out the problems with new games released for amstrad   "Cheril of the Bosque, Lala Prologue, Sir Ababol" format files. Cdt do   not work in real Amstrad CPC, I tried to start it but the games does not   load, reported to fix the problem.
If you are or will be advised when fixed, thanks.

Hi,

I'm the author of the tape turbo loader of these games and i will be grateful to fix your loading problems  :)

I know that the loading speed that i'm using (2500 bauds), it's a few higher that the firmware speed write 1 (2000 bauds), but i have received successful loading reports from real tapes, mp3 players, cd players and direct sound from the audio card... even speeds of 4000 bauds in digital medias how the last three.

What media has you used to load the games???

And what program has you used to generate the audio signal??? A lot of programs produce an audio signal too perfect and it's needeed to equalize it... but i always have get great results with TAPE2WAV (you can find the last version here).

Of course, if you need more help, send me a private message and if it's needed i could make more slower tapes for you  ;)

Btw, I have failed loading them in WinCPC, but this might be a problem with emulation, of course.

 :) thank you at alls for respond to research of help, explain the problem.
I use TZX2WAV for convert the .cdt to WAV.
Use VLC PLAYER for play the wav files and put in the real TAPE, i haven't never problems, but with these games  :( yes.
I have also tried the image file on CPCE emulator (v1.90) and have the same problem.
Have download CPCE V.1.94 and the image works?
" Ah on CPCE V.1.94 GAUNTLET 2 don't work anymore"

When i have used VLC PLAYER for play the file.wav, i have also low the speed, but nothing on real my cpc don't work.
Excuse me, for my poor ENGLISH hope i can give you an help.  :-\

Hi again, DARKGATE  ;)

Well, precisely the last versions of CPCE make various fixes to the tape emulation  :D and don't worry about the english, i'm spanish  :P

With respect at low the speed with vlc, well my turbo loader don't like this tricks, but take a look at your private messages,  you can found a mail with a few tapes that i'm sure that you could load without problems  ;)

DARKGATE

 :) thank you, in this week i try to see if work correctly.
  I have made the BETA TESTER for AMSTRAD emulator for DREAMCAST, and   CAPRICE for GP2X, i love the amstrad and if i can help someone i am   here.

p.s. sorry much for not respond at others private message months ago,  :( i have for now o lot of problems.

The software used for playing back the wav is very important.

VLC is not suited for this task.

Use Goldwave to get a normal and correct playback.

CDT2WAV is also a better choice than tzx2wav (not always successfull).

Also, just one thing, any CPC is able to load 2500 bauds tape. My cpc 464 and 464+ does it perfect.
