Played it a bit now seems to work so here are the files once the music stops or just before on Javacpc load Episode 1 tape.

If anyone can get it on disk this would be great.

Was this ever transferred to dsk after all?

I had a go at trying to transfer it to DSK this weekend, but as has already been confirmed, episode 4 doesn't load fully. The CDT from CPC-POWER also doesn't load the first block of episode 4. :(

If I had a WAV file of the cassette that I could download, I could try converting it to a CDT myself.

I have a 145 meg wav file of side B just need a place to upload it to

I had the disc version back the day. It worked just fine. In German.

Hello Dominic,

i have download the WAV file, and i'm going to reprocess it again. :)

i'll post here what i get !

dlfrsilver

it's impossible to process correctly the dump, because the tape is maybe old, but also mainly because the tape recorder used
is unable to process the tape correctly.

I sent Dominic a PM in order to see if he agree to send the tape to me.

I have an excellent equipment to dump tapes, and i could provide him the dumping service, like i'm doing for a french collector.

Let's see what he thinks of it :)

Gryzor

Oh my! This will be a tremendous treat, essentially it's a lost edition... Crossing fingers (again)!

dlfrsilver

Hi :) Dominic has answered me by mail. He will send me POTW2 tape version once back from holidays :)

Great, the dumping will be perfect !

robcfg

That's awesome news!


I took a look at the wav file, but seems to have been recorden at an extremely high input level so the waveform is utterly distorted.


Please send a huge Thank you! to Dominic, and keep us updated on the progress!

Gryzor

This is fantastic news indeed! Thanks to the both of you :)

dcdrac

Tapes on their way today by air mail.

Gryzor

Oh yeah baby :) Now I must find the French version, then wait for the proper conversion and stick it into the original case :)

Hello Guys :)

I got today the tape(s) from Dominic.

I have excellent news ! At first, the tapes were stored in a place with humidity (mostly), and the black little shit on the copper tin had some filth on it. A bit of 70% alcohol on it did quite wonders :) I have been able to record and process faithfully both sides, with no problem.

I'm now checking each episode to see if everything is good.

Other than that, this game has a nasty bug on tape. When starting, you must not press 'ESC', otherwise the game crash :(

Each episode is fine :)

Loaded it up just now on JavaCPC looks good thank you.

Oh I did originally find the tape stuck behind a hot water pipe in the cupboard...

I will ask to a friend if he can make a disk version out of the tape :)

And I will also have a go - but it will take me a while. Multiload games always do. :)

All of this has reminded me that I still haven't transferred my own cassette version of Passengers of the Wind to CDT... :-[

dcdrac

Is that Passengers of the Wind 1?

I never saw that for sale
