If QL-Emulator works on Rosetta

Re: QL Cartridges lot on Ebay

Floppy disk image of MacSporran's sent to Rich @ RWAP for preservation. The original disk was reporting not found, but luckily the backup disk worked. Let's hope we get permission to release this. It's an impressive demonstration of what the ACT tool could achieve. Floppy disk -> QIMSI SD -> Mac SD ...

Re: Q-Emulator for Mac

I have an M3 MBP and would be happy to test, but it’s hardly an ideal dev model to have to rely on someone else for even basic testing.

Re: Greetings from Wales

Hi Rich,

Are you still in contact with the authors of MacSporran's Lament, Dave and Ann Watson? I have found the game+manual which I bought from you/CGH Services back in the day. It would be great to get their permission to release it as freeware.

Re: QL Cartridges lot on Ebay

I've found a second disk with McSporran's lament on it, this one with v3.0.0 against the title. So hopefully between those two disks we'll have a complete extract.

Re: QL Cartridges lot on Ebay

OK so first the good news - I have found the disk with McSporran's Lament. Hopefully it's operational. I will try it when I dig the disk drives out this weekend. Now to Anelpum Quat. Sorry, I've confused this with Angstrom Angst. And a double confusion as my initial thought of the game being set in ...
