More Megatapes online
Posted: Thu Oct 17, 2019 10:48 pm
Hi all,
some time ago I bought a copy of the Zzap! Mega-Tape, the one attached to issue 42, and a copy of the Zzap! Sampler, the one with Gribbly's etc., and put clean dumps of those on c64tapes.org.
Now c64tapes.org is down (the admin told me "I've got backup of all files. The plan is to put it on the web again" but there's no timeline, so better not wait for it). Therefore I dug up the dumps from an old HD and put them on Dropbox (same URL as posted on this Lemon thread).
The same path contains more Megatape dumps, namely all those that are not on the DVD (nor on archive.org, that has a verbatim copy of the tapes on the DVD) and I had in my collection or bought from eBay. Even the dump of Megatape 35 is mine (even though Frank Gasking also dumped it and put it online for a short period: the one in that Dropbox folder is not Frank's dump).
Now, this could be an occasion to put a really complete archive of Megatapes on this site. I know, it is not the first time I ask for this, but the search engine says that the last time I did on this forum was in 2007, so that's not too often...
Note: Mort may have updated the collection of tapes on the DVD since the first edition
