Missing Sinclair QL Titles

[RWAP]

I have now rescued Night Nurse published by Shadow Games - it is quite an easy game, but made difficult by it being painfully slow (written in SuperBASIC with machine code sprites).

I have just spent an hour or so improving the SuperBASIC (lots of poor programming - FOR... NEXT loops, without any END FORs, and IF... ELSE IF... with only one END IF !!).

I thought about compiling it with Qliberator, but that does not seem necessary now with the improved version it is quite playable.

That I am quite jealous of Rich, taking an existing previously sold game, and tidying up the SuperBasic making it playable, that is really great.

I have now rescued a load more software titles:

- 3D Designer by Talent (copy protected though)
- QIMP by Talent (I think!)
- QCODE for the Miracle Modem (v1.3)
- QCODE for the Miracle Modaptor (v5.1)
- Viewpoint by Rubicon
- Omega by Caret Limited (although it still seems to crash on q-emulator when you shoot a baddy - still investigating)
- RPM by Liberation Software (no idea if there should be more files - it includes an executable program and the rebel hard disk driver for some reason!)
- QLOAD / QREF by Liberation Software
- Oxford Trivia by Talent (although still copy protected)


I even found a cartridge with Hungry Harry on it - this seems to be a SuperBASIC game, but is unfortunately corrupt.

So do you have the DP title for Sprite editing etc.?

[RWAP]

Yes, I will have this somewhere on the Digital Precision collection which was a set of 12 disks (I think) containing their collected works all zipped up, including manuals.

The problem is that I don't have a separate disk version to sell on its own - you can always PM me an offer for the Digital Precision Collection - I know they charged about £120 for the lot!?

I was told, that Troll by Pyramide is another missing title.
The original I will send to RWAP for preservation, pictures are here:

I have added quite a few more titles to the list of missing software titles (see the start of this thread for the latest list)

Any help in finding these would be much appreciated

Hi Simon,

Do you have the source code the games?

I have fixed Space Paranoid / Star Guard and Galactic Invaders to work under q-emulator without copy protection (although they are all still subject to copyright - I have the rights to distribute these as (I believe) Talent acquired the rights to all Shadow Games software (I need to check with Tom on this). I am also in touch with Paul Tuck.

The PACMAN on the Austrian disks is Eidersoft's spook unfortunately...
