They don't sound too bad on the emulator. Things do tend to sound better on the real Oric. Twi used to make sample 4bit instead of 8bit which squashed them down in size but the sound does become a bit more distorted. Soundtracker used little short samples so you could have a few different sound to p...

English versions of Sedoric V1.7, V2.0 (and V3) manuals are all now available.

Hi, Sorry, I haven't had time to sort things out for you. I have a board that I know works which doesn't boot with the extra power supply for the drive(s). I keep meaning to sort a different power supply to test it works properly -then I can send it to you to compare. Currently it does something sim...

Many thanks!

Can anyone convert these for me to Oric dsk files? They are Sedoric DOS 2 and 2.1 master disks with a few added things, I think. Trying a newer version of Greaseweazle software - not sure if it's any different. The Sed2 disk has a couple of bad sectors but I don't think it is in an area that matters...

Else, you have not a Microdisc controller but Cumana! In common they do the same but in regard of controller-ROM content maybe you'll need Cumana DOS instead of SEDORIC. Only Cumana v1 required Cumana Dos. It's pretty rare these days. Cumana V2 was pretty much the same as the Microdisc ROM. This is...

Try Mutant Caterpillar.

It seems that, at the origin, GAME INIT used the page four and that its only purpose was to save room on discs. From what I remember, some games wouldn't work with the full DOS, so GAMEINIT allowed some games to run (hence the name), so it wasn't just about space-saving. I think some games clashed ...

Any English manual for V1.006 has long disappeared in the mists of time. The V2.0 manual was a rather skimpy affair compared to the V3 manual, I don’t think I have a printed copy - but its guts are online here: http://oric.free.fr/DISKS/sedoric.html I have printed copies of the Sedoric - A Summary ...

Maybe the V1.6 and V2.1 manuals would be worth scanning?

I like a joystick with a trigger fire button. The Oric one doesn't have that. It isn't a great shape so doesn't feel very positive in the hand. Many better joysticks about. Nice to have - not so nice to use. I have a couple of them. I use a Quickshot II which is near enough Atmos coloured. https://i...

Thanks - I did find it after a search. I couldn't find Oric tapes though.It doesn't seem a very easy site to find things.

Gamebase has the problem of not labelling the software house, so you have different version of things like Invaders and aren't sure which is which.
And it just has games.

What's a TOSEC and why are you looking there?

I think I have a spare one.

No problem but please don't ask me support anymore then ! (And read the license attached to this software !) Sorry, I'm not blaming you, just trying to understand what is going on. The latest issue seems to be with your software, so I thought you be interested and maybe would like to know if there ...
