- ELITE #3 (very similar in appearance to some of Empire's menus)
- G-FORCE #50
- HOTLINE #15 (the list of games seems wrong)
- MR SHEEN #1
I have no idea if Dean made any more menus after this one but it's a pretty simple affair with other people's work thrown together under a particularly obnoxious raster on a 84 track disk. And what a pain that was. The disk is partially unreadable when using Floppy Image and copying it to another disk on a real ST so I had to make a new image by copying files in batches. Now, does 0-84 in the various copiers I used mean 84 or 85 tracks?? 84 is how it asks you to copy it. The last few tracks are the problem ones anyway.Speaking of what a pain in the arse this all was- while the Hotline disk (the best of the bunch) gave me very little trouble at all, the others gave me many a night of headaches. One or two had been copied with F-Copy Pro which means that can't be read on a PC and that was just the start of it. I still haven't tested them fully myself and I know for sure that the G-Force one has some problems. That's why I included the directory extractions. I mean there's 50 games and more on that one (sorry Brume!)
I have three ST(E)s. One 520 STFM, one 2MB STE and one 4MB STE with some dodgy innards and ports that need cleaning. I used this one predominantly because of all that RAM and its v1.62 TOS. But even that threw me because when I emulate some of the stuff some of it only seems to work on such a config and files seemed to be having meta information unique to that computer attached to them (???). I say that because other setups seemed to have trouble reading things but I feel quite confused with the whole thing now so I unfortunately I don't know where I am with it all exactly.
I will just say that I really tried to keep things as tidy and accurate as I possibly could with my limited knowledge and tetchy resources. What is the best way to do this anyway?!? Perhaps you can add some tips to the FAQ Brume. Cheers friend; I hope you find these useful (and not too much of a pain to test!)P.S. I want to check the Out of Order menu I submitted yonks ago at some point just to be sure I got it right first time. I think it's OK but I'll double check.
