Battle System Test Version 1 Release

I've put the source code for the first release of the Battle Test up on GitHub. You'll find all the tape and disk images in a 7z file under the releases tab. It's a minimal implementation of the first battle from Final Fantasy VII, done as a scrolling set of text menus. It's not much of a game, but you can play it on almost any computer you can think of, and it's all written in glorious BASIC code.

CoCo 3 NitrOS-9 Emulator VHD Install Disks

OK, so I've been putting more work into getting emulators installed on my computer again, and I decided to take a quick little dip into OS-9 for the Tandy Color Computer 3. Or to be more precise, NitrOS-9 . There are some pre-made VHD files out there, but those are years old, and the installation files from Robert Gault are even older. (UPDATE: There are pre-built images with lots of extra stuff included available from NitrOS-9 Ease of Use .) So, I played around with the NitrOS-9 build files, and compiled some installation disks based on the latest sources. I've put a video guide on how to set up your own VHD up on my YouTube page available  here . The actual installation disks, with written instructions and a source code patch are up on my Dropbox  here .

Another Update

 It's been quite a while since my last post, but if you've paying attention to my YouTube channel, I've been doing stuff, just nothing related to this blog. I should be able to get another blog post up by the end of the weekend, which will be the first in a series of posts. No, the post has nothing to do with the original purpose of this blog. I have no idea when I'm going to start working on BASIC Wrangler again, and work on the game will have to wait until I've finished what I was doing before with that.
