Turbo load working

Post by nollkolltroll »

I finally got some time to test OTLA. I found that I can reliably load at 12000 bps on both my ZX81s from my Linux PC. 16200 works only sometimes so I won't use that. Yes, the program works under wine.
The only thing I miss is a command-line utility that converts with this method. The GUI is usable, but what I really want is to automate my development/download/test-cycle. I might have to make a port some day.
Another thing to test in the future is to actually save/load to a real tape and see what works :) If I only had some empty tapes...

This is great news.. the ZX81 tubo loaders are even more fascinating than the Spectrum's ones !
I'd love to have parts of the OTLA project into the z88dk's appmake tool, sadly there's already so much to do.. :)
