I figured, but it's a bit rubbish not to be able to go back down the exact same ladder you just went up. Did it catch fire or something?

There's only one thing left stumping me. To express all the above more simply: the version of the game attached to that post works perfectly. However, if you add just one line to it: 460 GOTO 8800 then it will crash at the start of the race with a C/7196 error, even if line 8800 is just 8800 GOTO 4...

:lol: "Vitesse"="Gear" ("boîte de vitesse"= gearbox) You are of course correct, but here in the UK the two words are interchangeable in the context of gears - that's why we talk about a "10-speed" bicycle or a car with a "six-speed" gearbox :D https://www.gearboxspecialistsbournemouth.co.uk/whats-t...

Here's the version with those POKEs applied. Stock-Car (EN V2).p There's only one thing left stumping me. I tried to improve the game by adding a high score, displayed on the instructions screen.

Also not quite sure what the point of the "moles" is. It reminds me on a superficial level of Space Zap, which I was always surpri...

Lovely cape action

I'll assume you're using Eighty One? C/10 indicates Zxpand not initiated even though you say it is. I long since gave up on Eighty One and it's various foibles and I'm not able to say why your copy is behaving as such, and I use SZ-81 instead as it doesn't take a muscle machine to run it and just e...

Can't get this to work at all. ZXpand is enabled, CHR$128 set, WRX off, all three files in the folder, but if I load HREM.P and run it I get a C/10 error.
