    I finally got round to having a go at this specy emu, but I havent had much joy with it yet.

    I've got a dozen or so games but there all in the 'ztx' format and not the supported '.Z80' or '.SNA'. Sorry for such a noobish question but is there a way to covert my games so that they will work? ...I've tried just renaming the files extension but that didnt make any difference. Any help would be appreciated.

    I'll be happy once I get Trap Door, Elite, Saboteur 2 and Horrace goes sking working.

    tzx IS supported by version 1.0.4 which you can find here:

    http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=26782

    however, you would be better using TAP files, which seem to always work and are always accellerated in loading time. certain TZXs load in real time, or get stuck, due to certain unsupported (by Fuse) loading routines. (somewhat ironically usually fast/turbo-loaders). TZXs and TAPs are the actual data from the tape, and so are much better to use than z80 or SNA snapshots imho.

    you can get all of the speccy games which havent been denied distribution (i.e. legal - nothing by Ultimate or Activision) from http://worldofspectrum.org - though you may already know this. they have pretty much everything in TAP format as well as TZX.

    wicked choices of games btw. gotta love Horace Goes Skiing on the PSP! check out Horace & the Spiders too.... it's one of my faves!

    I'll try that version of the emulator when I get home, thanks very much for the info/link.

    Thats funny that you say TZXs load in real time.. I'd be here forever loading up my games (I guess use this format is if you want a 100% true emulation in loading times lol).

    edit: This verion kicks ass! Thanks very much... ive jjust got to figure out now how to define the controls properly.
