etabeta78: post some X1 .tap screens or it didn't happened here you are Castle Excellent Coron Daidasso Diamond Adventurer F2 Grand Prix Tennis Freak Thanks God It's Friday Tan Tan Yume no Yakyuu On a side note: does they all works or there's a bug that I need to know about? They most seem to load and run fine, but - Super Mario SP: does not load properly - Creamy Mami: either the tap is incomplete or the game misses the end of the tape - Minami Taihei-yo Adventure (minami.tap): It complains about something PCG related. Notice that the game only loads in dB-BASIC, so you need to pair up the tape with dbbasic from the floppy softlist OTOH, you might want to take a look to the following floppy games which have been added in the past week to the softlist: Casablanca, Kohakuiro no Yuigon, Satsujin wa Tegami ni Notte, Re-Birth, Star Trap, Melon Soda and Produce The first 2 or 3 titles, in particular, trigger some specific graphic mode which seems to be not fully implemented...

Here a short description how I made a bootable CD-ROM image (Towns System Software V2.1 L51) by using the files from the Harddisk image.
1.) Files/Folders from the Harddisk image extracted. 2.) Drive letter in different files (AUTOEXEC.BAT/DOS.BAT/TMENU.BAT D: > Q: /depent of your settings for MSCDEX) fitted. 3.) ImgBurn > Create image file from files/folders 4.) Following files on ImgBurn placed (the sequence is important!):
IO.SYS CONFIG.SYS AUTOEXEC.BAT RUN386.EXE TBIOS.BIN TBIOS.SYS
and all the other files/folders (the order is now no more important).
5.) CD-ROM image (Alltynex.iso) created. 6.) CUE file for the Alltynex.iso created. 7.) For FM-Towns you need the IPL tools (IPL.BIN/IPL.COM) to make the CD bootable. Command line: IPL IPL.BIN Alltynex.iso The new CD-ROM image is now bootable. 8.) chdman createcd -i Alltynex.cue -o Alltynex.chd

Yeah, I'm aware of that problem, it's true 400 lines mode that I haven't yet understood the mechanics.
