- I was curious about this old RPG, and wanted to try it out on the MiSTer. First I tried the Commodore PET core, but I'm having a lot of trouble finding games for the PET. The TRS-80 games are more accessible, and the computer has some nice online resources. This game is highly confusing to play, though, it makes Rogue seem downright user friendly.
- Starting games from disk on the TRS-80 is not trivial. Here is what I figured out:
In MiSTer OSD: Mount disk 0: NEWDOS*.DSK Mount disk 1: [game disk]
List game files: DIR 1
Example files: APSHAI/JCL <- chain file (script, like a BAT file) SWAMP/CMD <- binary STUFF/BAS <- BASIC program
Starting APSHAI/JCL:
chain apshai
Starting SWAMP/CMD:
swamp
Starting STUFF/BAS:
basic runstuff/bas
