I really have done a lot with my C-16, electronics supplements and software in the 1980´ies, but did get burned out, as an cell.phone-developer. So it has been a while since last. In my cellar is about 106 pcs. C-16´s ... I and was trying to do a lot of serious controlling of developement industry circuits with that computer. A few was sold. Now many years of beeing almoust an outsider, i Want Back. C-16 is a fine mashine for doing that "simple work" = "great work". Nowadays all PC;s are to complicated,too fast, and does not even always contain any ports for simple things. If someone has ideas, i am willing to fulfill those, if a company ... i´ll charge of cause.
But now i Would like to get some contacts with someone not beeing "game-fans" , which I´m not.
I am 47 years old and an engineer in electronics. Is there out somewhere an other, who is interested sharing information about the commodore-16 ?
I have developed a cartridge RAM-card and an I/O- card, and expanded the memory from 16K to 64K. I have written software to do use of my developement.
My rtdos account (rtdos@yahoo.com) on yahoo (and the groups I had) no longer exist. This includes my webpage. :-(
Apparently they got to me before I could shove it up their arse. Anyways I will be looking for a new place for my website and will let every one know in due time (this time not until it is ready for public consumption).
My new webpage will somehow be dedicated to rtdos and the many classic systems as well as a tie in with my groups on MSN (unless I can find a good website / chatsite combo package really really cheap).

At the start of the game it comes a couple of different questions which i cant answer, as i havent got the manual for the game. Do any of you know these questions and answers or anything to let me pass these questions to play the game?

Cheers for reading and happy chatting in the new one
Anyone remember a program called "Screen Save" that was used for saving code on a C16/+4 in a compressed "Novaload" like way?
As I remember you would load a game then reset the computer to the monitor. Then load the "Screen Save" program from tape.
The clever thing was it loaded to the colour map 0x0800 and lower screen map 0x0C00 so would not touch any of the actual RAM used by the program/game. I think you would then do something like G800,1000,3FFF to run "Screen Save" and save the memory in the compressed format on tape.
