Great to see the programs coming in, I'll get on the case with what I have.

Can you tell us anymore about that adventure writer?!

No more details on the Adventure Writer I am afraid - probably picked it up from an early QL World.

I have also found the adverts for the MS-DOS emulators which were involved in the early emulator wards - does anyone have copies of non DP MS-DOS emulators?

There were (at least):
IBM PC Emulator v1 and v2 from Ant Computing
Transformer from Schoen

I have added some more missing software titles to the list at the start of this topic.

I have now managed to get a working copy of THE SIMULATOR by Ekotek datasystems - it is another flight simulator.

At the moment, the copy protection is still in force, but it will run under Q-emuLator from a disk image. Presumably I can also make a working copy on disk if anyone has the original and needs a working copy.

I have now got a working copy of E.V.A by Westway Limited - it is a good arcade game, and works well in Q-emuLator, although I am not quite sure how to play it!

Does anyone have instructions?

Details appear on the QL Wiki

I managed to retrieve it from 3 or 4 cartridges, and then remove the simple copy protection - it now appears to work fine in Q-emuLator - unfortunately, it was the end of the cartridges.

I am not sure where the picture of the software case came from - it is from some time ago!

Hi - that is great thankyou - I have an original here (I think), but the files are corrupt
