Do you know if anyone ever bothered with this, or the floppy contents ever escaped into the wild?Converting to floppy disc use.
The simplest method ia to use the toolkit command FLP_USE MDV to emulate microdrives or to use a convert utility which converts every occurrence of MDV to FLP etc. A conversion to flp or fdk on 3.5 in disc will be available direct for Eidersoft for the price of a guaranteed for life disc and handling charge, total £5.50.

I have a copy which runs from disk - not sure if I patched it or someone else did...stephen_usher wrote: Do you know if anyone ever bothered with this, or the floppy contents ever escaped into the wild?

Re: ARTice: Did anyone ever pay for the floppy modified version?
Hi,
I used to load the binary file into The EditorSE and change MDV to FLP, worked quite well.
Probably now I would DEV device so that the DEV1 could defined before the programme started.
Has anyone tried to Decompile Artice?
