Hi Guy's

The GameBase Enterprise v1.00 is finished

Many thanks to .mad. for his superb GEMUS-Script !

You can DL from UG :
GameBase Enterprise v1.00
The Emulators
(i've made 2 Torrents, because of the UG-Rules)
Just unzip both in the "Main_Gamebase-Folder" by Jimbo.

Now also available on Megaupload :
GameBase Enterprise v1.00

You should use the Gemus-Script "EP128 - v2.0 by mad.txt"
I hope all works fine.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask here.

btw.
There is still much to do with this GB.
- more extras, more links, etc.
This will come in a later updated *.mdb file.

Have Fun !

Cheers Vicman!

Hi Vicman, when running the disk version of Abyss from Extras send_keys is sending loadC34abyss.comC34 to the emulator, looks like a {C34} interpreting problem.

-Update, fixed it by simply replacing the {C34} with a literal " - I know I should'nt have to do this but is the {CXXX} character key code in Run_Emulator_send_keys() function not working with my version of Gamebase 1.3 (db v2.8 26th April 2010) ?

Other stuff like {Enter} working fine so why not {C34}, anyone help?

-Panic over, I updated to the latest Gamebase 1.3 and all is now fine!

Thanks, very nice.

I remember at the time thinking the Enterprise/Flan was a promising computer...shame it has so many direct spectrum ports. Seems the games not sourced from the spectrum versions looked much better.

Hi OX,

sorry for my late reply....
It seems you have solved the problem yourself
Are there any other problems with this GB ?
Does mad's script works well for you ?
Which Keyboard-Layout you're using....UK-Keyboard ?
(because i have a German-Keyboard and this works also when using +{2} instead {C34} )

Yeah ! I confirm this....the "original" EP-Games are nice !
(also the soundchip "Dave" is great....you should listen at the
demo petshop on Disk 19 in Digitrax Music Demos)
And i also like the Amstrad conversions

I'm on a UK keyboard, .mad.'s script works great as always.
It's an excellent gamebase with a lot of features.

I have'nt tried out all the possibilities in the Gemus script but when I tried out Bugaboo (Spectrum game in emulator mode) from Extras - Play Game/Open Disk it failed to load.

Also, is there any way of playing games that use the Enterprises built in joystick with a proper usb joystick?

BoogaBoo is waiting for you to press J then Shift P twice (enter).
LOAD""
to continue the loading.

USB Joysticks works in two ways.
when redefining keys - move joystick instead of key press.

or if game options have Joystick EXTERNAL 1 or EXTERNAL 2
you can add this to GLOBAL KEYSET in gemus
joy=ext1
or
joy=ext2

the internal joystick settings could be changed for the EXTERNAL. in the script with a simple cut and paste.
keyboard map 70.0 - 74.0

Getting error "not a dos disk -- drive a:" - when trying to run stuff setup to run under EP32, eg: antimega demo - any ideas what is wrong?

Hi Ox,
please look on the ep32-GUI at Hardware/load memory config/
(or push alt+F2)
and select the 640k, EXOS 2.3, tape.cfg

Close the emu and try it again. It should work now ?!

Yeah, that fixed it. Thanks Vicman.

Thanks for a great GameBase. I have som problems thou that I help someone can help with.

I have installed the latest 1.3 version of gamebase. I downloaded the Enterprise GameBase rar file, extracted and placed the folder (Vicman ...) in the root of the gamebase directory.

But when I start gamebase nothing comes up. It says that there are no gamebase folders to chose from, and I have to create one.

Am I dooing something wrong?

I normally run Ubuntu 64 (the windows version from above is running in a XP install in VMware) and use jgamebase. jgamabase (latest dev. version) loads the EnterPrise gamabase just fine. It is placed in .jgambase in my home dir.

I have setup ep128emu linux version. Works fine. I have configured paths and verified files.

I have set my emulator path to the executable of ep128emu and set it to mads script.

But when I pres play the screenshots just blinks shortly and nothing happens.

Any suggestions?

Thank you in advance!

Hi John,
nice to meet you here
I think the problem is the Folder-Name.
(you dl the GB from the EP-Forum, right ? )
The Foldername must be Enterprise, not Vicman....(I think Mr.Prise has renamed my upload there...)
i.e. C:\GameBase\Enterprise.....
