Game loader for Spartados

[Marius]

Hi all,

 

On SpartaDos 3.2 and 3.3 I have been using the Micro Spartados binary loader created by BeWeSoft. Worked pretty well.

 

I'm pretty sure I read last year about an update of this program, written by someone else, or perhaps a new project about a binary loader for SpartaDos, but I can not find this thread anymore.

 

Anyone familiar with this?

 

I'm looking for a binary loader like PicoDos but then for SpartaDos format, and especially supporting the 512 bytes/sector format.

 

Does it exist?

 

Thanks a lot

M.

Have you had a look at SDLOAD in the SDX toolkit?

Maybe you mean this thread? Down below there is MSDOS 4.6 for download:

Yes, besides SDLOAD (which requires at least 128KiB of RAM) a very capable loader is built-in into the IDE+ 2.0. Besides files it also starts whole images. That's why I stored all ABBUC magazine disks as ATR images on CF in a 32MiB partition.
