Gamebase Oric v0.5

[Tubbs3622]

I've uploaded the latest release to Rapidshare for those who don't use UG. This will be the last release for at least a month as I have added the majority of games currently available online. There are still many games to add from listings in books or magazines but I will have to type them in first

Here's the Rapidshare link:-

Thanks Tubbs, just one more thing - you need to use GB toolbox to scan and fix errors on your oric db and then compact the db

Here's an update on your gemus script, you must add "[options]" at the very top of the oricutron.cfg file for it to work as the Set_INI_Value command needs a section marker, also select the oricutron.cfg file as the emulator script file in emulator properties (you had oricutron.txt selected which is the actual gemus script itself).



;********************************
;* Oricutron GEMUS Script *
;* 11 June 2012 *

; PLEASE SET YOUR EMULATOR PROPERTIES AS FOLLOWS:
;
; Emulator File: ORICUTRON.EXE
; Associated Script File (1): Oricutron.cfg
; Use Short Filenames: YES
; File Types: TAP;DSK
; (Compressed File Types: GZ;Z;BZ2;ZIP;TAR;TZG;ZOO)
;
; This script was written for Oricutron 0.9,
; but may work with other versions too.
;
; YOU MUST PLACE AN [options] SECTION MARKER AT TOP OF ORICUTRON.CFG FILE FOR SCRIPT TO WORK

V0.8 is now available at Underground Gamer.

Thanks for the new script OX, It's not included in the latest release since I only saw your post when I came here to post this!! I'll check it out and likely use it in the next release.

I'm not sure what you mean by using the toolbox to fix errors in the database, could you give me some more info on this? Thanks.

When you install the Gamebase frontend, it installs a 2nd shortcut, GBToolbox. Start that, click on the plus to expand the Oric Gamebase. Right click on the .mdb file(should be the 1st thing listed). The top 2 options should be Compact & Scan and Fix Errors.

It would of course be a good idea to back up the file first.

Thanks Tubbs, any chance of posting some links here á la rapidshare?

[Tubbs3622]

I will upload it to rapidshare but it will have to be tomorrow evening. My upload speed is very slow and the torrent is still uploading to the first peer, also I have work tomorrow so I'm going to bed very soon

Thanks Tubbs, any chance of posting some links here á la rapidshare?

[Tubbs3622]

Just spent three hours uploading to Rapidshare, it got to 39% then completely locked up. I'll have to leave it now for another day, curse my slow upload speeds

The Latest Oric V8 Gamebase has been posted on UndergroundGamer

[Hidron]

Which was announced in the post that follows the new script file above from Ox.

[Tubbs3622]

V0.9 is now available at UG. This release has 775 entries, not quite as impressive as the 23000 entries in the new GB64 release but that's the Oric for you...

Despite having a slow 1khz 6502 processor

I may be half asleep still (not a morning person), but is that supposed to be 1 mhz?

Looks like a really big update. Thank you for the hard work.

Oops, better edit that.

Any chance of a rapidshare link anyone?
