Hi,
Does any one have a flux / pulse based capture of a 1541 disk of Galaxian by Thunder Mountain for a PAL C64 in either P64 or FDI format? This needs to be an image that is not originally sourced from a G64 or GCR images.

I am having trouble getting Galaxian in G64 format from the preservation collection to load a development version Hoxs64 with new experimental VIA shift register support. I can get past the shift register decryption but get stuck on track 22. Curiously, the game loads correctly about 1 in 100 times but I would like to rule out the G64 capture as being an issue after seeing other G64s with truncated tracks.

Thanks in advance.

No. But I have about ten different Galaxian images plus Pac-Man by
Thunder Mountain-Namco in my collection. At least what I can tell from
the file names.

I tested four of them but none mentions "Thunder Mountain" in the splash
screen. Suppose I don't have what you want. Sorry.

Thanks for looking Andreas, The author of Pi1541 just provided me with a copy that works and we are all good now.

Case closed.
Regards,
David
