Vic Stock Control
Does anyone have a copy of this they could share? Can't seem to find it anywhere online.
Re: Vic Stock Control
What is the (supposed) game about?

Re: Vic Stock Control
Not a game. Program to control your shop, restaurant or home stock (three of them on two cassettes in fact).

Couldn't find any dump anywhere.

Re: Vic Stock Control
When I was a child I remember to have a copy of Stock Control but in Spanish language (Control de Stock)
Don't know if it was an official translation from Commodore in Spain.
If I find this tape I could try to tranfer it, if you needed.

Re: Vic Stock Control
Thanks, Spanish not so useful to me, but others may benefit. Worth dumping if you have it.

Re: Vic Stock Control
Problems with the post office.. the package apparently got lost, or at least they can't find it
I'll see if things can be sorted out in the next few days

Re: Vic Stock Control
Here we are with the visual material (scans of box, cassette, and manual). Unfortunately, an easy way of dumping the cassette - i.e. just loading files and saving them on a .d64 - is prevented by some kind of copy protection. I'll try with the usual setup for complex dumping (walkman connected to a PC saving a WAV to be converted) as soon as I have spare hours. Very unlikely in this period

Just the WAVs would be too cool already.orion70 wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 11:52 am Here we are with the visual material (scans of box, cassette, and manual).

A man without talent or ambition is most easily pleased. Others set his path and he is content.

Re: Vic Stock Control
A complete WAV file of the whole cassette is now provided in the shared folder linked above (about 10 minutes, 46 Mb). Warning: I could not load the program(s) on the real VIC, as it gives load error even with a good datassette. Bad sign. See if you can sort it out.
