Alternative spectrum ROM

[Hackshed_Carl]

Hi all

Just read this article and thought I'd share it with everyone.
Basically, it's a replacement ROM file for the speccy with basic removed but different features added.
I'll be having a play with it tomorrow but wanted to share it with other speccy fans

Would that be as simple as renaming AGD0.1.BIN to spectrum.rom?

I'm hoping so

Title (website one, not yours) is a bit clickbait, but it's for Arcade Game Designer development purposes, as right now people load a TAP to create a game using ZX Spectrum...

Original post is more clarifying

Does the Speccy core have saving? If not then this is pretty useless?

I want to use another "rom" in Mister's ZX Spectrum, is it possible? I tried to find where is the "rom" directory that Mister's ZX Spectrum, but I couldn't find it, does anyone know where it is or if it is possible to change?
Ps. there are 2 files in the Spectrum directory "boot.rom and boot.rom_rc196" but they are not being used!

Stupid Spectrum core which is the only one requiring the boot roms must be in /media/fat and not in the games/Spectrum directory.

Uh? It works for me in games/Spectrum/boot.rom. In fact that's where it is with the new distribution system. https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/Distrib ... s/Spectrum

boot.rom is a collection of ROMs with 48K, 128K, +3 and I believe others. Which one do you want to replace?
