It is me pesting again. :wink:

In amongst the floppies I got for the PC-98 package JS-Word, I found this for the PC88:

Only 1 disk - others might be missing. I am battling to image the floppy ( I must still set up a win98 PC and try DITT ). But I can't find a PC88 game called anything Shogun, and Google isn't helping either.

Any ideas?

Thanks

If I were that left guy,he would be a little young for his chronological age.
because I'm 33 years old,So In 1986,I was 6 at that time...

by the way,I wanted to contribute your preservation for the retro PC software,
So I tried to look up them in my house a while ago.
but there is only a handful of business data disks.
it seems my dad has already thrown out all of 5 or 3.5 floppy business application software or utility.

I have bought some games When I was in my teens,but sadly all of them have faded away in time, either.

Thanks Trickless - I don't know how you do it! - appreciated. :D

Looks like Win98 PC has to be built to try DITT.

EDIT: Done, and no luck at all.

I'm not so sure - he looks just like you. :wink:

(Just kidding)

Well thanks for trying. If you do stumble on anything, all contributions gratefully accepted.

I'll be needing more help soon - more stuff on the way hopefully.

Fedex are amazing - picked up in Tokyo Monday morning, cleared customs and delivered in South Africa Friday lunchtime. :D

I'm going to be needing help as usual as I can't read the labels. :oops:

One pack is a set of 30 or so PC98 doujins - mostly CG the auction said, and so it seems. They'll be going up on the Super Lonely Terminal soon, once I have had a bit more time. Here's a sample:

Thank you so much, delicious! :D Your information is amazing, and I am most grateful for the time and effort you put in to assist.

The first pack of 10 is up at http://slt.retroprograms.com/

Please let me know of any mistakes, or anything named incorrectly.

( Some of these doujins seem executable on X68000 too, btw )

EDIT.

The seller of the doujin pack kindly included two floppy boxes of I-O magazine coverdisks - 11 each from 1992 and 1990 ( as well as two boxes of blank floppies LOL! ). I hope I have imaged these right as Omniflop diagnoses them as 78 track and then gives an error on each track 78: I have imaged them as 77 track. There are files for different systems on these ( ie: not just PC98 ). The files mostly seem to be self-extracting archives, so one would need to copy a file onto a hard drive before executing it. The 1992 ones are done, and up at the Super Lonely Terminal.

PS. How do you make an underscore character using a standard PC keyboard in Neko?

PPS. Would someone kindly tell me the name of this one please:?

Image

PPPS. And these - one some help or add-on for MS-DOS, the other a magazine disk - what magazine?

Great work peter_j! Thank you for sharing.

The images above are:

1. Totsugeki Bakkon High School by Pasoket Office
Probably a doujin spinoff of Totsugeki Bakkon Street by Jast (http://fullmotionvideo.free.fr/screen/G3682.html)
Pasoket was a computer-oriented doujin event like Comiket, but they also sold software under their own brand like this.

2. MS-DOS Utility Book by Shuwa System

3. FD Educational Materials Data, March 1994 edition by Gakken.

Shift-backslash (\)

Thanks very much for your help once again, kobushi. I'll be getting those up soon now I know how to name them.

Sadly shift-backslash on my keyboard just gives the pipe character | in Neko. I was sure I had tried just about everything. Maybe I'm just being stupid again LOL. :wink:

I have the same problem, so I'm always working it around.
1. Click right mouse button on the NP title bar.
2. Select "soft keyboard".
3. Press shift and click with left mouse button on the red marked key.
I know it's not too comfortable to use, but for me it's the only solution.

Hmm... I guess Neko assumes a 106 JP keyboard layout. You could try switching to a Japanese keyboard layout in Windows, but Misumaru's solution is probably more convenient.

As an alternative soft keyboard I use ManuKey independently of NP.
