    Wow, complete source to Buggy Boy :-)

    Including tables, gfx and music. That is quite a find.

    It would be great to find more source code like that, it's a shame so many 80's programmers just threw the source away when they finish coding for the Spectrum.

    Buggy Boy source code?!

    wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow!

    My doctor says I have a critical need for new custom Buggy Boy courses, and without them I may die, and producing the 1985 chapter becomes even harder then.

    Have fun assembling them - it uses macros, and unless you have the same assembler as he used, you're going to fall over on them.

    Anyone any idea which assembler it was?

    Tch! You make it sound like I'm predictable! (okay, so maybe I am... ;) )

    What I forgot to say is that we're currently trying to see how Elite feels about having the source code in the archive. Fingers crossed, eh?

    Maz has posted on c.s.s. and from what he says I think the assembler he used was the PC based PDS (Programmers Development System).
