I was wondering if anyone had the "INF" file for the original Nemisis (not Nemesis 2) they could share please?
Although for now I've copied 3 other corrupt files to an image of my original from the backup the "INF" file is corrupted on both microdrives
Many thanks

Re: Original Nemesis INF file?
Here we are. I think there are different Nemesis versions (at least different packaging). This is the one I have - zipped in Windows to allow attachment. Let me know if it works.

Ask me about felt pads - I can cut them to size and they have proven excellent for mdv data recovery.

I tried it on q-emulator and it crashes out after a short while of trying to launch, but I noticed on your website you mention you couldn't run it in q-emulator either
Mine has the same list of files as yours, in same order
Anyway, I tried it in vDrive instead and I got to the intro screen and the option to select 1 or 2, so thought it was ok. But when I selected 1 I ended up with a blue screen (actually alternate blue/black thin lines) very different to the q-emulator crash
I don't know if this is a further file corruption I don't know about or if it's failing a protection check, but without the ability to run it in q-emulator I don't think I'll get anywhere anyway!
Many thanks

Success!
I stripped it back to a BBQL and it went to the blue screen again but this time I saw a lot of mdv access and after a while the game started
Shall I send the ESC file over?

Seems I was being impatient as it does continue to load with trump+qimsi or just trump BUT the splash screen (after the blue screen) is fairly corrupt so will assume it's a BBQL only game
Many thanks

I do have a correct ESC file but I certainly wouldn't mind seeing yours to see if they are the same.t0nyt wrote: Sat Mar 29, 2025 3:49 pm Success!

Got it, yes it's the same as the uncorrupted version I got hold of.

Give me a shout if you need any help with the original Nemesis - I know it did have some issues but I cannot recall what they were (hence Nemesis MKII)
