Living in Japan I've been searching for some time for Japanese
specific programs that were written to work on an Apple IIj plus
(which I own), and recently I found a small pile of Apple II
cassettes, and I believe some are Japanese specific. Some cassettes
are original, but most are copies. I have made digital wav files of
everything, and have used Ciderpress to convert the wav files and put
the contents on a virtual DOS3.3 floppy (.po file). Most wav files
converted ok, but a couple of the wav files were unreadable (BAD) by
Ciderpress at all settings and re-recording the wav files at different
levels did not fix the issue, so maybe they are gone forever.
All the programs are machine code except one (Planets by Programma). I
was able to load the .po file for Planets and run this in an emulator
in Applesoft basic, but how do I load and run the machine code
programs, many of which have converted as 2 or 3 separate files using
Ciderpress? I'm a little confused.
Is there any other programs that can convert wav files into something
usable for an emulator. I have tried converting the wav to aiff (or
cass file - same thing) and loading them in Virtual ]['s virtual
cassette, but nothing works and I get ERR every time.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Phil
