Super Magicom / Super Wildcard files uploaded.

[JakobAir]

Hey all! I've uploaded the necessary files to connect the Super Magicom / Super Wildcard to PC. The operating system MUST be 16 or 32 bit as they are written for a 16 bit operating system. I've tried using them on Win7 x64 (I will never upgrade) and they simply will not work. You can use an emulator like DOSbox or vDOS if you like, but that's just more steps. The files are at https://github.com/JakobAir/Super-Magicom-Super-Wildcard for whoever wants to mess around with them. A parallel port (LPT/DB25) must be used as well.

Have fun!

Why would it be only working on a 16 or 32-bit OS? That seems counterproductive IMO.

The programs we're written ages ago and there doesn't seem to be much interest in updating them. I'm not programmer so I can't help much aside from archiving them.

I suppose DosBox is the only real viable method on newer OSes.

Virtual box with a 32 bit OS.
One of the better ways to run ancient 32/16 bit software.

It's just a shame I royally suck at old DOS CLI, it's been far too long and I forgot like 90% of what I used to know in the 90's.

Install Win 98 in Virtualbox, barely any need to mess around with DOS.

Hmm never thought of doing that.

Suddenly it isn't so counterproductive now isn't it?

I buyed a week ago a super wildcard dx2 wit diskdual,both boxed with manuals-software and cables and are as new.
Its just for nostalgia,own 5 other copiers and a few for megadrive.
These days we use mostly a flashcard (sd2snes pro).
But it was a lovely time.

No, it isn't, I redact what I said about that >.>

Would you mind uploading or sending me the software?
