Alcon 2020 = CPR / What about Sword of Ianna?

It´s a pity that Ianna is only playable on exotic hardware.
Shouldn´t it be possible to convert the game to 512kb cpr?

I noticed that, too, and was very happy that Alcon 2020 runs on a CPC+ via ".cpr" image file, so I can even play it on my MAME CPC emulator.

Sword of Ianna however doesn't, which is a pity.

They said they need additonnal mapping of danda (which is almost available on CPR on 8 first rom. I dont get it too about this, especially for this game but hey. I'm not the coder

You can play it through emulation or buy a Dandy? I'm all for a .CPR file, but let's not hold back progress if not possible. Have you played it, it's unbelievable to think this exists on the CPC.

AFAIK I can´t connect it to my Schneider or CPC+...
Not interested in emulation, though...

You can check if Duke still has edge/Centronics adapters (http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/amstrad-cpc-hardware/centronic-converter/).

Thanks for the info.

Not sure if I want to buy all that stuff for one game.
I'd rather pay for a cpr release...
