Just got this off ebay as I can't get the YAK CD 2 to uncompress from MSA.

I've extracted this onto a floppy disk and this now runs. It doesn't like hard disks as it seems setup to ask for a floppy disk.
This is the full version:
TRIPTRON.zip
I've just emailed Jeff Minter about purchasing a manual.

It was here:
http://atariforce.free.fr/afmenuuk.htm It's 10 sectors and 82 tracks. Tried formatting a disk to that with Fast Copy Pro but still no joy.

Can you link me to that @exxos so I can see if it works for the non-emulators amongst us?

So @exxos It turns out after testing, that your ST FORMAT MSA and the Atari Force MSA work.
The fault is using EmuTOS. It turns out MSA 1.41 will unpack every MSA on hard disk under TOS 1.04 but will only do some under EmuTOS.
This was a hard way to find it out. Lots of messing about. Fluffy Rabbits! :lol:
