I need to make an empty tape file to be able to save a game in my emulator (ZXspin) . Can anyone tell me how to do this?

Let me clarify my question. I finished the first part of the game and now I am asked to insert a tape to save the game and then load it into the second part. How do you do that on a zx spectrum emulator? I have ZXspin and EMuzwin on my computer. I don't know which one is better for this.

Alex, for ZXSpin under the Recording menu choose Tape Recording > Insert Tape for Saving, then choose where you want to save the file and give it a name, remembering to give it the tape image extension you desire. After that go back to the Spectrum program and let it save the game.
