Read the README? :)
This has only been tested with the version from the Commodore "Cartoon
Classics" A500+ bundle. If anyone has the commercial release of the game,
please let me know at <kyzer@4u.net>
This says it all. Well I too would like to get this version in my hands, yeah. :) Or Codetapper will eventually find the time to make a decent version of the game working with an ORIGINAL disk, too. That's the way to go, I think. But this depends on CT's schedule.

Ofcourse, i always reading readme :)
Dhis disk is a gift from my friend from UK, o dont kdow what version is it, but on plain a500 is workin very good.
If i list content of disk in wb, i see only one file "Boot???" with 1.3 wbstartscreen icon :) hehe
disk is not copyable using xcopy/nibble and any other copiers, but i want to archive it on HD/CD
I have some originals, all works with whdload very vell - except Captain planet
thats all, folks

I have hardly enough time for my own work let alone fixing other people's installs. Kyzer is still around so email him not me! I don't know anything about the game.
"Not a dos disk" just means that it's NDOS - it should still image unless it's an incompatible version in which case you should email Kyzer not report it to EAB!
Read the imaging (http://www.whdload.org/imaging.html) instructions page for all you need.

That's what I thought also, but that wasn't the point. The actual point was that I was just thinking about a "Codetapper fix" (read an alternative install) for this game made FROM SCRATCH. OMG, I didn't say a word about hacking into Kyzer's code!
Codetapper, maybe you missed this bit: he has the ORIGINAL disks which he bought but Kyzer's installer only supports the version from the *free* Cartoon Classics compilation which came bundled with the A500+.

Kyzer's email address is on the WHDLoad page and if you send from a *real* email account (ie. not a blacklisted server type) the mail gets through...
He will support the missing version I'm sure... Get somebody else to email him (so it doesn't bounce) or if that fails send me the disk image and i'll pass it on since my server isn't blacklisted :)

Thanx for all and for your time Codetapper. Cour Installs (and cheats) are excellent!
