Download link?

Anyone have any idea what's causing my problem. I don't know how often the creator checks out this forum, but I'd appreciate any help.

Can somebody explain where to download this? Can't find link anywhere.

What do I do about the error.

"No Valid Emulator Definition Could be Found In The Dat File"?

If I add winuae manually, it just loads the emulator when I double click on a game and not the game itself.

Thanks :)

Have you got latest version? It says it supports latest.

Yep. Latest everything. Latest WinUAE, Gamebase, and Gamebase Aimga

There's only the core files there. As the first post says, the EAB file server holds all you need under Belgarath's uploads.

@belgarath: i just wanted to let you know that i noticed a difference in the naming scheme of the (ftp) datfiles vs gba verification.

when renaming files according to the dat, some games are not recognized in gamebase (and vice versa).

no
good dump is in current TOSEC release.
just convert IPF



Just convert IPF
I was wrong, obviously there exists 2 versions, completely different disk structure, anyway fixed version of trained disk in the zone.
Just convert IPF.

Thanks again mai :great

I've already written back to Belgo about this ;)

Use a "Quickstart A500 1.3 ROM, ECS Agnus, 512 KB Chip RAM + 512 KB Slow RAM" configuration and all is good :agree

If you use "1MB Chip RAM" only with the above then I have the same issue as what Belgo originally reported i.e. can't get past the "Extra Chipmem Detected" screen :sad

I previously used this file "Sink or Swim (1993)(Zeppelin)[cr QTX][t +5 SCX].adf" but never fully tested through all levels... after reading this thread I skipped to level 9 and this was the outcome:

Came across this thread tonight, tested the file "Sink or Swim (1993)(Zeppelin)[cr QTX][f level 9][t +5 SCX].adf" in the latest TOSEC release and did the same as above; here's what level 9 looks like now:

Thank you to whoever was responsible for this fix :bowdown

Unfortunately not good enough as far as I'm concerned, don't get me wrong it's great the game has been fixed but it should work with 1mb chip. The game says extra chipmem detected so I'd guess it actually makes use of the extra memory whether it be better sound, gfx or reduced loading times. (does anyone actually know)?

The SPS version works with 1mb chip.

I hear what you're saying. Hopefully only reduced loading times but we obviously need to check...

Tonight I'll play around and see if I can get the fixed QTX version working with 1MB Chip RAM, otherwise I'll compare / play:

Sink or Swim (1993)(Zeppelin)[cr QTX][f level 9][t +5 SCX].adf (using Quickstart A500 1.3 ROM, ECS Agnus, 512 KB Chip RAM + 512 KB Slow RAM)

vs

Sink or Swim (1993)(Zeppelin).ipf (using Quickstart A500 1.3 ROM, ECS Agnus, 1 KB Chip RAM only)

Nothing on the back of the box saying that it's enhanced when using 1MB (or more):

http://hol.abime.net/1952/boxscan

It does mention "A500/PLUS/AA600/A1200"...

At work so can't listen to the sound but:

Loaded "Sink or Swim (1993)(Zeppelin)[cr QTX][f level 9][t +5 SCX].adf" using a "Quickstart A500 1.3 ROM, ECS Agnus, 512 KB Chip RAM + 512 KB Slow RAM" configuration.

Loaded "Sink or Swim (1993)(Zeppelin)(Disk 1 of 2).ipf" + "Sink or Swim (1993)(Zeppelin)(Disk 2 of 2).ipf" using a "Quickstart A1200 Basic non-expanded" configuration.

Took screenshots of the following and compared:
a) the "first title" screen.
b) "Sink or Swim text" screen.
c) "man getting into submarine" screen.
d) "1st level" screen.

Exactly the same results; no visual difference at all :agree

...will compare the sound between the 2 different sets / configurations when I'm home tonight ;)

Also went through the manual: http://hol.abime.net/1952/manual

Only mention of extra memory is on page 4 of the PDF but no details of what this would be used for:

That's not true; the 2 disk Flashtro release (then fixed by demoniac) is 100% and doesn't freeze after stage 20 (or anywhere for that matter) :agree

Here's our conversation over PM but I think there are also similar details buried in the Snow Bros thread:

1st:

demoniac quoted my post in the thread to start the PM:

2nd:

I can Zone it again when I get home if you like?

Ok:

... Snow Bros (1991)(Ocean)(Disk 1 of 2)[cr Flashtro][f NTSC][t +9 Flashtro][unreleased].adf [CRC 55CD9CD5]
... Snow Bros (1991)(Ocean)(Disk 2 of 2)[cr Flashtro][unreleased].adf [CRC B257173D]

"Snow Bros (1991)(Ocean)[cr Flashtro]_Working Set.rar" containing the above now in The Zone! ;)

Hmmm, I just tried the set above and the game always crashed just after the intro...

In my collection I use the same disk 1 & 3 as yours but this for disk 2 and all is good (no trainer though):

... Deep Core (1993)(I.C.E.)(Disk 2 of 3)[cr CLS].adf [CRC 90594D2C]
