English Amiga Board - View Single Post - "Unofficial" Update Packs

DamienD · 01 August 2019, 22:05

I know I said I wouldn't... but I've just spent the last 3 hours making changes to Gzegzolka's "unofficial" update pack to bring it in line with my standards.

Things that I undertook:

Renamed some configuration files to be consistent.
Recreated / setup all configuration files from scratch which fixed:

... setting of "Fullscreen".
... setting of either a "640x480" or "720x576" resolution.
... making sure no "old game" inserted disks or disk swapper slots were populated.
... making sure no weird "custom" game port / inputs were set.

Centered all title / screenshots properly, or sometimes took new ones.
Replaced "Wolfchild" demo with the self-booting .ADF that I created.
Added "Fears" first demo with the self-booting .ADF that I created.
Added "Marvin's Marvellous Adventure" demo which I ripped from a CD32 compilation, setup on a .HDF and got the intro running from hard drive.
Deleted the <gamedir> "Blork" from Gzegzolka's original pack; which had no associated configuration file and is already in my main collection.
Configuration files are now extracted to "C:\WinUAE\Configurations\Unofficial" to keep separate from my main collection.
<gamedirs> are now extracted to "C:\WinUAE\Games\Unofficial" to keep separate from my main collection.
Other stuff that I forgot to document.
