Piracy On The High Seas

viddi · 06 May 2012, 21:23

Hey ho WHDload wizards,

there is no WHDload installer available for "Piracy On The High Seas".

You can find ADFs of my original copy in the Zone!
It would be awesome to see an install some time soon...

Thank you very much in advance.

Started a patch for this very game some months ago. No idea if/when I'll finish it though.

Oh, I didn´t know that!

Thanks for your efforts so far.

Just for the record: it uses the exact same system software that I wrote for Abandoned Places 2, so you might be able to work out a patch based on that.

Any progress here.
Would like to know, if this Original has any issue when accessing track 40.
It seems, that important DATA are lost, because of dos-copying Disk 1.
Someone played the whole game?

You dont want to open your sealed Original, i suppose?
Would like to know, if it has the same DISK 1.

I will open it once i go back at my parents

No pb !

I can imagine opening a sealed mint box must break your heart.
Am I right ?

dlfrsilver · 13 October 2012, 14:20

no it's not the case. I'm not buying games to see them rot

TCD · 13 October 2012, 14:22

That's the spirit

Retroplay · 13 October 2012, 14:23

That's the spirit.

[edit]
TCD beat me to it.

Then you were waiting for this very moment

It would be nice to see a thread of "sealed" Amiga games!

Djay · 13 October 2012, 18:49

Yeah good idea...

I have a sealed copy of frontier elite 2 and one mint copy and one not so good

mai · 18 October 2012, 17:52

Probably all original Disks 1 of "Piracy on the High Seas" have this issue.

dlfrsilver · 18 October 2012, 18:20

what is the exact issue ?

Overwritten Data in Rootblock 880, caused by a dos-copy on a NDOS disk, probably a fault by the developer/publisher.
I dont know, if this fault is noticable when playing the whole game.
