So far about 20 people have donated totalling around £280; thank you kindly for this I estimate that over 650 people now have my collection; well, people who I've shared the URLs with anyway... <tough crowd> So, as mentioned here, I've now donated €300 to RCK ...I think at the moment RCK needs this the most for investment in "abime.net" hosting infrastructure / running costs and hopefully this will assist with reducing: a) Database errors. b) Server too busy messages.

Following on from this thread: Alien Breed 3D2 - Xenium Core: level 12
...I've now created a .HDF for this game Running out of space in my allowed quota, so grab the file from the EAB File Server under /~Uploads/DamienD/Collection. Just extract into "C:\WinUAE". Last edited by DamienD; 17 February 2018 at 11:35. |

Time for another update / fix...
For years I've been using the "Sword of Sodan (1988)(Discovery)[cr QTX][t +2 MFC]" set. I gave a friend at work my collection as he also loves / remembers the Amiga Yesterday he mentioned that he finished "Sword of Sodan" but noticed the final screens are missing ...just like demoniac mentioned here back in 2006: Sword of Sodan (working 4 disks version) Anyway, tonight we tested all remaining sets and had a "play off" i.e. he tested one set and I tested the other until completion: a) Sword of Sodan (1988)(Discovery)[cr Ackerlight][t +2 Ackerlight] b) Sword of Sodan (1988)(Discovery)[cr CBC][t +1 CBC] Done, so in conclusion, the only fully working set is b) So, do the following:

Received a PM from Magic today, not sure why he didn't just post in the thread

Something like this on a real Amiga; yeah, probably a few different things in varying states. Controllers; personally I use my wireless Xbox 360 ones but also have wired Xbox (better response). You can use whatever joystick /s Windows recognises. Amiga Forever; good riddance. Last edited by DamienD; 18 February 2018 at 22:03. |

Heya Sinphaltimus,
Thank you for putting up an additional video showing how my collection should look in regards to correct aspect ratio and also letting people know how to change scaling via your video card Adding new games; at the moment I'm taking a bit of a rest until things calm down a bit... Usually I try to add 30 - 50 games a week; will get back to it soon |

Any time.
Of all the different configs I've tried over the years, (WHDLoad, straight up ADFs, etc..) your collection got me back into Amiga gaming. So much fun, Thank you for that. None of the other "collections" get me in and out of a game as fast as your collection. And none of the others seem to be filled with 100% working games. I have not had any issues with yours at all. Everything I want to play, just works. |

I've had a good go through your collection now and there are some great custom games in there, thanks. One thing that puzzles me though with quite a few of the replies in this thread. Lot's of people saying things like 'they've never had a click and run game collection with screenshots until now', I take it nearly no-one in this thread has ever heard of Gamebase Amiga which has been available for years with multiple screenshots, boxart & game info ? Anyway, thanks again.

My friend Belgarath has put the same amount of time in as I have (if not more) and Gamebase Amiga has many more features, is way more complex / mature. Also, don't forget that Belgarath and myself have been helping each other out for over a decade now in relation to the best / verified files to be used. That's why my name is listed here. Anyway, a few advantages of my collection over Gamebase Amiga or FS-UAE Arcade, the big one in my opinion being b): a) Works straight out of the box; no need to setup / configure, download / add different parts / add-ons etc. b) Anyone can easily add in their own desired games that I've missed, take title / screenshots to make it their own; as it's a simple setup that all should be familiar with. c) There are many files in my collection that you won't find elsewhere like [AmigaCD] --> .HDFs, custom .ADFs created by me etc. Last edited by DamienD; 19 February 2018 at 22:40. |

Just for the record, to compare and contrast... I have heard of it but never gave it a try - Here's why, right on the first page. "This is the GameBase Amiga project. GameBase Amiga is a collection of data and scripts to be used with the GameBase emulator frontend." My first thought was "Another emulator to install and configure? A Front-End? Scripts?" - It was and still is more effort than I'd like to put forth so I settled for preconfigured WHDLoad hdfs for winUAE. Those were easier to setup I thought and with little effort, they seemed to be. But they didn't always deliver when I went game exploring. Nothing at all against all the other great projects or Gamebase Amiga, this particular issue with me alone was really about "How badly do I want to go through setting up Amiga Gaming to do it?" It was never "badly enough" to even try. Then this came around and took the effort away. I showed my appreciation, continue to enjoy it and am finally feeling like Amiga Gaming is definitely something I can get into again. Started with a few of my old favorites, now exploring never before played games. Maybe Gamebase Amiga is the greatest collection setup with the greatest front end with everything in it anyone could ever need. I dunno. The setup and download part of it put me off from the get go. Maybe it's easier than I presumed, I don't know. When I read Front end, GameBase Emulator, etc... I didn't really want to try. Last edited by Sinphaltimus; 19 February 2018 at 21:51. Reason: changed this "... definitely something I can get into." to this " definitely something I can get into again." |

before reading all 20 pages of this thread i rather ask directly before i download:
can i install this collection manually? don't want to mess with my installed winuae. so no "foreign" registry setting or similar not matching my configuration of winuae. can i somehow change all configurations from fullscreen to full-window at once? due to multi monitor i can't use fullscreen in winuae, messing up icons and more. |

unfortunately havent' been able to find anything regarding full-window. (remove all fullscreen entries and replace it with full-window). running anything in fullscreen other than 1080p resolution will mess up desktop. so no fullscreen. only full-window (borderless window).
