Retroplay's WHD uploads - Page 4

Dude77 · 24 September 2012, 22:32

If I copy the ZIP and LHA files to my CF and place it in my amiga can I use Dopus to extract the files or do I have to do them one by one in the SHELL window?

Retroplay · 24 September 2012, 22:49

Of course you can use Dopus to extract multiple archives, that's what I do.

ClassicWB comes with a nice Dopus setup, if you don't have it I recommend you try it out.

@Galahad - Thanks.

Dude77 · 24 September 2012, 23:02

Ok, thank you very much for the information.

liveevil · 27 September 2012, 20:51

Thanks for these continued updates, just one question,

Along with the files from 'Retroplay/WHDLoad_Updates' on the FTP, what other WHD installs do I need for a complete collection (finals not betas) ? Is it the whole collection on KillerGorilla's site ? and/or are there more ?

TheCyberDruid · 27 September 2012, 20:59

You'd indeed need KG's packs to make it 'complete'. No other sources needed though.

liveevil · 27 September 2012, 21:06

Thanks for the very quick reply. What happened to the idea about clrmame DAT files ? I see there was something posted by Retroplay but it says they were removed. I take it that all the installs on KG's page work with WHDLOAD v17 (I don't have a key but I assume the mojority work without one?), i'm quite new to the WHDLOAD part of Amiga retro.

TheCyberDruid · 27 September 2012, 21:15

There are a few installs that don't work with v17, but that's not KG's fault

Usually bug reports are made on http://mantis.whdload.de/ and when a fixed slave is released, Retroplay will install it and put it on the file server. Don't worry about it though and just grab them for now as there are only a very few that don't work with v17

Edit: Again, most installs work without a key, but some will have features that are disabled or simply won't work at all. Have a look for yourself, but it's a good idea to spend the few quid to get the key

liveevil · 27 September 2012, 21:35

Thanks for the info. Just one more thing, I know GamebaseAmiga is very out of date so I was looking at ClassicWB. Do you know if the Screenshot previews for the WHDLoad games (iGame ?) are updated and know of a site to download them ?

I need to get my Amiga 1200 out of the loft sometime.

TheCyberDruid · 27 September 2012, 21:45

I don't know of any new iGame screenshots for Retroplay's updates, sorry.

liveevil · 28 September 2012, 21:44

Is there a new or easy way to play these in emulation ? Gamebase Amiga only supports it's own list of games (I like WHDRun but it leaves all the unzipped files in the GBGame directory), I tried ClassicWB but you have to unzip all the files into the designated directory of iGame and end up with thousands !!

Is there a newer version of WHDRun that I can use with WinUAE and not need GameBase Amiga ?? Are there any other options ?

HOL2001 · 28 September 2012, 22:47

Something is weird here.
When I load GreatGianaSisters_v1.4_2945.lha into my system shown im my Sig I can't jump.
With version 1.3 it still works fine...
Means when pushing the Joystick upwards, there is no reaction.
Tried that with different Joysticks -> Same
Tried that in Emulator -> works!
Can anybody else copy that?

TheCyberDruid · 28 September 2012, 23:00

Have you checked if any tooltypes for a second button to jump are set?

Retroplay · 29 September 2012, 00:23

I can't jump either, only button 2 works as jump (Wico Red Ball joystick in my case).
Works in WinUAE, not on real Amiga.

[edit]
Bug reported to Psygore.

Toni Wilen · 29 September 2012, 11:27

Does emulator behavior change if you change GamePorts panel joystick type to Gamepad?

Retroplay · 29 September 2012, 11:33

No it doesn't make any difference.

brolly · 01 October 2012, 06:23

I can't find installs for these games:
Nigel Mansell's World Championship (Non-AGA)
Oscar (Non-AGA)
Top Gear 2 (AGA)

Perhaps you missed them when creating the installs? There are only AGA installs for the first 2 and the ECS install for Top Gear 2. And I think these were all on KGs packs already.

Retroplay · 01 October 2012, 12:05

Oscar (OCS/ECS) is not supported by the WHD install.

Nigel Mansell (OCS/ECS) & Top Gear (AGA) both have slave errors.
http://kg.whdownload.com/kgwhd/errors.php

brolly · 01 October 2012, 13:04

Ah that explains it then, thanks.
About Oscar I wasn't sure, the readme mentions 2 different floppy versions and hol mentions a WHD install for the ECS/OCS version, so I guess that info should be corrected at hol.

rare_j · 03 October 2012, 23:00

Hi Retroplay,
In AttackOfTheGreenSmellyAliensFromPlanet27b6_v1.0.zip the default tool for Instructions.info is AmigaPower14b:MuchMore
Probably a duff link on most people's systems!
Thanks

Game replaced.
Now use MultiView as default tool.

Did anyone get Paranoia Complex to work? It loads for a few seconds then gives me the A1200 disk insert screen.

Retroplay · 06 October 2012, 23:46

Loads and works fine here.

What about Cyber World, have you tried that ?
It's the same game with a different name.

alkis21 · 07 October 2012, 13:23

That one gives me a black screen.

Retroplay · 07 October 2012, 13:50

I have replaced CyberWorld & Paranoia Complex on the FTP with a version installed using SPS 2603 & 3038.

Also the german version is added (SPS 2162).

Both work for me, if they still don't work for you, I suggest you contact Abaddon about the issue.

Make sure cycle exact is ticked if using WinUAE, it can be a little sketchy without it.

alkis21 · 07 October 2012, 16:28

I got it to work by removing the Preload size option. Thank you anyway!

Will there be an official bug fixed 1.5 release of Great Giana Sisters?

Great work Retroplay!
Is anyone making batch files to delete outdated packs from KG's set?
Going through them all and removing older versions manually kinda sucks

fgh · 06 November 2012, 13:52

Oh well, got through the list finally..

Couple of small comments:
- LeisureSuitLarry_v1.3-B_0690 is actually Larry 3
- FightinSpirit_v1.1_CD32.zip is still on the server next to v1.2

Thanks for reporting.

Larry 3 reinstalled from ipf and lha'ed & Fighting Spirit v1.1 deleted.

HOL2001 · 07 November 2012, 08:27

What does the "-B" mean in "LeisureSuitLarry_v1.3-B_0690"?
Does it mean "Beta"?

Nah it's just a minor update to v1.3.

Quote:

version 1.3-B (27.07.10)
- Fixed install script to support disk 5 (Thanks Mad-Matt@EAB)

HOL2001 · 07 November 2012, 13:24

Ah, OK!

fatbob_gb · 07 November 2012, 13:33

Would it be possible for the Killing Game Show to be redumped - the original KillerGorilla pack is missing the "kgshigh" file.

Retroplay: Rugby The World Cup WHDLoad (SPS 3730 version) in the Zone for you. I couldn't seem to upload to Magix FTP myself (permission denied error).

(And before anyone asks, 3730 is not a misprint, that ID has been pre-allocated for the game by the SPS team!)

Retroplay · 07 December 2012, 12:41

Thanks a lot Codetapper.

Added to WHDLoad_Updates/Games/Final_installs/ now.

djcasey · 16 December 2012, 11:40

is there any dat file for clrmame pro to make that collection uptodate

Retroplay · 16 December 2012, 12:39

No.
