DamienD's WinUAE Collection

[DamienD]

I've slightly updated the configuration file for Heretic & Hexen; as Hexen was crashing for me 9 times out of 10 with WinUAE 4.4.0 beta 3.

Things are much better now i.e. 2 crashes out of 30 tries, so please just download / extract the attached into "C:\WinUAE"

Seems I was so busy testing "Hexen" and getting a stable configuration, as it's the more resource hungry game... that I forgot to test "Heretic"...

With this new configuration, "Heretic" wouldn't even start:



Luckily just adding an FPU solved the issue and doesn't cause any problems with "Hexen"

Many thanks to ransom1122 for bringing this to my attention

So, please just download / extract the new configuration to "C:\WinUAE".

After the awesome discovery of the unreleased demo of:

• DragonSlayer - Starbyte CDTV Demo
• Dragon Slayer from Linel?

I spent some time today analysing the CD image and made a cool .HDF, that allows you to play most of the game

Menu:



<F1> - Introduction:



...followed by the Starbyte logo (taken from floppy games; unravels and speech "Starbyte software presents"):



...then the Introduction.


<F2> - Game:



...followed by the Starbyte logo (taken from floppy games; unravels and speech "Starbyte software presents"):

...then the Game.

So, to enjoy this new finding, please just download / extract to "C:\WinUAE"

So, just download / extract the attached into "C:\WinUAE"

This collection sounds great - I'd love to find something to kickstart my Amiga collection, as I just got an A500 and got it working last week.

I'm a little confused on how to get it... do I need to PM someone for access?

Staff?

They're your imaginary staff.

Wow. This is GREAT!

First, I got through the downloads last night. I spent the $5 on a month of Mega, so I could download thorugh the data cap. Downloading is also MUCH faster, that way, as I could get a 500MB chunk in seconds.

I installed the pack last night, and it installs super-easy. I just ran the Setup, and everything "just worked." I am not sure what impact this will have on my existing WinUAE configs, but I'll deal with that later (probably by creating a folder for the game pack games.) I haven't spent a whole lot of time with it yet, but I was able to boot Lemmings up, and now there are thousands of games I can go through to catch up on the Amiga gaming scene.


JDownloader is definitely a good tool for grabbing the files. If I could make a suggestion - it would be nice to have a single text file that has all of the URLs in one block of text. Stored that way, it's super easy to paste a block of text into JDownloader and then just let it run. Amusingly, Mega flags JDownloader as "suspicious" every time I use it. That's not really a problem, as they don't do anything about it, but I find it amusing that I get an email every time.

Thanks, Damien. I definitely appreciate all of your hard work!
