Beyond Dark Castle, can you help me ? - Page 2

I hate to have to bother you guys, but this is the only place that I've seen a remote chance of getting disk versions of Beyond Dark Castle. I've been looking for this game for ages, but it's available NOWHERE... except bttr, but that's a whdload version, which I can't and/or don't know how to use when using an emulator... Sadly I don't have an original Amiga anymore.

can someone help me out? I would be very grateful.

Warped disk version in the Zone. Will decompress to disks on a real Amiga. Decompression program is available on Aminet (UnWarp or something like that) Let me know if you can't find it and I'll try and find my copy.

HUH?

He says he has no real Amiga anymore and you send him a WARPED disk?

@gimbal extended ADFs reuploaded to the zone.

Great! Thanks a lot!

[ edit ]
Aaah. Works perfectly. It's even the exact same cracked version I had on my Amiga.

Hi peoples,

I have the original disks of this game that I'm trying to play on my Amiga.

However I don't have the manual and need the codes from the manual to start the game

Does anyone here have the manual, or a link to somewhere I could download it? I've Googled my butt off but found nothing so far

PZ.

Fingerlickin_B · 29 October 2006, 11:29

Did more searching today and still nothing

Fingerlickin_B · 09 November 2006, 10:38

Anyone?

Did you try the WHDLoad install?

Fingerlickin_B · 09 November 2006, 12:33

I'm using an A500, not an emulator...is that for an emulator?

Excuse me, but I'm new

It's a "patch" that installs the game to hard drive, removes manual protection etc. ... but do you have a hard drive?

Hello Fingerlickin_B,

I put extended ADF files of Beyond Dark Castle in The Zone! for you

Can't remember where I got these from originally though

Don't get me wrong Damien, I am VERY, VERY grateful for that, but I have the disks anyway, just need the codes to play the game.

I'm sure the version you put up doesn't need the codes, but I'm not able to transfer from my PC to Amiga just yet...bought some software, but it's buggered and won't load properly

On another note, that figurine (sp?) in your avatar looks a lot like Manic from one of my favourite C-64 games Manic In Monsterland...is it, and where on earth did you get it?

Ooops, sorry. Read the complete thread about a week ago and forgot that you mentioned you're using a real Amiga and need the codes.

Unfortunately there is no way to transfer these to floppy disks for use on a real Amiga

As you've been informed, it's not. But it's Mayhem in Monsterland you're thinking of

Hahaha, oops, too many beers for me last night...
