Diskmags: "Cyberpunk Now!" #1; "Abnormalia" #4...

I'm trying to find complete sets of some of the weirder/more niche diskmags. In many cases I can find quite a few, but not all.

So, these are the ones I know I'm missing because there's a gap in the numbers, although there might be other cases where the "last" issue I have isn't really the last...

Cyberpunk Now!: #1

Abnormalia: #4

Beyond Sanit-E: #2

Thing: #2, #4, #6, #8 to #15

ZX Files (not a typo, it's for ZX Spectrum fans): #4 does exist in 17Bit's library -- but it has a checksum error and won't boot!! Does anyone have a fixed version...?

UFO: Finding the Truth: #2

Huge thanks for any help... also if you know of any other weird/niche diskmags I might not have heard of, please do mention them too!

UFO: Finding the Truth: #2
Hi,

I am a barrister in England with an interest in UFOs. As a small part of an effort to reduce the amount of time wasted reinventing the wheel in this subject, I am currently trying to preserve and convert some old CDs from the 1980s-1990s (and even Amiga floppies...) containing UFO text files.

So, I have "UFO : Finding the Truth : #3" and a few other UFO Amiga floppies, including "Project UFO" (and converted the text files on them to searchable PDF archives).

In relation to "UFO : Finding the Truth #2" which you mention looking for, I think it may be at the link below. I know that the URL refers to #1, but the heading in the introductory text file within the relevant ADF file actually refers to #2 in the heading and also says "Welcome to U.F.O FINDING THE TRUTH 2".

If you already have "UFO : Finding the Truth #1" already (which, from your post, I assume is the case...) hopefully you can let me know if the link below is indeed for #1 or #2 - and, ideally, share an ADF file of "UFO Finding the truth 1" via Wetransfer...
https://archive.org/details/ufo-finding-the-truth-1

I assume you already have "Ufo Finding The Truth 3", which is at:
https://archive.org/details/ufo-finding-the-truth-3

(There are quite a few ADF files of other Amiga diskmags on archive.org, which you can access via the above links).

Hope this helps.

Thanks for your message - unfortunately it turns out I only have the same as the ones on archive.org. If I do find the real issue #1, I will let you know.

Your preservation effort sounds great, good luck with it. Is it public/going to be made public?

Hi,

I have a few UFO and other documents based disks based on gravity, advanced tech, abductions etc. I will upload to my site for you, probably tomorrow (under Diskmags).
