Nice credits. Is CD32load part of the OS or what ?

Amazing stuff. I do wonder how trivial it would be to implement support for PSX adapters?

This may sound like a silly question, but is there any particular advantage to using the WHDized floppy versions of Magicland, Spellbound, Yolkfolk and Fantastic over the actual, 1-filed CD³² versions from The Big Six?

Sorry for the peak of need for recognition! Of course CD32Load is part of your OS now.

You might get away with adding "Dizzy The Ultimate Cartoon Adventure" I remember there was a pretty fast ZX Spectrum emulator on aminet that could run a 020.

Sadly the first game never got ported to the Amiga/ST

Plus there is of course the two NES Dizzy games that would be great if they got ported in the future that could be added also. Obviously alot of work to port those in the same way Solomans Key was.
Don't forget about the more-recently unearthed NES game Wonderland Dizzy in that case!

@AmigaJay have a button on the main menu for the "Big Six", and then use the original CD32 launcher program for those games

Has anyone given thought to using the Reality Engine for a remake of Dizzy 1 etc? I'm not sure how flexible it is but I know it has a module specifically for Dizzy clones.

fair enough!

Regarding CD Audio, ImgBurn is a great tool for making CUE files (just drag your ISO on to the wizard, and then the MP3/WAV files, and then you're set).

Graphics from Yolkfolk.com

Hi.
While I fully welcome the conversion of the Dizzy series to CD32.
Have you credited myself as the creator of the images you have used for the menu?
They have more than a striking resemblance to http://yolkfolk.com/playdizzy/

Many Thanks

Andrew.

Nice to see Yolkfolk getting a nod too
I was a massive Dizzy fan and remember playing on the first Dizzy on the Spectrum.So this compilation was a welcome addition for my cd32 collection.Thanks for all the work from everyone involved.

Is there any way of pointing the Fantastic Dizzy RAM save to the NVRAM (or elsewhere) instead?

Everytime I load this on my CD32 it goes to the menu just fine but no matter which game I select it takes ages to load, then throws up a black screen and CD32 error message. Not been able to get it load anything, did try burning it on a different type of CD but same problem.
