Speedball2_v1.4a_JST.zip

Volumetric · 05 April 2009, 05:12

hey again folks, was lamenting the fact that speedball2 was only available in cd32 form for when i happened across this file at KGWHD's requested file section: Speedball2_v1.4a_JST.zip. After adding it to the database, i tried to run it but got the ol dos error 205. Have i missed something here? Cheers for your help

Ok, so im feeling round in the dark here, but i decided to take a look at the structure of the speedball2 whd zip and compare it with the speedball 1 whd, i found these files in speedball 2. first differences i notice was a lack of a *.slave file and also a disk.1 file, so i renamed the file with no extention to slave, and the file with the seemingly correct (880k) size (speedball2.d1 appropriately) to disk.1. Now it finds the slave, but declares it to be illegal, any thoughts from anyone would be appreciated

That's not really true

Galahad released the disk based WHDLoad version not long ago

I've uploaded the version to 'The Zone!' (look at the upper right corner). Here are the steps to access the zone : http://eab.abime.net/faq.php?faq=vb_...ezone_faq_item

no probs man, works like a charm. Was racking my brains all day trying to figure out how to get the hyperspin FE to disern the difference between a gamebase image and a WHD image, and it was all because of sb2 as its the only gamebase game i use. For some reason i cant deal with the CD32 version. It doesn't have the music, and it just doesn't feel right for some reason (the colors are subjective i guess). This solves all my problems, no need to use any gamebase roms now!! All nice and fast WHD! Cheers man, youve been my saviour over the last few days

Back indeed, although i only ever had an a500, so all this hardrive related stuff is quite foreign to me. Got it with 2 games (bards tale / goldrunner) and ageas draw. Good to have all this stuff back again on my HD, great memories (although ill be buggered if i can remember what that mindsweeper is all about lol). Cheers for your help again dude, much appreciated
