I am going to fill in all .IPF files from TOSEC [2016-01-03] when I get home tonight

If anyone has any of the other .IPF files from the later TOSEC versions though then please upload into your ~Uploads/<username> directory under folders for each update so I can move accordingly i.e:

... TOSEC Release (v2016-07-02)
... TOSEC Release (v2016-11-11)
... TOSEC Release (v2017-04-23)
... TOSEC Release (v2017-11-01)
... TOSEC Release (v2018-04-01)

The reason why I upped No-Intro instead of TOSEC is it contains some images not in TOSEC (yet, I assume).

Of course TOSEC has the box and disk scans, which No-Intro does not include.

If need be, should I upload the latest TOSEC sets as well ?
Commodore Amiga - Coverdisks - SPS (TOSEC-v2015-06-27)
Commodore Amiga - Educational - SPS (TOSEC-v2015-04-23)
Commodore Amiga - Games - SPS (TOSEC-v2018-03-05)

I think it's best to fill the TOSEC updates first.

With files you have that aren't currently in TOSEC we can put into a seperate directory.

Makes things easier to identify / manage

Commodore Amiga - Educational - SPS (TOSEC-v2015-04-23)
Commodore Amiga - Games - SPS (TOSEC-v2018-03-05)

I'm positive that I have the first 2 listed but not the last one so please go ahead with that

Retroplay · 29 June 2018, 18:24

Right, I'm on it.

DamienD · 29 June 2018, 21:39

Ok, home now and uploading

These are now complete:

/Commodore_Amiga/TOSEC [2016-01-03]
... Commodore Amiga - Coverdisks - SPS (TOSEC-v2015-06-27_CM)
... Commodore Amiga - Educational - SPS (TOSEC-v2015-04-23_CM)

Currently uploading the following, there are 2691 files, but unfortunately the internet connection where I'm currently living isn't the fastest:

/Commodore_Amiga/TOSEC [2016-01-03]
... Commodore Amiga - Games - SPS (TOSEC-v2015-06-27_CM)

Finally; I believe that I also have a collection of .IPF files that aren't currently in TOSEC... I will run everything I have through the latest DATs and then upload anything not identified afterwards...

Retroplay · 29 June 2018, 21:53

Did you have a look in my user upload folder ?

Everything TOSEC SPS is there.

Ok:

... Commodore Amiga - Games - SPS (TOSEC-v2015-06-27_CM) has 2691 files.
... Commodore Amiga - Games - SPS (TOSEC-v2018-03-05) has 2702 files.

So the difference is only 11 new files... just need to easily work out which ones these are and will then move to:

/Commodore_Amiga/TOSEC Updates/TOSEC Release (v2018-04-01) updates
... Commodore Amiga - Games - SPS (TOSEC-v2018-03-05)

DamienD · 30 June 2018, 09:17

The following has now completed uploading:

/Commodore_Amiga/TOSEC [2016-01-03]
... Commodore Amiga - Games - SPS (TOSEC-v2015-06-27_CM)

/Commodore_Amiga/TOSEC Updates/TOSEC Release (v2018-04-01) updates
... Commodore Amiga - Games - SPS (TOSEC-v2018-03-05)

Have worked out which are the 11 new files:

... Astate - La Malediction des Templiers (1990)(New Deal Productions)[2823].zip
... Bush Buck - A Global Treasure Hunt (1991)(Activision)[1962].zip
... Final Battle, The (1990)(PSS)[0259].zip
... Hostile Breed (1992)(Palace)[unreleased][3666].zip
... Last Action Hero (1994)(Psygnosis)[1043].zip
... Lords of Doom (1991)(Starbyte)[3080].zip
... P.P. Hammer and His Pneumatic Weapon (1991)(Demonware)[2809].zip
... Secret of the Silver Blades v1.0 (1991-06-12)(SSI)[0983].zip
... Spaceward Ho! v2.0 (1994-06-07)(New World Computing)(DE)[2791].zip
... Starblade (1990)(Palace)[2310].zip
... Street Racer (1997)(Guildhall)(AGA)[2884].zip

These have now been moved to:

/Commodore_Amiga/TOSEC Updates/TOSEC Release (v2018-04-01) updates
... Commodore Amiga - Games - SPS (TOSEC-v2018-03-05)

My next task is this:

Retroplay; do you think you could run all files from your "Amiga No-Intro numbered set (KS excluded)" through the latest SPS - TOSEC DATs so we know what's missing from TOSEC?

dirkies · 30 June 2018, 10:44

thanks DamienD, I had some IPF DVDs in the past but misplaced them, so now I guess I can rebuild my IPF collection!

DamienD · 30 June 2018, 10:50

Good stuff dirkies

@everyone; if you have any .IPFs not currently in these latest TOSEC DATs then please upload and make a note in this thread:

... Commodore Amiga - Coverdisks - SPS (TOSEC-v2015-06-27_CM)
... Commodore Amiga - Educational - SPS (TOSEC-v2015-04-23_CM)
... Commodore Amiga - Games - SPS (TOSEC-v2018-03-05)

Ian · 30 June 2018, 10:56

I have secretofsilverblades_Amiga_983

Just need to try and remember my details for the server lol

checking another folder I also have:

B.A.T.II_1635
IndianaJonesandtheFateofAtlantis_1639
OperationStealth_1654
Powerdrome_140

These could be for anything though so I will need to check later.

Thanks Ian, but that's already in Commodore Amiga - Games - SPS (TOSEC-v2018-03-05):

... Secret of the Silver Blades v1.0 (1991-06-12)(SSI)[0983].zip

To make sure whatever you have isn't already included in TOSEC; best to run everything through ClrMAMEPro and the latest DATs as listed in post #13

You've edited / added to your post

...please run through the DATs to be sure they aren't already there.

dirkies · 30 June 2018, 11:03

trying to get them now but despite using my personal account on the FTP, not the "ftp" anonymous one, it seems speed is still capped at 50KB/s. Gonna take a while to pull them in :-(

Ian · 30 June 2018, 11:03

Well if it's already included I need to ditch romvault as I scanned it and have the full set, yet this remains in my to sort directory lol

They are all there, I have checked the zips, they are all the art files that so some reason TOSEC have not included.

Anyway, back to Secret of the Silver Blades, my version and the one from TOSEC have different CRCs:

Be interesting to know which one is right if, I have purposely avoided downloading any unofficial IPFs so I have no reason to believe the file I have is incorrect.
