Need to WHDify: Leaderboard

mr_a500 · 12 September 2005, 16:12

...no, not World Class Leaderboard, the older Leaderboard.

Yes, there are much better golf games out there like Microprose Golf and even the WCLB, but I think Leaderboard was the first Amiga golf game. (displayed on the A500 box and in the manual)

The problem is that the game requires a hardware "dongle" to run and the cracked version doesn't work on my Amiga.

Is anyone interested in doing an HD install for this game for historical reasons?

This one?

Leader Board (1986)(U.S. Gold)[0523]

I loved Leader Board on the 8-bits, which is weird since I've no interest in golf in real life

I'll take a crack (hoho)

Hey thanks Girv.

I also have no interest whatsoever in real golf, but like the old golf games.

*BUMP*

Now that we have properly cracked Leaderboard and Leaderboard Tournament ADF's it would be a blast to have them WHDLOad-ified too ... any takers ?

StingRay · 23 April 2012, 20:52

I made patches for both games at the beginning of the year. They are not 100% working yet though (visual bugs).

Great news

Will be looking forward to this one. I like World Class Leaderboard (which is already whdfied) but for some reason I prefer the original game with the tournament data disk MUCH more

StingRay · 24 February 2013, 18:23

Had a look at it again this evening and got the game working correctly now.

Patch will most probably be released in the next days.

tomcat666 · 24 February 2013, 19:14

Great news sting! Will all controls be available from cd32 pad or will the keyboard still be necessary?

StingRay · 24 February 2013, 21:01

Since the game is fully mouse controlled I do not plan to add CD32 pad support. You can do anything with the mouse, at least I didn't find any need for the keyboard so far.

StingRay · 25 February 2013, 17:58

I have finished the patches for both games and just sent them to Wepl. They should appear on the WHDLoad site soon.

StingRay · 25 February 2013, 20:59

Both patches can now be found on the WHDLoad site.

Retroplay · 25 February 2013, 21:10

There's a minor error in the Readme for Leader Board.

- supports SPS 305 version

It should be 523, trivial stuff I know, but still..

Oh and thanks for the patch.

StingRay · 25 February 2013, 21:11

Indeed.

Thanks for reporting, I'll update the readme.

Patches work great so far.
