Codetapper, yer flippin' brilliant! Hopefully I'll be able to get my A2k jacked in this weekend and we can add some more Codemasters rarities to the machine... I didn't know there was already a WHD version...it's a full-time job keeping up with what's been WHD'd!

Hey fiath...now that you mention it, do you have any of the other standalone MIA Codemaster games that you'd be willing to MFMWARP for Codetapper to make adf's (and/or WHDloads) of? I know it's like a reverse move for you, but with such a large collection, it's worth a shot!

And of course, thanks to blackcornflake for the image!

I did have a brief look, but I didn't see anything (of my disks, I can't convert other peoples dumps - I would know how to start for one thing ) but then I missed the Dizzy one...

I will try to have a better look later - I am a bit busy right now... If I forget - please remind me in a week or so.

Harpoon Set 2: North Atlantic (1990/Three-Sixty)

I'm pretty sure this is already in your collection, Twist....

Hmmm...been so long since I had that on there that I can't remember why it's there. I do know that the TOSEC 4 disk set is (I'm pretty certain) the Signature Series, which includes the scenario disk from my MIA here. So with that, you are correct! List updated.

But since we are back here, I will plug that I've added a few titles to the list over time, plus I popped in a few last night (Rebel Racer, Börsen Fieber, Butler James, etc.) I'll be updating this list further this week with entries from the HOL DBS MIA LST...erm, list. In the process, even more titles will end up here on this MIA, as well as the missing DBS list, so this list is still growing.

Is anyone interested in helping us expand this listing to the GAEB? I just bet there's some fanatics over there that can fill some of these gaps. I have an account there, but I don't speak enough German to actually delve into posting there.

Anyhow, I will post some more images to this thread this week, as well.

You do remember that Dragon Lord is the US version of Dragon's Breath, don't you?
I think that does explain why Disk 2 doesn't work

Smile Magic Island

Hi, Twistin'

After reading through your MIA list and browsing my HDD, I found that in my possession is Magic Island (czech dungeon) Is it the game you are looking for?

Mmm...I do realize that it's the US version, but I don't believe this is the same thing. I may be wrong, but I have read before that the US version is not copy-protected, only manual lookup.

That's very possible, I have very limited info on this game, so even if it's not the same, I am interested! TIA!

Maybe the "problem" could be solved by upping Dragon Lord to the zone, and Toni's taking a look what makes the emulator refuse Disk 2.
(Unless it doesn't work on the real thing either, which is not proved up to now. This MUST be tested by a US guy, because a US version is NTSC, which wouldn't work on my PAL A500!)

Unless it can be booted in NTSC. For years I used a PAL booter to run PAL games on my (then) NTSC box. All of those booters claimed to boot in both directions. But I realize that not everything works with this method (but 99.9% did!)

I'll up that to the Zone tonight.

@Twistin'

Sorry for long delay. I've found some pictures of this game (Magic Island) released in 1995 by Arda Team / Signum and cracked by LSA.






Gimme a word if you are still interested

@^scrye^
Thanks so much for the upper. I think I get to go home early from work tonight, so I'll check it out (I actually started back working on my MIA dir this weekend, so this is good timing!)

@Joo
You make a good impression on your first post! Thanks a bunch, daddy-o! And welcome to the coolest Amiga message board on the planet!

Looking for a couple of titles for HOL stuff. Already added them to the list, but this is to attract more attention to these:

On Safari
Pretty certain this is an alternate title for Safari Guns.

Suicide Mission
1988/MicroValue


TIA!

Twistin' here are a few more, probably uploaded by me before, but just in case... Surely there are people on this board who can knock off more MIA titles. They just need to catch the sickness and start searching...

Quatromania
Football Tactician 2 - The Scottish League
Tetrix Metallica
City of Death

Yes, I am a bloody sod and have managed to let other stuff obstruct me from finalizing the remainder of my MIA dir. For the record, when I get fills from my MIA, I copy them to a dir (usually with uploader info attached, although I have failed at this too many times) and then I boot up said disk(s), rename TOSEC-style, then update the master list. How I have managed to let finishing this task elude me for so long is anybody's guess, but it will be done after work tonight - if only out of the joy of seeing you posting again!
