Tell me, for example, what is on disks 100, 200, 500 and 1000 and I'll see if I have the same CDs. Hopefully you've got some massive new collection that has all the MIA disks we want.

T_hairy_bootson · 01 October 2003, 18:20

the whole 100-199 folder is empty
200 Arnie (Zeppelin Games)
500 Corrupt
1000 Elle Slideshow "woo-hoo"

DPainter · 01 October 2003, 18:27

I can't find those in that order on any of my lists, so perhaps you do have the missing link CDs.

What are the file dates?

BippyM · 01 October 2003, 18:35

I can't find them either

I think you should get these distributed (Hint, Hint,

,

)

I havent got the whole collection yet only the first 2 discs will get the rest by end of next week

T_hairy_bootson · 01 October 2003, 21:38

any one know how to make a batch file for DMS2ADF??

for the files in the pic above

DPainter · 01 October 2003, 21:45

I think DMS2ADF is for MAC only. If you download XDMS you could use it this way in the commandline or a batch file:

XDMS U *.DMS

That would unpack all DMS files in the current folder to ADF files. At that point it's up to you whether to delete the DMS files, ZIP the ADFs, etc.

BippyM · 01 October 2003, 22:07

I have created an Amiga Dopus button to do it automatically :/

But it is quite complex to setup.. lemme know and I'll post the config and instructions for you

I tried out XDMS and that command worked like a charm

WTF is that incredibly ugly GUI in the first picture?
It really looks awful (ignoring jpg reduction etc), the actual 'useable area' of the file list windows looks like under 50%, what a bloody waste... all that crap down the left side, and the gadgets, don't start me on the gadgets...

Excuse me while I throw up in a bucket...

T_hairy_bootson · 02 October 2003, 01:03

hehe its called WinXP

the side gadgets can be turned off

EEEEEEKKK!!!

I'd heard it looked bad, but didn't realise it was that bad...

My comiserations to all XP sufferers...

May you see the light when OS4 is released and get a nice A1-XE or A1 Lite

adolescent · 02 October 2003, 21:37

You mean "if" Amiga OS4 is released. As of now it's not looking good. But, at least they got it to boot on the A1 finally.

I don't mean 'if', It's looking better than you know, can't say anything - NDA

As for the 'finally' it's been booting on an A1 for over a year... what they 'finally' got around to converting to ppc was the graphics.library (the last one btw).
