Yep, I'm not all that surprised......the disk looks a bit hammered. I found a spare original disk, so I will make a raw dump of that and send to you.

Thank you

Bumping this thread. Noticed that my original Battle Chess US release does not work right in WinUAE, it boots with corrupt graphics. If you write the ADF back to a disk and write protect it, it boots and runs fine on real hardware. But this other version (Which has DHX: for the HD Install icon) seems to work fine in WinUAE. Executable sizes are also different. Maybe it's a newer version? (Left is US version, right other version with DHX: Icon)

Here are the two versions:

We should launch a kickstarter to have Galahad, Stingray, Alpha One, and the rest of the best to write a book about crack scene memories.

This is really impressive, to remember details of games cracked so long ago. I barely remember stuff I've worked a couple of years ago

Now that's a book I would read.
