You're right Sinphaltimus

...thread cleaned again.

i continue to thinking. your project should be stay in "Project WinUAE".
Mage it was a Front-End to sobstitute Gamebase as exactly written here. In this section you see only gameBase/Mage Projects.

DamienD · 27 February 2018, 19:30

Oh god, last time I mention this to you Seiya...

This is not only a *GameBase* section; it's about collections...

ma693541 · 27 February 2018, 22:23

From me, ma693541: I have done stupid things here on EAB, that could have lead to ban of my membership here, but I can tell you all this: Without people like RCK, Toni Wilen, DamienD and others people holding the Amiga Community alive with sites like, EAB, making an emulator, WinUAE, or putting a huge game collection together, DamienD's WinUAE Collection. Not forgetting Turran and DannyBoy's, FTP-Servers. Retroplay's WHDLoad Collection and many other's work and sites. So if you like a site, program, tool, utility or a game collection, stop whining about people asking for a small donation for the work they have done, just donate, respect their work and also respect if they tell that their work shall not be spread. A small example; DamienD ask politely €20 EURO for his collection and if 500 people have his collection, first timers here at EAB, just registrate, download the collection and then vanish from EAB without giving some back, that's SAD. Think of it, €1000 EURO to improve your favorite site, program, tool, utility or keep the FTP-Servers up and running. I don't know DamienD personally, but I know his a man for his words and he does a h.ll of a job to help out other's. RESPECT. Sorry for this long post.

Its a such a shame this great project came to this!
Luckily I kept up to date with all the updates.
Keep your chin up DamienD Don't let the B****** grind you down!

malko · 27 February 2018, 23:51

@Damien : A small thumbnail to let you know that your collection is running fine on a bare & poor laptop

.
Except for the impossibility to resize the WinUAE GUI to fit this laptop config (WinUAE GUI is too big (or is it the screen that is to small ?)

), everything is wonderful !

Load WinUAE, chooooooooooooooose (takes time as so many good games are present

), double click and enjoy

You have done a crazy but perfect job !! Thanks again for this !!!

Edit: new picture & changed hosting site as 'tinypic' is closing down

DamienD · 28 February 2018, 01:34

Thanks my friends; at this current time I really need all the support / appreciation you've just given

To be totally truthful; I told my fellow Global Moderators just yesterday that maybe it's time for me to disappear again for a few years, and actually, maybe not ever return... as at the moment, I'm totally worn out and fed up with shite going on

I've given sooooo much to this Amiga community for well over a decade now; and in my time of need, there's not really many sticking up for me.

Sinphaltimus · 28 February 2018, 02:12

Wouldn't you just be punishing yourself then? Do what you love to do because you love to do it. Don't respond to or counter attack opposition. That to me is the biggest punishment to those who would otherwise ruin your slack. Take your slack back. Be like water and find the path of least resistance to keep flowing, if in this case it means leaving a community you enjoy supporting because you're not feeling the love, that's your choice and your decision alone to make. But don't let it be a self imposed punishment. Unless you're into that sort of thing. But that's a topic for a completely different forum.

If you ask me, you need "Bob" in your life. Because everyone does.

Don't let the bastards get you down DD.

And please don't disappear again, you are a pillar of the EAB community!

chip · 28 February 2018, 04:41

No DamienD, don't disappear again, please

I really like the passion you put in things you do

And much before this your project, you always replied to my private messages in a such kind way that i surely think you are a really nice person

SO, APPRECIATE PEOPLE WHO CAN BE APPRECIATED, PLEASE

And especially, this is fun for all of us, i guess

MUST BE FUN AGAIN, DON'T LET IT TURN INTO TRAGEDY

Hope my words can help in some way

Hummm... It's understandable. Nevertheless remember what you have said to all others members who have faced fools's pressure/bad comments (just one example here

and there are plenty others

). Take back these words full of wisdom as they also apply to you !

You are appreciated, your work is appreciated. So it's an holly day ! (where is the sun icon on the right advanced pannel ?? ).

Leave fools comment behind you. They do not deserve that you feed them by replying...

Not everybody is writing their support here, but I am convinced that there is more people supporting you than you may think

.
As written by many "there are fools everywhere", so if you need go on holidays, go and charge your batteries

. And don't forget to return with your humour, talent for repartee, ideas and personality !

Hmmm, is that a netbook you're running this on? What's the maximum resolution?

Resizing the GUI, try doing this:

Start the registry and navigate to [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Arabuusimiehet\WinUAE].
For this DWORD value "GUIResize", change from "0" --> "1".

You should now be able to resize the GUI

Allen1 · 28 February 2018, 14:01

Hi Damien,

although I don't log on or post very often, I do read the comments virtually every day and I like your posts and even tried and played with some of your games in the last few months. This place wouldn't be the same without you so please don't let the bast*ards get you down or stop you from being the man we know and like.

All the best M8 and don't you dare go away

Come on, you can't let those bastards think they won, you're way more better than that.

I completely agree with Sinphaltimus, just do what you love to do because you love to do it

Works great ! Thank you !

As you can see now the GUI fits the screen resolution (1200x600) of this Netbook.

Hello! I hope this is the right forum for this. I have discovered a torrent on a website and the description linked me to here. The torrent's name was <snip> and i found it on <snip>, a public torrent site. Here is a screenshot of it:

<snip>

I'm not sure if it is supposed to be there, but even though it says 0 seeders, i personally see 3 seeders and i get good speed! I just wanted to tell you how grateful i am for this collection! I really like it, good job!

Greetings from Lithuania!

AOxygen.

DamienD · 28 February 2018, 21:55

@AOxygen; thanks for pointing that out, appreciate man

...no it's definitely not supposed to be there; or on any other torrent site for that matter

Edited your post though as it means lamers reading this thread will then see "exactly" what to search for / where to get from on a public site.

Hmmm, it's going to be an issue for me to try and get that removed from there though...

Ooh okay, i thought it was okay sharing it and all, since it says that in the description. "First things first: KEEP CIRCULATING THE ROMS!
Feel free to share this archive wherever you like to keep the AMIGA spirit alive!
- DO NOT SELL THIS COMPILATION. RESPECT THE DEVELOPERS AND PUBLISHERS! -" so i thought it was okay

I was curious and went to... and i looked there for this. And i did find it there, too.

Those are not my words

...the last 2 sentences are cool though; of course I have and continue to keep the Amiga spirit alive for over a decade now

Please read the first two posts in this thread and then specifically these
