REQ: Defender of the Crown 2 ISO (CD32 or CDTV)

10 July 2006, 21:53

Hello,

I have been looking for days for this ISO. I cannot find it anywhere.

Does anyone know where it might be obtained?

Thanks!

quahappy · 10 July 2006, 22:36

Don't know if what you are looking for can be found here?

btw... this is the CDTV version.

quahappy · 10 July 2006, 23:35

Hey up! Thought I'd give it a try....

Just downloaded Defender of the Crown 2 from http://www.amigames.de/gamescd32_2.php3 (they have 63 games there in total for download!)

Works fine in WinUAE CD32 emulation. Full music and speech too.

Well, I wouldn't say it works perfectly... Try "loosing a raid" or "rescuing a maiden"

More info here http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=20839

Anyway no solution as yet

You can still finish the game though

I'm really glad to know It worked OK in your WinUAE! I got a copy of the CD32 ISO from the edonkey network sometime ago, and It seemed to work fine... untill deep in the game it showed in (I use WinUAE 1.2) the same troubles that were already documented for the Project32 emulator.

In some action scenes you couldn't control the characters properly and audio and video lost synchronization. If the worse came to the worst, it would just crash.

That wasn't my only concern. I think I read somewhere that CD32 DotC was written with The Director... a very competent soft for multimedia presentations, but not precisely designed with strategy games in mind ^_^'' . Many tactical options from the original game were removed and conquering the whole territory was embarrasingly easy... and when you are almost done... it crashes (ayyyy!!). Worst of all, in my case it crashed the very same night I conquered the rescued lady heart (oouuch!!)

That said... the AGA images are so beautifully and superbly rendered, the soundtrack is so great and the extra animations look so nice that it's all worth the hassle. I definitively recommend the experience, above all if you're using the real CD32 machine, in wich case all these troubles are not supposed to happen at all!

Absolutely right DamienD. I've experienced the same problem as mentioned in other threads - speech frequency is extremely slow after losing a raid. Game freezes after rescuing a damsel in distress. I tried every configuration possible too in the hope that just one change in parameter would get it to work.

Damn.... just one of those stubborn games! Given how old this game is, we can only hope that "someone" will find a patch/fix.

Notes: Originally scheduled for release on CDTV, it is compatible with that format also

CD32 version compatible with CDTV?? CDTV emulation in WinUAE reads CDTV (CDROM emulation not yet working) - could this work without all the problems?

quahappy · 16 July 2006, 21:34

Anyone know of any other sites to obtain CD32 ISO's from as AmiGames download links are down.

I'm after Simon the Sorcerer 2.

btw.... just tried Defender of the Crown 2 in the latest WinUAE 1.3.0.

Problems still persist

Still too sad there is no music in the ported-to-Amiga version :/.

There is music, but i don't know why you can only hear it in ScummVM

@DDNI:

Yes, we know the amigames link. But all CD32 games are down at the moment.

I know there is music.. it's just not being played.

quahappy · 16 July 2006, 22:36

Thanks guys for the links!

It is a shame AmiGames links are down at the moment.

I have ScummVM too but can't trace StS2 anywhere for it now.

Ooops my bad, I got it there last night!!!

DamienD · 17 July 2006, 20:44

I originally grabbed Simon the Sorceror 2 from www.amigagames.de quite some time ago.

I can upload it to a file hosting website and post the link. It's about 75MB WinRAR'd

Mods, before I do this though can you let me know if this is ok? Not too sure if you can still purchase the game for Amiga

My neighbour is still selling illegal copies of this game.. so guess you can't upload it.

Kidding!

I notice this was never linked, does anybody have this CD32 game or a link to where I can get it? It's still not in the TOSEC.

Thanks.

Hmmm, since my post long ago I think we came to the conclusion that it's still sold, search EAB for other "Simon 2" threads... As I'm too lazy at the moment, if it can be proven that it's not still sold anywhere I'll upload it

Forgot to mention... It is available / has been dumped for TOSEC, see here for info

ImmortalA1000 · 30 April 2009, 22:28

Ahh ok I understand. I thought it was available for CD32 but I notice it is 68030 and 16mb on the Tosec link comments.

I think I have the last Tosec issued but it's not in that one so maybe next time around if it is included I will have a look.

Thanks for the response though
