Cruise for a Corpse (original disks)

UrBi · 01 December 2018, 09:24

Hello

I'm looking for original disks (not cracked) of this game.

Italian and Spanish version.

http://hol.abime.net/3134

Anybody have them ?

Regards,

UrBi

I have original installed for italian and spanish. I have to dig out the disk images now ...

I wonder why you need this. Do you really like entering the protection each time?

UrBi · 01 December 2018, 15:18

I also like to have original versions of games

jotd · 01 December 2018, 16:19

those don't have IPF releases

must have them somewhere, hope I kept them.

lesta_smsc · 01 December 2018, 16:52

I may have the original. Can't promise but I have just taken out of storage a whole load of original Amiga disks.

I'm busy this weekend but I'll try and dig it out.

I don't have KryoFlux but I know someone who does and can get it imaged if that's of any use?

Can IPF be made without sending disks to SPS?

UPDATE: Sorry even if I did have them it would be English

I have done for one of my contributor the IPF of the Italian Release of Cruise for a Corpse.

I can zone the ADF of those.

EDIT : done !

lesta_smsc · 01 December 2018, 17:57

How did you ADF the IPF?

jotd · 01 December 2018, 19:02

IPF can be opened with WinUAE, then you can image them to disk image since the disks are pure DOS.
You can also use wwarp when using real amiga.

lesta_smsc · 01 December 2018, 19:21

But does the copy protection in disks not prevent This?

DamienD · 01 December 2018, 19:54

Probably no need for disk copy protect as it requires manual word / code entry

lesta_smsc · 01 December 2018, 20:06

Good point. Lol

Sorry for the offtopic but it is important.
If anyone have the original ATARI ST Spanish version we are looking for them a lot of years ago.

The Spanish Atari ST community has been looking for the Spanish version of this game for years, we have not had any luck looking for it in different atari st forums all over the world, neither by ebay nor by any other place. If someone knows or has the Spanish version of this game please, please let us know.
Thanks and sorry for the offtopic guys.

There probably isn't one if no one can locate it.

maybe one can be built with the atari ST english and spanish amiga files. Those games use a bytecode interpreter so you need the data files with proper colors and it may work (game runs under ScummVM)

I dont want make more offtopic but I tried that.
If we change the "data" files from spanish Amiga version to ST. The backgrounds are weird and music doesnt work.

Seems Delphine uses 16colors backgrounds for ST, 32 for Amiga and 256c for VGA PC version.

lesta_smsc · 02 December 2018, 05:25

I'm trying to remember but there are some users on this forum experienced with doing such ports (Galahad?)

jotd · 02 December 2018, 11:42

that was worth trying... this time only, we are mad at Delphine for creating a 32 color version specially for the amiga instead of dumping 16 colors for all platforms

Galahad does the other way round. He knows how the ST works (simpler than the miggy) and how gfx are stored, and creates conversions for the amiga. No color conversion, you get the shitty old 16 colors but at least you can play on a miggy

dlfrsilver · 02 December 2018, 23:58

you need to make an extractor/inserter for the archive files of this game, then pick the spanish text files from the PC version, and use the UK or french graphic files.

CORRECTING ITALIAN TRANSLATION
Wanted to correct some errors in the Italian version of CFAC... Do you know if someone made an extract/reinsert tool to work on the texts, in the end?

EDIT: never mind. Found the italian thread on Old Games Italia... with @Scandy working on the re-translation
