/Commodore_Amiga/Retroplay/Commodore_Amiga_-_WHDLoad_-_Games/D/DrachenVonLaas_v1.01_De.lha

"Die" is removed for german installs just like "The" is for english installs.

I forgot that Mercurial doesn't include empty directories, sorry... Download Directories.tar.gz, unpack where your script is and try again (it would be better for initial setup to download collection from Retroplay's cloud and to set GenerateAmigaScript to False for initial run). Also, as I don't want to hijack the thread, please post bug reports to Bitbucket, if possible...

You need an account there, then just go to Issues and create one.

This was triggered by 100MostRememberedGamesOnThe64_v1.01_PerhåkanSundell&RonBirk.lha, solved in v1.0.1. Still needs testing on real Amiga, but I doubt I can do that in next 10 days...

Just delete that archive, Retroplay changed its name.

Foul · 21 April 2017, 23:48

Thank you for this script ... very usefull... no more update "by hand"

Retroplay · 05 May 2017, 18:27

The more I think of it the more it grinds my gears, I really should have chosen lzx over lha for these archives.
CalepharFiles is yet another which fails to compress/extract from lha, oh well...

Thalion · 06 May 2017, 14:08

do you know a good lzx extractor for windows? If yes go on, if not stay with lha as that format i can unpack without any problems on windows.

Foul · 06 May 2017, 14:09

7z ?

Thalion · 06 May 2017, 16:51

not that i would now of that 7z can unpack lzx. I had tried it out in the past and the software is quite bad in my opinion, but if it really can unpack lzx now it could be worth a view again.

Edit: had a quick look at the product page and lzx isn't listed there

You take that back. 7z is amazing compared to WinRAR and WinZIP and it supports (almost) all formats. Just not LZX apparently.

Retroplay · 06 May 2017, 21:19

There's an lzx plugin for Total Commander, but I do not recommend extracting Amiga archives on Windows side.

zzarko · 07 May 2017, 12:16

@Retroplay: Could you point me to original CalepharFiles archive that you tried to convert to lha? I'd like to try to repack it on Linux, just to see if the problem is with the archive or with archiver and to try with multiple archivers.

Retroplay · 07 May 2017, 13:41

Here at WHDownLoad.

I reinstalled the game though, just to be sure.
Check the zone for the image.

ransom1122 · 07 May 2017, 15:02

Thanks for updating CalepharFiles

Thalion · 08 May 2017, 11:47

Yeah i know extraction can be tricky due to the illegal characters Amiga can have.

And no i won't take my statement back about 7z :P Thats just the experience i made.

TuKo · 18 June 2017, 11:26

Can't find IK+ in your package, is that on purpose ?
