Yes, we really should make a difference.

Until now i have checked all(really every single disk) TOSEC games disks beginning with letters P -Z and my experiences are, that most times the virus is really on disk, of course there are exceptions.

As I said, you may probably have encountered the Lamer v4.

That aside, if LAMER is responsible to block destruction, it should also be renamed [b LAMER] or sort of thing.
Because it might matter whether a block only contains LAMER! or whether it's just a byte that has to be switched so that the disk works again, respectively so that the block checksum is OK again.

Ok, maybe you are right, but i have different opinion, because
we should try to use general [b] descriptors, in this case "[b checksum error].
Let me try to explain.
In your example, you would prefer to use "[b Lamer]", by the way, we would create a new [b] descriptor, its not used in current Amiga games dat until now.
Also you could use "[b corrupt file]" or "[corrupt gfx]" and this causes
thousands of different descriptors for one and the same main error.
If we have a general solution, then the user knows, if he use a disk with
[b] flag, then its possible that he get problems with this disk.

...remember, its my own opinion.

TCD · 12 September 2009, 21:40

I agree with mai, since the type of corruption is more important to know than the cause for it

..a much better description in only one line.

Cheers mai

TKaos · 13 September 2009, 05:26

I agree more to andreas, what caused the [b] flag is more important.
On the other hand you could also make it both [b LAMER checksum error], that would require a change in the TNC.pdf file where [b], [b Descriptor] should be changed to [b], [b reason damage].

Sorry, i have still different opinion.
I think its not a good idea to change TNC, the result would be to have much longer filenames.

PandMonium · 15 September 2009, 02:13

i also think knowing what is bad is the important thing to know, looking at the set i would like to know if he was a bad dump and what was wrong with it, in this case crc errors, having lots of extra info is not always a great idea in my opinion :P

andreas · 24 September 2009, 16:46

... and another small duo of extended ADFs renamed as "overdumps":

Terrorpods (1987)(Psygnosis)(M7)[o] (crc 0418CF96)
Tusker (1990)(System 3)[o] (crc 3D8B02D5)

The next IS an extended adf, but there is nothing indicating this:
Tusker (1990)(System 3)(crc E10486F8)

I suggest to DELETE the following two ones:

Trivia Game Show (1990)(Impressions)[h FLT][u][b](crc 7685D765)
53 KB packed; this is maybe a patch disk

Thomas the Tank Engine (1992)(Alternative)[cr QTX][t +2 Metal Force][u][b](crc 9F5F5BC1)
11264 bytes unpacked; this appears to be a trainer patch disk!!

Doesn't look broken to me at all: BUT it must be used as DMS and patched onto the QTX scene original using the DMS tool in overwrite/update mode!

great great work andreas, i'm sure mai will appreciate it too

let's hope so

well, just a little ADFCHK magic again

If you let these be scanned with ADFScan, each of them - except for "Emporos" - will be reported as "clean."

trackah123 · 30 April 2010, 01:24

I never did any TOSEC renaming stuff but i found something and i hope its a small contribution to this correction thread.

While i was browsing through the Amiga Musicdisks (Letter A).
I found the following errors.

Amazing Amiga Tune 10 (19xx)(Switch).adf
(Has checksum errors) should have a [b] behind it?

All Time Greatest Hits 09 (1992)(Static Bytes)[KS2.0].adf
All Time Greatest Hits 10 (1992)(Static Bytes)[KS2.0].adf
These 2 work better in Kickstart 1.3. so it would be without the [KS2.0] label?

Amiga 500 Demo (19xx)(Commodore)(de).adf
Its not German language but Dutch

so (de) changed into (nl)?
Also its not even a musicdisk, should be put into Slideshow folder?

Amiga Dynamics '92 (1992)(Pacific 202).adf
Read write error on 2nd song. [b] and also a virus on it (try with kick 3.0 to see virus message on bootblock).

Amiga Horror Show (1988)(Slammer).adf
2nd animation doesnt work [b] and not a musicdisk, move to "Animations and Videos"

Amigadeus II (19xx)(Rob Baxter)(Disk 1 of 2).adf
Amigadeus II (19xx)(Rob Baxter)(Disk 2 of 2).adf
Only works properly in Kickstart 2.0 or higher so [KS2.0] added?

Amplifier I, The (1991)(Dimension 4).adf
5th song crashes Amiga "menomono". Maybe a [b]

Amplifier II, The (1991)(Dimension 4)(Disk 1 of 2).adf
Amplifier II, The (1991)(Dimension 4)(Disk 2 of 2).adf
4th song crashes Amiga "House". Maybe a [b]

I will try to check every musicdisk, i hope i can help a bit this way.

mai · 30 April 2010, 08:47

If you plan to check every single disk in this dat, then you should ask, if you can apply the changes for yourself.
I am sure, every kind of help is welcome.
As i can see in your contributions, you have the ability to do a proper job.
Please go to TOSEC forum and ask about this:
http://www.tosecdev.org/

That aside, if LAMER is responsible to block destruction, it should also be renamed [b LAMER] or sort of thing. Because it might matter whether a block only contains LAMER! or whether it's just a byte that has to be switched so that the disk works again, respectively so that the block checksum is OK again.

On the other hand you could also make it both [b LAMER checksum error], that would require a change in the TNC.pdf file where [b], [b Descriptor] should be changed to [b], [b reason damage].

I am sure, every kind of help is welcome. As i can see in your contributions, you have the ability to do a proper job. Please go to TOSEC forum and ask about this: http://www.tosecdev.org/
