KG's HOL problems (Ongoing)

I thought as I'm constantly installing games for my whdload packs and come across errors every now and then, I might as well start a little thread!

Right... firstly

The game Baba Yaga > http://hol.abime.net/4

Doesn't say it has a whdload install but it does, as the Abracadabra install supports it.

See here > http://www.whdload.de/games/AbraCadabra.html

Secondly a new entry needs to be created for:

"Ultimate Soccer Manager Mid Season Update"

It's a datadisk for Ultimate Soccer Manager, and the disk says:

A500
(C) 1996 Impressions
Sierra On-line Ltd.

I'm no expert in data disks, and I will assign this to someone else of the team.

The WHDLoad/HOL linking has to be fixed on the WHDLoad side - HOL reads the IDs from the WHDLoad site once a week. I have fixed those now, they should be visible Monday! It's probably easier just to email mistakes like this directly to myself or Wepl.

Thought it might be good to add a note to both Chaos Engine 2 entries, as I inded own the original and both the ECS and AGA versions came together.

Just thought that might be a good bit of info to put in the info box

@KG
My copy did also. Most copies of Chaos Engine 2 did, but not all from memory. IIRC the AGA version was released a little later than the ECS version and the publisher decided just to throw both versions in the same box for the one price.

Mean Arenas and Sensi Soccer CD32 are fixed, it will take a few days to filter back to HOL though.

True, this AFAIK has to be done from WHD's side. Also if they make a mistake, it will appear wrongly in HOL too.

As was the case with Sensible Soccer CD32. Which is why Galahad was incorrectly credited for a slave he didn't do. Monday he will be gone from Sensi Soccer when the planets re-align themselves...

Extrial doesn't have the whdload info.

http://hol.abime.net/5465

It seems to have the whdload info put in the notes section instead.

Can we have added KGWHDLoad into HOL?

All games in gamepacks would have yes if they included in KGWHDLoad. (no links of course)

Not such a good idea considering that KGWHD packs are not exactly legal!

Next you guys will be wanting info as to whether a game exists in tsoec etc...

And displaying if SPS/CAPS release exists is legal?


All I'm after is just to make it easier for users to know what games are included in packs. No linking etc.

Not a bad idea for TOSEC at all.

Does that has anything to do with HOL information's??

It is just DB with collected info about games.

If someone is looking for either SPS/CAPS or KG WHDLoad or just WHDLoad, they'll find it with google or some other way...

I really am trying to understand your reasoning... but I can't...

The SPS entry for Bundesliga Manager Hattrick AGA/ECS-OCS is mixed up. There is no AGA dump so far.

The first (left) SPS entry for Great Courts 2 links to Gobliins 2.

There's a fair few sps/hol linking errors, but unfortunately without the SPS team we can do nothing about it.
