Tomb Raider Amiga and Duke3d Amiga

ancalimon · 02 July 2007, 23:18

I found Amiga versions of Duke3d and TombRaider in my hdd.

Are there updated Amiga versions of these games?

Graham Humphrey · 02 July 2007, 23:20

I didn't even know they existed... got any pics?

ancalimon · 02 July 2007, 23:31

I can upload them to the zone. If its all right?

It turned out tomb Raider has no Amiga executable inside the archive strange. Maybe the executable is somewhere else. I'll keep looking.

Shoonay · 02 July 2007, 23:40

If it'll fit in theZone, go ahead, please upload if you like!
Are these ports or such strange conversions as Resident Evil?

I'd be a bit worried about the copyright aspect though, I'm not sure where EAB stands on something like this...

ancalimon · 02 July 2007, 23:46

these are ports. I found Duke Nukem3d on aminet.

the archives actualy does not have the amiga executables in them. I must have them elsewhere. you can download duke3d from aminet. but cannot find tomb Raider's executable. dukenukem is 21mb, tombraider is 25 mb. will they fit?

I'll upload if you all want. I wouldn't like to violate any copyrights.

Shoonay · 02 July 2007, 23:46

Come on, if it's the whole game it won't fit anyways, if it's just the "interpreter" it will and won't brake the rules, cause it's not being sold anywhere, right?

---=== EDITED ===---
Over 20mb? Nope, I believe that's a bit too much.

---=== EDITED ONE MORE TIME ===---
Well, you could cut'em in 6mb pieces and upload that way

CU_AMiGA · 02 July 2007, 23:48

Duke 3D should be ok as its only the game engine files. you need to to get the d3d atomic edition wad files for it to work. i have it on my old spare hd somewhere i think. tomb raider for amiga is actually a fake - it didn't exist. all what this file here is a joke one (if memory serves).

Legerdemain · 03 July 2007, 00:04

I don't know how many times I've seen this Tomb Raider on the Amiga stuff having been talked about on forums... and the only thing that I've ever seen having come out of the discussions is that the Tomb Raider thing they thought were for real were nothing but a hoax.

I'd bet this will end up the same way... coming to realise that the files have nothing to do with an Amiga Tomb Raider...

Ironclaw · 03 July 2007, 07:51

If someone hook me up with the duke nukem files for Amiga (all needed to play on an Amiga, pc files+amiga files that is), I'll make a longplay.

laffer · 03 July 2007, 08:01

Haha I should've expected that

You're really good at making longplays btw, you're good at a lot of games! I'm only good at the ones I used to play a lot, I could never make longplays of as many various games as you have!

Ironclaw · 03 July 2007, 08:15

Thanksie!

. Play a game a bit and you becomes better. I practice some of the games I never played before, before playing them. In the beginning I suck at most games. Like in Last Action Hero, I lost alot of health and lives in the beginning. Then in the later levels I got better and found out I could do combos, each combo if done right could take out any boss or enemy in one single combo string without them getting a chance to throw a punch at me

. Also the same in Dune 2 I recently completed (not upped yet), in the later levels I found out that the price changes everytime you enter that place where you can order stuff, and also notices around half way that when you place some concrete blocks under buildings, they don't lose health that much... and alot more

.

Another reason why I want to record a game like Dukenukem is that I know WinUAE inside and out, I can make any game run super smooth, if not perfect.. whilst others can't.... someone wanted to record OnEscapee before me, I said HELL NO!... because I know the intro is a bit difficult to emulate... if not done right, some animations runs choppy or slow.... so, I did the

recording... People here have had huge lag, slowdowns, choppy movements in 3D games like Genetic Species, Alien Breed 3D, and they have a far faster system than I have, but still, for me it runs perfect.... so, I'm curious on how Dukenukem runs.. maybe it's a game not easily emulated to run perfect.. but havn't run into one yet.

edit:
I want game to look as good as they can..... it makes the Amiga look much better. Like, most 3D games, let's take Robocop 3, that games runs choppy as hell on a real stock Amiga 500.... well, in my recording it's pretty smooth

.... now it looks much better.

killergorilla · 03 July 2007, 09:04

I'd rather you do longplays of decent amiga games, I can see Duke on any PC site thanks

Ironclaw · 03 July 2007, 13:35

It's so people can see the power of the Amiga. That's why I record 3D games in perfect speed, and not sluggish like on the real system. It makes the Amiga look better... Very good for youtube

. Imagine if I recorded Duke Nukem for Amiga and put it on youtube?.. people never played Amiga games and the like would say like "WOW, the Amiga was so powerfull"... etc..

I record these nice looking games to show off the Amiga.

killergorilla · 03 July 2007, 13:55

The 'power of the amiga' ?

The fact is that a real Amiga runs Duke Nukem like dogshit

Someone coming onto an Amiga forum is gonna say "WOW, How do I run Duke nukem as good on an amiga as on youtube"

Reply is either:

Get quite a powerful PC to emulate a game you could run natively on a £10 PC.

Or

Spend £100s on a upgraded Amiga.

Nice!

Ironclaw · 03 July 2007, 13:59

I know, these games requires a powerful Amiga to run smooth. But a very cheap, and not that fast PC can run it smooth in Winuae. My PC only has 1.6ghz, which is nothing... and all games so far runs smooth in WinUAE..... so, less than a decent PC is needed imo....

But still... it's all for a good cause

.... Amiga rules!!!!

killergorilla · 03 July 2007, 15:28

I'd still rather see decent Amiga games, not X-year old ports of 3D games to impress people.

You 3D Whore!

Dizzy · 03 July 2007, 15:34

yes I agree with KG.

Dont monkey around with ports of old 3D PC games , when you can make longplay of cool real amiga games

CU_AMiGA · 03 July 2007, 16:52

Coming from someone with a monkey avatar!

Ironclaw · 03 July 2007, 17:19

I recorded a longplay of Simon the Sorcerer 2, and that too is a PC port.... and people seem to like that one :P... no music though

. But if the game can be played on an Amiga, I want to record it

..... so bring me what I need to play this game!!. and a longplay will be made!... if possible,,... something might get in the way.
