T_hairy_bootson · 17 March 2006, 10:56

I love this forum... and 90% of the people on it.

So as a one time FREE GIFT to you my friends I offer Defender of the crown ADFs and CDTV/CD32 Isos.

How do I get these one time offer free gifts? I hear you asking.

Do I have to buy some crappy german amiga magazine? I hear you call out.

No basically just register on http://www.cinemaware.com and pay a visit to the vault and all these plus many more cinemaware classics can be yours for absolutely nothing.

And don't say I don't do anything for you guys...

And AndreasM can kiss my arse if he doesnt like it...

Here is the list of all of the games offered at vault:

Classic Cinemaware Games

Defender of the Crown
Cinemaware's introductory offering was originally created for the Commodore Amiga, eventually ported to several game platforms, eventually selling over one million units worldwide.

S.D.I.
The Screen Burns With Forbidden Passion and Global War as the Soviets battle the Americans for superiority in space!

King of Chicago
You want the Capone Throne? You want to be The King of Chicago. Who do you trust? Nobody.

Sinbad and the Throne of the Falcon
A ledgendary sailor sets off on an epic seafaring quest!

Rocket Ranger
See the beautiful young daughter of a famous scientist - held captive by a gang of godless goosesteppers!

The Three Stooges
Can THREE Stooges, save ONE orphanage, from FOREclosure?

Lords of the Rising Sun
Self proclamed as having "the greatest graphics and animation ever to appear in a wargame", it is truly a visual masterpiece.

TV Sports Football
The first of Cinemaware's popular "TV Sports" lineup of products, it set new standards for sports games which heavily influenced EA's popular Madden series.

It Came From the Desert
See decent Americans terrorized! Hear teenage girls squeal! Presented in Thrill-o-vision! Make them ants cry uncle!

TV Sports Basketball
Continuing from the success of its first TV Sports game, Cinemaware released TV Sport Basketball receiving much critical acclaim for its realism, league play and team strategies.

Antheads: It Came From the Desert II
"Antheads: It Came from the Desert II" featured a brand new plot following the aftermath in the first game. Find out why the nightmare won't go away, and solve many of the mysteries that were left unturned!

Wings
Cinemaware's parting gift to the gaming community, Wings would be its last and one of its best games to be released.

TV Sports Boxing
A rare TV Sports game which only appeared in the European market. Special thanks to Marco Ridolfo for providing the screen, manual and box scans!

TV Sports Baseball
A very rare Cinemaware title! Produced by Cinemaware and published by Mindscape.

All of the games are offered in all original formats, meaning that you can get DOFC for any of those systems:

Amiga Disk Image
Amstrad Disk Image
C=64 Disk Image
Atari ST Disk Image
Apple IIgs Disk Image
PC EXE (EGA)
PC EXE (CGA)
NES ROMs
CD32/CDTV

What kind of jerk can offer free product as his own???

Hmmm, I knew they had the .adf files but not the CD32/CDTV ISOs...

Interesting

Anubis · 17 March 2006, 11:53

Here is ReadMe from that version (that's btw DOTC2)

Quote:

Warning: This game normally unpacks to dh0:

You will have to make a number of changes to the game's startup script to suit
your system and ensure the correct assignments.

Some parts of the game don't work properly but do not crash the game.
The tournaments are not always playable and the castle raids and quests cannot
be completed (you will automatically lose as you cannot control your
character) and should be avoided. The rest of the game runs OK and I won in
2 hours on the first play (so don't expect lastability here peeps!).

GECKO! '95

They have no full ISOs of Defender 1 & 2, only a WHDLoad installed Defender of the crown 2 without the audiotracks. And there is no CDTV version for Defender of the crown 1.

You are right Retro-Nerd. I did actually download this many moons ago and found as you say that it was WHDLoad installed Defender of the Crown 2 without the audiotracks

very old info. we release this news some years ago on our page... yesterday someone post the directlink here in the board. but... cd32 isos? where?

when you visit me.

but why have a problem? we have release this old news a long time ago on our page...

BippyM · 17 March 2006, 12:57

Doesn't matter what it is.. What matters is the fact it is being given away soon on a german magazine (which you pay for, so this is an incentive to buy said magazine *gift for reader*) yet it can be downloaded absolutely freely from the cinemaware website!

Not that it matters because most of the mebmers here are not german so will never see that mag anyway

Why do you want to know? Do you want to sue them?

Or you are looking to put them on your next issue of your mag? I though, if you were giving the right to publish the games you would have the original?

But, I know where they are but I want tell..

Doc Mindie · 17 March 2006, 14:03

HEY!!!!

Could we please stop all the thrashing now? Because if not, I predict another closed thread pretty soon..... I came here whenever it was to get to share a passion of mine, namely the Amiga Computer. And the last couple of days I've found this place to be a playground for thrashers.

Please, everyone..... stop it okay?

lopos2000 · 17 March 2006, 14:05

So, if you have already the CD32 Iso why do ask where it is? You asked where? On your cover disc I assume.

Anubis · 17 March 2006, 14:23

This nonsense would be the same as if PC Gamer is going after web sites offering X-Com, Alone in the Dark, Wing Commander and other games they had on their cover cd as gift to the readers. (full versions)

But this is a good thing! IMHO AndreasM is better to spend hours searching the net, eBay, warez and other shit-load sites to protect someone elses property, then to be part of social life.

lopos2000 · 17 March 2006, 14:25

I agree with you Anubis.

BippyM · 17 March 2006, 16:45

Another degenerative thread!

I agree with Doc Mindie on this now.. let this end nw. .AndreasM has made his point, as have I and everyone else..

Thread closed.. Please lets not continue this in public
