Here is an example of this, but someone working on TOSEC should set it up so they have easy access to the results.

Hi guys: Does anyone have a working 'The Simpsons: Bart Vs. The Space Mutants' that works on the A600?

I have KS 3.1 installed with 2.05 switcher too.
I've tried:
Simpsons, The - Bart vs. The Space Mutants (1991)(Ocean)(Disk 1 of 2)[cr CSL].adf
and
Simpsons, The - Bart vs. The Space Mutants (1991)(Ocean)[cr AGL].adf
And both crash. The first one has corrupt graphics and locks up, and the second gives the red 'click mouse to restart' screen.

I presume the same happens for everyone else!
A WinUAE A600 (KS3.1) crashes them also.

Thanks!!

This does indeed work with the A600 and KS3.1.
But, just for the sake of completeness, and considering the thread it's in,
I would like to report that there's some on-screen graphical corruption of the in game items.
I've only played level one so far, so, I've no idea if other levels are affected.
(Look at the coin and wrench)

Somehow one of the files on the disk image is corrupted, causing the graphics
problems.

I've re-ripped the file from the original and fixed the image to create a v1.1
version of the game.

It is now in the Zone.

Nice one G-man

Does it exist a working version of Knight Force?

All ADF images I have tried crash under Winuae.

Interesting, I just tried these in WinUAE and they work fine

... Knight Force (1989)(Titus)[cr Europe].adf [CRC: 5E82C2FE]
... Knight Force (1989)(Titus)[cr Europe][a].adf [CRC: 6C80901B]

The [cr Ministry] .ADF gurus though...

I thought on the first stage the graphics for one of the enemies was messed up but tested with the .IPF and it's exactly the same:

The enemy is a spring

Crashdisk · 07 June 2017, 22:59

other version to test in The Zone!

Thanks, but as mentioned, I have no issues with the following in WinUAE:

... Knight Force (1989)(Titus)[cr Europe].adf [CRC: 5E82C2FE]
... Knight Force (1989)(Titus)[cr Europe][a].adf [CRC: 6C80901B]

Also, as I'm using WinUAE, personally I just use the .IPF (as I know it will be 100% and the cracks don't have any trainers etc. so).

Maybe retrogamer would be interested in testing your new file though

The so called "cracked" version of Wolfen by Shades is not cracked at all. As soon as disk 2 is needed the game will show a screen telling you it is not an original and stop.

They must have playtested that to exhaustion!

StingRay · 17 January 2018, 18:40

The game lets you enter anything at the protection and still appears to work. Emphasis on appears. I can easily imagine what happened in the Shades headquarter (which was in Berlin) back then:

"Hey, we have a new game here, let's see if we can release it."
"Is there any protection?"
"There is but apparently it doesn't work at all! Game still works even if we enter a wrong word."
"Hey cool, we have a release and don't have to do anything for it!".

Maybe Backlash has cracked properly afterwards!

Does anybody knows if there exist an ADF version of The Clue with music?

Because all ADF cracks I tested so far is mute.

It's so ridiculous that it can be true

Man, I am laughing to tears....

I will come posting tonight about quite a number of games i have been able to rename, correct and also fix with the DMS or WRP patches i got.

Games thought as working like Narc, Wrath of the Demon, just to name these fews, have to be patched.

The regular Wrath of the demon's ADF set for instance needs to be patched on disk 5.

I have also discovered that some fix applied on cracks not 100% working have no external sign of having been patched.

I have as well discovered some new non tosec trainer versions of some games

Please check my folder in the folder Upload on the server
