I'll start listing the games which already boot and play on the CD32 which are;

Inherit The Earth (also has unofficial English release)
Pinball Prelude
Cedric And The Lost Sceptre
Humans 3: Evolution - Lost In Time
Wendetta 2175
Legends
Mag!!!
Fightin' Spirit
Black Viper
Star Crusader
Kang Fu
Humans 3, Legends, Mag!!!, Fightin' Spirit and Star Crusader were specifically published for the CD32 AFAIK. Fightin' Spirit may have been re-released for Amiga CD only by Alive Mediasoft (see HERE, HERE and HERE), but otherwise the games in your list were released for both CD-equipped Amiga's and the CD32.

Checking the CD32 and Amiga CD game releases in HOL may help in reducing the confusion. While not perfect, it's perhaps the best source in trying to distinguish the two types of releases:

http://hol.abime.net/hol_search.php?..._unreleased=no (CD32 releases)

http://hol.abime.net/hol_search.php?..._unreleased=no (Amiga CD releases)

Yep, strike Fightin' Spirit from my previous post - that was indeed a dual CD32/Amiga CD release. Thought something was off about that when I checked HOL - will have to correct that!

Mag!!! is an interesting one. It says "CD32 version" on the titlescreen, but nothing on the game box or CD itself:

Well, if you see the Alive Mediasoft release of Fightin' Spirit on Ebay.....then avoid it if you're chasing the dual CD32/Amiga CD version, as it probably only contains the OCS/ECS and AGA disk versions of the game (similar to the CD release of Civilization).

Must remember to create a separate HOL entry for that one too now!

Nemac IV: The Director's Cut We've done

Capital Punishment should be on the list (Not sure if it was an Amiga CD release by itself though, possibly just as a bundle with T-Zero). It's almost working thanks to a tool Galahad put together (which is required for the thing to run from a CD32 disc at all) but has some crashing issues.

Powder we can do a release of this, probably CDTV/CD32 even. Has the same problem as Cap Punishment but works perfectly thanks to Galahad's utility. I wanted to do this as some sort of bundle release but it's probably interesting enough to release on it's own.

Gunbee is planned, Steve's even done the cover for it. The main issue is that it's still being sold via ACP&TCP (for around 2 euros as I recall).We're likely to release some sort of "conversion kit" where, if you own the DMS files from the archive download, it'll embed them into a CD32 ISO.

Pinball Brain Damage is also ACP&TCP, that isn't a definite no but we'd also need to require ownership of the original.

Wendetta I might do a "fixed" release for, it's one of the handful of games that you need to boot the CD32 -before- inserting the disc to play (Kang Fu and F17 are the others I'm aware of).

Eat the Whistle I've tried and failed to do a release of this due to memory requirements.

Onescappe is tentatively planned as a release for SX-32 owners only

Are they still to be uploaded? I can't find anything in the Zone or on the EAB ftp server.

Can you confirm what's on the Alive Mediasoft release of Fightin' Spirit CD please (it should look like THIS) - the CD32 version or the AGA and/or OCS/ECS disk versions of the game?

It's linked to a .nrg file which doesn't load.

Here is a link to the .iso.

Capital Punishment had always crashing issues.
I got that Game back then as an Original, and tryed it on 3 Different Amiga Settings.

Stock 1200
1200 with blizzard 30-50Mhz 32 MB
4000 with Blizzard 60-50mhz 128 MB

This Game always Crashed ( even with the original patch ) . I want my Money back.

It was indeed a Capital Punishment for the Amiga & 4 Me. What A Piece .. ....

Worst Amiga Game Ever made, considering all the hype and Stuff.

Just thinking of it driving me NUTS

I just tried Sixth Sense iso.7z that I found here on eab ftp. Iso boots on cd32 but after logo anim screen stays black. Then I added some fast ram to cd32 and it loads and works. Then I removed fast ram and looked at iso files, s-s... cause of sys-config file in devs set to all black you can't see that VEGA graphic adventure player actually complains that chip mem is low and if you don't have fast ram the game will probably crash at some point and asks if you wanna continue or reboot. If you press enter it'll continue but crash after first scene in intro or if you modify it to skip intro it'll crash at some point in between loading scenes.

I actually didn't try 6si on real tf328 but in winuae cd32+fast ram it works and I don't see the reason why it wouldn't work on real tf328.
I doubt that other games boot but if requirements are met they could be installed leaving the cd redundant.

I'd like to know which of these AmigaCD games have CDDA? And don't need 030. So we'd have a reason why to burn cd and install game on tf328.
