Reasonable of you to NOT try with a load of configs, since it would've been a waste of time! This disk is badly broken, I found it in TOSEC!

Skychase spits out 'Error code 121' when trying to load 'loader'.
Rick Dangerous - works.
Jaws - works too.
Pool - doesn't work.

I analyzed the disk a bit more and found out the following:

'Pool': the data previously contained between the 48th..56th block as well as the 70th..80th block have been OVERWRITTEN twice with the data between 92nd..102nd data block of the main executable! This file is irreparably lost.

TOSEC name should therefore be
Games Disk 1 - SkyChase [ b ] & Rick Dangerous & Pool [ b ] & Jaws (1989)(-)

--

Found working version on Astronut's Game Disk #23 - in the zone.

@all: A standalone version is still welcome, though!

I have that copy of skychase too on Floppy though not from TOSEC or ADF source... I also get errors! However it used to work on my Amiga... Time is a cruel mistress

Rick Dangerous · 23 June 2006, 01:46

I've upped it to the zone.

Do you still have THIS copy? I wager it will be different from TOSEC. Consider a knackered source disk used for imaging! At least let me please take a look at it.

Hi I will have a hunt!

andreas · 23 June 2006, 09:48

cool thanks

Raid27 · 26 June 2006, 11:04

Not sure if anyone needs it, but I'm upping a skychase.adf into the zone. It's a collection disk comprising of Major Motion, Cybernoid and Skychase.

The collection is called: "Astronuts Game Disk #23" and Skychase works like a charm....:P

andreas · 26 June 2006, 11:13

Yup that's the one I upped on 27/10/2003, see above

Galaxy · 26 June 2006, 12:29

Another compact has been uploaded to the Zone: Defjam/CCS compact disk no. 10.
Includes Army Moves; Bomb Jack; Computer Scrabble; Quadralien; Skychase; Vectorball; and Whirligig.

No idea if it is in TOSEC, but Skychase seems to load ok.

andreas · 26 June 2006, 16:28

Nice, nice ... but DDNI seems to have a standalone copy, which would interest me a lot

Galahad/FLT · 26 June 2006, 17:48

Does the original IPF of Skychase have anything extra on it at all?

DDNI · 26 June 2006, 18:28

Ok have found the disk out.
It is not part of a compilation with Rick Dangerous, pool and jaws. It is a compilation with Bombjack, scrabble, Skychase, Vertorball, Whirligig and Virus.

Is it still of use? I am at work now so cant check it for errors.... I am sure it has some though

Galahad/FLT · 26 June 2006, 19:13

Original and crack are the same, nothing missing.

andreas · 26 June 2006, 19:41

Lots of thanks for this info, Galahad.

I wasn't sure, hence I was reluctant first, but now it's there in the zone:
Skychase standalone ADF version.

Created from SPS 2612. That's the auto-booting version, while 2610 needs Workbench to run, as the disk is not bootable.

Any chance of a re-upping? Been after Skychase ever since I got WinUAE lol!

Belgarath · 05 August 2007, 14:04

You can download it from the GameBase Amiga website in the requests folder
