I should probably add a "Cheats" .txt file for "Shadow Warrior" containing these :p

Over the couple years or so of doing this, Shadow Warrior was by far the longest standing game we all played. We also played Quake 1 and 2, Unreal Tournament 1 and 2, Duke, Blood, Blood II, Klingon Honor Guard, a Star Trek game (only the host liked this though), C+C Red Alert, Z, Warcraft 1 and 2 and probably loads i forgot. Good times.

My god man, that is a superb line-up of games listed there! and a little later down the line we got the absolutely brilliant Thief games (well 1 & 2, things slowly went downhill after that) :D

Now renamed to "Shadow Warrior & Expansion Packs [RTG] [JFSW].uae" so archive updated ;)

I've updated this archive again for the final time...

Only a small change i.e. the inclusion of the "ShadowWarrior_Cheats.txt" file ;)

speshady 05 May 2021 19:06

maybe easier for you to just upload/share the txt file?
really small file to upload/download would be much better, just a thought.

Guys, here is an interim .HDF for BSzili's Exhumed / Powerslave Amiga port:
https://i.imgur.com/yflblw1.png
I had to play around with "uae-configuration" to adjust settings with each game in order to get "Exhumed" & "Return to Ruins" running at what I believe to be the correct speed.

Please test and provide feedback.

Edit: added crosshairs to both games... if you don't like and want to remove then press <I>.

BSzili 08 May 2021 06:07

The crosshair was my addition to PCExhumed, I'm glad someone liked it :D The sprite was among the game's tiles, but the original version didn't use it. You could say that I... I exhumed it :spin

Nice work :great

Yeah, I've turned crosshairs on for both games in my set up ;)

Nobody who has my collection has tested the .HDF I've set up for "Exhumed" as yet?

Rod_cl 08 May 2021 15:47

I've updated the .HDF with a new 060 executable that BSzili gave me, this fixes the issue I was experiencing here.

Also added "Exhumed_Cheats.txt" ;)

So please just download / extract this archive into "C:\WinUAE".

Heya Rodrigo,

People usually have to send me a PM, but no need now as I've read your post ;)

I installed it and the game runs fine for me, but that's all I can say right now as I haven't figured out yet how to proceed from the starting area. On training, I fall through the hole, get the gun, shoot the guard who appears, then that's it- I cannot find a way to proceed. On regular game start I go down the stairs, grab the gun, shoot the scorpion or whatever it is, crouch to go through the opening, collect the goodies, and again can't find out how to proceed.

Looks like I need to RTFM.

EDIT: I also ran Powerslave on eXoDOS and it doesn't seem any different except for the keys and that version doesn't appear to be set to use the mouse. I appreciate the controls on this being normalized to standard FPS- I don't know if they were intentionally set that way or if mouse control changes the keys used. I am guessing I need to try to activate things as I did see in the manual a key for that and found I could open something up in the training area, but still not enough to proceed.

Thanks for testing Qun Mang ;)

I haven't tried the "Training" but here's a hint for the normal game. Try shooting the flaming skull barrels :p

So just finished re-testing as I usually do...

Formula 1 Grand Prix is flaky as hell :scream

I mean, when I set this up / tested / took screenshots it obviously worked fine.

Re-tested and maybe one time out of five the game doesn't get stuck here and gets to the menu screen:
https://i.imgur.com/yZH17VB.png
Tried all available .ADFs / IPFs and numerous OCS / ECS Agnus configurations but continues to occur.

So, for this reason I've now swapped over to the WHDload version.

Finally, with The Hound of Shadow, I forgot to enable two disk drives so this has now been corrected.

Please just do the following:
  • Delete the <gamedir> "C:\WinUAE\Games\Formula 1 Grand Prix".
  • Download / extract this archive into "C:\WinUAE".

Methanoid 09 May 2021 22:57

Oh the days when Williams made the best F1 cars [emoji45]

DamienD 09 May 2021 23:05

Oh no... just fully tested the WHDLoad version and it runs way too fast, and therefore unplayable :scream

Looks like I've have to swap back to the disk version, but firstly need to get it to load reliably. Not sure how though as I've tried all options I can think of... also created a thread here: Formula 1 Grand Prix - Working Reliably

Anyway, that's now a job for tomorrow.
