Missing amiga games ?
Hi,
If i start the gamebase application i have only 2560 games available for playing.. allot games are still missing. Seeing the "static" displayed on http://gbamiga.elowar.com/#Features there should be ~4900 games available. I have downloaded the rar packs from http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=23694 GameBase Amiga - Games (v1.0 for Database v1.2 or higher): 530 MBytes GameBase Amiga - Games (Update v1.0 to v1.1 for Database v1.2 or higher): 441 MBytes GameBase Amiga - Games (Update v1.1 to v1.2): 211 MBytes I also downloaded the " Shrunked " updates from 1.2 to 1.5 http://gbamiga.elowar.com/files/Miscellaneous/ Merged all the folders. But only 2560 available in Gamebase fronted 1.2 My updated gamebase amiga games has a folder size of ~2.02GB (zipped) Does someone know where to get the other ~2500 missing games ? Or did i miss an archive ? (see attachment as well) Thank you Ciao |

There are missing games because I've not added them yet
It takes a lot of time to check through the games, more playable adfs get added with every update. Although between the current adfs, ipfs and whd's there isn't a great deal that isn't playable in at least one way now. edit: btw wrong forum, this should be in project.mage |

thank you for this fast reply.
Hope the gamebase gets complete someday There are some well known games still missing ( at least i did play some of the missing games on the good old amiga years ago ) Btw do you know who created the "Shrunked" updates. ? Some games are not zipped after running the .bat file. ( batch scrip for these games are uncomplete ) Do you want me to repost this msg to project.mage or do you have the permissions to move it into there ? thx Ciao pSyLoX |

It will definitely get completed, but it will still probably be a couple of years yet.
eLowar created the shrunk updates, he's a bit busy with exams atm but he'll reply as soon as he can. No need to repost this either, I can't move it but one of the global mods will move it later. |

Edit: Hmm, yeah, the lines for those games are truncated. I'm not entirely sure how, but I think I probably broke them when I fixed that problem of the zip files containing absolute paths. Evil search and replace. Thanks for the report. Last edited by eLowar; 20 February 2008 at 20:11. |
