Stampede issue 1 coverdisks?
Does anybody have disk images for the two Amiga coverdisks from Stampede issue 1?
This is the commercial diskmag that became Rampage from issue 3 onwards. There are images of issues 2-5 on TURRAN here and here, but not issue 1. I've got both physical disks but the previous owner overwrote them with Sensible Soccer saves! I would be interested even in partial/corrupt images. The other issues all use Copylock so I expect this one probably does as well. Cheers! |

There is a set on sale if you want to image your own.

Worth a shot, cheers! I've imaged my own copies of 2, 4 and 5, although 2 was falling to bits and needed doing a few tracks at a time with IPA - we'll see what shape those are in. I'd still be interested in other peoples' full or partial images, given how frequently coverdisks get modified...

The issue 1 disks from eBay arrived - I've imaged them and uploaded the .scp files to the Zone. disk-analyse -f amigados_copylock will decode them happily.
Someone posted (and then removed) a comment in this thread saying that they remembered seeing images of issue 1 around before, so I did a bit more searching now that I know what the contents is meant to be - and found ADF images of disk 1 and disk 2 on archive.org. These are identical to my copies except for the Copylock track, so it looks like the contents is correct. I've also imaged all the ST disks for issues 1-7 if those are of use to anybody... |

I did wonder if that might have been the original intention - for a game like Dark Side where there's a big data file then a small executable for each platform, it might have been doable. But if that was the plan, I expect it fell apart pretty quickly. The Amiga disks at least feel very much like a one-person production, and they only use the Rob Northen tools in a very simplistic way. It's quite amusing on the later disks to see what looks like a crack intro that includes a Copylock check, though! Most of them. That site's missing scans of some of the disks, and I've got what looks like a preview version of ST issue 1 that's not there. Unfortunately the contact address bounces, so I'll see if I can get them somewhere else... |

There is a thread on Atari-forum.com where they are capturing disk images of all disks at the flux level, confirming they have not been modified, converting them to appropriate compressed flux format disk images.
https://www.atari-forum.com/viewtopic.php?t=28228 They don't have any STampede disk images. |

Thanks! I've followed up there - post awaiting moderation at the moment.
