Five text files uploaded

, The Global Amiga Experience CD is uploading now...

No panic. Have a nice evening, mate.

TCD · 14 July 2010, 22:32

I had a nice one indeed

Cheers for the text files prowler

Really appreciated

prowler · 14 July 2010, 22:39

You'll like the next one even better. It's in English and German.

TCD · 14 July 2010, 22:46

Hehe, looking forward to see it then

Btw : Found the time to have a look at the 'cover' CDs yet?

prowler · 14 July 2010, 23:13

The Global Amiga Experience CD (278MB) and text file uploaded.

I'll go and grab those 'cover' CDs now and see what I can tell you about them. I'll generate some suitable text files to go with them if they're worth hosting (I know you were hoping I'd say that

).

Next chance I get, I'll continue uploading the Aminet CDs starting with Aminet 3.

TCD · 14 July 2010, 23:19

Who me? I would never have asked that *cough*

Thanks

Oh and of course : Moved

Exile · 14 July 2010, 23:25

any chance uploading the covers of these prowler?

prowler · 14 July 2010, 23:45

I don't have covers for all of them, but I can scan and upload those for the EMC Phase 4 and Index CDs, AGA Experience Volume 2 and The Global Amiga Experience CDs if that would help.

The EMC Phase 1 CD I have is the disc only, AGA Experience Volume 1 is the Amiga Format coverdisc version, and the Almathera Clipart & Fonts CD is the 10on10 version.

Exile · 15 July 2010, 00:42

prowler,

many thanks you's

Exile · 15 July 2010, 01:51

any of you got aminet completed?

im missing 17,19,20,21,22,23,24,26,27,28,29,31,32,33,34 and 39

can someone up them? if possible with covers.

prowler · 15 July 2010, 22:09

Hi Exile,

I have all the Aminet CDs (1-52 plus Aminet Games) and will upload all those presently missing on the server eventually, but please note that it is not permitted to upload the original covers for the Aminet CDs or sets, because they are still available for purchase new.

It is for this reason that DemonHellraiser designed and uploaded a complete set of covers with an EAB theme for the Aminet CDs when mounted in DVD cases. The cover notes for each disc replicate those of the original covers so that no useful information is lost.

Have a look at them. They're rather good, actually. You'll find them in the AminetCD folder down at the bottom.

prowler · 15 July 2010, 23:23

Hi TCD,

I've had a look at those 'cover' CDs now, and it turns out that two of them (Issues 10 and 11) are Magazyn Amiga cover CDs dated March and May 1999, respectively. By the time of the other two (Issues 14 and 15, dated March and May 2000, respectively) the Magazine had evolved into a fully interactive Magazyn Amiga on a CD!

The Magazine and CDs were published for Polish speaking Amiga enthusiasts, but they are nonetheless interesting for that. Perhaps you could create a subfolder for Polish magazine CDs and move them.

I have prepared four text files to go with these archives. Those for issues 10 and 11 I have generated from the macover_przeczytaj and indeks files on each disc. For issues 14 and 15, I have extracted the editorial content of each magazine in HTML format from the CD and provided a much smaller, separate archive for users to view the magazine without downloading the main archive, and text files provide descriptions of the archives and instructions for using the HTML-only archives.

I will upload them to my user folder shortly. Let me know if you think they will be useful.

@DH,
Of course they're brilliant, mate!

But we'd best let Exile find out for himself, eh?

Exile · 15 July 2010, 23:23

ok, i get it, but can you mail them to me than. so i can put a complete image away on the harddrive as backup.

prowler · 15 July 2010, 23:28

If I do, I won't be giving it any priority.

TCD · 15 July 2010, 23:38

Okay, moved the 4 images to a new folder. Thanks for having a look. No text files yet though? Taking your sweet time marine?

Hurry up, everybody is waiting

(take your time and cheers

)

prowler · 15 July 2010, 23:58

Okay mate, the wait is over!

I've just dropped everything to upload the fruits of my labour to my user folder. Enjoy!

Edit: Magazyn Amiga (Polish) folder looking good!

TCD · 16 July 2010, 00:03

Ah, finally

Jokes aside, well done mate

Find the images aswell as the additional info gathered by prowler in the folder 'Magazine Cover Disks and CDs/CDs/Magazyn Amiga (Polish)' now

prowler · 16 July 2010, 00:28

Wow! That was quick work, mate!

My reply wasn't so quick because my wife and I are trying to decide whether to get ourselves a fitzsteve-type JVC LCD HDTV from eBay which, as it happens, can be used as a rather good Amiga monitor!

Edit: We bought one!

(£89.99 - collection only)

prowler · 16 July 2010, 03:39

For those CD-ROM images you may find on the EAB File Server and elsewhere which lack a descriptive text file, there is the "Amiga CD-ROM Guide" in AmigaGuide format on Aminet.

This is version 1.6 (last updated on 21st June 1996), so won't include more recent discs, but many of these are still available new from Amiga dealers online and this prevents them being uploaded anyway.

TCD · 16 July 2010, 08:43

Thanks for the link prowler
