Maybe the Windows Compatibility Mode (for Win 7/8) works for the whdrun.exe.

Then it's maybe related to the mingwm10.dll. Probably not compatible with W10.

Just wanted to say a HUGE thanks Belgarath for creating this new version, I have been using 1.6 for many years and can hardly believe that there is a new version now, just awesome! I only discovered this today.

I just thought i'd run the ADF games through the latest TOSEC dat for a laugh and whooaah! There are a lot of Bad Dumps, Bad Dos Copy's, Mixed cracked versions, Mixed Alternate versions etc. It definitely shows that this began creation a long time ago. Thanks though.

But first you need to convert the lha archives to zip. WinRAR can do that.

It would be much simpler if all archives are made the same way. To make them work I remade them in Amiga with classicwb for my other project.
What games did not work with ZIP? |

No renaming, just convert them. Some might not work, but only a few i assume.

I was just talking about the current Gamebase 2.0 ADF games that Belgarath put on the FTP. The latest TOSEC reports a lot of them as alternate versions mixed with normal, Disk 1 cracked by one group and Disk 2 cracked by a different group, bad Dos Copy's etc. Maybe these are the only combination that work correctly. Just run the TOSEC on the ADF games and you'll see what I mean. I don't think it's anything major.

Yes thanks to Mai I've replaced most of the bad dumps, there are a few still in there but that's where as far as I know there's no known good dump.
Mixed alternates is not a problem, I've had sets of disks that were part of one package get reported as different alt sets. Although there's been major improvements in tosec names, there's generally little proof that all [a]'s belong together and all [a1]'s are part of another set. I've tested what I could but if you do find a problem game then report it and I'll change it! Simple as that Also as far as I know GameBase Amiga is still the closest thing you will get to an offline version of HOL. |

I found these by passing the Gamebase 2.0 ADF's through the latest TOSEC. Maybe they are still useable.
