Are they of any interest? If so, please, let me know how to make a dump of the disks.

Please make dumps for both. I would much appreciate it.

These are the nine still MIA.

1041 - Kalas Puffs Expressen (Sweden) crc32 ea5b3ca3
1891 - Dungeons of Avalon II - The Island of Darkness + Tetrix (Germany) (Coverdisk - Amiga Fun - Gold Edition) crc32 fe2ea19c
2287 - Amber (Germany) (v4.00a 25.11.90) (Coverdisk - Amiga Fun - Issue 11) crc32 3b48cfa0
2529 - Ice Runner (Europe) crc32 f1d6027e
2535 - Hexuma (Europe) (Promo) crc32 cd3711bb
2545 - Fears (Europe) (Preview) (AGA) (Coverdisk - CU Amiga - Issue October 1995) crc32 69013a46
2758 - Flowers of Crystal (Europe) (v2.0) crc32 412c33aa
2764 - Ratco (Europe) crc32 7b6ffa45
2923 - Downhill Challenge (Europe) (v1.0) crc32 bcd964a1

Same with SPS 2923 Downhill Challenge (ipf added in 2010), not official SPS ipf, checksum is different on the available ipf.

Abaddon has dumped Downhill Challenge and the dump is on the FTP, so can't see why the official IPF can't be released once it's verified by Denis!

Retroplay · 18 February 2024, 22:19

From SPS artefacts.xml database.
SPS 2923 is not the US version according to SPS database.

Code:

<artefact>
    <id>2923</id>
    <date>2010-01-01</date>
    <updated>2010-06-28</updated>
    <name>Downhill Challenge</name>
    <namereal>Downhill Challenge</namereal>
    <release>retail</release>
    <type>standalone</type>
    <version>v1.0</version>
    <region>EU</region>
    <languages>
      <language>en</language>
    </languages>
    <system>
      <target>
        <name>Amiga</name>
        <model>OCS</model>
        <type>PAL</type>
      </target>
    </system>
    <media amount="1">
      <item>
        <id>0</id>
        <name>Face-OffIceHockey.ipf</name>
        <crc>BCD964A1</crc>
        <size>1049214</size>
      </item>
    </media>
    <info>
      <id source="hol">400</id>
    </info>
  </artefact>

Something's amiss here, why is the disk named "Face-OffIceHockey" ?

BarryB · 18 February 2024, 22:41

Think the SPS Database hasn't been updated for god knows how long so it could be an error!

Seeing as Abaddon has a dump you can be certain it's the correct version so it just needs Denis to verify and find the correct IPF to release!!

Retroplay · 18 February 2024, 23:24

Yes, database is an antique by now.
It's too bad it never was updated with all the C64 g64 images.

I consider all of these lost to time, such a shame.

About Downhill Challenge and Kalas Puffs Expressen, yeah, disk contents is most likely the same.
All that differs is the CAPS header, creation date and things like that.

I would be happy to do so but I haven't dumped any original floppy in the last 5 or 6 year and I forgot the procedure.

I own a greaseweazle if that can help, if I'm not wrong I have to make the raws files from the floppy and then someone can check them and make an ipf... is that correct?

Please send me the instructions by PM or write them down here, thanks.

Belgarath · 19 February 2024, 09:00

What I do is make 2 dumps, first in SCP format and the second in RAW/Kryoflux format.

GW read gamename.scp --revs=5 --tracks=c=00-83

GW read gamename_track00.0.raw --revs=5 --tracks=c=00-83

You could also add the retries switch, but to be honest if it's having problems reading the disk it's best to take it out and give it a good clean.

You may need a few more command switches depending on your setup.

edit: and send them to Denis (dlfrsilver) afterwards.

jurassicman · 19 February 2024, 09:40

@Belgarath
Ok, thanks for the info.

I'll try to make the dumps as soon as possible.

Can you upload the dumps to the zone or to the ftp under Flux_Images/Incoming/KryoFlux_SCP/{your username}. Would be nice to have the raw dumps available for all games possible. Also would like to add support, if needed, to disk-analyse.

I know the feeling. Whenever you get time. I would like to get dumps for all Amiga games on the FTP.

@Abaddon

Hi,

I search for an IPF for the game Bivouac (French version)

https://amiga.abime.net/games/view/chamonix-challenge

Do You think it's possible to find it ?

I have the dumps.

Now I have to find out how to upload them on the FTP (I've never done it). They are quite big even compressed so I don't think it is a good idea to upload them into "The Zone!".

In the meantime, I've uploaded them to my mega account so, if you want, send me a PM and I can give you the link to download them.

TCD · 22 February 2024, 14:15

Thank you very much

I've added them to the file server in 'Flux_Images/Incoming/KryoFlux_SCP/jurassicman'.

I have Bivouac, unfortunately, my original was modified by a virus, because the previous owner has the great idea, letting the disk write enabled !
