Monkey Business

stainy · 13 October 2021, 18:49

Picked up an A1000 yesterday with a load of software.
I have a Monkey Business ( The Other Valley Software ) disk

Along with some other stuff.. nice flat box games ( Like the MicroIllusions boxes )

Some other stuff for HOL also.

Hi Stainy, please can you make a kryo dump of this game (ensure that the disk is clean), and i will do my best to make an IPF

I`m getting a greaseweazel in a few days.. I`ll get it done then

No problem, but make the dump in kryoflux format with it

The GW can dump in Kryo format

Thanks !

I got my A1000 running. Good news.. the disk boots so it`s a working disk

dlfrsilver · 15 October 2021, 09:03

ok so let's make a dump

!

stainy · 26 October 2021, 17:58

Hi again
So using raw format I ended up with 161 .raw files.
How do I get that into another format?

Thanks

What's your email.. pm me

mrv2k · 27 October 2021, 11:18

Any chance of getting a nice image of the box front please?

stainy · 27 October 2021, 13:06

Unfortunately.. I only have the original disk

TjLaZer · 27 October 2021, 18:47

Is the disk copy protected?

stainy · 27 October 2021, 22:31

Yes.. well it`s not AmigaDOS

This game is fully AmigaDOS, and i have also a great news to share :

This game runs only on A1000, NTSC KICK 1.0/1.1.

The great news is that not only i did an IPF out of it, but i can also say that this is the very first version of the game.

It's not the enhanced version we got on HOL abime and fixed by Ross.

This version is monochromic like a spectrum game.

Congrats Stainy, nice catch !

Here is the IPF made from your dump : https://we.tl/t-ltAXvmIxjz

stainy · 28 October 2021, 03:39

Oh, the reason I said it wasn`t AmigaDOS is it complained when I tried to dump it with AmigaDOS option.

Retroplay · 28 October 2021, 05:13

Wow, thanks a lot Stainy and Denis for ipf'ing the dump.
One of the rarest games preserved, who would have thought.

Congrats on the Amiga 1000 and thanks for sharing!

I've also a copy of the game - the manual states that the disk is copy protected. I've made a dump with kryoflux and got green and gray blocks - you can find it in TheZone.

EDIT: Loading Sreen says Version 2.1 - but the game dosen't load on my A500.
EDIT 2: Found a working A500 Config - game works. (what a crappy game

)
EDIT 3: Kryoflux ADF Copy works - no copyprotection so far.
