Personal nightmare
I downloaded http://www.whdload.de/games/PersonalNightmare.html to finally install this game on my hard drive since it's a nightmare with 5 disk swaps.
The installer only wants three disks, I though it is a bug as the game I bought from 1989 comes on 5 floppies and it won't install. (it takes the first 3 then stops and the game won't work). |

Mmh, looks like an unsupported version. HOL lists only a 3-disk version.
http://hol.abime.net/1032 You can download this version here, preinstalled: http://www.whdownload.com/games.php?name=p&sort=0&dir=0 |

I just loaded up the 3 disk version in winuae, it works, but is missing quite a few files from the 5 disk version. (r1.in r2.in r3.in r4.in) etc.
Just to check i wasn't going mad, Tosec has the original 5 disk version listed as well. Horrorsoft must have later released a later reduced three disk version. Last edited by Richardsk; 30 December 2008 at 04:07. |

Maybe you should send Psygore the disk images of your original version and he supports it too. btw: This TOSEC version looks uncracked.

I checked the 5 disk tosec version. All the files of each disk match exactly the same MD5 checksum as all the files on my original 5 disks. There is no copy protection, (the manual even says to back the game up on 5 disks).
The strange thing is i can find no data on the internet that the 5 disk version of the game even existed. I bought it in 1989, but all the sites with amiga games only list a 3 disk version. The 3 disk version must have some sound and animations removed (it's missing nearly 1MB of additional files.) |

Yes, that's strange. But good news about the unprotected TOSEC version. I'm sure Psygore will support this version in the near future.
