Access to my "gaming stuff" isnt always possible these days.

edit: 20 done, end of working day

Here is Havie's latest version of Space Invaders with a background

So please just do the following:

Delete the <gamedir> "C:\WinUAE\Games\Space Invaders".
Download / extract this archive into "C:\WinUAE".

Thanks for sharing the collection, it is truly awesome!

All my favourite games is in the collection, plus pretty much all the top games that was reviewed in Datormagazin (Swedens largest computer magazine about the Amiga in the 90's)!

Installed it on a Mac with WinUAE running on top of Wine, so running the Setup.exe required some different steps, but nothing too difficult.

Any way, thumbs up and 5 stars from me!

Heya PBobbenB,

Thank you for taking taking the time to post a quick review

Interesting that it's "installed it on a Mac with WinUAE running on top of Wine".

How does it look, what's the performance like etc?

I think Alpha One also had this installed on a MAC but had a few small issues; I think to do with using a 4K monitor.

Looks fine, performance is fine, though I have just played a couple of games as of yet.

Cool, many thanks for the screenshot

Always wanted to see how my collection looks on a Mac

...oh yeah, that's what I forgot to ask.

As Mac's don't have a "registry", I presume you had to use the .INI file for the settings of my collection?

No, Wine handles it's own registry, so running Setup.exe took care of that.
Here's what the root of a Wine "prefix" looks like:

Also forgot to mention, that the last file (in the screenshot), is a shell bash script for (quick) starting WinUAE, since you can't just double-click an icon like you do when you want to run WinUAE on Windows.

DamienD · 28 January 2021, 12:50

Interesting; thanks for the information

DamienD · 28 January 2021, 13:15

Heya PBobbenB,

I know from our PM discussion that you don't have some Windows keys on a MAC.

This means that you are unable to use some of the Important Keys.

ma693541 doesn't have the <End> key on his laptop, so I remapped to <F11> for him

You can use the same, see below:

Oh man, Scenario 8 is sooooo difficult

I'm literally stuck in my place of origin.

Every time I move out of this area I get 3 x red, 2 x yellow, and sometimes 1 x blue coming to attack my home castle. I can usually manage to fight them off without too many loses, but literally can't move

I have loads of money / resources, the problem is there's only one castle in my area. I need to take another one to help build more of an army but it's far away and I'll constantly be attacked...

profo · 29 January 2021, 17:28

goddamn is that a lot of stuff... still not done with all the downloads.

profo · 30 January 2021, 10:24

Yeah I know the collection is quite large, can't be helped...

Weird, just tested these now and works fine in Chrome.

Don't give up, you are very close now

DamienD · 30 January 2021, 12:40

Wooooohooooo, finally finished Scenario 8 and the game

Now I can start Heroes of Might and Magic II: The Succession Wars

profo · 30 January 2021, 13:11

Ah, so you've downloaded / extracted the "Base install plus "Update Packs #1 - 40" incorporated" and started playing around?

Yeah, I don't really add games that are none English unless they are action / platform games...

There's no point for me as I don't understand how to play / what's going on.

...but as you've said, you can always add in anything I've missed yourself

See below:

Thanks, Damien.
I have the base up until pack 44 extracted as your notes say. Did some really short start/stop tests and all worked well as expected. Now, if i can dl the remaining things and update it, it shall be put to my old laptop in the basement. That thing is used as Winuae machine and to make that first gen lcd tv "smart".

Then i can really play around with your work.
