Ambermoon Slideshow
Hello everyone,
I'm new to this board and I hope that I post this request at the right place. While surfing the net, I found an interesting looking file called "AMBERMD.LHA" which should be an Ambermoon Slideshow by Thalion. I tried to download the file but it didn't work. Some screens in a foreign language appeared (I guess some "Log in form"). I didn't manage to register or login because I don't understand the language. URL of the website: http://www.mbnet.fi/Apaja/alueet/tie...rder=ASC&All=1 File URL: http://www.mbnet.fi/Apaja/Kopioi.asp.../AMBERMD%2ELHA Is anybody able to understand the language, download the file and post it here? I didn't find another source for that file in the net. Thanks for your help. Gerry |

I just tried that Ambermoon slideshow on the Real Amiga.
It works fine and is English language, doesn't need to speak any Finnish ;-) Btw, I just tried that great game Ambermoon and noticed that saving game state didn't work at all. I got some strange message about i/o error and then the game quit to dos. I think i need the Ambermoon save disk. It would be nice if it could be uploaded to the Z. ps. how about whd-installed Ambermoon, does it exist ? Thanks in advance, great athmospheric game ! ;-) |

@Gerry and other
Just uploaded it to the Z. I did manage to download it because I'm really Finnish and I have rights to access the site of the Finnish cmagazine "Mikrobitti". :-) |

@DamienD
Thanks. I already get the game to work, by making a new installation (with WinUAE). :-) So, it works, but there was some known bugs in English version of AM. Maybe some helpful soul will help with them. Well, how about some kind of Ambermoon "remake" project ..? :-) |

Hey macce2,
Hmmm, I think there is a know list of bugs with the English version of Ambermoon (as you've discovered)... I'm sure there's a list of all known / found bugs somewhere ![]() You should really ask the Thalion god i.e. alexh. Check out his webshrine ![]() If memory serves me correctly the English version was very, very hard to find and it was alexh who managed to track it down ![]() |

@DamienD
Thanks, Damien. That's a good idea to ask alexh about that, I thought that too. Btw, I liked Amberstar too, only a bit too difficult to me. |

Not really my type of games. |

As soon as the Thalion Webshrine gets back (we recently lost our hosting after 9 years) we'll release the data files with all of the fixes for Ambermoon.
I've been holding out because the fixes could have more bugs than the originals but I guess that if no-one ever tries them we'll never know. |
