Oilmania on CD32?

Really quick one - does anyone know of any CD32 compilations that have Oilmania on them?

OilMania? I didn't know this game existed! I loved OilWells on the C64. Found a download on Planetemu. Hmmm, it's not listed on Lemon Amiga.


Thanks!

I checked ADF version and it's a nondos game.
So it needs a WHDLoad installer and the it can be loaded on CD32.

Is it only me who finds the title of this game amusing in that it wouldn't look out of place for a smut movie?

Cheers, but those aren't Oilmania. (And I can't do anything with an .LHA anyway.)

if a lot of people insist and the original can't be found, maybe I could take that on.

Haha, I suspect a mass outpouring of public demand may be a forlorn hope on my part

Yo Gilbert - it's not a question of finding the game. Stu wants it on CD32. Jean-Francois will need to work his magic.

If it could somehow be compressed onto a single ADF that would also do...

no need to. CD32load handles multi-disks fine. Specially when they're standard dos size.

So basically a 1 meg game with x standard dos track disks isn't an issue for cd32load.
