Missing WHDLoad information

Phiber · 20 April 2005, 14:41

Here are a few game entries with missing/incorrect WHDLoad-status

Leisuresuit Larry In The Land Of Lounge Lizards
Leisuresuit Larry In The Land Of Lounge Lizards Enhanced
Leisuresuit Larry II aka. Leisure Suit Larry Goes Looking For Love (In Several Wrong Places)
Leisuresuit Larry 3:Passionate Patti In Pursuit Of The Pulsating Pectorals
Leisuresuit Larry 5: Passionate Patti Does A Little Undercover Work

All these slaves were done by JOTD in 2003-2004

The German version of LSL5 is also supported by the LSL5 slave since v1.2

And a kind encouragement to everybody else to report their findings to this thread, since atleast I didn't notice/find anyone posting about before..

@RCK: That should cover the numbered and the A-alphabet, I'll continue to add new titles to this post later today...

Duke · 22 April 2005, 13:08

We are currently working on a way to automaticly synchronize the info from whdload.de, stay tuned

Phiber · 22 April 2005, 13:45

@Duke

Heh... that would be nice to keep HOL up-to-date almost realtime

Codetapper · 22 April 2005, 23:49

Yeah, I wouldn't worry about looking up missing games - particularly if it's just a new version. Once the script is done, it will automatically update the HOL site when a WHDLoad game is installed.

Phiber · 03 August 2005, 12:41

Whats the news on the updating thingy? still work-in-progress?

Codetapper · 03 August 2005, 13:53

It's almost complete. The WHDLoad site now links to the HOL entries and HOL just has to do the same, it shouldn't be long now!

killergorilla · 03 August 2005, 13:56

Yeah I noticed the links this morning, a good addition!

I thought they were caps IDs at first

Phiber · 17 November 2005, 10:52

Dunno if this applies to the general field of earlier posts on this thread i started some time ago, or should it be mentioned in a different one, but here is a request that popped in to my mind just today..

How about adding a sidenote to the slave's information or a somekind of checkbox to the general information, if an install requires a registered version of the WHDLoad software?

If a "WHDLoad needs to be registered" key would be in the game's database-entry, you could do a quick search for games which need the registered version in order to work...

Just a suggestion..

Codetapper · 17 November 2005, 19:14

That "requires registration" information is not stored on the WHDLoad website so it cannot feed the data to HOL.

I'm not sure how useful it would be anyway to be honest, if you particularly want to play a game you can click the link and look at the readme to check it yourself. The readme contains far more information such as the version needed, memory requirements etc. And then you have other problems such as a CD32 install that doesn't need registering but a disk version that does. I think there are more important things to work on than this to be honest.

Phiber · 17 November 2005, 23:24

Ok, no biggie.. like i said it was just a thing that popped up in my mind suddenly..
