Oldtimer - English Translation
Has there ever been an attempt to translate this game to english?
There's an english DOS version which may help the cause... https://oldhol.abime.net/2286 |

The WHDL install on the Turran ftp is playable in English of sorts. IDK if that's how the game is or there's been something done to it.

True.
This is a hacked translation. https://ftp2.grandis.nu/turran/FTP/N...erAGA-WHDL.lha The Intro and main menu is in German. A Drawer (in the main office) and the front of the "Account Book" (should be called Balance Sheet Book) is also German; and the Text formation is a bit off here and there, but other then that, its fine Played that alot back in the Days. It was made just a few Kilometers from my Place Good old Max Design Last edited by Torti-the-Smurf; 11 November 2023 at 22:48. Reason: made it a tiny bit shorter |

The message tells you that your a600 rom is bad. You need another one.
Slave workbench 3.1: https://whdload.de/apps/Workbench31.html You can also run the game natively, just assign oldtimer: With WinUAE, you can boot directly into the data directory. The generic whdload is just a packaging of a direct boot installation. Last edited by Aladin; 11 November 2023 at 22:57. |

Ransom requested a hdf, it's in the zone.
It's a native install, not using generic slave. |
