WHDLoad NTSC versions!

TjLaZer · 24 January 2015, 08:58

This thread is for NTSC versions of WHDLoad games that seem to be rare or hard to find. Most of the games out there will be the PAL variant of the game, since most of you are in the EU.

Carthage NTSC
GODS NTSC
Globdule NTSC
Rocker Ranger NTSC
Nitro NTSC
Prince of Persia NTSC
Lemmings NTSC
ArmourGeddon NTSC
Double Dragon II NTSC
Turrican NTSC
MagicPockets NTSC

Avail on my upload folder or Retroplay's folder:

ftp://grandis.nu/~Uploads/TjLaZer/WHDLoad_NTSC/

More to follow!

I have added Turrican NTSC (SPS 1838) to my WHD folder on the file server.

TjLaZer · 30 January 2015, 04:49

Thanks! Just added GODS NTSC and Double Dragon II NTSC!

Retroplay · 30 January 2015, 14:08

I've added a few more NTSC games to my folder.
BadDudes_v1.2_NTSC_2425.lha
Leander_v2.2_NTSC_2351.lha
ShadowOfTheBeast2_v1.3a_NTSC.lha
Speedball_v2.0_NTSC_0086.lha
Speedball2_v1.0_NTSC_2006.lha
Unreal_v1.2_NTSC.lha

Unfortunately the SOTB3 WHD imager doesn't like the SPS or PowerCopy images I have.

[edit]
Your nickname btw, that wouldn't happen to have anything to do with RoboCop would it ?

Khyron · 30 January 2015, 19:42

Whdload didn't like my SOTB3 originals either, but I was able to make a working JST install with them long ago.. (in the Zone.. to complete the NTSC beast trilogy)

Retroplay · 30 January 2015, 22:46

3 more elusive NTSC versions added:

Prison_v1.0_NTSC
SuperOffRoad_v1.3a_NTSC
TipOff_v1.0_NTSC

Yes

Retro1234 · 31 January 2015, 11:02

Just tested Gods So far so good - larger screen Centered and the music seems to play at the correct speed in NTSC.

Thank You guys

ill try some more later - now playing Gods.............Thank you TjLaZer

: Will definitely try SOTB3 & SpeedBall 2

Im also wondering if most of these games dont have copylocks and use Manual Protection so the originals could be copied back to real floppy with tools like PowerCopy or eADFs made.

Good question. I took the Gods NTSC WHDLoad and copied the Disk.1 and Disk.2 and renamed them as ADF's and they boot and work on WinUAE, and when they load up they ask for the manual protection. I have a copy of the manual in PDF, and wanted to see if I could copy them to real disks. No juice. (Was hoping they are not copy protected since there is manual protection them!) Well, the files are not 880k images, and I tried to load them and make then into ADFs on WinUAE but got an error. So they seem to be copy protected disks as well as manual protection!

Anyone know how to copy these images to real disks? Wonder if we can use emulation and a Parameter copier or something and crack them to ADFs

Retro1234 · 03 February 2015, 11:03

I just used transdisk -w disk1.adf and seemed to boot entered the code and game loaded etc but didnt do much play testing - i.e dont know if the same copy protection is used = hard version etc but seemed like normal play.

TjLaZer · 06 February 2015, 04:02

Tried it and it hangs on disk 2....

TjLaZer · 03 February 2017, 23:30

added Carthage NTSC in the zone!

Retroplay · 04 February 2017, 10:56

Thanks, I suppose this is a different version than SPS2329 which fails to image disks with current installer ?

TjLaZer · 20 February 2017, 21:49

I think so, I imaged it with the installer and it worked fine. Also runs in NTSC where the other version hangs after title screen.

BarryB · 20 February 2017, 23:08

Zoned my NTSC copy of Battle Squadron if needed

Retroplay · 20 February 2017, 23:52

Thanks Barry & TjLaZer.

TjLaZer · 02 October 2018, 04:13

Got another one! Super Space Invaders NTSC! In the Zone.

Retroplay · 02 October 2018, 15:00

Thanks, added.

I see WHDLoad version has three supported versions, none of which is the SPS 0585 or 2480 version.

0585 = Can't start the game, it just keeps looping the intro
2480 = Unsupported

TjLaZer · 04 November 2018, 02:48

Xenon 2 NTSC uploaded to the zone!
