GBA v1.4 missing files

If it isn't officially released, then I guess I shouldn't mention that I'm missing the following 31 games after rescanning the 1.3 set and the complete current TOSEC set.

(They're not in the Rare Games archive, either.)

Edited: Sorry, dummy me, I scanned the wrong thing when I thought I scanned the new Rare Games archive. Now these are missing instead:

Realms of Arkania - Blade of Destiny_Disk9
Schwarze Auge, Das - Die Schicksalsklinge_Disk9
Shadow of the Beast II_Disk1
Shadow of the Beast II_Disk2
Space 1889_Disk3
Treasures of the Savage Frontier_DiskD

Oh it is officially released (more or less), I just haven't properly announced it on EAB yet because there were still some minor issues I wanted to figure out.

This is one of them.

Let me have a look at the list and get back to you.

TroyDavis · 24 May 2007, 00:43

You replied too fast.

Check my edited reply.

eLowar · 24 May 2007, 00:50

Yeah there were some updated files which I hadn't added to the Rare Games Update pack yet. I'm uploading a changed version including those files right now. Sorry, you'll have to download the whole thing again.

Edit 1: or come onto irc with a proper irc client, most of what you are missing now are around the 20k range.

Edit 2: The file is up now, too.

Edit 3: Okay, okay, I've put your missing files in the Zone.

One final missing file, this time in the screenshots:

l\Lemmings_2_-_The_Tribes_(Intro).png 5550 Lemmings 2 - The Tribes (Intro)

eLowar · 24 May 2007, 01:51

I have no clue how it happened, but somehow this ended up in the complete screenshot pack, but not in the update one. I've attached the missing files to this post and I'll upload the changed screenshot pack in a bit (uploading the complete rare games pack right now).

Thanks for the report.

Edit: Fixed screenshot pack is up now.

TroyDavis · 24 May 2007, 02:26

Thanks for the images. Maybe it would be worthwhile to generate dats for the screenshots and other files as well?

eLowar · 24 May 2007, 02:29

I don't know. The main point of the dats for GBA is to allow the users to use their own files and not having to download them all. That won't work with most of the non-game files though, because nobody's going to have screenshots with the same checksums.

krutknut · 27 May 2007, 17:26

What an excellent release! Thanks!

subone · 29 May 2007, 09:07

Hi and thanks for the release, especially for the WHDLoad function.
I missed 2 games : Mixed-Up Mother Goose_Disk1 and Ultimate Quiz, The. They are not in rare games ... in which pack are they or are they really missing ?

eLowar · 29 May 2007, 09:21

Those were already in a previous release. I'm not sure which or if they were included in one of the previous games packs (I don't have the big games packs I created a while back locally anymore, so I can't check if they were in them).

I've put the missing files in The Zone! for you, though.

Weeeeell, you may want to have a look at a little file called README.txt in the archive which suggests to run a little file called RUNME.bat which is also in the archive. If that's too much work, of course, you can zip them manually if you want.

SPS Fills are actually ADF disks that are required to run some of the SPS games from within GameBase Amiga, not a single IPF (says so in a footnote in the file archive). We do not spread any actual SPS files due to the connection with EAB (which has a rule against spreading SPS files or linking to websites that do) and to generally avoid trouble (which is also why we don't spread Kickstart ROMs and why we removed the APC&TCP music).

WRT GameBase Amiga SPS Fills (Complete V1.4);

After verifying available files I noticed the following file was missing - I believe it is an SPS fill - could you please advise if this is a fill file. If so then it is missing from the SPS fill pack.

SPS\2401\2596_Monkey Island 2 - Lechucks's Revenge (Fr)_disk0.zip

thanks

eLowar · 01 July 2007, 20:40

Hmm, that was already in 1.3 (and possibly earlier), I'm not sure how I left it out of this pack. Thanks for the report, I'll fix it as soon as possible.

I've attached it to this post, so you can have it right now. I think this is just another copy of the generic boot disk many of the games in GBAmiga use.

Note to moderators: This is an ADF.

Belgarath · 01 July 2007, 20:41

You're right, it is a fill file, although if you use the sps dat you'll find you already have it, it's just a basic bootup disk which is used many times but all with different names for the games that need em.

Michael G · 02 July 2007, 05:25

thanks eLowar and Belgarath for the file and the quick responses.
