Andy's Emerald mines MIA list

[Warlock99]

Well, here's my MIA list for just one game - emerald mine. The emerald mine disks unfortunately span hundreds of disks.

Emerald mine are clones of the original boulderdash games. Anyone following EAB for a while might know that the official Emerald Mine Club in Holland was selling a cd for a ridiculously silly amount. Look at this site if you think you're rich enough to buy the cd:-

http://www.a-biz.nl/emc/

Not surprisingly no-one seems to have this cd, but if you do, then get in touch and I will try to sort out a deal with you.

The site at least includes an handy list of most but not all emerald mine games, totalling approximately 550 disks! I've since discovered that there are more though too.

After you recover from the shock of the price. You'll discover that there's a few sources of emerald mine stuff for anyone wanting to get up-to-date on this stuff.

1.The Amiga Tosec collection includes nearly 300 emerald mine games.

2. There's also the emerald mine web site:-

http://amiga.emucamp.com/emerald/

3. You can also buy an emerald mine cd, originally a cdtv/cd32 release, which includes about 200 emerald mine games, unfortunately none are in dms format. Maybe someone could have a go at converting these into disks.

4. Another good source of emerald mine games is PD cd's, because a lot of the emerald mine games weren't commercial.

Over the last few days I've sorted my emerald mine disks from my cd's and sorted out which games exist and which games i need.

If you upload then I'm sure these games will find their way to tosec to be available to everyone so it's all in a good cause, rather than pay for that bloody cd!

I'd be really grateful if anyone can upload any of the missing games.

I'm sure I have others on DAT, but you know that drill...I'd like to get a copy of you master Mines listing.

[Warlock99]

Some names are a bit ambiguous and often named wrongly on my cd lists. So, I'm still trying to figure the mess of naming out.

Also some disks are known as other names. I'll get a list together of alternative names for these games and I'll update the list as i go through the disks and figure out the proper names for the other ones.

Could you post the laser games and the junior chaos cave twisty. I'm not sure if i need the others yet. I'll post my listing soon too.

[the wolf]

Hallo Warlock, nice to hear you again.
I sent you some simulmondo games series, months ago, do you remember?

I've searched on my CDs and here's what I've found:
Denmine 15
Downunder Mine 21
Emerald Mine 4 - 9
GB-Mine 1-2-3
Normal Mine 6
Rock'n'Roll Mine 3
SB-Mine 8-10 (AGA)
Spooky Mine 1-10 (AGA)

If you are interested, tell me and I'll post on The Zone ASAP.
Cheers.

[Warlock99]

Excellent mate! Some really rare ones there. Yes, please upload all of those, tell me if you need any others for yourself too and I'll upload those in return.

Twisty, thanks for your comments, could you upload laser mine disk and junior chaos cave. I've got the others that you mentioned.

Come on everyone, upload ya mine disks. hehe!

[Warlock99]

By the way i've managed to convert games from the "oh no more yams" series from that emerald mine cd into disks using a game from the same series as a template.

Only thing is, the picture at the start doesn't match up and also the text on the main menu stays the same and doesn't change to the name of the new mine.

There is an emerald mine editor but i couldn't get the renaming function to work. Does anyone know how to do this?

Maybe the picture can be sorted out with deluxe paint or something, i dunno.

I'll upload a couple of the games i've converted if anyone wants to have a go.

UPDATE!

I managed to rename the forgotten mine 1 to 2 using emerald mine editor and it worked fine! This one didn't have a picture. If some games don't appear in this forum I may convert some from the emerald mine cd. I'll wait and see first though.

[Twistin'Ghost]

I know that I have some of the 'Yams' series on my Amiga from my BBS days. I got caught up in some other stuff and forgot to up those ones this weekend. I will get on it. I just upped Junior Chaos Caves and will finish up when I get home.

[Warlock99]

I've uploaded listings for the emerald mine stuff. I've split it between several lists for ease of reading.

[Warlock99]

Quite a few emerald mines can be found on the Nordlicht collection of disks. This collection can be found on the megahits 3 cd-rom.

If anyone has this cd-rom, could they please upload the games that I've referenced on the list above.

update!

Duke has very kindly sent me all the mines on the nordlicht disks. I'll upload them all to the zone in a minute for everyone! Thanks duke!

[Warlock99]

Apparently, there's a version of boulderdash for the PC. The interesting thing about it is that amiga levels from emerald mine adf's can be imported and exported from the editor. It also has some support for c64 levels too.

Payment can be done in several ways: Put MONEY IN AN ENVELOPE and send it to us.

More proof

If you send your own currency then we'll convert it for you and inform you of the result.

I'm sure you will...

Emerald Mine can also be played on your PC with the FREE downloadable WinUAE Amiga emulator.

I realy dont think you would care after paying £250 for a CD

Oh well..

[Fred the Fop]

Somebody unstickize this thread......

[Twistin'Ghost]

Actually, it's probably still relevant as a sticky since the missing games on this list are still missing. Maybe I should add a Mine field (pun intended) to the TGMIA, then we can unstick this one?

[DPainter]

Maybe someone can update Andy's MIA list (via latest TOSECs and this thread) and then Twistin' can combine it with his MIA thread and then I can pop open some beers and start digging through my latest haul....

Keep up the good work andreas... MINE MINE MINE!!!! I still have a few floating around here not in toesuck, but.. after yesterday, perhaps I have lost 400gb of data, impossible to access at this point in time anyway.. frigging reject computers!

[andreas]

Thanks for the kudos.
Well, I bet you too could indeed fill up some bigger gaps, if you knew what is inside of all those "unlabeled" disk images of yours

but.. after yesterday, perhaps I have lost 400gb of data

HOW MUCH?
Oh f*ck oh damn...:eek :eek
(And I would usually complain if I lose mere 15 gb of data...)

[Duke]

I have attached a list of emerald mine disks with their original filename. Might help in finding some of those.
