I have noticed that these packs come with trainers (not all of them though), is this correct?

In a word correct, because the packs are made from cracked games and the trainers used to be added by the people behind the crack.

I know you've uploaded the cd32 version of prey. I've found an iso of the cdtv version if you haven't found it already.

@mrv2k: i have send months ago JOTD both Images (CD32 & CDTV) from Prey. Seems, that you must have enough RAM to avoid flickering for the CDTV Version. Hhm, i have 256 MB Fast RAM...

I crunched the file "MORENO\TEST" with RNC Pro-Pack 2.08 to lighten the RAM usage for preload in the preinstalled game.

Also, for those of you having problems with "Seven Cities of Gold", make sure you have the correct A1000 rom in \DEVS\Kickstarts.
The NTSC rom from TOSEC set isn't the right one, it has to be the PAL rom.

These are the needed checksums:

Code:

Size:	262144
CRC32:	ec86dae2
MD5:	1fa1f93d3d7b51271dd1356b8b2b45a9
SHA1:	16df8b5fd524c5a1c7584b2457ac15aff9e3ad6d

Is there a naming convention for the A1000 rom, or can I leave it as the Amiga Forever name (amiga-os-110-pal.rom)

Rename it kick31340.a1000

Hi all!

Found a while ago that Retroplay's install of Axis' "Big Time Sensuality" demo uses the corrupt disk version (the one that misses the word "time" during the singing).

Tried to make a new install, from the non-corrupted .adf files. But when running, it fails with an "Exception Illegal Instruction ($10) at $B5000 ocurred" error.

Could it be that the WHDLoad install only works with the corrupted disk images? Anyone else tried this?

Retroplay · 17 June 2022, 14:25

It's a very old install.
There probably wasn't a proper disk image around back in 1999 when this install was done.

[edit]
Filed a bug report about the issue.

Retroplay · 07 July 2022, 21:34

Armour Geddon NTSC v1.1 finally added.

In lack of original disk images of the US version I took a different approach.
I compared each US disk image from v1.0 installed game against PAL v1.1 installed game.
Disk.6 don't differ so I chopped off 6144 bytes and copied the missing data (Game Over sequence, disk. 7) and what do you know, it bloody works.

Smart Arse ;-)

No, no, it's "Smaughtarse"

Haha!

Was there a particular reason why Pinball Illusions never got updated to the 2.3 slave?

Retroplay · 06 September 2022, 15:24

That's a good question but you'll have to ask Killergorilla or possibly DeCreator why.
Slave was released a good four-five years before I did all the installing.

I'll add v2.3 in a jiffy.

Emetic Skimmer was released a few days ago, will you be adding it to your database?
