Ambermoon open source remake in progress

[Pyrdacor]

I updated all versions and added ADF images for 1.09 german and 1.10 english. Should now work on all CPUs.

Game freezes in a similar fashion, and if i try to click on something, the machine reboots. Poor Dixie, stillborn warrior for the second time .

The included AMBER_J should work as a blank save disk (= all save states are empty and you can save on it).

Ok this was a bit misleading. What I meant was that I updated all zips/lhas/tar.gzs for 1.10 English and 1.09 German including the full versions and the fixes/patches.

1.07 and 1.08 German as well as 1.08 and 1.09 English might still crash on 68000 CPUs. It is just too much work to pack all that stuff in a careful way and I didn't have the time to automate this yet. But I guess the most recent versions matter.

I have been using AMBER_J from day 1 for my tests. Also, never questioned the fact that it would do the job, after having been preformatted to serve as the de facto Save Disk for the game.

Today I released Ambermoon.net 1.1 which fixes many bugs and includes the updated original game data versions.

Downloads as usual at https://github.com/Pyrdacor/Ambermoon.net or www.pyrdacor.net.

Have fun!

Today I released German 1.10 and English 1.11. Beside a huge amount of English character data fixes we could also fix two code bugs thanks to kermitfrog/tarbos.

First the uncurse spell now works correctly and the item skill penalties which is rarely used. The whip now has a parry penalty of 10, banded armour, plate armour and Knight's armour have 6, 8 and 10 attack penalty.

Downloads (including ADF images) are available here: https://github.com/Pyrdacor/Ambermoon

Changelogs can be found inside the archives.

@Pyrdacor

Thx for the new version! I've got this error however:



Any ideas?

Thx!

[Pyrdacor]

Yes something went wrong while creating the ADF images. I will fix them in the next days. Sorry.

[Pyrdacor]

Can you please retry (download again). I have fixed some issues in the ADF release.

@Pyrdacor

Same issue as before with the new .ADFs

I noticed that the following disks are significantly smaller than in v1.10:

Ambermoon v1.11 (2021-09-30)(Thalion)(Disk 4 of 10)(D).adf
Ambermoon v1.11 (2021-09-30)(Thalion)(Disk 6 of 10)(F).adf

Hope that helps tracking down the problem, thx!

Tried playing the game and got this error:

Pyradcor is experimenting with automatically generating ADF images from files as part of the release process and I don't think it's quite working yet.

Here is a small message from DamienD regardant the v.1.11

So I've done some analysis on English v1.10 vs v1.11 .ADFs.

These files are on v1.10 but missing on v1.11:

Ambermoon v1.10 (2021-09-09)(Thalion)(Disk 4 of 10)(D).adf
... 2Map_texts.amb

Ambermoon v1.10 (2021-09-09)(Thalion)(Disk 6 of 10)(F).adf
... 3Lab_data.amb
... 3Map_data.amb

I guess I could just copy them across from v1.10 disks --> v1.10 disks but just wanted to make sure that these files aren't ones that have been fixed?

No problem with manually copying the files needed on (F), but there is with copying the file required on (D):

See attached screenshot.

I think you may have dentified why the ADF creation hasn't worked
