Supercars one disk version?

retrogamer · 18 May 2010, 14:33

Does anyone got this game?

Info taken from HOL.

Notes:
NOTE: The original version came on 2 disks, whereas both the budget re-release (on the GBH label) and the version from the 16 BIT HIT MACHINE compilation only came on one.

I have the Budged Release in CAPS-ADF Format.

Download here, not really.

Show my next ASI Release for Downloads.

Cheers.

Do you mean CAPS-ADF = .ipf ?
Or a plain 880KB .adf?

Just did a quick extended ADF in the Zone
seems to work ok, can someone just confirm what protection is on track 79.

Gremlin used a protection called Protoscan lool (what a piccie name :P)

Thanks for the info dlfrsilver

what exactly is that? is the disk cool? it seems ok or will be bugged?

dlfrsilver · 20 May 2010, 15:24

it seems to load ok from what i've seen..... try to test all the tracks

BrooksterMax · 20 May 2010, 16:20

I would be interested to know what the difference is, if any? Are tracks or cars removed from the one disk version? Will check it out.

Did you make the extADF from a real original Amiga disk?
Or did you make it from an .ipf image, in WinUAE?

dlfrsilver · 21 May 2010, 21:39

They surely used a compressor for best disk occupation

and then put them back in MFM format.

Retro1234 · 21 May 2010, 21:42

Just made from the IPF -
I have tried most Race tracks and they seemed ok but I dont know this game very well.

"my next ASI release" is meant to be taken literally: sun68 can do stuff on his own, just like Flashtro

I guess it should read: once he has time to do a new release, he will do it.
This will surely NOT be an extended ADF, only usable on lameulation

Certainly you can use them on REAL Amigas, unlike both of the others (extadf + IPF).

You could always copy the extADF back to floppy disk with PowerCopy

:Whats mfmwarp like at writing stuff?

Im sure there are people that would appreciate this

and intrested on how the game could fit on one disk
Ive got a bit of a bit of a fetish

for extADF I can write back to disk.

Galahad/FLT · 23 May 2010, 10:48

The 1 disk version has all the files compressed and theres junk on the disk to give the impression it won't fit onto a normal ADF.

Of all the files, three are uncompressed, which i've now compressed to ensure it will fit on a normal ADF.

It's just a longtrack and protection checks if the length of that track is >$1900 bytes. All other tracks: $1800 bytes.

Funnily enough I have a version nearly finished too which I may or may not finish now, I don't have time for it today anyway.

Retro1234 · 23 May 2010, 11:11

Whats the max length a standard Amiga drive can write
