Collecting Crack Intros ?

A very difficult question:

There's a way to "extract" a crack intro and "put" it somewhere and
then "collect" several crack intros in a "single" disk collection ?

I don't think this is possible (it would be cool), however .....

Good bye, guys

You can copy intro/cracktro from ADF with ADF View if it isn't N-DOS disk and put it on blank ADF. With this program you can also create S folder and put in it startup-sequence file which you can create & edit in Windows Notepad.

Thanks Ultron , I taken a collection of cracktro / trainertro
from the second site of your list

and thanks to S2325 for the suggested procedure


but .... i have the possibility to make an adf that contains a
selection "menu" from wich choose the desidered cracktro / trainertro,
see it and then return to the menu again ?

I hope you understand what i mean

I apologize for my english

Goodnight

A project like that was started for WHDLoad with Galahad writing the menu system. It was never finished properly, and only about 5 groups had a menu with up to 12 crack intros in it.

From memory I did all the Razor 1911 intros I could find, I think about 12...

@Codetapper : i remember it very well

   Introduction
   ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
   Runner  consists  of  a  selection  menu  for  running up to 18 programs.
   However keep in mind that it does not work in multitasking, in effect  it
   is intended as a floppy disk boot menu.


   System requirements
   ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
   Runner  should run on  any PAL Amiga  (under Kickstart 1.3  or below, you
   must have the DOS command Run in the C: directory).


   Installation
   ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
   Copy Runner anywhere  you want (the  C: directory is  a good place).  The
   file  Runner.menu (the  menu file)  must be  placed in the directory from
   which you start the program or the SYS:, S: or ENV: directory.


   Usage
   ŻŻŻŻŻ
   Runner can only be started from a CLI/Shell window.
   After you  run the  program, a  menu made  up of  a title  and 18 buttons
   appears.  The labels and the  command lines of the  buttons are read from
   the text file Runner.menu,  editable through your preferred  text editor.
   It must have the following form:

      Title
      Label 1=Command line 1 ([Run|Execute] Program name [arguments])
      Label 2=Command line 2 ([Run|Execute] Program name [arguments])
        "
        "
        "
      Label 18=Command line 18 ([Run|Execute] Program name [arguments])

   You  can select the buttons by moving the mouse up and down. The programs
   can also be run by pressing the key corresponding to the letter appearing
   on the left of each button.
   By pressing the left mouse button (or the corresponding key) you  execute
   the  program reverting to the menu after  you quit the program itself. By
   pressing the right  mouse button (or  Shift + the  corresponding key) you
   execute  the program without reverting to  the menu (this is necessary in
   some cases).  By pressing  both mouse  buttons (or  Esc) you  simply quit
   Runner.


   Guarantee
   ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
   The  program has  been tested  several times,  but its reliability is not
   guaranteed at 100%. I (the author) do not consider myself responsable for
   loss or  damage of  data as  consequence of  the use  of the program. Use
   Runner at your own risk.


   Copyright
   ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
   The  program  is  CARDWARE,  therefore  it  is  freely  distributable  on
   condition that it is always accompanied by all the files in this archive.
   The whole archive must not be modified in any way. If you think Runner is
   useful, let me  know by sending  me a postcard  (preferred) or an  E-mail
   message.

   History
   ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
      1.0  - First release.

      2.0  - Increased the number of buttons (from 13 to 18).
           - Now you can run the programs by pressing a key.
           - Changed colors and font.
           - Now the menu file is searched in the S: directory too.

      2.01 - Tried to avoid the screen fluttering when the menu appears and
             disappears.

      2.1  - Extended the font (now all 256 characters are available).
           - Now the menu file is searched in the SYS: and ENV: directories
             too.

      2.11 - Some minor changes.

      2.12 - If a mouse or screen blanker was running and you started
             Runner from a screen with a resolution different than PAL, the
             program screen could result severely distorted.

In the Zone. Please remember that you can not/should not delete square symbol in end of each line.

i download the collection from http://cracktros.untergrund.net/
and when i try to run them on the amiga (Amiga 1200, Blizzard 1230 Mk-IV fpu 16mb ram ,4gb hd,cdrom) most of them have broken-distorted gfx anyone knows why ?

[DH]

Some and most will work on a base A500 Nofastram, others will need Fastmem, or 1Mb chip, or an AGA machine a 1.2 rom the 68040 etc. etc.

If you're using a real miggy for this then you're snookered, it'll be mostly trial and error.

btw. What machine do you own?

[_psy]

i own Amiga 1200 1D4 with 3.1 roms, Blizzard 1230 Mk-IV fpu 16mb ram ,4gb hd,cdrom , i love crack intros and i really like the music of them (most of my memmories is from the c64)

[DH]

Well, if you know what the cracktros are called, you could upload my excel list here http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=56359 to determine what configs you need to run the cracktros. Most base A500 cracktros should work on a base AGA machine, but there will be some that will fail.

I cannot, at present, upload my cracktros as it's still currently WIP. Once it's finished, it'll be up for grabs on the EAB file server, but don't hold your breath

EDIT: A great way to search for the cracktros is to find out the CRC32 of the files you have and search for them in the spreadsheet, nice and speedy

[_psy]

thanks i'll look into it

Sometimes Killaga or JST might work with gfx bugs

[Anakirob]

I have yet to find any old Amiga programs that will not run on my A1200 when I'm using The Ultimate Degrader and Enhancer.

[_psy]

thanks for the suggestions i'll try killAGA and tude for sure

Hello, do u know where i can find the version of celica gt rally with the crack here : http://flashtro.com/page.php?id=2483

Thanks for ur help ^^

[DH]

Well, it's not on the file server so I guess it could be a rare item. Unless it's hiding somewhere else that only TCD knows where

[TCD]

First I'd ask Musashi9 or mai

I dont have the version with this intro.
Again you are looking for a good crack?
Then you probably dont need the ADF with this intro, its the "Skid Row" crack.

The PDX crack is nice too No it was just because i like the intro (nice colors, nice dot waves)
I will look on the web to see if i can help too Thanks a lot for ur quick anwsers^^.
