Beneath a steel sky CD32

THX1138 · 28 November 2002, 13:29

I found the file Beneath a steel for the cd32 on <BTTR>
and i was just wondering if there is any way i can use
this on a real CD32?

Quoting BTTR :

"In the CD-Games section you can download CD images, grabbed from original CD32 and CDTV titles. All images which contain audio tracks have been grabbed in cue/bin format (these are HUGE!), whereas all others come in ISO format. You should be able to find burning software for your platform which supports both of these formats. You can burn CDR's with these files and play them on CD32 and/or CDTV consoles, but soon you can use them as well with the upcoming CD32/CDTV emulation support in WinUAE which Toni Wilen currently works at. With the CD-List we prepared a thread in our compatibility database especially for CDs, where the results of the tests with the new CD32/CDTV supporting WinUAE will be stored in (plus the usual info)."

I read that...but the file downloads in .zip form...not BIN or ISO ???

Mr Softy · 28 November 2002, 22:32

What's inside the archive?

THX1138 · 28 November 2002, 22:41

17 folders and 2 files..............

15 folders name disk 1 - 15

1 folder called "s"

1 folder called "libs"

I know how to burn a BIN file....i just don't know how
to create one !

Sorry mate I can't help you no further... Being non-techy and all... Hope someone qualified will bump into your thread...

To boot on a CD32 you have to create a cd which contains a CD32 trademark file. I've uploaded IsoCD to the zone which is the program cd32 cds were created with but you can use makecd with the included trademark files, too.

How do i get hold of this ?

29 November 2002, 10:01

Why don't you read the readme?

it says:

To get Beneath a steel Sky CD32 to work:
-extract all files to the harddrive directory of WinUAE. This
game can only be started from HD.
-copy the freeanim.library from the Beneath a steel Sky
LIBS directory into the LIBS directory of your WinUAE HD.
-then doubleclick the SteelSky icon and enjoy the game.

-real Amiga users have to do exactly the same.

You did not read my request properly Burseg.....on a
real CD32 !

rgen · 29 November 2002, 20:03

@THX1138 <How do i get hold of this ?>

It's in the zone

And a step by step guide:

1. Click Options, a new window opens, which i explain later.
2. Select the Source gadget and open your beneath a steel sky drawer (with steelsky, disk*, libs and s).
3. Select the image gadget and enter the name for the iso file (in a windows partition).
4. Select build.

rgen · 29 November 2002, 20:08

Step 1a: Select the CD32.tm file (unpacked from the zip file) to create a bootable CD.
1b: Give the CD a name.
1c: Click ok and go to the main window

THX1138 · 29 November 2002, 20:08

This is an Amiga program.........right ?

Do i really have to transfer 65 meg of Beneath a steel sky
to my Amiga just so that i can do this ?

If this is the way,i will do it.........

rgen · 29 November 2002, 20:11

oops, i forgot

click the examine gadget between step 3 and 4 !!!

rgen · 29 November 2002, 20:14

Yes this an amiga program (only amiga can produce cd32 images) but you can boot winuae with a simple workbench 2.0-3.1 disk to use this program.

3. Select the image gadget and enter the name for the iso file (in a windows partition).

I dumped the image into dh0:

Burned the cd and the cd32 came up with a red screen !
