Title: UFO: Enemy Unknown
Post by: reddwarfer on January 24, 2006, 09:15:09 PM

This is such an utterly all time classic game!!
Me and my mate never tire of playing it, the amount of detail and strategy there is involved is fantastic!

What I would really like is a weapons editor, that would just top it all.
What are your experiences with this fantastic game?

Yup!  Great game to play ... even the newer ones on the PC weren't bad, still kept the playability.

I just dug it out of my basement 2 days ago.  Box had some water damage in the upper right corner (CD32 version).  Played great on WINUAE using a 3.5 rom mounting only my CDROM as CD0: ...

HELP!  Can someone tell me how to enable the flashram to be stored to HD?

It will probably go on ebay once I give it another round...

Great game, one of my favorites!  I would love to have the source code to play around with trying to create variations using the same engine, or that weapon editor.  I wonder what language it was written in?  I think I have three versions of it (A500, AGA, and CD32) plus the free versions that came on an Amiga Format, or CU Amiga disk.

I don't think I have unwrapped or opened the box for the A500 version.

There is no 3.5 romfile? 3.1 was the latest one ever produced?

Does anyone know of a weapons editor that exists?

Wasn't the CD32 rom 3.5?  :-)

Nah, There are different versions of the 3.1 rom, because the hardware addresses and drivers needed are slightly different for different versions of the machines

Actually the CD32 had 2 roms.
the second contained the software for the loading screen and NVRAM manager.  Also the first "might" have included the chunky2pixel library for the AKIKO chip...not to mention native CD filesystem support.
