Title: Looking for a few old disks
Post by: James on March 09, 2007, 12:31:07 AM

I've been all around the net trying to find some old disks. I wondered if anyone here might have them somewhere...

// ST-01
That's right :) The original sample set disk for soundtracker.

// ????
There was this freeware clone of Dr Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine on Aminet at some point.. can't seem to find it anymore...especially as I don't exactly remember the game. But this version had the perfect difficulty setting...you could play for weeks. Here's what the game looks like pretty much.. this is the megadrive version...

// Palboot
A small disk (it basically is just a bootblock) to switch between ntsc/pal. Often used in the a500 days. There are utlities to 'append' a palswitcher to an existing bootblock on aminet...but they tend to ruin non standard bootblocks.

// Infofile
Very old filing program.

// AmigUtil
Super small Dopus-like utility.

I'd also like ST-01, can't seem to find an ADF of it...

Back in the day, I also had ST-02, ST-03 and ST-04 - if anyone could find those (though I don't know if they were "official" or not), that'd be useful too!

Though someone else may beat me to it, I may have an ST-01 kicking around here.  Can't make any claims as to it being "the" ST-01 of Legend, but it's probably worth a shot.

I also have a bootblock Pal/NTSC switcher tool known as ProBoot which I'll see if I can dig out.

Will post back in a day or so, how's best to get them to you?

Let's hope it's THE ONE :)

You could make ADFs. They're small enough to send even to an hotmail account. Mine's random_zak[at]hotmail[dot]com :D

For the Puyo Puyo clone, try this: Outfall (http://aminet.net/package/game/demo/outfall).

DOH indeed! And it's the real, very classic, uber-leet ST-01 from way back when! We definitely should hold a mod contest! :D

And thanks for the link to outfall! It's exactly what I was looking for :)

Message sent, though only with the Proboot ADF.  My ST-01 matches the one at Aminet - nice find!

I thought Minskies Furballs...

but it's a commercial game, and full of cats.
