Do you know of, or believe you know of, Amiga software titles that have been lost forever -- no longer existing in any working form on this planet? I'm becoming convinced that Absoft AC Fortran is such a title. No doubt, there are a number of others? (I have been looking for a copy of AC Fortran for years, BTW.)

Lots of ppl have AC Fortran. Such as myself :)
All the software I ever wrote for C64 is probably lost and gone forever :(
The first few versions of Total Chaos OCS for the Amiga are probably lost and gone forever.
There is 1 specific version of BASIC for Amiga that seems to be lost and gone forever.
-
I've actually used AC Fortran in 4 flavours. Amiga, Mac, MS Windows and Linux, the Mac version is especially good. The Amiga version of Absoft AC Fortran is like the Amiga version of Lightwave, usable, but missing a whole lot of good stuff....
-
Which version of Basic seems to be missing?
-
Putty Squad was finished but never released. I pre-ordered and never got it. Such a shame as it was an awesome game. I wish one of the old mags had leaked a copy as it's probably lost forever now :(

Some of those compilation games disks. Like the one that had the cat vs mouse game. There was another one where you had to draw lines to trap a ball (the game was german).
Wasn't there a classic destroyer vs sub game for Amiga too.

I can't remember the name exactly but it was made by an American company... It might have been F-Basic.

@motorollin
Did you prepay it? Or just preorder it?

Will somebody please sell me AC Fortran with the manual? I'm in the US.

I actually pre-paid :(

I think that game is called "BallyV" and I'm pretty sure I have a copy of it on one of my old disks. I used to play it all the time.

Was it TrueBasic? I might have that around here somewhere....

The last incarnation of DaggeX was lost, sources and all, in an, at the time, infamous disk crash :)

@ motorollin:
Actually you can find an Amiga Power Magazine demo version here:

Yes, I know is a little satisfaction but....
Read the interview, really interesting.

Sorry to hijack, but did anyone,as I did, love push over ?

Do you mean that the Amiga version of Lightwave is missing a whole lot of stuff compared to the equivalent Windows/Mac version (version 5.0 being the lastest common one to all platforms). Or did you mean the Amiga is missing a lot of stuff compared to the *very* latest version ever released (which I think is 9.x)?
I'll agree with you on the latter, but as for version 5.0, from what I've seen, it was pretty much the same across all platforms it was made for.

Dynamic Drums was kinda cool back in 1989. Never seen it again.
Of course there were a few mods that I liked alot that I never found again too.

Thanks for the link, but I've already got the demo. I have also played through the SNES version of the game. It's awesome, but I would love to have seen it on the Amiga.

Yes! I love Pushover and still play it sometimes.

I could swear that I just saw Dynamic Drums as part of an Amiga system auction a couple of days ago on eBay????
