Looking for several Amiga Games (hard to find anymore)
« on: September 16, 2007, 03:11:18 PM »

Ok 100000 years ago I had WINGS / Settlers / Pirates / Stunt car driver death mask
etc etc etc etc etc....

Now 20 moves later i cannot find my games box...
I am looking for them again to show my kids there were cool
games back when Dad was a kid...


I would like to buy these lord only knows ebay and the other dealers no longer carry them..

I have several Amigas and wanted to show the kids what these games and others looked like on the platforms but damn I cant find them anywhere now I did find and lose a bis 2 weeks ago on ebay for wings since then nothing dry as a old bone....


If you have these titles and more and want to sell them I ready to wire you on paypal..

Just want to get these titles back..


Joe..

Be sure to get a null modem cable so that they can play stunt car driver in competition.  :-)

Wings and several other Cinemaware titles are available for free at their website.  You'll need to create an account and look in "the Vault" section.  The files are compressed in ZIP format, and in turn those contain ADF disk images.  Check Aminet for several utilities to convert those ADF images to regular floppies.

ADF Blitzer will write adf images to an Amiga disk once you get the files over to the Amiga.  To get them there you can use Cross DOS or FAT95 (on the disk I sent you) to read a 720k floppy disk from the PC.

Note: To format a medium density disk to be readable if written by a high-density PC floppy drive, you may have to run the disk under a magnet to erase it completely.  A true medium density drive, such as the one that your A2000 came with, has a wider head than a high-density drive and may get confused if there is old data written along the edges of some of the tracks.  The correct way to format a 720k floppy on the PC is to pop up the Windows command prompt and type "format a: /t:80 /n:9" without the quotes.

I read in your other thread that you have a cdrom on your a2000.. Then all you have to do is burn the adf files onto a cd-r, download adf2disk from aminet, copy it to the C drawer in WB/HD and finally open a shell/Cli and browse to your adf files and type: adf2disk filename.adf and then insert a blank floppy. Quite a bit easier than fiddling with serial cable or crossdos   :-)
