It's great having all these new games and discovering classic games like rick dangerous etc. some of the discs are mis-labelled so you never know what you're going to get when you load it up :) |
||||||||
|

bah! im a dummy. i think i've forgotten how to use crossdos.. :S i have CrossDOS 6.0 Pro... i think its so you can read IBM formated disks (i never thought i'd say that again) on your Amiga... not the other way around.... the thing is that loads of the games have MODs as there game music :D and i was hoping to have a listen to a few!!! |
||||||||

SpeedBall 2 is pretty good on the Amiga :D I found i had Stunt Car Racer... Check out "it came from the desert" that was a cool game!! i love when you'd get injured and you'd wake up in hospital.. and then you make a break for it in a wheelchair!!! CLASSIC! |

Mods are so much better than midi :) |
||||||||
|

|
|
I think I have that, but it says it needs to be "disk doctored" where is disk doctor? Is it part of workbench? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

"Mods are so much better than midi :)" I remember trying to explain MODs to my Music teacher when i was in the 8th grade...and saying that they were better than Midi hehehehe :) |

||||||||

||||||||
|
|

||||||||

I love the names of the amiga chips, fat agnus, paula power, video hybrid. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I'm not sure- it'll be awhile yet as I need 2 of my flatmates to move in properly so we can go 3 ways on broadband costs... |

I was playing "unreal" (not the FPS ;) ) on my amiga last night. Very good game (technically at least) for the time. I've found I have a boxed copy of speedball 2 with the manuals all in mint condition. To my annoyance, whilst I have the box and manual to alien breed, the disk is missing :( I really liked that game when I played it on the pc... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Like you, I tend not to use my PC for games much anymore. I think it's because I'm in front of a PC all day at work, I don't find it very relaxing doing it at home as well. I'm glad I have my amiga & GBA to play games on :) Last night I was alternating between making music & playing amiga games. Whenever I got stuck with the music I just had a quick go on stunt car racer. |
||||||||

I've realised that my 4 channel micromixer will allow me to sample from my amiga to my PC admittedley in mono-but both L&R channels will be recorded rather than just one. Time to get sampling the "Sayit" program I think :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Does anyone know of a utility for the PC that will allow you to format floppy disks so that they can be used on the amiga? I want to make use of all those old PC floppies I have lying around... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my Amiga 500 has a Double Density drive so i couldnt do that :S |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love my Amiga, I'm going to put a load of old music progs on it and make some noise tonight. }:) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That sounds kinda pornographic mate. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ya gonna make some mods???? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hahaha! ah leave me alone :P (joking) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

Sampling a BBC Micro is cool too. You can have it lighting up a keyboard on the monitor while pumping out square wave loops and stuff. Run those thru filters alternating left and right and you can really mess with peoples heads. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If you just slip your double density in here, Harold will come along and blow it.............................mmmmmmmmmm |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah well i'm kinda wanting to make some noise on the amiga for messing around with later. No mods, just sounds and noise to sample. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
giginger..... thats enuf :P heheheh nah carry on! :D spikee -- damn... you got any of your old mods lying around?! i'd love to hear them :D |
||||||||

"SpeedBall 2 is pretty good on the Amiga :D " I was playing Speedball 2 at the weekend on the Megadrive. It's a shame that the megadrive version never got the same degree of recognition- personally I think it isn't that far off the Amiga version. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"Another win for Brutal Deluxe!" I used to Love the team names on Speed Ball 2! "GET..READY!" "Rrreeplay!" ...."Icecream!!!" used to love that speech :D |
||||||||
|

"I never understood what the point in a second drive (I know you can have one) was?" Following evenings spent playing shadow of the beast and switching the 2 disks 5 times every time you die (surely they could of programmed it better than this?), I retract this comment fully! I definately want to get a second floppy disk drive for it :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah i found that the 2nd drive was worth getting for games bigger that 1 disk! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
My mate is looking for a "squirrel" scsi interface & zip drive for his amga 1200. Do they still make them (I've looked on the web, but can't find them)? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'll have a look in the bin where I found my Amiga 500 Ceri hehehe ;) I would expect a heap of shit isnt being made for Amiga computers these days... sadly. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That just sounds bloody funny. A squirrel interface. Do you insert stuff in the squirrel and depending on how it's grooved it makes different scratch patterns and loads the program. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Probably. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have an external floppy for the amiga for sale... and a technosound pro 8bit sampler |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that amiga sure was nice. i always wanted one. yepp. whenever i use fasttracker i get nostalgic :) |
||||||||
|
|

I was playing it came from the desert 2 last night. What superb music! I'd played the first game on the PC a bit and wasn't too impressed, but this one is great. Changing the 3 disks every minute can get a bit annoying... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, amiga music was pretty impressive for its time! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
All this talk about the old amiga got me to dig out mine from the cupboard under the stairs. I have about 25 disks full of octamed mods ripped from various games, demos, etc. I've been transfering everythng over to use on winuae emulator. i'd forgotten how addictive james pond 2 and prince of persia were :) anyone got a working asf of turrican 2? mine crashes winuae |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And I found silkworm on a misslabelled disk. I remember that from the spectrum :) Anyone know of anywhere that still sells blank amiga disk in bulk? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
OCTAMED! wooo! "Amiga Nuts......POWER!" Im hoping someone knows what that means :S Ceri: are you sure you cant just format them with your Amiga?! Just slap them in and format?! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Can't the amiga just format regular high density floppies as double density? Not sure about it, when I were a lad we never had owt as fancy as high density. new fangled gadgets |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'll have a look for Turrican 2 tonight, If I have it i'll mail you Xceque. I have loads of adf files. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'll have to try that. I did see a batch of 110 blank amiga disk for £4.99 on ebay, but I'm not signed up on ebay and it's a lot of hassle... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Is there a way of getting amiga rom files (asf?) on the pc onto amiga formated disks? I tried putting amiga disks in and my PC can't read them :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Amiga use a dif file format. there is a way but I forget. I used CrossDos. Hmm.. I made my own adf files on an Amiga but i'm not sure how to do the reverse. I'll look into it. |
