Thank you. Following games are verifed. (SHA1 of them are same as mine) (Verified) Abrams Battle Tank Falcon Starflight Lakers Vs Celtics and the NBA Playoffs --> Disk 1 is verified, but Disk 2 is bad dumped on the sector between offset:576BA - 576E4) --> But you can change(edit) the bytes as F6h. But I think the following game must be dumped again. (Unused/Unallocated sectors are Not same as original) GUY SPY and the Crystals of Armageddon LHX Attack Chopper Ivan "IronMan" Stewart Pff Road Racing World Class Leaderboard Street Rod Street Rod II I think they're dumped in 2014. I use the DCOPY.EXE for normal disk image on DOS. The following games are modified by SCORE or SETUP files. The Cycles The following copy protected games must be dumped by Teledisk or Kryoflux Airborne Ranger Arkanoid Gunship ----- Edited by ibmpc5150 at 15:35 on May 19th, 2016 |

Member Student Gumby Posts: 22 | Hi for some games i used Jim "Trixter" Leonard's DISK2IMG program. Curiously for the 2014 mentioned games yes, i did dump them in 2014 with a program called HD-Copy. But i have no problems in re dumping them with DISK2IMG or other tool. Can you also tell me what is the size in bytes of DCOPY.EXE you mentioned? I ask this because i have 2 versions of this program. One has 13694 bytes and the other has 17750 bytes. I found these 2 programs online and it seems these are not related to each other (maybe different authors). The issue with The Cycles i can probably do nothing about it. I dumped the program as i received it. Most of the games i buy come off of eBay. And i can dump the protected ones with TELEDISK yes. |

Member Zombie Gumby Posts: 3881 | carlostex, that's great, thanks a lot. Some files may not currently be online, but they are nevertheless still present on our FTP awaiting their turn to be processed, so some of your images may not be unique after all, but they are nonetheless still good backup! So yes, well done, man. Quote: And i can dump the protected ones with TELEDISK yes. Sorry to intrude, but you don't really have to do that. ibmpc5150 isn't exactly from staff here, so what he really wants is that you make an image for him (which he should've just said instead), not for the site since we do not as yet work with TD0 format. Just a formal remark. ----- Cheer up! Remember the less you have, the more there is to get. |

I just tried TELEDISK and both Microprose games don't work. TELEDISK says the disks are bad, even though i can play with them fine. |

Honestly, i never liked it, even though it's one of the few utilities that allow you to dump images along with CP, it's hardly applicable when it comes to donwright playing or testing images since you can't even properly mount that shit (i failed personally), so all you can do is copy it on a real floppy media along with their CP record. ----- Cheer up!

Member Prof Gumby Posts: 486 | I don't recommend to use "HD-Copy" to dump non copy protected disk. I think it is no problem to dump disk by Trixter's disk dump tool. Also, copy protected must be dumped by Teledisk or Kryoflux. If not, there is no meaning to dump copy protected disk as normal image. Teledisk image is for running on PCE emulator. (Not for duplication to another disk.) ----- Edited by ibmpc5150 at 19:34 on May 19th, 2016 |

But back in 2014 that's what i use. I do plan the dump all my games again with either DISK2IMG or DCOPY. BTW, you didn't tell me how much bytes your DCOPY.EXE has. I just uploaded some more games: Lakers Vs Celtics (re upload, i think its good now) The Games: Summer Edition Magic "MVP" Johnson Serve & Volley |

Member Prof Gumby Posts: 486 | I think there is no problem to use DISK2IMG. But to use DCOPY.EXE Usage : DCOPY A: DISK1.IMA You can downliad DCOPY.EXE from the following url. http://www.msxarchive.nl/pub/msx/utils/othersys/dcopy.zip I think "The Games: Summer Edition" , "Serve & Volley" is copy protected. |

Member Student Gumby Posts: 22 | I don't see the point of using TELEDISK as of now. I strictly use DOS machines, and maybe just maybe one day i get a SuperCard Pro to dump disks. For me i just need to have the disk imaged and then get some sort of crack. I got around 96% of PC booter games working on my Gotek Floppy Emulator. As long as the booter images have their copy protection removed all is good. |

(I only report the fact.) Also it is welcome to dump copy protected disk it by SCP. But I don't prefer to crack (remove) copy protected original disk. So I run copy protected disk on PCE or real old PC machine. |

What i meant was: dump the disks and then use a crack when you install the game on hard drive or to create a disprotected copy to floppies. |
