Hi there,

new to this forum. I got some disk images which seem to be missing here, some completely new, some are apparently different versions (hashes differ).
Is the latter interesting to you guys? Sadly i don't know how to compare them, to see if it just dumped differently or indeed a different game version.

Also i have noted an error, the game listed as "Tintin in the Moon" (or its disk images name) is wrong, the game is called "Tintin on the Moon".

Cheers,

troublemind

Just feel free to upload whatever you got, and we are to judge if it's any good.

Thank you. Sharp eyes such as yours will definitely come in handy. Please, if you find any more inconsistencies, kindly report in this thread.

Cool, will upload what i got in the next days.

Some of my disk images have scanned disks and/or box covers, as well as some others have scanned manual pages to solve the copy protections. Should i include these scans as well when uploading?

Sorry about that. Haven't dumped them myself, I just had them in my archive.
Maybe the others will be better, I will upload the rest over the next few days.

Sure, but please check if these games have reviews. We don't add any other files until after someone has written a review and the game profile has been created.

Ok, i uploaded some more disk images, plus 1 full game with review. Made one mistake, I uploaded floppy images with copy protection scans for Zak McKracken, but only after I uploaded them found the game entry was C64 while the floppy image was DOS. And then found there are already copy protection scans on there, so don't know if these files are needed. If not, just ignore them please.
