Title: Archive request Post by robert2098 on 07.01.09 at 08:35:21
Thank you very much for having the archive online. It is great to see all major menu disks online in one place.
One request. Can you consider to put the "Persistence of Vision" demo compilation menus in the archive as well. The "official" website doesn't have the menus online anymore (dead link). Thanks and regards, Robert |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by Shw on 07.01.09 at 08:39:48
i'll see what we can do
I've got all the menus somewhere.. and MSD could provide the newer disks. shw |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by CJ on 07.01.09 at 09:27:28
Folder structure created - I'm sure Shw or GGN will upload them shortly.
|
Title: Re: Archive request Post by ggn on 07.01.09 at 09:28:34
I'm sure I have the official POV ISO. I'll extract the files and upload it when I can (No Fragments 4 is incomplete still ;))
|
Title: Re: Archive request Post by robert2098 on 08.01.09 at 09:15:55
Thanks guys. I saw you already created the the POV entry and uploaded lots of files. I suppose this is the POV CD ggn mentioned. But I did not see the disk images of the POV Menu Disks there.
In the mean time I searched my harddisk and found POV menus 1-165 as .msa files. So if needed I can send them to you. Robert |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by ggn on 08.01.09 at 09:52:49
Well, I'll eventually get to the disks, it's just that I didn't have enough time last night to upload the whole CD (and I don't like leaving the machine uploading all night long :))
|
Title: Re: Archive request Post by simonsunnyboy on 08.01.09 at 19:32:59
Great stuff - something like this was missing for quite sometime.
Do you plan to add No Fragments #2 - or do you consider that useless? In any case *thumps up* |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by ggn on 08.01.09 at 22:10:02
After the POV CD finished, it's time for NF2 now :)
Next request please ;) ggn (uploading stuff and ripping scrollers lately, will get back to fixing stuff when I get bored :)) (btw, post #400 \o/) |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by Icey on 09.01.09 at 14:54:52
Just wanted to say thanks for all the work you guys are doing and its great to see the menu archive, I was particularly pleased to see the sewer doc menus appear as i for one have certainly found them useful and think they are an often overlooked resource,The site i usually get them from it appears is closing http://pompeypirates.final-memory.org/news.shtml.
It would be nice to have the whole collection hard drive installable and searchable from a single menu dont you think? or is that wishful thinking Anyway guys thanks for all your hard work ,keeping my ste very happy indeed :) |

I think the Wombles would be more suited! :)

Title: Re: Archive request Post by jake_depression on 10.01.09 at 22:50:50
How is some The Bald Eagle/Guardians of Logik/New Order menus?
|
Title: Re: Archive request Post by CJ on 11.01.09 at 00:53:49
At the moment the archive is missing.... presumed... missing...
We've not heard from the ISP so we dont know what is going on. As for the request... We might host the GOL disks, but not TBE/New Order as they'd be classified under "couldn't crack an egg" (our clasification for people who just packed the .PRG file and wrapped the data in UltraLoad III [The Chunky Lumpy packer] claiming they were great!) |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by ggn on 14.01.09 at 13:05:47
News update: we're nearly back online with even more content :).
And I just had an idea: scanned manuals. Anyone wants to contribute? Please get in touch! |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by CJ on 14.01.09 at 13:07:35
Can we refine this to "good quality scanned manuals" please?
Some of those on replacement-docs are bloody unreadable! |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by Grunaki on 20.01.09 at 04:19:42
Thanks for the Archive - it's a great reference.
I've got all the POV menus if anyone needs them - I actually found them in a torrent from ThePirateBay that had all the STAX menus in there too (and a bunch of other crack menus that I already had, so I only got the parts of the torrent that I wanted..) I was wondering if you're going to feature 'Crazy Boy' menus, I have a few, but I'd like to fill in the gaps. Here's what I have: 10, 15, 21 - 30, 31, 33, 34, 36-39 and 44. (I think I got these off the Berlin FTP.) Anyone know how many of these menus there were and/or have any of the others? I'd also like to see a complete set of Zuul menus if possible. |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by Grunaki on 25.01.09 at 16:44:36
I'd also like to see a complete set of pre-Automation BBC Disks - but as it think was mentioned in this thread, Andy the Arfling's cracks didn't seem to 'take' well on later TOSes and the STE.
(I think most of the games the BBC cracked were on other disks by other crews though, so the intros are really all that matters..) |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by ggn on 25.01.09 at 18:42:11 Grunaki wrote on 25.01.09 at 16:44:36:
Nope and nope. They just bombed out on 4mb configurations. Grunaki wrote on 25.01.09 at 16:44:36:
CJ will tell us for sure, but I think that the BBC did all the work themselves. |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by jake_depression on 25.01.09 at 19:47:37
Thanks for the Archives.
Is there possible put Transmission CD inline for zipped? When there is Stax, next is mayby Serenade? |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by Grunaki on 26.01.09 at 01:58:29
[quote=ggn]Nope and nope. They just bombed out on 4mb configurations.[/quote]
I stand corrected. [quote=ggn]CJ will tell us for sure, but I think that the BBC did all the work themselves.[/quote] I wasn't implying that the BBC didn't crack the games by themselves - just that many games that they did crack have appeared on menus by other crews - therefore I (probably) already have them and (for me anyway) the Menu itself would be the most important part of the disk.. |

Hmm yeah I guess we could 'remaster' the menus if we got the titles :) |

Title: Re: Archive request Post by ggn on 29.01.09 at 20:49:50
I just checked - Stax is already online, available in No Fragments 2!
If you want, I can enable a page that links to that? |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by jake_depression on 29.01.09 at 23:51:48
No Fragments 2 ISO link not work.

Uploaded and updated html - thanks! BTW, big archive being uploaded atm - I'll announce it here when it's up :) |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by ggn on 08.02.09 at 20:21:57
It's been a while since I last posted here, but there are 2 new items on the archive:
- A polish FTP mirror with lots of game disk images and utilities. The images are mostly in FCopy pro .DIM format and lots of them are not readable by any emulator. However I have written a small util for this. So if anyone wants it, I can post it here! - A big Pasti collection. I have cleaned it up and killed all the dupes (from md5sums), so each image in there is unique. However if you spot any anomaly in there, please mention it here so I can check it out and fix it. |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by Muphex on 10.02.09 at 13:06:32
Just wanted to say great work on the archive chaps it really is superb!
|
Title: Re: Archive request Post by CJ on 10.02.09 at 15:00:19
Thanks, we still have a few more things to add to it - but it's getting there (death to planetemu and their bodgy download pages!)
If anyone has any disks we've got missing, stuff we don't have archived, new pasti images etc then please get it touch and we will add it for everyone to enjoy. |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by sh3-rg on 10.02.09 at 21:58:24
Thanks to grz for the info about the archive. I saw the lemming stuff. I remember there being a lot more re-issues by leon, there should be loads of v2s. I doubt he has them now except back at his mum's on floppies :) but they should be somewhere
|
Title: Re: Archive request Post by CJ on 11.02.09 at 00:11:13
if you have them, or anything else, let us know and we'll host them

Been away from the site and the scene in general last few weeks due to work issues and loss of the net due to house move, but I just want to say fantastic update to the site with the wealth of archives - Cannot wait to see what other delights you bring us
Great updates to the games too (I'll forgive you SOTB, at least it's all done now - no need to look at its shiteness again :P) |

Title: Re: Archive request Post by banditos on 12.02.09 at 12:13:53
Well to be honest, it's maybe worth to send my other stuff also to you:) Just that things are not getting lost. My collection looks as follow 30'174 files in 11.9 GB.. so if you have that space somewhere just give me a ftp account, username and pw:) and a couple of days you have the whole stuff...

Title: Re: Archive request Post by CJ on 14.03.09 at 14:24:11
We will let you know as soon as our hosting company (Streamline.net) let us know.
We're in "Discussions" (With a capital D) with them at the moment. Or we would be if they bothered to reply to support calls. |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by Grunaki on 25.03.09 at 04:15:55
I know I mentioned it before - but how about the Zuul menus?
Or Replicants? (or is that a touchy subject?) |
Title: Re: Archive request Post by CJ on 25.03.09 at 05:12:51
The archives (both of them) are on hold at the moment because we have differences of opinion with our hosting ISP over exactly what Business Class Unlimited Storage and Bandwidth means.
We think it means what it says, they (Streamline.net - avoid at all costs) think it means "delete things as you upload them, hastle you over your site, and delete your files without warning while never answering or replying to any support calls." Ahem. Mini rant over. |
