Flashback?

Flashback?

Thanks, now added to the list.

@Jon: Does that list mean Elite is now supported again by ADFFS?

No Wimp based games aren't supported by ADFFS. I can’t implement WIMP support until the OS has a means to programmatically task switch.

Hi, first of all - great work on the ADFFS project! It's amazing that you are spending so much of your spare time preserving all this stuff so that people like me can experience the Archimedes. I've managed to find and install all the games I wanted but I am having trouble working out how to get the obey scripts working. I find in the obey archive the filename that matches - eg. F1001501 for Alone in the Dark. I then replace !Run inside !Alone with that obey file. Make sure its file type is set to Obey. But when I run !Alone then I have some kind of 'path issue' - for example it complains it cannot find "IfThere" which seems to be called by that Obey script?

Your !Boot is missing some of the later additions, in this case !Boot.Library.IfThere. Either replace it with UniBoot2 or manually copy the missing bits from UniBoot2.

IfThere is built into later OS versions and was backported to RO3.11 via a Library extension.

Thanks! I installed uniboot2 and that solved the problem with BattleChess protection (overide !Run with the relevant obey script).
I've posted on the Alone in the Dark thread as that game is giving me a different error now =/
