If so Carl> can some kind sole please email it to me. I maintain one, the whole net could use it, so I'll post it. Thanks to everyone who has sent in stuff. Here it is: =============================================================================== A3000/AmigaOS 2.04 Program Compatibility List Version 3.3 of 06/19/92 Program Count: 376 =============================================================================== OVERVIEW: Please send any additions, alterations or updates to me at my e-mail address, Kent.Dalton@FtCollinsCO.NCR.com If possible, mail submissions in the same format as those in this list. That way I can just cut and paste them into the main list. I will try to make an updated list available for FTP on a monthly basis. Thanks to all contributors to the list! FORMAT KEY: Program Name: ------------- Alphabeticlical even for numbers please. Should give enough information to distinguish between versions, or between games that have very similar names. Type: ----- This should be from the following list of program types: Prefix with 'PD' if the program is public domain, shareware, etc. otherwise programs are assumed to be commercial! data for supplimental data disks to commercial programs or games. demo for demos of commercial programs or animations, (no need for PD). draw for paint, animation and design programs. game for commercial games. graph for rendering and raytracing. misc for programs not fitting in other categories. mulmed for multi-media products. spread for spreadsheets, databases, etc. word for word processors or other text programs. Machines: --------- FOOTNOTES: Footnotes are listed in any of the following sections. Their format is: /# # is the number of the footnote. Footnotes are listed at the END of the list. A3000 ----- . UNTESTED Y RUNS on the machine under at least system 1.3.2, no modification necessary Y:% RUNS on the machine, but only under the certain conditions. Patches and other third party assistances should be footnoted. % can include: 2 functions only under system 2.0. * functions, but there are mild GRAPHIC glitches on A3000. ** functions, but there are SEVERE GRAPHIC glitches on A3000. P PATCH required, see footnotes for what program to use, or how to do it yourself. C CPU CACHES must be turned off for program to function. F Fast memory must be disabled for program to run, (ie. NoFastMem). f Recommended that fast memory be disabled. This slows the game down and makes it more playable. Not applied to games that run better fast, and means game will still run WITH fast memory. B Preceeding F, C, or f. Caches or fast memory must be disabled during the boot procedure. This is usually for games that boot from the bootblock and won't run from workbench/CLI. See Recommended Utilities (below) for programs to do this. > runs on the 3000, but game SPEED is accellerated and game is difficult or impossible to play, (try Bf) S looses sound sporadically or has poor sound on A3000. K Works under kickstart 1.2 -- SEE FOOTNOTE (49)! N:% DOES NOT RUN on the A3000 under any known conditions. (no patches, CPU settings, etc.) % matches either: E fails due to a CPU exception, (any kind). O fails due to some other program error, and the program either freezes or does not perform correctly. Systems: -------- 2.x --- . UNTESTED Y:% RUNS under listed release of Kickstart 2.x on the A3000. % can include: ANY of the options to the 1.3 Y:% (except '2'). 01 Tested under Kickstart version prior to 36.207 02 Tested under Kickstart version 36.207 03 Tested under Kickstart version 36.209 04 Tested under Kickstart version 37.175 S Sound sometimes disappears, but probably only tested under 2.% and A3000. NOTE: The version of 2.x listed is the latest version the program was tested under. TN:% TEMPORARY NEGATIVE. Does not run under listed release of 2.x on the A3000, but is UNTESTED on A500 or A2000. X:% RUNS under listed release of Kickstart 2.x on the A500 or A2000, but DOES NOT RUN under listed release of 2.x on the A3000. N:% DOES NOT RUN under listed release of 2.x on ANY machine. HD -- . UNTESTED Y RUNS off a hard drive, but protection unspecified. Y:% RUNS off a hard drive, qualifier specifies key disk, manual, etc. or whether there is a patch do make it work, (should be footnoted). % can include: + Runs pure, no protection. A "assigns" must be made for HD copy to work, usually game disk assigned to HD drawer. K key disk required. M uses a "page 21, line 7, word 5" copy from manual method, or similar. P patch required, see footnote for what program to use, or how to do it yourself. N:% DOES NOT INSTALL on a hard drive by ANY known means. % matches either: B Disk must be booted as disk has custom bootblock. D Protection on disk makes it impossible to install on HD. System Friendliness: -------------------- SF -- . UNTESTED M% MULTITASKS with other programs. These programs will allow other programs to run AT THE SAME TIME. Programs that must pause to allow multitasking are in the 'F' category. F% FORBIDS multitasking. These programs will temporarily halt other programs from running, but will return control to the system either during a pause or after the program exits. T% TAKESOVER the system and either does not return control to the system, or crashes the system upon an exit. This is classic of many games. % matches: + Program can be started either from Workbench 1.3/2.0 or from CLI. - Program must be booted, either because it loads from a custom bootblock or it requires an old version of the Workbench (ie. 1.2) to run. 1 Program is more than one disk, but will only use ONE drive, (requires switching disks needlessly). 2 Program will use additional disk drives if available. A scale of system friendliness: M+ M- F+ F- T+ T- Friendly <---- ----> Unfriendly Game Ratings: ------------- This rating system is based on votes submitted in an Internet VIDEO GAMES RATINGS REPORT, and applies only to games. The poll is organized and run by Chuck Musciano, John Leo, and Eric Ng. They deserve applause for their efforts in providing this rating system. Thank you also to all those who submitted to the report. Information on the report can be found through regular postings in comp.sys.amiga.games and the organizers can be contacted through video-request@irss.njit.edu. (cont...) Rating date of this list: Aug. '91. . UNRATED as of last poll. x.x:# RATED x.x Average of votes for the game based on the following scale: 8-10.0 Worth buying at full price. 6-7.0 Worth buying at a discount, or if you're particularly interested in this kind of game. 3-5.0 Only worth renting. 2.0 Only worth playing for free, and only for a few minutes. 1.0 Worthless. # Total number of votes for the game. Recommended Utilities --------------------- The following list of utilities should be in every A3000 software collection. If you don't already have these utilities, they should be available on local BBSs, Bix, Genie, popular Internet FTP sites, etc. 'newzap' This utility can be used to edit DOS files byte by byte. Patches explained in the footnotes of this list can be applied with this program using the ASCII search feature, and by typing new data/values manually. 'bootcache' This program will disable CPU CACHES upon reboot of the system. This will help many programs work correctly on the A3000. 'disable' I wrote this program to expand on 'bootcache.' It will turn off CPU CACHES and/or FAST MEMORY in the A3000 during a reboot. This program will work under both 1.3 and 2.x. I will make an effort to upload this program to Genie, Bix, and several FTP sites, (ie. ab20.larc.nasa.gov). *** Get bug fix v1.0a to work under SYS1.3. 'setcpu' Will disable/enable CPU CACHES immediately, but will not survive a reboot. ('cpu' available with 2.x). Try to get version 1.6, as you can boot kickstart 1.2 with it, (necessary for some games). 'nofastmem' Will disable FAST MEMORY immediately, but will not survive a reboot.

Y:+ M+ 7.2:15 Footnotes --------- (1) Do NOT use Sierra's install on the A3000 as the program very well may corrupt your hard drive. The game can be installed by copying all files from each disk into one directory and running, no assigns are necessary. (2) Patch ('DMpatch') should be available on BBSs or some FTP sites, but only works for some versions of the game. (3) Patch can be done with NewZap, just replace all occurances of "df0:" with something you can assign, (like "f18"). (4) Patch available on many BBS's and networks will remove code-wheel protection. (5) Although it appears to work with only some graphics glitches, it will crash on some crucial screens. (6) Patch available on BIX (fixpop.arc). (7) Glitches so bad, it's almost unplayable. (8) Will run on 3000 under 2.0 but not 1.3 (past the cockpit scene). However, pressing ESC to get menus crashes the system. (9) Keyboard is touchy in 2.0. (10) Hangs under 2.0 during a fill of a patterned area. Fixed in version 3.25. (11) Dynamic Hi-Res pictures are scrambled, but patch is shipping from Newtek to fix problem. (12) Crashes arbitrarily... (13) Need "patchsonix" available on most networks (bix, etc.) (14) Graphic glitches on title screen, but runs fine. (15) Graphic glitches if run from workbench other than its own. For HD install, similar to (38). (16) Can't multitask if workbench is interlace. (17) Copying with Project D should make this possible. (18) Can be deprotected with Marauder II. (19) Patch called 'FastMax3' will enable you to place the ROMs on your HD. (20) For Firepower to work on 2.02, you must cancel the startup- sequence and start the program manually through CLI. (21) Appears to work under 1.3 & 2.0, but scrambles after tanks land. See also footnote 49. (22) Disk 2 only can be installed on HD. (23) Run NoFastMem before running game to slow it down. (24) Screen opens too large under 2.02. (25) I haven't been able to get the installed game to work on the A3000. (26) Practically unusable under 2.0, some jerky mouse movements result. (27) Problems under 1.3.2 and 2.0: selecting MIDI twice will GURU machine and frequently crashes on exit. Works fine under 1.3 (changes to serial.device cause the problem). (28) Runs a little slower on A3000! (29) The speed increase on the A3000 actually makes the game more playable. (30) Crashes predictably under 2.0 after a few levels. (31) Text strange under 2.0. (32) Requires dongle. (33) Similar to (38), just edit file "duel" and pick new name to replace tdboot:. (34) May need to "protect sierra +r"! (35) Buggy on A3000 - crashes at random; but functions most of the time. (36) Newer versions work, versions before July '91 won't. (37) Copy all files to HD. Change references of DC1: to DC2: in file "Dark Castle". Then assign DC2: to HD drawer. (38) Copy all files to HD, (except " " file!). Use newzap on file "Defender" to change all references of Defender1: and Defender2: to Defender3:. ONLY EDIT REFERENCES THAT HAVE A FILENAME ATTACHED TO THEM! Assign Defender3: to HD drawer. Run with both originals in drives, (or switch as requested). (39) Similar to (38), just edit file "FirePower" and pick a new name to replace FirePower:. (40) Crashes on exit on 2.0. (41) Will install with keydisk protection, but requires workbench 1.2! (42) Mouse pointer a little misguided. (43) Eject disk to quit. (44) Can't 'cd' to ms0: under 2.x. (45) Works only if linked to Dragon's Lair:Escape from Singe's Castle. (46) Can't see disk prompt under 2.x, just wait for drive to stop and insert disk 2. (47) Has many IO errors during play under 2.x. (48) No joystick control on A3000, keyboard only. (49) To boot kickstart 1.2 you will need a Kickstart 1.2 disk and version 1.6 of setcpu (a PD utility). Type the following at the CLI prompt: 'setcpu config 0 kickrom df0: keepexec' Then, when the machine reboots, put in kickstart disk. Old releases of setcpu had a utility called kickfile which will allow you to put the kickstart in file form to speed things up! -- /**************************************************************************/ /* Kent Dalton * EMail: Kent.Dalton@FtCollinsCO.NCR.COM */ /* NCR Microelectronics * Phone: (303) 223-5100 X-319 */ /* 2001 Danfield Ct.
