Changelog¶
v1.0¶
Welcome to the first version of RML Amiga! This initial release features over a whopping 200 stone-cold Amiga classics.
Of course, all games come with manuals, code wheels, hint books, posters, box cover scans, and all sorts of other supplementary materials to maximise your enjoyment.
About 70% of the titles run from an emulated hard drive. The remaining 30% are floppy games that require either no or only very minimal disk swapping.
Main highlights:
-
All Delphine, Horrorsoft/Adventure Soft, ICOM, Magnetic Scrolls, Lucasfilm/LucasArts, and Revolution adventures released on the Amiga.
-
All Interplay Amiga releases (their early adventures, The Bard’s Tale series, Dragon Wars, Neuromancer, etc.)
-
Iconic strategy titles and action/strategy hybrids such as SimCity, Lemmings, Pirates!, Populous, Powermonger, Cannon Fodder, Midwinter, The Settlers, The Perfect General.
-
100% working uncracked originals of Dungeon Master (v2.2 and v3.60), Chaos Strikes Back, and Fate: Gates of Dawn, which are notorious for their elaborate copy protections (and lots of bad cracks floating around).
-
The Amiga SSI Gold Box catalogue in its entirety.
-
The original versions of Eye of the Beholder I & II and their fan-made AGA remakes. These are the definitive editions as they combine the 256-colour VGA graphics of the PC versions with the superior sound of the Amiga ports (plus the first game includes the outro which was cut from the PC version due to disk space restrictions).
-
Many other RPGs that are either Amiga-exclusives (Perihelion, Amberstar, Black Crypt) or are best on the Amiga (Legend of Faerghail, Ambermoon, Captive, Knightmare, Moonstone: A Hard Day’s Knight, Starflight, Ishar series, etc.)
-
All AGI and SCI0 Sierra adventures (that’s all their pre-VGA adventures with the parser), with optional Roland MT-32 sound in the few games that support it.
-
34 Infocom text adventures with all supplementary materials (that’s every Infocom text adventure except for Border Zone which was never released on the Amiga).
-
A good selection of Cinemaware classics (Defender of the Crown, Lords of the Rising Sun, and It Came from the Desert I & II).
-
Arguably the best-looking version of Elite classic.
-
All Freescape games by Incentive (Driller, Dark Side, Total Eclipse, Castle Master I & II).
-
A handful of action game favourites (Pinball Dreams, Agony, Shadow of the Beast, Speedball 2: Brutal Deluxe, IK+, etc.)
Included software (all are 64-bit versions):
- WinUAE 5.3.1
- SPS Image Support Library 5.1 (CAPS IPF image plugin)
- ReShade 6.4.1 (with custom patch to disable auto-updates and the nag screen)
- 7-zip 24.09 (command line version)
