Summary

0006385: CD and Disk install dont work with this version. - Also, no support for the German CD version - other fixes

Description

Hello there, (T_T)
I just wanted to report that nothing can be installed with the latest install.
(well, the install is from 2004 :)

The CD install wont work because the Installer requests the CD as volume
"CDTV_TEST" and the CD is called "Fears".

(tried to trick it with an assign but that did not work)

The German CD Version dont work at all. (copied the files manually and renamed the German executable to Fears_Uk > that also did not work.
(just as a test - dont want to play the censored one)

The Floppy Install Patch wont work. It requests the volume FEARS to be inserted in DF0: but the original are NDOS :)

There are also some slight graphic glitches on different configs (CD version)

A Red HUD for example or a graphic glitch in the main menue. (big white stripe on the right side)

CACHE support sould be also added back into the Floppy Slave.
(it was there before)

Mouse support and maybe some keyboard Stafe keybinding would be neat too.
(CD version)

A save function for the CD version. Blitter fixes for the AGA floppy version.
The optional removal of the Trainer;
that can cause 1111 Emulator ($2C) at $CCCCCCCC
Erorrs after leaving the trainer on certain hardware. (time dependent)

That would be great.

I think this Game from the Denish Demo group BOMB deserves way more love.

Anyway, just wanted to report that.

Greetings and thanks,
Torti
