Looking for Chrome / Chrome: SpecForce

1 Upvotes

Hi guys, apologies, could anyone provide a dl link or something g for functional version (especially for Chrome) for these 2? It can be pre installed / portable, wouldn't mind it.

Given both are old games, I reckon it should work fine as ported.

Thanks.

Anyone know where to find this game? EA removed it from the digital store. There are 2 sealed copies of it on ebay I could potentially get. I also saw a website selling accounts with the game on it. I tried to download it from archive.org but it wouldn't work properly.

The past few months, I've been working on a free software called ROM90 to make playing on DosBox and ScummVM a lot easier

6 Upvotes

It started as a personnal project, you see I love old PC games, I collect good old big boxes but settings up dos games has always been a pain in the ass lol

So I started working on this, which basically automates almost every painful steps of dos emulation

Basically you can add a rom you own in any format and ROM90 will automatically detect it and install it properly on either DosBox pure or ScummVM https://rom90.com/

I've also added a few well needed comfort features :

- Quick resume

- Universal save/load shortcuts

- Fully fledge save state manager

- Keyboard remapping and controller support

- Export options and batch exports for people to share properly their collection

and many more small QoLs that makes Dos emulation almost as easy as most console emulator

I also made a discord, if people need help or want to share their experience, gameplay, tips or collections

More info here : https://rom90.com/

I'm a bit nervous showing this to all of you I hope some of you will find it useful, feel free to ask me anything

What is my biggest hurdle to modding an old game?

8 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I'm rather new to modding in general so I'm sorry if I sound dumb. I am dumb but thats besides the point. I'll try to keep this short. if you need more info I'll answer in a comment.

There is a single player PC CD-ROM horse game series, called the Seasons Riders. it's a horse game released in 2009.
I want to mess around and try modifying things or adding new things to it for fun plus gain experience with modding.

My question is will my biggest hurdle be decompling to begin with or if there is any software issues I should be concerned with as I know the editor used to make these games are not open source.

The multiplayer game that came after, Star Stable Online, made with all the same assets and engine, or the 2017 version of it at least has been decompiled and used to make private servers. if thats relevant.
I imagine it would be easier to crack open the files in the older games as their single player and stored locally.

Edit: The engine is the Pixel Tales game engine or PX Studio

O Patrulheiro das Galáxias - Falta de Ar em Outro Sistema Solar [partially lost]

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone. I stumbled upon a relic at home and am trying to get it fully working.
Unfortunately, it’s a 30-year-old CD that isn't in very good condition.
It is part of the history of two entirely Brazilian games from 1996:

O Patrulheiro das Galáxias - Falta de Ar em Outro Sistema Solar
O Patrulheiro das Galáxias II - Prisioneiros da Tribo Verde

If anyone knows of good tools for recovering or cleaning an old CD, I’d appreciate any help available. I used IsoBuster and it worked (almost 100%). (I’m also making the ISO available here)

https://archive.org/details/patrulheiro-galaxias-1

I uploaded an ISO adjusted as best as possible (given the state of the CD). Note: I wasn't able to get the program running on Windows 11; I'm currently running it in an 86Box VM with Windows 98. I am looking for the missing files from the CD. I’ve already recovered most of them. Here is what is still missing:

Animations (these cause the game to crash if they are bad) (this is where the placeholders go)

PG1\IMG\C40\36FA.FLC — 1,444,884 bytes
PG1\IMG\C40\36FB.FLC — 1,089,792 bytes
PG1\IMG\C43\38FA1.FLC — 2,856,500 bytes
PG1\IMG\C43\38FA1B.FLC — 858,674 bytes
PG1\IMG\C43\38FA2.FLC — 830,082 bytes
PG1\IMG\C43\38FA3.FLC — 1,560,748 bytes
PG1\IMG\C43\38FA4.FLC — original size unknown

Sprites / palette

PG1\IMG\C43\PALETTE.BMP PG1\IMG\C43\FU38FAI.!PX

Saturn audio (dialogue becomes silent; usually doesn't crash)

Entire folder: PG1\SOM\DIALOGO\SISSOLAR\SATURNO\

PG2-0122.WAV through PG2-0142.WAV (PG2-0133 is missing from this folder) R2-0131.WAV through R2-0153.WAV

If anyone has the same CD, a dump, or these loose files, any of those would help. I don't need the full ISO if you can just send the missing ones.

I have always been a fan of Solomon Games (Boneyard, Keep) and I found out that SD was abandoned due to legal troubles and stuff so I decompiled the original game and used the assets to port it to web.

I added multiplayer, mod support, and made an attempt at getting it working on mobile.
