Default Re: Secret of the Silver Blades Purple Dungeon walls for FRUA?

Yes. The Amiga versions of the gold box games have the best graphics. & The C64 versions are a bit different. Maybe not as good but they are nostalgic and also my first experience playing the games were on a C64. Thanks for assembling some .PCX's. That'll be great to see and use.

For the YT videos I just used the emulators to record the videos. For the SotSB Amiga vid, I used WINUAE. It requires a kickstart rom. (Unless you have a real Amiga). I picked up the Amigaforever program a while back which contains the kickstart and allows emulation through WINUAE.

Info on recording videos with WINUAE can be viewed at the link below.

& for the SotSB DOS version vid, there is an option within DOSBox that allows video capturing.

You need to have at least DOSbox version 0.65, though I heard some people had some issues with recording with 0.65, so i went with DOSbox version 0.72.

Inside your DOSbox folder there is another folder called zmbv. Open the zmbv folder and inside you will find 3 files.

a readme file
a zmbv setup file
a zmbv.dll file

read the readme, then right click on the zmbv setup file, then click install.

Once the zmbv setup is complete, start up a game via DOSbox or through D-Fend Reloaded etc. and when you are ready to record a video, press CTRL-ALT-F5.
Then to stop/end the recording, you have to press CTRL-ALT-F5 again.

You will find the video output file in a type of AVI format.

If you are using D-Fend Reloaded, the video file will appear in a folder called Capture which is located within your D-Fend Reloaded folder.

If you are just using DOSbox without a front end, then check the Capture folder within your DOSbox folder
