[Adventure].zip - tagged as [a1] because it is different than an installed version you'd get if you ran the v1.01 installer. There are minor byte patches between the two, mostly text strings but not in a hacky way, so I think both were official releases. * Alpha Waves [h1][b1] (1990)(Infogrames) [Action, Strategy].zip - Hacked title screen, EGA only. May be an early prototype version? * Atomino (De) [h1] (1990)(Psygnosis Limited) [Strategy, Action].zip - loader "cracked by TDT" * Atomix (1990)(Thalion Software) [Strategy].zip - intro changes drive letter to A:. should patch it. * B.A.T.

[Action, Adventure] - The keyboard commands are kinda' screwy, Z = Left. X = Right. ' = Up. and / = down. Mouse support is spotty. Mine didn't work. * Clive Barker's Nightbreed- The Action Game [a1][b1] (1990)(Ocean Software Ltd.)

Likely used, but perhaps can be merged with other copy to restore to original state someday. * Electric Crayon Deluxe- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles- World Tour v3.0 [a2] (1990)(Merit Studios, Inc.)

Also includes original files, which might be useful someday to un-crack this game * Explora III- Sous le Signe du Serpent (Fr) [f1] (1990)(Microvalue) [Adventure] - patched to work from any folder, not \EXPLORA3. Don't need the installer anymore. Unfortunately due to torrenzip and the installer itself, all the file dates were destroyed. * Expo (Tandy 1000) [f1] (1990)(RufusPro Software, Brooks deForest) [Role-Playing (RPG)].zip - files were incorrectly named in available download from bdf's website. * Exterminator [a1] (1990)(Audiogenic Software Ltd.) [Action].zip - single byte difference in .exe file. Likely not a crack difference. Both are LZ91'ed, so neither may match an original disk. * Eye of the Beholder v1.4 (1990)(Strategic Simulations, Inc.) [Action, Adventure, Role-Playing (RPG)].zip - crack:

Not technically bad, but needs some fixing up. * Golden Axe (Installer) [h1] (1990)(Sega Entertainment Inc) [Action].zip - Also known as "Super Golden Axe", released in 1994. This is a trained version of GA where you can apply different mods to characters before starting the game. * Gremlins 2- The New Batch [a2] (1990)(Elite Systems Ltd.) [Action].zip - Uses a different loader, including a thing to force to EGA even though the game seems to run fine without it. * Greyhound [SW] (1990)(Dogware) [Simulation] - Mentions greyhound 2 as of summer 1993, file dates are 1993, but says (c) 1990 in the 2nd title screen.

Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, Vol. I (1990)(Interplay Productions, Inc.) [Adventure, Role-Playing (RPG)].zip - occasionally gets hit by virus scanners because "install2.bat" deletes a file. This is an overzealous virus scan problem, not a fault with the game. * Joe Montana Football [a1] (1990)(SEGA of America, Inc.) [Sports].zip - montana.exe "infected" with MsDos signature at end of file. Non [a1]'s rawcopy TSR patch doesn't seem to work well with dosbox, but patch here seems to be ok. * Joe Montana Football [a2] (1990)(SEGA of America, Inc.)

[Sports].zip - different 1 byte crack. It would be nice to find an original, uncracked so we can merge these back together * LHX- Attack Chopper [a1] (1990)(Electronic Arts, Inc.)

Could be where savegame data is stored, in which case this [a1] is cleaner than the non [a1]. Also, beware the batch file that specifies where the game is run from. * Operation Stealth [a1] (1990)(Interplay Productions, Inc.) [Action, Adventure].zip - VGA Only. Operation Stealth [a1] (1990) is VGA only. The earlier version already in TDC supports multiple types of graphics, but it has a problem with flickering in VGA. The VGA-only version does not have the problem, which may be why it was released a few months after the earlier version. I also noticed some different graphics between versions, such as the pilot's visor in the intro. A crack TSR made by Mok is included. * Overlord (1990)(Virgin Mastertronic Ltd.)

[Role-Playing (RPG)].zip - not sure if this is dosbox or other, but the installer specifically is looking for xeen.arj, yet the supplied arj files are named xeen.a00 -> xeen.a06 which confuse the installer. Renaming the first file as .arj gets you further but not enough to get through the installation process. * Monopoly (De) (1993)(Supervision Entertainment Ltd.) [Strategy].zip - crack:

[Action].zip - different .exe file, uses RAYDEN * Nick Faldo's Championship Golf [h1] (1993)(Grandslam Video Ltd.) [Simulation, Sports].zip - tiny loader/cracked by mr cooldude. Not very invasive. * Oxyd Magnum! (En)(Fr)(De) [h1] (1993)(Dongleware Verlags GmbH) [Strategy].zip - Compared to the non [h1] there is some minor text difference in the level code input dialog. I do not know which one is the original! * Pac-Man v1.08 (De) [h1] (1993)(Christopher Salomon) [Action].zip - cracked (registered) graffiti on credits screen. * Peter Pan- A Story Painting Adventure (Installer) (1993)(Electronic Arts, Inc.) [Adventure, Educational].zip - uses duplicate filenames across disks. use the pre-installed one before killing yourself with this. * Playroom, The [b1] (1993)(Broderbund Software, Inc.) [Educational].zip - I believe this is a module for Broderbund's entire "playworld" universe and thus installed into a larger system. The game is standalone but does not launch properly I believe due to dosbox not parsing batch files correctly. Launch the game instead by running playroom.exe from the playroom folder. * Porntris [a1] (1993)(Sexxy Software) [Strategy, Action, Adult].zip - Slightly smaller than non-[a1], which might be a patch. Needs investigation. * Protostar- War on the Frontier v1.10c [f1] (1993)(Tsunami Media, Inc.) [Simulation, Strategy].zip - Patched version from hotu. "ProtoStar patched and "tweaked" to patch #1". We're not sure where the patch came from? * Reach Out For Gold (Installer) [a1] (1993)(Linel Software) [Sports, Action].zip - oddly hacked install.exe which changed lha decompression to "pkz", which means that all of the installer archives also had to be repacked. I believe the non [a1] is more correct. * Reaping the Dungeon v1.1 [SW][a1] (1993)(Frontline Software) [Adventure, Role-Playing (RPG)].zip - different phone number in .exe and supporting docs. technically a hack, but probably done by the author. * Ruckus Poker [a1] (1993)(Villa Crespo Software, Inc.) [Strategy, Cards].zip - modified (hacked?) player message text files. Appears to also have a recompiled .exe. * Ruckus Roulette [b1] (1993)(Villa Crespo Software, Inc.) [Strategy].zip - missing CBS2.EXE, possibly other files. Best known dump. CBS2.EXE added. This game has been ripped from the coffee break collection compilation, so the batchfiles are out of context, but the game is 100% functional. * Sam & Max Hit the Road (Installer) (1993)(LucasArts Entertainment Company LLC) [Adventure].zip - you'll need to change DISKx.ID to DISK.ID as install progresses. disk.id #1 is never checked, but 2-7 are, so DISK.ID in this archive is already set to #2 to save you some time. After installing, copy crack.exe into installed directory and run it. At protection screen, click on PUSH ME and wait. It should boot you into the game! - crack:

I found if you try to change the path, type in a new one and then press ESCAPE instead of enter, then it will install. * SimCity 2000 (Installer) [a2] (1993)(Maxis Software Inc.) [Simulation, Strategy].zip - Both a1 and a2 have minor (2 bytes) changes in the same location on all of the video driver(?) files. This culminates in different simcity.exe and .dat files after installation. I don't think this is due to corruption, I think each game, like simAnt, is somehow tagged. * SimCity Classic v2.0 (Installer) [a1] (1993)(Mindscape, Inc.)

* Simon the Sorcerer v3.0 (Installer) [h1][f1](1993)(Infocom, Inc.) [Adventure].zip - install.dat script hacked by TDT and fixed by hargle to not require 3 floppies. install.da_ is the 3 floppy version, but it is still graffitied by TDT * Simon the Sorcerer v3.0 (Installer) [f1][a1] (1993)(Infocom, Inc.) [Adventure].zip - taken off original floppies, modified install.dat to not require 3 disks during installation from hard drive. This appears to be a different version of the game, but still says 3.0 when you dig around in the .exe. Luckily the TDT TSR crack works on this version too. * Space Elimination (1993)(Electronic Arts).zip - not a game, or at least it's a fake. Contains parts of eagle eye mysteries and parts of doom with a potentially virused/trojan install.exe. Removed from master list database but noted here for future reference. * Space Hulk [a1] (1993)(Electronic Arts, Inc.)

Including bug-report in XML inside. :) * Stop Nick Macki (Beta) (1993)(Pie in the Sky) [Action].zip - some versions, won't run if the system date is after July 15, 1993 * Suburban Commando (1993)(New Line Productions) [Action].zip - Clearly says 1991 on the title screen, but mobygames box and media scans show 1993. * Super Domination v4.1 [SWR] (1993)(Tom Wilson) [Strategy].zip - Registered via patching. Accepts any 7 digit code. * Syndicate (En)(It)(Fr) (1993)(Electronic Arts, Inc.)

Uses a different .exe to start, so maybe it is an earlier version that doesn't have it? Otherwise seems to play fine. * Tetris Gold (1993)(Spectrum Holobyte, Inc.) [Strategy, Action, Compilation].zip - requires some odd dosbox mounting- e.g. mount E: as a CD and D: as a HDD. Run tetdos.exe from E: and tell it to use D: for temp folder. For whatever reason C: will not work. * Todaleun Jisig-ui Seongjeon (Temple of Another Lore) (Kr) [a1] (1993)(Ahn Young-Ki) [Role-Playing (RPG)].zip - Labeled "bug fix" on the nemo838 site; some files differ from the non-[a1], but unsure what the fix exactly is, so I labeled this [a1]. * Treasures & Terror- The Dragon's Eggs [SW][b1] (1993)(J&E Software) [Role-Playing (RPG)].zip - Missing files, unplayable. Best known dump. * Troddlers [h1] (1993)(The Sales Curve Ltd.) [Action, Strategy].zip - TDT intro screen and graffiti on title screen. * Troddlers [h2] (1993)(The Sales Curve Ltd.)

[Strategy][!].zip - verified against original disk 26-jan-2014 * V for Victory- Market-Garden (Installer) [a1] (1993)(Three-Sixty Pacific, Inc.)

[Simulation, Sports].zip - I believe this is an updated release- it's bigger and the golf.exe is a different compile. * Yo! Joe! Beat the Ghosts (Fr)(De)(En) (1993)(Hudson Soft Company, Ltd.) [Action].zip - to switch languages, simply copy *.GER *.dat or *.fre *.dat * Yo! Joe! Beat the Ghosts (Installer) (Fr)(De)(En) [h1] (1993)(Hudson Soft Company, Ltd.)

Installer doesn't work in dosbox due to volume labels I believe. ==1994== * Airlines v1.11 [h1] (1994)(Interactivision A-S) [Simulation].zip - appears there may be a German version available in the game, since a language file exists for it, but I found no way to select language via configuration or in-game.

[Adventure, Interactive Fiction, Compilation].zip - This appears to be a home brewed version of Infocom Four-In-One Sampler which came out in 1984 (and is in TDC as a disk image). It uses Mark Howell's ZIP interpreter instead of the actual PC booter data. TDC is typically against using interpreters and non PC platform games to make "DOS" versions of games, but this is certainly an easier way to play the sampler disk until a true DC is created from it. * Inherit the Earth- Quest for the Orb (Installer) [h1] (1994)(New World Computing, Inc.)
