Hi there,

I've quite some games stuff that might interest you.
As a newbie I am not yet moving at ease, here. Having a considerable collection I would be happy to share mainly box cove images and manuals (not to mention the very games). As for the screenshots, my problem is how to get them when it comes to pure DOS games...
I found not the game in title at Abandonia's list, as well as Louis Cat Orze, Chewy, Deja Vu II, Spacewrecked, etc...
Please let me know how to start doing this - if you see it might be relevant for Abandonia.
Thanks
Joao/Dragom

You can read here how to capture Screenshots with DosBox.

and make a List of Games, Extra, etc of which you want to submit, so TotalAnarchy can check them and eventually approve them and give you FTP-Access where you can upload to.

Just to be clear. You post the titles you're offering in this thread. And I'll check them after that.

Well... I'm not sure if I'm getting it all:
This thread has already a name of a game. I have the game, I can provide the pdf manual and the box cover images.
As for the game itself, it is a CD: would you like to get an image (I usually pick Alcohol120).

Now: do you mean that I should/may use this thread for other games & stuff?

Thanks in advance

So, it is not a thred for each game...

Now, about screenshots:
a) I am not using DosBox - I usually have a computer for each system, or so... and the screen "thieves" I used do not work...or... I am not able to...
The amazing thing for some games is to be able to get screenshots with the Printscreen key when they run with Win98 or even XP!!!
b)actually there are disagreements about the "genuine" size of screenshots using DosBox and the PrintScreen key with Win98 in some games - this last one method get bigger/better images!

Any other idea to skip DosBox would be much appreciated.
Thanks anyway!
Joao

We have Touche already here, but we can use Manual and Boxshots. The CD can be put in ISO CELLAR.

In this thread you'll be offering all the games you want to, not just one. The requests section is for requesting games you don't have. SInce you have screens of those game you created threads for in that section, I'm assuming you have the games too. Thus you are actually offering the games. Please post your list of offers in this thread.

PS: Though it's not completely wrong if you created a separate thread for each one in the Request section. This is how it was done in the past, when there wasn't an Offers subforum.

Default An American Tail

Ok, let's try:
I have ready to upload the box cover images for An American Tail which I am attaching to this note.


PS
I am sorry - my search show nothing when if I use "Fifth Musketeer" instead of "5th..."
And I just looked at the Manual (multilingual!) - only the English section is finished on pdf - do you want it like that or do you prefer to wait for the complete stuff - which will take a few days at least...

You can post your Stuff over the FTP but not here. Just post a List of what you want to submit, like TA said. Please take a look in the Other Threads her to see how its done.

I will add your stuff you posted here on FTP.
