geelsu - Legions
Would you be interested in a game called Legions? I have been able to run it successfully until Windows 7. I'll be installing the Windows XP Emulator soon so I can continue to play it from time to time. Attached is the Credits.jpg file and a zip of the Help File from the game. The total size of the directory where I have it is 16.5 MB

I created new topic for your offer. The game is approved, there is installer already uploaded, but we will accept your archive that is ready to play (on XP at least). PM coming...
Can you make several screenshots and one title screenshot? Do you have anything else beside archive? Perhaps you have it on CD, have a manual or something... |

I do have the manual. I can scan it in for you if you like. Getting the screenshots will be a challenge. Unfortunately the XP emulator will not run on my Windows 7 Home edition. I am going to check around with a few friends and see if I can find an XP DVD. I hear it can also run in VMware Player.
How do I upload a game? |

Ok. Uploaded. Give a day or two scan in the manual and I will then upload that.

Well, manual is a big one. We will keep it if no better solution is found. However, I think creating pdf from pictures would be better solution. You can probably google something that will allow you something like this.
Thx for contributions and review |

How about 11 megs. Went to landscape and then put two manual pages per Word page and reduced each image size to 66%. Word then had a Save As pdf option.

I did a short write-up, but this is better:

We can't use someone's video review. You can create video of gameplay, intros (if there are any), perhaps a video review and that will go to Abandonia channel on YouTube. It has to be by our members.
As for Legions, pleeeeease zip or rar the game and then re-upload it. I can't download file-by-file in order to zip it again. Also, do NOT include save games or anything else that is personal. We tend to provide the game as-is, like you would get it when you bought it. If for some reason you think something personal should be provided (like a savegame for some reason), please explain why it should be provided and it may be placed in Extras, but not in the game archive itself. As for the current Legions.zip file on FTP with .HLP file, should the Help file be separated from the game archive? We can add it as extra but if it was among the game files then perhaps include it in the zip as well. Lastly, about the manual scan. We can use the current one (the bigger one), but why adding pictures into Word in a first place? Why not creating pdf straight from jpgs? I tried two online converters (this and this) and it worked fine more or less. You can probably find some free tool to download with more options if you want that. Ideally pictures would have same resolution so no margin is needed. So, if you choose to re-create the manual, try to do it with as less margin (white space at edges) as possible, so pdf pages may looks as much as the manual pages. And it can go page by page, you don't need to connect two pages. As for the manual size, 50 MBs may be a bigger manual, but somehow those pictures in 11MB manual seemed a bit small. So don't save the space, we want pictures to be as big as the manual page. Perhaps you can reduce size by reducing quality or dpi of jpg, but only if it doesn't really change the final outcome much. We prefer quality than saving space. I created pdf form the old manual unless you come with better solution. Sorry for long post. The most important was to get the game and material, these are details that would be nice if you can handle them Thx |
