Realm of Arkania Trilogy Hero's Edition

Postby BR4ZIL » Tue Dec 22, 2015 4:34 am

Hey folks!

After looking at your catalogue, i see you guys dont have the "Hero's Edition" of Realms of Arkania, while said edition was only released in german, it offers "out of the box" dosbox setup to play all 3 games with the redbook audio (including the "rare" CD audio for the first game).

I have such edition and would like to upload it to you guys, how can i procced?

As a sidenote, i also have the brazilian version of "The Varginha Incident", complete with the comic book that accompanied the game (and serves as backstory to it), i am not sure if the CD Version you guys have on the side is the portuguese version (its also dubbed in portuguese), if not i can also try to provide that.

Hello! Sounds good, thanks for offering this release. :D
There's an explanation in Annoucements & Rules section under "How to contribute" - Uploading a game - viewtopic.php?f=7&t=11714&p=59995#p59995

Don't think it's hard by the lengthy and detailed explanation, it's actually quite easy. Basically I would use AlcoholClone http://www.alcohol-soft.com/ to make image of discs or CloneCD for older games. Then compress file with WinRar http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm to make file smaller and protect it from corruption. Then make a free account at mega.co.nz or another free file hosting service (though that is currently the best current option). Then you just upload the file there and copy the file link and post it here to share with others. Let us know if you have problems and we're glad to help.

I only have it in .ISO format.

But since the actual dvd is just literally 5 files (1 installer and 2 other .bin that contain all the 3 games + dosbox preconfigured emulation, manuals and "protection codes", and it includes their respective original CD images that are used for correct CD audio). I hope thats alright. All the redbook tracks are played from those images and the actual dvd has nothing beyond just being a nicely packed installer.

So yeah, keep in mind that these do have the original "copy protection" intact, but they include the manual & sheets required to bypass it just like you would back in the day.

It will take me an hour to upload that to mega, its over 2gb.

Thats brazilian internet for you... :P
