01:29 🔗 vitzli has joined #archiveteam-bs
02:15 🔗 nicolas17 vitzli: I meant wrt the off-topic part, would it be on-topic on #internetarchive?
02:15 🔗 xmc yes
02:17 🔗 nicolas17 hrm it seems IA has a nice collection of old DOS games from Knowledge Adventure
02:17 🔗 nicolas17 except the two I used to have and lost the CDs for D:
02:18 🔗 nicolas17 but damn https://archive.org/details/KADEMO brought back memories
02:19 🔗 vantec yhy
02:19 🔗 vantec wrong window, lol
02:20 🔗 nicolas17 I do have some CD-ROMs from EA*Kids DOS games, I should see if IA has them
02:20 🔗 nicolas17 and otherwise... uh, dig up a CD drive
02:23 🔗 nicolas17 foudn one of them, it says "stream only", what does that mean?
02:29 🔗 vitzli probably it could be only played, but not downloaded
02:30 🔗 nicolas17 what are the limits for the in-browser emulator?
02:31 🔗 vitzli no idea, maybe recent version of the browser and fast hardware
02:31 🔗 nicolas17 I mean like, can it only play floppies?
02:32 🔗 vitzli I don't know
02:33 🔗 vitzli no experience with emulator at all
02:39 🔗 nicolas17 now I'm thoroughly confused
02:40 🔗 nicolas17 the emulator downloaded 4MB for this game, and some googling shows other websites with a 4MB download for it
02:40 🔗 nicolas17 but I have this on CD... o.O
02:41 🔗 vitzli sound tracks?
02:41 🔗 nicolas17 perhaps
02:41 🔗 nicolas17 one of the CDs I lost was 3D Dinosaur Adventure, by Knowledge Adventure
02:41 🔗 nicolas17 I once found the floppy disk version online
02:41 🔗 nicolas17 and indeed it has a *lot* less content
02:43 🔗 nicolas17 anyway, in that case IA doesn't have the CD version so there's something to contribute :)
02:47 🔗 vitzli has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving)
03:03 🔗 dashcloud the in-browser emulator is rather good, but it's not as quick as the native one, but it loads quickly and you don't need to do any setup
03:04 🔗 dashcloud also, if you've got some CD images, you can certainly try to make them playable on IA
03:07 🔗 nicolas17 I think one problem is that most CDs needed "installing to the hard disk"
03:08 🔗 nicolas17 actually... floppies too... so are there separate "raw dump of the floppy" and "installed playable game" things in IA?
03:08 🔗 dashcloud yes
03:09 🔗 dashcloud before the emulators were available, all you got was raw dump & cd images
03:11 🔗 dashcloud multiple collections of this- the shareware collection, cover cds, floppy collections, and lots of specialized collections
03:11 🔗 dashcloud here's an overview of the software: https://archive.org/details/software
03:12 🔗 nicolas17 for these DOS games I have CDs and printed manuals (!) in very good condition :)
03:14 🔗 dashcloud anything you can add to the archive would be greatly appreciated
03:16 🔗 nicolas17 Scooter's Magic Castle, Eagle Eye Mysteries, some Peter Pan interactive storybook... hmm

17:05 🔗 tpw_rules okay i wasn't sure if you meant like they were redundant
17:05 🔗 xmc https://ia801500.us.archive.org/17/items/theslowwinter/theslowwinter_meta.xml
17:05 🔗 xmc https://ia801507.us.archive.org/4/items/the_ageless_gergel/the_ageless_gergel_meta.xml

17:06 🔗 xmc i am and i see 1
17:06 🔗 Medowar yeah, IA is in one location. More likely caching.

23:40 🔗 nicolas17 "3D Dinosaur Adventure" and "Speed"
23:40 🔗 nicolas17 I seriously thought I had lost them for good
23:40 🔗 nicolas17 I think the dinosaur one is scratched beyond readability but there should be a way to recover it
23:41 🔗 nicolas17 scratches are on the underside

23:48 🔗 vantec Some local rental places around you may have a disc resurfacing machine for fairly cheap. Else there are some professional services you can ship the disc off to. Lastly you can try using brassco as a very cheap method.
23:49 🔗 nicolas17 there is a local company that I already used for great success to recover data from a dead hard disk
23:49 🔗 nicolas17 it seems they do CDs too
23:50 🔗 nicolas17 (they actually opened the hard disk in a clean room and replaced a damaged head, recovered 100%)
