Broken image links

[AGA]

I don't see why not.

[Stupot]

Yeah I deleted one such comment a little while ago.  It was the only comment on the whole page and it was from 2006 :/

I'm tackling M now, I think that's still free.

[selmiak]

this is a request for moar powerz
So I shall tackle another letter and some more screenshots.

[cat]

I somehow lost track who is doing which letter. I'll start doing T if there are no objections.

Done.

Hm, I was able to update the download link, but when trying to upload a new screenshot I got first an error that I can't use bmp and then when uploading a png a "Editing game failed."

I remember someone said they were doing T and following, probably through an excel file. You should probably pick another.

As for the "Editing game failed", that's because there is no author in the bottommost field or the weight is 0. Change these and it should work.

Okay. I'm just going back through the ABCs using my new powers of editing, and then I'll make a start on MNO.
One game 'Bad Luck' doesn't let me update it and I can't work out why? Any ideas?

I'm tackling M now, I think that's still free.

Check with Stupot, or maybe start from O updwards, Narushima.

I'm working from T downwards...
I know I can continue with gathering info but it has to be administered in the db at some point. Besides, I have all the images on my harddisk so I choose to upload them from there... That's quicker than loading images from a website...

Hey Cat, if you like you can help me do I,J,K. Just start from K upwards?

Have some trouble with an Indy game, gonna take a while anyway...

[Stupot]

@Narushima - It's okay. You can carry on with M.  But I've got N and O covered.

OK, it'll take me a while anyway.

Speaking of AGSA, could you please make it so that the "A game by <name>" text links to a list of all games by that author?

Also, how can I update my games' entries on AGSA?

This will come with the next build of AGSA .
Then you will also be able to make an account, claim your games and start editing/adding.

I can't give a date for when I think it will be done, but I hope to get it done fairly soon!

[selmiak]

okay, I was going to start out from the very bottom and it starts bad. The 2 Zelda dance remix games are unavailable (and were rated 1cup), then the wretcher demo has a screenshot already and is still in the list... then all other W games are not available anymore
same for the one game with U left...

if the download link for a game is broken, is it best to just delete the link and the page will display the download unavailable message? Even though the red asterix makes me think it's not possible to update the game data without a link...

[Tramponline]

I ignored the games that were unavailable in the 'L' section as well. Not such a bad thing, since in the end we should end up with a list
of games that can't be found around the Net.
From there people could search for ancient game skeletons in their 'harddrive closet'.

Hm, I was able to update the download link, but when trying to upload a new screenshot I got first an error that I can't use bmp and then when uploading a png a "Editing game failed."

Yeah, it didn't allow you to upload bmps until recently, but I thought it would be better to just accept them, then convert them to jpg like all the rest  Looks like the error message is left from then.

Yeah, I'm at the S now... I'll dig a bit deeper into the remaining games to see what I can find in my own archive. The question is what to do with the ones we can't find/don't exist anymore?

Hm, I was able to update the download link, but when trying to upload a new screenshot I got first an error that I can't use bmp and then when uploading a png a "Editing game failed."

And when you fill in the author at the field at the bottom like "name: author" you should be able to save the changes.

Done with K

I couldn't do the following because of broken download links:

Kill Davy Jones (demo) by FSi - I contacted FSi but he currently doesn't have a copy. Thanks Peder!
King Of Rock - was on bicycles but is not in Peders archive
Kiselyova Unleashed!
Klaus Kerner and the Fate of Atlantis

[Peder 🚀]

King Of Rock - was on bicycles but is not in Peders archive -> http://new.agsarchives.com/download/g/c!gJmuv

[Narushima]

I'm done with the Ms.

• I couldn't find these:
• Matt and James Amazing Game For Everyone (candidate for deletion?)
• Meaning Quest DEMO (candidate for deletion?)
• Mimis the rat
• My 40 bullets (v1.1)

As for "Mittens Mystery Extravaganza", the main link is dead, the mirror links to a suspicious download of 7Zip (I didn't try it).
