Hi [mention]+3code[/mention]. Let us have a look at that. It's a good suggestion.

After much head scratching I have made this change:

https://spectrumcomputing.co.uk/entry/4 ... rofanation

The downloads now appear for all but the Gremlin version. Enjoy!

I need a lie down now...

I found this thread wondering why are the original Dinamic files of Abu Simbel Profanation not available for download anymore.

They should be since only the Gremlin-branded releases are owned by Urbanscan.

Other games re-released by Gremlin (in compilations for instance) are in fact available.

Edit: same goes for Rocky and West Bank. All Dinamic games that should be made available in their original releases.

Hi [mention]Alessandro[/mention],

As far as I recall we do blocking by game ID or label ID. Blocking by release ID is probably possible, but not something I've ever looked at.

Note, I'm not in front of the server currently, so the above is from memory.

[mention]Einar Saukas[/mention] & [mention]pavero[/mention] I know we discussed making this code simpler, but can't recall the outcome.
