Done! I put a comment on the last one I uploaded to note that the new running screens should replace the existing ones, but I didn't tick the option as I didn't know what would happen when uploading multiple files with that option ticked.

Just to note -- the file 0007170-run-1.scr should be removed from the Scott Adams Scoops entry as this is for the original version of Voodoo Castle, not the version in this compilation (which is present as 0007170-run-2.scr).

The SC site automatically shows all screenshots of each game inside the compilation page. There's nothing to be fixed in ZXDB.

Fire Copy fixed :D


(This was explained at the start of the thread, but I'll repeat it so that it doesn't get lost as time passes:

To fix these screenshots I simply rename them by adding an underscore to the start of the filename (ex: /conv_scr/M/_mygame.scr )
This way we mark them as high priority for an eventual future replacement.
In case we want to get rid of the entire gif replacement process, we can simply rename the conv_scr folder to something else. That way we keep the work done on marking priority images ;) )

Killed Until Dead fixed.

On Cosmic Chaos problem is with the GIF loading screen that's badly formatted (unrelated to the in-game screens).
Open it on Chrome and the problem becomes visible: https://spectrumcomputing.co.uk/pub/sin ... cChaos.gif
I took a proper .scr screenshot and uploaded it using the preservation tools ;)
