To my dismay, I discovered that my Comanche 4 CD has a scratch upon it. Yes, I know I should have backed it up earlier, but in the midst of getting a new PC up and running when the old one blew up, and having to make sure it worked properly for serious applications taking priority over games as I use it as a development system, backing up C4 fell by the wayside.
Now, I can copy ALL of the files except the 4 big PFF files.
Is there anywhere online I can download these from and resurrect them?
Or do I have to go cap in hand to NovaLogic and buy a completely new C4 CD?
Personally I'd prefer not to buy a new CD all over again, because finding the one I bought was a pain in the proverbial to start with, because where I live the shops are hardly comprehensive in their game selections, mostly cater for consoles instead of PCs anyway, and thus I had to take a 50 mile round train trip to find somewhere that stocked it.
I'd prefer not to resort to EBay if I can help it, not least because of the spam phishing EMails I receive in my mailbox whilst never having had an EBay account ... I reckon they'd multiply by a factor of 10 once I actually opened an account, and I've better things to do with my time than sort out which EBay EMails are fake and which aren't.
So, any repositories out there? I don't mind waiting however long it takes to download the files if they are online, patience is one thing you learn when you're writing software ( ) and once I have the files I can create an ISO disc image and burn as many copies as I want, using the files that WERE intact form the original CD. It's only the 4 big PFF files that are dud (would be those that were trashed - typical).
