Sure, I'll post it here, since it hasn't been put up in a while and is
useful for lots of people. There haven't been any new entries in a long
time because I'm not getting any new submissions. Sometimes it seems
like everybody wants to benefit from the information in the list but no
one wants to contribute to it. sigh...

If anyone finds any new entries not on the list PLEASE send them in.

List follows

		A3000/AmigaOS 2.04 Program Compatibility List

			  Version 3.3 of 06/19/92

			Program Count: 376

===============================================================================

        OVERVIEW:
 
	Please send any additions, alterations or updates to me at my
	e-mail address,

                   Kent.Dalton@FtCollinsCO.NCR.com

           If possible, mail submissions in the same format as those in
        this list. That way I can just cut and paste them into the
        main list.
 
	   I will try to make an updated list available for FTP on a
	monthly basis.

           Thanks to all contributors to the list!
        

        FORMAT KEY:


  Program Name:
  -------------

     Alphabeticlical even for numbers please.  Should give enough information
        to distinguish between versions, or between games that have very
        similar names.

  Type:
  -----

     This should be from the following list of program types:

	Prefix with 'PD' if the program is public domain, shareware, etc.
		otherwise programs are assumed to be commercial!

	data	for supplimental data disks to commercial programs or games.
	demo	for demos of commercial programs or animations, (no need for
		 PD).
	draw	for paint, animation and design programs.
	game	for commercial games.
        graph   for rendering and raytracing.
	misc	for programs not fitting in other categories.
	mulmed	for multi-media products.
	spread	for spreadsheets, databases, etc.
	word	for word processors or other text programs.

  Machines:
  ---------

     FOOTNOTES: Footnotes are listed in any of the following sections.  Their
		format is:

	    /#  # is the number of the footnote.  Footnotes
		are listed at the END of the list.

     A3000
     -----
	.    UNTESTED
 
	Y    RUNS on the machine under at least system 1.3.2, no modification
		necessary
 
	Y:%  RUNS on the machine, but only under the certain conditions.
		Patches and other third party assistances should be footnoted.

	     % can include:
		2   functions only under system 2.0.
		*   functions, but there are mild GRAPHIC glitches on A3000.
		**  functions, but there are SEVERE GRAPHIC glitches on A3000.
		P   PATCH required, see footnotes for what program to use, or
			how to do it yourself.
		C   CPU CACHES must be turned off for program to function.   
		F   Fast memory must be disabled  for program to run,
			(ie. NoFastMem).
		f   Recommended that fast memory be disabled.  This slows the
			game down and makes it more playable.  Not applied to 
			games that run better fast, and means game will still
			run WITH fast memory.
		B   Preceeding F, C, or f.  Caches or fast memory must be
			disabled during the boot procedure.  This is usually
			for games that boot from the bootblock and won't run
			from workbench/CLI.  See Recommended Utilities 
			(below) for programs to do this.
		>   runs on the 3000, but game SPEED is accellerated and game
			is difficult or impossible to play, (try Bf)
		S   looses sound sporadically or has poor sound on A3000.
		K   Works under kickstart 1.2 -- SEE FOOTNOTE (49)!

	N:%  DOES NOT RUN on the A3000 under any known conditions.
		(no patches, CPU settings, etc.)

	     % matches either:
		E   fails due to a CPU exception, (any kind).
		O   fails due to some other program error, and the program
			either freezes or does not perform correctly.

  Systems:
  --------

     2.x
     ---
	.    UNTESTED

	Y:%  RUNS under listed release of Kickstart 2.x on the A3000.

	     % can include:
		ANY of the options to the 1.3 Y:% (except '2').
		01  Tested under Kickstart version prior to 36.207 
		02  Tested under Kickstart version 36.207
		03  Tested under Kickstart version 36.209
		04  Tested under Kickstart version 37.175
		S   Sound sometimes disappears, but probably only tested
			under 2.% and A3000.

		NOTE: The version of 2.x listed is the latest version the
			program was tested under.

	TN:% TEMPORARY NEGATIVE. Does not run under listed release of 2.x
		on the A3000, but is UNTESTED on A500 or A2000.

	X:%  RUNS under listed release of Kickstart 2.x on the A500 or A2000,
		but DOES NOT RUN under listed release of 2.x on the A3000.

	N:%  DOES NOT RUN under listed release of 2.x on ANY machine.

     HD
     --
	.    UNTESTED

	Y    RUNS off a hard drive, but protection unspecified.

	Y:%  RUNS off a hard drive, qualifier specifies key disk, manual, etc.
		or whether there is a patch do make it work, (should be
		footnoted).

	     % can include:
		+   Runs pure, no protection.
		A   "assigns" must be made for HD copy to work, usually 
			game disk assigned to HD drawer.
		K   key disk required.
		M   uses a "page 21, line 7, word 5" copy from manual method,
			or similar.
		P   patch required, see footnote for what program to use, or
			how to do it yourself.

	N:%  DOES NOT INSTALL on a hard drive by ANY known means.

	     % matches either:
		B   Disk must be booted as disk has  custom bootblock.
		D   Protection on disk makes it impossible to install on HD.

  System Friendliness:
  --------------------

     SF
     --
	.    UNTESTED
	
	M%   MULTITASKS with other programs.  These programs will allow other
		programs to run AT THE SAME TIME.  Programs that must pause to 
		allow multitasking are in the 'F' category.

	F%   FORBIDS multitasking.  These programs will temporarily halt other
		programs from running, but will return control to the system
		either during a pause or after the program exits.

	T%   TAKESOVER the system and either does not return control to the 
		system, or crashes the system upon an exit.  This is classic
		of many games.

 	     % matches:
		+    Program can be started either from Workbench 1.3/2.0 or
			from CLI.
		-    Program must be booted, either because it loads from a
			custom bootblock or it requires an old version of 
			the Workbench (ie. 1.2) to run.
		1    Program is more than one disk, but will only use ONE
			drive, (requires switching disks needlessly).
		2    Program will use additional disk drives if available.

	A scale of system friendliness:

		M+  	M-	F+	F-	T+	T-

	Friendly  <----				---->	Unfriendly

  Game Ratings:
  -------------

	   This rating system is based on votes submitted in an Internet
	VIDEO GAMES RATINGS REPORT, and applies only to games.  The poll is
	organized and run by Chuck Musciano, John Leo, and Eric Ng.  They 
	deserve applause for their efforts in providing this rating system.
	Thank you also to all those who submitted to the report. 
	   Information on the report can be found through regular postings in 
	comp.sys.amiga.games and the organizers can be contacted through
	video-request@irss.njit.edu.   (cont...)

	Rating date of this list: Aug. '91.

	.	UNRATED as of last poll.

	x.x:#	RATED

	     x.x   Average of votes for the game based on the following scale:

			8-10.0 Worth buying at full price.
			6-7.0  Worth buying at a discount, or if you're
				  particularly interested in this kind of game.
			3-5.0  Only worth renting.
			2.0    Only worth playing for free, and only for a few 
				  minutes.
			1.0    Worthless.

	     #     Total number of votes for the game.


  Recommended Utilities
  ---------------------

	   The following list of utilities should be in every A3000 software 
	collection.  If you don't already have these utilities, they should 
	be available on local BBSs, Bix, Genie, popular Internet FTP sites,
	etc.

		'newzap'	   This utility can be used to edit DOS files
				byte by byte.  Patches explained in the 
				footnotes of this list can be applied with 
				this program using the ASCII search feature,
				and by typing new data/values manually.

		'bootcache'	   This program will disable CPU CACHES upon
				reboot of the system.  This will help many 
				programs work correctly on the A3000.

		'disable'	   I wrote this program to expand on
				'bootcache.'  It will turn off CPU CACHES 
				and/or FAST MEMORY in the A3000 during a 
				reboot.  This program will work under both
				1.3 and 2.x.  I will make an effort to upload
				this program to Genie, Bix, and several FTP
				sites, (ie. ab20.larc.nasa.gov).
				*** Get bug fix v1.0a to work under SYS1.3.


		'setcpu'	   Will disable/enable CPU CACHES immediately,
				but will not survive a reboot. ('cpu' available
				with 2.x).  Try to get version 1.6, as you can
				boot kickstart 1.2 with it, (necessary for some
				games).

		'nofastmem'	   Will disable FAST MEMORY immediately, but
				will not survive a reboot.

    Footnotes
    ---------

	(1)  Do NOT use Sierra's install on the A3000 as the program very 
		well may corrupt your hard drive.  The game can be installed
		by copying all files from each disk into one directory and
		running, no assigns are necessary.
	(2)  Patch ('DMpatch') should be available on BBSs or some FTP sites,
		but only works for some versions of the game.
	(3)  Patch can be done with NewZap, just replace all occurances of
		"df0:" with something you can assign, (like "f18").
	(4)  Patch available on many BBS's and networks will remove code-wheel
		protection.
	(5)  Although it appears to work with only some graphics glitches, it
		will crash on some crucial screens.
	(6)  Patch available on BIX (fixpop.arc).
	(7)  Glitches so bad, it's almost unplayable.
	(8)  Will run on 3000 under 2.0 but not 1.3 (past the cockpit scene).  
		However, pressing ESC to get menus crashes the system.
	(9)  Keyboard is touchy in 2.0.
	(10) Hangs under 2.0 during a fill of a patterned area.  Fixed in
		version 3.25.		
	(11) Dynamic Hi-Res pictures are scrambled, but patch is shipping from
		Newtek to fix problem.
	(12) Crashes arbitrarily...
	(13) Need "patchsonix" available on most networks (bix, etc.)
	(14) Graphic glitches on title screen, but runs fine.
	(15) Graphic glitches if run from workbench other than its own.
		For HD install, similar to (38).
	(16) Can't multitask if workbench is interlace.
	(17) Copying with Project D should make this possible.
	(18) Can be deprotected with Marauder II.
	(19) Patch called 'FastMax3' will enable you to place the ROMs on your
		HD.
	(20) For Firepower to work on 2.02, you must cancel the startup-
		sequence and start the program manually through CLI.
	(21) Appears to work under 1.3 & 2.0, but scrambles after tanks land.
		See also footnote 49.
	(22) Disk 2 only can be installed on HD.
	(23) Run NoFastMem before running game to slow it down.
	(24) Screen opens too large under 2.02.
	(25) I haven't been able to get the installed game to work on the
		A3000.
	(26) Practically unusable under 2.0, some jerky mouse movements result.
	(27) Problems under 1.3.2 and 2.0: selecting MIDI twice will GURU
		machine and frequently crashes on exit.  Works fine under 1.3
		(changes to serial.device cause the problem).
	(28) Runs a little slower on A3000!
	(29) The speed increase on the A3000 actually makes the game more
		playable.
	(30) Crashes predictably under 2.0 after a few levels.
	(31) Text strange under 2.0.
	(32) Requires dongle.
	(33) Similar to (38), just edit file "duel" and pick new name to
		replace tdboot:.
	(34) May need to "protect sierra +r"!
	(35) Buggy on A3000 - crashes at random; but functions most of the
		time.
	(36) Newer versions work, versions before July '91 won't.
	(37) Copy all files to HD.  Change references of DC1: to DC2: in file 
		"Dark Castle".  Then assign DC2: to HD drawer.
	(38) Copy all files to HD, (except "      " file!).  Use newzap on file
		"Defender" to change all references of Defender1: and
		Defender2: to Defender3:. ONLY EDIT REFERENCES THAT HAVE A
		FILENAME ATTACHED TO THEM!  Assign Defender3: to HD drawer.
		Run with both originals in drives, (or switch as requested).
	(39) Similar to (38), just edit file "FirePower" and pick a new name to
		replace FirePower:.
	(40) Crashes on exit on 2.0.
	(41) Will install with keydisk protection, but requires workbench 1.2!
	(42) Mouse pointer a little misguided.
	(43) Eject disk to quit.
	(44) Can't 'cd' to ms0: under 2.x.
	(45) Works only if linked to Dragon's Lair:Escape from Singe's Castle.
	(46) Can't see disk prompt under 2.x, just wait for drive to stop and
		insert disk 2.
	(47) Has many IO errors during play under 2.x.
	(48) No joystick control on A3000, keyboard only.
	(49) To boot kickstart 1.2 you will need a Kickstart 1.2 disk and
		version 1.6 of setcpu (a PD utility).  Type the following
		at the CLI prompt: 'setcpu config 0 kickrom df0: keepexec'
		Then, when the machine reboots, put in kickstart disk.  Old
		releases of setcpu had a utility called kickfile which will
		allow you to put the kickstart in file form to speed things
		up!
