FREESCAPE: Amstrad CPC version of Dark Side unknown variant

Reported by: Fistynuts Owned by: neuromancer
Priority: normal Component: Engine: Freescape
Version: Keywords:
Cc: Game: Dark Side

Description

My Amstrad CPC version of Dark Side (English, DSK version) does not match the files described on the wiki so is not being detected. It works correctly in a CPC emulator.

Files listed on the wiki:

  • dark1.scr
  • dark2.scr
  • darkcode.bin

My files:

  • darkside.bi1 (8514 bytes)
  • darkside.bi2 (4292 bytes)
  • darkside.bi3 (30768 bytes)

If I rename the files to match the names in the wiki, assuming the smaller files are the .scrs and darkside.bi3 should map to darkcode.bin, I receive the error: 

The game in 'Dark Side (Amstrad)\' seems to be an unknown game variant.
Matched game IDs for the freescape engine: darkside-cpc

  {"DARKCODE.BIN", 0, "2421b1c2fd052c7837a35695313d31e6", 30768},
