Looking for old versions of CKPATCH sources
Posted: Tue Apr 11, 2017 19:09
UPDATE 2 (Apr 17 2017): Guess what, while I suspect that v0.5.0 may be lost for good, original binary and source archives of v0.5.1 have been found! They're in the following (mostly complete) backup of Admiral Bob's files, done by Malvineous (mhead.zip hasn't been found so far): http://archive.shikadi.net/sites/member ... bob/files/
UPDATE (Apr 16 2017): Looks like Greg Yauney's release of v0.11.0 has been found (including sources)! Thanks to old IRC logs for this. Versions 0.5.0 and 0.5.1 remain missing, although I don't expect anything regarding these. Link to the 2010 release of v0.11.0: http://files.commanderkeen.org/users/mi ... 0.11.0.zip
Hey there,
I'm currently looking for a few old versions of CKPATCH for some weird reason (let's say it's sort-of an archive of CKPATCH versions). I'm referring here to binaries and sources altogether. (I suspect that I can locate old EXE files in a few old mods.)
Good chances are that none of these old versions is really around, but let's try anyway.
The versions I'm interested in are:
- Version 0.5.0 - First beta release - 2/12/2001 (probably not really around, since v0.5.1 was released just 4 days later)
- Version 0.5.1 - Second beta release - 6/12/2001
- Version 0.11.0 (without support for Bio Menace, other additional games or Keen 6 v1.5) - Fifth beta release, by Greg Yauney - 21/12/2010
Note that the above v0.11.0 release shall *not* be confused with this custom build adding Keen 6 v1.5 support, by Andrew Anderson (14/04/2009): https://pckf.rigeltechnical.com/viewtopic.php?t=597
It shall also *not* be confused with this release which adds support for more games (like Bio Menace): https://keenmodding.org/viewtopic.php?p=16843#p16843
For reference, I do have these versions, including sources:
- Version 0.9.0 - Third beta release - 26/6/2003 (currently found in http://files.keenmodding.org/)
- ckpatch-0.9.0-ext - Adding support for a few more games (like Bio Menace) - 25/06/2007 (https://keenmodding.org/viewtopic.php?t=975)
- Version 0.10.0 Fourth beta release, by Andrew Durdin - 23/11/2007 (currently found in http://files.keenmodding.org/)
- Version 0.11.0 Fifth beta release, by Andrew Anderson - 21/12/2010 (not to be confused with Greg Yauney's release; https://pckf.rigeltechnical.com/viewtopic.php?t=597)
- ckpatch-0.9.0-ext2 - Minor improvements to Bio Menace support - 11/03/2011 (https://keenmodding.org/viewtopic.php?p=16741#p16741)
- Modification of version 0.11.0 with the changes from ckpatch-0.9.0-ext2 -15/04/2011 (https://keenmodding.org/viewtopic.php?p=16843#p16843)
More unofficial extensions (the version numbers are my choices here):
- Version 0.11.1 - Sixth beta release - 24/10/2013 (https://keenmodding.org/viewtopic.php?p=18970#p18970)
- Version 0.11.2 - Seventh beta release - 09/04/2016 (https://keenmodding.org/viewtopic.php?p=20128#p20128)
- Version 0.11.3 - Eighth beta release - 26/03/2017 (https://keenmodding.org/viewtopic.php?p=21358#p21358)
Here's a summary of my guessed graph of releases:
Thanks for anything that may (or may not) pop up,
