It takes a lot for me to say wow these days but wow.
Thank you Retro Recipes for taking us on this journey into a place I never thought I'd see.
Cris. Thank you for your contribution to computing history and for making this video possible. I am a huge fan of worms to this day and I still fondly recall playing the game back when it was initially realised. Glorious glorious worms.
Wow.
You are more than welcome. I was very lucky to be the c̶h̶o̶s̶e̶n̶ ̶w̶o̶r̶m̶ chosen one, & I loved the idea of sharing the exploration adventure with this lovely community. Thank you again Cris! 🐛
@@RetroRecipes came here to say the same thing. thank you so much for making this video. sad to see you're gone off twitter, but after the social media talking heads started trolling you I'm not surprised!
So much history in one small little box! It's amazing that within just a few hours this Amiga was back working just like it was in the 90's. It would be wrong for this to land in any one individuals hands, it has to given to a computing museum back at its home in the UK.
Thanks Cris and Perifractic, I'm looking forward to see more from this series!
Thanks! More is already live, check out the worms playlist 👍🕹️
@@RetroRecipes that playlist looks great!!!
That a4000 deserves its place in a museum and I would suggest the Centre of Computing History in Cambridge UK as it really is one of a kind.
I totally agree! It would "complete" the computers travels around the world too. From UK to US and back to its homevcountry.
I was going to suggest that one. I saw Douglas Adams' Mac in there. It would be good for it to be in a British museum, with Team 17 and their Amiga games being a big deal here.
Given that Team17 was a British company, that's the proper place in my opinion.
Totally agree! 🤗👍🏻
BertyFromDK Hmmmm... I like to think 50% Swedish and 50% English. Just because I am a Swede and remember Team 7’s games very well.
Thanks for watching! Please vote via the ℹ️ icon in the video corner & remember any proceeds will go to charity. Details to follow! Worm regards, Perifractic
If it goes to a retro museum, I would suggest reaching out to John Hancock th-cam.com/channels/kDwUy-wt1adtSyd227TNdA.html
I'm using Magic Actions for TH-cam, and wasn't able to configure it to show the "i" icon. Disabled the addon to vote - then I emailed their support asking them to allow users to decide if they want the Cards-feature.
Thanks for being my best friend in retro, Perifractic!
Wish I'd had an Amiga BITD and had been more popular here. My first experience with the series was with Worms Armageddon on the N64. Still love it though.
when it comes to PAL\NTSC monitors... tried with an Sony PWM or JVC TM?
the JVC TM-1700PN is a very popular monitor with the retro gaming community here in Europe since it has both modes combined with superb picture and way lower price used than the Sony PWM.'s with both NTSC and PAL support
Where is the link to the vote? I don't see it in the description (and there's no 'i' in the video).
Wow. Amiga, Lightwave and worms in the same video. It's my childhood all over again!
Don't forget Ashley, as well :D
TH-cam: How many Worm puns can you shove into an RR episode?
Perifractic: Yes.
Ive still got an Amiga 4000 with the Video toaster and flyer running. rendering lightwave objects into an animation is painfully slow but the end results are fantastic even today.
Thanks to The RetroHour Podcast, I discovered Chris Blyth's story and wow!! This was fantastic to find your video as I somehow missed it before. This definately shows why we need to keep and maintain backups of old computers especially those with a fantastic history. Thanks for saving these and giving us all the videos documenting the discoveries.
For some reason, sitting watching an Englishman and a Scotsman firing up a A4000 in America, to relive some amazing games history is just so enjoyable. Team17, Worms, Bars & Pipes, Lightwave3d.... Fantastic visit to memory lane for me. My best regards from Scotland, birth place to so many game designers and companies.
Cheers! Sounds like the beginning of a joke doesn't it...
@@RetroRecipes So, an Englishman, a Scotsman and an A4000 walk into a Bar & Pipes....... :D
Thanks for the reply Chris, you and the family stay safe. It's not quite time for me to say in my broad Scot's, "Were aww doomed" :D
Now, if you'll excuse me, I shall go binge watch your channel :)
@@cryptomime1429 Haha good one!!
I'd say the collection belongs in a museum. There's enough there to display around the Amiga and give context. They could even hook up a monitor to a different machine to show a video loop of the animated files, 3D scenes etc.
I'd definitely not clean it
Bring this set to the computer history museum !
Such a fun video to randomly stumble upon, I remember watching and laughing at all those small animation clips from the original Worms and later Worms 2. Probably was around 8 or 9 years old back then. Worms 1 we played with a friend living nearby back then but Worms 2 was the first game I tried online multiplayer on and it was so interesting idea to be able to compete with other people from other countries, stuff that people would take for granted nowadays, back then it was so weird and new for a young boy living in the country side with a slow modem connection. Thanks for the video and a trip down the wormy memory lane. :)
I rarely (ever) comment on videos on TH-cam. I have reasons (misleading, agenda, quality, rambling)... but I wanted to thank you for this and your channel in general. Not only did it tweak my emotional retro love for my old Amiga and my memories of first having Worms :) but the entire video, from your dog, to your presentation, the comedy, Ashley, Chris... seeing those original files, seeing both of your eyes light up after many hours of trying... beautiful! Stunning! Thank you!
Thank you for your extremely kind words. Means a lot. 👍🕹
i loved playing this on my amiga 1200 as a kid in the nineties... even the pc ports later on.
Very interesting! I still have the CU Amiga magazine, December 1995 which has Worms demo in the cover disk with special CU Amiga -level.
Looking forward to see more of this video series.
This machine deserves to go on a world tour to the next demo partys! Please reach out to NOVA, Assembly, The Gathering and Evoke . will just dust away in a retro museum. Let the best crews code thier compos on this veteran machine, and after that it can retire in an museum. (and of course some kinky pics with this amiga and debby bestwick, please)
This is just amazing! Thanks!!! Amazing how Far the Lightwave Software was ahead of it's time..Amiga is Love :)
The FMVs were still quite impressive on the PC CDROM, in fact. Though I didn't really miss them when booting the game up on my eBay A600...
I started my sound design career 27 years ago on Amiga 500. Today i'm best selling sound designer and my products sell from Hollywood to Bollywood, from North Ireland to South Africa. Thank you Amiga!!
It's good to see a historic workhorse brought out and run through it's courses again.
Although this video has been a great load of fun it does raise one of the more serious problems with " Retro " computing . Namely the finding , collecting & preservation of the actual code / designs & thought processes of the people who made the software from the days before Internet / blogs.
Many thanks to you both & i really look forward to the rest of the series.
What an acquisition!! I really enjoyed watching that. Such an trip down memory lane and I only played the game.
Keep up the great content mate. 👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Brilliant, utterly brilliant. So cool to see old devs glow infront of their old platforms 😍
Team 17 has been publishing a lot of great content ... And so has Retro Recipes! 👍
Oh my GOD this video is swimming in nostalgia sauce! I never owned an Amiga, but was totally fascinated by them at the time and years later I emulated them in early WinUAE versions. Fascinating video! After you backed everything up my vote is for them to go to some museum. Thanks for sharing!
Andy Davidson brought his A1200 to our art class at Bournemouth School when I was in year 7 (the same class he wrote Total Wormage). He showed me ray tracing and morphing for the first time about a month before Jurassic Park released and... well... I've made a pretty alright career out of it. Guess I have Andy to thank!
In the 80,s and 90,s i lived in Leeds and used to visit a computer shop where Martin Brown worked before he went to Team 17 . I now live in Ossett which is mentioned in one of the worms games and its only 3 miles from Wakefield.
*Yorkshire! Yorkshire! Yorkshire!*
This is such an awesome Discovery! Can't wait to see more of this stuff shown off.
That is an awesome contribution. I personally can't believe someone would literally hand their recognised work like that over. Whatever you do with it - it definitely needs a loving home with someone who will appreciate it (whether that be a retro museum or a viewer), whatever you decide to do! I think you did right not to retrobrite the machine. Great video!
Hopefully he also kept some backups behind...
Super interesting episode! Awesome to have Lady Fractic make an appearance as well!
Brilliant once again!
Much love for the amazing Ashley! Definitely a great partnership in the making 😁
This video came up on my recommendations and I'm so glad I clicked. Fantastic content and your presentation is so smooth and soothing, like the Bob Ross of retro gaming. Subscribed!
Thank you for your kind words. Means a lot. 👍🕹
Amazing find! I spent days playing Worms as a kid! I just loved the humour in it!
Omg... good stuff! Hopefully the material will be accessible to everyone to make sure it survives down the road!
Seeing pre-usable-for-most-common-mortals lightwave 1.0 models, What a trip down memory lane looping my video toaster demo reels while playing dungeon master and worms to finally start using lightwave 3.0 with “lightwavers” on my amiga 1200... and still my favorite 3d software today. Hopefully the new buyers wont go escom/gateway on newtek. Thanks for this awesome video!
Wonderful video. It brought back lots of memories. I remember visiting 17 bit software in Wakefield on a number of occasions to get my fix of Amiga public domain software.
Your a legend! I can't thank you enough for this vid and saving and archiving it, it means a lot to everyone!
The very best things ever, the hours & hours playing & getting worms......the game of course!
What a haul! And its gone to a worthy home. You must have been like a kid on Christmas morning!
My favorite Amiga devs. I Remember them as 17-bit software from the early PD scene, I used to love the Amiga demo disks they had. Their games pushed the Amiga too, no ST ports to be seen here. What a top donation this is! facinating to watch the original artist rediscovering his old work.
This is gonna be a great series, looking forward to the next one. Great vid dude! :)
Definitely, as a more recent arrival on the Amiga platform, there were quite a few old games not familiar from my ST days ... and most of them, at least the ones that were technically impressive and really used the hardware rather than simply being too PD / too crap to bother porting, had a hirez-lace T17 logo at load time...
Particularly I was amazed to see Worms run on my A600, in very nearly the same quality and smoothness as we enjoyed on our DX2/66 PC. All that was missing were the voices and CD audio, and if I was to bother upgrading the RAM (especially finding some affordable way to add fastRAM in this day and age without installing a massively OTT accelerator board) to 2MB or more it'd have the full sample set. Quite what the PC was doing with its additional 6MB (especially as the video memory was entirely separate, so really "at least 6.25MB"), 57MHz and 16 bits, not to mention higher powered audio system, is anyone's guess.
I think the hardware and original items should go to a computer museum !
John Doe - Indy
I've never played Worms but what an excellent video!! It had everything, even an Ashley cameo. Always love your Amiga related vids.
It belongs in a museum! All of it!
It was awesome to see this original 3D files of worms cutscenes. Thanks for that!
Can't believe how much you put work in your videos. I just loved to see the whole story and realized how much hard work these guys have put into making the game. Thank you for sharing this amazing journey!
Thank you for your kind words. Means a lot. 👍🕹
As a huge Worms fan, may I say..... THANK YOU
Wow. Truly wow. It’s great to reach back through time and dig up something truly worthy of preservation. Thankyou for bringing this to us.
You can get the hard drives spinning by opening up the drive and giving the platter a small push. I’ve done it with many old macintosh SCSI drives that have been stuck after not being powered in for over 30 years.
Great video, thoroughly enjoyed it.
Sure, but I wouldn't do it with drives that contain priceless data such as these. Leave it up to a professional data recovery service, the risk of damaging the data beyond recovery is very high if attempting a DIY solution at home.
Too big of a risk of causing damage to heads or platters. Neither of which are easy to fix.
Doing this without some form of clean room/workspace is insane.
Wooooow! I remember most of these animations from the ps1-version I had back in the days. Good memories. I feel kinda privileged to see the creator of these animations browse through the ORIGINAL files here on the tube. Amazing stuff.
Terrific video.
I enjoyed Lightwave part a lot.
Chris did outstanding job with these animations back then, all the modeling, rigging. textures, lightning, animations and render.
Looks pretty good, even today... the editing of the shots was superb.
That was absolutely amazing! I played worms first on PC, and I absolutely remember those animations. Thanks for that trip down memory lane!
This is amazing brought back so many memories. I would love to add anything from the collection into my own. Thank you for bringing this back from the worm hole
This is really fantastic. It's mind-blowing how much of his old stuff Cris kept. It's awesome that he was willing to donate them so that the stuff could be preserved and enjoyed. I had some of my friends introduce me to worms back in high school. I'm pretty sure we played on PCs though (Amigas weren't really that big in the U.S). I have fond memories of playing it back then and later playing a version on the Super NES in an emulator. Can't wait to see what other cool things could be lurking on those disks. :D
wow, that machine in the pinnacle of OG Amigas. thanks for this video!!
Funny story about my first experience with worms.
I was at a colleague’s (still a good friend) back in 95/96 and we played it on the PC head to head. And we had so much fun. Suddenly we heard these 7 bangs!!! My colleague/friend literally jumped off his chair over the couch on the floor screaming: “get down! That’s gun fire!” I’m laughing my arse off seeing a 2 meter tall guy suddenly jumping from his chair over the couch that sat behind it. And I say: “dude, that’s fire works”.
He’s like: “I just got back from Yugoslavia and I know gun fire when I hear it.” I smiled and said: “come back here so I can light you up, it’s my turn!” We continued to play for another 4 or 5 hours.
The next day I read that two guys on a bike had driven by the Praethuys (the pub at the corner from my friend) and fired 7 bullets at the door from an Uzi.
My friend was right :) that Uzi in combination with us playing worms was hilarious in hindsight.
4 years later him and I are in the US and we let go in Tombstone. We were so drunk and we are sitting on the bench in front of our motel room. And I point to a shooting star. In my mildly intoxicated condition I pointed up at the shooting star and fell off the bench. We both instantly recalled that evening 4 or 5 years ago, when he kept like a cat over the couch whilst playing worms.
that is insane! Im soo glad you where able to get all the data and save it.
What an epic save retro history!
My copy of Worms: Armageddon just arrived in the mail today (big box, mint condition, _only_ game I'd be willing to spend that much money on). Then I open TH-cam and this video is sitting in the "Recommended" box, posted just a couple of days ago. What are the odds!
If Chris want's to come home and return it to Wakefield, our guy Duncan who's part of Retro Revival UK and South West Amiga Group would look after it for the next massive Retro Revival Event in Walsall, we would also be interested in Chris being involved with the next talks which will be in 2021. Thank you for the video - we love it
You mean Cris Blyth? Maybe we should go on tour with it!...
@@RetroRecipes Why not indeed.... we just had our event and we had Dizzy 'Oliver Twins', Bullfrog, Sensible Software, David Pleasance.. etc.. so do a tour and we see you in England soon ha
Haha, feel free to reach out via perifractic.com 👍🕹
I’d be up for that :)
@@RetroRecipes man, that would be fun !!..
Amazing find! Definitely should go to a museum in its current state. Do not retrobrite this one!! Any small repairs would be ok, like removing that battery obviously or anything required to keep it functional. Other than that leave it as it is.
this is the most amazing thing i've seen... this brought back so many memories
This is incredibly special.
Thank you for making this video
Thrilling and outstanding video, superb editing.
Yes, WOW !!
Thank you.
Wow. My jaw is still on the floor. What an amazing save!
I feel like i lived this adventure with you.
I love this video. Its so real and meaningful :)
This is the backbone of why retro gaming is so cool
That's great to hear as that was how I wanted it to feel. 👍🕹️
@@RetroRecipes I shared this on my Facebook group 'Games Masters'. Feel free to join bud.
For anyone interested in the history of Team17, I urge you to watch "The Story and Games of Team17 - Kim Justice" on here.
You know at around 9:10 in the video it mentions that the DNA of the Wakefield office is in that PSU? In my case, that's literally true. I'm rather amazed to say that somewhere in this venerated, almost holy object, is my DNA. And I don't need to imagine what it was like to sit in that chair (spoilers: it was very... office chair-y). I started work there about 18 months after Worms 1 appeared (Hi Cris great to see you again! Also hi to Rory and the other Rory!) with the supposed job of maintaining the hardware there, but almost no money to do it. Sadly I was only there for a year or so, but the people there were epic. A total honour to see these artists do their thing, and all sorts of stuff that never made it into released games. Good times.
I squeezed enough money out of Martyn to buy and fit at least one of those hard drives. Yeah the motors failed in other drives too. Sorry about that, we had to go for whatever was cheapest at Dabs or CCL whenever a new drive was needed. I think most of that Amiga's hardware actually belonged to Cris rather than T17 though - hence the Mac emulator etc? Not sure. I'm sure I remember it rendering more slowly than this too back then, so maybe a CPU upgrade happened. Lots of stuff was actually rendered on PCs or the SGI beast, but this Amiga is definitely the "daddy" Amiga. ISTR the monitor was a super flat Iiyama 17in CRT that weighed a ton. Oh - and it should be in a museum, preferably at home in the UK.
This is a fantastic discovery and preservation project. I true slice of gaming history! Thanks for sharing :)
Fantastic find and great to see that old machine load up. Plenty of non-Worms stuff on there too (I spotted Arcade Pool!).
I’ve voted for it to go to one museum as I think it should stay together as one exhibit. I would like to see everything released so that a community effort can happen to trawl through the drive images for hidden treasures!
Thanks for a great video 👍
Wow what a find. Man feels like it deserves a place in a museum.
I thought Mrs. Perifractic was a myth.
I always pictured her as Peri in a brightly coloured neon wig.
Bahahaha!
No, she's a mythyth.
This is material for a museum, seriously. Great recovery for the history of video games.
Awesome episode, played Worms on my amiga day and night back in the days. Great save.
Amazing. I remember getting Worms back in the day and to see treasure troves like this still exist - big thanks to Chris for not binning it all!
Preserved in the last minute - those harddrives sounded as if they were about to fail.
Wow. What a great gift! Fantastic memories, terrific job.
Awesome video, bringing back memories of a great game
I played Worms on the PC with my fiends and still play it with them when we meet eg. for birthdays. Thank you for giving us a glimpse of the history of worms! Im looking forward to the next episode...
Oh man this was your best episode to me , I love Amiga , i love Worms. What a find!!!
Thank you!
Nobody could resist kissing Puppyfractic! That’s really amazing to find an original game development Amiga, along with one of the programmers who used it and all the accessory files/disks/tapes/documentation, in a shed. It’s great they all survived all this time, subsisting on arcade tokens and old Colecovisions. Makes me wish I had gotten into Amiga back then.
I love this, it's like a form of technical archaeology.
wow! really enjoyed this episode - as a 3D guy myself I really appreciate the hard work people used to put into graphics back then, and especially when games like Worms were created. I too came from a background using LightWave on the Amiga, albeit on a much slower (but quite powerful computer for the time) - an Amiga 1200/030, creating images and some animations.
I now use Cinema 4D and Octane Render, which is still very similar to back then, although it is now MUCH faster, but sadly not instant, lol.
some of the stuff I've worked on, includes: Viva Amiga, The Retro Hour, David Pleasance's Book Cover, Amiga 30/32 and 34, etc. oh, and I created the image (at about 1 minute in) on this very video :)
fantastic Video, looking forward to the next one :)
mrP
And I love it! Thank you again! 👍🕹️
no problem @@RetroRecipes - it was cool to see my image on the startup of this video, with it being about graphics, and 3D graphic at that, loved it :) in fact, I have some ideas if you're interested? should I PM you?
Sure thing! We're connected on Messenger or email me via perifractic.com 👍🕹 Thanks!!
A actually use a Programm on windows that can open adf files and mount amiga formatet drives (I haven't tested the mounting thing but it says it works, even with a USB ide adapter). It's called adfview. It works great for me and meaby it can be usefull for you when backing up more amiga hard drives
I should add that the program hasn't been updated in a while but still works on windows 10
Absolutely love this !!! I've always loved the FMV's of the Worms series and this is just a dream find you got here, along with the man who made it all those years ago... Please, please, please !!! Do find a way to show off more of the lightway 3D development of the worms cutscene before you donate all the stuff. You truly made my day with this vid. Many Thanks Niki ;)
Thanks Niki! Nice avatar you've got there 😉 What sort of thing would you like to see more of?
Retro Recipes Thanks, a friend of mine design it for me (search of an artist called sonicguru). More of the playback wireframe animation (like the one you shown with the worms using the uzi) along with a look of some of the models (in polygon or rendered mode) that where made from the FMV's. If that's possible? Once again, Thank You. Niki
This is some kind of historic monument :)
I love playing Worms Armageddon with friends
Superb look at a team 17 a4000 and worms .
A momentous find and a wonderful video! Well done! I voted for the machine and assorted goods to end up in a retro museum. It's a complete treasure :)
you start the computer and hold 2 buttons together on the mouse and you click on Pal Mode, and Reboot. you do not need PAL monitor :) I have 4000 and 500 as well. very cool video! awesome find! what a memories, i can't believe the amiga started being stored like that in the shed :)
Well, that wasn't the issue. The monitor can't display PAL. Anyway we fixed it.
Laughed out loud when he mentioned the armpit issues because i remembered them looking odd even before the example was shown.
I played the dos port tho, never had an amiga.
Cant even take a guess at how many hours me and a couple of friends spent building forts out of the girders and then blowing it all up.
When Worms 2 came out we spent a lot of time recording our own voice pack and custom making levels.
Came here after watching the 8-bit guy :o) - you deserve way more subscribers!
Thanks Richard! Getting there... (He's been going over 10 years, me just 1.5...) Thank you for your kind words. Means a lot! 👍🕹
Donate to The Centre for Computing History, Cambridge, England
cant believe i live around the corner from the building in Wakefield where this stuff took place and never knew the history of the place,
WOW! What an amazing museum quality find.
Lookup Louis Rossmann, He has recently started HDD recoverey & backups from dead machines.
TheEPROM9 There's also professional services with much more experience.
I was about to suggest him as well
I bet they deal with new drives. Better use someone who was active when these drives were made.
This is breathtaking stuff. Chris, you've outdone yourself yet again. Thank you so much!! :D
That really means a lot to me, thank you so much 👍🕹️
Thank you for this wonderful video ! This made my day.
4th backup option... Boot into Linux. dd if=/dev/sda of=/location.img. This will work in virtual box if you don't want to install Linux.
Alternately, there's dd_rescue and rescue_dd. These will allow you to attempt reading the drive backwards, bypassing a lot of functions of the drive, often resulting in making an unreadable drive readable again. There's loads of write ups on how to use these tools out there on the web, so I won't delve much more into it. : )
Great video. Keep em coming. : )
@@ksln I've never heard of those before. I will have to check them out!
DD Rescues is awesome, but there are even better data recovery tools out there as well that can ignore checksum errors and make a 99.999% copy of a harddrive. Check out Scott Moultons channel if you want to learn more: th-cam.com/users/SuperFlyFlippingA
Or use a DVD that's bootable to a linux desktop and a external ssd or flash drive
@@ksln would that work on a 32 GB sandisk extreme SD card?
My Samsung Galaxy j3 messed it up and I want my files back
Thank you very much for the video !
The first ever CD based game I've ever owned was Worms Armageddon. One of my favorite games of all time. Still love it to this day, although it's been a while since I've last played any Worms game.
What an awsome pice of history! Worms was among my favorite games when i was younger, ha ha!
Amazing that Team17 hasn’t gone after the use of Minions. Never realized it before but there is a definite likeness there.
A Minions themed Worms-a-like game could be pretty fantastic TBF
Wow, this is so awesome. Would be cool to navigate all this. Can’t wait to get access.
I'm a year late but, this was wonderful. It took me back to when I had my A500 and later A2000. I used it for more than games.
Thank you for your kind words. Means a lot! 👍🕹
Great video, Mr. Fractic. What a rare bit of loot to happen upon!
That is awesome. I can't even count how many hours I spent playing 'Worms: Armageddon'
Brilliant. I think I saw pictures of some of the storyboards in an amiga magazine article back in the day.
