Hey guys,

I hope you have all been well. I haven't been very active in the community for the past few months, but I've actually been working on something recently that is under wraps. I'm hoping to release some info about it shortly, but it still needs a lot of work (it is not a game, unfortunately, but it does have to do with OHR).

I found a couple of zip files on a floppy from 2002 that I've been trying to get to work on my computer. The two files are:

http://larriveeguitargear.com/old1.zip

and

http://larriveeguitargear.com/old2.zip

Old1 I can't even unzip, as it says it is corrupt. I have tried using a couple of free zip fixers, but none of them have worked.

I can unzip old2, but I get these two errors when I try to run the game:

and

http://larriveeguitargear.com/error2.png

I'd really like to see what these old files are about if possible. Any help would be much appreciated.

They're both copies of The Omega.

Well, I know that much. They are both my games, but I'd like to see exactly what they are considering they were put on a floppy back in the early 2000s. This was way before I started making The Omega, that was released last year.

Somehow, I managed to repair it, and it turned out being a super old version of The Omega. In fact, I'm pretty sure it was the very first version. You can walk around a bit in the first town and fight one citizen, but that is pretty much it. I may upload it here just for the record that it actually existed.
