BR magazines

If you don't mind waiting I'm slowly digging through those magazines from Retro Avengers and spotting adverts in the middle of them which match 100% with most of the watermarked back covers (see Supergame 01 and 02 for example). I'm also cropping the ones with good scans and making new PDFs before uploading them (see other Supergame issues, like 03 and 04). --AllisonKidd (talk) 17:13, 6 August 2015 (CDT)

Ultimate Future Games issue 2

Hi, do you have access to the free book that came with this issue? Thanks http://retrocdn.net/File:UltimateFutureGames_UK_02.pdf Matt (talk) 18:02, 10 September 2017 (CDT)

If I did, it would be on this wiki :P -Black Squirrel (talk) 11:49, 11 September 2017 (CDT)

Edge scans

Hi,

I've noticed that the Edge UK scans that you've uploaded here seem to be from the same source as the ones that used to be hosted on L0ver0ms.com, but quite a few of yours are substantially reduced in quality and size. For some reason this isn't the case for all of the uploads however, for instance issue #67 seems to match the original quality/file size. But especially for all of those sub-100 MB ones, the difference is quite noticeable. The file sizes from that aforementioned site are still visible via archive.org, though all of the downloads there are non-working.

There's also a collection of Edge scan uploads on archive.org, though from a different source and also pretty low quality, at least the .pdfs. It'd be a shame if that full collection of high quality .pdfs was really gone for good... Asdfsfs (talk) 15:13, 3 November 2020 (EST)

That's because they'll have been uploaded at different times from different places. Higher quality versions for some of these will still be out there, but our set hasn't been updated (yet) -Black Squirrel (talk) 03:15, 5 November 2020 (EST)

PDF browsing

excuse me, I don't know where to ask questions, and you seem quite expert. When opening the wiki page of a pdf file, I'm sure it was possible to browse the pages and even link to a specific page. Cover pages were shown in categories. Now I can only download the whole pdf, and categories only show Adobe icons. Is it just me, or we lost some functionality?--Garantito al limone (talk) 18:07, 18 January 2024 (EST)

We have - Retro CDN has stopped rendering thumbnails for whatever reason. It's a known bug, but I don't have the powers to fix it
They still work fine on Sega Retro though, so if you replace "https://retrocdn.net" with "https://segaretro.org" in the URL, they should render fine -Black Squirrel (talk) 08:08, 27 January 2024 (EST)
