Can anyone direct me to the files required to play Alien Breed 2?

I have fond memories (I think) but I won't know until I've played it.  I tried downloading DOS-box and An Amiga emulator but got nowhere. Grrr.

Please give me an idiot guide.


gaming: E4400@2.66GHz / P5K-E / 2x1GB PC8000@533MHz / 2x80GB D'Max 9-RAID0 + 320GB / 8800GTS 512MB / ViewSonic VX2835wm
server+media: P4 2.8GHz @ 2.4GHz / 775Dual-VSTA / 2x512MB PC3200 / 1000GB+500GB+250GB / HD2400pro
also: P3 for the mrs and a linux box and probably enough bits to build another one

You try WinUAE? Didn't get much into amiga games, but found it really good - can be quite in-depth though. Website and help/readme files will explain using it.

Just buy a second hand Amiga and connect it to the telly

As boywander said WinUAE is the best bet

Head to the homepage to grab the latest version, you'll need the kickstart roms as well of course but I cant say where to get them as that wouldnt be legal.

Install or unzip it (depending on which version you download) then its time to set it up, when you start it you'll be presented with the quickstart options that have a drop down menu to select which model Amiga to emulate & waht configuration of it to emulate as well for example you could pick Amiga 500 as the model then 1.3 rom (kickstart rom) ECS Angus (video type), 1MB chip ram (well the ram obviously).  Under those options is the screen res you want and under that the option to insert a floppy image, theres two emulated disk drives to use under the quick start options.

...or, if you feel like giving your ears a treat, download the music for Alien Breed II from here :-

It should play with Winamp.

The site contains many Amiga music files for your aural delight, just search.

Hi Coolwolf, a bit of necro-posting but thanks for that.  I had forgotten about it (I wasn't successfull last time) but I have next week off so I may give it a go again.

Nice. They have the .mod's from the games too. I forgot that Winamp played these - properly.


5 CC wins, and proud of my messy dive!
