People, I used to play Lotus on my computer. I don't know if the title was more than just Lotus, but is was a race game. You could chooce between a few lotus cars and you could create your own track with trucks crossing or with turbo zones and more. I hope someone can tell me more about this game and where I can find more info. I am desperatley seeking!

Thanks.

obviously you haven't done any searches for roms in a while. They are almost impossible to find (or at least the console roms are) nevertheless, i will do a search for the Amiga Rom and Emulator and play what i hope will be a good game

It was really easy to guess. I can't remember it, though.

I found some version but it doesn't work on my PC (under win98) - the error is "...divide overflow..." or something

Well, in that I'm only interested in SNES roms, they are relatively easy to find.

The absolute easiest ROMs to find, and MAME roms.

Lotus was actually a DOS game (made by Gremlin Interactive). There was a shareware version that only gave you one car on one track. I don't know where to download it, though.

I think the full name is "Lotus III Raceway".

well if u can't find amiga roms then look for the FAR FAR FAR superior machine THE ATARI ST :D and although this isn't the rom site its actually a dedicated ST site which can steer you to the right way to finding the games do a search for it-> the little green desktop

Hi, i had that game a long time ago! :cuccoan:
I dont know if you are talking about the same...i just remember that it was called Lotus III and it was a demo version and i could only drive a green car :) I was too young thats all i remember. It was the coolest racing game i had with great music, perfect for those years with dos OS.

hey

Lotus 3
Life & Death 1, 2, and 4
Quest for Glory 4

Found at:

http://www.the-underdogs.org/

Try visiting the site between 12:00 and 0:00 GMT because their bandwidth is limited!!!

They've got a lot of great DOS games, unfortunatly, couldn't find Quest for Glory 5 anywhere...

Had some problems with Lotus 3 though. DIVIDE OVERFLOW error. Didn't try it on my 386 yet.

I tested Life & Death 1 on my 8088 without any problems.
