In this version cracked by SCSI of Betrayal, the ending animation does not play at the end of the game.

Cracked by Enless piracy but not perfectly despite what the cracktro says: after some time the game will eventually detect that it is not running from an original floppy disk and it will not be possible anymore to revive dead champions on a Vi altar.

Chaos Strikes Back for Amiga version 3.3 (French) hacked for hard disk installation and support of accelerator cards by Meynaf.
This version contains the files from both the game disk and utility disk.
The files are identical to the originals. They are just copied in folders and a new loader program runs the game and patches required files in memory.
As the utility disk is French only, the language choice on the game disk was removed.

There are also programs that allow running some game versions from a hard disk:
Hard disk patches for Dungeon Master and Chaos Strikes Back from Aminet: In the directory "game/patch" of Aminet, there are two hard disk patches for Dungeon Master (dmpatch.lzh, dmhd.lha for version 3.6) and one for Chaos Strikes Back (csbhd.lzh).

The Amiga animations were captured with the WinUAE emulator. The videos were then compressed with Smacker by RAD Game Tools. The executable files have the player built-in (for Windows 9x/NT/2000/XP) so you don't need to download it separately.

You will notice that the Amiga Introduction of Chaos Strikes Back is far better than the Atari ST one (it has music, more graphics and animations and it is longer).

You can check the Chaos Strikes Back Hints page to learn how to view the ending animations without actually finishing the game.
