 1551 Compatible MegaDemo?

Chaps, Is there any of the multi-part mega demos for the plussy that are compatible with the 1551? All those I've tried so far seem to hang. I'm looking for something that I can leave running for a couple of hours to give my 1551 a thorough workout.

Cheers,

Rob

Here's a few, actually can't think of any more than these:
Amiga Mania
Coby TCL Mega
Radioactive Zone
Terror Bubble

Also, if you're working through the Top List of Megademos: all of the ones where the Device Rreq. says "Disk Only (# sides)", but it's in fact 1541 only, please edit that field and correct it happy I see that Notizen aus der Provinz is the first one in the list that actually says that.

Most of Ceekay's later demos and games supported the 1551, such as Friction for example.

You may also try The 2nd which is a BSZ production too, although I'm not 100% sure.

Sorry to resurrect such an old thread.
I can't get Amiga Mania running from the 1551 (or Metamerism although its not on this list...)
I get the first text screen, and then it says "loading now..." but its not.

Im writing the images using cbm command.

I don't think Amiga Mania supports the 1551 (the version I have from here), it was probably a mistake to suggest it does.

(edit)

Oops... :) I missed that one.

Metamerism uses a specific 1541 trackloader, the famous one by Krill, it can't run on a 1551.
Did you try the Amiga Mania proper 1551 version?
