Title: 2 Things really....
Post by: on March 03, 2003, 11:29:07 AM

I have just dug out my old amiga a500 and fancied a bit of retro gaming.  However I have 2 things I'd like to try and figure out:

1.  I remember playing a game years ago which was basically a robot going around a building and trying to hack its way into other robots....  You started as a small round thing and when you were trying to hack another robot a small electrical spark would stick out. On successfully connecting yourself to another robot you'd then be taken to a hacking screen where you'd have to outhack the other robot by connecting some lines.  Thing is I can't remember what the game was called and I'm hoping that someone out there may be able to help me.

2.  I cant find my old copy of Supercars 2, I have a rom image somewhere for an emulator on my PC - is there anyway to copy the image onto a floppy for my Amiga?  If so how do I do it?

Thanks in advance

Hi Havok,

Number 1 sounds like Paradroid (or a clone of it).

I presume the Supercars disk is an ADF file. If so, use ADF2Disk (http://ftp.sunet.se/pub/aminet/disk/misc/adf2disk11.lha) to convert it to work on a real Amiga.

OK, I've got a CD using the Joliet/ISO9660 format and it has my ADF's on it.  How can I get those ADF's from a PC to my Amiga so that I can use adf2disk?

is it possible?

Null modem and a terminal program on each computer.  Do a file transfer with ZMODEM or something like that.
