Title: I need DOPUS 4.11
Post by: Nick_66 on January 20, 2017, 08:33:01 PM

Hi all,

I just bought the new ACA500+ for my Amiga 500+ and installed Classic WB Lite.

When I want to start DOPUS I get the message: Need a 68020 or higher.

Checked the version installed and it's version 4.16

Read on the internet that version 4.11 will work on a A500 but this version is really hard to find.

I would really appreciate if someone can point me to a site where I can download it.

Thanks for the help!

Try 4.12 from here (http://dopus.free.fr/download.php).

I would vote for DirWork.  Up to version 1.62 was shareware, 2.1 was commercial but included on many cover disks.  Used it for years as the "poor man's DOpus", still do, in fact.  I spent so many years customizing it I'm too old to change my ways.  ;)  Only downside is it has issues writing to partitions out beyond the first 4GB of a disk, but I think a lot of older Amiga software has similar issues.

Diskmaster was my goto back in the day.  These days I seem to be using Dopus.   Maybe I should give Diskmaster a go again.

Edit - You can actually download dopus versions 4.11 and below from the EAB FTP mirror.    PM sent.

Hi all!

Thanks for all the replies. Just got a PM and managed to download version 4.11

I also will try Disk Master.

I prefer dopus because I am used to that one.

UPDATE: just installed version 4.11. Is there a build in LHA extractor in version 4.11?

Diskmaster does not seem to work on my A500+: I am getting an error: Programm failed (error #80000003)

Not exactly. But the default configuration will allow you to extract LHAs by clicking on the file in the source  lister and then quickly clicking into the destination lister. LHA needs to be in C:.
