Ok, in keeping with the journey so far.... another road block.

The Select File button does nothing. nothing at all.

Is this the fault of installer or WHDLoad or.... something else? good times.... :-/


Thanks again!!

I'm running the pre-packaged WHDLoad script thingies... One worked (Rebels Megademo)

And 2 failed so far... it's weird they won't let me choose a source for the adf file. The Lemmings one said that I had to choose "expert mode" if I was loading from adf.... which I did... and it made no difference.

The Amiga world really is just held together with stickytape & faded dreams isn't it... ;)

To be sure- I just verified I have the latest WHDLoad (from WHDLoad.de)  - and the 44.1 installer... ( I had 43.3 or something...) no difference.

Also the WHDLoad Lemmings file came directly from the WHDLoad.de site... so one might assume they are the best ones to use?

Yay computers.  >:-S

What's a RAWDic? ... if that's not a rude question?


I installed that megademo, and it's older than Lemmings...

Any solutions very much welcomed. It would seem that the very first game I try to install is the one with a legacy of issues... only 1 actual install file on the whole internet that I can find...

Curious that the same thing happened with the Turrican install... Could it be that RAWdic thing? I'm out of options...

I've visited that site already... it doesn't offer any Install files. ... I don't know how to manually rig WHDLoad to search for a specific adf etc...

"Ready to run" in what sense? I've downloaded these... I couldn't get anything useful to happen.

I think the reason I'm banging my head against this brick-wall is that I really want to have some sense of a reliable procedure to work across all the adfs I have... I'm quite set on replaying the games as I had them on floppy disk- not just "any version"

I'll try these again and see if I can swap out some files somehow...
