Floppy disk images in shapeshifter
« on: April 04, 2014, 07:53:37 PM »
I've got a couple of disk archives, Prince of Persia and Wolfenstein, to use in Shapeshifter. I can display the archive and see two .dsk files in the wolfenstein archive but they just try and open in a text viewer. It looks like I should be able to mount the images as disk but can't. Is this a limitation of Shapeshifter or do I need to do something in mac os?

I've looked online about mounting disk images in os 761 and not had any joy with renaming the files to .img or using diskdup.

Any help is welcome. Thanks.

Hi. Thanks for the reply and sorry for the delay - I've only been back on my Amiga today - first time since I last posted.

I use stuffit to extract the archives within ShapeShifter.

Today I tried disk copy (6.3.3) and that mounts the images without a problem. I've now manged to install & test Wolfenstein!
