How do you convert adf files to real Amiga-discs?
« on: May 22, 2004, 04:36:47 PM »
Hello!

I have lots and lots of amiga games, albeit in adf-format for winUAE. Recently I bought a real Amiga. Now I'd like to play the adf-formatted games on the Amiga-machine.

How can I convert the files?

Thanks, Pantofis

Thank you very much! I have found the files: adfblitzer.lha, devcopy etc.
 
However, try as I might I cannot run them!

The extraction was half-successful at best (using lha213.exe on MS-DOS), and none of the extracted files was something I could handle.

As you understand I'm really very new to all this. Could you help me?


Thank you, Ivan

P.S. I also own a 25-pin nullmodem-cable

Hi, it`s Pantofis again!

Well, I still can`t convert adf-files for my Amiga.

Perhaps I should state what I have: I have an Amiga 500, a PC and a Nullmodem cable.

As far as I understand, a PC won`t write amiga-discs.
That means that as long as I don`t have a terminal program on the Amiga, I`m not able to do any transfer whatsoever.

Could anybody send me a terminal program per mail?

I have also found a little basic-program for Amiga that is supposed to be "transdisc". However it won't work, because the drive needs the "Workbench"-disc everytime the "Basic/Extras"...

Can anyone help me? Maybe someone can recommend a step-by-step site or something for people with very little Amiga-knowlege.

Thank you, Pantofis

Thank you!

I do have "Workbench"1.3 and all the extras.

And then?
How can I get the terminal program for the 500?

What means to "z-modem" a filE?

Thank, Pantofis
