HeHe... the only disconnect with WHDLoad is that it's still the best kept Amiga secret on the planet! I couldn't figure out what the heck it was all about and didn't really try for years. Once I figured out the real potential of WHDLoad, I bought an A1200 the same day just to have an AGA WHDLoad machine, That was in 2010! I'm convinced that a whole lot more people would be buying Amiga machines if there was a big 'ole button to click, prominately displayed on this site, explaining WHDLoad in simple terms and what it's capabilities are.

To accomplish what your asking for, you need 3 things.

1. The WHDLoad program itself here...http://whdload.de/whdload/WHDLoad_usr.lha

2. Legal ROM files...you can either create these yourself from your real Amiga machines or you can download and pay for them here... http://www.amigaforever.com/

3. Some game files.... I won't directly point to the files but, everything you need is right here.... http://www.lemonamiga.com/

There are alternatives, Google is your friend.

Follow the WHDLoad guide to install your ROM files. Create a folder on your A1200 HDD named WHDLoad games. Create subfolders named A B C etc.... and place game files corresponding alphabetically in appropriate subfolders. You really don't need iGame or any other launcher.

As far as unzipping files with a GUI, these two programs work great on my A1200....

P.S.... You'll need an accelerator for best performance... these are available for preorder here....

DMS and ADF files are images of packed files. To unpack a  DMS files use this first. WHDLoad only uses Slave files.   http://aminet.net/package/disk/misc/diskimage.m68k-aos  Also, interesting read on disk images...  http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=41711
