Octamed on UAE - Font Folder?
« on: January 01, 2011, 09:03:29 PM »
As this is my first post here, I'd like to say hello first off.

I've been using a couple Amiga 500s for the past two years to create music, and love this machine's quirks and wonderfully gritty sound.  My friend asked me recently to remix one of his tracks from his 1200, and sent me all the data files, and a copy of UAE.  After getting an emulation of his computer set up, I found that I could not load octamed from the emu due to it wanting a fonts disk in a different drive than DH0........

I've tried to find a disk creator/organizer for the emu, but can't find one that will let me add files to a disk, as I've found the fonts that I think it's looking for.....

I'm still pretty new to the amiga systems, so I've run out of ideas of why this would happen.......Any suggestions?

@Xdelusion:  I'm actually going to send the file back to my friend to be exported/recorded from his 1200, so I need it to be in amiga MOD format, not sure if this could do that.  I'll be doing my research though!

@runequester:  I'm not sure what you mean by that, could you give a noob-style explanation as I'm pretty bad with actual programming and routing.......

I'm actually not looking for "quality" sound, and will still be running my A500 to get some of those original sounds.  I'm just having difficulty with my internal floppy drive ATM.  It's eating my disks all the time........

@Salax54: I'm pretty sure it is Version 5, if not higher........it's copyright 1996

@Motorollin: the prompt reads like this:
System Request
Please insert volume
FONTS
in any drive

Thanks for the help everybody, I found a solution.........just download the disks.

@Moto:  I'm very confused, as I said I'm not a programmer, Just a musician:roflmao:

As for octamed running on the emu, it works, but there's a lot of buffering noise while working, but not so much when you're just playing a song.  Looks Like I need to find a 1200 LOL
