How to play hard disk games with WinUAE
« on: July 07, 2003, 08:55:49 PM »
Hi!

I wonder if Its possible to play HD-games with WinUAE or do I have to owne Amiga Forever to do that? If its possible I am glad if anybody can tell me how to do it.

In which form do you have those HD games ?

If you have downloaded a HDF file it should be possible to just add the HDF to WinUAE's harddrives list. If the HDF is set up properly WinUAE should boot off the hdd and start the game automaticaly.

If you have the game on floppies and want to install it on hdd, you need a proper AmigaOS installation. The only legal way to obtain this is AmigaForever if you don't already own AmigaOS.

Bye,
Thomas

Sure it's possible, go to the Harddrives tab, add a directory. There inside the emulation you'll be able to store everything you want: the OS, games, demos, images.....
