nahoo, do you have a Harddrive in your A2000?
Well the solution is very simple to get old games to work...........and not only that, but to get them all installed on your HD!
The Answer?
Get WHDLoad !!!!!! period!
and get JST also.
These programs are dreams come true. I have about 160 games on my Amiga Hard drive.and that includes very old ones that work only with 1.3.
I have Shadow of the beast 1, 2 and 3, I have Sword of Sodan, Alien Syndrome (worked with 1.2 only and now works fine with 3.1) Arkanoid 2, Dynablaster, Pacmania, F/A 18 Interceptor, ELF, The Chaos Engine 1, and 2, Turrican 1, 2 and 3, Chase HQ 1, and 2, Alien Breed SE,, Pinball Fantasies and Pinball Dreams...................................................................and tons more.
Make your life simple and get WHDLoad. You don't need to register it, but will have to eventually, and I recommend it so that you wont get the splash window.
Do yourself a favor and get WHDLoad. it basically lets you install hundreds or thousands of Games that were not meant to be Installed on HD, and also makes them compatible with WB 3.1 and AGA amigas.
You only need the ROM switcher if you are going to be booting games from floppy............and boy is that annoying and slow. I like walking around with my Amiga 600 or CD32/SX32, knowing that I have all or most of my Floppy games installed in that little tiny Harddrive in my system. Instead of carryin 5 or 10 games around in floppy cases, I can simply take my A600 to a friends house knowing that I have not 10 games nor 20, but 160, or 200 or 300 games in my HD ready to be executed by a simple pulldown menu (ToolsDaemon and MagicMenu) and have access to a huge library of Games. Fun Fun Fun.
