whdload packs?

[monami]

i'm trying to work out if these are the full games all ready sorted for quick use? if so do you just drag and drop them onto your amiga hard disk? i like that idea i don't want to have to use floppy disks.

[foleyjo]

There are packs where they are the full game and you usually have to unzpip them and then they work.
(assuming you have whdload and the keyfile)

They are illigal unless you own the game

[monami]

i assume the key file is a registration number?

You don't need a keyfile for WHDLoad, there will just be a delay each time you run a game.

The downloads links on the  Amiga Forever site has links to free legal downloads, including WHDLoad packs.

Everyone should register whdload. It is the best thing that happened to Amiga.

many WHDLOAD slaves will not work with unregistered WDHLOAD installs....

£15 is the price. It is the best Amiga purchase that I have made in 10 years!

i've just sent my money and am waiting the keyfile which can take a few days... i'll have to get my amiga up and going. :-)

"requirements: a minimum of 1.0 MB RAM (sometimes more, it depends on the installed program)"

is that fastram? just wonder how well it works on a stock a1200?

[orange]

poorly, you need fast ram.

[foleyjo]

It really does depend on what game you play. Extra Ram will allow you to use the preload option which makes the loading of games quicker

[monami]

it's all setup and installed and i've managed to enjoy some games. but alot of them keep nagging about silly version named kickstart roms i haven't put in my devs/ kickstarts because none of the rom images i have seem to work.

any idea what versions they are supposed to be. and where to get them? i am legal to use them all.

job done.

boy am i sodded off trying to get the kickstarts to work. can someone zip up a working dev:kickstarts drawer and mail me? or  help in some other way. :crazy:
i own an a500+ (and have the cheapy version of amiga forever with 1.3 rom.) a600 and upgraded a1200. so i have 1.3, 2, 3 and 3.1 roms. i am entitled to use those roms. (and no i'm not going to use transrom etc etc. life is too short.)

Nice attitude. Then I guess life is too short to waste on games as well.

But seriously, don't expect people to just mail you Amiga ROMs out of the blue. If you really have those ROMs, just fix it yourself. Read the WHDLoad documentation, it says exactly what these ROM files must be called, and what else you'll need. :rtfm:
