Transfer WHDLoad games to Vampire V4
« on: April 14, 2025, 08:24:55 PM »
Hi,

Can someone please tell me the best way to transfer my WHDLoad  collection of games from the CF card on my Amiga 1200 to my standalone Vampire V4.

Would I be able to plug the CF card into my PC and transfer them onto the V4 CF card without any issues?

Thanks
A1200 - ACA 1221EC Accelerator, 32GB CF Card, SCSI CD-ROM, WB3.9, 3.1.4 ROM. PCMCIA 4GB transfer card, Indivision AGA MK2

Is the Vampire V4 setup on your home network? I.e Roadshow TCP/IP stack up and running? If so you could try a network share with Samba.

Failing that. Use WinUAE with a pre-setup AmigaOS on a HDF, then add the V4 CF card and A1200 CF.

Remember Amigas use bespoke filesystems. Windows can only see NTFS, FAT, Ex-FAT natively.

Whould have to agree, WinUAE is easier, just remember to set the buffers on partitions.
Before I knew about buffers, I had my WHDLoad drive copying over for 3 days, lol. As soon as I sorted buffers, 10 mins.

Insert your A1200’s CF into Vampires CF adapter and copy its contents to Vampire’s microSD 😃

This would be a brilliant idea but A1200 is using a SD card rather than a CF card  :'(
