Data Decruncher
 
Hi all, new here but not new to the Amiga or Emulators.

Back in the day (about 15 years ago) my local computer shop used to sell all the Amiga PD disks and music demos etc.

I 100% remember buying a disk that was a compilation of packers (power packer - Titanics cruncher etc) and on that disk there was an app that came complete with a shedload of decrunch librarys that could unpack just about any datafile/executable done with all of the leading packers.

I can't for the life of me remember what the app is called and have spend many months searching but without the name i don't actually know what i am searching for.

Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated. :confused

Awesome, that looks like it. Any idea where i can get it in .adf format?

I have found it in .lha format which i can work with but would prefer .adf if possible.

In any case thank you very very much for the super fast reply.:great

You could always use WinUAE to create an .adf disk file and write the contents of the .lha to that .adf :)

Extracted on my laptop with 7zip then mounted the folder as a hardrive with WinUAE and copied the files to a blank .adf

Bit rusty with WinUAE but got there in the end.

Thanks for the App name Toni :great

Thanks aswell PMC thats what i ended up doing :)

EDIT: checksum error on the created .adf

i tried formatting directly with the amiga os and with directory opus but both get to 100% then give me a checksum error.

EDIT 2: I had the 'floppy drive emu speed at 800%' , dropped it to 100% and problem solved, :bash
