English Amiga Board - View Single Post - WHDLoad games with Filenames not supported by Windows

IMHO any game that has been ripped to files and has files that end with a full stop should be patched. Many Atari ST ports have this problem and will cause errors on WinUAE. I have patched the loaders (or filenames) on games like Puzznic, Wanted, Ian Botham's Cricket etc to eliminate this problem.

If anyone knows of other games that suffer this problem they should submit a bug report on the WHDLoad site.
