WHDload problem Part 2

Tolismlf · 02 December 2004, 16:36

I use WHDLoad and i have a big problem. I have downloaded some games in WHDLoad lzx packages. I unziped them and when i tried to run a game it says that i don't have the kickstart in devs:kickstarts/kick40068.A4000 or in another case it asks for kick34005.A500 in the same dir. It says about a seek failure or something.
I have downloaded skick345 and put the kickstarts in devs:kickstarts directory but the problem is still there. What can i do?

btw some games don't ask for a kickstart and play normally.

Skick doesn't actually come with Kickstarts, as they are Amiga Kickstart ROM images, are copyrighted and cannot be freely spread!

You need to have the kickstart for the a500 named as Kickstart34005.a500 in your DEVS/Kickstarts dir

and the matching RTB in the directory too

I did it i put the kick13 rom to the devs:kickstarts dir and rename it to Kick34005.A500 but the problem remains.

You need both kick34005.a500 and kick34005.A500.RTB to be placed there.

Ok i understood but i can't find the right Kick roms anywhere. I have no time to search in eMule and wait. Anyway i will stick with the games that run.
