The Loader also mentions having a collection of games to choose from so in that case do you need a DH(number) drive for each game with a .slave in each root?

And then what would be the maximum number of games in a collection?

I'll be happy to get it working with even just one game per configuration but it might be useful to have a list to choose from.

You can mount DH1: to a directory full of games sub directories. You point Tiny Launcher (see Sysconfig section) to DH1: (or any other valid path) and it will scan for any .slave files, supporting subdirectories. So you don't need a separate DHx: drive for each game. This is 'Slave Collection' mode in my diagram.

I'm not sure of the max number of games Tiny Launcher supports.

If you want to do that then you could follow a simpler solution that I wrote a few years back...

See this post.

Thanks guys.
Mounting a single folder properly as DH1 (along with the Solarmon's launcher in DH0) worked perfectly.
Am still gonna check out your link though DamienD, I'm hoping to learn as much as possible towards setting up an ultimate Amiga gaming PC

As requested, I've already gave you URLs to my collection

Glad you got it working!

There's quite a few WHDLoad game collection launchers that you might want to explore further:

TinyLauncher
X-Bench
AGS2
iGame
AGLauncher
KGLoad

Can't thank you enough for that! What an amazing collection!
I've hit the 5GB limit for now (even though I used incognito it seems to have done it by ip address) so I'll get the rest today and try it later.

Also thanks Solarmon for helping me get this working. Your launcher's brilliant so I'll stick with that for now!

and thanks everyone else that provided valuable tips! I love this place!

Weird, Chrome in incognito worked fine for me with downloading all in one go when testing.

You could also use a VPN or even TOR to get over the 5GB per day Mega.nz limit
