Some non-whdload or JST HD-Installs

Hi there,

In the first place, I'd like to clear that I registered WHDload years ago and I enjoy it inmensely!
However, my old Amiga 1200's accelerator, a simple 4MB add-on, is getting flaky therse days so I took it out, going back to the basic Amiga 1200 68020 2MB Chip machine for a while.

So, before I proceed to get a new memory expansion board, I'm experimenting to get the most of it. Being limited t 2MB Chip, I found out that A LOT of Whdload games load and run flawlessly, no problems at all, no stalls, fast... perfect! with just 2MB! (And a minimal startup-sequence wich leaves around 1800KB free after boot, of course).

Lots of other games, like Monkey Island, Amber saga, Simon The Sorcerer, Heimdall II... are HD-Installable anyway, so here I go, another bunch of games running GREAT from HD with NO memory expansion at all! Including the AWESOME Cannon Fodder release by Triangle, wich won't save on the Minimig but works a treat on the 1200

But there are some games that are resisting: some won't even start on Whdload because of my low memory, and others will run with long loading times, os-swapping and ruined intros, etc. So I'm looking for these games, in HD-Installed form, with no JST or Whdload:

-Zool 1 & 2
-Prophecy I : The Viking Child (heh, what a short saga!)
-AladdinAGA
-Pinball Dreams
-Lotus 3

I KNOW ther are out there somewhere: in the eab ftp I found some non-whdload games, namely JST installs, but they are more or less the same, and none of the listed games was there anyway.
So, any pointers would be nice!

You can always close Workbench when starting WhdLoad, thus you will get more memory free.
