Amiga Format cover disk.
 

I have an Amiga Format cover disk with the Chaos engine and Act of Valour on it.

When I put it in load up AMIDOS and say about DeCrunching Act of valour. It asks me to put in an empty disk which I do, and put the coverdisk back in . The will keep asking me to do this just about 15-20 swaps I assume something is not right. Any ideas? I just wanna play The Chaos Engine!

Have a look at page number 6 here: http://amr.abime.net/issue_196_pages

is that for a 1.3 machine?,i can see a problem here.

isent the guys machine a kickstart 2.0 500+

That's what I asked in the other thread ;)

That looks interesting I'll try following that, Many thanks.

You're welcome and fingers crossed it works :) Can you put ADF images on disks yet? If you can't do it on your A500+ I can create the ADF for you.

Em ADF is the Amiga disk image right? like ISO for CDs.

I don't know how to put one on a disk? why would I need to?

I'm so surprised my dad managed to do all this for me when I was young, I always thought he was computer illiterate till a couple of years ago.

Yep, indeed like that.

To put for example coverdisks from AMR or other free software on the internet back to real disks and use them in your A500+. Anyway, good luck with that coverdisk for now.

I understand that I meant for this particular question!

I would love to be able to pull games off of the net and play em, I did ask what the easiest way to do this was but by all accounts it is very difficult.

I can't work out why there isn't a PC program that will allow you to format a floppy into an amiga format and load a ADF.

I can;t see how it would be that hard unless the hardware is in capable of doing it.

I mean you can format harddrive/pen drives to NTFS/FAT why not floppies to ADF!

as far as i know pc drives are not compatible with adf files,well not without extra hardware anyway.
