English Amiga Board - View Single Post - WinUAE detecting and making use of the swap file

Hi,

Could it be possible for WinUAE to detect and make use of the swap file ?
I noticed some PC game (Mechwarrior IV, presumably) issues a warning when it doesn't detect any swap file upon setup (on a non-c partition). Of course, it's still possible to play this game without any swap file, but I assume performance is slightly degraded.

Similarly, I figured out WinUAE detecting the swap file on the partition on which it runs and using it to improve overall performance.

I didn't give this very deep thoughts I must say, so the pointless request monicker may come down faster than expected !
