Having trouble adding a new game
I'm not familiar with Amiga Workbench conventions so apologies in advance for any simple errors!
I recently purchased the digital version of Reshoot Proxima 3. I installed the game onto SSD "Saves/WHDSaves/MyGames/ReshootProxima3/reshootProxima3". "Saves" is the name of the SSD. I added a favourite entry for another game, and have amended that entry to use with Proxima 3. The entry displays correctly in the MegaAGS menu, but when I select it I get an error: Code:
Unknown command failed returncode 10 Code:
execute "Saves/WHDSaves/MyGames/ReshootProxima3/reshootProxima3" |

I tried with this:
Code:
execute "Saves:WHDSaves/MyGames/ReshootProxima3/reshootProxima3" Code:
Copying Copying %s to %s: to: Error opening destination. rp3.bin: Unknown command rp3.bin failed returncode 10 Code:
Saves:WHDSaves/MyGames/ReshootProxima3/reshootProxima3 Code:

"reshootProxima3" seems to be a script. Check what it does. It may have paths in there that you need to change.

Great game BTW, definitely a recommended purchase. Easily the best STG on the Amiga that manages to avoid all the "Euroshmup" tropes that plague most Amiga games of this genre.

If I want to add an existing WHDLoad pacakage (The Executioner), is the procedure the same as above, but this time put it in Data/WHD/G/E/ ? Do I still need to manually add the entry to MegaAGS by copying an existing entry and adjusting it?
