How to play "recent" Amiga games in FSUAE
Hello community and thanks for having me.
I am enjoying FSUAE a lot. I got a bunch of "new" games on ADF, LHA and WHD from circa 1996-present, including a bunch from Itch.io. FSUAE won't recognize them in my hard drive scans. Can I launch them directly in the application? How do I do that? cheers, lord_snoodles |

Create a new new config, select the game, set the config and save. I'll post a video in 3 hours for you to follow as it is easy.
I presume you have the required Kickstarts etc? |

In your video you showed to pick 1MB RAM chip. Is that the general way to go? Any insight as to how to adjust depending on the game? Can I go wrong setting it to max chip RAM? I started up Teenagent with an emulated 1200 and it seems to be going great!

That was a quick demonstration.
For some games you'll need a bit of trial and error as some games with A1200 settings will run way too fast. Alternatively you could look to download DamienD's pre-configured WinUAE packs as that has 4000 games now I like how easy it is to use FSUAE but now it's not updated anymore I may switch in the future |

I will look into Damien's packs, that's a good tip. I put a bunch of energy curating a tight list of what to play but I can use it as a way to pull out the stuff I really want for WINUAE on my PC. I generally find WINUAE too bewildering for me even with tutorials, but idiot-proof pre-setup files (?) will be great.
Now, if you don't mind me asking, what do I do with LHA or WHD files not in the database on FSUAE? I tried your guide with substituting those, but it didn't work. |

The Whd files you'd add via the hard drive tab. The same with the lha, but some of these you may need a workbench disk to run too. |

ops, i'm sorry, i didn't understand the topic request.
i suggested to use GameBase Amiga 2.3 that is pre-configured for idiot-proof pre-setup, but he want to play "recent" games so maybe very difficult for newbie Last edited by Seiya; 17 June 2024 at 04:10. Reason: wrong answer |

I likely have virtual Workbench disks. Would you please tell me what I'm looking for? Years ago i downloaded what I think is the whole enchilada of kickstarts, Amiga Forever disks, etc... and I think I have a 6-disk Workbench file, but then i'm unsure how to use it in this context of loading LHAs on FSUAE. Cheers!
