Sim City 2000
I'd love to see a WHDLOAD install for Maxis' Sim City 2000 AGA.

@JuvUK Thanks very much for the link Has anyone noticed by the way when using unrar 3.2 on the miggy to extract the archives, the files extracted don't have the "executeable" bit set on the info tab & therefore fail to run. unrar 3.1 behaves the same too. In the end I took a gamble & used WinRAR into a WinUAE directory. TC |

& why does unrar cause this attribute problem under WinUAE Time to burn the rar files to CD & unrar them on my A1200 i think. Just to confirm the syntax I've been using is unrar x whatever.rar Cheers TC |

Any prospect of a WHDLoad version of Sim City 2000 that combines the patch and minor performance/bug fixes?
I know it can be HD Installed but with the recent arrival of the A500 Mini using WHDLoad as a convenience format along with similar Amiberry implementations it would be pretty nice to see. |

WHDload simulate floppy speed, so when you launch the game you have to wait like if you load from floppy.
From HDD installation it is much more fast to loading the game. So while you waiting loading from WHD, from HDD you are building the city. |
