Wasn't sure if I should put this in Support Games, Amiga Scene or Support Amiga Forever. Anyway this took me over an hour and should help those wanting to get these awesome AGA editions working through Amiga Forever |

the fonts have not been installed at the right place, hence the bizarre font for the characters name

You don't actually have to install the fonts/libs - just do an 'assign ADD libs: <path to westwood.library>' and 'assign ADD fonts: <path to the fonts>'
I added those to my user-startup and it works great. |

I made a bootable HDF to load both games and I have found that I need UAEGFX (rtg.library, devs:picasso96) in the monitors drawer for a decent character screen otherwise the characters are pixelated.
Booting from a Worbench 3.1 disk or plain 3.1 HD gives the same results. Can anyone suggest a better solution or is that just needed for this fix? Last edited by TCD; 09 January 2016 at 15:03. Reason: added [noparse] tags |

@Arnie can you upload the hdf?
@Neil will the name font be fixed or is that what it is? |

Hi Ransom,
The problem with this HDF is the fact that it needs WHDLoad installed (plus the kickstart files). It also needs PeterK's icon.library or a working UAE/Picasso GFX to get the icons and character images to display correctly. Add also multiview and the datatypes for the docs, and you have nearly a full WB install. Although I have the HDF set up for this I can't upload it as it contains too much copyrighted material (WB, kickstart files) |

I'm running both on 3.x. Made add assigns. Works great. Really missed playing those games.
