Could someone help me convert one childhood game from .ADF to WHDLoad please?
We had Amiga 500's at our school when growing up, some great memory's
One educational game called 'Discovery - Math Version' , Your in this space ship and have to solve math problems (there was a spelling ver also) it had three characters and was pretty fun. I cant seem to find a WHDLoad ver anywhere. Could someone help me out please! would be very nostalgic to play again. I attached the file , im 99% sure its abandonware Thanks |

For classic full educational game (Grammar, Spelling, Maths, Geography, Learning, English, etc) there are not WHD Installer. Some of this games have their installer for HDD. Not all of course.
WHD games in this genre i found only in french versions. English or other language not VHD versions. |

Just checked the binary in a textviewer (MMPP, MuchMorePowerPack). It seems some of the files are hardloaded to df0: and df1:, I guess you could use a hexeditor and modify those from df0:/df1: to DiM: and then use assign to point that to your HD folder. Also you need 'translator.library' that got ditched after Kick20+.
What Amiga are you running this on? Where abouts are you in Kiwi Land? There's a few of us here, Bruce Abbot and Earok are the more serious/technical users. Codetapper is still stuck in the Auckland traffic I'm guessing. |

According to the file on the floppy there's 4 characters
Update: On WinUAE with an A500 quickstart this loads and runs ok for the game. The Demo needs a Demo: assign Last edited by davideo; 09 October 2021 at 01:43. Reason: Updated |
