Amiga emulators i think i looked into this a while back but my incompetance stopped me pretty soon... basically i have loads of old amiga games i downloaded ages ago and would like to play a couple of them. especially 2 games, one called wizkid and the other called fire and ice. are emulators easy to find and use and does anyone have any recommendations, tips, helpful hints? ta muchly
The best is meant to be http://www.winuae.net/ but i've never got it working... but i never tried properly... i'd get that, read the help stuff then look for a few decent forums... or i think GeordieLee knows abit about this..
Amiga's rocked !!!! I mite look into this again like , i got foxed the last time i tried n gave up quite quickly , would love to play xenon 2 megablast n shadow of the beast again like !!!
xenon 2.... the BEST scrolling shoot 'em up, next to r-type EVER! i even bought the 'bomb the bass - way of the dragon' album just for that tune!!!
The best ones to use are WinUAE or WinFellow. They're free to download so just google them. I use both - you'll find that some games will work better on one than the other. You can get games at - http://www.back2roots.org/Games/ - or by just using google. That site also tells you how to set up the emulator so that the game runs at its best. You'll see a 'config' bit alongside every game and this relates to this - http://www.back2roots.org/Docs/Howtos/Configs/ So, for example, if the config for a particular game was 'ecs13' then you'd look at the config page and change the emulators settings to what it says in the ecs13 section. You will need a kickRom to start any emulator and these are not supposed to be freely available. But if u can't find one anywhere, give me a shout. Sorry if this doesn't make much sense but if you get stuck just let me know.
cheers lee, i'll have a pop... im not gonna give up cos amiga was a big part of my childhood! (either tha or ill buy one off ebay! i need to play walker too, that was an awesome game
CLASSIC!! there was one called 'Loom' as well... bit strange... about the only 1 i finished i think!!!!!!!!
