For those of you who want to run Amiga games under hyperspin:

Need:
1: Whdload amiga games.
2: Winuae loader version 1.73 (http://headsoftware.net/index.php?category=winuaeloader)
3: WinUAE version 2.3

Use Hyperlaunch

Settings:

[exe info]
path=C:\Hyperspin\emulators\Amiga\
rompath=C:\Hyperspin\emulators\Amiga\games\
userompath=false
exe=WinUAELoader.exe
romextension=zip
parameters=
searchsubfolders=
pcgame=false
winstate=HIDDEN
hyperlaunch=true

Add this to the hyperlaunch script:

;**********************************AMIGA********** *************************
else if (systemName = "AMIGA" && executable = "WINUAELOADER.EXE")
{
hideDesktop()
Hotkey, %exitEmulatorKey%, CloseProcess
Run, %executable% -mode whdload -rom "%romPath%%romName%%romExtension%", %emuPath%, UseErrorLevel
process, WaitClose, winuaeloader.exe
}

Change the paths and names to what your setup requires.

Under winuaeloader remap keyboards a and b to your joysticks.
Port 0 should be keyboard B and port 1 should be keyboard A.

You now have the commodore Amiga up and running.

Now who's making the video snaps. :top:

I have a problem getting this to work in hyperspin but it may also be an issue i have with the loader ,after getting the loader working and loading up roms i couldn't get filters or a good fullscreen setup so i changed the emulator/loader cfg to enable filters and fullscreen stretch but after saving the cfg i load up a game via the loader and i seem to be getting the emulator window opening up and then when i click run via emulator the rom loads as expected wih filter and stretch.

If i try to load up via hyperspin all i get is the loader window ,any help would be great
thanks.

I will check my system and see if I made any changes. I believe I setup the loader for fullscreen and other features outside of Hyperspin. Once the settings were saved It ran fine under Hyperspin.

What software do people use to create flv files?

Just to add to this thread. I use winuaeloader and the following bat file which I name "amigalaunch.bat" in the same folder as winuaeloader. I call this bat file from hyperspin.

"amigalaunch.bat" contains:
winuaeloader -whdload -game %1

The "%1" is the parameter passed to it, which is the path and rom name passed to it from hyperspin.

A simple solution, but it works well for me. Hope it helps someone.

I set this up, and it tried to load the game, then says game.slave not found, up in the top of the amiga game screen. On every game I try. Any ideas?

And the Game.slave is the name of the game I am trying to play, like North&South.slave or Turbo.slave ect..

Corrections, My Roms were Double Zipped, Weird.. But the game starts to load, then says Kickstart rom cannot be read. And I have all the Kickstart roms. :(

Any Ideas?
