@Dwarfboysim Why don't you ask it here ?

I believe the problem is the same as https://github.com/midwan/amiberry/issues/542 I have debugged it and described on the ticket how to fix it so you may not need the workaround soon I hope.

Getting the games to run with just a controller can be a pain. I wrote a detailed tutorial on how to get this working. https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/19302/tutorial-painless-amiga-emulation-using-amiberry/1

@Chuck_B From the original post: "It does not support the .lha files used by Amiberry. See the next reply for a script that can convert .lha files for use in lr-puae.'' "The vast majority of WHDLoad format games out there are in .lha format for Amiberry, not in .hdf format. These will not load." This is because Amiberry-compatible files have been specifically set up to work with that emulator. See https://retropie.org.uk/forum/post/195052 for a script that will convert these .lha files to something that lr-puae can load. Alternatively, use Amiberry for them.

from the gamelist which file is loaded? the .lha archive? And is the .whd in the same folder as the whdload_db.xml located possibly at /opt/retropie/emulators/amiberry/whdboot/

I remember having an issue before with Amiberry and trying to reset the autoboots of my games. If I remember correctly I fixed it by going to: /opt/retropie/configs/amiga/amiberry/whdboot/game-data And deleting the whdload_db.xml file from there (or you could manually go through the entire list and remove the entries you wish to show the bootloader for again). Obviously I would strongly suggest backing up the file first before deleting or editing it! I hope this helps!

Well... this seems to be the temporary fix... finally! Works good for me on the latest build. Just do what the user AnalogHero recommends at the bottom of the thread and it will load as it should. https://github.com/midwan/amiberry/issues/436 JR

@backstander I don't think so. I'm looking for a file that would effect one game only. I suppose I could do it for all games at a push.

Have you got legit ROM files like from Amiga forever and include the rom.key file as well. Also check your kickstart rom oath matches where your rims are and do a re-scan for Roms

@dudleydes Yes, best way for me to proceed is to remove all of the ADF files and replace them with WHDLoads. I experimented yesterday with some new WHDLoad games I found; they all work well. Very nice to see that no disk swapping is needed anymore when playing multi-disk games! That is really nice. Here and there I needed to tweak my controller settings a bit, but that was all easy to solve. Thank you for your time and help and thanks to everybody who puts effort in making Amiberry & WHDLoad such a great experience. Greetings from a former Amiga 2000 owner :-)

@Stuffu Guess that worked, sorry for all the posts, eager and stupid is a bad combo :)

@Dwarfboysim I believe you need to edit the hostprefs.conf file which you can find in /opt/retropie/configs/amiga/amiberry/whdboot. The following links at the Amiberry wiki should offer further guidance: Host Specific Settings WHDLoad Booter FAQ

I have always used 'File Rename Turbo' by Kristanix Software. It allows you to rename most of your files in batch mode easily. Hope it helps!

Try PowerArchiver https://filehippo.com/download_powerarchiver/ Its shareware, but free trial. Might be enough to do what you want I used it years ago and it did exactly what I needed to convert archives. Just installed this version and it will easily convert ZIP to LHA and also as a batch queue
