@buzz That looks fairly involved, thanks I'll stick with it.

@indyviduum It does a CRC check and a name check to see if it matches one of its known configurations. Otherwise it just uses its default profile.

@nemo93 Many thanks for the reply. I found the site I was using has 'empty' WHDLoad. I switched to another source (I won't post it here), but now working fine. Many thanks.

Thanks for troubleshooting this

I don't think this is documented anywhere, perhaps it should be.

I think that's what's implied by

To update WHDLoad: simply delete the directory or the HDF file

but I agree is not that intuitive and most of the time users will start the emulator without the BIOS files, so the document may need some details.

@yserra
ok the files are a bit tedious, but i'm happy about it, precisely because of the configuration with mouse and joypad.

the only one thing i can't running are cd32.lha games

@stevecrawf0rd those files found on whdload.de are just installers, you need to find another source for the actual games. These games are the ones you should put in the amiga folder.

Thanks for the useful update @rkoster, I wasn't aware of those changes.
The .lha files run under Retroarch for windows as well without problems!

@officerdibble

I found that by editing the config.txt file that corrects it.

I used sudo nano /boot/config.txt and removed the # in front of disable_overscan=1 to enable it.

Some zips work perfectly, others have to be disk swapped, and some don't work at all.

So just stick to WHD load .lha games that contain the full set of disk files.

In general, I have no idea what it was, but ... I once again updated the retropie setup script, and once again uninstalled and installed amiberry from the sources. And (magic) everything finally worked as it should ... amazing (sarcasm)

@BuZz thank you.

BuZz can you also take a look at the "general" thread of Amiberry?
I'm finding that games runs a little faster then normal, I made a video about that. If you want I can make more of them. Thanks.

I just noticed the lha I am using is only 58k and could no way contain a game. It wasn't a problem with the Kickstarts, it was the lha. I switched to a good lha and the game is loading!

Have a look at this Topic, this might help:

I had the same problem and solved it the way you can see in the last 2 posts.

@Dwarfboysim Why don't you ask it here ?
