      Evening all

      Im kinda confused on something i cant seem to figure out how to load the second disk in Uae4arm
      I was playing a game it told me to load disk 2 So what i did was went to floppy clicked on the second line because the first is disk 1 then i insert disk 2 press resume and it doesnt work!!
      It still asks me for disk 2...
      I even tried ejecting it first i also tried loading up all the floppy parts in a row when starting a game that didnt work..
      So im not sure now what am i doing wrong

        @retrofreak89 try putting it in the first drive. Not all games support multiple drives.

          there is a naming convention on the github of retropie which explains multiple disks. I think you have to name them disk 1 of 2 etc etc. and I'm almost certain it then loads them up automatically.

              If you are willing to change your chosen emulator to Amiberry and do a bit more setup for WHDload, you can really streamline the Amiga disk loading process. Among other things, it takes games that require multiple disks and compresses them down into single files. Then you don't have to worry about swapping disks anymore. It's not hard to set up by any means, and it's highly recommended if you play alot of Amiga.
