WHDload - Is there something I'm not doing?

[stevecrawf0rd]

Hi all,

I'm brand new to this Pi arena so please excuse me if the below is just plain dumb.

I've recently purchased a 400 and running RetroPie to play predominantly Amiga games through Amiberry.

I started off trying to games from whdload.de by downloading and dropping them straight into the ROMs folder. This resulted in just a black screen after the Amiberry logo upon attempting to load them up.

I found this was possibly due to the fact that the LHA files are rather installers and not working games (please correct me if I'm wrong).

Can someone tell me how I would install these on the Pi?... if that's even what need to do!

There's a lot of guidance out there but also - as the updates to the Pi seem to come thick and fast (thanks devs) a lot of what's out there is/might be outdated so a little scared of breaking something I'm trying to fix!

Thanks for all your help!

@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.
