How to load a 6 disk game in Amiga
-
If there is only 4 disk spots how do you load a 5 or 6 disk game?
-
You insert them into drive 0-3 when the game asks for them. Even multi disk games work on a single drive Amiga (Just requires more swapping). Some multidisk games only work on drive 0 anyway.
-
As Buzz says, you'll need to swap them. The 4 slots in the emulator are simulating actual drives on the Amiga (on real hardware that was the maximum you could attach). Bearing in mind this was back before hard drives were readily available and reasonably cheap, my first 2GB(!) hard drive was nearly £200.
Some multidisk Amiga games can also be installed on a hard-drive so could be worth looking into setting up a hard file, installing Workbench (the Amiga's OS) and installing the game on the hardfile. Would save switching disks all the time!
