Help with saving Amiga games.
-
Hi, I'm a bit of a noob but so far things have gone well.
I've been given the task of putting together a Raspberry Pi 3 retro games console. Everything has gone really well so far, all USB controllers/ BT keyboard etc. are working great and all of the consoles required are working just fine. However, the guy I'm doing this for really wants to play old Amiga games, particularly things like Championship Manager 93 (+), The Secret of Monkey Island, and most things from this list... http://www.lemonamiga.com/games/votes_list.php
My problem is with saving games. Using UAE4ALL, The Secret of Monkey Island requires disks in all 4 available drives and when I hit F5 in-game to save, name my save game and OK it says that the game is not saved. I think I'm supposed to have some sort of emulated blank save disk but I have nowhere to put it as the drives are all full. (And I have no idea what I'm doing!)
Can anyone assist or point me in the direction of a simpler method of getting the said games to work within Retropie/ES?
Would I be able to boot Amibian from with Retropie at all?
I need to make it as user friendly as possible for him when I hand it over and trying things like using DOSBOX to emulate some of the games will probably be way to hard for him to get his head around.
Any assistance would be massively appreciated.
