Unbelievable - December already!  This month, a random game from the wonderful Amiga Game Selector - Future Tank!  Good luck!

New to GOTHEM - One game to rule them all!  No more OCS/ECS/AGA mixup - just play on any Amiga or emulator!  Have fun!  This month, Sneech!  No idea what this is but came up in a random Amiga search.  Enjoy!

WHDload games working under 1.3
« on: February 09, 2020, 09:21:23 pm »
Hi all,

I wanted to mention that this weekend that I worked out that you can play whdload games under Workbench 1.3, something I thought you couldn’t do!

Using the latest version of JST in c: you can launch whdload games on Workbench 1.3 - I tested it on my Amiga 1000 with ACA500 booting 1.3 workbench from cf card and it works perfectly!

Get latest JST from here:

https://jotd.pagesperso-orange.fr/amiga.html

You need the a500 kickstart in devs/kickstarts as well.

Launch games by typing

JST gamename.slave

So awesome - I wanted to share it.

Catcha,
Epsilon

This is pretty awesome.

Could be a reason to actually try out 1.3 on my 3k
