Once you've done all that, all the other settings can be adjusted just as you would for any other game in Amiga Forever, things like the name, memory, input etc. Click Okay, then once that's closed click the Add button again, again set Type to "Directory", and this time add the folder where you unzipped the game to. (There's probably a better alternative to this step, but if you don't do it you'll get the "Insert volume - Work" error message when you run the game) Underneath that (where it now says Directory), click the three dots and find "~/Amiga Files/Shared/dir/Work", depending on where on your computer the Amiga Files folder is. Under the Disks box, click Add, then in the screen that comes up set Type (at the top) to "Directory" In the Built In box, set Boot to "Workbench 3.X (shared directory)" Then go to the Media tab (you'll see DH0: Built in WHDLoad present in the disks box) Go to the Configuration tab and in the System box set Model to "WHDLoad" Then, open Amiga Forever, and select New from the File menu, to create a new RP9 file. Unzip that into a folder of your choice on your PC's hard drive (if it's in LHA format you'll need something like 7-zip to unzip it) First, you'll need the pre-installed WHDLoad version of the game you want, such as you'll find here. It's just how I did it and it works, so here goes. Note that this is something I discovered largely through trial and error rather than through any real understanding of how this actually works, as such it may not be the best or simplest way of doing it. This is on Amiga Forever 7 as well, the latest one, not sure how well it'll work on earlier versions I've been playing around with it though and managed to get it working, and since I know other people have asked about this in the past I'll tell you how I did it. So I've gone back to the emulator I started out with, Amiga Forever and realised it also has built in WHDLoad support, it's just a pain to actually get working, especially using Amiga Forever's RP9 format. Okay, so annoyingly my laptop died a few weeks ago and the replacement's on board graphics setup isn't compatible with OpenGL in Windows 10, which means also annoyingly I can no longer use FS-UAE, which I liked because of its built in WHDLoad support.
