Title: WinUAE Config Creator v1.0
Post by: headkaze on March 28, 2006, 04:10:09 pm
UAE Config Creator v1.0 - By Headkaze
=====================================

Made for TOSEC collection...

This program will take a collection of ROMs and create uae configuration files for them based on a single uae config file. It will attempt to place disk series into floppy0 to floppy4 and in disk swapper. Press END+1-0 to swap disks in emulator.

Strange things happen in WinUAE, it seems to cut off long file names of adf files in the floppy drives. Must be a bug.

The program detects multiple disks by removing file characters after the first "(". This is how it matches file names. Most of the TOSEC collection works this way.

-------------------------------

Quick instructions to how this works:

1. Create a config file in UAE with the setup you want and save
2. Edit the uae config file in a text editor and add [WinUAE] to the start of the file
3. Use my program to point to your config file, ROM directory and output directory
4. Select "GO" button

--------------------------------
!!!PLEASE NOTE!!! You must add [WinUAE] to the start of the config file! This is because I use standard Ini file functions to write the ini files.

Mine handles multiple spanned disks, jcrouse's dosn't. In other words if you have to insert a second disk you have to go back into the config to mount the extra disk(s). Mine also places the first 4 disks into the first 4 floppies.
