headkaze: Any chance ......

Any chance you could make your UAE Configuration file work with ZIP files, since WinUAE supports ZIP files now .....  I tried using the UAE Configuration file with all ZIP files and nothing happened, so I am assuming your application only works with ADF files as input rather than ZIP.

Hey unclet, I posted the source on another thread! Your a coder no? Why not take over the source and write something better. I really don't have the time to work on it anymore sorry.

Although its just a 3 letter change in the code, I would guess you could quickly do a:

rename *.zip *.adf

Run the config tool.

Then, rename *.adf *.zip

which would work (assuming you ONLY have zipped adf's in one directory). As its just reading the filenames....

I figured the size difference is really not a problem since most Amiga games a quite small.    Unzipping them all at once was really no big deal either.    I already generate all the UAE files I need and I am learning that the whole Amiga experience is just not worth the effort .... as you have read in my other post at BYOAC.

Anyway, I really do appreciate headkaze's tool ..... I would never have spent the time configuring the games one at a time ..... just too many of them to do .....
