When I add adfs to my floppy drive slots and 'start' nothing happens from the boot screen. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I'm on an M1 mac. I tried the previous Intel version to no avail. Help!

    It's actually a hardware-based emulator. I have one on the corner of the table, but I won't use it, it's just like a figure to look at. For people who don't own a retro computer, the Amiga Mini is ideal for the living room.

    Very weird... Did just like in the video and now WHDLoad is broken. It just won't do nothing when I doubleclick any game. I had older version WHDLoad installed and just installed new one over it. Edit: this was in WinUAE. Then I moved the CF-card to a real Amiga it says "recoverable alert, click mouse to continue" and then it just works... Edit2: the problem was in the game. :)

    The clown image at 8:25 is not, in fact, displayed using the Amiga's HAM mode. You can see from the palette on the left that it's displayed using 64-colour halfbrite mode. The software helpfully explains that in this video as the image is being loaded. It indicates that the original image was saved in 256 colours. It then tells us it's remapping the colours to 64-colour halfbrite mode - and sure enough, that's what we get! That's the explanation for the noticable dithering.

    so i had to cringe every time you edited the conf file bc either youre supposed to create an entirely new file, rename the old, OR comment out the original code and insert a new line underneath with the value you you want. Definitely good practice to share on youtube with potential coding newbies. its good to teach the habits we want to see in the real world. great video!

I got it running ok except for a couple of things: 1) The WHDLoad game icons appear as a small dot rather than the full size icons of the box art which is odd (clicking that still works though) 2) Double clicking Igame does not do anything... I viewed your igame video which I realise did not use HSTWB to get the install of WB done BUT I added the FPU changes and igame still does not work. No error message produced either - any ideas welcome! Thanks again.

If you use a Gotek you might as well save yourself some space and get a Amiga Mini or Mister FPGA.
