Installation of the Commodore Amiga pack (GameBase 1.6) for HyperSpin:

0 / Download the gamebase pack of Amiga v1.6 named: “Amiga_500 _-_ 1200_up_dax_Poland”, it contains all the games, the emulator and the files necessary for the proper functioning of the module for rocket launcher, I do not provide links, it’s up to you to find it on the net.

1 / Unzip the archive in a temporary location on your hard drive.

2 / Open a window “explorer” then go to the directory “.. \ Amiga 500 – 1200 \ Games \” in the window at the top right there is “search”
type “* .zip” (without the quotes). When all the “* .zip” files are displayed (4543): copy them all and move them to the games directory for Commodore Amiga of your choice.

3 / Copy the emulator and its files from the “Emulators” directory from “.. \ Amiga 500 – 1200 \ Emulators” to the location of your emulators for Hyperspin. The version of the executable “WinUAE.exe” contained in this directory is 2.7, but you can update it by downloading the latest version here: http://www.winuae.net/download/
(In this case replace only the executable file “WinUAE.exe” with the new one)

4 / You can delete the downloaded and decompressed archive during steps 0 / and 1 / (The WHDLoad and SPS games are not currently emulated by this pack)

5 / In the “.. \ Configurations \” folder of the emulator that you copied in step 3 /, edit the “ClassicWB.uae” and “ClassicWB_CD32.uae” files with notepad or any other text editing application. (don’t forget to save your edited files before exiting) , replace the line for the first one:
kickstart_rom_file = G: \ gamebase \ amiga 500 – 1200 \ Emulators \ Kickstart v3.1 rev 40.68 (1993) (Commodore) (A1200) .rom
by :
kickstart_rom_file =. \ Kickstart v3.1 rev 40.68 (1993) (Commodore) (A1200) .rom
And for the second replace the lines:

And the line:
kickstart_ext_rom_file = H: \ gamebase \ amiga 500 – 1200 \ Emulators \ CD32 Extended-ROM rev 40.60 (1993) (Commodore) (CD32) .rom
by :
