This is very useful as some Amiga games can come on 10+ disks and thats a hell of alot of disk swapping. OK the fisrt thing you can see is that WinUAE supports up to 4 drives at a time. If you are already runing WinUAE press F12 to bring up the options menu and then press the "Floppies" tab. If you are still at the main options screen click "Floppies" to enter the ADF screen. You can use an ADF file either before or during emulation. DMS files are covered on the Using DMS page. This can squish the ADF file by up to 50% therefore saving alot of space. An ADZ file is a compressed ADF file using a program called GZip. When you download a program from the internet it will normally be stored as an ADF file, however there are two other file formats that you might get which are ADZ and DMS. The Amiga used special disks that aren't compatible with PC drives therefore for WinUAE to support floppies they needed to be converted into a file format.ĪDF files are copies of Amiga disks in a file and are always 880k which is the size of Amiga disks. All games and applications were also supplied on floppy disk (often several) but there is a problem. The Amiga being a computer primarily used floppy disks to store it' s data on.
